At the penthouse, Nikki and Victor returned from dinner and shared their concerns about the kids. They recalled their good times and no matter how much they told themselves that they shouldn't let it happen, things ignited between them.

After talking with Diego, Billy recalled that it had been a long time since he and Mac discussed their feelings about sex.

At Jabot, Warton told Sean that he has a friend who needs a job. Sean promised to find something and give her a call. When Jill returned to the board room to chastise him, Sean gave her some perspective on people like Larry and won her over. This time they locked the door to the board room so that they could be alone.
