Mariah babbles nervously when Sharon and Scott come home to wonder where she’s going with all the bottles of water. Tessa and I are working on a project – it could take all night, she runs out the door.
Lily and Devon express their appreciation and support for one another. What will Lily do next? Telling Cane was hard – the next step will be harder, she knows.
Cane stops by Hilary’s table to report Lily’s decision. Listening to you was a mistake. No, you getting drunk (and Juliet pregnant) was your mistake. Lily still loves you – go focus on your wife, Hilary insists – fight for her. So you can have another shot at Jordan? Cane thinks they’re both loser. But, he is NOT giving up on his family.
Ending a call with Faith (who’s on a sleepover) Sharon wonders if Scott noticed anything odd about Mariah. No, Scott was busy thinking that they have the house to themselves ~kiss~
Returning to the stables, Mariah offers Alice water. No, no, no, no, Alice sputters in shock (and faints in the chair she’s tied to)
Next: Why do I get the feeling that you don’t think Mariah and I are OK? Devon asks Kevin…. I can’t just make a baby disappear can I? Cane scoffs. No, but you can make Juliet disappear, Hilary replies … Lily’s called Mike over – I made a decision. I want to file for a divorce.
My Thoughts: Wait – Abby needs to ‘make a reservation’ at Top of The Tower? You’d think her Dad owning the place and her name being on the side of the building would ensure the wait staff bends over backwards to find her a table whenever she marches in to demand one. Besides, it doesn’t look like anyone makes dinner reservations. There’s not even a hostess station at the club’s entrance … No, Sharon ‘men like this music producer’ don’t hire prostitutes to make them look more important and desirable. They hire them for sex. That’s why it’s called a sex ring, not a make-men-look-important ring… Oh Alice. I guess the writers are going to stick with Sharon’s recent assessment that she doesn’t know how to be a parent (or decent human being) and might not even think she’s doing anything wrong. The only way she can even slightly redeem herself is if she helps Crystal escape (and takes Zack and this sex ring down) and dies while doing so. She belongs in prison (but then again, so does Sharon and the vast majority of GC residents) It’s cringe-worthy that Alice sends her hookers off to the limo like a proud Mama sending her daughters to their first prom. And are the girls supposed to be flattered to be Alice’s number 1 and 2 hookers? … It’s hard to believe that Mariah was once the mysterious hot girl in stilettos and mini skirt who stalked/tormented Abby (then engaged to Tyler) ….Oh yeah Zack – the ranch has 24/7 security that captures anyone coming and going – except in the stables that houses very expensive thoroughbred horses. If the security guards didn’t notice two women dragging a third woman across the property, I doubt they’d notice your skinny ass sneaking in and out of the tackhouse. Perhaps Abby can hide you in the trunk of her car. But does it really matter? You don’t want to compromise a married/divorced grown woman but you’re fine peddling kids for money? Victor said no strings when Abby moved in – if she wasn’t allowed to have boys over it would make even less sense to move from sprawling Carlton estate to an old stable-hand’s cottage … Odd that Mariah had to go all the way to Sharon’s for water. You’d think there’d be a sink handy for hand-washing and a tap or hose for watering horses. Why waste bottled water on a sex trafficker? … Where am I??? Alice asks. Like anyone within 10 feet of a horse stable wouldn’t immediately know they were in a horse stable. They smell. A lot.
