Jack and Phyllis;
The two enjoy a picnic in the park together. They have berries, donuts, and champagne! Yuck! Lol
Phyllis goes on another tirade about Diane. I guess her order of gummy‘s hasn’t came in yet! Lol Jack tries to calm her down and tells her that he wants to just celebrate the fact that the kids are considering moving back home. Phyllis tries to make it about Gibault buying Marchetti. Jack tells her that there is no offer or deal as of yet. He is taking his time and not making it an emotional decision.
Sidenote; I sure wish somebody would overhear somebody talking about Marchetti being prime buying option. It would be interesting if Adam or Ashland bought it! Lol
The coffeehouse;
Ashland comes in for a cup of coffee and decides to try to apologize to Sharon. Sharon cuts him off and gives him an earful about how disgusting it was for him to fake such a serious deadly illness and manipulate everyone with his actions. I thought it was a really good rip on him. Diane witnesses this and waits until later to meet up with Ashland in the park. More about that later.
Allie comes in for coffee and Noah takes it over to her and hangs out for a while. They talk about the different things they do to relieve stress and for entertainment. Allie says that she really enjoys her great uncles podcast, the grinning soul. I wish that was a real podcast because I would listen to that one! Lol
Noah agrees that it’s interesting. Noah explains that to relief stress he likes to doodle. Allie looks over and sees him doodling and ask him what he’s stressed about. They talk a little bit about how good it is that Noah is protective over his mother right now. Not much else interesting there.
Diane and Ashland;
Diane finds Ashland in the park. He is talking to Jack and Phyllis. He is asking Jack about Harrison. Jack tells him that any information in regard to Harrison needs to be given from Kyle and Summer. Ashlyn tries to plead his case with Jack about seeing the boy and Jack has nothing to do with it. He says that it is totally up to Kyle and Summer. Diane approaches and tells Ashland that he is a hard person to catch up to. Before Diane approaches, I think, Ashland tells Jack that he took his advice and has decided to consult a lawyer. When he was in the coffeehouse, he was meeting with Amani before Sharon came over and ripped him a new one! He was encouraging Amani to look over the agreement very carefully and find a way for him to still have visitation with his son. Good luck with that!
Back to Diane and Ashland. Diane explained to Ashland that she and Kyle came up with a cute name for Harrison to use for her. I would just like to say for the record, I am not calling Diane DD. That’s my name and she is not like me at all! Lol OK, that is my nickname and not my actual first name. No, my first name is not Diane either! Lol
Ashland and Diane leave and find a bench to talk. They explain to each other their own tale of woe and horror story background! Diane tells Ashland that if he is hoping that she will plead his case with Kyle, she cannot do that because of her own situation.
Earlier in the show, Kyle and Summer meet with Diane at the athletic club room. They let her know that it is possible that they will be moving back permanently but nothing is set in stone yet. Victor calls and leaves a message for summer.
I forgot about this because Diane brings this up to Jack. He also explained to her that there is nothing set in stone or in place at this time and it is confidential.
Summer meets with Victor;
Victor meets briefly with summer and discusses the well-being of Harrison. Victor encourages Summer to control the situation and not let Ashland have access to the boy. He says that Ashland has done much more than just faking has cancer and Michael Baldwin will be able to back her up in this. He also explains the summer that they would like to have a family dinner as soon as Nikki gets back. Summer ushers grandfather that she will be handling the situation and agrees with him. Later on we see Summer talking to Kyle about her conversation with Victor. Kyle agrees that they need to put some serious restrictions on Ashland’s visitations. Summer explains that they probably need to deal with us now instead of waiting until later. It will be harder on Harrison if they wait much longer.
I think that pretty much covers it all. Now here is the interesting rumor/prediction that I am hearing. Some people are predicting that Tara is on her way back and that will be the way that Ashland gets access to Harrison. This is just a prediction and not an actual spoiler. I kind of agree! Lol
I hope everyone has a really nice Memorial Day weekend. Stay safe!
Dee, or as my childhood friends call meDeedee!
