Kyle’s Ready to Serve Revenge à la Carte
Kyle returns home to find Diane’s suitcase collection could qualify for its own zip code. But never mind Mom’s fashion emergency—Kyle’s got gossip. Audra’s concocted a perfume showdown in Nice that sounds like a cross between Project Runway and Spy vs. Spy. The twist? A mysterious mogul will pick between Vibrante and Jabot, with one scent to rule them all. Jack and Diane admit, begrudgingly, that the idea’s got flair. Kyle? He’s not just watching—he’s plotting. He may not be Audra’s plus-one, but make no mistake: he’s flying in hot.
Meanwhile, Audra’s at the club, pitching her scent-studded PR circus to Nate. He’s not quite buying that a recluse like Aristotle Dumas just happened to invite her. Smells fishy.
Victor Smells a Rat, Chelsea Smells a Setup
Victor gets dragged to Crimson Lights by Chelsea, who’s got a bomb to drop: she thinks she knows who Aristotle Dumas really is. Victor listens like a man who already knows the ending and is just letting her finish her monologue. Her guess? Tucker McCall. Victor’s reaction? A smug chuckle and a one-way ticket to “Try Again, Sweetheart.” He’s got proof Tucker’s still locked up in India, but he’s oddly impressed with her detective work.
Back at the ranch, Nikki’s low-key panicking about what Dumas might be planning, but Victor’s already prepped for battle. He’s seen worse. Chelsea wants to help but doesn’t want to give away her insight for free. Victor sees right through her. You don’t get to outmaneuver the mustache.
Nick Turns on the Charm, Sharon Packs the Bags
Nick’s making another play to get Sharon to join him in France—because romance and world-class perfume drama just go better together. Sharon’s hesitant. Family first, right? Not if Mariah has anything to say about it. She practically packs the bags herself while assuring Sharon that she and Tessa are back in a talking phase. Nick throws in some soft-eyed encouragement, and voila, Sharon finally agrees. Off she goes, leaving Mariah smiling on the outside and worried on the inside.
Oh, and Nick? He’s not denying that he and Sharon are vibing again. Mariah’s supportive but also wouldn’t mind a little space from her hovering mom. Still, the love is real—and Nick gets a hug that says, “We’re good.”
Jack and Diane Smell Sabotage—and It’s Not the Perfume
Jack and Diane are putting the puzzle together faster than a Newman at a press conference. They suspect Victor’s using Audra to play Kyle like a fiddle, with the goal of humiliating him in front of Claire and the industry. Audra might’ve overplayed her seductive hand, though. Diane’s worried her son’s being lured into a trap where brains, ambition, and cleavage are equally weaponized. Jack’s confident Kyle won’t falter—especially with both parents watching like hawks from the sidelines. He’s got one mission: take down Victor’s puppet and reclaim his crown.
Kyle lets them know Claire’s totally on board with him jetting off to France. She gave the green light, and now it’s personal. He wants to look Victor and Audra in the eye when they lose.
Audra and Nate Share a Kiss—and a Warning
Audra’s ready for takeoff but not before a smoochy little sendoff with Nate. He’s still suspicious, rightfully so, warning her that Dumas could be playing a dangerous game. Is this a perfume war or corporate warfare? Either way, he wants in. He offers to go with her to France. Audra’s not opposed but reminds him she’ll be busier than a barista during pumpkin spice season. Nate has things to juggle too—like Winters, Amy, and an entire music festival lineup—but somehow, he finds time for a steamy goodbye upstairs.
As she heads out, Nate begs her to stay out of trouble. Audra, flashing that “I’m totally not dangerous” smile, gets a ping on her phone. Surprise—it’s Kyle. “See you in France,” he texts. Looks like this battle of brains, beauty, and betrayal is just getting started.
Final Move, Game On
Victor returns to the ranch to confirm Chelsea couldn’t sweet-talk him out of going after Billy. She tried. She failed. And now, it’s game time. The perfume showdown is heating up, the power plays are getting sharper, and the Newman chessboard is lit. Soap Opera Reviews brings you daily spoilers and recaps so you never miss a thing.
