Brook Lynn says Chase is likely to return to being a cop in the next few months, and she is happy for him. Brook Lynn says she has her catalog back from Linc, so she can shop her songs around to artists. Maxie asks why she doesn’t appear happy about any of this. Brook Lynn admits she thinks Chase is interested in Sasha, but Maxie thinks he’s only being a supportive friend. Brook Lynn gets back to getting her music back, which came at the cost of signing a non-disclosure agreement with Linc to not speak out about how slimy he really is.

Brook Lynn agrees to investigate it but still thinks Chase won’t forgive her.

Sasha joins them and admires Brook Lynn for juggling two careers, and what she’s done for Chase as an artist is amazing.

She says as a city official it’s her duty, but she can’t do it. She asks Eileen if she can do it for her.
