Phyllis had a heart-to-heart talk with Shawn at the coffee house. She tried to help him with ideas on how to get Jill to come around to his way of thinking. They talked about making her feel younger, being spontaneous, and acting a little crazy like she and Jack were known to do.
Ashley and Brad were surprised to get support from Jack -- he even offered to babysit for Abby so that they could be alone together. Ashley left Brad wondering when she mentioned "room service" for dinner at the Lodge.
Jill gave Jack a bad time about offering to babysit for Abby. In his mild-mannered way, he told Jill to get rid of her attitude toward Shawn. She had to swallow her pride and do what she knew deep down would make her happy. Being lonely was definitely worse than looking like a fool with a younger man. She went back to her office to think about it.
Victor and Tricia talked at his apartment about his plans to move her out. She acted like she didn't want to go, but accepted his decision. She was a little taken aback when he told her that the apartment would be ready the next day. Quickly, she offered to make dinner and, when that didn't work, she talked him into sharing some herbal tea with her. The first thing that she put into the cup were the blue and white pills she stole from the pharmacy.
As Jill looked out the window, Shawn entered her office with something in his hand. She asked him what he was doing there in her normal sarcastic tone and then he locked the door behind him.
Sharon came right out and blamed Nicholas for the argument that caused her fall. She accused him of being happy that the baby was gone. He didn't know how to defend himself, except to deny such feelings. She sent him away when the doctor came back to finish her exam. He went back to work and found Victoria there, worrying about them. He shared his woes with his sister and she reassured him that she felt similar feelings after she lost her baby, Eve. She was sure that Sharon would get over it soon.
In her hospital room, Sharon was despondent and wouldn't accept her doctor's attempts to encourage her about her marriage. To make matters worse, she realized that her breast milk was leaking -- another reminder of her lost child. Before the doctor left her room, Sharon told her that she wanted the paternity test done that they had scheduled earlier.
