Jack and Ashley are in his office, they are discussing Diane. Ashley tells Jack she can't believe he is with her, doesn't he know he can't trust her? Jack tells her that he has no choice. She takes this as an admission that Jack is only staying with Diane for her vote. Jack denies this, saying he loves Diane. "The only thing you love about Diane is her vote!" Jack says that he will "go as far as necessary with Diane to get Jabot back." "Even if it means marrying her?" Ashley asks.
Grace is getting ready for work, Tony is wandering around the apartment. Grace tells him she knows that it was painful breaking up with Megan. Tony claims it was for the best. What he needs most now is a job! As Grace goes into the bedroom to get her briefcase there is a knock at the door. Tony opens it and Michael Baldwin is there. Awkward moment here between Tony and Michael. Just then Grace comes back into the room. Michael tells her "we have to talk." She tells him in no uncertain terms that she has nothing to say to him after the way he treated her in court yesterday! He apologizes for "blind siding" her in court, but claims it was necessary to do this to convince Christine. Grace doesn't buy it. Michael reminds her that they "had a good thing...don't throw it away!" She agrees...HAD...but she can never trust him again! He tells her that before they met he only thought he was happy and now he knows there is more to life than just his work. She says she has learned to be careful who she trusts. Then she tells Michael to "get over himself", she won't even consider being with him again! Tony shows Michael to the door. Outside the door, Michael is still thinking about what Grace just said. Inside the apartment, Grace is doing the same.
Brad and Nikki talking on the phone. She tells him that her life is complicated these days. He tells her to call him if she needs someone to listen.
At the diner in New Mexico, Vicki turns around just in time to see Victor walk through the door. She rushes over and throws her arms around his neck, "It's you!" After a few moments of hugs and tears, they sit down. Vicki asks if he's alright. He asks her to tell him how Nikki, Nick, and the rest of the family are doing. Vicki asks him to tell her where he's been. He promises to tell her the whole story...later. Right now he wants to know "if the rumor is true that Jack has been trying to take over Newman Enterprises?" Vicki tells him that Jack not only tried, but succeeded! "Why didn't Brad stop him?" She informs him that Brad is also in on this, that the two of them were plotting this for months and that Victor's disappearance was the perfect opportunity. Victor says he should have seen this coming! He vows that Jack and Brad will pay dearly for this! He promises to reverse the takeover. "Jack and Brad will regret the day they took me on! They are toying with the wrong man!"
Jill walks into Brad's office, they exchange insults. After talking about business for a minute, Jill says that "the one silver lining in all this mess is returning Jabot." Brad looks shocked by this revelation. Jill asks if he didn't know? He covers up and pretends that he did know of Jack's plan. Jill doesn't believe him and tells Brad that he will never be able to trust Jack anymore that Jack will be able to trust Brad. Nikki is in the doorway as Jill says this, then backs away before Jill sees her. Jill reminds Brad that Jack "stuck a knife in Victor's back, and he could do the same to you!" Jill leaves without seeing Nikki.
Megan and Trish are talking about Trish's possible pregnancy. Trish never told Ryan that she stopped taking the Pill. Ryan walks in, Megan tells him that she has decided it is time for her to move back home. As she is leaving she reminds Trish that she has a "wonderful marriage." Ryan and Trish discuss his job prospects. She tells him this may be a good time to make changes. She suggests it may be time to start a family. Ryan says "no way!" "That's the last thing we need, thank God you are still on the Pill!" He walks out of the room leaving Tricia with tears in her eyes.
Jack goes home to Diane bringing some wallpaper samples with him. He is trying to make up for not spending much time with her or sharing her enthusiasm about the new house plans. She is still pouting that he is too busy to plan their future together. He apologizes over again and begs her not to question his feelings for her. He says he can't wait to marry her! He promises to mark a date on his calendar to go with her to look at building sites. She is happy again and they kiss. Ashley comes home and sees this.
Nikki asks Brad what he and Jill were talking about. "Business" he says. He is surprised that she stopped by. He offers to help her get her mind off Victor for awhile. Brad asks her if she isn't upset by this "beautiful strange woman" that Victor is supposed to be with? Nikki can't think about this. She begins to cry and Brad draws her into his arms. She suddenly pulls away from him and apologizes. He thinks she needs to get away from the Ranch for awhile and invites her to dinner tonight. She accepts. After she leaves, Brad looks pleased with himself. He says Jack should be ashamed of himself for trying to pull one over on his partner!
Jack and Diane continue discussing the new house and their future life together as Ashley walks into the room. Jack has to leave for the office. Diane reminds him to "check his calendar!" Diane stands there looking smugly at Ashley. She wonders if Ashley knows how "good it is to be back on track with the man that I love." She says Ashley must be frustrated knowing how happy that she and Jack are. Ashley asks if Jack is checking his calendar for a wedding date? No, not that yet, says Diane. As she is leaving the room, Diane says "but soon we will have a dream house and a dream marriage!" "Dream on Diane!" Ashley whispers.
Tony and Grace compare how they are both unlucky in romance. Grace says "isn't it interesting that we are both free at the same time?" Tony walks off at this remark. Grace picks up the phone and calls Megan. She tells her not to hang up, she has "something you need to hear."
Jack walks into the office where Brad is standing. "What are you doing, Brad?" "Keeping an eye on my "so called" partner", Brad says.
Victor is standing at the window still at the diner. Vicki suggests that they get in the jet and get out of here. Good idea, soon. He isn't even going to call Nikki, just walk through the door. He says it will be "so good to hold her in my arms again!"
