Victor thinks Nick might be overreacting. Maybe YOU’RE overreacting (Nick thinks there’s a chance Cane won’t do anything) And, you should have thought about that before publishing the hit piece. Victor insists they face Cane as a united family.
Phyllis is disappointed that Cane wants to use the AI for good. He doesn’t want to be the villain – my businesses are suffering – damn right I want to change the narrative. He’d give it all up to reconnect with Lily and the kids. Are you gonna help me or not!?
Vikki accepts the invitation to cancel her takeout and join Adam and Chelsea for dinner. She misses Cole and gets a bit lonely (so is glad she ran into them) No, she never thought she’d say that. Claire went to LA with Holden, Vikki’s opining that it’s not a good idea when Kyle arrives to say ‘I couldn’t agree more’.
After Kyle takes Vikki to the bar for a chat, Adam tells Chelsea he must be feeling pretty desperate right about now (with Claire going to LA with Holden)
Kyle announces that he’s going to LA – he can’t just sit around. He needs Vikki’s help.
Victor did warn you, Phyllis points out. Victor didn’t try to warn me, he tried to blackmail me – very different, Cane would rather do something good with the AI. This isn’t what we discussed, Phyllis wants to get back at everyone who hates them. Billy was right about you – you don’t know what you’re doing, she realizes. Help me or I’ll find someone who will, Cane points his finger.
My son, your grandson, needs his father, Nick will fly back if needed. After Nikki agrees that Noah is more important, Victor finally gives his blessing. Nick then gets a call from Sharon. She’s in a hospital – it’s happening again! Cassie all over again!
Vikki promised Claire that she’d stay out of it. Kyle calls Holden a player – don’t tell me he’s fooled you too; he’s bad news. What am I supposed to do? Vikki’s conflicted. Kyle just needs an address.
Phyllis chases Cane to the revolving door – you don’t know what it’s like to be demeaned by every person in this town. You’re a billionaire. You’ve isolated yourself from everyone – except ME. Stop being ‘high and mighty’ with me. You need me – admit you need me. Yes, I need you, Cane agrees. Phyllis demands proof – she wants the AI program. I can’t believe you don’t trust me.
Noah! Sharon sobs – no, no, no. I’m at the hospital. Noah’s been in a car accident. It’s bad; it’s really bad.
Crap. I didn’t save my edits so lost the last 10 minutes of the show. Basically, Victor tells Nick to go ahead – he’ll have the jet readied … Kyle just needs an address from Vikki… The sexual tension between Phyllis and Cane is palpable. But, the moment she hits the revolving door, Cane leaves a message for Lily (just wanting to hear her voice – call me)
