This whole Esther/Chloe-mother/daughter story is ridiculous! If Chloe was so ashamed of her mother, why in god's name did she even move to town?

Dead Like Me
Y&R's Victor Is Alive - And Comes Roaring Back To Genoa City
Victor was presumed dead after the fishing boat he was piloting went down during a storm off the coast of Mexico. The body of Walter Palin, the man Victor holds responsible for Sabrina's death and who was a passenger on the doomed voyage, has already washed up on shore, but there's been no trace of Newman. That is, until...
A determined Nikki has been searching up and down the coast for her ex and finally collapses on the sand. "She is dead tired from searching the beaches of Mexico," sighs Melody Thomas Scott.
Just as she's about to give up, a lone figure approaches and stands over Nikki. She looks up to see ... Victor! Yep, Nikki is overcome with sock and joy when she realizes that Victor is alive. But he doesn't return the sentiment. "He has already decided that she is dead to him."
To Nikki's surprise, Victor announces that he wants to remain dead to the outside world. "He has reached a dead end psychologically and I think that can happen to people when to much stress comes from all sides," says EB. "It's not just about the death of his wife anymore. It's about the pressures of his job and what's going on with his family. You reach a point where you need to escape in order to come to your senses somehow."
Nikki explodes, which Scott likens to "beautiful Scarlett/Rhett scenes." Braeden winks, "It's always fun to fight with Melody."
Back in Genoa City, Victoria, Nick, and Adam read the letters that Victor arranged to have given to them in the event of his death. To his daughter, Victor reveals that she was the only person in his life that he never wanted to disappoint. Awww... Nick is also touched by his missive. "Victor says that he finally accepts the fact that Nick isn't Victor," details Joshua Morrow. "Over the years, Victor tried and tried to make Nick into his image, but Nick just isn't that guy. He's wired differently. So in the letter, Victor acknowledges that his son is his own man and he respects that. What really affects Nick is that Victor says that Nick is the kind of father that Victor always wished he could be. That really hits Nick hard gives their relationship this weight it always needed, but unfortunately, Victor is now supposedly dead."
Adam reads his letter in private. "It's a bunch of platitudes," explains Chris Engen. "Victor basically says that Adam seems to be the one who's most like him. But the thing that really gets to Adam is that Victor tells him not to cut out his sister and brother. To Adam, it seems this letter was more for Victor and his own catharsis than for any practical help. Adam is looking for words of encouragement, but instead it's 'Embrace your brother and sister, who have been fighting ruthlessly against you since the beginning.' Adam thinks Victor wants him to carry out what Victor couldn't do and be the one to distribute the fortune equally amongst them. But Adam's attitude is 'Screw that. You're dead and I ain't sharing.' So he crumples up the letter and throws it away."
Later, Nikki calls her kids with the news that their father is alive - but not so well. "Nick and Victoria are elated, of course, smiles Morrow. "They're like, 'Great! When can we see him?' Then Nikki tells them that he doesn't want to come home. That's not exactly what they want to hear, but they're happy that he's alive."
But Victor obviously changes his mind. "Adam and Heather are having couch sex at the ranch and he looks up and sees Victor, like Hamlet's ghost, standing there,"" chuckles Engen. "Adam jumps up, well, like he's seen a ghost, but Victor doesn't say anything. He just walks by them without saying a word and goes into his study."
Victor's first order of business is to have Michael summon Neil to the ranch. Neil arrives and, while Adam is cooling his heels, is ushered into the study. "Victor reinstates Neil as head of Newman Enterprises," says Braeden. "But Victor isn't happy when he learns that Adam took control of the company and fired his own brother and sister."
Meanwhile, Nick and Victoria are together at the coffeehouse when Estella the housekeeper calls with the news that their dad is home. "They both head to the ranch right away for what they think is going to be this great reunion, but Michael stops them," explains Morrow. "Michael tells them that Victor has some very clear ideas about what he needs to take care of and, for now, that doesn't include jumping into Nick and Victoria's arms. It hurts their feelings because they want to see their dad, but Victor has come back to straighten some things out."
Which includes Adam, who is next granted an audience with Dad. "It doesn't go well," groans Engen. "Victor is sort of a soulless shell of himself. Victor fires Adam and kicks him off the ranch. With very little words, he seems to disown Adam, who doesn't get a chance to explain his side of things. This could be the end of Adam."
Could be. "Adam has acted arrogantly precipitous in Victor's absence," sums up Braeden. "He's a young punk who needs to be taken down. But I must say, I enjoy this story immensely. I think they have brought it back to what I feel is familiar with what Victor is all about. In the state he's in, there's no telling what he'll do next."

I have been in a love/hate relationship with Adam.
Right now I'm afraid its more hate. After your last Adam spoiler I really don't see how he is going to redeem himself. Unless Victoria and Nick have a change of heart and decide to show him some family love.
If he leaves the show what will happen to Heather? She wasn't very good in my opinion until they pared her up with Adam. They just really clicked together. /

I still think Adam is setting Brad up. He has to be holding a grudge over what Brad did regarding Skye's death. Adam is just like his dad. He's keeping his friends close, but his enemies closer!
Also, I also have the spoilers for Bold and the Beautiful. PM me, I love to share!

I really want to like Adam; but these past few episodes have been making it really hard. (although I didn't mind him firing Neil!) I thought he had really loosened up when they paired him with Heather. I would like to see them stay a couple.

I totally agree with you guys on the whole Winters family. I can't stand watching the whole Devon and "new sister" (what's her name) Seriously, I can't even remember her name. However, I do like the Cane/Lily story though. I like Neil too, but recently his story is really boring.
I love to hate Adam...does that make any sense? I agree, heather is a good match with him.

I am so not getting the whole Esther/Chloe thing. Seriously....NO ONE realized who she was? Jill??? Katherine?? Explain to me again where she is suppose to be for the last how ever many years Esther has been working for Katherine? I really hope that Cane and Chloe are not a couple. She would be much better off with Adam and just leave Cane and Lilly together.
And I know I have said it before, but reading the spoilers about Victor, I just love him. I seriously think he is just a big old softie!!!

It makes no sense! Whose name was on the marriage license? Did it say Chloe, Kate? What last name? Surely Katherine/Jill have seen photos of her from Esther.
