At Society, Lily and Traci reminisce about Colleen. Lily pouts about her kids not wanting to come home for Christmas, possibly because of Cane. How are things with him? Messy and confusing. That’s better than bitter and angry, Traci quips.
Cane leaves the twins a message – offering to fly them home – to be with their Mom. Phyllis appears on the train – knock, knock – bad time? What do you want? Cane’s unfriendly.
At Sharon’s, Nick leaves Noah a message – now’s not the time to go radio silent – Matt’s in town. Declaring Matt a maniac, Sharon wants her son home NOW.
Noah comes to in the park. Standing up to rub his head, he staggers off ‘Sienna? Sienna??’
Lily tells Traci that Cane went with her to the launch party – not as a date. Traci’s sorry she missed it. The two of you are connected, she agrees that Cane’s charming and funny. It’s OK to laugh and have fun – even with a charming jerk – enjoy happiness when it comes along, she advises.
Phyllis complains that Cane’s jerking her around – like that kiss out of nowhere -let’s be friends, pals. We were done with each other, he reluctantly opens her gift; a puzzle for a man who likes mazes. Since Cane has no gift for Phyllis, she’ll whisper something in his ear and he can ‘make the magic happen’.
Sharon leaves Noah a message – your father and I need to know you’re OK. Nick’s about to go looking for him when Noah calls from CL’s – is Sienna there?! he has no idea where she is.
I screwed up, Noah admits. Someone knocked me out – when I woke up Sienna was gone. He rejects his Dad’s suggestion that she was the one who knocked him out (as does Sharon) All agreeing that Matt likely has Sienna, Nick and Sharon are on their way – stay put.
Traci remembers Colleen not being happy when she and Steve got back together – that’s not what’s happening with you and Cane is it? No – Lily appreciates the advice (especially with all the Abbotts have on their plate thanks to Victor) Traci doesn’t blame Cane. Lily does.
Cane can see that Phyllis is about to work him over. She regrets walking away from him. We make a good team – who else in this town is as ambitious and passionate as I am? or desperate, Cane quips. I have nothing, Phyllis is there with ‘hat in hand’ – yes, it’s desperation. I need you – and you need me.
