We’re divorced for a reason, Devon reminds Lily (who thinks the run in with Hilary was no coincidence) Remember the lies and manipulation – don’t be sucked back into her vortex, Lily warns – and don’t let Hilary come between you and Mariah.
Mariah sees through Hilary and claims she doesn’t care that she’s suddenly available. Devon divorced you – you’re history. Hilary agrees – she and Devon share a long history – you and he are just pals.
Graham is a trusted confidante, Dina wanted his opinion. Ashley lectures – we don’t share sensitive information outside the company. Graham can damage this company by selling this info to the highest bidder – all thanks to YOU.
Graham would never hurt this company, or me, Dina resents Ashley attacking her judgment. Ashley reminds that she tried to take over Jabot several years ago. Yes and Dina almost pulled it off. As for the accusations, she thought Ashley was smarter than that.
At the club’s revolving door, Nick tells his Mom and sister that Dad sent Faith’s furniture to the penthouse. But no, there won’t be a truce – Victor disapproves of his and Noah’s business plans and thinks he’s right about everything. I am, Victor appears to say. Hey, it’s been a while since the four of us sat down together for dinner. I’m out, Nick escapes. Victor’s not adverse to breaking bread with them. After Nikki bails too, Victor takes Vikki’s arm – guess it’s just the two of us.
Phyllis thinks Vikki should take some responsibility for the argument with Hawkman being filmed and broadcast. Hey, that’s the Mother of my children, but yes, Billy concedes it’s not entirely Phyllis’ fault.
Mariah shows Hilary some photos on her phone of her and Devon kissing in various romantic locations – this one’s my favourite. You should have seen us at the club – even the air between us was electric, Hilary taunts. You’re nothing but hot air, Mariah’s about to walk off when Hilary points out that Devon didn’t even call Mariah to blow her off when they had drinks – he sent a text. But go on – believe you have something special with Devon.
After dinner, Devon tells Lily about the tension with Mariah; who’s upset he hasn’t said ‘I love you’ yet. Yes, he tried to say it during the argument but admits maybe he may not love Mariah.
Ashley continues to read her Mother the riot act – Jabot is at stake here (and she doesn’t trust Graham) His input makes me more valuable to you and Jack, Dina thinks it absurd that Graham’s possessive – he cares. Dina’s sorry Ashley doesn’t have anyone but is comforted that SHE’S not alone. When Ravi apologizes for interrupting, Ashley dismisses Dina – we’re done here.
