Kyle, Summer, and Jack are shocked when they walk in on Diane choking Phyllis in a suite at the athletic club.
They pulls her off. Phyllis declares this is unbelievable and exits the room coughing.
Summer trails after her mom and asks what was going on. Phyllis says Diane was obviously trying to kill her.
Summer asks what lead to that. She’s been acting weird all night.
Exasperated, Phyllis says she’s lost everything trying to convince everyone of who Diane is.
She claims she was trying to work things out with Jenkins.
Summer looks skeptical and that breaks her mother’s heart. She blames Diane for everything. As she rants, Summer orders her to stop.
She wishes she could believe her. “You never will,” Phyllis says, ordering her to stay away and walking off.
Back in the room, Jack asks what they walked in. She explains that Phyllis tricked her into coming up there and attacked her in a fit of rage.
Jack doesn’t think they should announce their engagement tonight but Diane doesn’t want the other woman to take that from her.
She just needs a few minutes to fix herself up.
When Jack and Kyle get downstairs, he tells his son he’s worried that the stress has been too much for Diane.
He’s seen a side of her he thought was gone and doesn’t know what to think.
Kyle says that Phyllis using him to get Diane alone must have driven her over the edge.
Diane comes down and apologizes but she’s ready to move forward.
They ask how the fight came about. She reminds him she sent a text. He notices he lost his phone again.
Audra walks around the bar trying to get a drink without luck. A phone starts buzzing so she picks it up.
She wanders over to Ashley and Tucker and asks if they know who the phone belongs to. Ashley is happy to finally meet her and notes it’s Kyle’s phone.
Audra stalks off to find him. She hands Kyle his phone and they lay on the introductions. Kyle seems to find her attractive and they smile at one another.
Summer comes over and immediately points out that Audra is the woman who emotionally destroyed Noah before sending her away.
After watching Audra walk off, Kyle checks his phone and sees he got the text. Jack and his son apologize for doubting her. Clearly, Phyllis was tricking her.
She doesn’t need to forgive him and is still eager to announce their engagement.
