Phyllis watches as Ben calls Vikki to say that he’s networking in GC- let’s meet to talk business. Vikki might have an opening next week. Dinner tonight, Benjamin invites. When and where, Vikki agrees.

Nick and Chelsea are making out under a blanket in Underground’s office. Dean calls to inform Nick that he was outbid on both buildings. I’ll be in touch with some new locations, Nick ends the call and tells Chelsea that he’ll bid more next time.

You sounded very convincing, Victor tells Dean that he’ll be rewarded for keeping him apprised of Nick’s financial activities.

Jack tells Nikki that he was more interested in weenie roasts than fishing. Let’s fire up the BBQ. Nope, Nikki’s excited about fishing. I like your attitude, Jack gives her a kiss (which someone’s taking photos of outside)

Tessa’s sometimes wondered what she wants in life – you’re not alone. If there’s anything I can do to help, she places a hand on Mariah’s shoulder. Mariah turns around to give Tessa a kiss.



Next: Ben tells Vikki that ‘it’s all about the personal relationships that you nurture to mutually benefit’ … We should talk about the elephant in the room, Nikki says. Does that elephant have a mustache? Jack quips… Devon and Noah come back to hug n kiss their ladies – who only have eyes for each other.

My Thoughts: Just the other day, Vikki was barking into her phone ordering a headhunter to find her an executive (not someone fresh out of school) Why hasn’t anyone applied or been interviewed? And marketing is a totally different field than finances; two fields that attract people with completely opposite skill-sets … Did Abby really think her Dad wasn’t aware that Hilary had aired footage of his fight with Nick? Her show’s nationally syndicated don’tcha know!? …. Oh yeah, the cabin holds tons of memories – Austin’s murder, Jack detoxing from opiates, Billy and Phyllis having sex.. So just to clarify, Victor’s pissed because Nick tried to sabotage Nikki’s concert – so now he’s sabotaging Nick’s efforts to open up new clubs. And that’s OK …. Not a shocker after all the anvils being dropped on our heads – but it was still odd to see Mariah kiss Tessa. Poor Noah – he really does know how to pick ’em.
