Now upright, Vikki struggles with her zipper – then goads Billy into all but begging if he can do it for her. You look beautiful, he says. When Vikki decides to take a cab (instead of going with Billy in the car Jill arranged) he tells her not to trip on her way out.

Vikki and Billy still not there, Cane takes the stage to introduce the new Brash n Sassy attitude. Arriving, Vikki joins Travis (and is then called up with Billy) They both credit Cane and elicit some laughs from the crowd. All applaud the new commercial; Bare, by Brash & Sassy. Jill thanks everyone, unveils a demo bottle and calls the team back up to the stage to praise them and tell everyone to eat, drink and be merry. All mingle – with tension between Travis and Billy (who Jill watches closely)

Summer’s back at Jabot to talk to her Mom. She’s in with Jack – it’s not a good time, Ashley leads her away. In the office, Jack assumes Phyllis blabbed to Ashley. No. Victor? No. And she won’t talk Jack out of his plan. In fact, she’s all for it.

Neil proves he has no rhythm until Cane takes over with Lily. Devon and Hilary decide to go home and sex it up. Jill chats with Abby – where’s that handsome husband of yours? Home – he has rounds in the morning. Go, join him (Jill talks about love and patience – as Billy gets on the elevator alone)

Victor gets a call – well done – keep up the good work.

Phyllis knows that rage is eating Jack alive – we’re more alike than you think. Hell no, she won’t talk Jack out of his plan – we’re going to bring Victor down together.



Next: Bringing something large inside the house, Nick onto the floor. Sharon giggles. Walking in the front door, Kevin and Mariah’s jaws drop (it looks like Nick’s only wearing a towel) … Keep working my brother but I’m going to be watching you every step of the way, Ashley warns Phyllis… I’ll say this one more time, Jack snarls at Billy – get the hell out of my office.

My Thoughts: The club’s ballroom and conference room are booked for the night – but what about the Founders room and the dining room itself? And if the place is so busy, why are it’s owner and manager at a party elsewhere? Couldn’t Vikki have asked Nick to hold the event at Underground? That place is deserted. back to the club – has no one seen those large tent things they rent out for weddings? Surely billionaire Devon could invest in some for rainy day rooftop parties … OK – I try not to comment too much on appearances, especially women’s – but please – there is nothing sexy about Vikki’s spine – is there? She looks like the inspiration for those Bumpy the Camel books … Half a billion dollars and Abby’s relegated to taking drink orders? … As big as it gets? The Brash n Sassy non-event was the lamest gathering we’ve seen yet. It sure didn’t generate much press interest … What the hell was Neil trying to do? His dancing was awkward and cringe worthy… I can’t bring myself to care about Jack and Phyllis teaming up to wreak havoc on Victor. They just reek. Period.
