At Valley Hospital, Dr. Langston's office—she had just told Victoria, who was in her office with her family, that her cancer wasn't curable. “So we just let our sister die! Why can't you save our sister! You failed our father, and now our sister!” Frida yelled. “I didn't fail your father,” Dr. Langston said. “Frida, I'm going to spend all my remaining time with my husband, daughter, and sisters. I'm going to be fine! I'm going to enjoy life!” Victoria said as she cried. “Victoria, we are not going to give up. I will find you the best doctors I can,” Ivy said. “Mother, you are a great mother. You did the best you could raising us. Now, Matthew, take me home,” Victoria said, and she left with her husband.

"There really is no hope for our sister?" Cynthia asked.

"No, I hate this part of my job," Corinne said.

At Cynthia and Phillip's—Phillip was at home pouring himself a drink as Chanel came in.

“Chanel, why are you here? You know your mother will not let you stay,” Phillip said.

“Daddy, are you mad at me, too? I understand you want to stop being in your mother's shadow, but you’re doing it the wrong way by working for your aunt—who you love! You love Aunt Frida more than mother.”

. We haven't seen each other in years. Daddy, does it have to be like this?” Chanel asked.

At the Essentially fashion building, Jill was setting up the office when Genevieve came in. "Jill, aren't you getting ahead of yourself?" "No, I have to get the new line out as soon as I can. We need this company to be successful and stop Cynthia from beating us," Jill said. "Yes, we do. I’ve put my own money into this company too," Genevieve replied. “Did you see that look on Cynthia's face when she found out that her own daughter is going to be our model?" "Yes, I did." "Cynthia gets everything that is coming to her," Jill said.

At Valley Hospital, Victoria had arrived with Ivy and Cynthia, while Frida stood in the hallway. "Dr. Langston, I haven't been feeling good, so it's good that you called me," Coretta said. "Let's go into my office," she added as Matthew entered. "Victoria, what happened?" "Dr. Langston needs to talk to us." "Yes, I do." "I want my sister and my mother here," Victoria said. "Yes, of course," Coretta replied. They went into the office and sat down.

"Victoria, I looked over the blood tests you had after your chemotherapy. Your numbers are not good, and you only had one treatment—it's your liver." "So what do we do?" "You can't have any more chemotherapy until we figure out the next step." "That's not good," Victoria said. "No, it's not," Coretta replied. "I'm dying," Victoria asked. “Yes, I'm sorry, but I don't think the chemotherapy will save you." "No! You have to find another treatment!" Ivy yelled. "Mother," Victoria pleaded. "I wish I could give you any treatment for the cancer," Coretta said.

At Valley Hospital, Coretta was in her office, sitting at her desk, looking at her computer and reading Victoria's labels from her chemotherapy. There was a knock on the door — it was her sister, who was also a doctor. “Mia, I need you to look at Victoria's labels. I need a second opinion on them,” Coretta said. “Sure,” Mia replied, going behind Coretta to look at the computer. “That's not good,” she said. “No, I'm afraid not. You need to have Victoria come in now,” Mia added. Coretta made the phone call.

At the news station, Frida, Alistair, Catherine, Channell, Jill, Genevieve, Cynthia, Ivy, Robin, and Dina were getting ready to leave. Victoria wasn't feeling well; she put her hands on her face. “Victoria,” Frida said—I hate seeing my sister like this.

“I don't feel good,” Victoria said.

“Let’s take you to the hospital,” Ivy suggested, as Victoria's phone rang.

“I'll get it,” Cynthia said, pulling out Victoria's phone.

“It's the hospital,” Cynthia said, handing it to Victoria.

“Victoria, yes, I will be there. I'm not feeling well,” Victoria said and hung up.

“That was Coretta. She wants me to come in,” Victoria explained.

“Then we will. I will call Matthew on the way,” Ivy said.

“You should have stayed in bed,” Cynthia added.

“I can't let you kill each other,” Victoria replied.

At The News Station - Frida finished her news conference, where she announced her fashion label, Essentially, and that Chanel would be her new model for it. Ivy was comforting her daughter about it. "Mother, why can't you just support me? You have more than one daughter! You never support me. If you didn't want a third daughter, then why did you have me?" Frida yelled. “We will not get into this right now, you know that." "Yes, you don't like making a scene." "No, I don't, but you do," Ivy said, as Nora came by. "Nora, how can you let my daughter make this press conference?" Ivy yelled. “I didn't make the agreement, my manager did," Nora said. “Mother, you can't stop me!" Frida yelled as Cynthia came over. "Frida, go ahead, but you will not be as successful as I am," Cynthia said, as Victoria approached. "I will be, just watch," Frida responded. “Why can't you both get along?" Victoria asked. “You should be in bed," Victoria added. "I'm not going to let you both destroy each other," Victoria said.

At Monica’s Glam - Monica, who was also in the fashion business and a competitor of Cynthia’s, even though they were best friends, was watching the press conference with her sister, . "Well, I'm glad we will not be like Cynthia and Frida," Monica said. “I hope not," Simone replied. "Well, I  need to get busy; I  now have another fashion competition," Monica added. "Yes, you  do," Simone agreed.

At Victoria and Matthew's place—Victorica was sitting in the living room watching news conferences with her daughter Callie. They were both shocked that Chanel was going to be the model for Frida's new fashion line called Essentially. "Well, this isn't going to be good. Cynthia's going to be on a rampage. Both Frida and Channell betrayed her! I wish my sisters would get along. That is my wish," Victoria said. “Wish! Mother, are you giving up?" Callie asked. “No, never. I just want my sisters to get along. I blame my father for that. Daddy hated that he never had sons. He liked to pit us against each other, and Mother never did anything about it. She never stood up to Daddy. Anyway, I need to get down to the news conference," Victoria said.

At the news station-Cynthia and Ivy were listening to the conference. Cynthia could not believe how she was betrayed by her oldest daughter and sister. Chanel approached Cynthia. "Mother," Chanel said. “How dare you betray me again! You will regret it!" Cynthia said, trying not to slap her own daughter. She didn't want to cause a scene, and Chanel knew it.

"Mother, this has nothing to do with you. This is a career decision," Chanel  said.

"I made you the supermodel you are!" Cynthia yelled. Ivy approached her youngest daughter, Frida. "Mother, are you going to congratulate me?" Frida asked, eager for her mother's support. "Frida, I do wish you a successful career, but not like this! You betrayed your sister! Her former employees and her daughter are now working for you! You've always been jealous of your sister, and that will work to her advantage because she will use it to stay on top," Ivy said.

At Ivy’s house, she was looking at a photo of her family—her late husband and the girls she loved most and would do anything for. Yes, she was hard on her daughters, but she loved them and her husband. She wished Richard was here, but he died a couple of years ago. Suddenly, Ivy's phone rang. "Heather, what is it? You have to be joking, right?" Ivy yelled.

At the news station, Dian was preparing for the news conference when Frida, Catherine, Alistair, Jill, and Genevieve arrived. "Frida, everything is set for your news conference," Jill said. "Thanks for doing this." "You're welcome. We can start soon." "Frida, I want you to start first," Jill added. “Alright, I know this might lead to some consequences, but it'll be worth it," Frida replied.

At Cynthia and Phillip's home, Cynthia was looking at designs when Ivy rushed in. "Cynthia!" Ivy called out. “Mother, what is it? Is it Victoria?" Cynthia asked. "No, it's Frida," Ivy said.

At the news station, Frida was speaking into the microphone with her family behind her, including Jill and Genevieve. "My name is Frida Crane Winthrop-Aster. Everyone knows I work at my family's fashion empire, Creation, but I'm starting my own company with Jill and Genevieve Austin as my partners. Our company will be called Essentially," Frida announced as Cynthia and Ivy approached. When she saw them, she continued, "I also have two more announcements: my daughter Catherine will have her own line, and I have the perfect model for our company—my niece, Chanel." Chanel  entered and walked by her aunt, noticing her mother in the audience. "I'm grateful for this opportunity and to come home. I miss this town," Chanel  said. “Yes, we’re glad you're here. This company is all about fashion and family," Frida replied.

At Jillian's house - Jill was looking around her house, devastated that they couldn't make the announcement about the fashion company, but she understood why it had to be put on hold. Family means everything to Jill too, but she needed this after losing her husband; she needed a project to do. As her cell phone rang, she answered it. "Hello, Frida, what is it?" "Yes! That's wonderful news. I'm glad you want to make the announcement as planned. Is everything set?" Jill asked.

At Cynthia / Phillip - Cynthia was on the phone. "I need to find all the information on who my sister is teaming up with. Do you have that information?" Cynthia asked.

At Frida / Alistair - Frida was in her bedroom, all dressed and ready to make the announcement. She looked at herself in the mirror as Alistair came in. "Frida, you look amazing. Are you sure about this?" Alistair asked.

"Yes. I'm," "Alright, I will support you," "Thanks, I can't believe this is happening. I announced a fashion company with a surprise too." "What is that surprise?" “You will find out soon," Frida said.
