Wanting to spend time with Claire, Victoria will rearrange my schedule. Sorry, something’s come up with Claire, she texts Kyle. You’re not interfering with her work, Victoria promises Claire.
Kyle’s excited about Victoria’s text – then looks like he’s about to burst into tears of disappointment when he reads it.
It’s Matt, isn’t it? Nick correctly guesses. ‘He’s supposed to be gone’, Phyllis walks off to answer. Hey – you answered, Matt blurts out. Where are you? Phyllis asks (as Nick fumes)
Stephanie appreciates the offer but Holden’s on his way to London – this’ll give us time to see where this goes. Now, let’s proceed to the fun part of this date – our food. Is there anything the ambidextrous Nate can’t do? Yes – juggle.
Coming in from the patio, Kyle asks Nick how he’s doing. Nick’s happy to be back at work. Our companies almost went head to head; Nick acknowledges that Jabot has a clear advantage ‘and Victoria wouldn’t give you the time of day’.
When Victoria claims that she does have fun, Claire scoffs – texting with accounting? She thinks her Mom should be selfish sometimes. Duly noted, Victoria reads Kyle’s text – ‘too bad’ (he had something ‘incredible’ planned) Mom, you ready? Claire snaps her out of it.
It was tougher to leave than I thought, Matt explains. Yeah, Phyllis IS pretty angry. He needs to see her. Why? Did Patty hurt you like I said she would? What’s happening right now? Phyllis is frustrated – what kind of game are you playing???
