Tina wanted everything Viki had�including her husband!

Tina�s search for her real father continued with her discovery of a secret room hidden behind the bookcase in the library of Llanfair. Complete with soft lights and music, she realized that it was Victor Lord�s love den. She also discovered eleven original paintings which disappeared from foreign museums during World War II. Tina�s adventures in the secret room yielded a startling discovery; a letter from Victor which was intended to be delivered to Viki. In it, Victor confessed to being the father of Irene Manning�s child.

Shuddered at the realization that she was Victor Lord�s daughter, Tina knew that Viki would not be pleased to hear that the father (whom she always revered) had once seduced her childhood friend! When Tina produced the letter, predictably, Viki reacted with anger�insisting that it was a forgery. Later, a still in denial Viki began experiencing violent headaches. Upon recalling a foggy memory of seeing Irene in bed with her father, Viki�s personality to split again. Niki Smith was back!

Niki began frequenting one of her old hangouts, the Backstreet Bar. There she became reacquainted with an old boyfriend, Harry O�Neill! Harry was stunned to see �Nicole� again. He remembered how she had run away when he refused to leave his wife and kids for her. Harry found himself very much in love with Niki, though his feelings were complicated by his existing relationship with Dorian Lord.

At The Banner�s 50th Anniversary Gala, Viki praised her father publicly and the guests were invited to enjoy a souvenir program commemorating the event. To Viki�s horror, an inserted Xerox copy of Victor�s confessional letter had been mistakenly placed in every program! With the news now public, a mortified Viki accused Tina of the shenanigan and slapped her in the face, before racing away in shame.
