Jake has just settled into his new office when Gabi enters. She is back in town for Rafe's birthday. Jake thinks that she is back now that she knows he has money and power. Gabi denies that is her motive. She is here to present a business offer. Now that Jake is in charge, they should form an alliance. Jake knew she was after money. She corrects him, funds to rebuild Gabi Chic. Jake tells her to submit a business proposal. Gabi suggests that they mix business and pleasure. They were good once. Jake tells her that he is seeing someone. Gabi thinks that Kate is decades too old to be called a girlfriend. Gabi goes on, Kate is just a port in the storm after she left him. Jake tells her to forget the proposal. Gabi is sure that his affair with Kate will be a secret. Jake tells her that it was Kate's idea to go public. Gabi goes on about Kate's age. Things are different now that she is home. Jake thinks she only wanted him because he looked like her dead husband. Gabi admits that was true at first. He really wants her. Kate is a consolation prize. Gabi moves in closer. Kate comes in to see what looks like Gabi and Jake kissing.

I actually prefer Jake and Kate to Jake and Gabi. I’m not as old as Kate but older than Gabi and I have to say the repetitive age-bashing was annoying to me. I guess youth is all Gabi thinks she has over Kate.

Hopefully, Jake will stay strong when it comes to dealing with Gabi. He did a good job of standing up to Kate when he thought she was ashamed of him, and doing that worked to strengthen their relationship. They seem to have respect for each other now. I'm not sure if Gabi even really sees Jake for who he actually is. There is chemistry there for sure, but I think Jake made a very good point when he said that she sees her dead husband when she looks at him. For her, it is about lust more than love.

I'm guessing she kissed him and it was an unwelcome kiss. Jake is a better man than most others in his family. Gabi is using him in the same way Justin is using Bonnie -- for doppelganger purposes.

Conversation at my house about Gabi's outfit:

Gabi saunters into Jake's office.

My daughter: Gabi used to own a fashion company?

Me: That's right.

My daughter: I can see why it went under.

LOL ProudTVJunkie that's hilarious!

I don't like Gabi throwing herself at Jake. I liked it better when these two bantered. I don't like desperate Gabi. Where's here fierceness?
