>> Nikki: It's just perfect.
I never would have believed it,
but this house is on
an even more beautiful part
of the property than
our other one.
>> Victor: I'm glad
you think so.
>> Nikki: The views from
the upstairs windows
are magnificent.
I can see the horses
in the pasture.
>> Victor: Yes, I did that with
you in mind.
>> Nikki: Oh, I just can't
believe all the detail
you put into it.
All of the time and effort.
Now, tell me,
how did you manage to pull this
off without me knowing?
[ Victor chuckling ]
>> Victor: A lot of
careful planning.
Once or twice I was worried
you might catch on.
[ Nikki gasping ]
>> Nikki: Those trucks.
>> Victor: Yeah?
>> Nikki: Those trucks that were
here for so long.
You said they were fixing
erosion from the stream.
>> Victor: Well, maybe
they were.
Maybe they were, you know.
>> Nikki: Oh.
>> Victor: Do you know that
we had to do all kinds of things
to make sure you wouldn't
discover what we were doing?
>> Nikki: Well, it was worth it.
I mean, this is a perfect blend
of the past and present.
>> Victor: Yeah, well, that was
my intention, my darling.
To recreate all this
and make it better.
>> Nikki: I just feel like,
I don't know, like I've
stepped back in time.
In fact, I remember the very
first time I came to the ranch.
>> Douglas: Welcome to
my humble cottage,
Miss Reed.
>> Nikki: You call this
a cottage?
>> Douglas: Oh, yes,
compared with the family home
in Surrey.
>> Nikki: And you live here
all by yourself?
>> Douglas: Well, not exactly.
There's my manservant.
>> Nikki: Well, he certainly has
his work cut out for him,
keeping this place clean.
Then, shall we get on with it?
What questions do you want
to ask me?
>> Douglas: Oh, yes, questions.
Yes, what do I want to ask you?
>> Victor: Well, perhaps
Miss Reed's impression
of the house,
her comments on the lifestyle.
>> Douglas: Oh, yes.
What do you think of
my little place, Miss Reed?
>> Nikki: Uh, it's nice.
It's comfortable.
>> Victor: But personally,
you would prefer
something fancier?
I mean, a bit more elaborate?
>> Nikki: Well, it's great for
out in the country.
It's okay.
>> Douglas: Hear that, Victor?
It's okay.
>> Victor: Miss Reed, you
haven't seen the bedroom yet.
It's quite--
>> Nikki: I'm not touring
any bedroom.
You were hatching plans
from the very beginning.
Oh.
I love this house so.
And I love you more.
>> Victor: Look at that.
Look at it.
Sit down, my darling.
So...
we shall have a toast.
This is your glass.
>> Nikki: Thank you.
>> Victor: This is mine.
To new beginnings.
>> Nikki: New beginnings.
>> Victor: Hm.
>> Nikki: How am I ever going
to top this gift?
You don't play fair, Victor.
>> Victor: I love to spoil you
and I always have.
>> Nikki: From the
very beginning.
>> Victor: That's right.
What I was going to suggest is
that you move in here with me.
>> Nikki: Um...
you want me to move in
this house with you?
>> Victor: Yes, exactly.
I mean, it'll save you hours
of going back and forth, and you
could learn French in just a few
months' time.
>> Nikki: A few months?
>> Victor: Mm-hmm.
I can send Charlie to get
your things right now and we can
begin to study today.
Shall we do it?
>> Nikki: Um...
I-- I think I'd like some
more champagne, please.
>> Victor: S'il vous plaît.
>> Nikki: What?
>> Victor: S'il vous plaît.
If you please.
We must first understand
certain conditions.
>> Nikki: What conditions?
>> Victor: You will have your
own room with a lock to your
door so that you'll be
safe from intruders, and
you can come and go as you
please, and you will
still work at the Bayou.
>> Nikki: And you don't expect
any favors to be repaid?
>> Victor: No favors,
if by that you mean
physical intimacy between us.
>> Nikki: You don't like me.
>> Victor: I like you very much
and I will enjoy
having you around, but...
we will not share a bed.
I want that to be
understood from the onset.
>> Nikki: Well, then, why do you
want me to live with you?
>> Victor: Well, I told
you before.
Don't you remember what I said?
>> Nikki: Tell me again,
so I'm sure.
>> Victor: If you're here,
I can teach you
French much more quickly.
I mean, we already are
writing every morning.
You practice on my piano
practically one hour a day.
You know, living here won't--
You won't have to commute
back and forth that much.
It's just that simple.
>> Nikki: And I won't have
to pay any rent.
I will save money.
>> Victor: For a few months,
at least.
However, this is not
a permanent arrangement.
>> Nikki: Oh, I see.
I'm just a temporary.
>> Victor: No, you're my pupil
and hopefully, my friend.
>> Nikki: You wouldn't want
to kiss me just once, would you?
>> Victor: No.
I am definitely not
going to kiss you now.
>> Nikki: Even if I say
s'il vous plaît?
>> Victor: You're testing
me now, aren't you?
Very well.
There. Satisfied now?
>> Nikki: Well, if that's what
you call a kiss, I think I can
teach you a few things
too, Mr. Newman.
>> Victor: You know,
this has all been a lie.
I've been wanting you ever
since I first saw you.
>> Nikki: Yes, I know.
I know.
>> Victor: But if I kiss
you again,
it can't stop there.
It can't.
>> Nikki: Mm.
The way that I was raised,
I never would have
thought that I would live
in a house like that.
Or like this.
>> Victor: My sweetheart,
neither did I, you know?
You and I had tough childhoods.
But we persevered.
And here we are.
Come here.
>> Nikki: I feel like everything
that happened in that house
is coming back to me.
>> Victor: It'll be the grandest
wedding Genoa City
has ever seen.
Would that make you happy?
>> Nikki: Oh, yes.
There's only one more thing
I need.
>> Victor: What's that?
You name it
and you shall have it.
>> Nikki: Well, after everything
you've done,
everything you're doing to
make things perfect, there's one
thing you haven't said.
>> Victor: What's that?
>> Nikki: You haven't told me
that you love me.
>> Victor: You know, I probably
won't tell you often enough
because that's my nature.
But I do love you.
Nothing,
no one,
will ever keep us apart.
>> Nikki: Oh, well, today was
a dream for me.
The most wonderful dream
of my whole life.
>> Victor: I hope you don't
think it's over.
>> Nikki: Oh.
It's only just begun.
>> Victor: Okay.
Then, we shall drink to that.
Let's drink to
a lifelong fantasy.
A dream that began today.
And God willing,
will go to the end of time.
>> Nikki: It is forever,
you know.
I have loved you
ever since I met you.
And I'll go on loving you
for the rest of my life.
Because you are the man I've
been waiting for all my life.
We've had quite the life,
haven't we?
>> Victor: Yeah.
We have, haven't we?
>> Nikki: Hm.
>> Nikki: Ugh. The styling,
the furniture...
so much of this reminds me
of our first house.
>> Victor: Well, that was done
purposely, you know.
>> Nikki: You have really
remembered every detail,
haven't you?
>> Victor: I just remembered
the things that you liked.
Now, I couldn't salvage all of
them because, as you know, some
of it was lost during the fire.
>> Nikki: And, uh,
we lost a few things
before the fire, too.
>> Victor: What do you mean?
>> Nikki: Well, there may have
been a vase that got smashed
or a couple of glasses hurled
at each other in a fight.
>> Victor: Really?
>> Nikki: We did have our share
of conflicts in the first house.
>> Victor: We did.
>> Nikki: What is so damn hard
about telling me that you're
having an affair with
Ashley Abbott?
There.
It's all out in the open now.
That wasn't so difficult,
was it?
>> Victor: I'm sorry that
it hurts you so badly, okay?
>> Nikki: I don't want
your pity, Victor.
>> Victor: Please believe me,
I never meant to hurt you.
I've not told you this because
I've been trying to protect you,
okay?
I didn't mean to be
intentionally cruel with you.
I love you
far too much for that.
>> Nikki: Love?
You're telling me that you're
having a relationship with
another woman and in the same
breath you're talking to me
about love?
>> Victor: Look at all
this booze!
You think I found it all?
What, do you have some
more stuff stashed
all over the house.
I bet you have hidden this stuff
all over the house, haven't you?
>> Nikki: I'm sorry.
>> Victor: Don't you tell me
that you're sorry,
for heaven's sake?
What the hell does that mean?
You're telling me that you
want to stop drinking, all
the while, you're having
vodka with orange juice.
You have camouflaged
vodka with orange juice.
Who the hell do you think I am?
Are you so locked into
this lifestyle that
nothing matters to you?
That your family doesn't matter
to you?
Your children don't matter
to you? Your friends don't
matter to you?
All that matters to you
is this damn bottle!
Right?
>> Nikki: What's the use?
You may want to talk, but
I don't want to listen anymore.
This is a waste of time.
>> Victor: What do you mean you
don't want to listen anymore?
Don't you walk away like this?
Don't you dare blame me
for the mess we're in right now!
You're as much to
blame for it as I am!
We both could have handled
things differently,
but we didn't.
So, what's past is past.
>> Nikki: Well, if I were you,
I'd want to brush everything
under the rug, too.
Things could get pretty ugly.
At times, I wondered if
we would ever recover from them.
>> Victor: And yet, we did.
>> Nikki: We did.
Any argument we had,
we were able to find our
way back to each other.
What are you going to do
out here all by yourself?
>> Victor: I can manage quite
well on my own, thank you.
>> Nikki: You and your
damn pride!
>> Victor: Yes, me
and my damn pride!
I have to live with it, not you!
Do you have any idea
what it means?
To be a man
and not be able to...
Please just go.
>> Nikki: Victor, please
don't do this.
>> Victor: Take the child
and go!
>> Nikki: No.
>> Victor: What'd you say?
>> Nikki: I said no!
We're not leaving.
I'm not leaving and
Victoria's not leaving.
>> Victor: You don't understand.
>> Nikki: What I understand is
that you have denied that
little girl for too long
and I'm not going to let
you do it anymore!
I'm her mother!
She is your daughter
and we are staying here with you
whether you like it or not!
>> Victor: I want you
to listen to me.
>> Nikki: No!
I'm not going to listen to you.
I'm not going to let you shove
me out of your life again like
you have so many times before
in the past!
>> Victor: We don't have
a life together now.
>> Nikki: Well,
I don't have a life without you.
>> Victor: You must leave.
>> Nikki: I have no place to go.
There's no place I want to go.
I love you.
And I am never,
ever leaving you again.
>> Victor: We've been through
enough this year, haven't we?
Do you know,
I'm sitting right now
right here the woman I love
in my arms.
I just have a very strong
feeling that next year,
it's going to be wonderful
for all of us.
For all the Newmans.
>> Nikki: Do you have any idea
how much I love you?
>> Victor: Happy New Year.
>> Nikki: Happy
New Year, Victor.
>> Victor: Come here.
>> Nikki: I didn't expect to
hear from you so soon.
I thought maybe
you'd want to be alone.
>> Victor: Why would I want
to be alone?
This is where we belong,
you and I.
Together.
>> Nikki: Thank goodness,
we made our way through.
Look at the life we've had.
>> Victor: You know what?
Now, we're going to make
new memories.
For you and me and our family.
>> Nikki: Ah,
this piano is magnificent.
[ knocking at door ]
Oh, my God.
Is that part of the surprise?
>> Victor: Well, you will see.
Yes.
>> Victoria: Dad, hi.
Oh my gosh, wait.
What-- This house?
>> Claire: Hi, Grandpa.
>> Victoria: Am I seeing things?
>> Victor: Come on in.
>> Claire: Mom's a little bit
freaked out.
>> Victoria: Oh, my gosh.
Mom.
>> Nikki: Isn't it incredible?
>> Claire: What's going on?
What is this place?
>> Victoria: Wow.
>> Victor: I'll explain once
everyone is here. Hey!
>> Nick: What is...
This place looks just like--
>> Victoria: Just like the
original ranch house.
>> Victor: Doesn't it?
>> Victoria: But is that
really possible?
>> Nick: How did this happen?
When did this happen?
>> Nikki: It was all
your father's doing?
>> Victor: When everyone
is here,
I will explain it all, okay?
>> Abby: Wow, what is going on?
Where are we?
Hi, Dad.
Hi.
>> Nikki: Hi.
>> Victor: Devon.
>> Devon: Mr. Newman.
>> Victor: Good to see you.
>> Devon: Good to see you. Hi.
>> Nikki: Good to see you.
>> Devon: You too.
>> Abby: Wow.
>> Devon: Hello.
>> Abby: What is this?
>> Victor: So...
I had this
old burnt-down house rebuilt
for your mother, for Nikki.
>> Abby: Oh, my God.
>> Devon: That's amazing.
>> Nikki: It really is.
>> Victor: You know, we had
the original house rebuilt,
but never to my satisfaction.
It just never looked like
what I remembered it to be.
So, I did this for your mother,
for all of you.
>> Nikki: And you did
an amazing job.
>> Claire: This place
is beautiful.
>> Nick: I cannot believe
you pulled it off.
Well done, Dad.
>> Victoria: Just brings back
so many memories.
>> Adam: Sorry, I'm late.
I followed your map.
What the hell?
>> Victor: Yeah.
>> Adam: You rebuilt
the original ranch,
didn't you, Dad?
>> Victor: You bet.
You know, it was difficult
because we had to do it--
trucks were hiding, construction
workers were hiding, so your
mother wouldn't see
a damn thing.
Now, there's something
else I have to say.
>> Victoria: What?
What more could there
possibly be?
>> Victor: Well...
Abby and Devon, I promised you
a special venue.
This is it.
[ Abby gasping ]
>> Devon: You're kidding me.
>> Victor: No.
>> Abby: Oh, my gosh,
Daddy, thank you so much.
>> Devon: Oh, wow.
That's incredibly kind of you,
Mr. Newman. Thank you.
>> Abby: Thank you.
I can't believe it.
>> Nikki: You're welcome.
>> Abby: Thank you.
>> Abby: I mean,
this is amazing.
>> Devon: Yeah.
>> Abby: I cannot believe that
the first family occasion in
the new ranch house is
going to be our wedding.
I mean, if that's
okay with you, Nikki.
>> Nikki: Oh, absolutely.
It's the perfect way
to rechristen it.
>> Abby: Oh...
>> Devon: This is extremely
generous, Mr. Newman.
Thank you very much.
>> Victor: Happy to do it,
Devon.
Can you and I have a word?
>> Devon: Sure, we can.
>> Victor: All right,
let's go over there.
>> Abby: Thank you, Daddy.
>> Victor: You're welcome.
>> Abby: Oh, thank you.
>> Nikki: Oh, I'm so excited.
>> Victor: Have a seat, Devon.
So...
My goodness.
I know that you are still
upset about what happened
between Lily and me.
So, let's talk about it.
>> Devon: I mean, yeah.
I'm still frustrated by
the whole situation.
>> Victor: Mm-hmm.
>> Devon: But, you know,
I've made a promise to Abby
and to myself to set my feelings
aside 'til after the wedding.
>> Victor: All right.
You know, I have Lily's best
interest at heart. I think she
should be with you at Winters.
>> Devon: Yeah, I think so too.
>> Victor: Your father would
have wanted that.
>> Devon: I agree.
But I think that should be
Lily's choice, don't you?
>> Victor: Do you know how often
your father and I talked about
family working together?
>> Devon: I don't
doubt that you did.
But, see, the issue here is that
Lily is a grown woman and I
think that her future should be
her decision and not one
that's forced upon her.
>> Victor: All right.
>> Devon: You wouldn't
want that.
>> Victor: No,
you're quite right.
But I honestly do think
that this would all turn
out very well for Lily.
>> Claire: I've seen some photos
of the original ranch house.
This place looks
remarkably similar.
>> Victoria: Yeah.
Nick and I grew up there.
You know that?
It was our first home.
>> Claire: Aw.
What an amazing surprise.
Grandpa rebuilding this
house just for you.
It's so sweet and romantic.
>> Nikki: Well, your grandfather
has always had a knack for
grand romantic gestures.
>> Victor: You're ravishing.
We should always cherish
moments like this.
>> Nikki: I just wish they
weren't so few and far between.
>> Victor: You know, sometimes,
when we're in each other's arms,
I really feel as if our
souls are intertwined and
you and I have become one.
>> Nikki: I do, too.
>> Victor: My beauty...
[ Nikki sighing ]
>> Nikki: Victor...
Why can't we
stay like this forever?
I love you.
>> Victor: I love you.
>> Claire: It all sounds
so magical.
>> Victoria: We had so many fun
times there as a family.
>> Nikki: And now we'll
have even more here.
>> Victoria: Aw, Mama.
>> Nikki: Mm.
>> Abby: Hi.
>> Devon: Hey.
>> Abby: What did my dad
want to talk to you about?
>> Devon: Oh, he wanted to
talk about Lily.
>> Abby: Oh.
You didn't get into it with him,
did you?
>> Devon: No, I did not.
I told him that I didn't want to
think about it at all.
I just wanted to
focus on our wedding.
>> Abby: Well, thank you for
setting your anger aside.
Look, I am not happy with my
dad's behavior, but I'm just
going to wait and talk to him
about it after the wedding.
>> Devon: You don't have to even
do that, but I appreciate you
having my back.
>> Abby: Always.
Can you believe that
we have a wedding venue?
We actually know the location.
>> Devon: Tell me about it,
I know.
We can actually tell
people where to go.
>> Abby: I cannot wait to
show my mom.
Everyone, really.
>> Devon: I know.
>> Abby: You are okay with this,
right? I mean,
getting married in my dad's
house with everything going on?
>> Devon: Baby, I would
literally marry you anywhere.
So, I'm more than okay with it.
And the place is perfect,
don't you think?
>> Abby: Absolutely.
>> Devon: Right?
>> Abby: It's going to be
beautiful.
I cannot wait to marry you.
>> Devon: I can't wait.
>> Victoria: It's incredible,
Daddy.
>> Victor: Thank you,
sweetheart.
>> Victoria: Good job.
>> Victor: Love you.
>> Victoria: I love you, too.
>> Victor: Okay.
Hey, son.
>> Nick: Dad, this is amazing.
I mean, nicely done.
Mom is so happy.
>> Victor: She is, isn't she?
>> Nick: She is.
You know, you got me feeling
pretty emotional, too.
[ Nick chuckling ]
This feels like I'm home.
>> Victor: Because you are.
We all are.
>> Victoria: Congratulations on
your wedding venue.
>> Abby: Thank you.
I can't believe I get to
get married in this room.
>> Claire: I'm sure the day is
going to be spectacular.
>> Abby: You know, I didn't get
to spend as much time at
the old ranch as my siblings
did, but I know how much this
means to our family.
>> Nikki: It meant everything.
>> Nick: So, what is going to
happen to the place where
you and Mom live now?
>> Victor: It's all yours,
if you want it.
[ Nick laughing ]
Yeah.
>> Nick: Really?
>> Victor: Yes.
I'd love to actually have more
of the family
to live at the ranch.
>> Nick: I mean, wow.
Um, that's very cool of
you and very generous,
but um,
I think Christian and I are
pretty happy where we live.
>> Victor: All right.
>> Nick: Thank you, though.
>> Victor: You're welcome.
>> Adam: Well,
congrats again, Dad.
This place...
It's next level.
>> Victor: Thank you, son.
Have a seat.
>> Adam: What were you two
talking about?
>> Nick: Well, Dad was just
saying how much he wanted
more of the family to
live on the ranch.
And since he and Mom are going
to be living here now,
there's a beautiful house
up for grabs.
>> Adam: Huh.
It's not exactly a teardown.
>> Nick: Nope.
>> Adam: So, are you moving in?
>> Nick: Nah.
Christian and I are pretty
settled. We like it there.
You should take it.
>> Adam: That's awfully
generous of you, Nick, but, uh,
I'm not sure that
Dad would approve of that.
>> Victor: Well, to be honest
with you,
not a bad idea.
Question is, would you like to
be that close to your old man?
>> Adam: I'll give it some
thought.
>> Abby: Thank you
so much, Daddy.
This is the most
wonderful surprise.
Thank you.
>> Nikki: Oh, you're so welcome,
darling.
>> Victor: You will have a
wonderful wedding ceremony here.
>> Devon: I couldn't agree more.
>> Victor: Devon.
>> Devon: Thank you.
>> Victor: I'll see you,
brother, okay?
>> Victoria: If Daddy has seen
to the details,
I'm sure your wedding
is going to be spectacular.
>> Abby: Yes.
Well, we better get home,
because Dominic likes to
practice his ring-bearer
duties every night before bed.
>> Victor: Is that right?
>> Devon: Yeah.
>> Victor: He's so cute.
>> Nikki: Oh, how precious.
He'll be perfect.
>> Devon: If he's not, it won't
be for a lack of rehearsal.
[ Nikki chuckling ]
>> Abby: Good night.
>> Devon: Have a good night.
>> Victor: Good night, you too.
>> Adam: Well, I should
head out, too.
>> Victor: Think about
moving onto the ranch.
I think Connor would like it.
>> Adam: I think he would, too.
>> Victor: Yeah.
>> Adam: I'll give it some
serious thought, I promise.
>> Victor: Good. All right.
>> Adam: All right.
>> Victor: Good night, boy.
>> Adam: Enjoy your new home.
You both deserve it.
>> Nikki: Thank you.
>> Victor: Thank you.
Thanks for coming by.
>> Adam: Mm-hmm.
>> Nick: Dad, I know this place
is for you and Mom,
but thank you for
giving the ranch back to us.
>> Victoria: It really means
so much to us, Dad.
>> Victor: You know I'd do
anything for family.
And now, the next generation of
Newmans can enjoy this as well.
>> Claire: It's an honor.
>> Victoria: You guys
deserve this. Love you.
>> Claire: Love you, Mom.
>> Nikki: Thank you, darling.
Thank you, sweetheart.
>> Victoria: Bye, Mom.
Good night.
>> Claire: You did
an amazing job.
>> Nick: Love you, Mom.
>> Nikki: Love you, honey.
Love you too, son.
>> Victor: Thank you so much.
Happy you enjoyed it. Okay.
Son.
>> Nick: Thank you.
>> Victor: Yup.
Be cool, brother.
>> Nick: You did an amazing job.
>> Victor: Thank you.
[ Nikki sighing ]
>> Nikki: What a night
it has been.
>> Victor: Yes. Yes, yes, yes.
>> Nikki: Did you see
the looks on Nicholas and
Victoria's faces?
They were so touched.
>> Victor: I know.
I thought this would
be very good for them.
And it was.
>> Nikki: Mm-hmm.
Made me think about when they
were children, you know?
How lucky we are to have them.
So much time has passed.
>> Victor: Yeah.
So much time has passed.
You're as beautiful as you were
when I met you.
Really.
>> Nikki: Well, I don't know
about that.
But I am very happy.
You've made me happier than I've
been in a long time.
>> Victor: And now,
not only for us,
it's for the rest of the family.
Isn't that nice?
[ Victor sighing ]
>> Nikki: You didn't just
give me a house.
You gave me a
piece of our life.
A piece of my heart.
>> Victor: I know, baby.
I really don't care
where we live.
As long as you're
by my side, okay?
>> Nikki: Always.
>> Announcer: Next week on
The Young and the Restless...
>> Victor: Well.
Hello, hello.
>> Jill: You ought to
know by now, Victor,
I don't like to be kept waiting.
>> Ashley: I wasn't sure I was
ever going to make it back.
>> Jack: Well, you don't have to
worry about that anymore.
You're home now.
>> Harmony: There he is!
>> Ana: My handsome brother!
>> Devon: Hey!
>> Ana: Are you ready for this?
>> Devon: Now, I am, yeah.
How you doing?
>> Harmony: How are you?
