Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) is determined to force Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) out of Genoa City, Wisconsin. That effort is currently veering toward failure because Diane’s son and the father of her child back her.

Phyllis was shocked when Jack admitted that his feelings for her persisted through present day. That happened in the Abbott mansion’s living room while she was still committed to Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow).

Summer occupies the middle section header in this feature, which is intentionally reflective of her position. Lanier’s character must support her husband while also being her mother’s defender.
An initial truce was agreed to in the recent past where Diane and Phyllis made verbal claims. Diane knew she was in a better spot than Phyllis. So, going along with Summer’s brokered agreement was a no-brainer.

The slow and steady approach Diane is taking has worked. Meanwhile, Phyllis and others know they need to implement new strategies in hopes of making her go away.
