Nate and Devon were reviewing a business presentation when Lily arrived and stated she wanted to bring Damian into Winters. Nate questioned if Damian would even be open to it. Lily said they could use Damian to gain insight on Dumas. Nate pushed back, asking if she wanted to use his brother as a spy. Lily insisted her motive was to protect the company, but Nate wasn’t on board and told her not to play games with his brother.
Devon admitted the plan was risky. Once Lily left, Devon acknowledged that while Dumas was tough, Lily’s idea had merit if used carefully.
At Crimson Lights, Damian shared with Holden that Lily’s job offer was tempting. Holden warned him to tread carefully. Later, Damian called Lily to discuss his decision.
At GCAC, Victor baited Billy by bringing up Phyllis’s firing. Billy shot back that Victor was obsessed with undermining him. Victor then offered a deal: if Billy shared his info on Dumas, Victor would take care of the negative media about Billy’s company. Billy called Victor’s bluff and said he was clearly rattled by Dumas.
Back at Newman Media, Adam hinted at launching his own strategy to deal with Billy and Dumas.
