I was disappointed the group in Bill's office was skipped over too. Maybe the writers didn't want to foreshadow what will happen to "Kenny" when he shows up for the money? Hopefully it's something big and unexpected. 

The whole story has been poorly written.

I disagree. I think they are *intentionally* weaving in parts of the storyline gradually, different threads that do weave together, we just haven't seen the whole cloth yet.

I think they intentionally didn't show the viewers what the group of men decided in Bill's office after Martin left.  This is to keep the viewers wondering.   I'm sure we'll find out later what they discussed.

He WAS. Thats the point of him staying in DC as he's older and settling down. Its not something he expected or was  seeing but Dani has put him in a position to reevaluate that. It doesnt make sense to have him going around sleeping around now. He's grown up. Nicole was judging him on who he was but she's been out of the loop to where his romantic interests have been and how he's been moving. She assumed that he was sleeping around but that hasnt been the case since he came back to town. He's evolved past that

Evolved? Huge part of the problem with this show. These characters are not established. He's one of them.

I don't know if its by design or not, but this show has a  problem with maintaining momentum, IMO. Again, I don't need the same conversations over and over again, but the big stories need a more consistent throughline that builds to a payoff that makes sense. There's a start/stop functionality on the show that I don't think they've fully mastered at this point. I feel like that may account for the erratic ratings trends.

Viewers posting online: but what about that character, it hasn't been addressed!

Five minutes later, during the show:  it's addressed.

Here we go...insufferable Ashley is in the biggest funk and in comes Andre aka Captain Save-A-Boring-Hoe and he says "It doesn't make you a bad person to want different things." Ashley gets her panties all wet over this like it was some deep philosophical thing and tells Andre how amazing he is and how much better she feels.

Please get these losers off this soap!!!

Yes and the show has done a good job of making it feel believable that he has.

Now this is true f boy behavior. He pressures Dani to have this whole situationship out in the open to everyone....and for what? They don't even know what the hell they got going on. Yet, the moment Ashley asks why Nicole is mad at him and he could say loud and proud he's in a relationship with Dani...he is mute. All to still keep this avenue with boring nursey open. 

I'm sick 😫

Yes to the Kiki avie...no to this comment lol

I don't know what this show's obsession with Andre and Ashley is, they're literally anti chemistry

Lisa Vanderpump shoutout! Hahaha...

Good to see Anita back, that was much faster than I expected.

Ashley literally just ended a long term relationship and she's out here asking Andre on a date. This woman is a mess. She was losing her mind trying to make up any reason to push Derek away just because f boy photographed her helping someone give birth on an elevator. Ma'am is in lust and she's fetishizing. I don't care...I hate her. 

Dani’s hypocrite ass has some nerve talking about Nicole projecting her anger on other people when that’s all she does.
