Jack tells Ashley that he’ll be just fine without Phyllis. When ‘devoted brother’ Billy arrives, Jack makes a few cracks then leaves him to take more grief from Ashley. Hearing she was stuck in the elevator with ‘the competition’, Billy guesses she’s another Travis fan.
Travis played tennis with Ashley (though he doesn’t remember it) Curious, Vikki then wonders how many women he’s loved. Only one, he replies.
Over drinks, Travis tells Vikki that he’s not even sure he was in love – but THIS is real. When Vikki walks in the room, he can’t look away. Oh, what a lucky man he is. I’m in love with you. I love you, she replies ~kiss~
Ashley chases Billy to the revolving door to hear that Victor hired Travis. Oh, the straight shooter didn’t tell you that? There’s a lot he’s not saying, Billy exits.
Phyllis is convinced that one day Jack will look at her and see the love that will never go away. You think I’m delusional? Mike chuckles – you might just pull it off.
In bed, Jack turns the TV off and looking at the empty spot beside him, removes his wedding ring.
I’m a cop – don’t ever bother my wife again, Dylan warns. After Patty hangs up, he assures Sharon that he’ll find out who’s calling her and why. Sending Dylan back up to bed, Sharon lingers to stress out.
Next: Maybe you should close the door, Abby tells Ben (seems she has something unpleasant to say) … I’ll get the warrant from Judge Ramsey then be right there to see what you’ve got, Dylan tells Kevin by phone … This sounds like something you should fill me in on, Paul pressures Kevin… Separated by glass, Patty’s on the phone with Sharon. I was wondering when you’d get here, she smiles. I knew it wouldn’t take you long.
My Thoughts: Why does Vikki expect Travis to tell-all when she’s the one with what we’ll just say is an ‘interesting’ past. Never mind HIS connection to Ashley, perhaps Vikki should fess up that Ashley was her stepmother; the one who took her for AIDS/STD testing when she was barely out of her teens. Oh, and let’s not forget that they both dated Neil and were both married to Cole Howard and Brad Carlton! It’s ludicrous for Vikki to say she doesn’t know much about Travis when she’s hardly an open book (a trashy novel at that) … What exactly is Phyllis’ new job description? Official paperwork signer and carrier? … Why on earth would Billy feel the need to tell Jack that he just came from seeing Phyllis? … You’d think Ashley would memorable tennis opponent or partner – her biological Father was a tennis instructor after all… Sharon and Dylan can’t afford caller ID? Dylan’s able to follow anyone anywhere in GC via camera but can’t trace calls to his home?
