Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) believes that many of his self-esteem issues will be solved if he runs Chancellor Industries. He's never been able to wrap his head around the fact that his mother, Jill (Jess Walton), sold the late Katherine Chancellor's (Jeanne Cooper) company to Victor.

Billy's been trying to get it back ever since. He's even jeopardized his relationship with Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope). In fact, Billy has tested Sally's devotion to him more than once over his obsession with getting the company back.

On Friday's show, watch for Billy to continue to resist reconciling with Jill. Is this a decision that he's going to regret? Billy may want to rethink this decision.

Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) haven't always gotten along. They've sparred over the same woman, fought over custody of Christian, and had other battles. Now, all that has been put aside as the two have traveled to Las Vegas in an effort to eliminate the threat of Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) once and for all.

There may be something else in Sin City that's going to bond the two men. On Friday's show, watch for Adam to see a new side to Nick. Is Nick finally going to fess up that he's been taking too many pain pills to deal with the pain he's feeling since his leg was operated on following his car crash (that Matt caused)?

Will Adam have observed Nick drinking too much? Or maybe he'll see that his big half-brother has a gambling issue? Adam agreed to go to Vegas to help Nick with the threat of Matt Clark. But it's possible that Adam is going to have to support his sibling in other ways.
