At the park, Nick swooped in and picked up Christian and asked if uncle Adam had been telling him funny jokes. Christian stated that Adam said he was his dad. “It wasn’t a joke, son,” Adam replied. Nick asked Monique to take Christian to get a snack. Adam protested because his court-appointed visit was for the whole day. Nick snapped that what Adam didn’t know was that Christian could only take so much heat and sun, before he needed a break. Adam stalked off and sent a text to someone. Nick promised Christian that he’d see him at Crimson Lights later.

At their apartment, Kyle kissed Lola. She reminded him that he told Jack he was working from home today. He replied that this was research – she was wearing Jabot lipstick and he was testing its durability and kissability. He told her that Mariah was throwing a joint bachelor-bachelorette party. While she said that was great, she didn’t seem that happy, and he assumed that it was because of Celeste, and he said he’d have Mariah cancel. Lola felt that they deserved to celebrate, and she said she wouldn’t let her mom steal any more joy from the experience. Kyle and Lola ran into Nate at Crimson Lights, and they thanked him for what he did for Lola. He didn’t think he could take all the credit, because he believed that the love and support she received from her family and friends helped. He told her not to take it for granted. After Lola left, Theo arrived, and he noted that Phyllis had yanked him away before he could get a guest list for Kyle’s bachelor party. He mentioned that Phyllis was pissed at Kyle because of what he did to Summer. Kyle figured she’d have someone else in her cross hairs next week, but Theo thought she seemed like the type to hold a grudge. Kyle warned Theo not to put crazy ideas about him in Phyllis’ head. Theo asked Kyle for a guest list again, and when Kyle said he didn’t want Theo throwing him a party, Theo realized Kyle was still upset about the thing with Celeste. Theo claimed that he only answered Celeste’s questions, but Kyle thought Theo was full of it. Theo asked if they’d ever be friends again. Kyle stated that he’d changed, but Theo said no one, including Celeste and Phyllis, bought Kyle’s squeaky clean act. Kyle demanded to know what Theo told Celeste. Theo said to chill – he still had Kyle’s back even if Kyle was being a jerk. “Keep your mouth shut about New York,” Kyle ordered.

At Society, Tessa jotted down lyrics for a song that she was writing. She asked Abby’s opinion on rhyming Lola with guacamol-a. Abby was confused, and Tessa explained that she was writing a song for Kyle and Lola’s bachelor party. Abby asked since when Lola’s bachelorette party was a co-ed event with goofy songs. “Since Mariah’s planning it,” Tessa replied. Abby interrogated Tessa about the party. Later, when Nate arrived for takeout, Abby vented to him. She felt that she’d been a supportive and respectful maid of honor, but she’d been relegated to being a guest at a party that she should be throwing. Abby grumbled that it was fine if Lola and Kyle wanted a stupid co-ed party with goofy songs. She told Nate that she’d need a date, so she’d tell him when the party was. “Okay…” Nate responded, sounding uncertain. She thought it was ridiculous that she had to find out about the party from someone else, and she rushed off.

At Crimson Lights, Mariah told Sharon that she was throwing a Miami themed party for Lola and Kyle. She asked Sharon to come. Sharon thought it’d be nice to celebrate two people in love and to ease back into the social scene. “Um, actually,” Mariah started, but before she got the chance to finish, Sharon’s phone pinged – it was Adam requesting her help at the park.

Back at Chancellor Park, Christian said “Bye, Daddy,” and Adam and Nick both responded. After Christian was gone, Nick and Adam argued about whether what Adam did was harmful to Christian. Nick felt that Adam was so eager to make him look bad that he was willing to hurt Christian. Adam contended that Christian didn’t look hurt. He said they were having a great time until Nick showed up and spoiled it. “Only you would think blowing up a little boy’s life would be fun. You can’t just throw something like that at a little kid, man. It could be seriously traumatizing,” Nick stated. Adam noted that he wasn’t the one who made a scene in front of Christian. Nick felt that he’d been acting in Christian’s best interest. Adam said that Nick was out of line. He said he had every right to go off on Nick, but he’d restrained himself, because unlike Nick, he put his son first. Nick said this wouldn’t be happening if Adam put Christian first. They argued about which one of them was Christian’s father. Adam planned to continue to tell Christian that that he was his father. Nick thought Adam only cared about claiming Christian like a possession. Nick noted that he took care of Christian when he had the flu, made sure he brushed his teeth and put him to bed at night. “Because I wasn’t around to take care of him. All right. You really stepped up, Uncle Nick. And I do appreciate that. But Christian deserves to be raised by his real father,” Adam stated. Nick argued that blood didn’t make a parent. Adam noted that Victor could attest to that. He was surprised Victor hadn’t thrown in with Nick on this. Nick snarled that he fought his own battles. Adam countered with a comment about Dark Horse. Nick said Adam bought a bank note with Victoria’s money, then she and Phyllis gutted Dark Horse – he didn't have Christian and he had a worthless company. Adam was satisfied because he’d double the return on his investment and because all Phyllis got for her betrayal was a rundown hotel in Detroit. He said Phyllis and Victoria weren’t as smart as they thought, but they were smarter than Nick.

Adam noted that Sage fooled Nick into thinking Christian was his. Nick said she wanted a father for her child who’d never deny him. “She needed someone to believe her lie. Enter big brother. The easiest guy in the world to outsmart. We all knew the truth before you. I mean, me, Sage, Dad. Even Chelsea lied to you,” Adam wasn’t surprised that Nick took Chelsea back, because Nick was the world’s doormat. “Wives, exes, kids. Even your loyal sister,” Adam stated. Nick replied that relationships were complex, but Adam wouldn’t know that because no one gave a damn about him. Adam said he’d have to celebrate winning custody of Christian alone. Adam vowed to cut Christian out of Nick’s life, but Nick was adamant that Adam could never change the way Christian felt about him. “I will rip him away from you so fast and hard you won’t recognize him, Nick,” Adam snarled. Nick punched Adam in the face. Adam fell and Nick punched him again. Sharon ran up and yelled at Nick. Nick asked if she was taking Adam’s side. She noted that he’d been pummeling Adam. Nick warned Adam that this was just a taste of how far he’d go if Adam kept messing with his son. Nick left. Adam thanked Sharon and tried to leave, but she insisted that he stay so she could check him out. He had a couple of cuts on his face. He said he was glad that Christian wasn’t there for this. Sharon was sure that neither Nick nor Adam would hurt Christian. Adam said he wouldn’t.

Nick went to Crimson Lights and kissed Christian on the head, then he pulled Monique aside. She apologized for what happened with Adam, but he told her that no one could control what his brother said. He appreciated what she was doing for Christian. Nick said he was trying to follow the rules, but he had to make sure Christian was okay. Nick went over and asked Christian if he was upset by what his uncle Adam said. Christian was not upset. “You’re my daddy,” he stated. Nick promised that he’d always protect Christian. They said they loved each other and hugged. Nick left the table, but he lingered in the doorway.

Mariah went to Devon’s place. He asked how things were going at Power Communications, and she said they were going well. She asked if she could rent the rooftop of the Club for Kyle and Lola’s party. He was sure they could work something out. Devon liked the cooking video of Lola that Mariah sent, and he asked her to work on a follow up. She said she would as soon as Lola was back from her honeymoon. She showed him some work she did, and she thought he hated what she’d done, but he thought she was doing an amazing job. Elena came home, exhausted after her shower. Devon offered her a massage afterward. Mariah told her to make sure Devon did her feet, and Elena said he always did. She went upstairs. Mariah noted that it seemed like things were going well for Devon and Elena. He told her that he and Elena were officially living together. Mariah was happy, and she hugged him. After Mariah left, Devon gave Elena a foot massage. The doorbell rang, and Elena didn’t want to answer, but Devon recalled telling Nate he could come over. When Nate walked in with the food, Elena was buttoning her blouse, and he offered to come back later, but she invited him to stay. He told them that Abby was sending mixed signals – pushing him away, then inviting him on dates, and he was starting to feel like he was wasting his time. Elena advised being patient. She was confident that Abby would realize what a great guy Nate was.

Mariah went to Society and was updating Tessa on the party plans when Abby appeared and sniped about Mariah taking over the party. Mariah didn’t mean to step on any toes – she just thought a joint celebration would be fun and different. Abby snapped that Lola liked traditional things. Playing peacemaker, Tessa said that Lola got that with the shower Abby threw. Mariah asked if Abby had ideas for this party, but Abby said no, and she rushed off. Mariah was worried Abby or Sharon and Rey might blow up the party. Mariah had neglected to tell Sharon that Rey would be there. She was hoping a giant party celebrating love and romance might be just the thing they needed to get them back together, but she admitted it might end badly.

Lola visited Summer at Jabot and told her about the party. Summer assured Lola that she wouldn’t crash this one, the way she’d crashed the bridal shower. To Summer’s shock, Lola asked Summer to attend. Summer said she was busy that night, even though she didn’t know when it was. Lola knew that her request was weird. Summer asked why Lola wanted her to be there. Lola said she was reminded today how lucky she was today that Summer agreed to be her donor. Summer admitted that she wasn’t being completely selfless. Lola said she’d forever be grateful for Summer saving her life. Lola wanted to put the bad blood behind them – maybe they couldn’t be friends, but maybe they could not be enemies. “Alright, well part of my liver’s gonna be there anyway, so why not?,” Summer replied.

Kyle visited Lola at work and noticed she was in a good mood. She told him about inviting Summer to the party, and he was surprised. She wanted to put the negativity behind them – she couldn’t control what her mom did, but she could control the rest. He liked her optimism. They hugged. She asked that they promise each other that they wouldn’t let anything ruin what they had.

Theo went to Jabot and told Summer that Kyle was a mess. She figured it was just wedding jitters. He said Kyle never cared what women thought of him, and she said that was the old Kyle. He said the new Kyle was paranoid that Lola would find something out about him that would make her break up with her. He said Lola must be pretty judgmental. Summer admitted Lola wasn’t that bad. She asked Theo to go with her to the party, as long as he and Kyle weren’t on the outs. He was sure he’d be able to patch things up with Kyle, and he accepted the invitation.

Chelsea talked with Connor on the phone at Nick’s. He was upset because he missed her. She promised that they’d be together as soon as she could get some things worked out. Nick came home, and Chelsea put an ice pack on his swollen hand. She thought she should’ve gone with him to the park, but he was sure he still would’ve punched Adam. He didn’t think Christian believed what Adam said. Nick felt that Adam set him up, and he was angry with himself for falling for it. He said he could kill Adam. She urged him to get control of his emotions, but he said it was too late, and he’d already given Adam more than enough ammunition to prove Nick was a violent parent. She wondered if the judge would take what Adam did in consideration. Nick said it wasn’t just his word because Adam made sure that the one person who’d be on his side showed up right as he hit Adam. Nick said he didn’t care if Sharon was team Adam. “Screw both of them,” he added. Nick knew this could be bad, but part of him didn’t regret hitting Adam, because it showed Adam what he’d get if he kept messing with Christian. Nick wished he’d beaten the crap out of Adam. Chelsea said Adam’s specialty was getting under people’s skin and using it to his advantage. Nick said when he found out Adam was alive, he knew Adam would go after Christian. Chelsea noted that he was going after Connor too. She said Connor wanted to be with her, and she kept making excuses. She was hesitant to tell him Adam was alive, because she was afraid of what he might do. Nick said they had something that Adam didn’t – they were a team. “You, me, Christian and Connor. Together we are stronger than him,” he stated. He promised he wouldn’t let Adam hurt their boys. They held hands. Then she called Anita and told her to bring Connor.

At the penthouse, Adam told Sharon that she didn’t have to drive him home. She wanted to take him to the hospital in case he needed stitches, but he said it was just a scratch. She knew he was in pain, and she told him he didn’t have to pretend for her sake. He said he’d be okay and he told her she should go, but she refused. She took his hand and led him to the couch, then she went to get the first aid kit. Later, Sharon cleaned Adam’s cuts and wondered what made Nick go off on him. He said that Nick accused him of traumatizing Christian. He claimed not to know why Nick would think that. He said he’d never hurt his son, and if she didn’t believe him, she could ask Monique. She believed him, because she’d noticed Nick had been blinded with rage ever since the custody hearing. She noted that Adam didn’t fight back. He said that he couldn’t risk being goaded into a fight because Nick wouldn’t hesitate to use that against him. She asked if he was going to use it against Nick. Right now he wanted to rest and remember his time with Christian. He was bursting with pride because Christian quickly picked up the soccer moves Adam taught him. Sharon said there was no better feeling than seeing your child succeed. One of Adam’s few good memories of Victor was playing soccer with him as a kid, although Adam didn’t know Victor was his father at the time. Adam said that if he won custody, he wouldn’t have to hide who he was – he’d be breaking the cycle, so Christian wouldn’t suffer like Adam did.

Sharon asked how Adam went from the happy visit to getting punched. Adam claimed that Nick freaked out because he saw Christian having a good time with Adam, then Nick started filling Christian’s head with lies, and one thing lead to another. Adam said he might need Sharon’s help regaining Christian’s trust. Sharon said that if Adam really wanted a relationship with Christian, he needed to carefully consider his next move before he retaliated. He argued that Nick should be held accountable for his actions. Sharon agreed, but she said hurting Nick could end up hurting Adam, and she didn’t want to see him get hurt any more than he had. Adam held Sharon’s hand and said he was sorry he dragged her into this. He thought about all the times she had to rescue him. He didn’t think it was fair. She said she wouldn’t come if she didn’t want to. He said she should go, but she said she didn’t need him, Nick, or anyone else telling her what to do. He said he didn’t want her getting caught in the middle again – she was too important to him. “I need you,” Adam stated. “I know,” Sharon replied. He wondered if she really knew how much he needed her, and they kissed. They went up to the bedroom, where he helped her out of her dress, then carried her to the bed.
