Yvette meets with Stephen over the prospect of overriding Anna on the shopping mall project, but he tells her that Andrew had it in his will that the land was to be left alone and that she has little chance of overturning it. She then suggest that the provision could be overturned on the grounds that her father wasn't in his right mind when he added it to the will. Stephen responds by saying that it would be ludicrous and disrespectful to her father's memory to suggest and that he'll have no part of it. He also warns her that dragging it into court would only embarrass her family.

Edmund and Anna are discussing business when Anna notices Edmund still has a photo of his estranged wife. She asks Edmund if he still misses her since she abandoned him, but he just shrugs and says he isn't sure how to feel about her. Anna tells him it's time to move on with his life and find someone new. He says that he isn't ready to make that step yet and needs time to sort his feelings out.

Joseph and Trish run into each other Guido's restaurant and Joseph brings up the subject of their divorce.

Joseph snaps back by saying that she was never patient with him and didn't give him a chance to make things right. She says that their son practically grew up only seeing his father briefly between business trips and that she had to play father and mother to JC. Joseph says that he was only trying to give her and their son the life they deserved and that she was never grateful.
