Ooohh!! Angry Phillip!! This could be good!

[sportsgirl]

Maybe he can lock him up in a prison in Belize...Oh Snap, that's the other story....

[fluffysmom]

I knew it was going to be Kate and Ian in there. Nasty thing to walk in on. Poor Philip. Loved the comment that it's so 1993 and Philip telling her to never call Chloe a slut again. I love intense Philip. This story is so fun Kpatch. Thanks!

CORRIDOR AT TITAN HQ

Brady: Did you find him?
Philip: Um, no. Let’s get out of here.
Brady: But ...
Philip: I’ll meet Ian another time. I need to talk to my father. Let’s go.


KIRIAKIS MANSION, A SHORT TIME LATER

Brady and Philip enter.

Victor: Philip! When did you get here? Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?
Philip: I didn’t call because I don’t think your phone is working.
Victor: Maggie, is our phone on the fritz?
Maggie: I’m not speaking to you Victor. Remember? Hello Philip.
Philip: Hi Maggie.
Victor: How’s my grandson?
Brady: I’m good. Thanks for asking.
Victor: I meant Parker.
Philip: Don’t change the subject.
Victor: Just what is the subject?
Philip: The subject is Titan. How could you hand our company to a hateful bastard like Ian McAllister?
Victor: It was an uncharacteristic error in judgment. I’m working at having it rectified.
Philip: Why did you hire him in the first place?
Victor: We needed a new CEO when Brady stepped down.
Philip: And the name Philip Kiriakis never came to mind?
Victor: You said you wanted to be there for Parker.
Philip: I am there for Parker. I always will be. But that doesn’t preclude me running Titan.
Victor: Well I just assumed ...
Philip: Obviously! Thanks for giving away my birthright, Dad.
Victor: I wish I’d known you were interested.
Philip: Ever hear of a phone? All you had to do was call and ask if I was interested. Even an email. Or a text message. My iPhone handles all three.
Victor: I’m sorry Philip. I guess I’ve been distracted.
Maggie: Don’t look at me. I will not take the blame for this.
Victor: As I told Maggie, it’s just business. We’ll survive this.
Philip turns to Brady.
Philip: Boy, he really has turned soft, hasn’t he?
Brady: Love’ll do that to you.
Victor: Now that I know how you feel, I’ll back you 100 percent. All my resources are at your disposal. Whatever you need.
Philip: Good. Let’s get rid of the bastard.

[gapeach]

Oh love that Victor and Phillip are teaming up to get rid of IAN. They need to bring Stefano in as well, since IAN was 'meeting' with Katie in the conference room. That way we know that Ian is gone for GOOD!!!!!

[DancingDays]

Min said it best. If only.....

[mae00]

More More More!!!! I wanna know what PHillip's plan is! I know it's gonna be good!

[slyn11]

As if Philip hasnt had conference room sex....lol

Loved Victor and Philip teaming up.

[fluffysmom]

loved this: "We needed a new CEO when Brady stepped down. And the name Philip Kiriakis never came to mind?" I love it that both Maggie and Philip were giving it to Victor. So glad that Victor is backing Philip. I can't wait to see what happens next.

HORTON TOWN SQUARE, THAT MORNING

Ian is walking to his office from the hotel, whistling a tune and carrying his walking stick over his shoulder. He is accosted by a woman.

Ian: What do you want?
Sami: I need to ask you for a huge favor,
Ian: Me? This should be interesting. What ever do you need from me?
Sami: I know you know that I ... I’m working undercover.
Ian: Nice spin. Where I come from, it's called corporate espionage.
Sami: You can’t tell Kate. Just promise me you won’t tell her.
Ian: Why wouldn’t I tell her? You mean nothing to me.
Sami: Because if you tell her, Lucas will be mad and it’ll screw up our chances of getting back together. I can just hear him saying “Same old Sami. You disappoint me. You never learn, do you?”
Ian: Why did your voice just get two octaves lower?
Sami: I was imitating Lucas.
Ian: Seems to me that’s your problem, not mine.
Sami: Wait. I’ll make a deal with you.
Ian: Seriously? You have nothing I want. You’re a twit and you’re starting to bore me. Get out of my way.
Sami: How dare you speak to me that way.
Ian: Good day, Samantha.
Sami watches him walk toward the Titan building.
Sami: That hateful bastard will live to regret talking to me that way.


COUNTESS WILHELMINA OFFICES, THAT AFTERNOON

Billie: Mom, check this out. What do you think of this lipstick on me? It’s our hot new color for spring. It’s called Puff Daddy.
Kate: Hmmm, I think it makes your lips look too big.
Billie: I like it. Oh! I forgot to tell you. Guess who I ran into the other day.
Kate: Who?
Billie: Philip. I had completely forgotten I had another brother.
Kate: That’s nice.
Billie: What’s the matter? You seem distracted.
Kate: That’s because I’m sleeping with the enemy.
Billie: I know that. You’re married to Stefano Dimera.
Kate: Oh. Stefano. Yes, of course.
Billie: You seem really tense, Mom. Listen, I hear the spa is having a Botox BoGo special. Buy one get one free. Let’s go. My treat!
Kate’s cell phone rings.
Kate: Sorry baby, I’ll have to take a raincheck. Right now, I have someone I need to see.


TITAN HEADQUARTERS, THAT EVENING

Kate walks into Ian’s office.
Kate: Vincent? I’m here, my love. I got your message. You said you wanted to see me?
When he doesn’t respond, she approaches his chair, which is facing away from her. She walks around the desk and sees Ian staring straight ahead with a bullet hole through his forehead. She lets out a bloodcurdling scream.
Kate: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

[gapeach]

YEAH!!!! Ian (Vincent) is dead. Now the million dollar question "Who dun it??"

[mae00]

Woooo hoooooo!! We are rid of Vincent!!!!! YAY!!!

My guess is one of Stefano's henchmen did it after he learned of thier affair.

[sportsgirl]

But maybe it was Sami??? Nah, she's not that good a shot.

[fluffysmom]

Yay that jerk is dead! Now to find out who killed him. It's not smart to sleep with Stefano's wife or anger the entire Kiriakis clan.
