At CL’s, Ester fusses over Noah – who then moseys over to chat with Audra. She hopes she didn’t make things awkward by telling him he was the one who got away. Join me?
Kyle sits with Victoria at the bar to mention her visiting Summer – I hope that means you weren’t in on your father’s attack on my family.
Jack joins Nikki at Society as she’s picking at a huge plate of fries. He’s taking Billy’s advice to give Diane time and space and assumes Nikki’s doing the same with Victor.
Claire drops by the ranch to ask for Victor’s side on Nikki moving out and whether he orchestrated Diane leaving Jack (as Kyle claims)
Noah and Audra are having a nice chat when Ester brings Noah’s latte over – he likes extra foamy too; “twinsies”, she has a twinkle in her eye. Noah tells Audra and he and Sienna are opening a Shadow Room in GC.
Sorry to hear about Diane and Jack, Victoria denies her father had anything to do with Jack’s poor choice with Patty.
Nikki can’t see anything changing between her and Victor – that’s why she’s asked Victoria to go pick up some of her things.
Denying he’s anything like Jordan, Victor would do anything to get his companies back – he doesn’t give a damn what it costs. The ends don’t always justify the means, Claire knows Victor’s anger isn’t just about business, it’s personal.
Victoria and Kyle argue over pretty much everything. There’s no proof that Jack was even drugged – he made a choice, she continues to defend her father.
Nikki lists what she misses about the ranch, including Victor. Jack’s sure Victor won’t be the one to reach out first.
What if Billy and Phyllis called your bluff? Claire wonders – Would you have hurt Jack? Not denying it, Victor learned to play dirty growing up in an orphanage.
Noah and Audra are reminiscing about the good old times in London. Yes, he does think about it sometimes, but it’s hard not to go to the dark part. She hopes he remembers the good times.
Sienna watches from the door as Audra wonders what would have happened if she hadn’t lost the baby. As she takes his hand across the table, Sienna arrives to kiss Noah – a lot.
Victor tells Claire that he’ll use Chancellor to go after Phyllis.
Jack’s not ready to talk about the woman who was on the yacht with him. Nikki was shocked to run into Patty. Was it her? Did something happen?
Victoria admits her father’s machinations can be extreme – but, Jack could have said no. Maybe Patty was the one who drugged him. Erupting, Kyle asks the same question he asked Claire – will the Newmans never condemn Victor!? You promised me on New Year’s Eve that you’d try to keep the peace between our families. At best you’re turning a blind eye, at worst you’re complicit! Diane appears to say ‘you’re not wrong’.
