Cane’s further annoyed with Billy when Reed comes down (so this is the chaos you mentioned?) Lay off, he’s having a rough time, Billy tells Cane to go to the meeting by himself (which Phyllis agrees with) The old man is a friend of Jill’s – he insists you be there. As Billy goes up to get ready, Cane, Phyllis and Reed share awkward silence.
Updated, Nikki’s outraged (she and Victor wouldn’t handle Reed like this) And since JT hasn’t seen Reed in a year, he should basically keep his mouth shut.
Ashley and Paul discuss the break in. It could be related to drugs, Paul will review security footage. Ashley thinks some bottles are missing but will do inventory. Paul will leave his associate on the scene to investigate. Think about who might have broken in, Ashley’s told.
Still lashing out at JT (who dishes it back) Nikki’s asked to leave by Vikki. Fine – and SHE will go straighten Reed out; since neither of his parents can!
Pleasure to see you Nikki, Phyllis is all but shoved aside when Nikki barrels in shouting ‘Reed!’ When he comes down, she threatens to make sure he serves time if he doesn’t get his stuff and march himself out. Phyllis is left with the apartment to herself.
Meeting over, Billy’s enthusiastic and impressed that Cane sealed the deal. At the club’s bar, he grabs Cane’s phone – texting Lily? Shown to a table for lunch, Billy talks about how much fun Lily and Abby must be having in Paris. Do whatever you need to do to get her back. Hey, where are you going? To get Lily back! Cane exits.
Vikki blasts JT for being rude to her Mother – then whines about being deprived of years with her son while he and Mac shoved him aside in favour of their ‘own kids’. JT thinks this typical Newman behavior – blaming everyone else but themselves. You haven’t changed!
Well Reed, I’m so happy you’re going to live with us for a while, Victor greets his grandson when Nikki brings him to the ranch. Yes, he heard what Reed did and doesn’t think it a good idea that he spend time with Phyllis and Billy. They’ll prepare anything you want in the kitchen, Victor continues to kiss Reed’s ass (ignoring his feet on the coffee table) I’m so happy to see you.
Running into Billy at the club, Ashley updates that the lab was broken into – glass everywhere. Paul’s got someone on it. No, Ashley doesn’t suspect Vikki. But when she finds out who did this, they’ll wish they were never born.
I’ve decided to come into the office after all, Vikki ends her call to argue bitterly about their history; hurling names and insults at one another until Vikki literally shoves him out the front door.
