Finding his Dad working from home, Kyle wonders how Victor feels about Patty, the ‘loose cannon’, staying in town – or maybe he’s paying her to stick around to cause trouble.
Nikki walks into the ranch to stare Victor down.
Holden, Stephanie and Lily are back at the hotel, relieved that Malcolm’s procedure went well. Where’d the champagne come from? Malcolm pre-arranged it.
At the outdoor cafe, Nick asks Phyllis how she managed to knock Matt out. Yes, the photo’s recent, she assures – and, when Chris drops the charges, she’ll take Nick to him.
Matt awakens to struggle on the floor, his screams stifled by a gag.
Holden’s proud of his Mom. The procedure couldn’t have gone any better, Stephanie gushes. Calling Cane, Lily puts him on speaker so he can hear Holden and Stephanie celebrating.
Jack thinks Patty’s sticking around to prove that she’s changed. Kyle hopes his Dad’s not still planning to use her to go after Victor.
You look well, Victor says. So do you, Nikki replies. After some bickering, Nikki explains that she’s there about something important – our son.
Nick assures Phyllis that Chris will make the deal. It’ll be a real feather in her cap to bring Matt in. How do I know you won’t pull a fast one? Phyllis isn’t doing this – no way.
Patty knocks on the door- I know you’re in there. Matt emits a muffled ‘help’.
