Adam guessed Cane was Dumas and wasn’t surprised when it was confirmed. He linked it to Chelsea seeing Cane earlier, proving there was a way out. Nikki hoped to get home soon, but no one knew about Cole’s death because of the signal loss. Victor stayed calm but hinted that soon Cane would be playing by his rules, showing he was already planning to fight back.

Cane reveals his endgame
Cane shared his goals with Phyllis, stating that he didn’t just want a piece of the power in Genoa City as he wanted to take over Abbott Communications, Jabot, Chancellor, and Newman Enterprises.
