Seated in the dining room, Hilary and Benjamin bond over their similar vocations; his business is in revealing the value of a company. Hilary’s is revealing the truth. Benjamin’s taken some meetings – Vikki, Jack (who happens along to wonder what they’re discussing) The truth, Hilary smiles – and all its unpleasant glory.
Neil’s at Lily’s to offer support. Cane shouldn’t have used the twins money to cover his lies. Thanks, but Lily doesn’t want Neil’s money. Brash n Sassy is paying well and Lily’s trying other things (she didn’t get the commercial but there’ll be other things) The twins WILL be OK – they have you, Neil hugs his daughter.
As Juliet goes by his table, Cane thinks it inevitable that they bump into each other here. Have a seat – you should hear this from me.
Arriving on the rooftop, Mariah pauses to flash back to ‘the’ kiss before joining Tessa. Oh, what a great time they had at the festival. The time alone with Noah took things to a whole new level. Same with us, Mariah told Devon she loves him. No, he didn’t say it back. That’s OK, Tessa’s sure Devon loves Mariah. You’re an amazing friend.
Neil’s now at the club with Devon. He just came from seeing Lily – you won’t believe what ‘that man’ has pulled now.
Across the room, Cane tells Juliet everything – paying Jesse for deleting the footage; taking his kids tuition money to pay him off. I got fired, because of you, she’s pissed. That’s right, Cane can’t deny it.
Hilary gone, Hawkman tells Jack that Brash n Sassy isn’t doing well. Vikki doesn’t come off as a CEO in distress. Jack implies that he wouldn’t mind seeing Hawkman dismantling BnS. It’s low hanging fruit ripe for the picking. Hawkman also spoke to Phyllis – she wants the same results but for different reasons. Hilary listens as Ben hints that it wasn’t business he and Vikki were up to last night.
Billy joins Vikki with some mock ups – how’d it go with Hawkman last night? It’s no secret what he’s after. Vikki made it clear that her company’s doing well and not in play. Hawkman wouldn’t believe that – Billy wonders how she shut him down. He said he wanted to get to know the real me. And did he? Billy tries to look like he doesn’t care.
Ben gone, Hilary joins Jack to boast about her commercial. You’ll be brilliant, he smiles. Hilary appreciates Jack’s unwavering support and assumes Nikki’s not happy she ran the footage. She then drops some gossip – Vikki spent the night with Benjamin Hawkman.
Phyllis joins Ben on the rooftop for an update. Your dinner meeting with Vikki was beneficial? The company’s attractive, he admits. As is its’ CEO, Phyllis adds. Ben’s learned not to waste effort on pursuing something that won’t pay off.
Jordan’s at Lily’s to update her that Hilary got the commercial. No, he didn’t film her too – Hilary found the script and did it herself. Lily doesn’t have the energy to deal with Hilary after everything else that’s happened.
Cane’s not overly sympathetic that Juliet lost her job. Yes, his actions hurt a lot of people, tanked Lily’s commercial. But now Cane can’t get a job, his kids can’t stand him and Lily’s asked him to move out.
Hilary’s so glad she ran into Mariah. She’s off to New York to do her commercial tomorrow. Selling brooms? Tessa jokes. Ignoring the insult, Hilary reminds Mariah that it’s HER show. You work for me. After Hilary clip clops off, Tessa jumps up to push her into the pool. Don’t you dare, Mariah laughs as she sits Tessa down.
