Kyle’s conflicted about his parents getting back together. Diane won’t break Jack’s heart. If you do, it will break the family – we lean on him. Diane’s taking a risk too – we’re going into this cautiously. You’re not just protecting Jack’s heart though, are you?

Back at Sally’s suite, Nick’s told that her blood pressure’s high so she has to go for a follow up appointment. It threw me, she stresses – how will I navigate all of it?

Oh? You didn’t know Phyllis was going to Portugal, Tucker apologizes and rushes out. Daniel leaves a message for his Mother – you better not have gotten on that plane.

Devon comes home to tell Abby about his run in with Vikki – she seems oddly curious about my relationship with Tucker. Abby had an interesting run in with his sister too – she thought Lily was fighting to keep the Winters part of the company (as did Devon) but painted a very different picture today.

Lily claims to just be a sister who wants to work with her brother. Maybe she wants you to stay. Devon doesn’t see how. But, Abby could hear the pain in Lily’s voice – she doesn’t want to hang onto Hamilton-Winters, she wants to hang onto you.

Ester brings Lily tea and questions about Devon. If you need anything at all, I’m here. Lily’s left alone to pout.

Nick knows pregnancy can be overwhelming. Sally IS overwhelmed – she doesn’t want this to pressure him; we were taking things slow. Nick reassures – we only have to look as far ahead as your next doctor’s appointment.

Kyle feels that he’s taking a big risk trusting the Mother who let him believe she was dead – you can’t imagine what that was like. He had to reconcile his memories of a nurturing Mother to what she did. There’s still secrets – Dad stole from Summer’s grandparents, for you – so excuse me for having concerns about where this relationship might leave.

You’re here! Ester’s all over Devon when he shows up at the office. I just adore you, she prays he and Lily can work things out. That means a lot to Devon. Things change but you’re still the same Ester I’ve always loved. He then walks into Lily’s office.

Tucker drops by the penthouse – did I knock on the wrong door? Devon and I co-parent – you shouldn’t be surprised to see me here. Abby sees no need to fake civility since the real reason he’s in town is out now. Tucker wants to come in and tell her the rest of the story.






Adam’s in Jack’s office to update that Victor’s trying to pull the rug out to force him back to Newman. Jack’s not surprised – we’ll handle it. Adam knows he won’t like this next part – Kyle might be in on it.

Relationships implode all the time – what will you do if that happens? Kyle asks. Diane promises that no matter what happens between her and Jack, she’ll never abandon him again.

Abby can’t wait to hear Tucker twist facts to fit his agenda. Tucker admits that he made a mistake. He can’t try to fix things with Ashley (since she’s in Paris) but he won’t give up on his son and grandson. You’re bad news, you should go – now! she holds the door open. It’s not the end of it, Tucker WILL be back. Not if Abby has anything to say about it – don’t cross me – don’t cross US.

Devon doesn’t approve of Lily trying to get Abby to change his mind. You care more about profits and Jill’s agenda than me – that hurts. Lily’s left to look even sadder.

Kyle wants his parents to be happy but in his heart he’s afraid another shoe will drop. There’s no more surprises from my past, Diane promises.

At first, Jack can’t believe that Kyle would conspire with Victor to oust Adam from Jabot. Adam’s not trying to cause trouble – but I’m pretty sure your son’s conspiring with my Father to bring me down.
