Then Sharon will admit to Victor that the three of them do not work well together. “Every time we make some progress together, something happens that blows it all up,” she’ll say. So, she’ll tell Victor she wants out. “Your plan was to strip it down anyway.” Victor will remind her it’s just business. But Sharon will say SNA would become a cog in the Newman machine, which is not what she signed up for. “Please let me take Kirsten and I’ll run it on my own.”

However, Victor will refuse. “I am not just going to roll over and let you decide what this company should be,” Sharon will tell Victor. She’ll also say she’s going to get an attorney and fight him. “What is the matter with you?” Nick will ask Victor, after Sharon leaves. “She protected your granddaughter with her own life, that’s the only way she got this company in the first place, and now you turn around and do this?”

He’ll ask Victor to tell them what the plan is, just as Nikki arrives. Victor will ask her what she thinks of the brothers working together. “You are one of the most ungrateful people I have ever known,” she’ll say to Adam, adding he acts like he’s entitled to everything. “Grow the hell up Adam.” And she’ll tell Nick if he doesn’t like the way things are going, he needs to stop complaining and do something about it.

After Adam leaves, Nikki and Nick will tell Victor they need to think about the positions he’s offered them, although Nick will encourage Nikki to take the CEO job. Then he’ll head to Crimson Lights, as Sharon’s leaving a voice mail for Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc). She’ll tell Nick she’s not backing down and Nick will tell her Victor fired Adam.
