Shocking Twist: Leslie Can’t Let Go of Teddy-Weddy, While Nicole Is Lost in Seductive Fantasies About Her Former Flame!
Leslie is excited to spend an evening with Ted and Eva, designed to celebrate the younger woman’s birthday. Instead, it turns into a foursome thanks to Izaiah, who is cooking dinner. Of course, Leslie disses his mac-and-cheese (until it turns out to be a gourmet-level dish) and be generally insulting.
Come gift-giving time, Ted wins the day by giving his daughter a selection of gifts — including a teddy bear — he would have presented if he’d been in her life over the years. Once alone, Izaiah tells Eva she’ll never have to spend another birthday alone. He accidentally says he loves her, and she admits that her birthday wish was that he’d say those words, adding she feels the same!
Leslie Wants to Stake a Claim
Nicole admits to Vanessa that she fantasized about Ted while in bed with Carlton! Vanessa wonders if this was because of Ted and Nicole’s anniversary or the shrink’s subconscious suggesting she wants her ex back. Vanessa suggests Nicole sleep with Ted to get him out of her system! Obviously, Nicole shoots that idea down, saying that if she were sleeping with him, too, she’d be classified as the hospital ho! When Nicole heads to the restroom, a newly-arrived Leslie joins Vanessa, saying she just came from a dinner that proved Marcel isn’t her forever boo. That’s right, she’s still hung up on Ted… who at that very moment is sweaty from a workout and crossing paths with Nicole, triggering yet another very sexy fantasy in her head!

Talk turns to Mike and his unexpected resurfacing. “He is the worst thing that ever happened to this firm,” declares Hayley. “That’s debatable,” responds a sassy Naomi.

The three try to figure out the best way to handle the situation, with Chelsea saying she can’t make a public statement without talking to Naomi and Bill about how it might impact Madison’s case. They call, and Bill offers advice on exactly what Chelsea should — and shouldn’t — say during a live stream, which she ultimately knocks out of the park.
