Summoned to the CL’s patio by Abby, Billy comments on her first board vote alongside a ‘romantic partner’ – whole new ball game, isn’t it?
Devon’s having a similar meeting with Nate in the jazz lounge – I need to know if I can trust you.
Sloppy drunk in a suite at the club, Nikki scans through her missed calls – can’t I have a damn moment of peace? That bitch is finally dead – I deserve this, she slurs. I’m right where I want to be, she tosses her phone onto the bed and drinks vodka from the bottle.
You’re just what the doctor ordered, ‘Belle’ flirts with Alan. Her voice is different because she spoke more distinctly in Paris. This is her natural, American accent. When Jack arrives at Society, Ashley knows he didn’t just randomly stop by for a drink (Traci ‘snitched’)
Alan’s pleased to meet Jack – thanks for the ticket. Care to join us? Much to Ashley’s chagrin, he does – when did you two meet? Belle’s alarmed – nobody said there’d be a pop quiz, she says to herself.
No, Devon doesn’t know that Abby’s meeting her favourite Uncle tonight – she’s concerned about where things are going between him and Billy.
In the lounge, Devon tells Nate that something’s going on between Billy and Lily. She’s mad because I didn’t tell her that Daniel was cheating with Heather. I can’t count on her vote anymore. Billy has to go.
Nate doesn’t immediately jump onboard when Devon continues to rant about Billy expecting respect he hasn’t earned. If pushed Devon will take his half of the company and leave. You don’t trust your own sister? Nate’s surprised.
Abby wants the truth – what does Billy want out of the company?
That’s some story, Jack comments when Ashley fails at guessing details of how she met Alan in Paris. When Jack leaves them to it, Alan declares him ‘charming’. Ashley disagrees – he’s on a fishing expedition.
Nikki’s throwing herself a pity party. I’m so weak – so stupid – it’s all my fault. Briefly contemplating calling Jack, she drinks more vodka instead and passes out to dream that Victor’s throwing her out of the ranch.
