Ric and Sam slept together, betraying Alexis and sending her to the brink of divorce.

In addition to battling for custody of her daughter Molly Lansing-Davis, she faced death.

Her new focus was on preventing her cancer from spreading and claiming her life.

Eventually, she waged war on her husband and daughter while undergoing chemotherapy.

Ric stooped to new lows, using Alexis' unorthodox treatment at the time against her during the trial.

This was viewed negatively by the court and contributed to the decision to award Ric custody of their daughter.

Unfortunately, Alexis' battle with cancer wasn’t over, and neither was the fight for Molly.

Unfortunately, the real-life reaction to the storyline wasn’t as positive.
