"MICHAEL
Adam went to Michael's condo. Adam expressed his concern over Michael's father's illness and was happy to hear he'd made a full recovery. They discussed past profitable business ventures between their families. Adam told him he's heard Cambias Industries is in trouble and came to offer his help. Michael let Adam know he knew about the embezzlement trouble at Chandler Enterprises and how Liza had also walked out of their marriage. Adam chafed a bit and opined that Michael's father had not taught him enough about business, especially obvious since he botched that deal with Enchantment. Michael offered to bail out Chandler Enterprises if they ever needed it. The two men parted, agreeing only that they knew where each other stood.
Later, Michael was on the phone saying that Palmer doesn't suspect a thing.
GREENLEE & KENDALL
Greenlee checked her voicemail at the office and was disappointed there were no messages. She called out for Carlos, but there was no reply. Kendall walked in and Greenlee couldn't help but point out that she was in the same clothes she'd worn the day before. Greenlee guessed that Michael must have kept her busy last night and Kendall replied "You bitch!" Greenlee was emphatically not interested in details of why she was in such a bad mood. Kendall told her she'd been on the roof, trying to work up the nerve; not to kill herself, but to push Greenlee off, except she never showed up. Kendall was furious with Greenlee for going to Michael and telling him she was after Boyd. Kendall insisted she had not been used by Michael and that he had loved her. Greenlee noted the past tense and was amazed at how naïve Kendall can be. Greenlee spelled it out for Kendall, how Michael had used her to get Boyd's formula and to steal their company and she was too much of a moron to see it. Kendall accused Greenlee of going to Michael's only to get him for herself and that she only wanted everyone to be as miserable as she is. Kendall couldn't take it and grabbed Greenlee's arm. Greenlee told her to let go, called her a "psycho slut", and suggested she take responsibility for ruining her own life. Greenlee did not understand why Kendall was in love with Michael, who was obviously after Fusion. Kendall told her that she only thought she recognized a con artist because she'd been married to one. They argued about Leo and Greenlee insisted that Michael was after Boyd's formula and their company. Kendall then trashed a bunch of paperwork off Greenlee's desk to show how little Fusion meant to her. Greenlee retaliated by cutting the heads off the roses that Michael had sent. The catfight was on. Besides hair pulling and tussling on the floor, they squirted a large bottle of goo on each other while shouting about the company, love and men. They were shocked when Palmer emptied the water out of the vase on both of them. He demanded an explanation from Greenlee, who told him about Kendall ruining the company by sleeping with the enemy. Kendall's version was that "Cruella DuPres" was miserable and trying to ruin everyone else's life. Palmer deduced the fight was over a man. Kendall quit and Greenlee left to change clothes and told Kendall she'd better be gone when she gets back.
Palmer was surprised that Kendall would leave her company and had a paternal chat with her. Palmer talked to her about her partners and told her about some recent fire violations. He also knew she hadn't been around the office much and reminded her of the promise that the company's leadership structure would stay intact. He would take care of fixing the violations only if she stayed on; she expressed her concern over her partners and Palmer said if she didn't care about them enough to stay, he wouldn't either.
LIZA & TAD
At Tad's office, Liza came to find out what he'd learned. He acted coy about her being impatient and not having time for foreplay or even offering to buy him dinner before getting down to business. Tad had uncovered an unusually large deposit made by Gertrude Stark (the plaintiff in the lawsuit against Fusion) immediately after the lawsuit was filed. They both figured out that someone was out to destroy Fusion by paying Gertrude to sue the company. Liza placed a call to Alfred Vanderpool at the bank who confirmed the deposit had come from an account in the Cayman Islands. Tad acted jealous of Alfred and reminded Liza he hadn't been able to say no to her since high school. Alfred fax'd them additional information and then they both knew who was behind the lawsuit, and it had to be because of Kendall. She started to leave to deal with what they'd learned and Tad reminded her she owed him dinner. She promised dinner and told him if he played his cards right, she might even throw in dessert. She then kissed Tad on the cheek, just as Adam walked into the office. Liza gave a nervous explanation of how they were just doing Fusion business and told Adam that things were rocky at Fusion. Adam was very gracious and Liza left. Tad promised to be gone soon and Adam said "no hurry".
Adam talked to the secretary, who later came in with a box of Tad's personal effects like coffee mug and nameplate. Adam walked in to tell Tad he's been clueless lately, and useless. Adam savored the moment and fired Tad with great glee.
BIANCA & LENA
Bianca got two tickets for a concert on Saturday. When she told Lena, Lena was uncomfortable and told Bianca that they can't see each other any more. Bianca was crushed. Lena apologized and Bianca grilled her for an explanation. Lena could only say that it's not that she doesn't want to see Bianca again, but she can't. Bianca wanted to know what she'd done wrong, but Lena couldn't tell her. Bianca wondered if she has "victim" tattooed on her forehead. Lena said she didn't want Bianca to be a victim, that's why she couldn't see her again. Bianca was very discouraged and accused Lena of being a coward. Lena tried to explain, but Bianca understood this was like all her past relationships where the other person decides they don't want her or the same thing she does. Bianca said she wouldn't be a victim because she didn't need Lena.
Lena went to Michael's who said he didn't want to see her unless she had the formula. She told him she would not be seeing Bianca again and he threatened her, saying she'd better seduce that formula out of Bianca or she would regret it, big time.
ERICA
Asleep on her sofa, she woke up to see Jack at her side and gushed about how happy she was. He said he would rather be in her life on her terms than never see her again. Erica then really woke up to realize it was a dream and she vowed that she would not let Jack leave her the way he did. She got dressed, put the engagement ring in her purse and as she walked out, Palmer came to the door to express his congratulations and to offer to walk her down the aisle. Erica explained that Jack walked out on her. After some good questioning by Palmer, he realized that Erica had refused Jack's proposal. She admitted it and said that's why she had to rush out to find Jack, because she refused to let him walk out of her life and their friendship. Palmer was aghast at how heartless she could be. Erica tried to defend her actions, but Palmer suggested that she was the one destroying a lifelong friendship, not Jack. Palmer reminded her that Jack has worshiped her for years and stood by as she married one man after another, with few of them deserving her. Palmer told her that Jack is the right man for her and that walking away was probably the hardest thing he'd ever done, but the only thing Jack could have done. Erica complained of being alone and Palmer reminded her that she is not. Bianca came over, so Palmer left. When Erica told her that Jack had left her for good, Bianca was glad and accused her mother of having the speech to dump a guy memorized by now. She called her mother selfish for stringing him along, with no intention to commit, because everyone deserves true love. Bianca called her mother a coward and accused her of not loving anyone but herself. When Erica figured out that Bianca was also hurt about something, Bianca ran out. Liza showed up just then, accusing Erica of trying to ruin Fusion. She had papers that proved Erica was paying off Gertrude Stark to ruin Fusion and Kendall, she said.
Jack was at the community center, getting frustrated at mundane tasks. He couldn't get Erica out of his mind. Reggie and Joni were bickering while trying to work together on a painting project. Jack broke up the argument and both Joni and Reggie begged for other assignments to not have to work together. Later, Jack suggested that Joni give Reggie another chance because he's a good guy at heart, despite his tough guy exterior."
