Now that Victoria has called a family meeting to advise the Newmans she’s stepping down as CEO and is cutting off ties, Victor knows he has to do something drastic! Victoria has already said she’s reconciling with her husband and there is nothing he could say or do to stop her, so he strategizes with Michael to formulate a plan. They decide to set Locke up with a situation he cannot get out of, and if necessary frame him for a crime!
Victor is desperate to keep his daughter from Locke, and Locke from her – and one way to enforce it is with a prison sentence!! If they can’t catch him in a real crime they might invent one and plant evidence!
Victor notes that Jesse Gaines, Jr. (Jameson Jones) disappeared without a trace after Ashland and Victoria’s wedding; he had stowed away in the luggage department of a plane and returned. He made it back to Genoa City but has never been heard from again, and he had big secrets to reveal about Ashland Locke. Between the Newmans themselves and Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) they know what the secrets were, regarding Bobby DeFranco alias Ashland Locke changing Camilla Rhodes’ (uncast character) will. Victor brainstorms with Michael as to if he can find Gaines – if he cannot, perhaps Ashland Locke killed him; Michael verifies he wasn’t in Peru and wouldn’t be surprised.
Fraud for faking a medical diagnosis wouldn’t be enough to put Locke away for life, they’d have to charge him with murder and that’s hard to do with no body. Longtime viewers will remember Michael’s always had a sneaky side, and he hasn’t always been the good guy he’s tried to be in moe recent years. Another questionable mission for Victor could put Michael in the doghouse with Laruen Baldwin (Tracey E. Bregman) again, however, and she’ll get a bad feeling about this new scheme.
Lauren will give Michael the third degree about this new project Michael is working on but he’ll keep the details secret. No doubt she will be frustrated that Victor’s roped him into something potentially dangerous again, and he’s let him!
Michael will relish an opportunity to get revenge on Ashland for his false imprisonment in Peru, which he was very lucky to escape from! Michael and Victor may hope that they can catch Locke in a real crime for which he is guilty, but if not, they’ll find something they can frame him for! There’s no guarantee, of course, that the frame will stick or that it will even work. They may have to set a trap for him to commit something illegal and hope he’ll take the bait, and then let the law swoop in!
