Meanwhile, Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle), Cole Howard (J. Eddie Peck), and Claire Grace (Hayley Erin) are back in Oregon, the scene of the crime. Claire sleeps all day in a ball, but is adamant that she is strong enough to confront her captor, Jordan (Colleen Zenk). Really?
At least Victoria is smart enough to know this is a bad idea, but she goes along with it anyway, allowing Claire to be alone with Jordan in jail. Hopefully this is not a sign that Victoria will spend the rest of her life giving in to Claire’s demands due to her overwhelming guilt.

Luckily Victoria has steady and dependable Cole and they wait together while fragile Clair interrogates evil Jordan. Spoilers indicate that Jordan does not come clean about her past behavior, but Claire may be able to cathart anyway.
At the very least she now knows that she can have her way with her parents, who should have shown some tough love instead of submission.
