While Mamie was out with Abby and Kyle, Ashley and Brad argued about what was best for Abby. Both had seen expert child psychiatrists who'd given them opposite opinions. Although both said they'd need to talk to Abby first, Ashley's doctor thought it wouldn't be harmful for Victor to be part of Abby's life. Brad's doctor had come down on Jack's side, saying Victor could do great emotional harm by forcing himself into Abby's life at her age. Ashley said that if they kept putting Victor off, they were going to end up in court. Abby would know something was going on and that her parents were fighting because of her. Ashley didn't intend to let that happen. Brad and Ashley finally agreed to put Victor off until both psychiatrists had a chance to talk to Abby.

As Abby is going to wash up, Brad comes in and spins his little girl around. He wonders why Ashley is looking at him with concern.

John Abbott lashed into Ashley and Brad for the delay in working out a settlement deal with Victor. He wanted to know what was going on that they weren't telling him. Rather than enlighten John about Abby's paternity, the two told him that Victor wasn't going to make things easy. His current offer of ten million was an insult. John said he was leaving to see some bankers in Chicago; he wanted to see some progress before he got back. Ashley was in the best position to negotiate with Victor because of their cordial relationship. He urged her to do so and stop the cash bleeding from Jabot.
After John was gone, Ashley tried again to tell Brad about Victor's accidental meeting with Abby, but Brad cut her off. He was more interested in trying to figure out how to approach Victor about staying away from Abby. The two of them decided that maybe it was Nikki who could best reason with Victor about everything. Ashley had to make a quick trip by the lab, but they agreed to go together to see Nikki. And Ashley reminded Brad there was still something she needed to discuss with him.
Nikki was surprised when Victor showed up at her office, hoping he was there to take her out to lunch. Victor said he wasn't in the mood after the run-in he'd had with Ashley. Her tone had been impertinent and it was clear the Carltons intended to thwart his desire to see his biological daughter. Nikki heard him out and agreed that his requests weren't unreasonable. She also agreed that it was time for the Jabot settlement to be finalized and said she'd discuss it with Ashley. Before Victor could leave, Brad and Ashley showed up at Nikki's door.
Mac was happy when Daniel showed up at the rec center, having decided not to leave town after all. She wanted to know what changed his mind, and although Daniel briefly mentioned a discussion with his father, he implied that there were other more appealing reasons, letting Mac get the idea that he'd stayed because of her. To seal the deal, he offered to take her on a spontaneous picnic. In fact, he had a bottle of wine in his backpack. Mac jumped all over him, telling him that he was wrong to bring wine to the rec center. Plus she hated alcohol. Her grandmother was an alcoholic and she'd seen alcohol destroy families at the reservation. Abashed, Daniel said alcohol was different in Europe. People didn't use it to get drunk; it was a part of celebrations even for the very young. Mac backed off, saying there was still something they could do together. She handed him a broom so he could get back to work cleaning up the rec center.
Jamal warned Lily not to put too much faith in Devon. They came from different worlds. Lily said that she'd grown up in Europe around a diverse set of people; she wasn't just an uptown girl. When Devon came in, she approached him again, trying to make small talk with him. When she mentioned that her mother had once been a runaway, so helping at the rec center was Lily's way of giving something back, Devon blew up. Why was she telling him all her family's problems? Was he supposed to feel sorry for her mother? Lily confessed that she knew the truth about him; that he didn't go to the school or live in the neighborhood he'd claimed to. Furious, Devon warned her to stay out of his business before he left her sitting there stunned at his outburst.

Paul sent Lynne out and got the scoop from J.T. about how both the career and his relationship with Colleen were over. But there was something that continued to bother J.T. Now that he'd heard Kevin would be cleared of the charges in Brittany's case, he couldn't get over the fact that he'd walk free of any charges after what he'd done to Lily and Colleen. He wanted to come back to work for Paul and try to get the goods on Kevin. Paul warned J.T. to leave Kevin Fisher to the cops, but after initially hesitating, he offered J.T. the chance to come back to Williams Investigations.
Nick told Sharon he hadn't decided yet what to do after taking Cameron's job offer. He just intended to make him pay. Sharon reminded him how dangerous Cameron could be when he was cornered and advised Nick to seek help from his father. Nick flatly refused, saying Victor would, as usual, try to take over. This was something Nick owed it to his family to do. He thought the key to unraveling the mystery of Cameron was finding out about the body in the sewer. That was his next step.
Cameron had a meeting with someone he'd always trusted to do his dirty work, Gabe. He wondered if Gabe had either let something slip about the body or if someone had seen him kill the person or hide the body behind the motel. Gabe was offended that Cameron didn't trust him and said he'd never messed up before. Nor had he betrayed Cameron. Cameron finally decided that Sharon had confessed everything to Nikki and gotten her help in moving the body. Something Sharon said led him to believe that the body was in a sewer. They had to find it before anyone else did. If he couldn't get the information from Sharon, maybe he could get it from Nikki.
