In bed, Lauren awakens screaming from nightmares of Sarah. She's gone, Mike comforts his sobbing wife. Meanwhile, Kevin knocks - then lets himself into the apartment - Jana? You here? He's stunned to see Jana's sporting a new, shorter do - holy!

It's the Ashby's anniversary - so Cane's turning on the charm. Breakfast (not in bed cause Lily's up) - flowers. He'll love Lily til the last petal falls from the last rose. Forever - since one rose is plastic ~kiss~

Dining at the club, Billy and Rafe catch up. Billy apologizes for his Mom's article (that put Rafe on suspension). S'OK - Rafe's done with being a public defender - but how to start up a private practice. Piece of cake - Billy offers to be his first client. When Mac waddles over, she's thrilled for Rafe - and will throw a party for him at her bar. Excuse us, Vikki sprints over to drag Billy away (assuming he announced their marriage).

In the CEO's office, Ashley and Victor aren't pleased to see Abby's nudity wasn't 'pixilated' - it's utterly embarrassing. Looks like she's acting out - and needs guidance. She's about to get more than she bargained for, Ashley concludes.

At CL's, Abby's amazed at how many hits her clip's getting online. OMG - she's Viewclick royalty already. We sent it to all our friends, a trio of young ladies bubble. As Abby thanks her departing fans, Ken talks of their hot new reality show - a clothing line - can Abby sing? Abby doesn't want any 'suits' managing her. Ken's her man - and she'll have a check to him by lunchtime.

As Vikki blasts blabbermouth Billy, he finally sets her straight - they're congratulating Rafe. Come ON - would Mac really throw them a party? Maybe JT will split the bill.

On the sofa, the Ashby's talk of love - the cancer and the babies. Cane feel's they're living a miracle (they've overcome what other couples never could). On cue, Lily takes a call from Aunt Liv (who needs an answer - time's running out).

In the elevator, Ken coaches Abby on purse placement (so the camera inside captures her getting her money). Meeting her parents in the CEO's office, Abby's expecting her first check from Brad's estate. Hearing that won't happen until she's mature enough to handle the money Abby whines (while Ken listens - and frets - in the hallway). Victor and Ashley will review the decision in a year - until then Abby will have to make do with her generous allowance. Abby all but stomps her feet and holds her breath - It's MY inheritance! Having a 'business plan', she demands it NOW!

As Jana pours tea, Kevin pretends to like her 'great' new hair do. She thought a change might help. Did it? Jana doesn't know. Kevin prescribes 'time' - that's all.

Lauren needs 'time' too - as she's deeply effected by having killed two people; Sarah and Sheila. At CL's, Lauren thinks it 'weird' not to see Kevin or Jana here. Oh - and she lied to Fen (claiming she screamed because she stubbed her toe). Yup - Lauren needs time. And some 'real' help, Mike adds - as soon as possible.

The breakfast tray still between them, Lily and Cane debate the stem cell trial. Cane for - Lily against; both make their case. Cane thinks the risks small. Yeah - but what were the risks that Lily would get ovarian cancer (at her age). Cane could live with losing the babies? It would break his heart - but yes - he chooses Lily.

Abby shares this 'business plan of hers'. With careful branding - strategic planning - and the public's appetite for glamour, she'll be a TV producer. What's this show about? Abby. Hearing the names Paris and Kim, the clever Ashley guess 'reality show'. Aspirational living, Abby corrects - she's rich, beautiful - from two powerful families - people can imagine what it's like to be HER. And be the butt of late night TV jokes? Tabloid fodder? Victor's clearly unimpressed. Ashley's uses airquotes - those 'stars' - become train wrecks. Abby's no spoiled little rich girl - she's socially conscious don'tcha know. Ashley gets another 10 points for realizing the protest was self promotion. Camera's in our homes and business? Ain't gonna happen, Victor's firm.

Word of the day is 'time' - and Abby understands why her folks need some. Victor reminds that he pays security to keep prying eyes from their family. You talk like you're a commodity - people will feel entitled to OWN you, Ashley adds. It's a goldmine - for Abby (who has 'star quality'). A job at NE? Jabot? Abby doesn't want one. Tough - it's not gonna happen, Victor barks.

At CL's, Mike and Kevin mope about their wives. Jana cut all her hair off, Kevin whines - she doesn't act OR look like his wife anymore.

Wow, Lauren questions Jana's new do. The reason? Kevin. Jana knows he expects affection - emotion. She can't give Kevin what he wants - she only feels tension - the way Kevin watches her. Lauren can relate - Mike wants her to see a doctor. That psycho bitch has ruined both their lives. In tears, Lauren's coming unglued - and is actually jealous of Jana's ability NOT to feel anything.

Back at the club, Billy chides Vikki - marriage suits her. Unamused, Vikki's also talking time (in the form of a time machine - to go back and undo their marriage). How can the best days of our lives be a mistake? Billy keeps the jokes coming. OK - it's NOT a mistake - it's a disaster, Vikki hisses. What's a disaster? nosey Mac marches up to ask.

Billy and Vikki both stammer different 'disasters'. Vikki losing custody ... My brother being arrested. That's why you dragged Billy away from the table. After more confusing conversation, Vikki marches out (leaving Mac to tell Billy he's a mess). She's a Newman - you're an Abbott, she reminds. Romeo and Juliet? We all know how well that turned out.

When Jana and Lauren arrive at CL's, Kevin's tripping all over himself - then realizes he should stop talking. No - it's not too soon for Jana to be here - she should be working. Hey - Lauren's short staffed - how about Jana works at the boutique. Kevin's cool with it - but Jana's the only one who knows how to fix the coffee grinder. OK - Jana will work here - and heads off to take a look at the grinder (while Kevin's thanking her).

Ashley admires Abby's drive for independence. But Victor would like her to focus that energy elsewhere - like getting a business or law degree - once she's proven herself, they can discuss her inheritance. Abby rants rudely - oh, how her parents have mistreated her - the revolving Dad's and homes - their revolving partners. I'm the one who needs to grow up? I've had the best examples haven't I? Abby clip clops out - Ashley and Victor left to share awkward silence.

Cane stops Lily's vacuuming to continue the debate - but lily will NOT jeopardize her babies by being selfish - she simply won't do it

At the club, Ken demands money - who will pay the camera crew and stylist on stand by? He's done flushing his money on this project. I'm the naked heiress - not some poser, Abby declares - as a Newman and an Abbott, Abby WILL get the money. Yeah - you do that, Ken marches off. Eyeing Rafe, Abby's then chided by Billy and Vikki - learn to duck and cover. You posed nude, Abby reminds - they're beacons of discretion. Don't act on impulse - it'll bite you, Vikki concludes.

Ashley and Victor discuss Abby acting out - and today's reprimand. But when Victor suggests Ashley forego her job, Ashley reminds that Victor hasn't been much of a role model - Abby's behavior is not all HER fault.

Vacuum in one hand, Lily's got the babies sonogram photo in the other. Cane's at CL's confiding his woes to Mac (whom he'd like to convince Lily). No - Mac won't do it - she can't ask Lily to take that risk (and agrees with her).

Kevin knows Jana needs space - and he knows the Baldwin's need theirs - but can he crash on their couch? Of course - Fen would love it. Kevin's grateful - it gives him 'time' (to make Jana fall in love with him all over again - how hard can THAT be?) He then asks Jana out on a date - dinner - movie - bowling? You do that funny dance when you get a strike. No expectations - just a date. He beams when Jana agrees. Watching, the Baldwin's agree - it'll take time. Has Lauren thought about going to see someone? Yes - she will - for Fen - and 'us'. Mike then hears that Phyllis and Sharon convinced her to talk to Patty (as Sarah). No wonder she's been having nightmares. They must exorcize Sarah from their lives - forever.

Talking about who's to get the annulment, it seems that both Vikki and Billy are stalling. She wasn't able to reach Mike - and Billy just missed Rafe - by this much.

Back at NE, Victor's not holding Ashley responsible for Abby's behavior. They need to present a united front to reign Abby in. She's now pouting. A reality show for heavens' sake, Victor mutters.

At the club's bar, Abby pretends to be horrified at her parent's shoddy treatment of Rafe and his Aunt Estella. They don't realize that other people have feelings. How about they help each other? Show them they're not in charge of the whole universe. Abby would like Rafe's help in suing her parents - for what's rightfully hers.

Next: The friendly convict's not so friendly today. Spotting Nick sitting with Victor, he sneers - well look who's here - like father, like son huh? ... In the interrogation room, Vikki's fretting - how can she fight JT - when he has the law on his side? .... JT's not happy to hear that the reason he got full custody of his son - is because Tucker did him a favour - and now, he'd like JT to return the favour.

My Thoughts: Great idea Rafe - start up a private practice - clients will flock to a lawyer who's been suspended from his public defender's job (and hasn't even the balls to sue the Newman's for defamation and wrongful dismissal on his Aunt's behalf) ... According to Abby's, the 'buzz word' today is 'aspirational living' - but it's clearly today's buzz word is 'time' - now, everyone take a drink when the word 'time' is overused .. Won't the CL's patrons be delighted to be served by the sour faced Jana ... More talk of Kevin crashing on the Baldwin's sofa - when they have more than one vacant bedroom .... Oh yes - Fen would love to have Uncle Chipmunk staying with them (but will disappointed when he realizes that Kevin spends every waking moment at CL's) ... Why is Lily vacuuming? On her anniversary no less - with Lily too weak to endure another round of chemo, can't the Ashby's afford a maid? ... How rude of Mac to butt her big belly into Billy and Vikki's private discussion - to ask 'what's a disaster'? Maybe the disaster is that folks can't HAVE a private discussion without her coming along to find out what's going on? But I guess Vikki started it (dragging Billy from HIS conversation) - did she really think Mac was offering to throw the newlyweds a party? And while Abby thinks she's 'royalty' because she's an Abbott and a Newman, why would an Abbott and a Newman want their reception held at a dive bar in the seedy side of town? Wouldn't the Colonnade Room be more appropriate (if it still exists)? ... Kevin's reaction to Jana's haircut was a bit over the top - you'd think a guy who'd robbed banks wearing a mascot head - and who'd recently freed his wife from a cage, would be a bit more unflappable. Jana went for a walk cause she couldn't sleep - and managed to find a hair salon open 24 hours? .. Victor worries that Abby's new show will put on the front covers of tabloids? Like he's not featured in every issue of RS anyway? ... S'OK - 'stars' only become train wrecks if they believe their own hype? And Abby clearly doesn't fall into that category ..... It's a bit creepy to see Victor watching online video of his daughter shedding her clothes. Why isn't he huffing and puffing - vowing to 'fix' or 'handle' it - like he usually does? ... Now Abby's reverted to calling Brad by his name - what happened to her calling him 'Daddy'? And she now calls Victor by his name too. Abby's NOW 'of age'? Did she just have a secret birthday? Odd that the heiress didn't throw a big bash to celebrate ... Why is Vikki whining about never seeing her son again? Her remarrying - even to Billy - wouldn't negate her liberal access. Not sure why JT would have to call her to set up access - it should have already been negotiated - and included in the custody agreement ... Lily had 'no idea' what marriage meant 'before'? Not like she could learn from her father - who cheated on his bride Karen before the ink was dry on their marriage certificate ... Great that Victor spends a lot of money on security (but how can they keep 'prying eyes' away from the family - if they can't even manage to announce visiting guests?) ... Abby's not gonna spend her money on 'crack'? Whew - that's something, right? But why are Ashley and Victor talking about a college degree - shouldn't Abby worry about graduating from Walnut Grove High first? And with jobs at NE and Jabot being hurled at her, why would Abby even need a college degree? And really - Abby as a lawyer? ... Abby has nothing to hide? Guess she's no longer stealing Daddy's booze - and trying to hook up with homeless guys? ... Really Lauren? You're 'jealous' that Jana's brain no longer registers any form of emotion? You DO need to seek help asap. At least Lauren remembers that she runs a boutique (which I assume will one day be toxic free and re-opened to the public) ... Why wouldn't Lauren just tell Fen that she had a nightmare - if she doesn't want to lie to Fen, why claim she stubbed her toe? A kid smart enough to see through a Mommy imposter, should be able to tell a terrified scream - from a 'who the hell left this toy on the floor for me to stub my toe on' scream (never mind that the latter usually includes a string of expletives).
