At Society, Phyllis doesn’t just think Audra’s more of a threat than Claire is, she KNOWS it. Trust me – she’s dangerous. Summer lists Kyle’s irrational decisions. Chill out and focus, Phyllis coaches – let him make the mistakes – and you WILL win.
Claire slows Harrison down on his packing and sends him into the kitchen for treats so she can tell Kyle that her going with him to Paris might not be a good idea.
Vikki, Nick and Nikki are at CL’s discussing Adam’s return to Newman Media. Hopefully Dad won’t live to regret it. Let’s hope we ALL don’t live to regret it, Nikki’s angry.
Ready to hit the ground running? Victor’s seated at Adam’s desk as
he arrives at his new/old office. Give me time to sharpen my knives, Adam chides.
When Kyle finally admits that Summer’s not onboard with their trip, Claire politely declines going along.
Nikki worries about what Victor’s up to and what ‘that snake in the grass’ will do while running Newman Media.
Adam’s determined to run the company he built well, so if all Victor wants is an attack dog, he’ll walk before he even starts.
Kyle doesn’t want Summer’s tantrum to change Claire’s mind. If you don’t go, Harrison can’t go. You saw how excited he was. Claire won’t be guilted into going. No, Kyle won’t ask Summer to go.
Your son’s happiness is at stake – do what needs to be done, Phyllis continues to coach Summer. Audra’s an ambitious snake. Losing Harrison isn’t an option. If you get rid of Audra, you can’t lose.
Loyalty goes both ways, Adam suspects his Dad will cut him loose after he gets what he wants. He’ll do his Dad’s bidding AFTER he comes up with an aggressive plan to run NM. Victor agrees, with one caveat…
With a quick kiss for his sister and Mom, Nick leaves Vikki to express mild regret over letting Dad talk her into going back to work (she did it for her Mom and would do it again)
