Recap written by Barbara

Claire runs into Kyle at the Society bar; he invites her to join him for a drink – his treat. They talk briefly about her family situation and then about her trip to LA. She tells Kyle that the trip did not provide her with the answer to the secret of what happened with Audra (regarding her connection to the missing art dealer there). Claire indicates that she is suspicious of Audra-  she thinks she’s up to something. Kyle informs Claire that Audra is going to work with Sally, so she’ll be less interested in causing trouble and more concerned with her job. He also tells her that there was nothing real between him and Audra. Claire insists that Audra is obsessed with him and is not going to give up on him anytime soon. Kyle counters that as relationships go, the only person she misses is Nate, who was the only one who ever cared about her. Kyle admits that he’s a little jealous that Claire went on a trip to LA with Holden again.  Claire mentions that Holden is lying to her and keeping secrets, so she no longer wants to be associated with him.
Audra is at Crimson Lights, finishing up a Spectra-Charles Media business call, when Holden enters. They sit down and discuss his trip with Claire to LA.  He assures her that there’s no reason to believe that Claire learned or knows anything else about what happened with them in LA. He tells Audra that Claire isn’t as obsessed with her as she thinks. Audra isn’t convinced. She also lets Holden know that Sally hired her to work at Spectra-Charles Media, so she doesn’t want Claire to mess that up. Holden tells Audra that Claire is done with him because she knows he was holding out on her. Audra says that Claire being out of his life is good riddance for both of them.
At the Newman ranch, Victoria tells Nikki that she is postponing going to see Summer in Italy, but she’s not giving up on the idea entirely. She also expresses worry about how Nick seems off and appears to be in a lot of pain. Nikki is concerned about Nick going after Matt Clark in the condition he’s in. They also discuss Phyllis’s takeover of their family legacy. Victoria is emphatic in her determination to get back everything that belongs to them.
Back at his place, Billy pulls out all the stops with pre-dinner snacks and champagne for Sally. She tries to resist his heartfelt plea to give him a second chance and win her back. When he tells her that he wants them to be open and honest, even about things they aren’t proud of, she opens up about her alcoholic father who was a big dreamer that would do anything to chase his dreams, only to fail repeatedly. She admits that it was difficult for her, growing up with him. She also tells Billy that she feels that he chose Chancellor over her. He counters that wanting Chancellor doesn’t change the way he feels about her, that he loves her and still sees them building a life together. He gets out a pen and writes, “I love you” in her palm, just like she had done with him in Nice, and they kiss.
