Mason asks Victor to meet for drinks at the GCAC. He offers to get information on Jack, sets up Lamon Archey (Mason). It looks as if Mason is selling out his boss, but all he wants is a “position where he knows he can really thrive by helping Victor get Newman Enterprises back.” Mason has a couple of college degrees and wants to use them. It is not happening by being Jack’s assistant. Victor promises once he regains control of the company, he will in return give him a job worthy of his talents. While they toast to their deal, Sarge witnesses the whole thing. Sarge confronts his nephew over stabbing Jack in the back. LM says, that is not what Mason is trying to do, he just wants to make sure he still has a job when all this is over.

During Jack’s detox, Phyllis questions him about Stephanie. “Of course, he doesn't want Phyllis to know anything about what happened, so he keeps dodging the questions.” However, Phyllis can tell something is not right, so Jack decides to confess everything. Before he can tell all, Phyllis gets a call from Nick that Summer is sick. She leaves to be with her. After Phyllis leaves, Jack searches the internet for news on Stephanie. He hears someone outside and goes to check it out. It turns out to be Victor’s PI guy. Jack immediately figures out that he works for Victor and strikes a deal. He offers him more money and the PI spills all, letting him know it was Victor who sent the hooker and he did not know that she was a drug addict. He also lets Jack know that the hooker was a congressman daughter. Jack wants to beat Victor at his own game and calls Adam but he’s not answering. Unfortunately for Jack, someone walks in just in time to hear his incriminating voicemail. Peter Bergman shares, “now it’s going to get even more complicated.”

Note to self- NEVER go to the Abbot cabin and expect medical attention to arrive...

Jack's doctor has a patient emergency and can't come for over a day (Call me crazy, but since Jack is supposed to be SO important, what on earth could have happened that was more important than helping to detox your very rich and very powerful patient??? Was the Pope ill? )

Wasn't Delia born there too? Or was it Johnny? Or both? I seem to remember someone going into labor out there...

 

[Cinderumbrella]

Also, who is Adam's "source" on Victor's evil doings?? The guy Victor keeps meeting with at the club and/or penthouse?

ETA: I see we finally got that answer on the Friday US show...

I was surprised to see Phyllis' cell phone working. That's the first time someone's cell has worked in the cabin. Usually the medical emergencies are a huge problem because there is no cell reception.

Let's just say both babies were born there!

[wifeofjack]

I've just got to say that Fen freaks me out! Today, the look on his face was chilling. I really don't care for the story line, but admit that the actor who plays Fen is cast perfectly.
