Monday, October 1, 2007

At home, Jack fumed about Sharon having kissed Nick and worried about the trouble brewing at Clear Springs. However, his mood lightened when Noah gave Jack a gift. When Sharon came home, together they all viewed a digitized photo album that Noah had personalized. Sharon and Jack watched as Noah described favorite moments of the family's special events recalled in digital snapshots. Jack's heart melted when Noah commented that his favorite photo was one of him, Jack and Sharon posing in the backyard with Fisher, the family's dog. After Noah left the room, Jack told Sharon that she'd broken his trust and deeply hurt him. Sharon insisted they discuss the issue, but Jack rushed out the door to take Noah to a friend's house.

Before he'd left the grounds of the prison, Nick learned from Sharon that Jack had heard about Nick and Sharon kissing, when they were locked in the bank vault. Sharon explained that Jack had overheard as she poured out her soul to Brad while the intercom was somehow left open. Phyllis was at first elated when she saw Nick again, thinking he'd come to talk to the warden about moving his wife away from Jana. However, Phyllis was angry and hurt when Nick told her about the kiss. Nick tried to explain that he was still confused at the time, and he recalled that nothing else had happened between him and Sharon in the vault, even though he admitted that he had removed his shirt because the vault was hot and stuffy. Even though Nick pledged his love and devotion to her, Phyllis lamented the fact that she will be imprisoned for six years while Sharon is out and available. Nick reminded Phyllis that they have an incredible connection, but Phyllis met Nick's assurances of devotion with cynical responses.

Later, an irate Phyllis phoned Sharon and demanded that she make an appearance at the prison the next day. When Sharon told Nick about the call, Nick said he felt that Phyllis would calm down by that time. Later, Nick told Victoria about the kiss. When he explained that Jack had accidentally heard Sharon and Brad discussing the kiss over an open intercom, Victoria recalled the time she and Brad had discussed his complicated past, when Brad had feared that Carmen had accidentally overheard the conversation over the intercom. Nick commented that it seemed that Brad would have learned to be more cautious after such an incident. Sharon continued to pour her heart out to Brad. Sharon insisted that she would work out her problems with Jack even though Brad reminded Sharon that she shouldn't feel guilty after everything Jack's put her through. Brad insisted that he didn't know that the intercom was open. A clueless Sharon agreed that there was no way he could have. Brad flippantly conjectured that it was best to have the truth out in the open, but Sharon worried about making things right with Jack, who she said, she and Noah loves. Sharon vowed to make things right because, she insisted, she would not break up her family. Brad didn't respond verbally, but he clearly was not pleased that Sharon remained devoted to Jack.

Jack sought solace from Phyllis, who explained that her feelings had yet to hit home. Jack on the other hand, explained that he was sick to his stomach about the kiss. Phyllis said that Nick told her that he was not in love with Sharon. Jack said that Sharon also swears her love to him, but he felt that he could never forgive her, although he needed her support in order to advance his political goals. Phyllis brought up the fact that neither she nor Jack should do anything that could push Nick and Sharon into each other's arms. Phyllis explained that she absolutely could not make it through six years of prison without her husband.

Phyllis continued to walk on egg shells as she listened to Jana lament the fact that she'd killed Carmen. Jana worried about losing control because, she explained, she'd murdered Carmen while she thought she was normal, as normal as she seems to herself at the present time. After Nick's return visit, Phyllis barely remained calm when an overanxious Jana, having overheard talk about the kiss, offered to help Phyllis take Sharon down.

Hard at work, Karen remarked sarcastically to Neil that she deserved a raise from Jack since she found herself working overtime to minimize, to prospective investors and developers, the fact that Jack's partly involved in Clear Springs. Neil didn't elaborate when Karen noted that Victor was astonishingly keeping his cool about Clear Springs' precarious predicament stemming from Jack's PR nightmare. Later, the couple went to the GCAC and worked out their frustrations with a strenuous kick-boxing session. Their workout, however, also served to bring them closer, physically, to one another.

Victoria and J.T. worked out also their frustrations at the gym. J.T. begged Victoria to accompany him to Clear Springs, and she agreed. Brad showed up and requested security work from J.T. However, J.T. turned the job down, and Brad was surprised to learn from J.T. that he planned on becoming a laborer at Clear Springs. When J.T. stepped away to take a call, Brad asked Victoria about the baby. Victoria joked that the baby kicked like a soccer player. Victoria said nothing about her plans when Brad offered his assistance while J.T. works out of town. Later, Victoria made plans keep her visit to Clear Springs discreet by staying at a private estate while the owners are away. After Victoria returned to the office, J.T. made arrangements to have scented candles and flowers readied for Victoria's visit to Clear Springs, going so far as to explain that he planned to surprise his lover with a proposal of marriage.

They start to argue until Noah comes out and yells at them to stop fighting. Meanwhile, Sharon spills everything to Neil about her kiss with Nick, and how she may have been trying to grab onto a piece of her past that isn't there anymore. Neil comforts her, and Sharon feels a little better. Cane helps Lily work on her lifting form at the gym. She tells him that she's lived here and in Paris her whole life, and Cane tells her about some of his adventures in Australia. He suggests that he be her "trainer," and they agree to meet up for some ‘non-date' dates. When Brad arrives at Adrian & Colleen's apartment, Colleen gives him a quick tour of the place. They sit down for dinner, but Adrian and Brad can't seem to find a topic to discuss rationally. At the end of the dinner, Colleen apologizes to Brad and Adrian separately, saying that she wishes they could all just get along.

She then tells him they need to hold off for a few days before she has to borrow any more money. Phyllis tells Jana that she doesn't want to talk about her personal problems. Jana says it's good to confide in a friend, but Phyllis tells her that just because they're living in close quarters doesn't mean they have to be close friends. Phyllis tells her that she understands that Jana is in need of a friend and lonely, but that she needs personal, private space and asks Jana to give her that space. Just then the guard comes in and tells Phyllis that Sharon is there to visit her.

Brad tells Victoria that he's hoping by the time Abby gets back to LA that she'll forget about the baby. Victoria tells him that she won't forget. Brad agrees but says they don't need to tell Abby that the baby isn't her brother. Victoria says not until it's necessary. Brad says whoever turns out to be the father of the baby, he just wants the best for them both. Phyllis asks Sharon if kissing Nick was payback for her having an affair with Nick. She asks Sharon if she seduced him. Sharon tells her that Nick was confused and that she and Nick are just friends.

But she says they all four need to learn to deal with each other better or the next fifty years are going to be miserable.

Victor then tells him about an article about the ethics committee possibly finding Jack guilty of fraud. Victor suggests that he sell him the casino in case he needs the money for legal fees. Jack tells him that he'll keep his casino and Victor tells him to prepare to lose it. Jack tells Victor that he feels sorry for him because the only joy he gets is reveling in the misery of others; and while he's wallowing in that joy he doesn't realize that he's losing his wife and his children. Jack says that at the end of the day he gets to go home to his family, he asks what Victor has. Jack then tells him that he needs to get some help with his obsessive-compulsive behavior and try to figure out what's really important to him in life, or he's the one who's going to end up with nothing in the end. He tells Victor that there's one big difference with him; Jack says he learns from his mistakes but that Victor has too much pride and ego and would never admit that he's wrong. Victor tells him to remember one thing; that he doesn't forget and that he always gets even. Colleen asks Brad what's up with him and Victoria. Brad says they're being civil. They discuss that they won't talk to Abby about the baby until they find out who's it is. Colleen asks him what he wants, and Brad says he'd be happy if the baby were his.

Nikki worries that she shouldn't travel while she's pregnant. Victoria tells her that she's doing well and is taking care of herself. Nikki says not to overdo it because she's waited so long for this baby. Nikki shows Victoria the clothes she has bought for the baby, but Victoria says she doesn't want them. She tells Nikki that she gave away the clothes to charity after she lost her other baby and that she can't bear to give away any more. Nikki says she understands and that when Victoria is ready, she'll have the clothes for her. Sharon tells Phyllis that she doesn't have to worry about Nick, that he loves her. Phyllis says that she's trust Nick and that she knows he loves her; that she's worried about Jack. She asks Sharon if she knows how much she's hurt him. She tells Sharon that Jack never expected her to go behind his back and do something like this. Sharon reminds her that Phyllis cheated on Jack also. Phyllis says that she knows how much she hurt Jack and that's why she doesn't want him to go through that again. Sharon tells Phyllis to worry about her marriage, and she'll worry about her own. Sharon says that she made a mistake and that she always takes responsibility for her mistakes. She says that Jack is a wonderful man, that Jack loves Noah very much and Noah loves him, and that they will have a wonderful life together and grow old together. Phyllis tells her that she's not buying it because not once in their entire conversation has Sharon said that she loves Jack.

Lily runs into Cane at the coffee shop and asks him if she can interview him. Cane says he'd love to help her. He says he's got a conference call in a half hour but can talk to her right now.
