On the CL’s patio, Daniel thinks a fake witness could make matters worse. Summer’s determined to find the EMT, Carson and pay him to say that he witnessed Mom acting in self defense.
Victor’s barking into his phone – find out what Judges are doing arraignments today. Nikki joins him in the office – she’s sure Mike will get Nick bailed out as soon as possible. When Victor asks how Nate’s doing, she thinks he’s doing a good job – I hear you’ve taken him under your wing.
Having drinks at the GCAC bar, Nate and Vikki both report having a productive day – we got a lot accomplished during our ‘private meeting’ in the corporate suite upstairs. Checking her phone, Vikki tells Nate that Nick’s been arrested.
Wheeling her luggage into the living room, Faith doesn’t want to leave her Mom alone (with her Dad in jail) When Chance comes knocking, Faith answers the door to shout – how could you arrest my father!?
In the visiting room, Nick’s furious – get me out of here! NOW! Mike will have him arraigned later today. But, seeing how wound up Nick is, this might be the safest place for him.

Paying someone to lie to the authorities is a bad idea, you can’t help Mom if you’re in jail too. It won’t work anyway, Daniel concludes. If that’s his attitude, Summer doesn’t even want his help.
Mike knows all about Cameron. He was the first one Sharon confided in all those years ago. You’ve got an hour or so to calm down, he tells Nick. He, Chance and Victor will protect Sharon. Nick worries that once Cameron puts his plan in motion there may be no stopping him.
Chance explains to Faith and Sharon why Nick’s in jail. He’ll protect Sharon while a plain-clothed officer drives Faith to the airport and escorts her to the gate. Promising to call her Mom as soon as she’s onboard and in her seat, Faith gives her a goodbye hug. I love you.
Chance has no intention of leaving Sharon alone. As they discuss Faith and Dom, someone comes to the door. It’s OK, just Mike.
Now alone on the patio, Summer puts her videochat with Phyllis on speaker. Feeling guilty for leading Kyle to her room, she shares her plan to find the EMT. No, Phyllis will take care of this on her own. Go fix your marriage.
Joining her parents at Newman, Vikki (with Nate) only seems concerned about how Nick’s arrest will reflect on the company. She announces that until this is conflict is resolved and he clears his name, she’s asking Nick to take a leave of absence.
