Hurrying out the front door, Kyle tells his Mom that he’s going to Newman Media to clear out his office – Nikki terminated his contract. Diane guessed that his fling with Audra cost Kyle his job.
Asked to sit with Tucker in the jazz lounge – she makes it clear that their last romp was a one time thing. He was thinking of her on a karmic level.
In the park, Jack makes it clear that he has no interest in making small talk or soothing Phyllis’ guilt. The obliterated the last thing we had between us – Kyle and Summer’s marriage.
At Society, Billy sits, uninvited, across from Adam – hoping to buy the dirt he has on Tucker.
Granted ‘one minute’ of Jack’s time, Phyllis claims that she’s trying really hard. Jack sees no signs of it. Doesn’t matter anyway – to me, you’re still dead. After Jack marches off, Daniel suggests his Mom needs a distraction – like her new job. About that (she implies that didn’t pan out)
Diane sits Kyle down to say she’s sorry he lost his job – why not come back to Jabot? Kyle will on one condition – he replaces Billy. Diane hints that’s not impossible.
If Billy’s telling the truth about Tucker and Ashley’s split, Adam agrees that Tucker could be back for revenge. Billy can’t say what he’d offer for the intel without knowing it’s worth.
Not sure how secure her job at Newman Media is, Audra wonders what Tucker sees her doing at Jabot (if he gains control)
Tucker will give Audra a top position. No, not under him – he’d rather just take Jabot from the Abbott that run it. He wants to hit them where it hurts. Won’t they come after you? Audra asks. Tucker has a secret weapon – Billy Abbott.
Adam doesn’t want to do anything shady (especially with Billy) He’s turned over a new leaf and will work his way up from that bottom at Newman. Billy chuckles – did Victor buy it? Just tell me what your price is and we can move on.
