Wow! More pain for Greenlee today! although she does set herself up for heartache. Must she insist on breaking up a mew marriage? Can she not make a new life for herself? Dr. Josh Madden is available and broken hearted over Babe. Maybe the 2 of them can hook up.

Greenlee arrives at Fusion all fired up from yesterday’s happiness at making Annie miserable. She tells Di and Babe to get started on a sunscreen line because yesterday when she was with Ryan and Spike at the pool , she couldn’t help but notice how soft and vulnerable little Spike’s skin was. Babe asks her if its wise to hang out with them as Greenlee earlier told her it felt too right holding spike. Greenlee snaps at her to get to work.  Annie arrives. Greenlee tells them not to forward her calls because her meeting is too important and she doesn’t know when she will be back. Then she rushes off ot meet Ryan for breakfast.

When Babe and Di tell Annie about the new assignment Annie figures it is Greenlee idea, she is annoyed. She tries to focus. Annie suggest maybe she is going to have to quit Fusion to keep her marriage. Babe and Di reassure her she is strong and can beat Greenlee  at her game to break their marriage and keep her job at Fusion.

Oh,  what a breakfast! More like a “break Greenlee”.  Ryan breaks Greenlee when he tells her that ”We cannot  talk, hang out, nothing”.  She replies”You’re still kidding, right? Ryan answers her, “You and Kendall are getting along now and she will include you in Spike’s life , but it is going to have to be without me.”  She completely loses her composure. She freaks and says, ”No, we can’t do this without you! You’re the reason that I wanted a baby. You’re the reason Spike exist.  You’re the reason I want to be in his life, why Kendall is letting me”.   Ryan replies, “I can’t be your friend or anything else. “   Greenlee replies, “You’re in the middle of this, like it or not because without you it all falls apart”.

We see her confessing her true motive here. It seems as if Ryan is a bigger incentive then Spike after all. A relief to Kendall, but not to Annie.

Then Greenlee drops a bombshell on Ryan and asks him “Is it really about me being near you or you being near me? How are you going to stop yourself from looking at me the way you do. I’ve seen that look and Annie has seen it to. You still want me!” Finally Ryan is forced to say ” I don;t want you, I don’t want to marry you and if I have to choose between a friendship with you or my marriage, I choose my wife.” Good for you Ryan . She needs it spelled out for her!

“This is so over the top! Did I strip down or kiss you?”, she exclaims. Actually she did, short memory. “I lost my husband, I didn’t know I was going to have to say good bye to my fried as well”, she finishes.  ”Were done, we were close, were not anymore”,  concludes Ryan.

Greenlee runs off to the beach to be alone and swears to herself “If I lose Ryan I lose everything and I can’t, not now, not ever!”

Annie shows up after Greenlee leaves and is about to sit down with Ryan when she notices Greenlees coffee cup empty with Lipstick. “You were Greenlee’s big important meeting. No wonder Greenlee acted like she knew something I didn’t. She did”. She is so upset she leaves before Ryan can explain.  

Zach arrives at the Chandler house ready to take possession, early. He shows Adam some sample color cloths “from Kendall” to get Adam worked up. Adam throws them on the floor. Zach is funny. 

Meanwhile JR and Amanda meet with Mr. Chamois Wong’s private pilot to try and find where he dropped Mr. Wong. The pilot does slip that he did get back from South east Asia and Bora Bora. Amanda turns on the tears and says its her ex while JR plays the cousin to Amanda. They pilot does not break his privacy. Aiden warns Amanda to stay out of this “Chamois business” because JR is involved and Chamois has just paid off his student loans and other debts indicating some big money is involved.  Amanda is more angry.

Adam wants more time from Zach, but of course he will not give it, his reasons given is ransom money is nearly never recovered.

Colby is upset because Zach has a man going through their home taking inventory for him and video tapping the cars outside. Colby tries to appeal to Zach but he tells her it is business, nothing personal, to get Adam back for telling him It wasn’t personal when Kendall got hurt by JR.   Colby says do you really need my things? Zach shows mercy and says, leave the girls things alone.  Kind.

I feel sorry for Adam and JR and Colby, but it is ironic. Zach could never have gotten control of Chandler enterprises if Adam had not allowed him to earlier. Adam would not have had to offer him everything else if JR had not kidnapped himself. Why did JR demand $100,000,000? Excessive!! Where was his dad supposed to get the  money? Doesn’t JR know their finances? When Adam is forced to ask Zach, JR keeps repeating “Why Zach?” Who else?

The best moment in today’s show is when Zach checks his watch and says, “Welcome to my home.” Loved it!
