At Crimson Lights, Devon tried to talk Lily out of getting involved in a "rebound" relationship, but Lily firmly maintained that she wants a date. He offered to take her out himself, however Lily pleaded with him to set her up with one of his hunky friends, rattling off a few likely candidates. He reluctantly made a few phone calls, but reported that all of the guys she was interested in were unavailable, claiming one had moved out of town, another was gay, etc. After Lily urged him to keep at it and left, a cute guy wiping tables, advised Devon to turn on his phone next time or else she'd catch on.

Trapped in the sweltering bank vault with Sharon, Nick spoke warmly to her, regretting the breakdown of their marriage and sharing his wish that they'd had another child together. Sharon played it cool. At his insistence, she filled him in on how their marriage soured after Cassie's death, including his affair with Phyllis. "I wish we could go back in time," he sighed before delivering a long a steamy kiss. Sharon eagerly responded, however she dissuaded him from getting too carried away emotionally. He switched gears a bit and sexily asked her to lie down with him, she sexily complied, stroking his bare, muscular arms. After they fell asleep in each other's arms, someone came to the rescue. Sharon hurried to leave; Nick noticed she left an earring behind.

At Newman Enterprises, Nikki, Victoria, Neil and Michael sat down to meet with Victor, who totally played hardball with his wife, refusing to bail her out with a loan to clean up the methane. After blasting him for treating her so badly in front of their daughter, she stormed off with tears in her eyes. She was followed by Victoria, who stopped long enough to chide her dad. Back in Nikki's office, Jack threatened to pull out of the Clear Springs project, she angrily showed him the door.

In the Newman break room, Devon phoned Colleen to ask for help with a plan that must be kept secret from Lily. When Daniel strolled into the break room, Devon ended his call so that he could berate his brother-in-law, who more or less ignored the barbs.... A while later, Neil came in to the break room, where Devon was still sitting. Neil reported that Lily had called him to complain that Devon won't help her get a date and asked his flustered son to please help her out. A clearly vexed Devon claimed to be working on it. He went back home and happily presented Lily with concert tickets, reporting that he also had made them dinner reservations on Friday, the night of the show. Lily cooed her own exciting news: She has a date on the night of the show with a fellow she knows from psych class. Lily also asked Devon to go on a double-date with her — she'd already arranged for Devon to go out with her date's cousin! He was so not happy.

Sharon and Nick returned to Newman, where an anxious Sharon chattered to Jack about the disastrous NVP photo shoot at the vault. When Jack noticed his wife's missing earring, Nick handed it over. Once Jack walked out, Sharon asked Nick if she thought Jack "noticed anything" including the fact that she was blushing. A while later, Nick returned to Sharon to say "I just wanted to tell you that I love you." She jumped up to leave, but he stopped her to add that he knows loving her is his problem, which he has to deal with, but he reiterated that he still loves her and always will. Just then, he got a phone call, the jury had reached a verdict on Phyllis, which would be announced at 3 o'clock. Nick left to go to his wife's trial.

Michael met with Gloria to say he'd conducted a partial background check on Jeffrey Bardwell, who has no criminal record and his story seems to check out. She was irked that Michael hadn't done more digging.

Victoria and Nikki worked the phones, desperately trying to get a loan. They were interrupted by Cane, who had just come from lunch with Katherine. He awkwardly announced that they were stopping construction on Clear Springs, then beat a path out of the room. Neil updated Victor, who made plans to start drilling. Neil realized that Victor had kept Michael out of the loop. Victor said it was time to get bids for when his wife's company defaults.
