Diane’s moved to tears by her love for the most incredible man she’s ever known. Nothing would make me happier than to be your wife – but I can’t, we can’t. Jack looks wounded.
Sally hopes Summer will respect her Dad’s decision. Nick’s happy with me. Summer knew Sally was using her Dad, but not for money; you’re using him as a shield to protect yourself from Adam.
Nick’s pretty sure Adam will try to insinuate himself into her life (like asking to go to Sally’s doctor appointments) She doesn’t need that stress. Sounds like a warning to back the hell off to Adam. No, Nick’s just asking Adam to put what Sally needs above what he (Adam) wants. Adam then changes the subject to their father. Victor understands me better than anyone, even myself.
When Kyle decides it’s time to get back to the office, Billy asks him to tell Jack to call him. Yes, it’s important. I’m seriously considering his proposal. What proposal is that? Kyle scowls.
Good plan, right? Jeremy continues to pressure Phyllis. I can’t, I’d lose everything. You’ve already lost everything, Jeremy guarantees his plan will work. And Phyllis will be triumphant. With her coat on and at the door, Phyllis will give it some thought. Jeremy could find someone else but he’d hate for Phyllis to miss this golden opportunity.
Diane doesn’t think it would be fair to Jack to marry him – there’s a target on her back. We’re a team – united – we must stop running from Stark and ‘this’. Now is finally the right time. Please, say yes, Jack pleads.
You OK? Billy asks Phyllis in TGP lobby. If you want to help me, tell me where Jack is, she says weakly. Billy informs that he went on a romantic vacation with Diane. They’re back together and in it for the long haul. Crazy, isn’t it?
Dad’s the only one who knows your true nature? Nick’s skeptical. Adam’s a changed man. You can’t take anyone for granted. He sees everyone more clearly; even Nick. He wasn’t receptive when Nick reached out to him before but he’d like to try again. Nick’s left to look befuddled.
You’re tied to Adam for life now and scared you’ll fall for him again, Summer says Sally’s exploiting Nick’s kindness and big heart to protect herself. This won’t end well for anyone involved. Chaos is all you’re capable of creating, Summer storms out.
Diane agrees – this is our time. Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! Jack slips a ring on her finger ~kiss~
Knock knock. Who’s there? It’s Phyllis. I’m in, she tells Jeremy.
