At Crimson Lights, Arturo tells Abby he’ll take the watch he found to the police station. Arturo figures it can wait until later, as they exit.

At Dark Horse, Nick and Phyllis awaken on the sofa. Abby and Arturo, meanwhile, join Jack in the elevator and Jack mentions he has a meeting with Nick. In the office, Nick warns Phyllis people are coming…she needs to get dressed. Phyllis, unbothered, pulls him into a kiss. Exiting the elevator, Arturo and Abby head toward Nick’s office and just miss him as he walks out. Abby goes another direction, and Phyllis bumps into Arturo as she’s leaving, causing him to drop the watch from the park. She picks it up and hands it to him. After, Arturo runs into Jack, and mutters about Nick’s privacy. Jack enters Nick’s office and sees Phyllis’ Jabot ID there. Nick joins him, and after their meeting, Jack hands over her ID…he found it on the sofa under the blanket. He muses about Nick moving on with the person who ruined his wedding. Nick relays that Sharon’s done, and he won’t spend his life chasing her. He informs Jack that what he and Phyllis may or may not be doing isn’t his business. Jack agrees and exits.
