Phyllis is thankful that Nick’s alive but doesn’t like the way he’s talking to her. He’s genuinely mystified – how does someone like you be taken by someone like him? Let Matt live his life. Your Dad’s the one who has him tethered to this town. Why don’t you leave with him!? Get the hell out!? Nick orders. Seriously? Phyllis isn’t going anywhere and neither is Matt – get over yourself. After she marches out, Sharon appears to ask Nick if he’s OK. No, far from it.

Chelsea and Adam are at the club to hash out details with Sally and Audra. Having received the OK from their laywers, Sally asks Chelsea how she feels about it. OK – and she can see that Audra’s not fully onboard. Audra doesn’t trust Chelsea and Adam not to screw them over.

Claire doesn’t like walking on eggshells around her Mom; she resents the fact that I’m not as positive as she is. Nobody’s ready to accept the fact that my grandma might be blind.

There’s nothing in the contract that says we have to be friends (all four are happy about that) Wondering if Adam can keep Victor in line, Audra will follow Sally’s lead despite her reservations – where do I sign?

Nick whines to Sharon about Phyllis and Matt, and his Mom still can’t see. He can’t focus on his recovery when his Dad’s keeping Matt around. He gave him a job but won’t give me mine. I’m not recovered, not by a -. Nick can’t stop thinking about drugs.

Claire thanks Holden for brightening her day and making her feel like she’s not crazy ¬kiss¬

Work the program, Sharon encourages. My dealer hit me up to ask if I want more pills, Nick admits that he needs help. I think I need to go to rehab.

Sally and Audra toast to being two fabulous, genius business women. Have you thought about how Billy will react to you selling his gift back to Adam? Audra asks.

When Chelsea and Adam drop by the ranch, Victor tells them that Nikki’s resting. He’s sure she’ll regain her eyesight. Adam has good news – Newman Media will soon be ours again. What did you do? Victor scowls at him with suspicion.
