Abby reassures her before leaving.

Once alone, Ash tells Nina she knows there’s more on her mind. Nina admits she wonders what emotions Mariah and Devon are going to feel as this pregnancy becomes reality.

Ash and Nina agree it’s going to be a hell of a ride and raise their teacups.

At the penthouse, Moses tells Devon he’d like to kick back and talk. Devon asks what’s on his mind.

At Devon’s place, Moses texts with Faith while on the headphones. Amanda updates Devon that she asked Lily and Billy for a leave of absence.

Phyllis runs over with the other surprise, which is a sash and tiara for Abby. Phyllis pipes up that Abby will be changing dirty diapers at 2:00 AM so should take all the celebration and tiaras she can get. Abby makes a speech and then makes nice with Phyllis for a moment.

At the coffee house, Faith asks her parents if it’s okay if Moses Winters comes to hang out with her.

At Devon’s penthouse, Moses gets the thumbs-up from Faith and clears it with Devon. He’s about to leave when Nate drops in to see him. Moses leaves and Nate’s disappointed; he wanted to hang out. Amanda says he can hang out with them. Devon flinches almost imperceptibly then offers snacks; the baseball game is starting. Nate admits he’s just messed up in the head — he and Elena talked and realized it will never work out between them.

After Nate leaves to check on patients, Amanda observes that Devon looked sad when Elena’s name was mentioned. Devon wanted Elena and Nate to be happy. He wishes he’d been honest with Amanda about what was going on with him and Elena; secrets always hurt the most. Amanda sighs; her life has been one long secret. She’s not doing it anymore — not for her family and not with Devon. He vows to give her the honesty he deserves. Devon has very strong feeling for her even though that gets clouded sometimes because of who she looks like. He struggled to get over Elena, but now clearly knows what he wants. Amanda asks, “Which is?” Devon replies, “I want you, and to know if we could have a life together. If you’ll give me the chance.” Amanda kisses him… and they keep kissing.

Moses joins Faith on Crimson Lights’ patio and Nick chats with him before leaving them alone. Moses suggest he and Faith study together, which forces her to admit she’s going to have community service and rehab — she was drinking and driving. Moses learns she did it after being bullied by a girl at school. He decides she needs better friends and relays he used to go to AA meetings with Neil. He’s not going anywhere.

Inside the coffee house, Victor arrives looking to speak with Sharon alone. He tells her Adam’s safe and knows he can’t rely on her; he doesn’t want to complicate her life. Sharon asks if he’s still in the states, but Victor says he doesn’t want her to know anything about his whereabouts. Sharon just tried to do what was best. They notice Faith and Moses laughing. Victor approves. He muses about how he relied on Neil during tough times. “We all need someone we can count on.”

Nick returns to the hotel to find Phyllis frantically fielding calls and trying to talk people out of going to the GCAC. She whispers, “What do you know about boilers?” Nick goes to see if he can help. Phyllis approaches Sally and asks if she’s happy with her handiwork. Sally denies sabotaging the heat; she lives there too. Phyllis snaps, “Not anymore you don’t.” Sally isn’t going anywhere and seethes while saying if she really wanted to get back at Phyllis she would come at her in ways she’d never dream of and hit her right where she lives. Jack enters just in time to hear and is stunned.

Afterward, Jack explains he came to see Sally; he thinks maybe for the first time he’s seeing the real her. Sally promises what he heard was out of context. Jack’s not interested in anything between them going any further and walks out. Phyllis smirks. Nick reappears and tells Phyllis the heat is taken care of as Sally watches them and fumes.
