Dabbing at her eyes and fiddling with her rings, Diane flashes back to that fateful night on the yacht. Markham’s return is accompanied by the ever-present barking dogs. He understands why their first session has left Diane so drained and devastated.
Having the dining room to themselves (Patty’s out shopping on Jack’s ‘black card’) Billy’s updated that Jack met with Patty’s therapist, and Kyle followed Dr Markham to his residence. It’s our only lead. Whoa – you’re not thinking about breaking into his house, are you? Billy asks.
Victor’s just finished leaving a message asking for medical advice when Nick barges in to demand he keep Matt away from the Shadow Room!
At Memorial, Victoria sits by her Mom’s bedside. The headaches are relentless, Nikki won’t blame it on stress – the worse her symptoms get, the more scared she is.
Victor tells Nick that his mother’s ‘very sick’. She has a mass impinging on her optic nerve – if it’s not removed she’ll go blind.
Victoria steps out to request a doctor. It’ll be OK, she promises. Nikki’s scared – I can barely make out your face; she worries it’s too late and her vision will never be clear again. Let me call Dad, Victoria implores.
Trust me, I’ll be there every step of the way Markham assures Diane. When she sits up to thank him, he’s happy she’s beginning to be comfortable with him – we could be working together for some time.
Yeah, Billy DOES have a better idea – go to the cops. Knowing Burrow won’t be able to get a search warrant for Markham’s home, Jack will do everything he can to find his wife (just as she, Billy and Kyle moved heaven and earth to find him)
