Phyllis watches a couple at a table dallying and wants to kick them out.

Christine refuses and Abby’s uncomfortable. She tells them to try not to destroy anything before she goes.
Phyllis tells Danany this was a private dinner to say goodbye before he goes off on tour.
“You promised me.” Christine clutches at Danny’s arm and tells Phyllis he’s breaking that promise.
Phyllis is confused. Danny knows she went through a lot of trouble for this. Phyllis asks if Christine pitched a fit and thinks Christine’s trying to control his life.
Danny’s sorry and is afraid that though he didn’t mean to, he led her on.
Christine reminds Phyllis he’s not having dinner with her and Phyllis asks if Danny’s going to let “this jealous witch” stop them from having dinner.

Unlike the one she’s having. Abby comments on how things were intense with Christine.
Phyllis calls the blonde boring and says she has no sense of humour. She doesn’t get why he loves her.
Abby realizes that’s what tonight was about. She wanted to convince him that he loves her.

Phyllis will after she finishes the bottle of wine. She asks why Abby even cares.
They agree she doesn’t like Phyllis but she saw how much effort she put into tonight before it fell apart.

Phyllis swears it’s not but now, Christine thinks she’s won but Phyllis will make her wish she never won.

She assumes Claire wants to rub it in her face but Claire denies that’s true.
Jordan doesn’t blame her and thinks being in the Viper’s Nest is harmful for her.
