Phyllis knows Billy’s no saint – and neither is she. Yes, she loves him but slept with Nick anyway. Nick loves Sharon – maybe I’m a rotten person too. Maybe this is who we are and we can’t change, Phyllis and Nick admit that this feels easy and natural. We’re just talking, Phyllis thanks Nick for stopping by (when he thinks it best he leave)
At the penthouse, Charlie’s not happy that Shawna was going to leave. All about the truth, she wonders why Charlie’s letting everyone believe they had sex the day Lily busted them. I can’t do this anymore, Charlie leaves Shawna to cry.
Returning to the office, Devon ignores Lily as Mariah tries to distract her. Neil addresses all – it’s a difficult time but we must focus on Hamilton Winters as a team. We need to replace Tessa and sell GC Buzz. Get rid of it? Like Hilary’s photo? Devon accuses his Dad of hating Hilary. Mariah will host the show. Now, let’s get back to work. Lily again appeals to Devon – this is killing me. No, it killed Hilary. Lily’s jaw drops when Devon basically says he’d rather she was the one who died.
Sharon’s surprised when Nick comes home. As she blathers about the fridge leaving, Nick hugs her and apologizes for being so busy. YOU are the only thing that matters. He wants to discuss the wedding (she doesn’t look thrilled)
I’m working, Billy says when Phyllis comes in to close his laptop and perch on his desk to apologize and vow not to lose Billy. She won’t hound him about gambling or make demands. I want you. I love you. Billy’s thought about it – this isn’t right. You don’t love me? Yes, Billy loves, wants Phyllis too. As they hug, Phyllis looks less thrilled than Sharon)
Neil worries that Lily might get arrested what about her kids? What about my son or daughter? Devon again lashes out at Lily. Give yourself up – do the right thing or I’ll do it for you.
Next week: I will never forget that you ratted me out to the feds, Victor snarls at Nick…. What’s going on? Devon comes home to ask. Mr Ashby was just reminding me that I need to keep quiet about the car crash, Shawna tattles on Cane…. Jack’s at Phyllis’ place. You’re always looking out for me, she smiles. I will always look out for you, Jack replies … Billy and Summer kiss in his office.
