Grayson Manor

Lady Grayson and Conrad engage in some fabulous dialogue in which she calls him a "spiteful beast" (incredible) and then he drops a bomb - Grayson Manor has been sold!

Emily panics, knowing that Grayson Manor was her best way to have a glimpse into the Grayson world. Immediately, she hatches a plan.

Nolan tells Emily about his relationship with Patrick. She expresses concern and tells him to end it.

Charlotte wants to do her part to raise the bottom line for the Stowaway and has committed herself to leading a renovation of the bar to make it enjoyable for the new Voulez crowd. By the end of the episode she has turned it into a really revamped space. One question- if the Graysons are bankrupt, where is the money coming from? Odd.

Victoria talks to Patrick about his attempt to kill Conrad. She assures him she loves him more than anything and thanks him for wanting to protect her.

Daniel pops into a bakery to pick up a cake for Charlotte and runs into the young woman he nearly killed in his drunk driving accident. She is clearly still outraged by his part in the accident and informs him that she can barely pay her medical bills thanks to a scheme executed by Conrad and Victoria. Back at the Stowaway, Daniel tells Charlotte he is going to dig up the settlement papers and find out what really happened.

When Daniel leaves for the city, Charlotte places a call to the bakery and reports to the manager that an employee was inexplicably rude. Who is Charlotte becoming- her mother?! In a later scene she shows up at Sara's house to "apologize" for what happened and tell her that Daniel's not the same spoiled frat guy he used to be. Sara admits that despite what happened, she still has feelings for him. Say what??

Victoria visits Aiden and tells him that regardless of Grayson Manor being sold that he always has a place to stay with her. She also reasserts her interest in getting Emily Thorne as far from Daniel as possible.

Em and Aiden are heating up

Patrick and Nolan have a conversation about their relationship admitting to one another that they both have true feelings for one another and want things to continue. Though Nolan tries to tell Patrick that things are becoming too complicated, he pledges not to let Emily and Victoria come between them. They share a deeply passionate kiss.

Little does Victoria know, things are hot and heavy between Emily and Aiden. Both Emily and Aiden keep mentioning the future and finally being able to escape to the Maldives together. They share a passionate evening alone together at her beach house where they hook up and destroy a wall with a sledge hammer. Only in Revenge-land! We learn later that Emily's working to make sure Grayson Manor doesn't get sold. She concocts a scheme to tip-off the real estate agent working on the deal about the deteriorating shore line that the Manor sits on. The real estate agent is livid and calls off the deal with Conrad!

Nolan goes to visit Jack at the Stowaway and learns that Emily told Jack Patrick was the one who cut Conrad's brakes and killed Father Paul. Nolan, seemingly hurt that Emily would betray Patrick, gets angry and tells Jack the time has come for them to be honest with one another. He admits to Jack that he knows Emily is Amanda Clarke- that they both know- and they've both been lying to one another!! Jack goes to visit Nolan the next day and they agree to put their friendship first. They also agree that Patrick is a concern and must leave the island. Jack promises not to harm him, but that he will be removed.
