There was a time when he shared everything with his twin.
Traci says he can share with her if he wants to. It’s the least she can do after all his kindness.
He thinks she’s so kind and understanding. She persists in telling him that none of this is his fault.
Losing someone who was with you your whole life is hard. Seeing his brother die still doesn’t feel real.
She reminds him that grieving is a process.
There drinks arrive and she tells him she’s been through a few things and written characters who were psychologists.
He’s been meaning to ask her about her novels. Why is he talking to a beautiful woman about his disturbed brother when he should be asking about her?
Alan gets her to talk about the glamor of growing up in the Abbott dynasty. She tells him about how she used to sing with Danny.
He’s impressed but she downplays it all. She explains that was a very freeing time in her life.
When her mother walked out on her and her siblings, it was her father who kept everything together.
After he passed, they’ve always had each other’s backs. Now, she’s worried she’s let her sister down.
Maybe she had some childhood trauma she’s never known about?
Alan says they can’t be sure it started in childhood. She could be a rare case where DID happened later in life.
They joke about having their own support group to keep optimistic.
He has faith that they will all get through this. He thinks Ashley is very lucky to have a sister like her.

In the ranch house, Victor tells his son that they are very proud of the man he’s become. Nick thanks this parents.
They get back to talking about Victoria.
Victor repeats that he doesn’t want her going to Newman Media.
His wife interprets this as meaning that what she wants is not important.
Her husband says this is not the case.
Putting Adam in her place is a big red flag to her.
This makes no sense. Nick agrees. Victor doesn’t get it.
Nick repeats that he should trust what Nikki wants.
Shaking his head, Victor declares this is not what he wants and that’s the end of the discussion.
