Cut to Senator McAllister's office. Kitty arrives to find a bouquet of flowers on her desk. Attached to it is an envelope. Kitty grabs the envelope.

Kitty: What's this?

McAllister: That's the first poll they ever did when I ran for Congress years ago.

He points out that his polling numbers were as bad as or worse than Kitty's recent poll results.

McAllister: See? I was twice as aloof as you. I totally kicked your ass in aloof. They called me callow, a lefty, a lightweight, a right-wing hawk, a “hair candidate”! America doesn't know what it wants, Kitty. They don't even know me yet. That's why I hired you to cut through the crap and tell everyone what I stand for.

He goes in for a languid kiss and Kitty melts in his arms. Someone should get him some paper towels so he can wipe off his wingtips.

McAllister: And trust me. You will never, ever, be a liability.

Kitty: I hope not because I really really like doing that.

Cut to Sarah's office at Ojai Foods. She's meeting with Tommy. Sarah seems to be having conniptions about something.

Sarah: You're telling me you're going into business with Holly Harper?! What are you thinking?

Tommy: Sarah, if I don't take a risk now I never will.

Tommy lays it out for Sarah. She's going to buy his company stock and he and Holly will use the proceeds to buy the winery. As a consolation, Tommy offers to stay on as an employee. Sarah doesn't have the energy to fight with him.

Sarah: I think you're crazy to go into business with Holly. But I'll watch your back. And drink your wine. Probably all of it. And you can tell Holly that if she screws with you I will kill her. I swear to God I will.

Tommy: It's what I'm counting on.

I wouldn't exactly count on it, Tommy. Rachel Griffiths is pretty formidable, sure, but something tells me in a catfight she and Patricia Wettig would be evenly matched.

Cut to Sarah's house later that evening. Sarah comes home from work to find Joe sitting on the couch practicing chords on his guitar. Which, I guess, is the househusband equivalent of eating bonbons. She asks him if he's ready to go to their couple‘s counseling appointment.

Joe: I've had enough talk. I've had enough therapy. I knew something was up with Noah. I'm not going back there any more.

Cut to Holly's house in Los Feliz. Tommy is there discussing plans for the winery partnership.

Holly: I promise. I won't let you down. We are gonna make beautiful wine together.

Tommy: So we have a deal?

Tommy shakes her manicured hand.

Holly: Oh, your father would be so proud of us. He's here with us. He's watching us. I know it!

Tommy is a little creeped out by that thought. As am I. He makes to leave. Just then, we hear someone outside. Who should walk in but the much talked about but not yet seen Rebecca! (Holly's daughter with William Walker).

Rebecca sees Tommy and thinks her Mother has a “gentleman caller.”

Rebecca: You're a little young for my mom aren't you?

Tommy: We're business associates.

Rebecca: Oh, of course.

Tommy knows the girl is his half-sister and can't stop staring at her. After he leaves, Rebecca tells her Mom she thinks he's cute. This sort of creeps out Holly.

How will she keep Rebecca apart from the Walkers? The answer is: she won't! My sources tell me that next episode will break this dirty little secret (Rebecca's paternity) wide open.
