Last Week...

Billy nearly catches Victoria and Kyle, Sally spirals, and Lily fires Nate. Nothing like your ex-husband interrupting your getaway with your secret lover! But that’s exactly what happens to Victoria while she’s away with Kyle. It’s gonna take more than a hammer and nails to do the trick when Lily works to mend fences with Devon and Cane. Sally makes a confession to her bestie Audra.

Meanwhile, blissfully unaware of the deception swirling around her, Daphne looks to the future.

Brooke is devastated by Katie’s latest antics. In fact, you can watch the blonde’s reaction to the “horrible” stunt here. All in with Dylan at last, Will wants to show his girlfriend everything his world has to offer.

Wyatt meets Darcy, and Dylan turns the tables on Katie. Dylan may be Ms. Nice Guy, but when she’s pushed hard enough — she stands up for herself.
