Summer arrives at the Abbot manse, rescheduling a meeting so she can spend more time with Harrison.
When she walks in, she finds Claire there. Summer wants to bring Harrison out for ice cream.
Claire explains he’s sleeping after playing with kids at camp. She assures her he had a good day.
All his friends think Harrison is a hero. Summer worries that could traumatize him but Claire swears she would tell her if he had problems.
She senses Summer is upset. Summer doesn’t think she can understand her motherly concerns.
Claire knows she never had kids or parents until recently, but all she can say is Harrison is strong because he’s confident in his parents’ love for him.
Kyle shows up and Summer goes upstairs to check on Harrison.
He wonders what he just walked in on. Claire doesn’t think Summer will ever be comfortable with her being in Harrison’s life.
They talk about coordinating more and she wants to make it easier for Summer to spend time with her son.
Summer returns, says that he is sleeping, and seems a little sun burned.
Claire offers to put more lotion on him next time and leaves to make him a snack.
Kyle accuses Summer of busting her about sunscreen. She bluntly asks him what’s going on with Audra.
He says he owes her no explanation but insists it’s nothing personal. He was fired by his mom and is no longer at Jabot.
Summer is shocked. She’s sure that hurt. He says it opened his eyes.
Audra is running Glissade and it’s owned by a secret investor. He will be her Co-CEO.
“Are you out of your mind?” she asks. She points out he is going against his own family’s company.
This is all sketchy.
He complains about how he’s been betrayed. She gets that he’s angry but this is going to war against his family.
She reminds him that Audra has betrayed him before. She warns that he is a fool and she doesn’t want Audra near Harrison.
She suggests they revisit their custody agreement.
He asks if she really thinks that would be good for their son.
Her attorney will call his.
After she walks out, Claire returns and asks if everything is okay.
He asks her to have dinner with him so he can tell her about it.
In Paris, Traci offers Abby tea. Abby is shaken but claims he’s okay. Her aunt tells her that Ashley lit up when she saw her.
It was hard for Abby to see her mom so vulnerable and alone.
Traci says she’s made tremendous progress and they need to focus on the hope she can put all this behind her.
Abby is trying to stay positive but she has been left in the dark the whole time.
How could they keep the truth from her? Traci is sure she could have handled it.
Abby worries her mom thinks she’d shut her out and remained clueless. Her aunt says that Ashley didn’t want her to worry.
If they could do it all again, they would do things differently. She’s sorry.
Traci tells her that her brothers have always kept her in the dark about things too and promises it will never happen again.
Alan arrives with a scarf for Traci from a boutique.
She loves in and asks him in. He’s surprised to see Abby.
They tell him about their visit with Ashley. He assures her that his colleagues are all optimistic about a full recovery.
Abby thanks him for all he did for her mom and tells him he’s not responsible for what his brother did.
Devon texts her to remind her there is a board meeting. Abby wonders if she’s strong enough to handle this.
She needs to take the call and Alan asks Traci out for drinks. Abby smiles at them.

At Chancellor-Winters, Billy is eager to get the meeting off to a start. Lily has some doubts after a call from Jill.
He hopes that she hasn’t been listing to Devon’s suggestion that he would use her.
Lily will follow through on what needs to be done. The person they need to worry about is his mom.
He reminds her that he has Jill’s voting power.
He’s startled when she explains his mom suggested she might vote on her own today.
Billy offers to call and work it out.
Lily worries she’s turned on her brother for nothing and thinks they are headed off a cliff.
He’s confident this will go through and his mom won’t betray him. The vote will go their way.
When Devon arrives for the meeting, Billy tells him there is something he’d like to know.
Devon hopes this is not another trick. Billy explains that his mom is sick.
Devon squints. Billy explains she has heart issues and they are testing new meds but she’s not out of the woods.
He hopes this helps him understand why he wanted to add Abbott to the company name.
Devon learns that Lily knew about this. He finds the timing of this interesting.
He’s dropped this a moment before they are dividing the companies. Why at the last moment?
Billy claims he’s just being courteous and tells him he can turn this into a conspiracy theory if he wants but he’ll be playing by himself.
Jill shows up on the screen.
When Devon asks how she feels, she guesses Billy told them all about her condition. This does not please her.
She suggests he was trying to get sympathy to get what he wants.
Lily assures her they won’t tell anyone else, other than Abby.
Jill is eager to get this meeting over with.
Abby joins the call and the meeting kicks off. Jill announces we will be exercising her own vote.
They rehash how things will be split up after the de-merger. Devon wants more details on how assets will be distributed.
They get down to the vote.
Billy and Lily vote to separate. Devon agrees to this and so does Abby.
Jill is left to cast a vote she knows won’t mean anything.
Speaking from her heart, Jill says that they are making a horrible mistake. The company has prospered and she hates that they couldn’t make it work.
She tells her son he’s got what he wanted and she hopes it’s worth it to him in the end.
The meeting ends. Devon walks out.
Billy senses Lily is not excited. She feels like they let Jill down.
Traci and Alan go to the bistro. She’s sure the place must remind him of his brother.
His emotions about all that is complicated. But being there with her feels like he’s replacing his bad memories with good ones.
It’s like she’s driving away the negative energy. Her kindness and compassion are rare.
Traci tells him that experience has taught her to look at life’s emotions as a continuum. You just have to accept it all and move forward.
He says that’s a lesson they could all learn.
She’d like to hear more about him but he doesn’t think there’s much to tell.
It’s hard for him to talk about himself without including his twin. Traci is close to her siblings but sure it’s nothing like that.
He admits it was very intense. They would pretend to be each other and usually got away with it.
He was the reader and Martin was more personable.
She’s sorry that he lost someone who was so much a part of him and is sorry for bringing this up.
He admits it’s good for him to talk about this. He doesn’t usually open up.
Traci is happy to be that person for him. He says she can really read people’s hearts.
He downloaded one of her novels, Echoes of the Past, and couldn’t put it down. She says it was about her and Ashley.
He thought it was just like her: kind, loving, and beautiful.
Alan walks Traci back to the apartment and thanks her for the evening.
He feels like he can trust her with anything.
Alan kisses her and then exits.
Traci has to take a deep breath.
