When we go back to Spencer, he has been guzzling down beers at the picnic. Next, Mason realizes Ava must be stopped and can’t risk having her saying anything about what he thinks she overheard in his fight with Austin. It appears that Ava overheard them and then makes her presence known when she has a chilly conversation with the two of them, before she exits. However, Spencer is done with Nikolas saying nothing will ever close the gap between them in the now or ever, and walks out.Įlsewhere, Ava is drinking and comes upon a lethal argument between Austin (Roger Howarth) and Mason (Nathanyael Grey) near the picnic barbecue, where Mason grabbed a knife and was holding it to Austin’s throat, with very threatening words. Then in a heartbreaking moment, Spencer admits Esme did not matter to him, but his father, Nikolas, did.

However, Spencer brings up the deepest wound … that he let him believe that his father was dead for three years!

Nikolas rationalizes all, by saying he did not want to hurt Spencer when the two of them had finally seemed to heal old wounds. Although Nikolas says there was no plot, Spencer goes in on him saying lying about it and covering it up was wrong. Now, beginning to get angry over his father’s betrayal, Spencer accuses Nikolas of all of this being a revenge-plot against him. Appalled, that his father would sleep with his supposed girlfriend, Spencer goes on to say that he had a plan to keep Esme close all in his efforts to save Trina (Tabyana Ali) from going to prison.

Nikolas tries to justify his actions by pointing out that Esme told him that she had broken up with Spencer. In tears, Spencer demands to know how long Nikolas and Esme were having an affair, but Nikolas swears it was one time, and a horrible mistake.
