The super couple on The Young and The Restless, Victor and Nikki, aren't gonna be together much longer.

The union will dissolve in a divorce on October 5 - and it won't be pretty.

"We start out trying to be decent to each other, but things don't turn out that way. It's really pretty brutal," says actress Melody Thomas Scott, now in her 28th year as Nikki. "At one point Eric Braeden [Victor] and I just threw out the script and went for it. We're both Aries, and when we get going in fight scenes, we'll kill each other unless someone yells 'Cut.'"

The marriage started going badly a few months back when ex-stripper Nikki made an unsuccessful run for the Wisconsin state senate. She then slept with her campaign manager, which sent control-freak Victor over the edge. Naturally.

However this isn't their first divorce, and it probably won't be the last.

"Let's face it, they're addicted to each other," Thomas Scott says. "Nikki is the only woman who can make Victor this angry.
