Over drinks at the club, Lily and Nate butt heads over Cane and Billy. Devon’s going to have an opinion, Nate knows – are you sure you can defend this?
Sienna’s alone at the Shadow Room when Matt comes in, fully aware that he’s the last person she wants to see.
At CL’s, a worried Nick talks to Sharon about the possibility of his Mom not regaining her sight.
What are you doing, sweetheart? Victor asks when he finds Nikki counting her steps on the stairs.
Devon will have to see the results for himself; Lily won’t stop Cane from hiring Billy. No, Devon doesn’t know about Holden yet. He’s angry all the time – he hasn’t been himself since Dom was kidnapped, she opines.
Nick tells Sharon that his Mom and Claire are resigned to the possibility that Nikki might be blind. With a brief comparison of her bipolar to his addiction, Sharon wonders if Nick’s worried about more than his Mom.
Matt doesn’t want anyone to be afraid of him. Maybe you shouldn’t have tried to kill so many, Sienna quips. Matt’s not armed – there’s a security team outside, we’re all going for mint chip ice cream later, he jokes. Matt has fond memories but if Sienna saw love, empathy, compassion, honesty in him, it was wishful thinking.
When Victor leads her down the last few stairs, Nikki wants to be able to do things herself (and wonders if he’ll kick her out again)
Victor won’t ask Nikki to leave (while she’s in this condition) He gently guides her over to the sofa and sits beside her. You’re capable of anything. God, I hope so, she sighs.
Devon was angry since before Cane got installed at Chancellor, Lily believes something’s weighing on him. Nate will work on it.
This raw honesty is new, Sienna agrees to pour Matt a drink. My favourite brand, he drinks and confides he doesn’t trust the Newmans. Why stay? Sienna asks – then suspects he has a plan.
