There’s a bolt loose on the patio doors she needs fixing and he tells her to close the curtains.
She keeps calling his name and she says she needs to check on Faith but won’t alarm her.
They can’t freak out about Cameron. She needs them to remain calm and rational so she doesn’t make the same mistakes.
“I’m not going to let you do that, either.”
Later, she says Faith is snuggling with Borgnine the cat. She thinks it’s time they talked to Victor and Nikki. They talk about the police not being able to find Cameron.

If she keeps things up she’ll be fitted with her own ankle monitor, he jokes.
Ashley needs to save her family and the Abbott legacy which was Jack’s reason for existence until Diane hacked his brain.
Tucker asks if she really thinks the woman married him as a ticket to everything.
She believes it and spoke to the board. Tucker thinks she’s weaponizing them. She doesn’t like the word but it’s the only way. Tucker will help her but they agree it requires finessing.
Ashley doesn’t think she can fail but believes Diane will lose interest in Jack who will be sadder but wiser.
And Diane will move on to the next Stark. “Diane will get a long overdue kick in the karma ass.”
Tucker agrees to go full throttle with her but suggests they marry immediately. He needs validation.
Affirmation to tell the ladies he’s spoken for. She reminds him that the ring didn’t stop him last time.
He knows. He admits once they’re married he can take over Jabot and throw Diane and Jack off their game.
In the GCAC lounge, Diane and Jack finish dancing and he wants to take her home.
They go back to their table and she thanks her fiance for making her freedom possible and for taking her back when everyone was telling him to run the other way.
She gets emotional and wants to be worthy of his trust.
He’ll never love her more, he says, holding her hand. He kisses her hand and says he’s excited for their future.
They talk about marriage. “When can we be pronounced husband and wife?” He asks.
She wants Harrison to be the ring boy and assumes he wants Kyle as his best man so she suggests they walk down the aisle together.
He loves that idea and wants Summer as her matron of honor. His family means everything to her, she says as he questions her.
She tells him about her fantasy wedding that she had at the cabin with Summer’s involvement. He tells her to follow her heart.
