scheme. Last week, an emotionally shattered Ashley finally committed
herself to a psychiatric hospital for treatment. Adam fears that Ashley
will finally learn that she is not really pregnant, and comes up with a
plan to cover her miscarriage. Unfortunately, it includes an
unsuspecting – and pregnant – Sharon. While Ashley is getting settled
in her new digs, Sharon is having mild contractions in her own room.
Adam summons Dr. Taylor to the hospital. After Dr. Taylor examines
Ashley and convinces her that the baby is fine, a nurse appears and asks
the baby doc to assist another patient who has gone into labor. Ashley
urges Dr. Taylor to help the woman. After he leaves, Ashley is
comforted by Adam. Sharon’s water breaks as Dr. Taylor shows up to
offer assistance. Dr. Taylor walks out to call an ambulance and runs
into Adam, who informs him that Ashley believes that she is also going
into labor. Adam – who spotted Sharon in labor – orders the physician
not to call for an ambulance and to deliver Sharon’s baby. Adam returns
to Ashley with the news that the hospital is in lockdown and Adam gives
Ashley some medication to get her to pass out. Meanwhile, Dr. Taylor is
tending to Sharon. With no other options available, Dr. Taylor delivers
Sharon’s baby girl, already named Faith. Sharon passes out because she
is delirious and exhausted. Across the hall, Ashley wakes up and
becomes hysterical when Adam announces that she gave birth, but a nurse
took the baby away. Ashley gets up and says that she is going to see if
she had a baby, but Adam says that he will go get the baby for her. A
fast-thinking Adam rushes over to Sharon’s room, where Dr. Taylor is
holding her infant in his arms. Adam takes Sharon’s baby and presents
Ashley’s baby to her. An unconscious Sharon is rushed to Genoa City

Nick shows up at the hospital and one look at Sharon’s face makes him
realize that something is very wrong. The grieving parents ask to see
their child, but Dr. Taylor tells them that they shouldn’t do that
because of the deformities. The doctor suggests that they do the
cremation immediately and Sharon agrees without ever seeing her baby.

labor too. Adam rushes to tell Dr. Taylor, when he spots Sharon
in her room amid contractions. Adam tells Dr. Taylor not to
call an ambulance and to deliver Sharon’s baby there. Adam sets

Desperate Hours! The clock is ticking away for Victor, so where’s
Nikki? As last week came to a close, Patty had her gun trained on Jack and
Victor, as she decided which one she should shoot. When Patty turns the gun
on Jack and Victor, Jack is forced to stop performing CPR on Colleen. Even
though she is breathing on her own at this point, she is still in grave
danger and needs medical attention immediately. Patty’s emotional distress
reaches a fever point and it looks like Jack is about to be her next victim,
but Victor takes action. Victor suddenly draws her attention away from Jack
and she shoots Victor. He gets hit in the stomach and the chest. Patty is
horrified by what happened and Jack calls 911. JT and Paul arrive moments
later and frantically try to assist Jack with Victor and Colleen. The
paramedics arrive and the victims are rushed to the hospital. The Abbotts
and Newmans are notified and anxiously wait at Genoa City Memorial for their
injured loved ones to be brought in. Meanwhile, Paul realizes that Patty is
an extreme threat. The ambulance arrives with Victor and Colleen, and they
are wheeled past their worried family members. Later, a doctor announces
that Colleen is no longer breathing on her own and that the outlook for
Victor’s survival isn’t so rosy either. For now, Jack decides not to call
Ashley with the dire news. Victoria and Nick enter their father’s room,
where Victor lies unconscious. While his children apologize for attacking
him earlier about Patty. Victor opens his eyes. Victoria and Nick are
hopeful until they learn that there are bullet fragments in Victor’s heart
and he needs life-saving surgery immediately. But first, Victor tells
Victoria that he wants Nikki to know that he still loves her. After Victor
is taken to the operating room, Nick and Victoria realize that they need to
find Nikki as soon as possible. When Paul arrives, Victoria asks him to
find Nikki and bring her to Victor. Despite the fact that Nikki dumped Paul
the night before their wedding, he magnanimously agrees. The PI later
receives a text message from someone who claims to have seen Nikki the night
she supposedly disappeared. Billy finally contacts Ashley and reveals that
not only has Victor been shot, but he also saved Jack’s life. After Ashley
arrives at the hospital with Adam in tow, Jack announces to Abby, Nick, JT
and Victoria that Colleen is brain dead. Everyone is devastated, but Jack
becomes enraged when a doctor announces that Victor is going to be fine.
The grief-stricken Jack has to be physically restrained as he screams that
Victor, not Colleen, should be dead. Ashley finally enters Victor’s room,
but retreats when he whispers Nikki’s name. Victor learns about Colleen’s
condition and is hit hard. Meanwhile, Paul is following a lead on Nikki,
which brings him to an exclusive spa in the Rocky Mountains. He knocks on
the door of a room and is relieved when Nikki answers. Nikki is shocked to
see him there, but senses that something is seriously wrong. Paul tells
Nikki that Victor was shot and that Mary Jane Benson is really his sister,
Patty, and that she was responsible. It doesn’t take long for Nikki to put
the pieces together and realize Victor’s involvement. When Paul mentions
that everyone has been worried about her, Nikki counters that she sent many
letters to the ranch for Victor and their kids giving her whereabouts. Paul
tells her that no one has seen these letters and they wonder where they went
– or who intercepted them. At the hospital, Ashley returns to Victor’s room
so they can face the reality of their rocky marriage. As Ashley is further
explaining the reasons that she has to leave, Victor goes into cardiac
arrest. The doctors burst in just as Adam, Victoria and Nick join Ashley.
At that moment Nick gets a call from his mother, who is checking on Victor’s
status. It doesn’t sound good, so Nikki drops the phone and immediately
starts packing. Nikki tells Paul that she has to get to Victor before it’s
too late!
