At Chancellor Park, buried secrets erupt, turning a peaceful moment into a battlefield of love, lies, and power!

Kyle tells Claire that going out of town with Holden is a bad idea. Holden is a player!

Claire says it’s not as big of a deal as he’s making it. She’s not going with Holden, she’s going to meet up with him there, and it’s none of Kyle’s business!

Claire Newman talks with Kyle Abbott in the park.

Kyle says he can’t turn off his feelings because she walked away. He can’t let her fall into this trap! It’s no coincidence that she’s going to LA. Holden is handsome and invited her! Victor will be very proud of the way she’s acting!

Claire says he sounds self-centered. Her decisions aren’t about him, Holden, or anyone else. They’re her decisions. She was used as a weapon for years, and now she has a privileged and overwhelming life. She doesn’t know how to be normal, but she wants that for herself. Holden will show her around Hollywood and the beach. She might even learn something about herself!

Kyle wants to know why she can’t do it with him.

Kyle looks upset as he talks with Claire.

Claire says she wanted to do it with him. Falling in love with him was a special kind of magic, and she meant it when she said she wanted to make a home with him, but he broke her trust. She grew up with the wicked witch, and then lived a fantasy life with her family and Kyle, but now all that’s left is real life… And she needs to figure out what that is. She needs to learn about who she is on her own.

Audra walks into the park and overhears them.

Kyle says Claire’s not going to learn about who she is on her own… She’s meeting up with Holden!

Audra Charles walks into the park.

Claire says it’s all because he kissed Audra and lied about it. Why won’t he just let her be?

Kyle says she told him she loved him, but they don’t know anything about Holden except that he worked for Damian and now works for Cane… And he had a past with Audra. Isn’t that a big enough red flag for her?

Claire thinks this is more about Kyle’s jealousy than anything else. She can handle herself!

Claire is expressionless as she talks to Kyle.

Kyle asks if Holden has said anything about how he feels about her? Has he told her she’s attractive, but he’s “respecting her boundaries because he’s a good guy”?

Claire says she doesn’t want to talk about this anymore. She tells him that he doesn’t know her. Forget that she told him she still cares about him! Is he only worried that she’ll fall into bed with Holden in LA?

Kyle says he’s worried; how can she be so blind?

Kyle closes his eyes as Audra walks up.

Claire wonders if Kyle will ever realize how much damage he did today. She walks away.

Kyle takes a seat on the park bench and sighs.

Audra walks up, smiling.

Audra smiles at Kyle.

Kyle tells her to keep walking.

Audra doesn’t listen. She sits down and tells him that his psycho girlfriend dumped him, and he’s sulking like a little brat. She tells him to quit dragging her name into his drama. Claire must be under “handsome Holden’s” spell. Victor was right about Kyle all along!

Kyle says Audra is poison. Every breath!

Kyle sits on the bench beside Audra with crossed arms.

Audra says they had chemistry, but it was just hate sex… Ancient history that he should just let go!

Kyle shakes his head. She’s disgusting!

Audra says he must have hated every minute of kissing her.

Audra gestures as she talks to Kyle.

Kyle says he resisted her. Nate walked away, and Holden moved on!

Audra laughs. Holden moved on to Claire. And she’s won… She broke Kyle and Claire up! She can get her funding from Victor after all!

Kyle dares her to profit off the damage she caused. She’s going to rue the day she met him!

Kyle talks angrily with Audra.
