By Pablo G | Season 1 | Episode 9 | Aired on 11.23.2011
At the Stowaway, Nolan is trying his hand at cutting things off between Jack and Amily. It's not going over so well. He's pretty much being stonewalled by Jack and Dec because they have no reason to take Nolan seriously in the relationship advice department. He tries telling Jack that Amily is not the type to stay in one place. Not a valid argument considering she hasn't moved from her sunbathing spot on "The Amanda" all day. Making this argument reminds Jack he should probably go check on that half-naked girl on his boat.
Casa Emily. It's been a while since Emanda has had a chance to sit down and obsessively look over her revenge documents. She has a news article about Frank's murder up on her laptop and looks over his wallet. She brings up the mug shot of teenage Emily. FLASHBACK: It's just after young Amanda and Emily have agreed to switch identities. Still Amanda for the moment, she quizzes Emily about the past of Amanda Clarke, since she's likely to run into people who will ask questions. Emily is curious to know what it's like running into people who are aware of Amanda's father. It's the people who are related to someone who died in the plane crash that are the hardest to cope with, Amanda says solemnly. Last quiz question: Who is Jack Porter? Emily beams and quickly answers that he's the boy Amanda gave Sammy to. /FLASHBACK. Emanda's phone rings with a call from Nolan. He reports that "faux-Manda" is still causing a commotion at the docks. Emanda admits she's having trouble persuading Amily to leave and just needs time to let her cool off, so Nolan needs to run interference with Jack in the meantime. Nolan has another call. He switches over to an automated call from his bank about activity on his credit card. He pulls out his wallet and realizes Tyler has taken his card.
Grayson Manor pool house. Tyler looks over Lydia's reconstructed shredded speech and puts it in his pocket. He puts on his coat as Ashley walks in and hands her a gift -- a really expensive dress. He theorizes her looking good at the investor party will make sure he stands out to potential dealmakers. This is going to be the best boring investor party ever! Tyler's phone rings and he excuses himself to take the call which is from Nolan. Angrily, Nolan jokes about the type of kink Tyler must be into to spend five grand at a dress boutique. He expects Tyler to come see him immediately to return the stolen credit card. Coolly, Tyler agrees to come over because he had business to discuss with him anyway. Oh no... Tyler/Nolan business probably means shirtless Tyler.
