Ashley empathizes with Devon and gently offers to help. Abby loves you and is worried. I’m fine, Devon claims. Ashley regrets not being there for them – she’s been working so hard to get healthy and be present for them. No, she’s not suggesting Devon’s not. Trauma changes you – it can be difficult to come back from it or even to admit it’s changed you.
Audra’s at Sally’s to rave about Renee, a French Canadian who works between NY and LA – he’s built an agency for content creators and is reviewing her pitch. He adores us and will pitch us some creators. Billy’s back from London. No, Sally hasn’t told him yet. He’s meeting with Cane. How much longer do you think you can keep this from him?
A buried secret at Chancellor? No, that doesn’t sound paranoid at all, Cane quips. Is it a person, place or thing? Billy’s not sure. Cane can’t offer Billy a contract – he’s not offering the job as a treasure hunt. Do you know what Jill’s hiding? Have you known all along??? Billy’s suspicious.
Devon’s there for Dom and Abby. She’s there for you too – lean on her, Ashley encourages. She will understand. Take the first step. Devon will think about it. Abby watches from the kitchen.
Sally knows she should have told Billy but he was in a mood about Jill. She’ll tell him at lunch (because she has no choice)
Cane’s frustrated – can’t you just come and do the job. Billy knows that his mother’s hiding something from him – and it’s BIG.
Next Week: You hired me to run Chancellor and now invited me over – if I didn’t know better I’d think you were beginning to like me, Cane makes Lily smile ….Looks like you could use a friend -settle for me? Daniel finds Abby moping…. We did it – we got it off. You’re free as a bird, Phyllis holds up the ankle monitor as Matt grins.
