Amanda complains that Devon’s apology was overdue but not satisfying because it came from pity. Phyllis’ too. Now here’s Billy; checking on her for the second time tonight. Billy gets it – he’s not offering pity, he’s offering support. Amanda thought they were friends too but now realizes Billy was using her as an escape from his life. I was your enabler. Our friendship almost cost Vikki her life. Billy may be OK with that but Amanda feels awful.
Abby gives her second in command a list of the rooms with no heat. Some guests can be moved but we can’t accommodate everyone and we can’t send them out in this storm. Where is Chance? she’s even more irritated. Who wants sandwiches? he reappears to make her swoon and calm the crowd. He’s not the kind of guy who’d bail on Abby.
Back at the Chancellor estate, a call from Ester has the Mike, Kevin and Chloe howling. Less amused, Lauren tells Mike that with Bella out for the night with Ester, they should go home.
Still at Society, Theo’s sarcasm continues – you crashed the company car? Kyle agrees with Lola – it’s going to be a long night if the boys keep it up. Offering food, Lola’s horrified to hear that Kyle and Summer were on their way to TGP (the competition) After she marches into the kitchen, Theo takes some more swipes at Kyle (who’s reigned in by Summer)
When Theo comes into the kitchen, Lola jokes – it had to be those two, didn’t it? What fun. She knows she shouldn’t care – but really; I’m making dinner for my soon to be ex husband and his girlfriend. Whatever I can do to make it better… Lola throws Theo against the fridge for a kiss.
With goodbyes, the Baldwins leave Chloe to waste no time to douse Kevin’s hopes of getting lucky.
Mission accomplished, Billy does indeed feel bad. You’re not my enabler – I thought you might be my … Your what? Amanda coaxes. My answer, Billy says simply.
In the office, Ashley’s having a joyous but heartbreaking chat with Dina; who te11s her to 1ean on her sister and brother – when Jack bursts in with a tray of coffee and snacks from the break room.
In Chance’s suite, Abby thanks him for being there when she needed him – and wants to show him how appreciative she is ~kiss~
Lo1a just needed to release some tension and hopes Theo’s OK with it being over. He thinks he’ll survive and that the night would have gone differently if those two hadn’t shown up. As Lola starts making food, Theo goes out to tell Kyle and Summer that food will be ready soon and we’re going to be stuck with each other for a while.
Amanda can’t be Billy’s answer – don’t put this on me. Taking her hand, Billy insists he’s being honest – he meant what he said.
Ashley’s glad she and Jack are stuck together in this storm – to have a good talk about Mother. She’s sorry she hasn’t been there to help but being in Paris actually makes her feel closer to Dina.
Chloe’s indigestion gone, she decides it’s time to go up to sleep. Kevin pauses to share the good news that he’s got some freelance money coming in (which will go to the kids college fund) And he’s sorry he ate sushi. When the Baldwins return to say the weather’s too bad to drive in, Chloe announces that she’s in labour.
