Now alone in the park, Nate gets a call from Devon, then is pleased to run into Vikki. He agrees to join her for a peppermint hot chocolate.
‘You almost kissed me’, Cane wonders if Phyllis is playing a game. She’s attracted to him, emotionally and sexually – we’re very much alike. You like how much attention I give you. Stop clinging to the past, make a fresh start, she gives him a kiss, then passes Lily as she leaves. Do I even want to know what the hell that was about? Lily frowns at Cane.
Sharon leaves a message for Noah – call us – love you. Knowing where Noah likely is, she and Nick leave the hospital.
You’re a liar and cheater – friends respect boundaries! Mitch is pissed. You’ve got this all wrong, Noah didn’t betray Mitch – I’ll just go. Stopping him at the door, Detective Burrow has questions about the crash that almost killed Noah.
Vikki tells Nate that Noah’s awake and on track to make a full recovery. She ran into Claire a few times in LA. With her and Noah in mind, Vikki comments that sometimes you don’t see consequences coming until it’s too late.
Maybe a drive past the crash site will jog your memory, the detective isn’t making a request (it’s an order)
Does it bother you? Cane tells Lily that he’s ‘working an angle’ (with Phyllis) I’m the man you fell in love with – stay, he implores Lily.
When Nick and Sharon show up at the bar, Mitch claims he hasn’t seen Noah. Maybe your wife knows where he is, Nick suggests.
Nate has a confession to make – he already had a hot chocolate (but wanted to spend time with Vikki) How’s Amy? She’s in LA with Traci, visiting Nina (supporting one another as Mom’s who both lost their sons) Mentioning Audra, Vikki has a distraction for Nate.
Back at Society, Lily can see that Cane’s trying – but it won’t happen overnight. No one ‘hates’ you but trust is broken. Our kids won’t talk to me, Cane whines – I love you. Lily can see that he’s in pain – but you’ve changed. So, there’s nothing I can say or do? he concludes sadly.
The Newmans refuse to leave. You think Noah came here looking for Sienna? Mitch wonders what Noah told them about his relationship with his wife. Nick WILL get answers – even if he has to force them out of Mitch.
You’ve been using me for months trying to fix things with the kids, Lily complains. You’re done? Should I give up on changing your mind? Cane knows they could ‘get it all back’ – but you obviously don’t want that. Maybe you never loved me as much as I thought you did, Cane leaves Lilly looking guilty.
Nate agrees to go out for dinner and drinks with Vikki.
Cane joins Phyllis at the club’s bar – you were right – it’s time for a fresh start; to focus on a new future. What are you doing tonight? Are you free?
Mitch thinks Noah moved half way around the world to get away from his ‘helicopter’ parents. If you did anything to my son, you’re a dead man! Nick threatens.
Next Week: We need to talk about what happened in LA, Claire tells Holden … Do I have your attention? Phyllis kisses Cane passionately…. Noah wake up, Sienna finds Noah on the ground. What happened to me? he asks ….The fire alarm goes off, Sharon grabs her purse and yanks open the door to leave her suite. You!? she almost runs into Mitch/Matt.
