1982 (#28) - Nikki's feelings for Victor and Kevin's accident at Newman Towers

Meanwhile, the newlyweds Nikki and Kevin return from their honeymoon, apparently happier than ever. Nikki, on the other hand, tries to do her best for the sake of her marriage and the unborn child, and so she decides to put her feelings for Victor and his work at The Bayou behind her for good. After all, since Jerry's death, she hasn't been able to get into the club and she no longer feels comfortable being a stripper, starting to see the first signs of pregnancy. Despite all Nikki's efforts, however, her marriage soon turns out unhappy for her. And the news of the end of the relationship between Lorie and Victor unleashes in Nikki old feelings and passions for the man. It is not long, therefore, that Nikki decides to tell Victor the truth about the child's fatherhood. In response to Nikki's words, however, Victor does not want to hear reasons and refuses to believe that the unborn child that Nikki is carrying is his, having undergone a vasectomy in the past. Just as Victor and Nikki argue furiously, and the woman confesses to Victor that she still has feelings for him, a call warns the two of a serious accident Kevin had at work at the Newman Tower's construction site. A scaffolding fell on Kevin, who was seriously injured and was rushed to the hospital.
