Ashland has friends in New York and Victoria is excited about starting new personally & professionally with her previous husband there.

If Victoria and Ashland make it out of Genoa City without Victor Newman stopping them, how long will they make it elsewhere? Ashland’s ex-wife was put in jail in New York for something much less severe than anyone in Genoa City has had to spend time in the clink for.
