Nina a Valentin meet; she makes a list
of things he will need to do to win her back.
She tells him her list goes way beyond physical endurance. He tells her he will do anything he needs
to, to bring her back to him. She mocks
promises he has made before and how they all just evaporated; he swears his
priorities have changed. They look at
the next item on her list, making peace with Spencer; he says he has tried, but
he will keep trying. He reminds Nina
that no body was ever discovered and there is no proof that Nikolas is dead;
she tells him to put that one in brackets.
Next item; Charlotte’s custody.
He tells her he is willing to entertain the idea of shared custody; he
has decided that spending time with Lulu is good for Charlotte. Nina just doesn’t buy his sincerity. She asks if he can promise he will never to
anything to disrupt their lives again, if she were to come back to him; he says
no. He says, what he can promise her is
that he will never do bad things to her or Charlotte, asking if that’s
enough. She says she thinks he can do
better than that; he tells her he won’t beg, and he leaves her sitting
there.
Anna asks Emma why she isn’t eating her pancakes; Emma says she is
stressing over giving this gift back to Spencer, so she can go out with this
other boy, Leif. Anna says she will
help her pack it up and mail it back to Spencer, but she questions the diamond
in the center of this little heart-shaped rock. She thinks it might be real.
Emma asks her grandmother if she thinks Spencer was involved in
“espionage” – Anna smiles. She says she
thinks he just may have gotten ahold of it without realizing it was valuable;
she gives the stone back to Emma and says she will hold on to the gem. She asks her if she thinks it could be one
of Hayden’s diamonds. She tells Anna that
Nikolas did spill them once, and maybe he missed picking one up – Spencer could
have found it.
Franco and Liz come back to his loft; he reminisces about good,
and bad, things that happened there.
Liz says they should work on making some new memories; he tells her she
should go for now. She asks if he is
trying to get rid of her; he says he just works better alone and wants to go
through all of this stuff so he can get home to her. She says okay and leaves; he grabs two cans of spray paint, a
canvas, and starts spraying… he then cuts the canvas corner to corner, and
accidentally cuts himself, dripping blood on the canvas. Liz makes it to the hospital, apologizing to
Griffin for being late; Anna comes in for her appointment. She asks Liz if she can talk to her about
something; she shows Liz the diamond.
Liz looks confused. Ava dreams
of kissing Griffin; she says “I need you” and takes his shirt off. She wakes suddently, on the couch, breathing
heavily; Griffin asks Kiki if she has seen Anna yet. She tells him her mom is late for a session with Dr. Hoffman; he
mentions seeing Ava last night. Kiki
goes to see her mother; she tells her she was worried. Ava says she was just having trouble falling
asleep, claiming she felt a little feverish.
Kiki feels her forehead and says she does feel warm, and insists on
taking her in to be checked at the hospital.
Kiki starts to call Griffin; Ava stops her. She tells her she isn’t his patient; Kiki says Griffin doesn’t
mind and Finn isn’t available, persisting until her mother agrees to go. However, she says, Griffin has enough on his
plate without worrying about her. They
get to the hospital; Ava goes to see another doctor. Kiki gets a text though and asks Griffin if he would look out for
her mom while she’s gone. Turns out she
has a “touch of the flu” and needs to go home and lie down; Griffin says he
will take her, but Ava gets defensive and tells him to leave her alone. Liz asks what that’s all about; he says he
wishes he knew.
Franco unpacks a crate
of former art, I guess, and starts to paint over them all. He mocks himself, a crazed artist who became
famous – in reality, he says, he is nothing but a psycho. As he goes to stab his next painting, Kiki
yells stop. He tells her the only
reason he wanted this stuff back was to obliterate it; he doesn’t want Liz to
see these paintings, ever. She asks if
that’s what the text was about – the apartment is hers; she tells him she’s
happy for him, but says his art is from another time. Picaso had his “blue period,” she says; so he had his “dark blue
period.” They may represent a part of
his life he is not proud of, but it is art and it has it’s place in the world –
she tells him he should give it to her mom.
She says it’s a way to turn something bad into something good; he could
put the money to use for something good, saying it would redeem the
paintings. She says he owes it to the
world to put his work out there and let people react to it however they
will. She reminds him that he once told
her an artist doesn’t own his work; he gives it to the world. She welcomes him back, says she missed him
and leaves. She goes back to get her
mom and takes her home; Ava looks at herself in the mirror again, and wonders
what anyone could ever feel for her, but pity.
Griffin tells Liz, he genuinely likes “the woman” – Liz says, if anyone
can save Ava, it is him. Franco goes to
see Ava; he tells her he has a proposition for her.
