This week on Lipstick Jungle…

Victory is doing well with her business and now has the opportunity to have a steady cash flow by doing a tennis line. She needs Joe’s help since she doesn’t know anything about tennis but he’s avoiding her completely. She asks his assistant what’s up but as Helen and Nico talk to Joe, he brushes it off. At the party, he shows up late but Victory is relieved nonetheless until he proves to be no help during the pitch. She confronts him but then he throws the Rodrigo situation in her face. She is then speechless and found home drinking a bottle of wine until Joe’s assistant comes for a visit. She tells Victory that Joe was going to propose to her and asks her to be much nicer to him; however, Victory had no idea.

Meanwhile, Nico gets to meet Kirby’s mom, Tina. Talk about awkward, Nico freaked out about the entire situation until she actually met the woman who was basically a mirrored image of herself. Tina pretends to like Nico but her plans are much deeper than that. She doesn’t believe Nico is right for Kirby and that she’ll end up tossing him away. This puts Kirby in the middle as Nico blurts out for Kirby to move in. Kirby gets mad at both women and tells Nico he can’t move in if their relationship isn’t as solid as they think. As Nico tries to explain herself, she tells him I love you which he also returns.

Wendy is finally moving forward with her project as Shane gets signed with a really hot manager (female). This makes Wendy insecure and she ends up joining Shane on his film project. This causes tension between them and finally pushes Wendy to tell Shane that Dennis kissed her. Shane of course gets angry after a 2 week delay but they are able to mend the situation after Wendy admits she feels hopeless.
