At Society, Patty’s thrilled that Jack defended her honour. Now trusting him, she looks at the menu. Oysters? she does her sexy-squint-smile. ‘Too soond (Jack’s reminded of the lake) He squirms when Abby appears to glare at him in disbelief.
Don’t talk to me like I’m a twelve year old who just ate her broccoli! Diane wants to know when she’ll be transferred to the clinic. She doesn’t have any toiletries or clothes. Handing over a paper bag, the doctor has anticipated all of her needs.
What’s going on!? Abby approaches the table. I’m on a date with your Uncle, Patty orders caviar for herself, steak for Jack and a bottle of bubbly. Is there a problem? After Patty gives him permission, Jack goes to talk to Abby (at the bar) Have you lost your mind?! she yelps.
Diane feels there’s something personal about all this. Who are you?? What’s this about???
Diane left ME, Jack loudly tells Abby (then quietly confides that he’s trying to get info about Diane’s whereabouts) She loves you and will come home, Abby reassures. Jack hopes so.
There’s no plot against you. I’m not the enemy – the doctor’s going to help Diane whether she likes it or not. After he leaves with the tray, Diane hears dogs barking as she looks outside.
‘Our finest champagne’, Abby manages to bite her tongue when Patty turns her nose up at the vintage. Raising her glass to their wonderful adventure, Patty asks Jack if he has a toast for her. Here’s to everyone getting what they deserve, he drinks.
What the hell’s going on!? Billy marches into the house to confront Jack. When Kyle, Traci and Abby are also seated, Jack explains that Patty’s responsible for Diane’s disappearance. He must agree to her demands to keep Diane safe (and find her)
The Abbott’s debate Jack’s plan. You’re going to ‘fake-fall’ in love with Patty to toy with her emotions?? You bet your ass I will! Vowing to save the woman he loves, Jack CAN pull this off. Burrow will be low-key looking for Diane while he works on Patty. The family is behind Jack – how can we help? Traci and Kyle are to move out so that Patty can move in.
