Finding her Mom in her grandfather’s office, Claire spots a framed photo of herself (it’s a copy of the one Vikki has in her office) Claire then updates that Summer got a court order – she and Harrison aren’t going to Paris with Kyle.
Waiting at the club for their ride to the airport, Audra’s definitely not disappointed when Kyle updates that Harrison and his nanny aren’t coming. Taking a trip? Arriving with Jack, Diane eyes their luggage.
At CL’s, Billy insists on the four of them having a talk before Adam and Chelsea leave for Baltimore.
Sally and I sense something’s going on that you’re not telling us, Billy begins (which immediately annoys Adam – who repeats his lie that he blew up at Chelsea)
Things have gotten ugly between Kyle and Summer, Claire tells her Mom how she’s tried to help – no, don’t call Summer. Vikki correctly guesses that Claire’s as disappointed as Harrison is. Let’s go for lunch.
It’s none of your business what Audra and I do; plus, Kyle knows Harrison already told his grandparents about the trip to Paris. That’s enough, Jack referees – he and Diane are just there for lunch.
Cole’s ventured into ‘the belly of the beast’ (Newman) to invite Vikki out to lunch. She already made plans with Claire. OK, Cole will tag along then.
Damn right you’ve ‘struck a nerve’! Jack’s tried to ignore his son’s gloating and hubris. He’s not doing you any favours, sweetheart (Audra) You two have been sniffing too much cheap aftershave if you think you can rival Jabot. I raised you better than this! Your failure will be resounding. Enjoy your flight! Kyle’s parents leave him fuming.
Adam’s sorry – he just wants to move on. Billy’s concerned because Chelsea hasn’t been herself. He’s picked up on the little looks between them. When Sally agrees, Chelsea shrieks – what is it you want us to confess to!?
Billy and Sally don’t mean to be confrontational – they just want the truth. Did Connor hurt himself again? Chelsea orders him to leave Connor out of his wild speculations. I’m scared for my son – isn’t that enough?! We’ve gotta go! she snaps at Adam as she jumps up.
At Society, Cole’s sorry to hear that the Paris trip’s off – but it might be best if Claire took a step back. You don’t have to stay where you don’t feel comfortable – you can look into getting your masters.
Seated in the dining room, Diane tells Jack that she loves her job but losing Kyle is too high a price for it. Jack’s glad he didn’t rehire his son and won’t walk on eggshells around him anymore.
The car’s here – Audra tells Kyle to let it go. Not a chance, Kyle mutters. If looks could kill, Jack and Diane would be dead.
