What? You thought when Nikki Chow told Paul
'Clueless' Williams to stop investigating her
husband that Williams would actually listen? What
else does he have to do but perform pro bono work
for the wealthy?
How many years will this case drag on before
Williams walks away having solved nothing because on
his worst day David Chow can outsmart the city's
dumbest private eye with one hand tied behind him
and the other placing a bet with his bookie? Who
wants to bet it'll be Victor Newman who takes Mr.
Chow down?
And what of Nikki doing an Internet search today?
Was she looking for information on David's former
wives? David himself? Are there old newspaper
clippings of David's former wives dying under
mysterious circumstances? Is David on file somewhere
as the gambling world's biggest loser? Would Las
Vegas close its doors if not for David? She found
something that seemed to give her cold chills, but I
can only guess it was that video of her stripping
days still floating around on YouTube.
Needing money to place another bet, would you be
shocked to learn that David pawned the fancy watch
Nikki gave him? No, not at the local pawn shop,
David arranged to have some guy meet in the Jabot
parking lot to make the exchange which David says
he'll buy back in a few days. It's not so much that
David would make the deal in a friggin' parking lot,
the one at Jabot of all places given what has
happened there in the past, it's that when Nikki
asked why he wasn't wearing the watch, David said he
scratched it while working out at the AC gym.
Even I, a lowly peasant still wearing an old Citizen
watch not worth more than $100, don't wear it at the
gym! Cheap as it is, my watch has a scratch
resistant face, and banged around over the years
doesn't have a scratch on it. So either Nikki gave
him a Timex, or she's dumb if she doesn't know that
watches like the one she paid a bundle for are
scratch proof! And she bought David's story that he
sent it to the manufacturer for repair?
Oh well, Nikki was somewhat distracted at the time.
She saw Victor Newman and Sabrina Casterfate dining
at the same restaurant when she and David eat and
you know how that is when people keep running into
those they'd rather not see. Upset that his children
aren't showing him any respect, pissed that Victoria
Hellstrom is being such a bitch, Victor flew into a
rage. Is Nikki turning the children against him?
How many times do we have to ask? Why would Victor
give a rip about his diaper-wearing adult kids? If
they don't want to attend his wedding, more cake for
him! And what's up with Sabrina? This woman is
starting to creep me out. Asking J.T. if he really
wants his son to be estranged from his grandfather?
Christ! Reed Hellstrom is a baby! He doesn't know
Victor from, um, Adam! So what's Reed gonna do? Hold
a grudge all his life that he didn't get to know
Victor? Hell, Victor is Abby Carlton's biological
father, and Abby doesn't seem to mind not knowing
daddy that well, or her other daddy, Brad Carlton.
