Nick’s alarming message and the escalating LA crisis

Nick and Sharon have been urgently searching for Noah ever since he was kidnapped, following scary clues that led them into Matt Clark’s dangerous world. Their search has already put them at risk, and on Tuesday, Nick sends a worrying message that shows just how serious things are. As the danger grows, they move closer to a trap that could give Matt even more power.

Victor receives an SOS and prepares for a dangerous confrontation

Victor has become more and more worried as he gets updates from Los Angeles about how serious Noah’s disappearance really is. The Newmans have faced many problems before, but the danger from Matt, who is now using the name “Mitch Bacall,” feels especially personal.

As soon as Victor gets Nick’s urgent SOS, he immediately takes an emergency flight to LA, ready to take charge and face the man behind it all.

Jack’s bold shutdown plan gains Abbott family approval

The Abbott family has been dealing with heavy pressure because of Victor’s aggressive AI tactics meant to damage Jabot. After weeks of problems, Jack suggested a bold plan, shutting Jabot down for a while to protect the company and stay ahead of Victor. In this episode, that plan finally comes together.

Ashley and Traci, who were unsure at first, decide to support Jack along with the rest of the family. With everyone on the same page, Jack moves forward with a shutdown that could seriously change things for the company.

The Abbotts brace for the fallout of Jack’s decision

This situation has forced the Abbotts to defend themselves, and Jack’s plan is their boldest move so far. By shutting things down for several months, Jack hopes to block Victor’s access and stop the AI from causing more harm. Even though this choice will affect business, confidence, and future earnings, Jack believes it’s the only way to protect Jabot long-term and the best chance to outsmart Victor.

But Nate still says no, leaving Audra upset and disappointed.

Nate’s rejection sparks Audra’s anger
