[12.02.08] Billy at The Jabot shareholder meeting II

The Jabot shareholder meeting will be at the Club, where Jill and Cane meet, and she says that the stockholders are very nervous - she wants Cane and Billy right by her side! Chloe asks where Billy is, and Jill replies that he is with Lily - they are trying to take Ana away from Tyra. Cane rushes out. Jill is irked, but more so, when Gloria and Jeff arrive. When she sees Jack appear as well, she remarks that she should have hired a bouncer! Jill is suspicious when Jack says he wouldn't miss this meeting for the world! Jill reminds him that he can't participate, and he walks away, saying into his cell phone, "Where are you, kid? We're about to make history!"

At Neil's place, the family, Olivia and Billy are meeting with Rafe, the lawyer. Tyra is upset that Ana may not know they are fighting for her. Rafe tells them to be prepared for this to drag out! Tyra tells a story of how Yolanda abandoned Ana in the cold one day. Ana reached out to her and called her 'mama' and that's what she's been ever since that day! Rafe says he's challenged the decision to put her in foster care, but they have to wait for a court date. Tyra is upset that she may have to have a supervised visit with Ana. Just then, Cane arrives at the door. He offers to be a witness if they need one, and Tyra expresses thanks. Devon says that he needn't stay. Lily walks Cane to the door and Billy asks how the shareholder meeting went. Cane says it's about to begin, and Lily encourages Billy to go.

Back at Neil's house, Olivia asks Lily how she is doing getting over Cane. Lily says it's been difficult, and Liv points out that Billy's been watching her - he's Cane's brother, and that's a problem! Lily says they're just friends. Olivia then notices Karen, who asks if she's being paranoid about how dependent Tyra is on Neil. Olivia thinks back to her last conversation with Neil, where she suggested that he not marry Karen!
Suddenly, Lily realizes that Billy left his phone behind. She leaves to take it to him. Just then, Rafe announces they will see Ana at Crimson Lights right now!

Kevin has arrived at the Club and is sitting down with Gloria. She tells him not to worry about anything - he will get everything he's been promised. Kevin is unsure about Jeff and Jack. Nearby, Jack tells Jeff that the transition will be seamless. Jill tells Nikki that she thinks Katherine should have left her the ring, but it's way down her list of priorities. She tells her to get a life! Nikki approaches Jack and accuses him of framing Victor for murder. Jack smirks, "Let 'er rip!" But Nikki doesn't say much. Jack is surprised that she's let things go with 'the Mustache'. She suggests he try it sometime! Jill asks Chloe if she's heard from Cane. Chloe tells her that she'll do great regardless.

Brad arrives at the Jabot stockholder meeting, and Jill notes wryly that the crowd just gets more interesting. Brad tells her that the shareholders barely bought the 'Aussie on training wheels' before, and now that Kay's gone - her regime is going to be a hard sell! Chloe is off to the side of the room calling Cane and telling him to get himself back there! Just then, Colleen comes in. They exchange barbs. Nikki and Esther blow in and confront Jill - they'll be leaving once Jill returns Katherine's ring to her!

Just then, Cane arrives, he tells Chloe about Ana being in foster care. Chloe asks what role Billy played - Cane says he was saving the day! Jill spots Billy walking in and says she is so glad they're both there! Billy looks uncomfortable and Jack gives him a knowing look across the room!

Sitting down at the shareholder meeting, Colleen asks Brad if he really wants to be there - they all treat him so badly. Nearby, Jack warns Billy that it's no time for cold feet - they're doing this for Dad! Jill calls the meeting to order, first remembering Katherine. As Nikki begins to leave, Jack whispers that she might want to stick around, but Nikki says she can't watch Jill takeover for Katherine.

As Jill begins to talk, Gloria interrupts and says that as of today, there will be new leadership at Jabot - and it will no longer be the Chancellors! She explains that the majority share has shifted back to John Abbott's children. Jill stares at Jack as Gloria continues to talk. Brad smirks. Jill lunges forward as Gloria announces that Jill and Cane will be cleared out of the building by the end of the week. Jill says she won't let her takeover, but Billy stands and interrupts. As Lily walks in, he announces that he is William Abbott, and he will be running Jabot! Jill, Gloria and Cane are stunned!

I loved how the scene played out. First Gloria, then Billy and of course Ashley Abbott comes in and takes charge. The best takeover story I have seen in a very long time. Go Abbott Family

it was nice to see good business drama again, instead of ridiculous plots and infidelity...

[loveangel20]

What a great scene! I miss Brad and Colleen!! It's a shame that I love watching this and yet I ignore the new episodes of Y&R. Geesh, MAB went from great to horrible in a year!! What a shame....

@96xohels Y&R background music is killer!!!!!!!!!

@LHouston84 Do you feel the same way about Y&R now with all the dark plots such as Patty/Emily, Sarah/Lauren, and Adam's murder?

[LHouston84]
