Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) and his wife, Nikki Reed Newman (Melody Thomas Scott), have been estranged for quite some time now. He was willing to let her walk out the door over her insistence that he end his relentless feud with Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman).

All that's on hold right now, however, it seems. Now, Victor and Nikki's only son, Nicholas (Joshua Morrow), is fighting for his life because of his addiction to opioids.

On Monday's show, watch for Victor to bargain with Nikki. Victor's an expert businessman, so he may give Nikki what she wants -- putting a pause in his pursuit of Jack. In return, Victor will want something from Nikk in return. Will she be able to give Victor what he wants? Will they unite long enough to see Nick through his ordeal?
