Abbott HOUSE / CHANCELLOR ESTATE / THE RANCH

John tells Billy how impressed he was with Billy's web site idea and to have it at the pool house. He tells Billy that he is proud of him for NOT choosing a place that would have no parental supervision. After John wishes him well at the prom and leaves, Billy thanks Jack for telling their father that it was his idea to have it at the pool house instead of renting a house somewhere else. Billy leaves to take Brittany her corsage. Jill wants him to bring it over to make sure it matches the new dress she bought.

At the Chancellor estate, Raul boasts to Mac that the web site idea will probably be given the OK, which makes Mac uncomfortable. As Jill is getting Brittany ready for the pre-prom shoot, Rianna stops by to let them know that Deirdre won't be able to attend because she is sick. Jill is beside herself because the shoot is set up for three girls. Raul suggests that Mac fill in. Jill says that she's sure Mac wouldn't be interested but Mac counters that she will do it. Jill reluctantly allows Mac to fill in. When Billy arrives, Jill matches the corsage to Brittany's dress and does not like it. She tells Billy to go buy another one. Billy notes that Jill is acting as if it's her prom night. Jill states that everything must go right because this is a very important campaign. Mac disappears up to her room while no one is looking.

In her room she begins to tell herself that she can't do the pre-prom shoot because she's too nervous. As everyone is getting ready to leave downstairs, everyone wonders where Mac is. Brock leaves to go find her. When he gets upstairs, she tells him about the web site idea and tells him that she doesn't want to spend all summer hanging out with the gang, really meaning she doesn't want to be around Billy all summer. Downstairs everyone leaves, but Billy hangs back telling his mother that he'll ride with Mac and Brock. He decides to go upstairs to look for her and overhears part of Mac and Brock's conversation. When he overhears Brock offering to take Mac on a long summer vacation out of town, he goes in her room after Brock leaves and asks her what's wrong. Why doesn't she want to spend the summer with them? Is it because of him? She assures him that it isn't. He goes downstairs as Lauren walks in and Lauren incorrectly assumes that Mac and Billy are an item.

Brad drops by the ranch and Nikki apologizes to Brad for her behavior regarding Ashley and Victor. She tells him about her conversation with Ashley and her not having any input in the "prom" shoot. She tells him that she told Ashley that from now on, she wants to have a say in any special projects sponsored by Jabot. The two agree to stick together to protect their investment and present a united front to Ashley and Jack. They then leave for the pre-prom shoot.

Later at the Abbott home as they get ready for the shoot, Nikki comes in with a huge flower arrangement and tries to replace with the one that is already on the set but the director tells her that the shoot is about the girls and the Jabot products and the flowers will take away from that. Nikki realizes this and apologizes for being in the way. When Jack notices Brad there, he tells him that he should leave. He reminds him of his non-compete clause with Victor and that it is not a good idea for him to be there. The girls arrive for the shoot and as they get ready to start, Jill begins to wonder where Mac is.

They also tell her that both Nikki and Victor know and Victor is not happy about it. Nick drives Victoria into the office.
