Seated on a park bench, Phyllis may have to leave town – no one believes she can change. Daniel points out that she’s been telling people that for decades. Prove you mean business this time. 1) Summer and I can’t lose you again and 2) how can you bail on this job you’re about to start? Come work with me at Omegasphere.
Yes, Daniel’s offering Phyllis a job – not top level but she’ll like it. No preferential treatment – long hours – prove you can walk the walk. Thanking Daniel for the opportunity (and flashing back to Tucker saying it’ll taker her 10 years to pay back the insurance money) she’ll need to think about it.
Casual Day at Newman Media? Jack comes home to ask. Nikki let me go, Kyle admits. Jack has one question – are you ready to come back to Jabot? Where you belong? That depends on whether Jack plans to reinstate him as co-CEO – or will he continue to ignore Billy’s screw-ups.
You brought this to ME a few weeks ago, Billy reminds Adam. Things have changed – Adam’s in a different mind set. It’s not worth the headache you’re giving me, Billy marches out as Tucker walks in. You texted me to meet you. Nope – it must have been someone else, Billy exits.
Jack would love to have Kyle back at Jabot but it’s too soon to say what will happen with Billy. Then we shouldn’t be discussing it, Kyle leaves to clean out his desk. Since Jack was already thinking of letting Billy go, Diane doesn’t see what’s to consider (bring Kyle back)
What’s Tucker up to? Billy accosts Audra as he comes through the revolving door. Assuming he’s right and things blow up with Tucker, his advice to Audra is to protect herself and stay on the right side of things. I always do, she sarcastically thanks Billy for caring (and walks on)
Back at Society, Tucker asks Adam to sit back down to question the tension between him and Billy. What’s it to you? Adam asks. You’re pissed off and planning to go after the Abbotts aren’t you?
Returning to the club, Kyle spots Audra in the dining room and flashes back her claiming that Nikki can see the attraction in his eyes. She told me to fire you. I tried to fight for you but her mind was made up. It’s over – on all counts – I’m sorry.
Approaching Audra’s table, Kyle’s OK- better than OK. Can I sit down or will that jeopardize your job? Allowing him to sit, Audra wonders if Kyle blames her for what happened.
In the park, Phyllis flashes back to Tucker tacking on 2% for Phyllis’ trouble. Who’m I kidding? I have to do this, she realizes. Looking upwards, she swears to God – never again. She sends Tucker a text saying she’s ready and on her way.
Back at Society, Adam knows he’s had too many failed relationships to judge – but that was the shortest honeymoon ever. What’s next? Why would Tucker share info with the man who blackmailed him? Technically, Adam blackmailed Audra. The man have no animosity towards one another – or trust. Getting Phyllis’ text, Tucker jumps up – gotta go.
Kyle doesn’t blame Audra for firing him – what choice did you have? She doesn’t appreciate the edge in his voice. We didn’t have a storybook romance – we had fun – the sex was great – now we move on with our lives. We both know the truth – Summer’s the love of your life. You miss her and love her more than you’re willing to admit.
In the foyer – Phyllis sees Billy. Tucker goes upstairs.. Phyllis goes to the bar to kill time until Billy exits through the revolving door. He looks inside to watch Phyllis run upstairs. Let into Tucker’s suite, she assures Tucker that Billy didn’t see her come up….Yeah, she’ll get into Billy’s financials as soon as Tucker transfers a million into her account.
Next Week: Well the gangs all here – what’s the big mystery? Victor’s decided that Adam will be Nate’s assistant. Nate doesn’t like that – at all…. Maime tells Traci and Jack that she came to GC due to an important matter… Adam hates to put Sally in an awkward position but he hasn’t stopped thinking about their kiss….Danny runs into Phyllis in the jazz lounge – you look like you just lost your best friend.
