The episode begins with Carlos having a talk with Leona about their businesses and deals. She’s surprised when he makes mention that he would help her reopen her business when the time is right.
Carlos makes it crystal clear that he’s the only man with whom she can work with because he’s her husband. When Abe finds Precious clearing some weeds, he offers to help her persistently and in the process ends up getting a cut on his hand.
Mila sees the incident and is somewhat amused. Anyways, Precious takes Abe inside to treat his wound and he uses the opportunity to flirt with her some more and get more information out of her. Mila resolves to keep Aidan company by the poolside.
He pours out his heart to her which earns him a lecture. As Aidan is about to ki$$ her, Chiara stalks over, calling out her brother’s name. Sophie materializes and ki$$es Aidan right there and then, much to Chiara’s delight.
A moment later, Sophie catches up with the Fieros, glad that she’s welcome to stay as long as she wants. Aidan gives her the cold shoulder and excuses himself. Chiara then goes to confront him about what he’s been doing with Mila.
Speaking of, Mila gets in touch with her allies about the new development which could hinder her plan to milk information from Aidan. Later that night, Aidan dreams about Alexa and when he jerks awake, he doesn’t take it kindly to find Sophie in bed with him.
