At the Club, Nikki and Jack spot each other. She notes he hasn’t called. He says, “Ringer on my phone works.” She smiles, “Touche.” Nikki says she

feels strong, and Jack hopes her new sponsor is giving her the support she needs. Nikki admits she hasn’t replaced him yet. Her out-patient treatment

is serving her right now. She announces she’s ready to go back to Newman Media. Jack feels that’s empowering. Nikki complains that Victor’s fighting

her on it. It’s infuriating and exhausting. Jack hopes he’ll come around soon. Nikki hopes things have calmed down between him and Diane.

Jack confides that Diane was furious about what happened that night. Nikki figures she’s the reason he decided not to continue as her sponsor. She can’t hold it against her. Jack swears they’ve moved past that conflict, but there’s another one. He tells her about Diane and Kyle’s troubles, which are tearing him apart. Nikki urges him to tell her about it. He can lean on her as she did on him.
