At the Quartermaine estate, Ned keeps insisting he didn’t report Carly and Drew to the SEC. Tracy, Brook Lynn, and Olivia don’t believe him.
Drew walks in and punches him, accusing him of ratting him out to the SEC. “You want a war, you got one!” he bellows.
Ned keeps insisting he didn’t make the call. Drew refuses to believe that and trashes Ned as petty and spiteful.

The doctor worries about Trina getting dragged into the fight over Ace. Her ex tells her to slow down. Besides, they can’t tell Trina what to do, no matter how they feel about her choices.
He worries that she may just end up driving more distance between her daughter. Taggert hates the Cassadines, but coming down hard about this will backfire.
