Having a friendly chat about the upcoming Abbott Communications launch party, a ‘proud’ Jack seems to have done a complete 180 – he now trusts Billy putting Sally in charge and thanks him for adding Jabot Classic products to the gift bags. The super-hot Sally then arrives.
At Society, Claire orders Vespers (but, determined to get drunk, considers shots) Holden doesn’t feel ‘obligated’ to join her; he’s always up for a Vesper.
Audra and Kyle encounter one another while on a run in the park.
Billy’s had a fake copy of the GC Chronicle made up – but Sally can’t display it at the party; it’s a keepsake. She’s excited about implementing projects she workshopped at Newman Media (and for romance tonight)
‘Easy’, Holden’s alarmed when Claire gulps down her second Vesper. She doesn’t need a babysitter, nor does she want to talk about what’s wrong – tell me what happened between you and Audra in LA.
When Audra taunts him and wonders where the ‘dainty’ Claire is, Kyle declares her cruel and selfish. You hate yourself for being attracted to me, she continues. Kyle’s glad Claire exposed Audra to Nate – I hope he dumped your ass.
Admitting that he ‘saw’ Audra in LA for ‘more than a bit’, Holden asks what she’s done now. She’s angry and vengeful, Claire wonders how far she can go.
Audra wonders how Claire would feel about them being together under the moonlight. Kyle wonders how Nate feels about Audra being such a liar. You have no friends or allies. Audra will rise like a phoenix. Stay away from me and Claire! Kyle threatens to destroy her.
Billy tells Sally that Johnny and Katie (as well as Connor and friends) think his place really ‘slaps’ – ‘no cap’. Something is missing though, he hands Sally the paper again. She reads aloud – media tycoon, Sally Spectra, is reportedly …. moving in with Chancellor CEO Billy Abbott. Whaddaya say? he asks.
Sally’s gun-shy; the last couple of times she moved in with someone it didn’t end well. And, what about the kids? They adore you and think you’re cool, Billy stands her up for a dance in the living room.
