Sharon Tries to Convince Phyllis to Make a Deal
On Monday’s episode, Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) was on a desperate search for Matt Clark (Roger Howarth), who was on the loose after their conversation. She ran into Sharon (Sharon Case) at Crimson Lights, who could tell that she was looking for someone, but Phyllis denied it.
Sharon heard about Phyllis’s coffee order. She ordered two coffees. Sharon wanted to know who the other coffee was for. For the second time, Phyllis denied it. Sharon lost her cool and shouted that she had ordered a coffee for Matt Clark.
Phyllis still denied it and claimed that the coffee was for Lauren (Tracey Bergman). But Sharon could see right through her. She’s spoken with Nick (Joshua Morrow) and knows that Phyllis has him. She reminded Phyllis that Matt is a danger to their family.
Phyllis Underestimates Matt Clark’s Power
Sharon felt that Phyllis owed her. Phyllis disagreed. They already saved each other’s lives. They could call it even. Sharon reminded Phyllis that they had both agreed to let go of their animosity for each other and accept that they would forever be in each other’s lives.
Phyllis could save the Newmans if she wanted to. Sharon asked Phyllis to do the right thing this time around. She could turn in Matt to Victor. As usual, Phyllis was looking out for herself. She doesn’t just want to survive Victor’s (Eric Braeden) attack.
She was consumed by revenge, which blinded her to how dangerous Matt is. Sharon warned Phyllis that Matt could be a danger to everyone, including Phyllis herself. Yet, Phyllis was convinced that her back was already up against the wall. She didn’t know what to do in a situation like this.
Sharon’s Stark Realization
Phyllis still believed the real threat was Victor, who tried to take away her company. Sharon reminded Phyllis that it wasn’t her company to keep. However, Phyllis was convinced that Matt’s amnesia no longer made him a threat.
Sharon asked Phyllis if she missed Daniel (Michael Graziadei) or Summer. Or if she missed her friendship with Nick (Joshua Morrow). Phyllis claimed that everyone dropped her, not the other way around.
Sharon warned that Phyllis is putting herself at risk by being around Matt. He only knows how to hurt people, not help them. Will Phyllis heed Sharon’s advice and do the right thing?
