Douglas' plan to drive Derek out of Katherine's life and receive the woman's love obviously didn't go as planned. In fact, Katherine accepted the man's advice to contact Victor to replace Derek, but he hadn't expected the woman to arrange a cruise as the second honeymoon. Unable to accept the fact that Derek was preferred over him, Douglas thus decided to give it the last chance and decided to embark on the ship himself. In the meantime, Katherine is happy to have some time with Derek and says she is convinced that the marital problems between them will be resolved in a short time. Derek, however, is not very convinced, being increasingly attracted to Judy. In any case, Derek feels he owes to the woman and wants to really try and give their marriage a new chance. However, when he meets Douglas on the ship, Derek cannot believe his own eyes and, convinced that the woman was able to bring her lover on their honeymoon, in a burst of jealousy and frustration, after risking a fight with Douglas himself, he gets off at the first port of call and immediately returns to Genoa City to Judy. Unaware of everything, Katherine, meanwhile, can't believe the words of the captain and how Derek could have abandoned her during their vacation; and, in a moment of despair, she throws herself off the ship under the desperate eyes of Douglas. He immediately calls Genoa City and warns two upset Victor and Derek of what happened. The woman's search is in vain and after a few days everyone resigns themselves to the loss of Katherine. Some time later, Derek recriminates his share of the woman's inheritance, but Katherine's lawyer, Mitchell Sherman, informs him that, without a body, the legal process to declare Katherine dead would have taken five years. Following Katherine's wishes, Mitchell, as curator of the woman's estate, decides in the meantime to leave Victor in charge of Chancellor.
