No, this is a mission. She’s got her sights set on Aristotle Dumas, and she swears this mystery man is about to change her life. Because nothing says fresh start like flying across the globe for a party thrown by a stranger whose name sounds like a discontinued cologne. Before she jets off, she makes her rounds. First, cornering Tessa (again) to make sure her son has a personal emotional babysitter. Tessa’s not buying that Daniel is spiraling — but Phyllis is already halfway to te...
