Answering Mike’s questions, Juliet was clear on Cane’s threat (though he didn’t use those words) Given how much they drank, Mike can’t believe that Juliet would remember Cane’s exact words (or that he was able to say ‘quid pro quo sex’) Juliet was so shocked she remembers it exactly. Meeting for breakfast, Cane gave me back the earring he found in his bed. Mike oozes scorn and skepticism – even though you were ashamed, you accepted the lesser position Vikki offered. Weren’t you afraid the harassment would continue? There was no sexual encounter was there? This is all about money, he concludes.

Sharon’s instincts tell her that there’s more to Tessa and Zack’s story. Not wanting her son to get caught up in it, she will continue to nose around. Scott pokes fun at overprotective Moms and looks onto the patio. She seems to be having fun. Zack’s her type – alpha male. Sharon suspects that’s an act. He’s hiding something.

As Zack tells Abby that he likes music and concerts, she inputs info into the app – which suggests their next date be to Nikki’s concert. You want our third date to be seeing your family? Abby’s jaw drops – you decline?

After Nikki dazzles Victor with her playing, she warns him no grand gestures. Telling her just worry about herself, Victor heads to the stables to work out. Bye Mr Newman, Tessa says.

Leslie wastes little time pouncing on Cane – who admits that he was drunk. He didn’t invite Juliet into his room. He didn’t ask her to have sex for a job at BnS! For the record, you’re denying you had sex with Juliet in Tokyo? All watch as Cane hesitates.

Zack doesn’t want to spend an evening explaining to Abby’s family and everyone who he is. She wants them all to know that he’s behind the great app. Abby’s phone goes off – he accepts. He’s heard her family throws a great party.

Sharon’s knows some bad boys and that’s the vibe Zack gives off. She thinks Scott combustible and she can tell Abby thinks so too. Scott laughs – that wasn’t heat, it was white hot dislike for each other. No, Sharon’s not jealous. I have no interest in Abby, Scott ‘proves it’ with a kiss.

Nikki again tells Tessa that she won’t back out of the concert. Victor doesn’t think I can do anything on my own – I need to prove that’s not true. I won’t let him win!

Leslie will refresh Cane’s memory. Pulling over a TV, she plays a hotel tape of the night in question – Juliet helping Cane down the hall, into the elevator and then his room. And here’s the next morning – time stamped 10:30 am. All watch in various stages of shock and disappointment as Juliet is seen sneaking out and putting her shoes on outside Cane’s room.

Next: You seem to be awfully protective of Lily – are you sure she’s not more than just a friend? Chelsea asks Jordan … Mike listens as Billy insists Vikki settle the case – we can’t go on like this – you don’t know what the next bombshell’s gonna be … Lily hisses at Cane – I want to know exactly what happened in your hotel room.
