Thursday, July 19th

Nick and Phyllis are having a great time over drinks, a video game and discussing Victor’s downfall. After beating him at the game, Phyllis gives Nick the approval and support he’s not getting from Sharon. The ice in our drinks has melted it’s so warm in here. Pulling Phyllis up, Nick decides more drinks a good idea. He doesn’t have to be anywhere.

Aside, Cane quietly tells Charlie that it’ll be really bad if anyone finds out that Lily ran the red light. Keeping that a secret is the right thing to do – trust me. As Charlie agrees, Nate comes out to update that Hilary’s tough; she’s resting now. Her injuries are severe (he recites a long list) There’s hope, Devon will cling to that. He’s then allowed to go see Hilary in ICU. At her bedside, Devon talks gently – keep fighting. I love you so much, he takes her hand as Hilary murmurs.

Why am I in the hospital? Hearing she was in an accident, a barely conscious Hilary breaks into heartbroken sobs upon hearing that her baby didn’t make it.

Having heard about Ashley’s trip, Kyle not-so-subtly accuses Billy of getting her out of the way (and off his back). Billy doesn’t need to be micromanaged at work. His main focus right now is getting Phyllis back. After Billy heads upstairs, Ashley appears to comment that our CEO’s top priority is his girlfriend. Kyle assures that he can be trusted to move forward as they discussed. Fantastic, Ashley will be in touch – discreetly.

Things are heating up in Phyllis’ apartment and soon the sexual tension leads to clothes coming off and the kitchen island being put to good use.






Next week: This will be our secret, Nick says. Never to be spoken of again, Phyllis agrees wholeheartedly … I’m worried about you, Tessa tells Mariah (who can’t believe a word that comes out of her mouth these days!) …. Hilary doesn’t know about here condition, Devon tells the family. Back in with Hilary, he wants her to be his wife again – as soon as possible.

My Thoughts: It’s a bit odd that Tessa and Mariah are so obsessed with Billy and Phyllis’ sex life. And why exactly is Mariah saying ‘eeeuuuuw’ at the very thought? Is it because Billy and Phyllis are so ‘old’? Or is Mariah now completely repulsed by the male anatomy? Either way, she needs to shut the hell up. If someone said ‘eeeuuuww’ regarding her relationship with Tessa, she’d accuse of them being homophobic. If Mariah doesn’t want to be judged on her sexual preference she should refrain from judging others …. Summer/Phyllis’ condo doesn’t have air conditioning all of a sudden? How convenient that things heated up when they did. Good thing Summer didn’t come home to see her parents defiling her kitchen island. Let’s just hope it’s thoroughly cleaned before it’s used for any food prep. Oh, who am I kidding? The only food prep done in that kitchen is the opening of beer or wine – or the nuking of a TV dinner.
