Plot Overview

Lydia rearranges furniture in the Capice home and tells Calvin that she'll see to it that Louise becomes dependent on her. Calvin states that she could make Louise very happy by admitting that Phil briefly opened his eyes and may be coming out of the coma. Angry, Lydia warns Calvin that he must never tell anyone what he saw, adding that Louise might fire them and move Phil to a medical facility. When Louise sees the rearranged furniture, she immediately hates it, saying that they enjoy a status quo at Orchard Hill. Lydia responds that she was only thinking of Louise and trying to make Phil's room cheerier. Lydia's subtle guilt-trip manipulates Louise into agreeing she'll get used to it. Playing the concerned confidante, Lydia asks if Louise has seen Mike or Nicole. Louise, eager to gossip, admits that she had lunch with Nicole, and confides to Lydia that Nicole talked incessantly about her admiration for Mike. Lydia casually remarks that Nancy must know by now that Mike didn't buy the fur coat as a anniversary gift. Then, Lydia reminds Louise that Nancy called her a vicious liar. Lydia's cleverly subtle-yet-loaded remarks goad Louise into paying a call on Nancy. Winston catches Calvin going through Winston's dresser drawers and threatens to call the police. Calvin claims innocence, begging Winston not to involve the police. Winston agrees if Calvin promises to leave Orchard Hill immediately. When Calvin refuses, Winston goes to Louise and Lydia with accusations against Calvin. Louise doesn't believe that Calvin's athief. Lydia slaps Calvin hard across the face, telling him that she won't work with a thief. But, Lydia manages to skillfully manipulate Louise by agreeing Calvin should be dismissed, even if he is indispensable to Phil's full recovery. Brimming with emotion for Phil, Louise declares Phil should have the best care, so she'll give Calvin another chance. Winston is stunned and infuriated that Lydia has manipulated Louise again.
