The Leftover Woman

On the day of Isabel’s book auction, Rebecca is nervous. She knows that she could lose out to Mason, and if she does, her career might be over. Just as she is making preparations to up her offer, Lucy calls: Fifi is in the hospital.

When Rebecca arrives at the hospital, Brandon is already there. She learns that after Fifi’s ballet audition (she was accepted into the pre-professional class), she fell in the street and was hit by a bicycle. Her arm is broken, but she is otherwise fine. Rebecca wonders why Lucy failed to prevent the injury and feels even more resentment toward her.

Jasmine wonders if Wen could have been behind Fifi’s accident. She also wonders about Wen and Brandon’s possible involvement. The two were old friends, and their parents had been close. Anthony continues to call Jasmine, but she ignores him.

Rebecca wants to fire Lucy, and Brandon hesitantly agrees with her. He tells Rebecca that he has invited Wen for dinner the following night. She does not want to entertain their old friend, but she acquiesces.
