Kyle (Michael Mealor) and Traci (Beth Maitland) became increasingly alarmed as they realized Patty (Stacy Haiduk) might have outmaneuvered Jack (Peter Bergman) once again.

Jack put a dangerous plan into motion by using Patty’s phone to lure Dr. Markham away from his house, hoping the distraction would give Kyle (Michael Mealor) an opportunity to rescue Diane.

Elsewhere, Cane asked Lily (Christel Khalil) for her blessing before offering Billy a leadership role at Chancellor, believing it could repair old wounds.
