Noah leads Ravi to the Newman office and dumps him on Vikki.

Billy pays an unexpected visit to Ashley to talk about what happened at her award dinner. Ashley thinks everything is ancient history, but Billy insists on revisiting old news. Her voice cracking, Ashley now stands up from her seat claiming Billy is her brother regardless of who her father is. Billy is relieved to hear that and reciprocates. Ashley feels betrayed when Billy asks to take the company jet for his trip with Phyllis.

Over a drink Ravi was promised, Vikki asks Ravi to leave Jabot and join Newman Enterprise’s software development team. Ravi is overwhelmed by the offer however he wonders if Vikki is offering him the job because of his ability or rather as an attempt to one up her rival.

Mariah is essentially ‘third-wheel’ to Devon and to Hilary, who will not stop raving about Devons success. Mariah spots Noah off camera and is unimpressed. During the commercial break, Hilary’s cheery aura fades and her anger towards Tessa lengthens.

Nikki, Jack and his mother sit down together. Nikki apologizes to Dina, trying to sympathize with her alzheimer’s by revealing that she herself is in remission for M.S. Dina is untouched by Nikki’s truth, but Nikki accepts that Dina is justified in acting the way that she does because of her illness.




Ravi considers Vikki’s offer, but declines as his loyalty stays with Ashley and Jabot.

Billy tries to convince Ashley that he means well with his trip however she maintains that the company jet is meant only for work-related travel. Billy argues that he wants to leave all the drama “no strings attached,” to which Ashley suggests she isn’t tied down to her work either, understands Billy’s position and has her own “no strings attached” relationship.

At the bar, Ravi and Phyllis have a drink. Phyllis tells Ravi all about her and Billy’s plan to take the company jet. Ravi confides in Phyllis about his secret relationship with Ashley.

The set intensifies as Hilary brings up Devon’s past relationship with Mariah on air. Hilary suggests we “find out who the real Devon Hamilton is.” Hilary also teases that they will be discussing the real reason Tessa isn’t performing on her show.

Vikki films Newman Enterprises’ anti sex trafficking campaign. Lily is pleased with her take and sends the cameraman away with the footage. Ironically enough, Lily at this point receives a notification on her phone that Newman Enterprises will be given a top to bottom audit.

Jack apologizes to Nikki for his mother’s behavior. Jack struggles with his mother not recognizing her.

Paul tells Tessa that she must find evidence that links Victor to the sex-trafficking ring and she will be exempt from prosecution. Tessa learns she must work undercover to get it.

Hilary reveals that Tessa was brought into the Genoa City police station for investigation. Noah leaves. Devon and Mariah express their discomfort.
