Meanwhile, in the dining room, Jack wishes he got to Traci before Ashley. Billy calls him an ass – stop pretending the world’s against you. Your sisters are hurting. Dammit, Jack hates it when Billy’s right.

Chelsea’s barely home for a night with her man when Phyllis returns to say they didn’t dig deep enough. If you have any ideas…. What are we talking about Nick wonders? After sending him up to check on Christian, Chelsea does her best to get rid of Phyllis (who again pushes the lie detector test) Why aren’t you invested in catching this thieving bitch? Are you protecting someone? If the thief isn’t one of your employees that leaves only one person.

Devon scolds Noah – the whole restaurant can hear you. You’ve had too much to drink. Or not enough, Noah wonders why Devon’s defending Tessa – you’ve had Mariah and Hilary, is she next? When push comes to shove, Noah ends up on the ground briefly. Just leave me alone, he gets up to snap at Mariah.

In the dining room, Jack claims he didn’t start this – but admits he made it worse. He should have never had that blood-only clause added without talking to the family (who he’s hurt) There’s no getting past it. Of course there is, Billy says simply – change the rule.

Did you really come to my home to accuse me of stealing from my own company? Chelsea then tells Nick what’s going on. I’m a criminal mastermind, she scoffs. JT let it go. But I know something he doesn’t – the money you found in the wall. If that was Adam’s back up plan, why didn’t he take when leaving town? When Nick asks Phyllis to leave, she shows herself out and smirks in the elevator (knowing that Chelsea’s upset and Nick’s suspicious)




Next: Victor shocks Nikki ….. Hilary resorts to blackmail …. JT and Vikki’s party takes a wrong turn.

My Thoughts: Now, all of a sudden, Chelsea has so many employees who are like family to her? I guess we’ll add them all to the list of people she’s about to leave in the lurch…. LOL@ Phyllis’ CSI board – she actually took the time to print off a photo of a stack of money and a truck with ‘Fenmore’s’ on the side. Who does she think would pay for lie detector tests for all these employees? And if the FBI hasn’t been involved already why would they bother with this?….. Tessa’s apartment isn’t nearly ready yet. Is she going to continue to camp out in the office now that Hilary will be coming and going? If Devon and co. are so concerned with running into Noah why did they leave Devon’s restaurant that they were already at – and go over to Newman Towers to powwow at the restaurant Noah manages? It makes no sense. Also, if this is a brainstorming session, why isn’t anyone taking any notes? There’s not much point worrying about Noah’s drinking. Devon hit the bottle for a few weeks (and was once drunkely walking around on the GCAC roof) and then it was forgotten. And Nikki seems to be able to quit drinking at the drop of hat. Neil too. Billy and Jack flirted with alcoholism and have no issues now … How long does Hilary think she’s getting off for maternity leave? In Canada she’d get 18 months. She’d be lucky to get 18 weeks in the US (sorry folks) …. What’s with Traci always being locked out of the house?
