Just in case you're interested, and I'm sure you're not, lol, it is 26 degrees in St. John's and the Avalon Peninsula today, with scattered showers.
Amber and Daniel, lovey dovey in the morning.
Victoria disagrees with Sabrina's exotic menu for the gala. Hmmm, Sabrina suggests they use a caterer from Chicago, Victoria says Phillipe is in Chicago! Victoria wonders if Sabrina still has feelings for Phillipe although she denies it flatly.
Jack with Phillipe! He tells Jack that Sabrina was quite taken with him, in spite of his being involved with another woman. She pursued him! Jack's smiling now, lol!
RS scrambles for a deadline. Whoops, the model for their cover was arrested for stealing last night, won't be there for the photo shoot - that was Jack's model. When Nick asks where the heck Jack is, Sharon says he's at a meeting with an advertiser. (Either Sharon's lying or Jack lied to her.)
Nikki and David over breakfast - they made love last night, but he still has the same problem today as yesterday. He blows her off - has things to do for himself, and until he's all sorted out, they can't be together.
Victor and Sabrina tell Adrian they're pleased with his article, happy he left personal stuff out of it. Victor says he liked the critique of the Pompidieu (sp?) exhibition, how come they didn't buy any of Phillipe Chandereau's works. Sabrina calls them shallow, not worth the energy to look at them. (Liar, liar, pants on fire, lol.)
Jack sees Phillipe out of the Abbott home, gets the idea he ought to talk to ALL the young women responsible for his success as an artist. (Phillipe's an arrogant, conceited ass, btw.)
Amber picks a fight with Daniel about the girl in the picture from Dublin. He shows her the original, uncropped photo. Bingo! The both realise Phyllis photo-shopped it and made sure Amber saw it. He's really sweet, kisses, and her guilt kicks in again.
Things aren't happy at RS as their back-up model falls through. Jack's fresh out of ideas what to do now. Nick says put Sharon on the cover. Sharon flutters at the idea. Jack nixes it.
Victoria meets Phillipe outside GCAC, immediately assumes he's there for Sabrina, but he knows she married Victor. She smells a rat.
Brad approaches David in CL tells him about the game at his place tonight. David passes, Brad persists, along comes Nikki, asks what they're talking about. Brad lies, so does David. Sly old Brad. Blech, lol.
Daniel and Amber arrive at RS, hugs and squeals from Phyllis. In comes Adrian, eyes Amber. Guilt again. Jack has the idea to put Victoria on the cover.
Victor sees Victoria at GCAC, urges her to tell him what's bothering her. She spills that she saw Sabrina's old and very serious ex there today. Hmph.
Sabrina isn't very happy to see Phillipe, tries to send him off. He demands an explanation; she used to call him the love of her life, then she disappeared, got married, latched onto the first man she could. She objects, says any feelings she had for him are gone, she's moved on. She doesn't care any more.
Victoria tells her father about how Sabrina fell madly in love with Phillipe and his talent, but he cheated on her, completely broke her heart, and now she's married to him. She says if 6 months ago someone told her Sabrina could have carried on with another man behind her back, she wouldn't have believed them. Victor says what she's saying is that if Sabrina kept secrets from her, she could keep secrets from him. Yes. Good scene!
Brad's pissed off Nikki cancelled an appointment for him, concerned about the company and the way she's treating it.
David takes a cal from Walter, makes a deal with him to do the "job" with half the money up front.
Skye meets with Brad to talk strategy before Chow gets there, but Brad tells her he might not show. He flirts with her.
Nikki tells Victoria she sent David off to meet with an important client and Victoria is horrified. Stupid Nikki has all the confidence in the world in David's business abilities.
Sharon and Jack convince Nick to call Victoria for the cover shoot.
Daniel gently but firmly confronts his mother about the photo business, that she did that to try to break him and Amber up.
David calls Brad, asks if can still come to the game, Yep. Brad goes back over to the sofa where Skye is drinking a martini, smiles, says Chow's in. She asks what's in this for him, does he want to be king of the world or something? He chuckles to self, says yeah, something like that. He just likes winning.
Victor and Sabrina - what's this about Phillipe he heard from Victoria. She snows him with how much she lurves him, she feels nothing for Phillipe. He buys all of it.
Victoria's cute when Nick asks her to be on the cover, but turns him down.
Phyllis and Daniel again, all about Amber. Not good, he storms out.
Next:
Brad suggests a rematch to Skye and Chow. Seems she won a lot of money from David.
Jack edits into Adrian's article smut about Sabrina and Phillipe.
Amber tells Adrian she's afraid Phyllis will tell Daniel they slept together.
It's bugging me that Jack isn't leaving well enough alone. I really don't want him to look this bad! We KNOW Victor will retaliate, we know Jack will look like the bad guy here, we know the magazine is going to go belly up anyway, so why is he doing this? Stop this, Jack!!
Hey, Shelly, is this a new Skye we have now? She doesn't look like the same girl playing the role originally. The other girl looked younger. Maybe it's just hair and makeup, but she does seem different to me.
Yeah, that's it. The other one was so brazen and over-confident, and I really didn't like her at all. This one seems more human, just like Adam has been softened, and I like him now, hated him before they started making him a nicer guy, and put him with Heather.
Do you think the fans dislike of those characters had anything to do with the transformations?
