Victor is at Indigo with a business associate who is toasting his wedding on Friday and he runs into Victoria who is waiting on her Mother. Victor asks Victoria if her family will be there tomorrow and she says no. Victor says you know how that will make all of us feel and Victoria says she does, but they still won't be there Dad. Nikki pops in about that time and Victor tells Nikki to talk some sense into her daughter. Victoria tells Nikki yes that was about the wedding and that Victor is still trying to talk her into going. She asks Nikki if she can believe that. Nikki says she can and she agrees with him. She thinks Victoria should go to the wedding.
Adrian storms in to the coffee house and informs Colleen that they need to talk. Colleen says she can't and Adrian says her customers can wait a few minutes for their lattes. He wasn't very nice then adds please when he sees Colleen's reaction. He takes Colleen aside and tells her they need to have a real conversation. Colleens says she can't right now and Adrian says he knows but when she gets off work. Adrian says come by my place OK? Colleen says no. Adrian says why not and Colleen says because it's not going to change anything. Adrian says so this was decided before your plane even landed. Colleen reminds him that before she went away he said you have to decide what's right for you and I have to decide what's right for me. Adrian says so this is it you've decided? Colleen says Yes. Adrian says irony is a bitch. You conspire with your Father to kill my book, I'm willing to give us a second chance and you dump me. Colleen says she's sorry it shouldn't have been like this. Adrian says no, it never should have happened at all. He leaves and Lily shows up and welcomes Colleen back and finds out she is working at the coffee house. Lily asks Colleen what is wrong and Colleen says everything. Lily hugs her.
Neil tells Karen he was surprised to see her. For a woman who looks three times before she leaps you sure know how to surprise a guy Neil tells Karen. Karen says to be honest she surprised herself as well. Karen asks Neil how he feels. Neils says that depends. You are back and that's absolutely fantastic but what exactly does that mean for us? Karen says you know Neil I'm not really sure.
Sharon and Jack are going over things for the remodel on the mansion when Gloria comes barging in to get help opening a bottle of gin. Jack struggles with it and he still can't open it. Sharon goes off to get pliers. Jack warns Gloria not to have a repeat of her last performance when she got blasted and went skinny dipping with Alistair in the pool. Gloria assures him that won't happen again. As Jack is using the pliers on the gin bottle Ashley and Abby walk in and Ashley looks surprised to see Gloria at the mansion.
Colleen takes a break and talks to Lily. Colleen tells Lily that she's the reason Adrian's book is dead. Lily says it's not like you did it to hurt him. Colleen says yes but when did logic have anything to do with love. Lily says yes that's a good point. Colleen says before I left Adrian was so mad he treated me like a child. Lily asks Colleen if she thinks if she stayed he'd do it again? Colleen says she don't know. She struggled with that the whole time she was gone and deep down he doesn't see them as equals. Colleen goes on to say that breaking up is the right choice it's just hard, you know? Lily says Oh I know, I've been there. Lily's cell phone rings and Lily offers to not take the call or hurry it up and Colleen says no break is over but call her. Cane wants Lily to come to Indigo where him and Devon are and have dinner. Lily says she will. Cane hangs up and Devon says he'll order some drinks and a very drunk Chloe walks up and says that sounds like a great idea. My two favorite boys all to myself. Devon looks like he'd like to run away and Cane looks totally disgusted.
Victoria tells Nikki she can't believe that she's taking Victor's side. Nikki says honey I am on your side. Just consider me the voice of reason. You won't always feel this bitter about their marriage. Victoria says she might Mom and Nikki says time has a way of healing things. Victoria says honestly, I can't imagine how that would be possible.
Victor and Sabrina embrace and kiss at the ranch. Victor asks how her day was. She tells him productive. Her and Jana finished everything on the list so the two of them can stay in and relax tonight. Victor tells her there is a delivery at the Gallery tonight and he needs to be there to sign for it. But once that's done it's just the two of them. Victor says why don't you come along and Sabrina agrees. And they kiss again.
Jack tells Ashley that he's so glad that she is here. Abby says Uncle Jack did you know I was going to be in Victor's wedding? I have a beautiful dress, I get to walk down the aisle before the bride and I get to throw rose petals. Jack says her Mother had told him. Then Abby demonstrates her walk and says she's practiced. Jack tells Abby that Noah is at camp but he got new stuff for his computer if she wants to go and check it out. Ashley tells her she may. Abby bounces off and Sharon says she wishes she could bottle Abby's energy. Jack tells Ashley that must mean that she doesn't know they aren't going to the wedding. (Him and Sharon). Ashley says no she will tell her tonight. Sharon says it's hard and Ashley says it is hard and when Abby is so far away from her family and when she gets close to here and about that time Gloria bops in and says Martini's anybody? Then Gloria sees Ashley and says Ashley it's good to see you how are you. Ashley says confused. Sharon says it's a confusing situation. Gloria says it's not confusing at all. Jack invited her to move back in. Jack says Gloria is staying at the pool house and Gloria says it's very cozy but I am giving it the Gloria touch. She says she's picked out four new colors of paint for the walls and if you are not busy later do stop by and take a look at the swatches. You too Ashley it's always lovely when you visit us says Gloria. Cheers says Gloria as she exits the room. Ashley looks at Jack and says have you lost your frigging mind? What the hell is she doing here? Jack tells Ashley that Gloria is going through a difficult time both personally and financially. Ashley says so is half the country Jack that's why they have charities. I don't think any of them are named Gloria. We have reason to think she's newly philanthropic. Please says Ashley the only charity Gloria is ever interested in is her own. Besides she got half of Dad's money and what happened with the last Ex? Jack says well she lost quite a bit of that in the divorce and she gave away a lot. Sharon adds millions. Ashley says she's waiting for a punch line here. And Jack says we are on the level here. Sharon adds we think through Cassie's Challenge and the Abbot Foundation among others. Ashley asks if Gloria was hit by lightning? Jack says he thinks she just want to improve her Karma. Ashley says Gloria could pay off the National debt and that still would never happen. Jack says weren't you the one who told me when I cut her out of Dad's will that Dad would want her taken care of? Ashley says so get her an apartment, pay for her rent, but don't let her move back here. Sharon adds thank you.
Neil tells a client he can't reschedule a meeting for tomorrow and to call his secretary and re-schedule it. When he gets off the phone he asks Karen if she knows why he can't do it tomorrow. He explains that Victor is getting married tomorrow. Karen thinks it's fast unlike her. Neil says well you are here and that's what counts. Karen says you know Neil I really think we should just focus on being friends. Neil says OK sounds fair walks across the room and extends his hand and says welcome back friend. Then says hey listen I have an idea. Why don't you come to Victor wedding with me tomorrow. As friends he adds. Karen says she thinks it's a little too friendly too fast. Neil says yes right point taken. Karen says you know honestly I still hurt. I told you I'd stay if you really wanted me to and you let me go. No in fact you told me to go. Neil says yes I did, I did, I did do that I was an idiot. Karen says no you were being honest and you were saying exactly what you really thought. Neil says yes at the time. Just at the time. But I am really glad you are here now. The he says so what about work? Karen says for now I'm tele-commuting. And Neil says right and I'm assuming you want your old job back. Karen says well actually I'd really love my old job back. Neil say yes well when Victor and Sabrina get back from their honeymoon I will talk to Victor and I think I can swing it I do work at that company. I can smooth this over. Karen says you think Victor will be OK with that? Victor was sorry to see you leave says Neil. Really says Karen I wondered about that. And Neil says and tonight I don't want you to worry about anything but having fun...with a...friend. Points at self. Karen says OK.
Nikki asks Victoria if she can give her a lift to the club. I'm meeting David. Victoria says yes sure. Nikki say oh what do you think of the new Glo-by-Jabot Gloss packaging? Victoria doesn't answer her and she says Honey? Victoria says I'm sorry. Nikki says lost in thought? Victoria says she lost and guilt about tomorrow. Nikki says well I talked to your Father this morning. Victoria says as opposed to the drive by with me where he barely acknowledged your existence? Nikki says he's just upset. Victoria says Mom don't make excuses for him. Nikki says look I wished him well and I meant it. You have no idea how freeing that is. Victoria says well you can move on you have David. Nikki says well she has to let a lot of things go with David too. Victoria says you mean the gambling? Nikki says well it was hard for me to believe that, that was all over you know. If he was in a bad mood I thought he was gambling, if he made a phone call, gambling. It was exhausting. Victoria yes so what changed? Nikki says he did and I did too. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt and we are happier than we've ever been.
Brad joins David at the club. Says he's sorry he's late. David says no problem. Brad says Jabot-Retro is on fire he didn't want to wait until tomorrow. David says that's excellent and wants to know if they still have a shot of getting on the shelves by Christmas. Brad says absolutely. Cosmetics and fragrances. Take a look at these financials. David opens the file and says these aren't financials Brad this is the Home Run Pool. Brad says yes for the weekend. Cross to Majors. David says that should be interesting. Brad says you in? David says he already told him that after the Father's Day Race he's done. Brad says I know you did but for something like this I thought you'd want a shot. When you are hot you're hot right says Brad. David kind of laughs like he's thinking and tells Brad you know why don't I let you know before the weekend alright? Brad says sure when ever. David says also Victoria saw me give you that check. Brad says really? David says yes I have a cover but I want to make sure you have my back. David says Brad you even have to ask? Brad says cool.
Victor and Sabrina arrive at the Gallery which has been beautifully decorated and Victor takes full credit for it. He's planned a lovely romantic dinner for her and him. The room looks lovely and there is someone there to serve them of course. Sabrina says this doesn't happen in real life and Victor tells her this is what happens in your life and will from now on. The conversation turns to Sabrina's childhood. She tells Victor how after her Father died things went to hell with her Mother. She used to dress her up and take her out to night spots and introduce her as her sister so rich men would think she was not her child. Zara told Sabrina rich men would not marry a woman with an older child. Sabrina promises Victor she will never be like that with their child and Victor thanks Sabrina for this child and the chance to start over and do better this time since he's not getting along well with two of his children. They each promise each other that they will never be like Sabrina's Mother or Victor's Father. Victor bought her a necklace. One he had made especially for her. Sabrina loves it and says she will wear it on their wedding day. They go home and guess who comes out of no place? Zara, Sabrina's long lost Mother. Sabrina after a couple of minutes goes to hug her Mother who is standing there with her arms stretched open. Zara tells her she managed to make it in time for her wedding. She had read it in the paper. Victor has a total blank look on his face but it's obvious if this hurts Sabrina he won't be a happy man.
Jack asks Ashley if she's sorry her and Abby didn't stay at the club. Ashley says no this is her home. Jack promises to try and keep Gloria out of her hair and Ashley says she can handle Gloria but she still doesn't understand this sudden rush to sympathy and sorry she adds. I don't get it. Jack says it snuck up on him too but he does believe it's what Dad would want him to do though. Because you still think she's given all her money away which still doesn't make any sense to me says Ashley. Jack says you do get monthly reports from the Abbot Foundation right? Ashley says yes and Jack quickly adds remember the 5 million contribution last month. Ashley says you think that was her and Jack says he's not sure but he has good reason to suspect and if I try and explain it you will think I'm nuts just take my word for it. Ashley says OK say I do and she did why would she do that? Jack says to make up for all the rotten things she's done in her life I guess. And what about you Ashley asks? Jack says to make up for all the rotten things I've done to her. Cutting her out of Dad's will, kicking her out of the house, putting all her belongings in trash bags. Ashley says that's pretty nasty. Ashley says so I guess you are atoning too? Jack says he guesses he is. Ashley says Dad would be proud of you Jackie. Jack says Dad always wanted to be proud of me but think I made it kind of hard. Ashley says still not over his death right? Jack shakes his head no and say what about you? Ashley says Never. I still dream about him. I'm a little girl and we're at an amusement park and I'm laughing and Daddy is smiling and it feels so real I don't even want to wake up. Jack and Ashley hug and Jack says he dreams about him all the time too. But you know what? I think Gloria does as well says Jack. Ash she was the love of his life, and all he asked was that I treat her that way. Ashley says I know that but you told Sharon by the time that Noah got back from camp she wasn't going to be here right? Yes I know says Jack. What are you going to do says Ashley? I don't know, I don't know says Jack.
Gloria comes flying into the coffee house and informs Kevin that she got her job back at Jabot. Kevin says impossible. Gloria says she had a heart to heart with Katherine. Kevin says and she says all is forgiven? Gloria says yes but she'll be in a different department though. Corporate Communications. Kevin looks at her for a minute and then says you are the receptionist? Gloria quiets him and says for now. I'll be back in that board room before you can say boo. If you believe it you achieve it.
In comes Lily and tells Colleen she will hang out and Colleen says go, thank you, I'm fine. Lily says listen when Daniel and I split up I was crushed. Colleen says yes I remember. Lily says it will get better. You remember what my Mom used to say, that tough times don't last but tough people do they say in unison. Colleen promises Lily she will call her from her Dad's. Lily asks Colleen if she's sure she wants to move back there and Colleen says not but it's either that or get a room there which she can't afford. Lily offers to let Colleen move in with her. Says she'd have to share her room with her but they can eat ice cream out of the carton and stay up all night and talk. Colleen says she'd love that but what about her roommate. Lily says you mean Chloe? I kicked her out.
Back at Indigo Cane and Devon still wait for Lily while trying to figure out what to do with a even drunker Chloe. She wants to dance. First with Devon then with Cane. But neither are takers. Chloe plays a great drunk just to add that. Chloe asks who wants to dance with her again and raises her leg in a dress straight up into the air. Devon says he honestly doesn't think she could stay upright. Chloe says oh Boo. She asks Cane to dance and he says sorry baby I have to make a phone call. Chloe says he's still mad because she kissed him and she understands why he told Lily. She understands it was so nothing she tells Devon. Devon asks her if it was so nothing when she kissed him too? Chloe says oh boo stop busting my chops. Chloe says come on be nice. I'm fragile. Then she says is it hot in here or is it you two? Cane says it's time to call her a cab and get her home. Chloe gets upset. Take me home she says whose got a home? I'm living in a boarding house. Cane's phone rings and he says oh there's my business call have to take it. And leave Chloe with Devon. He tells Chloe to stick around they'll figure it out don't worry about it. Devon says hey don't leave and then cuts himself off. Chloe says how boring and Devon says you're cool Chloe you're a real cool girl with a cool job who needs to find a place to live. She knocks over a drink and breaks it and Devon says we need to get this cleaned up. Oh Vonde what a think to say. Devon says did you call me Vonde? Chloe is all over Devon throwing her legs across him and hands moving around. Devon doesn't have enough hands to keep her under control. She finally rests up against him.
Victor tells Sabrina he wanted to bring her to a place that was special to the both of them. He tells her it's funny when you are happy you want to share it with everyone. Sabrina says there is still a chance Vikki might come to their wedding. Victor says no he talked to her earlier she's not coming. Sabrina says she's sorry. Victor tells Sabrina he remembers walking her down the aisle to Brad Carlton that he was not particularly fond of but he did it anyway because he thought family and love were more important. I kind of expected the same from Victoria. One should never turn ones back on family Never says Victor. There is no excuse for it None.
Nikki tells Victoria that David will be right down with that file. Victoria in a trance like state says fine. Nikki says it's still bothering you. Victoria says she's having second thoughts and third thoughts. You won't think less of me if I don't go will you? Nikki says put that right out of your head. Victoria says OK that's a relief. Nikki says she's just going to say one more thing and then she's not going to mention it to her again. Victoria says Deal. Your Father has his faults, that's putting it mildly says Nikki, but he loves his children. when you were in the hospital he fought so hard for you. He fought with everything in him. Victoria says I know. Nikki says he hardly left your side. If you would have died a part of us would have died too. Sabrina says she didn't die. Nikki says no you didn't, maybe it's because he sat there all that time and Victoria interrupts her and says Mom you see this is exactly the type of pressure I am talking about. Nikki says I just think you should be the bigger person. You are not going to change how he feels about Sabrina. And no matter who he is married to he's always going to be your Father. So just accept that the way you'd want him to accept you.
Lily text Devon and told him that her and Colleen were in the parking lot. Cane says and we still have drunk Chloe. Devon says yes we do. She's a mess. Cane says that might be but I still think we should find the girl a decent place to live. Adrian comes in and sets at the bar and orders a vodka/rocks and then says make that a double. Colleen and Lily walks in and Colleen says he's here. Lily says well OK we don't have to say. Colleen says no it's OK. Lily sees the guys and waves and as they are walking to them they run into Karen and Neil. Lily hugs her and says this is great. You guys are back together and Karen and Neil look uncomfortable.
Ashley tells Jack Abby wanted to sleep in Noah's room. She asks Jack if he knew they emailed each other all the time. Jack says that's great. She says next to Brad she misses Noah the most. Jack says we miss her too. And I miss you a lot Ashley. It's nice to have all this family in the house again. He says he was thinking maybe they could do an old school breakfast. He's getting pretty good at making Mamie's cinnamon rolls. Ashley says she's love that just tell her Gloria's not invited. Jack looks sheepish and Ashley says oh my God speaking of Gloria leave it to Gloria to put something like this horrible object in here. I mean to put something like this in this traditional living room are you kidding me where'd she come up with this. It's a leaf shaped candy dish I think. Problem is Sharon bought that dish not Gloria. Sharon tells Ashley that she bought it not Gloria. Ashley apologizes and Sharon says it's OK we are working with a designer and we just thought we'd go with a sleeker more modern look. Ashley again apologizes. Sharon says well the pieces are sort of coming in piece meal. Sharon says I think when we do the whole remodel then it'll and Ashley's ears perk up at the words whole remodel. Ashley says what do you mean you are changing the house? Jack says no no we're just updating it. Ashley says really? Sorry she says I kind of like it the way it is. Jack says well I think Sharon just wants the house to say this is our home. Ashley says right I see.
David finally gets downstairs with the file and asks Victoria where Nikki is? Victoria says she's taking a call and David says here's the Jabot-Retro file. Victoria says oh thank you I'll take a look at that tonight. David asks if her Mother told her about my surprise. Victoria says no. David says he gave her Mother a horse and now she doesn't have to go to the ranch to ride.
Victoria says how nice of you. David says yes it's great. David says that's why you saw me with Brad by the way, the horse belonged to a friend of his. Victoria breaks into a big smile and says I'm sure that made my Mom very happy. David says yes you could say that. Nikki comes back and Victoria says Mom you didn't tell me about your horse. Nikki says well I didn't have a chance Athena I love her. Victoria say yes I bet you do we'll go riding sometime. Victoria says and thank you for your Motherly advice I'm going to think about it. Nikki says that's all I'm asking. Nikki explains to David that Victoria is deciding to go to Victor's wedding or not. David asks her her feelings on it and she says she don't feel one way or the other. He's married other women before. It would be nice to have him happy says Nikki. David says just like us and Nikki confirms just like us. And then Nikki adds and if I didn't dislike Sabrina so much I'd almost feel sorry for her.
Sabrina says you know I could get used to being treated like this. Are you going to stop courting me once I'm your wife? Not in your life says Victor. I'll treat you like a queen and our children like princes and princesses. Sabrina says she'd love to have one of each with him. Victor says then do it. Why not. He tells Sabrina that he grew up in an orphanage not knowing if his Father loved him and he promised himself always that his children would feel love. Sabrina says he had done that. He says he must have made a mistake somewhere along the line as Victoria was not coming to the wedding and Nicholas barely spoke to him. So you've given me a chance for a new beginning.
Neil tells Lily and Devon that they are taking things slowly. Not to consider this a sequel but one of those remakes think that's fair. Karen says more than fair. Devon says there's a lot of pressure on kids these days to go steady so if they want to take it slow that's cool. Lily says and Karen whatever happens Devon and I are happy you are back. Devon confirms yes we are. And I have to tell you that Neil missed you a lot when you were gone. He actually made our lives miserable. Lily says yes you don't want to know. Karen says you know, thank you for saying that because you just made my day.
Adrian is looking daggers through Colleen from the bar and gets up and leaves. Cane has been on the phone and he apologizes to Colleen and she says no problem. She excuses herself for one second and it looks like she might follow Adrian outside. Chloe comes back to Cane now and asks where her drink is. Cane says they cut her off. He's called her a cab. She says well it doesn't matter they close the boarding house at 11pm. Cane says yea but you have a new place. Chloe says you are kidding me. Cane says no here I set this up here's the address. It's a small guest house by the lake. A friend of mine got you a deal on rent. Chloe says why you being so nice to. Cane says because this comes with a condition Chloe. Chloe says what? Cane says you stay away from me. Lily walks up to the table and Chloe screams Lily. Lily says Chloe don't you have some where you have to be? Chloe says as a matter of fact I do.
Jack and Sharon meet Ashley and Abby for dinner at Gina's. Sharon wants to know where Abby is and she's getting a tour of the kitchen from Gina and probably cookies says Ashley. Jack says have you said hello to Nikki yet and Ashley says no as Nikki walks up and she says hello. Home for a visit asks Nikki. The wedding says Ashley. Abby's a flower girl. Sharon says oh yes so is Summer. Nikki says very sweet you have a nice evening Ashley. Ashley says you too Nikki. Ashley says she seems happy considering and Jack says considering she got married first. Ashley says you are kidding me why didn't you tell me. When did this happen. Sharon says a few weeks ago she married her ex campaign manager David Chow. Ashley says she actually beat Victor to it. Jack says well considering they ran off to Mexico for a quickie wedding right after Victor announced his engagement I'd say that was a big fat yes.
Victor and Sabrina dance before going home to find her Mother at the ranch waiting on Sabrina. Neil and Karen dance. Lily and Cane dance as Chloe looks on thinking God knows what.
