baby beth is on the floor right at hope 's feet . steffy picks her up and says she is sorry . carter says the question still stands . it is time to say she will accept thomas as her husband til death do they part . hope looks back one more time at beth . carter asks if she is okay . she says yes . thomas takes her hand and says he is nervous too . she looks at douglas who is smiling at her . she repeats what carter just asked and says yes she does take thomas as her lawfully wedded husband . she takes him and douglas as her family . carter continues the ceremony by offering the exchanging of rings . and then he proudly pronounces them husband and wife and says thomas may kiss his bride . ridge leads the audience in applauding . zoe is having a conversation with flo who is throwing back the drinks now . zoe is still not convinced that the hope and thomas marriage is a mistake . flo starts to leave and says if she has to go to jail then so be it . liam is quiet with a stone look on his face . brooke speaks with him but not before steffy walks up and says they are supposed to be enjoying themselves so should they go wish the couple well . he stumbles through the words but says she wanted a family and now she has that . thomas even throws in about beth really not trying to get to hope but to her mother , steffy . flo rushes in to the wedding late and runs into pam carrying a tray of drinks . flo grabs them and goes off alone . thomas tells brooke that once she sees how happy he and hope are going to be he knows she will be his number one supporter . hope is there and she says she feels a headache coming on . it 's been a very exciting day and she thinks she needs to just lie down a while . thomas makes sure that liam sees him and shows him his ring and says he is hope 's husband now and there is nothing liam can do about it . liam goes to brooke and asks where hope is . she says she went upstairs to lie down . he can go up if he would like . liam says he would .
wyatt : hey . it 's me . uh , screening my calls , huh ? look , i 'm not gon na be jealous with whatever 's got you tied up . um , anyway , i just wanted to hear your voice . uh , call me back when you can . if i do n't pick up , then it 's probably 'cause , you know , sally . [ cellphone beeps ] [ sighs ] oh , man . [ knock on door ] flo ? [ doorknob rattling ] hey . bill : hey . wyatt : oh . all right . bill : sorry to disappoint you . what the hell happened here ? wyatt : i -- sally fell . bill : how many times ? wyatt : i -- bill : what ? look at this place . she all right ? wyatt : i do n't know . i was n't here . she got a ride to the doctor or something . [ sighs ] god , i -- i -- i thought she was doing so well , dad , and ... i -- i guess not . i do n't think i have a whole lot of time left with her . sally : you 're never gon na get out of that . dr. escobar : sally , are you serious right now ? you 're really going to try getting pregnant ? sally : timing could n't be more perfect . flo : actually , the best time would probably be when you do n't have the potential father 's girlfriend tied up and kidnapped in your apartment . sally : okay , first of all , you 're not kidnapped . flo : i am tied up and being held against my will after being knocked unconscious . what would you call that ? sally : i would call it `` temporary . `` look , you 're not gon na be like this forever . okay ? and we 're gon na keep you comfortable and fed . do you need anything ? water ? you should probably apologize to her . dr. escobar : what ? sally : well , whacking her over the head was a bit much . dr. escobar : i panicked . i 'm sorry . sally : look , we truly did n't mean for any of this to happen , and i swear i will let you go as soon as it 's safe . flo : safe . safe . so meaning when you 're safely pregnant with wyatt 's baby ? sally : exactly . steffy : here you go . liam : thank you . steffy : mm - hmm . liam : so ... you know that you do n't have to ... hide anything from me , right ? like , if i ask you how you 're doing , i 'm not expecting this robotic `` i 'm fine . `` steffy : i know . liam : do you ? all right . okay . how are you ? steffy : i 'm fine . liam : oh , my god . you just did . there it is . steffy : this is robotic ? liam : yes . it 's -- no . it 's -- it 's -- ah . i just feel like ... there 's more going on . steffy : yeah . yeah . i have a lot going on . like , i do n't often stop and think about how i 'm doing , especially raising our daughter and running the company . i do n't really have that much time to self - reflect , and i 'm good with that . liam : okay . all right . i respect that . steffy : good . liam : i just -- i hope you 're okay with me checking in once in a while . just given how much things have changed for us . steffy : mm , not for me . i 've been on a steady course -- running the company , focused on our daughter . you . your life is the one that changed . bill : i wish i knew what to tell you , wyatt . some words of wisdom . [ sighs ] i do n't know . uh , just appreciate the time you have left with sally , because you probably do n't have a lot . more importantly , appreciate your time with flo moving forward . do n't take her for granted . wyatt : why do i suddenly get the feeling we 're talking about katie ? bill : i screwed up . i mean , i really screwed up . i do n't think she 's gon na forgive me this time . liam : hey , steffy . are you -- are you upset with me ? steffy : what ? no . no . not at all . liam : really ? all right . i just -- you know that i 'm always gon na be there for you and kelly . right ? like , my marriage to hope does not change that . steffy : i know you intend to be , yeah . liam : i 'm not talking intentions . i will be . steffy : [ sighs ] liam , that 's really sweet , and i respect your commitment to our daughter and me . liam : [ sighs ] but ? steffy : i know you genuinely wan na be there for us , but you can't . you have a wife and another little girl . you have another life . pretending otherwise is n't good for either of us . dr. escobar : so why am i just now hearing about this ? sally : hearing about what ? dr. escobar : your plan to get pregnant . sally : i do n't know really . it was kind of a spur - of - the - moment thing , so ... flo : clearly , it was not a spur - of - the - moment thing if you 've been tracking it and you know it 's the ideal time . sally : okay . fine . there was some forethought that went into it . but i needed a backup plan , okay ? 'cause plan a was taking far too long . wyatt was supposed to be falling back in love with me by now . flo : okay , so your plan b is to get pregnant by a man who does n't wan na be with you . oh . what could go wrong with that ? huh . sally : you know , wyatt will remember how much he loves me again . i know it . and trust me , i would not be going this pregnancy route if i had more time . but you , with your panic attacks and wanting to tell the truth all the time , and you , convincing wyatt that he should kick me out , i was running out of options . flo : one thing , though . you ca n't get pregnant if the other person does n't wan na participate . sally : [ scoffs ] okay . look , wyatt has always been more than willing to participate . he might need a little persuasion , but i really do n't think it 'll be hard to convince him to grant a dying woman her final wish . ahoy ! gotcha ! bill : i really ca n't believe that katie is thinking of telling will . wyatt : well , because she does n't wan na risk getting hurt by you again . bill : but that 's what i 'm trying to make her understand . i won't . we won't . brooke and i would never -- wyatt : do something like that unless another spur - of - the - moment time happens ? another onetime incident ? dad , come on . i 'm just trying to get you to understand and see where katie 's coming from here . bill : i do understand . i just do n't accept it . i 'm not gon na let katie go . i 'm not gon na let her walk out , end our family . that 's not happening , wyatt . will deserves better . he deserves his mother and father together , and that 's exactly what he 's gon na have . he worked way too hard to reunite us , and i 'll be damned if i 'm gon na let that fall apart . liam : so , uh , when i try to reassure you , it 's just totally backfiring . that 's where you 're getting at here . that 's what you 're saying ? steffy : no . not at all . liam : really ? okay . steffy : liam , i appreciate you , and i value your time here . i want you to be in kelly 's life . i want you to be in my life . but i do n't need reassurance . i do n't need proclamations of always , because we both know that 's -- that 's not true . you ca n't split yourself in half . you need to be telling this to hope , that you 're always be there for her , not me . liam : uh , you get that just because i 'm married to hope and i 'm living with her and beth and douglas , that does n't mean i forget about you and kelly . like -- i 'm sorry . i 'm about to bring up the `` a `` word again , but i am always thinking about you . that 's not an exaggeration . that 's not me being poetic . you and kelly are always on my mind and in my heart . that 's not changing , ever . flo : you realize this is all gon na blow up in your face . dr. escobar : she 's right . i do n't see any way this ends up well for either of us . sally : nine months from now when i have my miracle cure and i 'm holding my newborn baby -- i do n't know . it seems like a pretty good ending to me . flo : so this -- this miracle cure , this new crazy plan of yours , you -- you think that i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na along with it ? sally : okay . fine . so you 're not gon na go along with it . whatever . all right . yeah , wyatt will be upset . probably really upset . but i 'm gon na be carrying his child , so he ca n't stay mad at me for long . flo : you 'll be carrying his child in prison , where you both will be serving time for kidnapping and assault . and you 're gon na lose your medical license and never be hired again unless you convince her to let me go and come clean . we can all go to wyatt together and tell him . sally : okay . we are gon na let you go . and enough of this kidnapping talk . okay ? really ? i mean , it 's not like we have you tied and gagged . flo : you literally do . sally : barely , okay ? and we 're not evil . we 're not gon na harm you in any way . look , think of it like a sleepover . you and penny get to know each other when i 'm off with wyatt . look , i have plenty of things to do here . i have board games in the closet . i have dvd 's . i have all of the drawing supplies that you need . you can have a hangman tournament or tic - tac - toe . flo : it 's your last chance . just let me go . sally : i can't . i need one more night with wyatt . one more night to cement our future together . wyatt : you do n't have to worry about will . he 's gon na be okay no matter what happens . bill : he deserves better than `` okay . `` wyatt : i know that , and i agree . but , dad , you ca n't control everything . bill : sure i can . hello . have we just met ? i do n't quit . wyatt : [ sighs ] bill : and i do n't wan na be the one responsible for hurting him again . wyatt : do n't do that . it does n't do any good to beat yourself up . you 're a good father . will knows that . and you 're gon na make sure his future is bright even if you and katie are n't together . bill : i 'm not giving up , wyatt . wyatt : i know . i 'd be shocked if you did . you 're not a quitter . i know that . you never have been , and you 're not gon na start now . even if it seems impossible -- even if it seems like katie 's not gon na come around , you just -- you got ta believe in your family . you got ta believe in your relationship with her . i know i do . [ knock on door ] liam : you expecting someone ? steffy : uh , yeah . that 's amelia . liam : i did n't know you were going out . i - i did n't wan na keep you from your 6 ' 5 `` italian , hot model date . steffy : i do n't have a date . i do n't have that . i 'm taking care of -- amelia . amelia : hi . steffy : thank you for coming . amelia : of course . steffy : come on in . amelia : liam , good to see you . liam : yeah , good to see you , too . [ kelly babbling ] amelia : oh . that sounds like i am already on the clock . i 'll go check on little miss kelly . liam : just so you know , if you need help watching kelly , i 'm , like , the first person you should be calling . steffy : thanks . i 'll take you up on that . liam : no , i mean , like , right now even . i 'll go in there . i 'll tell amelia she 's off the hook . steffy : i already booked amelia . liam : well , you know ... steffy : besides , you have to go home to your other family . i 'm sure beth and hope are waiting , and douglas , too . liam : all right . fine . well ... thank you . steffy : for what ? liam : being the mother of my child . you know how much that means to me to know that kelly has such a competent , caring mother ? steffy : are you just saying that to make me feel guilty that i 'm dumping her off on the babysitter for a few hours ? liam : no . i 'm not . i 'm not . steffy : let me live . liam : i know . enjoy your me time . you 've earned it . flo : this does n't have to end in a total disaster . you can still walk away with a little bit of dignity if you want to . sally : i 'm walking away with wyatt . and , look , flo , ultimately , this does n't have anything to do with you . i do wish you the best . just as long as your best does n't interfere with mine . flo : sounds genuine . sally : it is . flo : genuinely crazy . let me go . sally : i wish i could , but i can't . flo : what about you ? you 're not gon na do the right thing ? you 're willing to go to jail for her ? dr. escobar : you listening to what she 's saying ? sally : look , nobody 's going to jail , okay ? nobody 's gon na get hurt . and if she wants to press charges , we 'll just explain that it was a simple misunderstanding . flo : a misunderstanding ? sally : yes . correct . look , you clearly do n't understand that high school sweethearts are n't supposed to last forever . but maybe after tonight , after i am carrying wyatt 's child , you will finally get it . you will understand that you are a part of wyatt 's past . it 's our do - it - all concealer . [ engine starts ] [ engine revving ] [ cellphone chimes ] sally : order whatever you want , penny . i 'm sure it will be fine . [ exhales ] okay . do you have any dietary restrictions ? flo : no . sally : do you want chinese takeout or thai ? flo : i do n't care . sally : okay . well , if you were forced to choose and hypothetically kidnapped -- flo : i do n't care . thai . sally : she wants chinese . yes . bye . [ cellphone beeps ] man , i do n't know why wyatt has n't responded to my text . i can see that he read it . flo : maybe he does n't wan na be forced into having sex with you . sally : okay . that 's enough from you . and please give me a little more credit . i did n't tell him exactly what i wanted to do . i just said that i had something special planned . flo : [ sighs ] sally : what do you think ? flo : i think you look like a disgusting liar who 's definitely not dying . sally : actually , thank you for reminding me . i have to touch up my makeup . flo : you can dress as slutty as you want . he 's not gon na sleep with you . sally : uh , he will . i really think you 're underestimating his commitment to me . sally : [ laughs ] no , i have all that worked out . flo : oh , really ? how ? sally : he will sleep with me with your approval . flo : like hell that 's gon na happen . sally : look , you do n't have to believe me , but it will happen . i think this should work . [ gasps ] flo : sally ? come on . sally : [ groans ] what the hell do you think you 're doing ? [ crashing ]

ridge : we ca n't lose our position in this market . it 's got too much potential . admiral : the fareast loop is still expanding . ridge : marone 's got to stay on top of this one . admiral : we could add another call in shanghai . ridge : look into that , will you ? i 'll have accounting crunch the numbers . admiral : very good . ridge : thank you , admiral . admiral : i 'll be in touch . ridge : okay , good . secretary : ridge . ridge : mm - hmm ? secretary : brooke logan called while you were in your meeting . she wants to see you . ridge : when ? secretary : as soon as you 're free . she 'll meet you at home . ridge : my place ? oh , no . she 'll run into mother . stephanie : now you want to marry ridge ? brooke : what i want is none of your business . stephanie : how would captain payne feel about this ? hearing you talk this way ? or is he just part of the game ? brooke : there is no game , stephanie ! stephanie : well , what do you call this endless tug of war between you and ridge ? i mean it 's -- you 're so predictable . brooke : oh , yeah . and yet you 're so shocked by everything i do . stephanie : shocked ? no . appalled , yes . you just seem to think that you can pick up a life with ridge whenever you want . brooke : ridge happens to love me . stephanie : you just love being chased . brooke : not quite . stephanie : well , is n't that what this is all about ? playing hard to get ? you know , i 'm on to you , and ridge will be , too . brooke : you think i 've made all this up ? stephanie : well , what does it matter ? you just cry wolf and ridge runs to the rescue . and then all of a sudden , all of the disappointments and all the mistakes are simply forgotten . brooke : you 're just jealous . stephanie : of you ? brooke : you 've never had a wonderful relationship , stephanie . not with eric . not with your children . stephanie : oh , brooke . when are you gon na get it through that head of yours ? a relationship with ridge is not meant to be . it is not preordained . it is not predestined . it is n't fated . it 's just a bad habit . and somebody 's got to break it . nick : chucky . joey : come on , chucky . come on . chuck : i 'm out . joey : out , again ? nick : not again . chuck do n't go away mad , just -- all : go away .

[ door slams ] brooke : well , neither am i . stephanie : good . why do n't you practice your sob story on me before ridge gets home ? or did you already try it out on nick ? brooke : oh , god , i do n't need to hear this . stephanie : i thought you two were an item . i mean , is n't the damsel in distress usually how you snag these fellows ? brooke : i have n't snagged anybody . stephanie : well , maybe you should , because obviously he 's crazy about you . he 'd have to be to put up with all this . brooke : you just want me to get involved with anybody , stephanie , anybody else but ridge . stephanie : anybody but a member of my family . or yours . brooke , look -- i think that -- i think that you and ridge are not together because you made a choice . brooke , i think honestly , right here , you know it 's time to move on . [ door opens ] brooke : ridge . ridge : yeah , i got a message you needed me . brooke : yes , i do . ridge : what 's going on ? mother , would you excuse us ? stephanie : oh , no , ridge . ridge : please ? ridge : do n't worry , logan . no matter what it is , we 'll get through it together , okay ? nick : there you go . just put that on my tab . bridget : thanks . nick , my mother likes you -- a lot . nick : yes ? bridget : and you like her . nick : okay . bridget : okay . the question is , how much ? nick : how much i like her ? bridget : yeah . nick : oh , probably -- about that much or so . bridget : nick , come on , i 'm serious . look , i have seen the effect my mother has on men , believe me . there 's only one man who 's had the same effect on her . nick : forrester . bridget : forrester , yes . they 've waited a long time to be together . nick : well , it does n't look like your mother 's in a big hurry . bridget : nick , okay , this is n't just about my mom . there are kids involved here . nick : i thought you were worried about me . bridget : i am . nick , you are -- you 're great . you 're fantastic . i can see why my mother 's attracted to you . but listen , what she has with ridge -- nick : bridget , i want to thank you for the warning , but i 'm gon na get back to my poker game now . just remember , i 've navigated just about every ocean on the planet . i do n't think i 'll have any trouble steering around forrester . okay ? hey , boys . deal 'em up . ridge : mother giving you a hard time ? brooke : no , it 's not her . it 's deacon . ridge : deacon ? brooke : and macy . ridge : what do you mean , deacon and macy ? brooke : they 're working together . ridge : i do n't understand . brooke : i went over to deacon 's house and i wanted to check on little eric , and guess who was there ? macy . ridge : how do they even know each other ? brooke : well , apparently they met at an aa meeting . i think this has been going on for some time . ridge : thorne and macy have n't even been separated that long . brooke : i know . but think about it . deacon first came over to my house to see hope right after macy had her hysterectomy . ridge : you do n't think there 's a connection , do you ? brooke : i know it 's a stretch . but put yourself in macy 's shoes . she ca n't have children , she lost her husband , she met deacon . i wo n't let deacon see hope . so now what 's going to happen ? ridge : okay , so they 're angry . so what ? brooke : ridge , they 've already taken little eric . what 's gon na stop them from taking hope ? ridge : what do you mean they took little eric ? brooke : deacon came over to the house with a lawyer and they took little eric for the night . ridge : oh , god . logan , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i had no idea it had gotten to this point . brooke : no , i know . nobody knows . and nobody even knew that macy was involved . but it makes sense , right ? i mean , there 's deacon with his sudden interest in his children , a new house , a new high - powered lawyer . and you know what ? it 's not gon na stop there , because macy thinks that i ruined her life . so what 's gon na stop her from convincing deacon that i ruined his ? ridge : but you did n't do that , logan . brooke : i know i did n't . but my mistakes could cost rick his son , and me my daughter . ridge : no . no , if macy and deacon want to pursue getting the kids , that 's their choice . but i promise you , they 're gon na regret it . stephanie : excuse me . i 'm looking for a gentleman by the name of dominick payne . do you know him ? would he be here ? chuck : he 's right there . hey , mr . popularity . stephanie : nick payne ? nick : that 's me . stephanie : well , hello , mr. payne . i 'm stephanie forrester . joey : are you any relation to nick 's boss ? nick : he 's not my boss . stephanie : if you 're referring to ridge forrester , i happen to be his mother . nick : hello , mrs. forrester . what exactly can i do for you ? corky : whoa . excuse him , ma'am . we do n't get a lot of female visitors in here . joey : until today , and nick 's had a parade of them . corky : this must be the blonde he 's been looking for . nick : shut up , corky . stephanie : hello , corky . corky : ma'am . corky malone at your service . stephanie : thank you . joey : i 'm joey . stephanie : hello , joey . nick : mrs. forrester , why do n't you join me up in my office , where we can talk ? stephanie : i 'd be delighted . nice meeting both of you . corky : you , too . nick : well , mrs. forrester , i can only guess that you 're here to warn me to stay away from brooke . and if that 's the case , you might as well just save your breath . stephanie : actually , i 'm here to offer advice and encouragement . nick : so you 're here to offer me encouragement and advice about brooke ? stephanie : well , she and i have a long history . nick : i 've heard . stephanie : unfortunately , brooke sees me as the enemy . i hope you wo n't see me the same way . nick : oh , i just love a woman who does n't make waves . stephanie : i was at my son 's house and brooke had just arrived , looking for him . nick : oh . is this where you try to make me jealous ? stephanie : can i do that ? do you care that much ? [ nick laughs ] nick : that seems to be the forrester question of the day . stephanie : well , i only ask because i hope you do . nick : why is that ? stephanie : because i think you are exactly the kind of fellow that she needs . nick : you do n't know anything about me . stephanie : you and brooke are friends . i 'm hoping that you 're much more . nick : and you 'd like that ? stephanie : yes , of course i would . because if you 're really serious about brooke , you need to know exactly what you 're up against . nick : oh , right . her destiny with ridge . stephanie : obsession is a better word . i do n't think brooke is ever really going to be happy until she 's far away from my son and my family . nick : oh , come on , mrs. forrester . let 's tell it like it is , huh ? you do n't really care about brooke 's happiness or mine . you 're pretty much here for yourself , are n't you ? stephanie : well , does that matter ? as long as our interests coincide . nick : but they do n't . stephanie : i do n't agree . i think they do . and i think you 're going to need my help . nick : thanks . do n't want it . stephanie : she 's with my son right now . and if you do n't think that 's a problem , you 'd better think again . ridge : you 're scared . brooke : macy and deacon could go after the kids . ridge : they wo n't get anywhere . brooke : but he 's their father . ridge : he 's an alcoholic loser is what he is . brooke : and macy 's been trying to help him get back on track . ridge : why ? brooke : part of her vendetta , getting back at me . ridge : look , no judge in the world is gon na let children get sucked into something like that . brooke : so you think that 's what 's happening ? they 're gon na try to sue for custody ? ridge : they 'd be making a huge mistake if they did . they ca n't win . not with deacon 's history and macy 's bitterness . it 's impossible . come here . [ brooke sighs ] brooke : i could n't believe it either . ridge : everything 's going to be all right , logan . brooke : you know , seeing macy really caught me off guard . ridge : look , nobody in their right mind would try to take hope away from you . brooke : but what about little eric ? if anything happens to him -- ridge : we wo n't let it . brooke : you know , your mother told me i should n't bother you with this . ridge : listen to me -- what concerns you , concerns me . okay ? ridge : listen -- my commitment to you is as strong as it 's always been -- to our life , to our family , and nobody 's going to threaten that , do you hear me ? you can count on me . stephanie : do n't underestimate the connection between brooke and my son . it 's an addiction for both of them . ridge : i 'm here for you , logan . ridge : i 'm right here . stephanie : you need to do something now before it 's too late . nick : mrs. forrester , one thing i do n't do is panic . stephanie : do n't be so cavalier , mr. payne . you have no idea what you 're up against .
bridget talks to nick at the bar and warns him that it 's best to leave brooke alone . he needs to also beware 'cause she still loves ridge and they 're destined to be together brooke thinks . nick thanks her but he does n't listen to her advice . he 's got to get back to his poker game . she leaves . stephanie & brooke are still arguing about her life with or without ridge . stephanie thinks they are a bad habit . brooke says she 's not playing games and will still see him . ridge arrives after a note is given to him by his secretary saying brooke needs him . he wants to talk to her alone . stephanie is asked to leave . she finally does . brooke tells ridge about deacon 's plan to get his kids , which is headed by macy . he 's sorry and hugs her , and then says he 'll always be there for her no matter what . they kiss while he comforts her . stephanie later goes to see nick at the bar . all the guys meet her too , and nick takes her to his office . she supports his relationship with brooke and wants to help him get her . nick thinks she 's after her own personal gain . she says it does n't matter , and that he needs her help 'cause ridge & brooke are very close and together right now ! he never panics he tells her and does n't have a thing to worry about . stephanie says he does ! she leaves .
ridge : megan , i said i did n't want to be disturbed . thorne : i got the new proofs . ridge : you check them ? thorne : yeah , i checked them . ridge : like the line any better now ? thorne : does it matter ? ridge : matters to me . thorne : what do i know ? i 'm just the `` paper pusher . `` ridge : you were right about this one . the objections you had . i made the changes . thorne : still works . ridge : thorne , i do n't want this collection to come between us . thorne : ridge , if you made the changes to pacify me -- ridge : i 'm not pacifying you . i do n't want to pacify you . i just want to work with you . i think if we can do that , this line could be really great . clarke : think of what you like about these . stand up a little more straight , okay ? thank you . cindy , yeah , that looks good . there 's something elegant about these . well ? sally : well . they 're not bad . i 've seen worse . so , how many have we nailed so far ? 50 ? 100 ? babs : ten . sally : ten ? you 're talking about a lousy ten orders ? it 's finally come to this , huh , bucky ? spectra fashions has finally produced and knocked off a dud collection . clarke : i told you i had my concerns when i saw the original sketches . [ sally sighs ] sally : and of course , you did n't want to offer any part of your talent to make them look a little cuter . clarke : sally , i could 've designed you a beautiful original garrison collection . however , you 're the knock off queen , and you wanted to go back to our roots . sally : okay , bucky , i get the picture . well , it 's pretty obvious that our roots are withering . and if this collection is the best we can do , then this company is doomed . clarke : all right everybody , why do n't we all just go on down to the cutting room or wherever . and let 's give sally some space and time , all right ? darla : clarke ? clarke : oh , darla . thank god . darla : i need to see sally . clarke : not a moment too soon . go on in . i knew you would n't let her down . darla : hey , sal . i thought you might need a little cheering up . sally : what 's this ? darla : something that i think would mean a lot to you . caitlin : you want to come in ? rick : i should probably get going . caitlin : no , it 's okay . my dad 's at the firehouse . rick : so , there 's nobody home ? caitlin : come on . you 're letting all the air conditioning out . i wanted to thank you for today . rick : could n't you just thank me on the porch ? caitlin : not like this . samantha : caitlin ? caitlin : mom ? i did n't know you were home . samantha : obviously . rick : i should -- i should go . samantha : not until somebody tells me what 's going on . caitlin : nothing . it 's fine . i 'm okay . rick was just bringing me home . samantha : home ? from where ? from his place ? caitlin : yes . we were just hanging out , mom . samantha : i saw what you were doing . do you know how old caitlin is ? caitlin : mom ! samantha : fine . if you do n't want to talk to me , you can explain it to your father . caitlin : no . you ca n't tell dad . rick : you know , maybe i should talk to your father and -- samantha : maybe you should . caitlin : we went for a swim . that was it ! i do n't know why you 're making this such a big deal . samantha : caitlin , because it is a big deal . you left work early without telling anyone . i called and i could n't find you . and you 're out with an older man ? caitlin : you 're making it sound like something dirty , and it 's not . samantha : honey , i remember what it was like to be your age . it 's easy to make mistakes . caitlin : we were just kissing . samantha : but if you get carried away -- rick : we have n't . we did n't . and we 're not going to . look , i know where to draw the line . i want to protect caitlin just as much as you do . samantha : i doubt that . caitlin : stop it . god . i never should have told you anything . i thought i could trust you . [ samantha sighs ] samantha : you can . caitlin : not if you 're gon na tell dad . are you ? ridge : thorne , we both want the same things . what 's best for this company . we just disagree on what that is . thorne : minor detail . ridge : it 's a hurdle . but we can get over it . if you 're willing to face the real problem here . thorne : and that is ? ridge : i think you know . thorne : my wife . ridge : i said some things i probably should n't have . i was angry . thorne : i 'm not the one you should be apologizing to , ridge . ridge : darla does n't want my apology . thorne : how do you know that ? ridge : because i talked to her . at least , i tried to . thorne : well , after the way you treated her , ridge , i do n't blame her . ridge : no , i understand her being angry . but it was more than that . she said to me , `` do n't underestimate me . that would be a big mistake . `` what do you think she meant by that ? sally : thank you , darla . that 's very sweet . but i 'm just not in the mood to open presents right now . later , okay ? darla : sure . sally : actually , you know , it 's very unlike me to be willing to punch a gift horse in the mouth , but -- darla : i understand , i understand . there 's a lot going on . you have a lot on your mind . sally : yeah , actually , that 's true . i 've been thinking a lot about saul lately . i 've been thinking a lot about saul . remembering how he was . what a genius he was at this game . i do n't think i ever really appreciated him enough . darla : oh , you loved him . sally : of course i loved him . of course i did . we all loved him . but i 've been remembering how useful he was , how important and how much i needed him . particularly at times like these . you remember how he was . him and his contacts . saul had an army of fashion experts . spies , the kind of spies that would make the k.g.b . green with envy . you ca n't buy loyalty like that . you do n't find it on a resume , either . it takes years to develop that kind of thing . and i 'm just afraid that spectra fashions is finally starting to run out of time . darla : sally , you still have the same kind of people around you now . i know you 're a little down now , but i 'm hoping that what i brought you will put a smile on your face . thorne : darla was n't threatening you . she was sticking up for herself . ridge : you did n't see the way she looked at me . thorne : you know what ? you want to work together , let 's stay off the topic of my wife , okay ? because i 'm not gon na let you insult her . ridge : i got it . thorne : you do ? ridge : yeah . i do n't need another reminder . thorne : ridge , give darla a chance , okay ? she 's good for me , man . and she 's good for this family . you 'll see that . ridge : tell you what , i 'll keep an open mind about your wife if you keep an open mind about my designs .

[ phone rings ] darla : hello ? sally : hello , darla . it 's sally . darla : hi , sal . did you open my gift ? sally : yes , yes . i just opened it . darla : did you like them ? sally : honey , of course . darla , are you absolutely sure you wanted to give me these ? darla : of course . i knew how much they 'd mean to you . that 's why i took 'em . sally : you know , at my birthday party , i really was behaving like a drama queen there . i 'm sure i made things sound a lot more serious than they were . i mean , honey , what i 'm trying to say is , i was overreacting like always . you really did n't have to do this for me . darla : oh , please . it 's no big deal , really . i just went to thorne 's computer , turned it on and printed them out . sally : darla , honey , all i can say is you are -- you 're an absolute angel . i mean , you 've made a miracle for us here . i just- i do n't know how to thank you . it 's just a miracle . darla : good . i was hoping you 'd feel that way . sally : thank you , honey . thank you , darla . i mean , this has got to be the best birthday present i 've ever gotten . darla : oh , you 're welcome . bye , sal . sally : amazing . i 'd never have believed she had it in her . sally : hello ? attention all spectra fashions employees , this is your fearless leader speaking . i want all of the heads of the departments in my office , on the double . this is an order . faith : what is it , sally ? sally : i wish to announce that a miracle has happened . employees : what ? sally : this company is going to be successful again . a miracle has happened .

[ employees cheer ] sally : okay , now , beat it . get back to work . what do you think i 'm runnin ' here ? come on , get out . it is a miracle , you know ? it is manna from heaven , clarke . or , maybe i should say , manna from the desk of ridge forrester , hmm ? he is never going to know what hit him . or who . ridge : i heard you were in the building . darla : keeping tabs on me now ? ridge : should i be ? darla : you sound a little paranoid . do i really frighten you that much ? ridge : thorne and i are mending fences , darla . i do n't want any more trouble with you . darla : oh , but you 're the great and powerful ridge forrester . what could i possibly do to cause any trouble for you ? sally : einstein . our own little hometown genius , bucky . she actually did it . she is still one of us . clarke : you sound surprised . sally : i am . i 'm astonished . but not as surprised as the forresters are going to be . they are in for the shock of their lives . oh , yes .
thorne and ridge tentatively patch things up . ridge is suspicious of darla but agrees to give her a chance . thorne wanted to show ridge the proofs of the ingénue line but got darla 's pictures of sally 's birthday party instead . sally is down about the latest designs that clarke shows her . darla brings her the envelope and leaves it for her . clarke opens it and shows sally that darla gave her the ingénue designs . sally , shocked , phones darla , but does n't mention that the pictures are of the designs , so darla does n't know what she 's really talking about . sally is convinced that darla really meant to help her out by slipping her the designs . she is elated and anticipates being back on top again . ridge warns darla not to interfere with his and thorne 's progress . rick brings caitlin home and they are found kissing by sam . she yells at them but agrees not to tell hector about their dating yet .

[ scene_break ] thorne : aly 's always been troubled . my life regret is i have n't been able to ease her suffering . it was a lot easier when she was a little kid because i could keep close watch on signs that she was slipping , but , you know , she grew up . she got older . kids do . and a young woman needs to be in charge of her life . you ca n't keep your children under glass . maya : or control them . thorne : yeah , well , you know , aly has created this world inside of her head , and when someone deviates from her code of behavior , well ... it 's why she has a problem with you . maya : i get it . thorne : aly 's a good person . she 's warm , generous , has a huge heart . she just gets overwhelmed by the real world , change , progressiveness . she takes refuge in her head , and that 's when the darkness comes out . it 's a defense mechanism . what comes off as extremism or intolerance , that 's just deeply rooted pain screaming to get out . wyatt : i feel bad about that , but i 'm also really worried . i 've been on the receiving end of her displeasure , and that 's just not a fun place to be . liam : those , uh -- yeah , those -- those photos of steffy and maya , they are really disturbing . rick : we all think that aly needs help . thorne : i agree . uh , i 'm going to take aly back to paris with me , and , um , i can get her therapy , and i can be there with her . rick : that 's a good idea . thorne : yeah . i just hope i can get to her before it 's too late .

[ siren wails ] thorne : even from herself .

steffy tells aly to put the tire iron down . ivy is driving and thinking about seeing the hate board . she calls and leaves a voice mail for aly to try to meet her later and says they need to chat . thorne returns home amid all this nonsense . he says it is the last time he will fly commercial . he missed california freedom and that is the whole reason he is here . rick says that is okay ; more important now is that aly needs help . thorne welcomes maya and says she did good under fire and he congratulates them on their engagement . rick tells thorne there is no way to sugarcoat this . aly is worse . she 's had quite a few outbursts in the office . and she has pulled away from oliver who is on assignment in milan at the moment . in a flashback aly tells steffy that she wanted to help the company but steffy treated her like a joke and she will not let her treat her like this .
wyatt : hey ! yeah , over here . liam : hey . hey , thanks for -- thanks for meeting me . wyatt : you made it sound so urgent . what 's up ? liam : yeah , so , um ... listen , something happened at the wedding . wyatt : hope did n't go through with it ? she did n't actually get married to him . liam : no , no , no . they 're married . not because she loves him , because she 's trying to give douglas a mother , but they 're married . wyatt : well , i 'm guessing it does n't matter how he got her to marry him , just as long as she 's married . liam : oh , my god . you should have seen the smug look on his face . wyatt : i do n't know how you lasted the whole ceremony without decking the guy . liam : well , here 's the thing . you do n't know the half of it because it 's worse than we thought . wyatt : okay , how so ? liam : i overheard something . thomas and -- sorry -- flo were having a conversation , they thought they were alone , and then they mentioned a secret . wyatt : what -- a what ? liam : yeah , a secret . so apparently thomas and your girlfriend have a secret , and it 's got something to do with hope . wyatt : what ? [ cellphone chimes ] shauna : hi , honey ! oh , i came right away . luckily , i just got into town when i got your -- oh , my god . what 's wrong ? oh , honey . is it wyatt ? are you guys having problems ? flo : no , we 're -- we 're fine . shauna : [ sighs ] flo : for now . it 's him , mom . it 's -- it 's thomas . douglas : can you leave a night - light on ? hope : of course i will . douglas : it keeps the ghosts away . hope : really ? well , you know what 's better than a night - light to keep the ghosts away ? douglas : what ? hope : sweet dreams . right before you go to bed , you just close your eyes and think really sweet thoughts . ghosts hate that . douglas : they do ? hope : mm - hmm . did you remember to say your prayers ? douglas : i thank god for letting you be my new mommy . i love you , hope . hope : i love you , too , douglas . mm ! so much . thomas : well , okay , buddy . it 's time for you to get some shut - eye , so we will see you in the morning . hope : uh , actually , considering what today was about , i was thinking of staying with douglas tonight . wyatt : thomas and flo are keeping a secret about hope ? liam : i mean , i do n't know , but i 'm damn well gon na find out . wyatt : well , what else did you hear ? liam : uh , well , for starters , thomas was threatening your girlfriend . wyatt : what ? liam : yeah , i kind of get the feeling those two are not exactly buddy - buddy . wyatt : i mean ... i did n't know that flo knew thomas that well . like , i know they work at forrester and everything together , but ... liam : okay , i can tell you this much . flo called him a liar . wyatt : seriously ? she said that ? liam : yeah , she actually used the word `` liar , `` and then thomas got all upset , and he was like , `` you need to go back to vegas ! `` i think he 's just trying to stop her from letting whatever this secret is slip . wyatt : okay , wait , i -- i knew that she was going to the wedding today , but -- liam : she did n't , not really . i mean , she -- she missed the ceremony , she showed up late . she was all , like , upset and super affected and ... wyatt : really ? liam : listen . you know flo , okay ? you have known her . if anybody has a chance of getting her to open up , it 's gon na be you , and i just -- i need you to do this for me . i need you to find out what she and thomas are keeping from hope . flo : i did n't things could get any worse , but the way thomas was looking at me and what he said to me ... shauna : flo , stop . i do n't understand anything you 're talking about . flo : i 'm afraid of him , mom ! i do n't trust him ! especially what happened after the ceremony . he -- how he cornered me , and ... shauna : he cornered you ? flo : yeah . he thinks i 'm still a threat . i mean , he knows that with one word , i could -- shauna : flo , flo ... please , please , please tell me that you are still not thinking about telling hope the truth . please . she is married now , moving on with her life , just like you are with wyatt , moving on with yours . i mean , you have everything going for you . flo : everything except a clear conscience . and i 'm reminded about it every single time i have to see hope . this is n't the life that she should be living . she should n't be married to thomas . she should be with liam , and they should be raising their daughter together . but thomas is n't gon na let that happen . hope is his now , and anyone who gets in the way of that -- well , look for yourself . look . this is him following up on a threat from earlier . shauna : oh , he 's threatened you ? flo : he told me that i have to keep this secret about beth until the day i die . thomas : so , hey , i know that hope said she wants to stay with you tonight , but she really wants to stay with me . douglas : she does ? thomas : yeah . she was just being nice , you know ? she 's trying to make sure that you 're gon na be okay , but ... you 're okay , are n't you ? douglas : yeah . thomas : so when hope comes back , why do n't you tell her you 're gon na be okay . you 're a big boy , and you can stay in here all by yourself . that way , we can stay together like a mommy and daddy should . you want us to be a real mommy and daddy , right ? douglas : yeah . hope : okay , little man . time for lights out . douglas : you should be with my daddy tonight . i 'd like that a lot . thomas : hey , are you sure you do n't want hope to stay with you tonight ? douglas : it 's okay . hope showed me how to handle ghosts . thomas : oh , well , then it is settled . hope : are you sure ? i mean , i could read you a bedtime story . would you like that ? douglas : it 's okay . i 'm kind of sleepy . thomas : mm , well , that 's because it 's past your bedtime . and it 's past hope 's bedtime , and mine , too . so say good night to hope ! douglas : night , hope ! do n't let bed begs bite ! thomas : [ chuckles ] they won't . they won't . she 's gon na be just fine . i 'll make sure of that . liam : flo kept saying , `` this is so wrong . this is so wrong to do to hope . `` and so i just think whatever `` this `` is , it 's tearing her apart . wyatt : oh , my god , this ca n't be happening to me again . like , seriously . flo knows that i hate secrets . she knows that one literally destroyed my relationship with sally . liam : a secret with thomas . i mean , it 's always thomas . you can bet on it every time . here 's the thing -- you know , hope and i know how flo came into our lives . we did n't know that you two had a relationship . that was just -- that 's a coincidence , but here 's this girl , she 's got a baby . she gives the baby up for adoption to steffy . steffy and i could n't be more grateful for that , but come on ! something is going on here . i mean , flo is keeping something that somehow affects hope , and i just get the sense that thomas is forcing her to keep it a secret . wyatt : well , there 's nothing i 'd put past thomas at this point . since he came back to l.a. , i mean , the thing he 's done , it 's just -- liam : now you can add strong - arming your girlfriend to that list . wyatt : oh , i hate him . i hate him . liam : you got to -- you got to do this for me , man . flo trusts you . see if you can get her to open up . please . shauna : what was thomas thinking , sending you this text ? flo : it 's his way of making sure i stay quiet . shauna : by intimidating with this ? i have half a mind to just -- flo : no ! mom . mom , please . you -- shauna : sweetie ... flo : please do n't get involved . shauna : all right . only if you promise me to give up the notion of going to hope once and for all . flo : i ca n't do that . shauna : florence ... flo : i ca n't , mom ! right now , hope is spending her first night of marriage with a man who is lying to her , a man who knows that her baby is alive and is not telling her the truth . but i 'm -- i 'm no better . i mean , i 'm lying to hope , too , but -- shauna : florence ! as much as you want to go to hope and tell her everything , that time has passed . you can not go back and undo whatever 's been done . beth is phoebe , and she is with liam and steffy . and today , hope became a mother to a little boy that needs her . that 's her life now . just like yours . your new extended family , your job at forrester , your relationship with wyatt . that is your life now . and you ca n't risk losing everything , just like you ca n't risk setting off thomas . so you need to do everything that he tells you . you can never , ever utter a word about beth . thomas : douglas is right . this is our wedding night . we should spend it together . wyatt : uh , how -- how was the wedding ? flo : i did n't make it to the ceremony . wyatt : oh ? flo : it did n't really matter , though . i mean , it 's not like i 'm a fan of the marriage . in fact , i think it 's wrong . wyatt : thomas marrying hope , you mean ? flo : hope is in love with liam , still , and thomas knows it , but he 's just -- he 's just so arrogant that he -- wyatt : you do n't like him very much , do you ? flo : no . but i have my reasons . wyatt : look ... is something bothering you ? because you can talk to me . about anything , all right ? i 'm -- i 'm always here for you , but i just -- i need you to be honest with me . and you know how much honesty means to me , and i want to help you , so let me . flo : i love you so much . i -- it would ... it would kill me if -- it would kill me if i lost you . i do n't -- i do n't want to lose you , wyatt . i do n't -- wyatt : why -- why do you think that would happen ? flo , ever since i walked in here , you have not been acting like yourself . so just tell me . what is going on with you ? thomas : i had this all set up for us , hoping we 'd be together tonight . what do you think ? hope : i think it 's very thoughtful . thomas : thoughtful . what is it ? hope : it 's just -- it 's been a big day . thomas : our wedding day . full of memories we 'll never forget . hope : yeah . i mean , i will certainly never forget phoebe calling over to me and calling me `` mama . `` who could have expected that ? thomas : um ... look , maybe you should take a step back from phoebe , especially with a mother and father like steffy and liam . your place is here with douglas now . god , you 're so beautiful . listen , this day ... this day means so much to me . i 've waited for so long , and now it 's -- it 's here . we 're married . look , i know it may take some time for you . but douglas is so happy . [ chuckles ] he wants us to be together . i want us to be together . you 're a mother . this is our family . and tonight ... tonight is our wedding night . i want you . so much . hope : [ gasps ] i 'm sorry , thomas , i can't . not tonight . thomas : what do you mean , you -- you ca n't ? hope : i just -- i can't . thomas : [ chuckles ] it 's okay . we 've got the rest of our lives together . hope : [ chuckles ] thank you . wyatt : i know you . and i can see there 's something intense going on with you , and if there 's any way that i can help ... flo , look , you finally came back into my life . we are living together . i love you , you love me . we have to be truthful with each other . so if there 's something that you 're keeping from me , tell me . tell me now . flo : [ sighs ] shauna : you ca n't risk setting off thomas , and you have to do everything that he says . you can never , ever utter a word about beth . [ echoing ] never ! flo : no ! no ! i ca n't do it anymore ! wyatt : hey , hey . flo . hey . flo : you 're right , wyatt . there is -- there is something going on , and ... [ sighs ] i ca n't -- i ca n't -- i ca n't keep it in anymore . i have to tell you , i -- i do love you , but ... i need to tell you the truth . thomas : [ sighs ] what kind of girl gets married and does n't sleep with her husband ? [ sighs ] [ chuckles ] it 's okay . hope loves me . she 'll come around . [ sighs ] liam . he better go back to my sister and stay away from hope . and flo ... [ scoffs ] does she want to go to prison ? i -- so stupid , i just -- i 'm surrounded by idiots . [ sighs ] chill . [ breathes deeply ] okay , yeah . douglas -- douglas has a mother . and hope ... she 's mine . it 's not starting out great . but it 'll all work out . [ sighs ] [ cellphone rings ] hope : hi . liam : hey . i did n't think you 'd pick up . it 's ... your wedding night . hope : i couldn't . liam : oh , thank god . i know i 'm not supposed to say stuff like that , but ... the guy does n't deserve you , hope . hope : liam ... liam : listen , um ... there are forces at work against us now . hope : forces ? what are you talking about ? liam : i just -- i just wanted to call and tell you that i love you and you need to hang in there . hope : for what ? liam , i do n't understand . liam : i do n't know , but i 'm gon na get to the bottom of it . hope : bottom of what ? liam , you 're with steffy and the girls , and i am with thomas and douglas , and that is where we should be . okay ? we ca n't keep talking like this . we ca n't -- we ca n't think like this ! liam : you may have given up , but i still think there 's a future for us . douglas : mommy ! hope : [ sniffles ] i have to go . good night . liam : hope , i love you ! douglas : mommy ! hope : i 'm coming , douglas ! flo : this is so wrong to do to hope , and you know it is ! thomas : you go back to vegas , okay , where you belong . no one 's finding out about the secret .
liam rushes into the bikini bar to meet wyatt . he says something happened at the wedding and wyatt should have seen the smug look on thomas 's face . he mentioned a secret between thomas and wyatt 's girlfriend and it has something to do with hope . douglas asks hope and thomas if he can keep the light on while in bed as it keeps the ghost away . thomas says okay and starts to leave but hope says she was thinking of staying with douglas in his room tonight . wyatt says he was not aware that flo even knew thomas that well , not to share a secret . liam says they talked for some while . wyatt knows flo and has known her for a while so if anyone would know he could find out . meanwhile shauna rushes over to see flo thinking she is upset about wyatt . flo says no , it has to do with hope 's baby . shauna tells her please do not say she is going to tell her now . she is married and this wo n't make a difference . flo tells her that thomas told her she had to keep the secret until the day she died . thomas tells douglas that he is a big boy now . hope only told him that to make him feel better . but he can tell her that he is all right and will be okay by himself in his own room . hope returns ready to stay with douglas but he says he is kind of sleepy now and he will be okay . thomas thanks him and says it is their bedtime too and he will take care of hope . flo tells shauna to stay out of this , but shauna says only if flo gives up the notion of telling hope . she can not go back and undo anything . phoebe has a new extended family just like flo does . she can never ever say a word about this . thomas shows hope their honeymoon bed and says they need to enjoy this night . wyatt returns home and asks flo how was the wedding . she said she did not make it in time for the ceremony . and then thomas was so arrogant . wyatt senses she does not like him very much . if she wants to share with him she can tell him anything . so he wants to know what is going on with her .

rick : you okay ? amber : um , i just ca n't keep that image out of my head , and deacon and macy with our little boy . rick : it 's just -- it 's just one night , amber . amber : they want more . they definitely want more . i mean , you saw them last night . they were looking like they were -- rick : they 're not a family . that may be their fantasy . amber : yeah , but they can make it real . legally , it 's his right . i mean , he 's the father . i 'm -- i 'm just a guardian . rick : come on , amber . we 've been raising eric since birth . we 're good parents . no judge in his right mind would side against us . amber : not if we were just up against deacon , but -- i mean , with macy , that makes them a family . god , why wo n't she just leave us alone ? rick : it 's not about us , honey . it 's about mom . macy sees this as -- as payback . amber : using our little boy -- god , it just -- it just makes me so sick . rick : that is not gon na happen . trust me . everything 's gon na be okay . [ amber sighs ] amber : i 'd -- better get dressed and go pick him up . rick : yeah . macy : there 's his eyes . and how about a big smile ? how 's that ? little eric : thanks , cuckoo . macy : you 're welcome . deacon : hey , good morning . macy : good morning . did you sleep okay ? macy : i was lonely . deacon : yeah ? macy : mm - hmm . deacon : was the guest room all right ? macy : yeah . deacon : okay , great . hey , buddy , how 'bout you ? how 'd you sleep ? little eric : very well , thank you . deacon : `` very well , thank `` -- this kid is so polite . i love it . hey , let me ask you something . how -- how long do we have before amber gets here ? macy : i think we have a little while . deacon : yeah ? macy : yeah . deacon : i was thinking , maybe if we finish up breakfast , we 'd have time to squeeze in another swim . what do you think ? little eric : yeah ! deacon : yeah , you like that idea ? macy : yes . deacon : this is nice . ridge : just so we can move on this quickly . edward : mm - hmm , exactly . rick : hi . brooke : oh , good . is amber coming down ? rick : uh , actually , she went to get eric . ridge : rick , i 'd like you to meet a friend of mine , edward bradley . edward : nice to meet you . rick : nice to meet you , too . brooke : we were just filling him in on the situation with macy and deacon . ridge : edward 's gon na see if he can help us out . rick : how ? edward : i 'm an attorney specializing in family law . rick : excellent . deacon : hey , yo ! come on , guys , let 's go ! hustle up ! macy : we 'll be right there . deacon : all right . [ knock at door ] deacon : hey , uh , eric 's upstairs getting changed . why do n't you come in ? amber : so macy 's here . deacon : i guess that brooke told you we 've been seeing each other . amber : yeah , she told me . deacon : hey , you know what , amber ? i was n't actually expecting you over this early , and i -- i told eric that we could go swimming again . so you want to stick around ? we could go together . it 'd be fun . amber : gosh , deacon , how could you be so stupid ? deacon : okay , you want to run that by me again ? amber : macy ? deacon : yeah , what about her ? amber : she 's using you , deacon . deacon : right , yeah . you know , it makes sense . i mean , you hang around brooke long enough , it 's only a matter of time before you start thinking like her . i mean , who could possibly find anything -- amber : oh , stop ! stop . okay ? that 's not how i feel , and you know it . okay , i was happy for you , that you had found someone . but now that i know what 's really going on -- deacon : well , please , enlighten me . this ought to be good . amber : okay . she wants a family , and she wants my son . deacon : oh , that is such bull . hey , do n't let the fact that i 've smoothed out some of my rough edges for you . nobody cons me . amber : well , maybe you 're using eric , too . deacon : what ? amber : yeah . trying to impress macy with your fatherly devotion . deacon : is that what you really believe ? amber : no . no . okay , i know you love your son , but he 's happy with me and rick . he has a good life . i mean , why would you try to take him away from us ? deacon : wait , wait a second . who 's trying to take him away from you ? we 're having one sleepover . amber : yeah , but what happens next ? you bring this high - powered attorney over . why would -- deacon : that is because you did not give me a choice . now , look , i 'm his father . and i 'm gon na be there for him , always . and i 'm gon na do whatever i have to do to make sure of that . but as far as i 'm concerned , amber , you 're his mother . amber : yeah , well , do n't forget it . deacon : i wo n't . i promise . you know , i do n't think that i 've ever really thanked you and told you how much i appreciate everything you 've done . you know , he is a fantastic kid . i mean , he 's -- he 's bright , and he 's polite . the kid is very polite . you know , and he 's excited about everything . you know , when i was his age , i -- you 've done a hell of a job with him . and i want you to keep doing it . i mean , what kind a jerk would i be to separate a kid who loves his mother so much ? amber : you really feel that way ? deacon : yes . amber : well , what about macy ? deacon : okay , amber , what about macy ? amber : well , she ca n't have any children of her own . deacon : oh , for god 's sake , amber . she had a hysterectomy , not a lobotomy . amber : you know , macy did admit to brooke that she told you to fight us . deacon : yeah . yeah , and she also help me get the attorney . and she also help me get this place . and she also signed me as her agent . amber : yeah , and why ? why would she do that ? deacon : i do n't know . maybe because she likes me . as hard as that may be for you to believe , maybe she wants me to be happy . amber : yeah , well , that 's pretty coincidental . i mean , she just happens to fall in love with the father of brooke 's child . deacon : is this what they 've done to you ? this suspicion of everyone who 's an outsider ? everyone who 's not a forrester ? amber : do n't even try to turn this around on us . deacon : `` us `` ? honey , you ai n't one of them . you 're one of us . you 're one of the outsiders . you know what ? you 're gon na find out soon enough . edward : this woman made an attempt on your life ? brooke : she wo n't admit it , of course . edward : did you tell anyone about this at the time or report it to the police ? brooke : there did n't seem to be any point . we all thought that she died in the explosion . edward : hmm . rick : when actually she was hiding in europe . ridge : thorne found her , and they got back together . brooke : for a short time , and then that did n't work out . and then macy had to have a hysterectomy . edward : oh , i see . she 's lost her marriage , her only chance to have children . brooke : and she blames me for everything . edward : she said that ? brooke : yes , repeatedly . she even threatened me . edward : when was this ? brooke : when she got back to l.a , i ran into her at a restaurant -- las olas . she was there with her mother , and she confronted me . i remember her saying she wanted me to suffer just the same way that she had . rick : mom , why did n't you tell me ? brooke : honey , i did n't think she was serious . but obviously she was . she 's probably been seeing deacon this whole time . well , now you know why i 'm so worried about this . finding out that this crazy woman is trying to get to my daughter and also to little eric . so please tell us , there has to be some way that we can stop her . edward : there is . amber : do n't even try to change the subject . we are talking about you and macy . deacon : look , all i 'm saying is , we 're not the enemy . i mean , if you ask me , we 're all on the same side here . listen to me . we all want what 's best for eric , right ? we agree , we love him . we want this kid to be happy . amber , i 've got a lot to offer him . you know , maybe not european vacations and maybe not country club memberships , but i 've got life wisdom . listen to me . there comes a point in everyone 's life when they find themselves on the edge , right ? where you can go either way . this last year was my time . and i knew i could either keep killing myself or i can get smart , finally , about who i am , about what i 'm doing and where i 'm going in my life . i made so many mistakes , and i learned from 'em , and i want him to learn from 'em , too . i mean , come on . is n't that what you want ? amber : well , it 's what every parent wants . deacon : all right , then . amber : what does macy want ? deacon : me . amber : not just you . deacon : how do i get this through to you ? what am i gon na have to say ? macy : you ca n't . you 're not the one who can answer her questions , i am . hi , amber . it 's good to see you . you look wonderful . amber : thanks , you do , too . macy : for a homicidal maniac ? that is what brooke 's been telling you , right ? i tried to kill her . that i 'm out for revenge . that i want to steal your child and hers . and you believed her . amber : well , i do n't want to . macy : no , it 's okay . i mean , i can see how she would get to you . deacon : you know , i seem to remember a time when brooke was talking a lot of trash about you , too . macy : because she thought she was looking out for her son . just like now , she thinks she 's protecting hope and little eric . amber : look , just because she was wrong about me , does n't mean she 's wrong about you . macy : fair enough . all right , so what exactly are you worried about ? amber : i 'm worried about how close you 're getting to my son . macy : well , if you 're asking me if i care about him , i admit it . i do . edward : based on what you 've told me , the attempt on your life and the subsequent threats , we have sufficient grounds for a restraining order . brooke : to keep her away from me ? edward : from the children . brooke : we can do that ? she would n't be able to come anywhere near them ? edward : not within a hundred yards . ridge : or what ? edward : or you call the police and have her arrested . rick : wow , that 's -- i mean , that 's really playin ' hardball . brooke : i think we need to . rick : oh , do n't get me wrong , mom , i 'm all for it . how long does it last ? edward : well , a temporary injunction would apply until the hearing , about a week later . and then at that point , the judge can make it permanent -- up to three years . [ brooke sighs ] now if you 're right , and the children really are all that macy 's interested in , well -- ridge : then you 've effectively blocked her path . edward : mm - hmm . rick : i mean , what can she do ? nothing , except walk away . brooke : and that 's all i want . edward : now there is still the issue of deacon . rick : no , there is n't an issue if macy is n't there pushing him . ridge : you think he 'd lose interest , too ? rick : oh , come on . deacon never really cared about the joys of parenthood , okay ? not before macy came into his life . brooke : this is the answer . edward : so do you want me to move forward ? brooke : yes . ridge : i think you need to be aware that deacon may likely go nuts when he finds out about this . brooke : it does n't matter . my responsibility is to the children . and if deacon 's not going to protect them from macy , then i will . brooke : how soon can we make this happen ? edward : today . brooke : that fast ? edward : i just need to get to a judge , which should n't be a problem . in fact , if i could use your phone -- brooke : in the study , it 's right through there . rick : no , wait a second . if this , in fact , does work and deacon disappears again , is that when amber and i should file for adoption ? ridge : the time to have done that was when you first got custody though . edward : that would n't have worked . rick : yeah , jonathan , our other lawyer , he told us that we needed to establish a long - running record of neglect on deacon 's part before we could do anything . edward : that 's good advice . no judge would 've approved an adoption with an involved , caring father contesting it . rick : yeah , and when he did disappear we talked about filing but then we started having some problems . brooke : they were separated for a little while . edward : and now ? rick : oh , we 're back . we 're 100 % . but deacon 's back -- ridge : well , maybe we can get him to go away again . rick : with this restraining order . edward : i 'll get the ball rolling on that . and then we can talk about your options . rick : okay . brooke : thanks so much for bringing edward over . ridge : hey , anything i can do . brooke : i think we 're on the right track now , attacking the problem at its source . rick : i ca n't wait to tell amber . she 's gon na be so relieved . macy : amber , i understand your concern , but how can anybody not fall in love with that little boy ? he 's adorable and smart as a whip . and i just respect so much the job you 've done with him . amber : the job is n't done . macy : of course not , no . you have got so much to look forward to . he 's going to be starting school soon , there 's gon na be little sports teams and scouting . deacon : wait , wait , karate lessons . he has to have karate lessons . macy : i just hope that your family and deacon can work through this tension . think about it . think about how great it would be for that little boy to go to his first little league game and look up in the bleachers and see all the people that he loves cheering him on . amber : you do n't include yourself in that picture ? macy : well , i mean , deacon and i have gotten close the last few months . but , i mean , we really do n't know where this is going . amber : but you 'd like to be my son 's stepmother . macy : amber , no matter what happens between deacon and me , i could never replace you in that little boy 's heart -- and i would n't want to . amber : i do n't know whether or not to believe you . deacon : amber , have we done anything to give you a reason to doubt us ? have we turned little eric against you or -- ? amber : i do n't know . i do n't know , maybe you 're just biding your time . deacon : hey , look at me . now , you and me , we been through a lot together . and you have n't always liked what i 've had to say , but i 've given it to you straight , have n't i ? now , can you say the same for brooke ? macy : amber , we all want the same thing . we all want a happy , healthy little eric . i mean , no child can have too much love . deacon : amber , take a deep breath . feel better ? amber : yeah . deacon : you 've really been stressin ' about this , have n't you ? amber : well , he 's my son . macy : we understand that . hey , do you have to get back right away ? amber : no . macy : well , we were all gon na go to the beach . deacon : we were going to the beach . macy : yeah . you want to come ? i mean , i think it 'd really be great for eric to see you two getting along . deacon : come on . come on . amber : sounds like fun . deacon : all right . macy : i 'll go get him . deacon : i really appreciate that you 're trying to give this a chance . [ amber sighs ] amber : i 've just been so scared , deacon . deacon : i understand . how the hell do you think i feel ? amber : you know , macy 's right . he ca n't have too much love . deacon : she is right . now if we could just get brooke to understand that and maybe your husband . amber : i will . no , really . really , you do n't have to worry . i 'll make sure that we work something out that makes everyone happy . and you and macy will always have a place in eric 's heart . deacon : thank you . brooke : i 'm really glad you 're here . edward : it 's done . brooke : already ? edward : yeah , i just need to swing by the courthouse and get the judge 's signature . the restraining order will be served on macy by tonight . rick : well , why do n't you give him deacon 's address , because she 'll probably be over there . brooke : i ca n't thank you enough . edward : oh , i 'm glad to help . from what you 've said , this woman sounds like a real threat . brooke : not anymore . you 've solved our problem . the children are safe . and macy will never see them again .
rick , brooke , and ridge meet with a family lawyer to discuss brooke 's kids and everyone involved . brooke tells him the story about deacon and macy in their lives . brooke does n't know what to do but the lawyer does ... he gets her permission to have a restraining order signed by the judge to keep macy away from her kids ' till the court date . they 're all relieved ! amber visits deacon . he has a chat about him , macy , and little eric . she fusses at him like the forrester 's do with him . he reminds her she 's not really in the family either . he finally convinces her to let him see little eric . macy enters and she 's not happy about that . amber wants her to stay away from the boy . macy 's not sure what her & deacon will be doing in the future , but she loves little eric and wants the best for him . they invite her to go with them to play on the beach . she accepts . she says she 'll get her family to come to an agreement and let all of them love and care for little eric .
brooke : it 's over ? stephanie : yes . brooke : so , you never really accepted me at all ? stephanie : i did , and i would have continued to if you had come back to ridge . brooke : oh , that 's easy for you to say now . stephanie : no , it is n't . i looked -- i looked at you through his eyes . i accepted the fact that you were the love of his life -- his inspiration . you could have made him so happy , and you have n't . brooke : yeah -- yeah , that 's all you really care about . you never really gave a damn about me . as long as i did what you want , i was your family 's salvation . but if i did n't , i was just the same old slut from the valley that i 've always been . stephanie : well -- you said it , i did n't . [ scene_break ] jackie : oh , it is so good to have you back . nick : i was n't gone that long . jackie : oh , but i missed you . i was actually hoping you 'd call . just a quick one , let me know how things were going . nick : call my mother on my honeymoon ? jackie : okay , i know why you did n't . you and brooke needed your privacy . nick : well , that 's hard to come by when your wife 's naked picture 's plastered on every street corner in the free world . jackie : yeah , stephanie certainly went all out with this campaign . nick : campaign ? i would call it more of a full - on assault . jackie : well , the important thing is that it did n't succeed . and now that brooke has your ring on her finger , all the doubters , all the naysayers , they 're just gon na have to clam up . nick : do n't count on that , mother . jackie : if ridge accepted it , why would n't everyone else ? nick : brooke 's sister donna 's come to town . and donna thinks that ridge should still be married to my wife . [ scene_break ] [ knock at the door ] ridge : donna ? hey . donna : hi . ridge : i did n't know you were in town . donna : well , i just got here . ridge : hey , did brooke tell you about darla ? donna : yeah , i 'm so sorry . i mean , what a shock . ridge : yeah , it was a big blow to the whole family . donna : if there 's anything that i can do -- ridge : thank you , sweetie . donna : not a good time for either forrester brother . ridge : i ca n't complain , seeing what thorne 's going through . donna : but you lost somebody you love , too . ridge : brooke 's still here . r.j. did n't lose his mom . donna : yeah , but it ca n't be easy , seeing her with another man . especially that one . ridge : you met nick ? [ donna sighs ] donna : this morning . ridge : not a fan ? donna : well , he 's handsome , assertive . i could see how some women would be into that . ridge : not you ? donna : well , i think she could do better . and she did , when she was with you . ridge : you know , i just wish she felt that way . donna : it does n't make sense . i mean , she 's always told me you were her destiny . and now that you can finally be together , she chooses nick marone ? ridge : i made a lot of mistakes when taylor came back into my life . i do n't know what brooke 's told you -- donna : you did everything you could to make it up to her . ridge : i guess it was n't enough . my mother 's acceptance , control of this company just was n't enough . donna : and that 's what confuses me the most . i saw stephanie 's press conference -- her tribute to brooke . was that for real ? ridge : yeah , it was . donna : but brooke did n't believe her ? ridge : well , she did . did n't change how she felt about nick , though . donna : well , if it makes any difference , i think brooke 's the one making the mistake now . [ scene_break ] brooke : so this change of heart -- that was just a ploy to get me back with ridge ? stephanie : no ! i did have a change of heart . otherwise i would never have let you anywhere near him . brooke : you never really wanted me to be anywhere near him . stephanie : well , not now . now it 's too hurtful for him . brooke : well , maybe it 's just too frustrating for you . stephanie : this was never about you and nick . brooke : yes it was ! that 's what you do n't seem to understand ! stephanie : i do n't -- i offered you everything that you have ever wanted -- to be part of the family , to control the company , to love you like a daughter unconditionally . and i ca n't figure out for the life of me whether you are too stupid or too stubborn to have just simply said yes ! well , talk about lost opportunities . okay , you 've walked away from being part of the family . so you can not own the company . you 've got to give it back . brooke : no , i 'm not . [ scene_break ] nick : her sister is a beauty . she has a big problem with my objecting to brooke 's modeling . jackie : well , she 's not brooke 's husband . nick : she does n't think i should be either . jackie : ridge ? nick : that 's right . she said that ridge would absolutely think it was perfect that brooke 's naked body was plastered everywhere . jackie : well , she 's probably right . ridge is a forrester and this campaign is making them millions . and quite frankly , the boutiques can not keep brooke 's bedroom in stock . nick : and brooke deserves the credit for that . she is the best ceo in the business , mother . jackie : you 're proud of her . you want her to succeed . nick : she has succeeded . she 's got nothing to prove . neither do we . jackie : well , i 'm sure that brooke 's sister will see that , too . once she spends more time with you . [ scene_break ] donna : ridge , please , do n't give up on my sister . all i need is a little time . i 'm sure i can get through to her . ridge : i do n't think so , donna . donna : i 'm staying at her house . i 'll have plenty of time to persuade her . ridge : it 's too late . donna : no , it 's not . ridge : look , she married nick . she 's moved on . i have to accept that . donna : no , you do n't . i have n't . ridge : well , you should . donna : but you love her . ridge : that 's right . and i always will . but her future is n't with me . donna : i do n't know what brooke told you , but come on , you know my sister . ridge : well , we always have forrester creations . the bedroom line . our creative side has n't gone by the wayside here . here , look at this design . we do n't have to be a couple to inspire each other . working side by side 's probably gon na be a little uncomfortable for awhile , but we 'll -- we 'll get our balance after awhile . look what we 've been able to do with the bedroom line . with my designs and brooke 's charisma on stage , i think this campaign is unstoppable . donna : when was the last time you talked to brooke ? ridge : why ? donna : i think you better . [ scene_break ] brooke : i a not giving you anything . and i am not going anywhere . stephanie : so , you 're just going to stay here at forrester to spite me ? brooke : i 'm staying here , because this is where i belong . stephanie : i thought you just said a moment ago , you belong with nick . brooke : i do . stephanie : well , you ca n't have it both ways . brooke : nick is proud of what i 'm doing here . [ stephanie scoffs ] stephanie : oh , right , he 'd just rather have you operate somewhere else . brooke : you know , the way you 're acting , i thought you 'd be happy about this . stephanie : i 'm not happy , because you 've missed the opportunity to marry a man who really loved you , respected you , accepted you for exactly who you were , never tried to change you , never tried to control you . and instead , you end with some guy who does n't understand you or appreciate you , who wants to dominate every aspect of your life ! brooke : sounds like you 're talking about yourself . stephanie : ooh . okay , you 're not going to change . and you 're going to continue to make these terrible decisions . i do n't want you anywhere near my family . brooke : well , that 's fine . i 'm gon na be running forrester creations out of my office at marone industries . stephanie : you 're married to a wealthy man . you do not need our company . brooke : but this company needs me . stephanie : oh , right . and what about the so - called `` needs of your husband `` ? if you keep working here at forrester -- brooke : oh stop it , stephanie ! save your breath and spare me the concern . i 've earned my place here at forrester . and i 'm never , ever going to give this company back to you .

[ scene_break ] [ nick remembering ] brooke : i should have realized what stephanie would try to do . you tried to warn me . i should 've listened . nick : well , you did n't . brooke : well , i thought i could handle it . nick : it 's our wedding day . brooke : stephanie did this because she knew how you would react . she knows how frustrated you are , nick . she ran that ad to hurt us . but it does n't have to . nick : you should 've fired those people the day you took control of that company . brooke : you know that 's not the answer . nick : it 's not a question anymore , brooke . you either fire them or give it back ! nick : have the import quotes redrafted . check -- [ knock at the door ] stephanie : dominick , may i have a word with you ? nick : i actually have a few choice words for you . but in light of your recent family tragedy , i choose to hold my tongue . stephanie : thank you . i 'm sure darla would appreciate that as i do . nick : i always liked darla . she was able to stand up and put you people in your places . stephanie : yes , i love darla dearly . and i had a lot of respect for her . i respect you , too , even though we do n't agree very often . [ scene_break ] nick : you respect me ? stephanie : mm - hmm . nick : why do i feel some sales pitch coming here ? stephanie : no sales pitch . nick : good . because the last campaign you ran was n't a big hit with me . stephanie : oh , i thought it was a really wonderful ad campaign . i take full responsibility for it . nick : brooke never gave you permission to run that . stephanie : no , but i did n't have to twist her arm to take the photographs , either . nick : again , your idea . stephanie : and a very good one , i might add . nick : you thought you could push to the edge , did n't you ? but instead , stephanie , you made me stronger . you made me look at brooke for who she really is , what 's important to her . you just did n't expect me to love her for it . so i guess there 's a thank you here . thank you , stephanie . brooke and i have never been closer . nick : your son , thorne , is mourning the death of his wife , and you 're here worried about my marriage to brooke ? stephanie : well , darla 's passing made me realize something -- you ca n't leave business unfinished . you ca n't . you might not have time to tie up loose ends if you wait for another day . nick : well , i 'm not one of your loose ends and neither is brooke . stephanie : i gave brooke the stock , because i wanted to acknowledge her importance to our family and to my son . nick : she 's not important to him anymore ? stephanie : no , she married you . nick : so she should give the stock back ? stephanie : that would be the ethical thing to do . [ nick laughs ] nick : ethical and very convenient for you . stephanie : she refusing to leave forrester . does n't that bother you ? nick : no , i 'm not the one who gave her half my company . stephanie : perhaps she 's refusing to leave , at least on a subconscious level because she just does n't want to leave ridge . do n't say i did n't warn you . if you want to keep your wife , keep her away from my son .

stephanie expounds on her ‘it 's over ' to brooke . stephanie tells her she 's had her lost opportunity . she walked away from the family , so she ca n't own the company . she has to give it back . brooke says she is not going to give anything back ; she is going to stay here where she belongs . stephanie rants at her that she picked the wrong guy to marry and she does n't want her anywhere near her family . brooke rips up the papers and tells stephanie that she is never , ever going to give the company back to her . stephanie has a meltdown and vows that if she is not going to give it back , she will have to find another way to take it back ! brooke runs to ridge but now with thorne and alexandria losing darla , her problems seem trivial . he shows her some designs and that she will look amazing . she tells him her replacement will look just as amazing ; she is not going to be modeling any more . he tells her perhaps it is for the best . it would be awkward them working together . he still feels that nick does n't love her the way he does . he can look the world over and never find another logan . donna is listening at the door .
nick : these are the revised sales projections for third quarter . we took a real beating the first half of the year with the takeover , but as you can see , things are starting to look up . brooke : it could be better . nick : well , that 's where i 'm hoping you come in . brooke : i 'm an expert at marketing , so i hope you 'll keep an open mind to my ideas . nick : open mind and an open budget . brooke : hmm -- smart man . nick : thank you . i like the way you think . brooke : it 's not going to be easy , though . forrester name has become so diluted . nick : that 's the challenge here . we basically have to recreate this entire company . brooke : and that all begins with the designs . and unfortunately for us , eric and ridge the best designers in the business . clarke , however -- nick : no , forget about clarke . he 's dated . i 've known it for a while . brooke : oh . nick : basically looking to get an entire new designer . brooke : it would have to be somebody perfect . somebody with a lot of experience . somebody who could work well with you -- knows what you 're looking for before you even know . nick : well my strength here is finance ; i 'll be the first to admit it . i really do n't know a whole lot about the design process . brooke : i think i could help you there . i have somebody in mind . nick : who ? brooke : me .

nick and brooke put their heads together and he states that 's the challenge , they simply must re - create this company . and clarke wo n't cut it , they need a brand new designer . brooke volunteers . eric and stephanie squabble over his being afraid they have run brooke right into nick 's company . thorne makes an appearance , the first in many days , and is all wild for the night on the town . mother seems to approve and even volunteers to take aly who has been staying with felicia . ridge entertains ashley and they play card games with the kids . he appreciates her `` maternal `` help plus being beautiful and incredibly sexy . she feels like their being together is sort of meant to be , fate . l.a. is now her home and the forrester 's her second family . as they kiss , she says she likes where they are heading . for a while she thought he might be pulled in two directions . thorne is rather cynical about taylor ; she has moved on and he thinks she and nick deserve each other .
woman : ( sighs ) has there been any change ? ridge : no . dad 's still in a coma . woman : oh , ridge . i 'm so sorry . what can i do to help ? ridge : those papers you drew up transferring ownership of the company -- dad got sick before he could sign them . woman : but you said he agreed to sign them . ridge : he did , but his new wife donna wants to block the transfer . she says she has power of attorney . woman : ( sighs ) yeah , your father made some changes after he got married . ridge : why ? everything was fine the way it was . woman : ridge , it was n't my idea . your father 's very much in love with his new wife . he trusts her , which is why he gave her full power of attorney . ridge : what the hell can i do about this then ? woman : hope and pray your father makes it through this crisis .

( sighs ) god , you have been such a godsend . i - i think about the day when you walked through my office when i needed someone to depend on , someone to trust , and you have been there for me every time . i would n't have been able to do any of this without you . donna : owen , what -- what 's wrong ? what 's bothering you ?

[ scene_break ] brooke : honey , i do understand . you want to do what 's best for eric , but you need to think about something . having power of attorney means that you make the decisions that eric would want you to make . and he wanted ridge and i to take over ownership of the company if he could n't run it anymore . donna : but he can . i mean , once he gets all better . brooke : and once he gets better , he will always have a position at forrester , that is if there still is a forrester creations . ridge and i need to make sure that this company stays strong and viable , and right now , is just is n't . donna : and , what , your brilliant fiancé can change all that ? brooke : yes , i do , because he is brilliant , and the whole fashion industry knows that , and they also know that the leadership is lying in a hospital bed somewhere in a coma . and they 're wondering if they should continue buying and selling our products . look , i know that you have n't always gotten along with ridge , and he has n't always been fair , but just earlier , he said that he realized he much you loved eric . donna : he said that ? brooke : in so many words . donna : ( scoffs ) yeah , he 's probably just trying to soften me up . brooke : no . no , he meant it . if anything good comes out of this tragedy , it 's that eric 's children are seeing you in a different way . donna : i just do n't know if i can trust them . brooke : honey , you can . they 're not out to hurt you , not anymore . and you 'll always have a place here , donna . their main concern right now is their father and his legacy . so you have to allow them to protect it for you and for eric . brooke : please . please , use your power of attorney to allow ridge to transfer over the ownership and allow eric to recuperate , get better . you should do this for him as much as for anybody . donna : all right . i will take the leap of faith , and then i can focus on eric completely . brooke : ( sighs ) thank you . thank you , really . you 're doing the right thing . donna : i hope so .

[ scene_break ] ridge : so donna -- she 's willing to sign these papers today ? brooke : yes . she 's convinced that you mean her no harm and that you 're only looking out for eric 's interests . she trusts you , you and your family . ridge : oh , logan . brooke : ( giggles ) ridge : oh , man . how can i ever repay you ? brooke : oh , well , i could think of one way , two ways , actually , three ways that you could repay me . ridge : mm . brooke : mm . owen : i 'm sorry , donna . think what you want about me , but ridge , felicia and thorne are out to destroy you , and that is the truth . donna : whoa . wh -- where are you going ? owen : going to get my things and clean out my desk , save you the hassle from having to fire me . donna : wait , wait . wait , just wait . at least you -- you told me the truth now . you -- you may be the only person i can trust . i - i want you on my team . i need you on my team . owen : but you still believe me after everything i just told you ? donna : i hope i 'm not being foolish . owen : you 're not . donna , i promise you right here and right now that i will never betray your trust ever again . look , when felicia made me that offer , she portrayed you as a superficial gold digger who was using her father and out to destroy a family . that 's not who you are . you 're as good as they come , and i want to be there for you , help make sure that nobody takes advantage of you . during this emotional and incredibly difficult time in your life , i want you to know that you 're not alone . i 'm here for you for whatever it is whenever . i 'm your man . donna : brooke will be mad , ridge -- furious -- but i know what i have to do .
ridge confers with the company lawyer that donna 's full power of attorney is blocking his way to attain the company . donna also discusses it with owen and tells him she could never do any of this without him . brooke tells ridge that eric may be in a coma , but she feels he knows they are there and is aware of their feelings . he tells her about donna 's block with her power of attorney . and once fashion houses get to a certain point , they are damn hard to save . brooke says she will try to persuade donna the transfer is the best for the company . brooke tells donna she does n't have to feel alone , there is help . donna counters with that she ca n't let eric down . he 's counting on her to do the right thing , his wishes is to keep the company under his control . felicia blows off owen that she did n't find the right man for the job before her father had a heart attack . he never had a problem with his heart before marrying donna . he listens in at the door to brooke trying to convince donna to give over her power of attorney so ridge can run the company . donna does agree to take that leap of faith so she can concentrate just on eric .

[ scene_break ] marcus : to being my wife . ( glasses clink ) dayzee : ( chuckles ) marcus : mmm . dayzee : you know , i know i said this before , but i just want you to know how incredible i think you are . and not only are you my best friend , but you 're really hysterical . marcus : well , i would like to think so . dayzee : and you have a lot of integrity , too . and you 're so kind . you have such a big heart , and you 're always there for your friends . i just think it 's great that i 'm not only marrying a man that i love , but a man that i trust and respect without question . marcus : well , i do n't know about all that . dayzee : well , that 's fine . i can take it all back . ( chuckles ) marcus : no , no , do n't . um ... i do n't want to get all serious , especially on our wedding day , but there is something that i wanted to talk to you about .

( sighs ) ( ring ) marcus : yeah , tom , what 's up ? thomas : hey . uh , you did n't tell dayzee about anthony yet , right ? marcus : no . thomas : okay , good , 'cause i just talked to the doctor . he said he 's doing much better . marcus : that 's real good . that 's real good to hear , man . thomas : look , marcus , i know you feel bad , but there 's no reason to tell dayzee and ruin her wedding night . wait until tomorrow . i 'll call you . bye . [ scene_break ] thomas : babe , am i giving marcus the right advice here ? caroline : ( sighs ) i mean , uh , at this point , yeah . i mean , you 're right . you know , it is their honeymoon night . why ruin it for dayzee ? thomas : that girl deserves to be happy more than anyone . caroline : you 're a good friend , thomas . thomas : ( sighs ) you , too . i 'm glad you 're here . caroline : thank you for confiding in me . [ scene_break ] dayzee : hey . who was on the phone ? marcus : hey . oh , it was just thomas . he was just checking in on us . dayzee : oh . marcus : mm - hmm . dayzee : him and caroline looked so cute at the wedding . marcus : yeah , i think thomas is really into her . dayzee : maybe someday they 'll be as lucky as we are . marcus : you really are happy , are n't you ? dayzee : yes ! this is the happiest i 've ever been . and the best part is i get to feel this way forever . ( chuckles ) marcus : ( chuckles ) the way you feel right now is the way i want you to feel for the rest of your life . promise me that you will always remember how much i love you . dayzee : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] thomas : is it okay ? dr. meade : sure . come on in . caroline : hey , anthony . anthony : hey you two . thomas : how you doing , man ? anthony : i 've seen better days . but the doc says i 'll live . right , doc ? dr. meade : we 're gon na make you as good as new , anthony -- even better than before you came in here . i have to make my rounds . i 'll check in with you in a bit . anthony : thank you , dr. meade . dr. meade : you 're welcome . thomas : ( sighs ) that 's a relief . you 're gon na get out of here soon . anthony : you know , do n't you ? you know this is all marcus 's fault . [ scene_break ] hope : ( chuckles ) i will never get tired of this view . ( chuckles ) definitely one of the perks of being married to you . liam : ( chuckles ) hope : ( chuckles ) liam : yeah , any other perks ? hope : yeah , i guess i could think of a few . mm . so i have a surprise for you . liam : what kind of surprise ? hope : ( giggles ) close your eyes . liam : oh , man ! hope : close them . close them . liam : ( scoffs ) hope : ( giggles ) liam : oh , my god ! is it a puppy ? you got us puppy , did n't you ? i 've always wanted a puppy . hope : unfortunately , it is a not a puppy , i 'm sorry to say . liam : ( scoffs ) damn it ! hope : ( laughs ) ( laughs ) okay , open your eyes . liam : no way . hope , it 's not even -- it 's not even my birthday . hope : i - i know it 's not , but i know that the , uh , screen is broken on your other one , so i just wanted you to have a new one . think of it as a peace offering , so you know that i am completely over what happened between you and steffy in italy . [ scene_break ] thomas : marcus did confide in me . he told me he was responsible for the accident . caroline : marcus feels terrible , anthony . anthony : some friend . dayzee does n't know , does she ? she could n't , or else she would be here . thomas : you 're right . but i encouraged marcus not to tell her . i -- anthony , let them have their wedding day . anthony : she would want to know , thomas . thomas : maybe you 're right . i do n't know . anthony , i 'm marcus 's best man . i 'm just trying to do my job looking out for him on his wedding day . caroline : thomas was just trying to do the right thing . anthony : i used to like marcus . i thought he would be a good man for dayzee . but not anymore . if what lieutenant baker says is true , if marcus was on that phone of his texting someone when he ran into me , then this is no accident , thomas . this is a flat - out crime . if marcus was texting behind the wheel , he broke the law . [ scene_break ] dayzee : mm . back rubs . you 're being awfully sweet . marcus : well , is n't that what a husband is supposed to do ? dayzee : mm - hmm . i hope that holds up . marcus : oh , okay , i see . dayzee : ( chuckles ) marcus : so you think just because a brother got married , that i 'm just gon na slack off . dayzee : you better not . marcus : okay . dayzee : mm - hmm . you know , you have to woo me every once in a while . marcus : oh , and i 'm gon na do that until the day that i die . dayzee : all right , we 'll see . marcus : well , help me out , woman . i mean , what are your demands ? dayzee : okay . you have to bring flowers every once in a while just because . marcus : easy . dayzee : mm , you have to help me down at the mission . marcus : done . dayzee : you need to put that phone away every once in a while . marcus : yes . dayzee : okay , one more thing . marcus : name it . dayzee : just always be true to yourself and kiss me every night before we go to bed . marcus : now that is one thing i promise you i will always do . ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] hope : well , do you like it ? liam : ( sighs ) hope : ( sighs ) liam : i 'm -- y - yes . of -- of course , yes . but , hope , come on . i should be the one showering you with gifts . hope : ( sighs ) hey , i can buy my husband anything i want . ( sighs ) so many crazy things have happened to us ... liam : yeah , i 'll say . hope : ( chuckles ) most of them on our wedding day . ( chuckles ) i mean , my -- my long - lost father shows up , and then -- and then i find out , you know , that our wedding day was n't exactly what i thought it was . liam : ( sighs ) listen , i -- hope : oh , no , um , liam , i 'm not upset anymore . obviously , i wish that it had not happened . what 's important is that you told me the truth . you were completely honest with me . liam : ( sighs ) you know , we do n't have to do this . hope : i 'm sorry . this is the last time i 'm going to bring it up i swear . liam : okay . hope : no matter what happened that day , nothing will take away from the beautiful ceremony that we had . liam , i love you . i love everything about you . and i am proud to be your wife . liam : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] ridge : ( sighs ) ( clicks tongue ) ( from video ) ( church bells ringing ) steffy : the wedding bells . i thought , um ... ( sighs ) this is when you would be married to hope , and it would be over or us . liam : it 's not over , steffy . it 's just beginning .
hope and liam kiss and figure that is exactly what dayzee and marcus are doing too . hope wishes they could have gone to the wedding , but liam comments they were both too busy for a last minute wedding plus they could use this alone time . indeed she says with no computers , no phones , just the sound of the breeze . liam thinks they can think of a way to keep occupied . dayzee and marcus are kissing and he comments on what a lucky man he is . she loved the day but just wishes anthony had been there . he must have a good reason to not have been there . thomas drags caroline into the office and ca n't keep his hands off of her , starting with a kiss which he says he wanted to do since getting off the elevator . he startles her though when he starts taking off his shirt . she starts to shy away and he remarks that surely she has seen a guy take his shirt off to change . he wants to go see anthony . caroline wonders how dayzee is going to react when she finds out it was marcus that hit anthony . ridge and brooke are also kissing and she teases that she needs a little inspiration and grabs the video camera . he thinks that is cool until he realizes she means to watch dayzee 's wedding video . he fiddles around with the camera in hopes that he can put the videos in the folders that brooke wants . dayzee praises marcus as not only the man she loves , but one that she can trust and respect . feeling a little guilty , he tells her that he hates to be so serious on their wedding night but he has something to tell her . the phone rings and he gets it while dayzee excuses herself to get more drinks . thomas inquires if he has told dayzee and then says he spoke with anthony 's doctor and he is better . there is no need to ruin this night for dayzee ; just wait until tomorrow . caroline thanks him for confiding in her . marcus tells dayzee that he wants her to feel this way the rest of her life .

[ scene_break ] eric : all right , everyone . to begin with , congratulations are in order . hope , hope for the future has had two stellar quarters . that 's the good news . the challenge is to keep the momentum going . rick : not an easy task , given the loss of quinn fuller . hope : but we have n't exactly cut ties with quinn artisan jewelers because we still have wyatt . eric : i have every confidence that wyatt and ivy are gon na fill that gap . but make no mistake -- there is a gap . there are phone calls and e - mails . the rumors about quinn are building and building . how 's your mother , wyatt ? wyatt : she 's getting the help that she needs . and thank you for asking . eric : none of this is your fault . you know that ? rick : it 's still a problem that needs to be addressed . carter : yeah , we 've kept it in - house , but there 's no guarantee it 'll stay that way . eric : if it gets out , it could easily hurt the line . rick : it will hurt the line , dad . it will . maya : and make wyatt and ivy 's job all the more difficult . aly : well , this is n't going to be the most popular sentiment , but i have to say it . should n't we be cutting ties with quinn artisan , including wyatt ? i mean , does n't that make the most business sense ? [ scene_break ] brooke : katie , come on . you 've got to look at this logically . bill and i were in abu dhabi together . we were getting married . he was as shocked as i was when ridge showed up . katie : so it would appear , yes . brooke : oh , this is just some wild conspiracy theory , and it 's not helping ridge get any better . katie : you do n't think that it 's odd that bill is suddenly rushing you to the altar ? brooke : no , i told you , we 've talked about it for a while . katie : ever since ridge started closing in on the truth ? brooke : careful . you 're getting obsessive , and that could be dangerous . ridge is not well . he 's not himself , katie . and you know that better than anybody . katie : hey , i do n't want to believe that bill could be capable of something like this . he is the father of my child . brooke : well , okay . well , do n't believe it , because it 's not true . he 's not capable of that . bill is not a killer . katie : all right . i 'll talk to ridge if you do one thing for me . brooke : what ? katie : postpone your wedding . do n't get married today . brooke : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] justin : i 'm fine , i 'm fine . alison : you said you were out cold . justin : yeah , i did n't see it coming . alison : where 's ridge ? justin : i do n't know . he probably took off after he hit me . alison : and bill ? where 's he ? justin : i do n't know . my spencer jacket ... where is it ? alison : were you wearing it ? justin : no , i was starting to put it on ... on your way here , did you see a helicopter ? [ scene_break ] bill : get my helicopter back on the ground . ridge : do n't tell me you 're nervous , stallion . bill : oh , i am ! that you spent more time attending your little parades with your boy fabrice than you did brushing up on your helicopter piloting 101 manual . now put my chopper back in the hangar ! ridge : not in the flight plan . bill : what do you want ? ridge : in abu dhabi , you were on the ground , and you told justin to dump me out of the helicopter . admit it . bill : you 're crazy . ridge : admit it ! bill : go to hell ! [ scene_break ] aly : it 's nothing personal , wyatt , but you have to know you 're a liability to this company . hope : aly ... wyatt : no , she has a point . if my mother 's behavior does go public , it could cause a scandal . hope : all right . well , we 've weathered scandals before . eric : yes , we have . and we need wyatt . he 's proven himself . i have no doubt that he and his company will realize ivy 's designs perfectly well . maya : i could n't agree more . good point , eric . eric : well , that being said , let 's move on . we need to refocus the line . ivy : well , the brand has n't changed . hope for the future , the message -- that 's what resonates . maya : another great point . rick : more than ever , we need a strong marketing angle . carter : like the hope for the future diamond . that was huge . eric : something that big , yes . wyatt : and i 'm confident that we can get that success again . ivy : yeah . so am i. i ca n't even tell you how excited i am to be working with hope and wyatt . i -- i 'm not gon na take this opportunity for granted . eric : carter , did ridge sign off on wyatt 's contract ? carter : no , not yet . is he in the building ? rick : where is he ? should n't he and mom be here by now ?

[ scene_break ] ridge : air abu dhabi is confirming it now . brooke 's gon na know the truth . now , are you gon na tell her or should i ? [ alarm beeping ] bill : yeah , i did it . you bet i did it . now put my chopper down ... and i 'll tell brooke .
as bill gets settled in the chopper , he makes a list on his iphone to get to catalina , set up and go back ad get brooke . and the best part , no smidge this time to screw things up . forrester , what a joke , no wedding crashers this time . he looks for his seat belt , there is none . the pilot holds it up and asks if he is looking for this . ridge turns his head around and says guess bill thought the only thing he studied in paris was poetry . katie arrives at brooke 's and asks what was the big urgency . brooke says deacon was over and badmouthing bill and she needed a break . she tells katie that she and bill are going to catalina and getting married today . she wanted her to hear it from her first . katie says this is kind of sudden and wonders if it was bill 's idea or brooke 's . brooke says bill sprung it on her but it is something they have been talking about . katie says she wants brooke to be happy but she is n't sure that bill is who she thinks he is . does n't she wonder why he is rushing into this now that ridge is getting better and closing in on the truth . brooke offers that katie is being obsessive and that can be dangerous . ridge is not well and katie knows that . bill is not a killer . katie says okay . she will talk to ridge but brooke has to do one thing for her – put off the wedding at least for today . just for a day or two until they can sort this out . brooke says no , there is nothing to sort out . they would be married right now if it were n't for ridge . she knows ridge thinks that justin was piloting the chopper but that is too farfetched . katie says no more so than ridge falling out of the helicopter . if they are not running off to get married , then one or two more days wo n't hurt . brooke reminds her that bill does n't want to wait . katie thinks that is a big red flag . she says brooke thinks she knows bill but perhaps she does n't . he is capable of many things , maybe even murder . brooke says this is all wild speculation and she is not going to be part of it . she is marrying bill today . he had nothing to do with ridge 's accident . katie says bill broke deacon out of prison so he could go to italy and ruin hope 's wedding so he 's capable of many things . if she does n't believe that then she does n't now the man she is marrying . brooke says katie is too late . bill is already on his way to catalina to make arrangements . he 's the man she loves and he has changed since he has been with katie . at a quick meeting at fc , hope introduces ivy to othello , their director of music . carter joins and says he is late because they got hung up on wyatt 's new contract . surprised , aly asks if wyatt is coming back to work . eric speaks up and says wyatt 's company will be producing ivy 's jewelry designs for hftf . maya tells eric that is a great choice . aly asks liam if he is fine with this . he stammers that he and his brother have found a new appreciation for each other . wyatt adds that hope and her family have been kind enough to give him another chance . eric says they should all be grateful and that is why he wanted to see them all today .they 've been through a rough patch with ridge 's accident , liam 's near tragedy and other developments he is aware of . he thinks this calls for a new beginning . they are a team here . he wants all of them to work as a team and that means supporting each other and more importantly respecting each other . they all agree . eric says they had two stellar quarters but the challenge will be to keep the momentum going . he has every confidence that wyatt and ivy will fill that gap that quinn left . but make no mistake , there is a gap and he is getting more and more phone calls about quinn . he asks wyatt how she is .and to know that none of this is his fault . wyatt says she is getting the help she needs . rick says it is still a problem and carter adds they have kept it in the house but there is no guarantee that it will stay that way . eric reminds them that if it gets out it could hurt the line . maya adds and that will only make ivy and wyatt 's job more difficult . aly adds this is not going to be a popular opinion but should n't they be cutting all ties with qaj including wyatt . that would make the most business sense . she tells wyatt that it is nothing personal but he has to know he is a liability to the company . wyatt admits that if this goes public it could cause a scandal . hope says they have weathered those before . eric says yes they have and they need wyatt . he has proven himself and he is sure that he and ivy will make a good team . maya says good point and she could not agree more . eric says they need to move on and refocus . rick says more than ever they need a great marketing angle . carter says like the hftf diamond , that was huge . wyatt says he is confident they can get that success again . eric asks carter if ridge has signed off on wyatt 's contract . carter says no , he is not in the building . all are aware that neither ridge nor brooke are there .
bill : what are you talking about ? look at the jaw line on this kid . he is all spencer . look at that . steffy : i do n't think so . all i see is forrester . bill : look harder . caroline : [ laughs ] steffy : okay . caroline : yeah , well , he 's a handsome boy with incredible genes from both sides of the family . and he 's a perfect blend of his mommy and his daddy . bill : speaking of which , where is daddy ? caroline : at work . steffy : spectra . caroline : i still ca n't believe that . steffy : yeah , none of us are happy about it . bill : he is n't just pushing polyester with the enemy . he 's playing house with little orphan sally . caroline : i kind of feel like it 's my fault . steffy : you ? why ? caroline : i should have made more of an effort to reunite my family . but i did n't . i ran off to new york without thomas , and then now that i 'm back in l.a. , he 's in the arms of sally spectra . thomas : mm , okay , okay . we keep doing this , and -- and we are going to get nothing done . sally : well , i 'm just looking for more inspiration . thomas : oh . i 'm your inspiration , am i ? sally : you 're my everything . mm ! okay , all right . pump the brakes . thomas : come on . sally : pump the brakes ! no ! we have to be good . we have to be good . we have to -- we have to focus on work . thomas : okay . you 're right . you 're right . you need to stop distracting me , though . that 's the problem . sally : you 're right . you 're right . eyes on the prize . thomas : mm - hmm . monaco , spencer summit , all of it just around the corner . sally : mm - hmm . our debut on the world stage . thomas : ooh , spectra fashions versus forrester creations . sally : we have bikinis , we have swim trunks , we have sun dresses , and a killer showstopper . thomas : hmm . sally : i think we 're gon na win this sucker . thomas : there is no doubt in my mind that we are going to kill it . wyatt : i am loving what i 'm seeing . it 's elegant , provocative . i 'm telling you , dad is gon na be very impressed . zende : good . that 's the idea . ivy : look , forrester is destined to make a historic impact at the spencer summit . we 're gon na beat the pants off spectra . wyatt : yeah , we are . i do n't doubt that you will . katie : [ laughs ] brooke : you 've been spending a lot of time here lately , wyatt . nicole : aww . he misses us . katie : aww . wyatt : okay , i enjoyed almost every moment working with most of you . i 'm kidding , i 'm kidding ! no , i 'm doing my own thing at spencer publications now . r.j. : and katie 's doing awesome at your old job . katie : thank you . r.j. : it 's like you never even existed . katie : aww , he does n't mean it . wyatt : i can see that , all right ? coco : are you jealous she 's filling your shoes so well ? wyatt : no , of course not . i - i always knew she was gon na do a wonderful job . katie : [ chuckles ] thank you very much . brooke : zende , these designs are beautiful . zende : thank you , all of you , really . it was a collective effort of the entire design team . i am just happy to be a part of it . nicole : and i ca n't wait to do my thing on the runway . katie : ohh ! [ laughter ] ivy : whoo ! r.j. : mom , you 're modeling , too , right ? brooke : as a matter of fact , i am . r.j. : well , keeping with the swimsuit theme , i was thinking of having a pool party since coco and i are n't invited to monaco . nicole : hey , where 's quinn and ridge ? i thought they 'd be here . brooke : uh , i think they 're working from home today . katie : well , it does n't matter . uh , we are making great progress , and i think we are only days away from the spectra showdown . wyatt : and i hate to be biased , but i think you guys got this . katie : [ chuckles ] wyatt : i think we 're looking at a forrester victory hands down . katie : that 's right ! [ cheering ] katie : they ca n't touch us ! wyatt : definitely ! shirley : hmm . how about we add a few feathers and a cluster of rhinestones ? sally : we 're featuring swimwear , grams . shirley : i know . thomas : we are trying to keep it classic and chic and simple . darlita : competing with forrester is challenging . saul : and we all know that forrester equals boring . shirley : you are heading to europe ! you 've got to spice it up ! add a splash to everything ! thomas : oh , do n't worry . we will . and i can not wait to compete with my sister and our entire family . caroline : staying on the east coast was a mistake . bill : no regrets . you needed to be with your moms . caroline : hey , i just did n't know what i wanted . and i did n't know what was best for him yet , either , but now i do . i want my family together , and i want to be with thomas . bill : and you will be . it 'll happen . i promised you i 'd do everything i could to help you , and i meant it . caroline : thank you , both of you , for your support . steffy : we love you , and we want things to work out . caroline : me , too . all right , come on , baby . let 's let uncle bill get back to work so he can make us some money . bill : yeah , hey . do n't be a stranger , okay ? 'cause if you are , i 'll disinherit you . caroline : ha ha . that 's very funny . bill : i 'm not joking . caroline : [ scoffs ] steffy : oh , wait , do you need -- do you need help with all this stuff downstairs ? caroline : i 'm okay . steffy : are you sure ? caroline : yes , i promise . steffy : bye ! caroline : bye ! [ chuckles ] bill : that settles it . kicking sally out of that building and your brother 's life . katie : so i reached out to eva , and she 's gon na handle some pre - publicity on their end . wyatt : oh , great . yeah . oh , have her set up that interview with the prince before the whole shindig . katie : already done . wyatt : oh , nice . charlotte : wait , the prince . like , the prince ? nicole : forrester 's fancy like that , charlotte . did n't you know ?

[ laughter ] brooke : i 'm so impressed with you , katie . katie : [ chuckles ] brooke : the swimwear , monaco -- this was all your idea . katie : well , um , thank you , but i - i had a little help . brooke : you 've done a lot in a short period of time . you must be drowning yourself in work . katie : it 's busy , but i 'm enjoying it . brooke : it ca n't all be about your job , you know . you need to do other things sometimes . katie : uh , is -- is this about a love life , brooke ? brooke : are you seeing anybody special these days ? katie : um ... hmm . shirley : sally girl , this is going to be a memorable trip . saul : and i booked your hotel rooms , so that 's one for you and one for -- darlita : rooms ? saul , i 'm pretty sure thomas and sally are gon na want to stay together . thomas : she 's right . i had somebody book our suite already . thank you , though , for doing that . i appreciate it . darlita : see ? shirley : sally girl , i hope you 're brushing up on your monaco . sally : my what ? shirley : the language . you 're going to a foreign country . you 've got to be able to say a few words , you know , by the pool ordering a stiff drink . `` excuse - moi , wait - or . `` that kind of thing . thomas : they , um -- well , they mostly speak french and english , actually . sally : yeah . look , do n't worry , grams . i think we 'll get by . shirley : okay . thomas : hey , whoa , whoa , whoa . hold on , hold on , hold on . what is that ? this is frayed . saul : no . thomas : no , it 's frayed right there . look at that . guys , we ca n't have this . every inch of every piece of fabric has to be flawless . if we 're gon na compete with forrester at their own game , we have to bring our `` a `` game . do you understand ? look , fabric has to be high quality . our designs have to be perfect . presentation is paramount . we can not be going with this mediocre quality stuff anymore . saul : i did n't realize that we were . thomas : this is spectra 's comeback to prove to the world that we are worthy of being on that runway , to show them that spectra is here to stay . shirley : oh ! that was wonderful ! yes , we 're gon na do it . sally : yes . shirley : it 's gon na be spectacular . steffy : i 'll never understand what thomas sees in sally . bill : she 's like a termite , the worst kind of destructive pest . she needs to be fumigated . steffy : tell me how you really feel . bill : i want that building demolished , and i want sally gone ! steffy : easier said than done . bill : have i ever failed at anything in life ? steffy : i 'm afraid sally 's here to stay . bill : well , that 's the wrong attitude , steffy . steffy : think about it . he 's dating sally . he 's the only investor at spectra . they 're running the company together . bill : she 's no good for him . steffy : preaching to the choir . bill : and she 's no good for me , either . steffy : oh , right . yeah , your , uh , beloved , uh , skyscraper . bill : and my beloved niece . how is caroline supposed to put her family back together with sally hanging around ? a family , a company , money all in jeopardy because of that red - headed wannabe . and she 's leeching on to my summit , putting my reputation at risk ! steffy : not to mention riding forrester 's coattails all the way to monte carlo . bill : mm - hmm . yeah , and thomas is all too happy to be one of the clowns in the traveling circus . steffy : i do n't know what 's gotten into thomas . it 's like he 's turned into one of them overnight . bill : we have to get rid of sally before the summit . we need a plan , a way to drive sally and thomas apart . katie : you should really take a look at these numbers when you get a chance . wyatt : how are things going over here ? brooke : oh , good . i 've got to mail some parcels with r.j . katie : all right , thanks . wyatt : so things are shaping up . katie : yeah . yeah , we 're making some headway . wyatt : yeah . you 're really good at this , katie , almost too good . katie : well , again , i - i ca n't take all of the credit . you came up with the initial idea . wyatt : we did it together . and , you know , i really enjoyed working with you on everything . you okay ? steffy : i did n't realize how hard this has been on caroline , how much she wants her family . bill : thomas needs to step up . he 's way too swept up in that ginger . steffy : he likes that sally needs him . bill : she 's desperate and broke ! what 's attractive about that ? steffy : he likes to be the hero , the -- the rescuer . he thinks that he rescued sally . bill : right , right . he wants to be the woman 's knight in shining armor , ride up , save the day . like your father learned the hard way , there 's only one stallion . steffy : one what ? bill : nothing . look , sally 's the kind of woman that eats chumps like thomas for breakfast . she 'll use him to elevate her status , get her company 's footing back on track , and then she 'll kick him to the curb . he 'll be miserable ! steffy : i know thomas . i know he 's stubborn , and he 's fully committed to sally . bill : w - w - what are you doing ? we 're brainstorming ! you ca n't just leave ! steffy : i have to go to work . we got to get ready for monaco . bill : okay , fine ! go ! just , you know , look pretty and leave it to me ! steffy : okay , i will try to send sally back to the circus , but do n't count on it . [ door closes ] bill : [ sighs ] [ dialing ] [ ringing ] bill : it 's bill . thomas : oh , i know . we have nothing left to talk about . bill : look , thomas , i 'm sorry , okay ? i - i know i came at you pretty hard , but th - this really is important . would you please come by my office ? thomas : no , no , i ca n't right now . i 'm in the middle of making an entire collection for monaco . bill : i 'm begging you , thomas . please . thomas : [ sighs ] fine . fine . i 'll be there . sally : you have to leave ? thomas : yeah . bill spencer wants to see me . sally : well , i can guess what that 's about . thomas : do n't worry . there is nothing that bill can do or say that will ever come between us . [ door opens ] wyatt : did something happen ? you and brooke get into a disagreement or something ? katie : no , no . um , i just -- you know , it 's just been busy . wyatt : well , i - i have really enjoyed working with you on all this . katie : yeah , same here . it 's been stressful , but i can handle it . wyatt : yeah . you want to take a break , have a coffee or ... ? katie : no , i , uh , i 'm just gon na finish this up and head out . what ? wyatt : nothing . katie : do i have something in my teeth or something ? why are you looking at me like that ? did brooke not tell me that i had something -- wyatt : you 're fine . you 're fine . katie : well , then why are you looking at me like that ? wyatt : [ chuckles ] caroline : pam is showing douglas off all around the building . steffy : i ca n't believe how much he 's grown since christmas . it 's crazy . caroline : it 's insane . steffy : [ laughs ] caroline : he has outgrown all of his clothes . he 's definitely gon na be tall and handsome like his daddy . steffy : well , hopefully he 's a lot smarter than thomas has been these days . i 'm sorry , caroline . i just wish you 'd come home months ago . caroline : i actually might have had a chance . steffy : i know you two could be so happy together . caroline : yeah . yeah . steffy : i just ca n't get through to thomas . i wish i could , but i ca n't . bill : thomas . uh , come on in . i - i appreciate you coming by . thomas : yeah , well , i 'm pretty sure i already know what this is about . bill : look , uh , i would be lying if i said that i could n't wrap my head around why you would get involved with a con artist like sally . thomas : there it is . i 'm gone . bill : thomas , come on . i mean , look , give me -- give me a break . you abandon your sister , forrester , you 've aligned yourself with this woman . thomas : okay , look , bill , i 've heard enough of all these complaints that you have about sally . you do n't like her . bill : but you have n't heard it all . there 's something more , something you do n't know . thomas : look , bill , if this is about caroline and my son , you have to stop questioning my commitment to them . she left me , and i will never abandon my son . that 's it . bill : well , in the meantime , you 're here cavorting around with sally spectra . thomas : oh , god , this was a mistake . bill : just -- just hear ... just hear me out , thomas . i know you did n't have the best role model in ridge . and i 'll admit , i mean , you know , i was the playboy 's playboy back in the day . but i 've evolved . i 've learned that there is a proper way to conduct yourself with a woman . i have learned the responsibility with family . but it 's more than that . there 's something i discovered recently , something that caroline does n't want anyone to know . thomas : what are you talking about ? bill : you know that my niece means the world to me . she 's a spencer . she is my sister 's only daughter . and i look out for my own . thomas : i get it . you will always help caroline . bill : yeah , i will always do that . but , uh , i - i ca n't help her . thomas : what do you mean ? bill : caroline told me something . she did n't want you to know . but given that you are the father of her son , i felt you had a right . thomas : bill , what are you saying ? what -- what -- what are you even talking about ? bill : it 's caroline . she 's dying , thomas .
caroline visits bill and takes blame for her taking off to ny and leaving thomas and now he is playing house with little orphan sally as bill calls her . thomas tells sally that spencer summit is just around the corner . there is no doubt in his mind that they are gon na kill it . wyatt says he is enjoying every minute of working with all of them almost as much as he does at spectra . katie is doing a bang up job . zende says he is just thankful to be part of it and nicole ca n't wait to strut her stuff on the runway . wyatt says he is looking at a victory for forrester hands down . grams tells sally that she is heading to monaco and needs to spruce things up , make a splash . bill promises caroline that if it is thomas she wants then he will do everything he can to get that for her . he tells steffy that is it . he will forget that building for a moment and concentrate on her brother 's life . nicole tells ivy that zende is modest but he is very excited about his designs for the showing . katie tells brooke that it is not easy but she is enjoying all of this . she wo n't answer that question about anybody in her love life . sally tells grams that monaco speaks mainly french and even english so she thinks she has it covered . thomas tells them that presentation is everything . they need high quality as this is spectra 's comeback . they are here to stay . bill tells steffy that sally needs to be fumigated . he wants that building razed and done . how is caroline going to put her family together with that red - headed wannabe around ? thomas seems happy to be traveling with this circus . they need a plan to drive sally and thomas apart .
steffy : oh , my god ! liam : steffy ... steffy : how could you , liam ? i am taking care of our child ! we have a family . and you 're here with her ! [ thunder rolling ] brooke : mmm . [ giggles ] ridge : mmm . brooke : oh , god , it 's been a long day . ridge : yeah . brooke : yeah . ridge : what a great show , though , right ? brooke : i know ! hope and thorne and everybody , they did such a great job . it was amazing . ridge : yes , they did . i was n't sold on this whole re - launch thing , but i got to tell you , hope and her team , they came up with a great collection . brooke : [ giggles ] it 's true , hope for the future had a triumphant day . ridge : mm - hmm . brooke : the designs and the dancing , it all worked out . ridge : mmm . brooke : hope should be very proud of herself . ridge : mm - hmm . brooke : and now , she just needs to focus more on the baby . [ thunder rolls ] bill : i told you how this would go down . was i wrong ? justin : no , it was just -- bill : no , i was n't wrong ! you caught liam and hope together at the fashion show . and do n't tell me you 're feeling guilty about sending me that picture . you knew damn well i 'd show it to steffy . justin : yeah , but i did n't think you would propose to her again . bill : well , that 's what you do when you want a life with someone , is n't it ? look , i 'm offering steffy a way out of this mess , a way to be happy . she will never have that with liam . she will always have to share him with hope . steffy has to decide to stop being a pawn in liam 's game and move on with me . ridge : yeah . hope needs to focus on her pregnancy more . and she needs to reduce her stress and take care of herself . brooke : and liam has been a big help in that regard . his support means the world to her . ridge : sure . as long as she understands that his priorities lie with kelly and with steffy . they 're a family . brooke : liam will have two families now . ridge : well , he 'll be there and he 'll ... he 'll support the kid , and he 'll be a good dad . but his commitment is to steffy . it took a while for these guys to get there , but they 're there now . they 're gon na get married very soon . justin : [ sighs ] bill , you know steffy wants to marry liam . bill : past - tense . wanted to . i do n't think she does anymore . justin : you said steffy went over to forrester ? bill : mm - hmm . is that really a shocker ? i mean , this is steffy we 're talking about . she 's not gon na sit around boo - hooing . she wants answers . justin : steffy 's gon na confront liam . bill : you do n't think that 's a good idea . justin : depends on how you want this to end . bill : i want it to end with the truth . yeah , i want to be vindicated , and if that picture 's any indication , i will be . hell , i would n't be surprised if steffy finds liam and hope in each other 's arms . and if she does ... [ thunder rolls ] ... the end is here . liam : i 'm sorry . hope : we did n't plan this . steffy : you -- do n't ! you do n't talk to me . liam : it 's -- steffy , it 's true , though , it just ... happened . steffy : is that supposed to make me feel better ? that our relationship is so inconsequential , you could just throw it away ? liam : i 'm so sorry . i 'm -- steffy : no , no , no . stop . stop . you do n't -- you do n't get to apologize to me . not after everything i did for you , after all the times i apologized to you . oh , my -- i ca n't even -- i ca n't even look at you . you know , you talk about principles and you talk about values , and look what you just did ! how could you do that , liam ? how could you ? not just to me , but to kelly ! our little girl ! [ thunder crashes ] brooke : [ sighs ] ridge : hey , wow , look at you . you look more relaxed . brooke : oh , yeah . i feel more relaxed . it was a long day . ridge : yes , it was . did you see liam before he left ? brooke : no . are you looking for him ? ridge : no , steffy was . brooke : wait , steffy was at the showing ? ridge : she came by after . i do n't know , i just ... i kind of felt like there was something wrong . bill : steffy does n't deserve to be treated this way . i mean , deep down , did she know it was going on ? okay . but she was n't ready to give up . she was determined stay loyal . and for what ? for what ? to be treated this way ? to have to beg and grovel for liam 's forgiveness ? it had to hurt like hell . and i 'm sorry about that . but steffy needed to know the truth . she had to see it for herself . justin : that 's gon na be an ugly confrontation . bill : yeah , especially because my windshield - wiper son will make more of a mess of it than it already is . he 'll apologize and beg for her forgiveness . `` i 'm sorry , steffy , but i -- i just need more time to make up my mind ... `` you got to be kidding me . i mean , i -- i hope she will finally kick him to the curb . justin : how likely is that ? bill : more likely than it was this morning . justin : like you said , steffy was n't completely in the dark . she knew liam 's feelings for hope . they were almost married before kelly was born . so , yeah , she gets the picture now . but she also put a lot of work into that relationship . bill : there 's proof , justin . i mean , steffy has seen undeniable proof that liam and hope want each other , that they belong together . liam : i do n't , um ... i do n't really know what to say here . steffy : oh , do n't say anything . you knew i did n't want you to come here . you could have been at home with me and kelly . i thought we were doing this , liam . we live together . you asked me to marry you , and i said to wait , so you turn to hope ? liam : that 's -- but that 's not the situation , though , steffy . steffy : you knew i wanted to marry you ! hope : i should go . i should let you two talk . steffy : oh , now you want to leave us alone . unbelievable . unbelievable ! you both made me feel so guilty for so long ! for one horrible mistake with bill . you know , i did everything i possibly could to regain your trust , and now you 're here ? with hope ? you are such a hypocrite ! i really ca n't believe this . all this time you were spending with hope , `` working on her line . `` how long has this been going on ? how long has this been going on ? liam : steffy , i -- i tried to talk to you about this . the situation is different now , and i got a lot to figure out , but this -- this was not planned , okay ? i have n't been sneaking around behind your back . we just -- we got caught up in a moment . hope : he 's telling the truth . steffy : so you get caught up in the moment and , what , you just ... you just give in ? i just had your child , liam . i ca n't even do that yet . liam : steffy , i -- i feel ... i feel awful , but this is not what you 're saying it is . steffy : then tell me ! tell me what it is ! you act like you 're so innocent , but you do something like this . what i did was wrong , and i begged for your forgiveness . i begged and i pleaded only to find you two messing around . well , i 'm done . i am done begging . liam : steffy , you have -- steffy : no , i 'm out . no , i 'm out , i 'm done . no , you 've destroyed our family ! [ door slams ] brooke : steffy seemed upset ? ridge : she seemed tense . brooke : well , that 's understandable , right ? it was hope 's big day , and liam wanted to be there at the showing . ridge : yeah , but steffy should n't have to worry about them spending time together . brooke : is that why she came to the office ? ridge : i do n't know . it just -- it seems that way to me , you know , the relationship they have , and ... hope 's pregnancy . brooke : it has complicated things for all three of them . ridge : i 'm glad you see it that way . brooke : well , i do see it that way , but i also see that it was meant to be . ridge : yeah . now , liam and steffy , they already have a baby , so was that meant to be , too ? i guess so , huh ? brooke : liam 's gon na be a great father to both of them , but hope 's pregnancy has given him reason to reflect on his relationship with her . ridge : their relationship exists because of bill 's lies and manipulations . brooke : [ sighs ] ridge , that 's not fair . ridge : i do n't know if it 's fair or not , but every problem , every complication , everything points back to bill spencer . justin : you were right about hope and liam , i 'll give you that . bill : damn right , i was . i was right about all of it . what did i say ? you got to see the big picture . connect the dots . liam and hope will end up together , and when they do ... justin : steffy will turn to you . bill : she has before . justin : look where that got her . that 's what got this whole mess started in the first place . liam , hope , hope 's baby -- given all of that , you 'll be the last person steffy turns to . bill : you 're forgetting one thing . justin : oh , what , your -- your winning personality , your irresistible charm ? bill : nah . that only works on you . it 's meant to be . steffy and i are written in the stars , justin . she has n't accepted my proposal yet , but she will . it 'll happen . it 's been obvious to me from the beginning . this only ends one way . steffy with me . hope : i have never seen her like this . she was so hurt , liam . liam : i know . hope : what have we done ? liam : well , we told her the truth . we did n't plan this . and , um ... it 's gon na be okay . it 'll be okay . hope : she is heartbroken , liam , and we did that to her . liam : i got to find her . i mean , shock like that , i don't ... i do n't know what she might do . steffy : may this ring be a sign of a love that will never end . looking for a reason why why the dark comes out some days why it takes your peace away steffy : liam ! and it breaks you down inside when your peace like a river runs dry like the desert land i 've seen the darkness fall and rise up from the sand from the sand steffy : oh , my god ! wish i had the words [ truck horn blares ] steffy : [ gasps , screams ] [ panting ] oh , my god ... [ knocks on door ] hope : mom ? brooke : hope ! what are you doing home so early ? is everything okay ? hope : no , is -- is ridge home ? brooke : no , he ran out . what 's going on ? you seem upset . hope : something happened , and i hope that you 'll understand . brooke : understand what ? hope , i ca n't help you if you do n't tell me what it is . hope : liam and me . brooke : liam and you what ? what happened , hope ? liam : steffy ! hey , steffy ! are you here ? stef -- amelia : shh ! liam : hi , amelia . amelia : kelly just went down . steffy : um , listen , have you seen steffy ? amelia : uh , she left a while ago . i thought she was going to forrester to see you . liam : and she has not come back ? amelia : no . liam : and she has n't called ? amelia : no , is everything all right ? liam : yeah , i just -- i -- i just got to find her . where are you , steffy ? bill : show 's over ? steffy : you could say that . bill : you saw liam . i was n't wrong to show you that picture . you needed to see what was going on with hope and liam . you understand ? steffy : yeah , no , i , uh ... i get it now . i still do n't believe it . i just keep replaying it in my mind . bill : you know i 'm always here for you . i know you do n't want me to say that , but ... i 'm happy to see you . steffy : you warned me . and i did n't believe it . i just thought i knew better . bill : what happened ? you found liam and hope together , did n't you ? steffy : you were right . you 've always been right , bill . how many times has he blamed me and he 's made me feel guilty ? accused me , judging me . i begged for him to come home . we have a child together . i was with ... i was home with our child , and he was with hope . he was in a dressing room . the father of my child was half - naked with hope ! [ glass shatters ] [ panting ] you know , he acts like he 's so innocent . he 's not innocent . how could he do this to me , bill ? how could he do this ? how could he be with hope ? [ sobbing ]
steffy opens the dressing room door to find liam making out with hope or at least half way there with his hand up her robe and kissing all over her . steffy tells him he has a child she is caring for . they are a family and here he is with her ! bill tells justin that steffy will always have to share liam with hope . it is time they all move on . ridge gives brooke a foot massage then tells her that hope needs to focus on her own pregnancy and leave liam out of it . liam and steffy will be married soon . hope tells steffy they did not plan this . sheepishly liam says he is so sorry . she tells hope not to say a word ; she is talking to her husband . but to hope she says she talks about values and principles and now look at her . bill tells justin that it is not right that steffy has to beg all the time for liam 's forgiveness . it is time she gives up and maybe that will be today . he hopes she finally kicks him to the curb . hope wants to leave and steffy says that is rich . now she wants to leave but could not leave her husband alone . and all this time how long has it gone on with him pretending to work with hope . she says what she did was wrong but she begged for his forgiveness and she will never do that again . he destroyed her family . she leaves with a determined look on her face . brooke is surprised when ridge says steffy stayed away but she did come by his office and he thinks she will see liam after the showing today . every complication points back to bill spencer .

nick sees his mom on his boat straightening up his clothes , etc . she says she 's doing it 'cause he has a big date with brooke and she likes her ! she leaves and throws his bag of dirty socks to him . amber gets home and finds shock in the fact rick & brooke issued macy a restraining order . she thinks it 's a bad idea 'cause it will push deacon even more to get his kids . she likes macy and thinks she 's not out for revenge on brooke . brooke & rick think the opposite . rick finally gets amber alone and convinces her things will be o.k . ridge knows about brooke 's date 'cause rick told him earlier . he thinks that 's not a problem ! deacon & macy talk then kiss . she 's served the restraining order ( as i said before ) . they 're both upset and deacon calls his lawyer . then he tells macy that brooke & rick are the only ones behind this and they will not get away with it ! macy knows this means they think she 's a threat to his kids . they do n't want to stay away from each other but they have to . deacon finally thinks of a brilliant idea : they ca n't restrain her if she 's mrs. deacon sharpe ! she wants him to get serious but he is ! he says he loves her and she 's wonderful to his kids . he asks her to marry him ! then they kiss !
nick : there you are . bridget : what are you doing here ? nick : well , i heard the bride was in here . and i wanted to see how you looked . you look -- you look good . bridget : you do n't look too shabby yourself . nick : yeah . bridget : but you ca n't be in here . you ca n't see my dress . you need to get out . nick : whatever . bridget : it 's bad luck . nick : well it 's bad luck if you 're superstitious . i 'm not superstitious . unless , of course , you have some more dead relatives that are gon na show up . bridget : no . not a chance . nick : sure about that ? bridget : are you kidding me ? stephanie 's in charge . nothing is going to spoil our big day . eric : i know . stephanie : sally , i can see that you 're enjoying yourself . sally : i certainly am , highness . i 'm extremely honored to be here . though , probably , it should n't come as much of a surprise , since both thorne and thomas are working for me now . eric : now sally , you have to promise me , no talk about business today . stephanie : excuse me , will you ? ridge and taylor just arrived with the kids . i 'll be back . steffy : hey , grandma . phoebe : hi . ridge : hello , mother . stephanie : hello , darling . oh , i 'm sorry that we 're all here together . taylor : that 's right . i was at bridget and nick 's first wedding , too . stephanie : in the bushes . [ all laugh ] but you are now here where you belong , with your family . well , you might as well relax . they 're not gon na start the ceremony for a while . you 're still here ? brooke : it 's my daughter 's wedding . stephanie : you 're not welcome in this house . [ scene_break ] brooke : you ca n't control everything , stephanie . even though you think you can . but you 're about to find out just how wrong you are . nick : hey there . glad you 're here . brooke : at least somebody is . nick : well , bridget and i are glad you 're here . excuse me a second . massimo : go ahead , dante . i 'll be with you in a minute . nick : how 'd the weasel work his way onto the guest list . [ massimo chuckles ] massimo : i invited him . after all , he and bridget are friends . and i thought it would be nice if he met her family . listen , i did n't see your mother 's car outside . is she here yet ? [ scene_break ] jackie : okay , here we are . think i got this one right . mark : my third , right ? jackie : i do n't know . who 's counting anyway ?

[ phone rings ] excuse me . i have to take this . i wo n't be a minute . brooke , are you at the wedding ? brooke : yes , and stephanie 's not very happy about it . jackie : good . brooke : how are things there ? jackie : well , making progress . brooke : but mark has n't admitted to helping stephanie fabricate her heart attack ? jackie : not yet . but i 'm working on it . bye . [ jackie sighs ] mark : is everything all right ? jackie ? is everything all right ? what 's wrong ? jackie : my son -- he 's getting married tonight . mark : why are n't you there ? jackie : 'cause it 's at stephanie 's house . and she 's made sure that i 'm not invited . mark : to your own son 's wedding ? jackie : she 's doing to me what she did to brooke . she used her illness to force ridge to renew his vows with taylor . and now she 's using my son 's wedding to get between massimo and me . mark : mr. marone would let her do that ? jackie : he ca n't stop her . mark : if he does n't try , he does n't deserve you . jackie , you need to forget about massimo . move on . let me help you . [ scene_break ] stephanie : ladies and gentlemen , boys and girls . the bride is still dressing . so i thought i 'd take a moment and thank you all for coming on such short notice . and even though it 's been a hastily arranged wedding , it 's going to be lovely , i promise . darla : of course . stephanie : the bride 's father is especially happy that his daughter is going to be married here , at our home . for me this is a celebration of families -- the new one that bridget and nick are starting . and we hope their journey together is long and happy . and , for our family , i think it 's sort of a rejuvenation . my son , ridge , has been reunited with his beautiful wife , taylor . the true love of his life . stephanie : this family has had it 's ups and downs over the years . hopefully , those days are over . we 're welcoming a new member to the famlily . today , nick -- this is a fresh start for him and for bridget . for all of us , really . hopefully , this family has a happy and healthy future to look forward to . [ applause ] brooke : watch out , stephanie . your future may not be as happy as you think . [ scene_break ] stephanie : i 'm just going to assume that nick and the minister are ready to start anytime . eric : jackie is n't here . stephanie : she was n't invited . eric : she 's nick 's mother . stephanie : eric , we ca n't allow people to disrupt our lives that do n't support this family and have it 's best interests at heart . [ scene_break ] jackie : mark , what on earth are you doing ? mark : jackie , i could n't help myself . you are so beautiful . jackie : oh , you 're drunk . mark : no , i 'm not . it 's you . i mean , you 're intoxicating . that accent -- jackie : okay . no more tequila for you . mark : i know that i 'm coming on strong , j . but i was n't sure the first time that you invited me to dinner . but i 've been here twice now . and i feel something . i mean , the way that you 've been looking at me and worrying about me -- jackie : mark , mark , mark . okay , i have been thinking about you , but not in the way that you think . i 'm not looking for a fling , doctor . what i want from you is something much , much more . mark : anything . jackie : what i want from you is for you to tell me who deposited into your bank account $ 1 million . [ scene_break ] taylor : hello , brooke . brooke : surprised to see me ? taylor : should i be ? brooke : seems like your friend , stephanie , left the bride 's mother off the guest list . taylor : well , i hope you know i do n't encourage that kind of behavior . brooke : no , you just benefited from it . taylor : i understand you 're upset . brooke : not as upset as you 'll be when you find out what your friend did to get you back with ridge . [ scene_break ] stephanie : what was that all about ? taylor : i have no idea . do you ? how can you hold onto one - of - a - kind blonde longer ? ridge : hey , have you seen thomas ? eric : no , i have n't . something wrong ? ridge : he 's avoiding me . eric : try sally . he 's probably socializing with his new boss . [ scene_break ] ridge : hi . brooke : hi . ridge : you did n't bring the kids . brooke : i did n't want them to feel as uncomfortable as i do . ridge : well , they 're still a part of this family . i miss them . brooke : they miss you , too . ridge : i 'd love to see them . brooke : maybe next week . ridge : you would n't mind ? brooke : i was wrong to blame all this on you , ridge . the truth is , you were as much a victim as i was . ridge : what does that mean ? brooke : i do n't want to say anything else until i have ironclad proof . ridge : come on , you 're talking in riddles now . i do n't get it . brooke : you will , before this evening is up . you will see everything as clearly as i do . [ scene_break ] stephanie : you better put a stop to that . taylor : why ? stephanie : because she 's up to something . taylor : stephanie , she 's not going to seduce my husband at her own daughter 's wedding . stephanie : are we talking about the same woman ? taylor : i 'm not really sure what we 're talking about . why should i be concerned about ridge ? unless you have some reason to doubt his commitment to me . stephanie : all right , for the moment , i 'll be worried about bridget and the commitment that nick is getting ready to make to her . everyone 's here . so i guess we might as well be started . [ scene_break ] mark : i do n't know what you 're talking about . jackie : the million dollars you received from a numbered swiss bank account . where did it come from ? mark : you 've been looking in my accounts ? jackie : i 've been looking into your involvement with stephanie forrester . she paid you , did n't she ? she gave you that money . mark : you know what , that money is none of your business . you know , invasion of privacy 's a crime . jackie : so is fraud , mark . like the one that you and stephanie perpetrated against her family . mark : look -- like i said -- i do n't know what the hell you 're talking about . jackie : okay . we can do this one of two ways . one , you can tell me exactly how you helped stephanie . and , i promise you , i will do my best to protect you and your reputation . or two , i could just keep digging . and , i will get to the truth . and then you 'll go down with her . mark , come on . do n't let stephanie ruin your life . not like she ruined mine and brooke 's . do n't be another one of her victims . we can stop her . we have to stop her . stephanie forrester 's reign of terror has to end .

[ scene_break ] [ cell phone ringing ] jackie : it 's stephanie . is n't it ? do n't answer it . [ answering machine beeps ] stephanie : mark ? i do n't understand why you 're not answering . i mean , how does the hospital get a hold of you if there 's an emergency ? listen , remember what i have said to you . do n't talk to anyone . jackie : it 's too late to deny it , mark . a little more digging and then i 'm gon na know the whole story . every sordid little detail . the young , greedy doctor in league -- mark : look , it was n't like that ! all right ? i did n't know . jackie : you did n't know she was acting ? come on . mark : i did n't know what would happen . when stephanie came into the hospital , something was wrong . her blood pressure was elevated , her heart rate . it could have been a palpitation , angina -- jackie : but not a heart attack . mark : no . jackie : you said it was . mark : look , it all happened so fast . i did n't think -- stephanie forrester is a huge donor to the hospital . i mean , we depend on her . when she asked me , i did n't see the harm . i did n't ask for money . i did n't think anyone was gon na get hurt . jackie : she paid you the money to keep you quiet . mark : she told me that she was grateful to me for saving her family . and the money just showed up in my account . jackie : well , you might have saved her family , mark . but you destroyed brooke 's . mark : i did n't know that stephanie was going to use her condition to manipulate ridge . jackie : but that 's exactly what she did . say it , mark . say stephanie staged her heart attack . mark : yes . jackie : and you helped her . mark : yes , i helped her . jackie : say it . say all of it . mark : stephanie forrester paid me $ 1 million to help her fake a heart attack . jackie : got her . we 've got her .

the forrester 's entertain the little ones ; the sound is chaotic but exhilarating . stephanie wants all her children and grandchildren around . she is worried about thorne , but delighted ridge is spending so much time with ashley . thorne is having a high old time at the beach club with the champagne flowing like water . as other models do their thing , he enjoys but sees darla 's face . how about popping a few more pills ? then he spies taylor and nick and is rude to taylor who only said she was glad to see him having a good time . not a good time , he muses , no one can do that but darla ! and he accuses taylor of never loving him and now he is with this joker . nick is surprised to find out from taylor that brooke already told her about her working with nick . ashley is relieved that the box contained exquisite diamond earrings and not a ring . she kisses him and allows him to guide her into the bedroom . rick warns his mom about working along nick . she explains about the almost kiss , but she and nick agreed it will never happen again .
rick : why are we in such a hurry to yank forrester away from dad ? brooke : nobody is doing that . thorne : look , the whole world knows what happened to dad , and they 're watching , rick . rick : okay , so let them see us take care of business while dad ca n't . ridge : that would say we 're treading water , rick . important decisions are getting postponed . product lines are n't getting approved , and our future plans are on hold . felicia : right , and we ca n't afford for that to happen . our buyers need confidence , rick . brooke : you all will get your fair share . this is just the quickest , most dramatic way to make the transfer . felicia : does donna know we 're waiting ? brooke : she 'll be here .

( sighs ) god , i know you love me , and i ... i do n't need anything else from you . the company , the house -- i 'm ready to walk away from it all . but are you ? eric : forrester creations is my company . it 's my company . i built it , and i 'm gon na run this company , and i will be the one who decides when i step down . i love this company . it 's my lifeblood . it gives me purpose and determination , and i will not give it up . donna : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] beth : hmm . this is my recipe ? katie : oh , it 's that bad , huh ? beth : no , it just -- lucky you having me as a mom . katie : ( chuckles ) yeah , well , you know , whenever anyone got sick or died , we 'd always make lamb stew and a fresh loaf of bread . beth : oh . are you baking bread ? katie : i got brown ' n serve . beth : do i remember what that is ? katie : it 's kind of how it sounds . beth : ah . katie : you know , bridget 's so busy . she 's at the hospital . she 's working . she 's visiting her dad . i just figured they needed a nice meal to come home to , so do you want to drive over with me ? beth : oh , um ...

[ scene_break ] bridget : his eyes were open when i first came in . nick : is that good ? bridget : it 's just kinda like sleeping with your eyes open . nick : i 've done that . in fact , i think we 've had whole conversations where i was sleeping with my eyes open . nick : ( sighs ) ( scoffs ) bridget : what ? what is it ? nick : i just was thinking about the last time i was in this hospital . bridget : i know . i have been thinking about that , too . i 've been thinking a lot about katie , actually , all the lessons that -- that i learned from her . nick : well , we 're not givin ' up on your dad , just like we did n't give up on katie . bridget : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] katie : the antirejection drugs were n't working . they tried every combination . they raised the dose as high as they could without killing me , but i still had a fever . i was rejecting the heart , or the heart was rejecting me . i do n't know . nobody wanted to say anything , but it was on all of their faces . i was gon na die . and there was always this connection , this attraction between nick and me , and everybody knew it . and bridget -- she did this extraordinary thing . ( sighs ) she gave him to me for the time i had left . beth : how do you mean ? katie : we spent so much time together . we ... ( sighs ) we went to catalina one day , and it was amazing . it -- i could have died right then and there , just stop taking my medication , let the ocean wash me away . nick would n't let me . he made me realize that i have a life worth living . in many ways , that was the best day of my life . but ... those are just memories now . they 're just photographs that we have to lock away because nobody really wants to be reminded of it . but every now and then when i 'm alone , i - i allow myself to remember how happy i was that day . there 's no harm in that , right ? no one has to know . beth : no , baby , no one has to know . [ scene_break ] brooke : is this true , felicia ? felicia : and do n't expect me to apologize for it either . you are desperately , epically wrong for my father . the only thing you have over him is a sexual advantage , so having the exact same thing over you seemed like fair game . donna : ( scoffs ) and you people actually expected me to trust you . ridge : wait a minute . let 's not get derailed here by my sister 's poor judgment . we all came together to do what 's right for my father . donna : oh , what 's right for you , you mean ? ridge : for the company , donna . it 's a family business . donna : no . no , ridge , it was . brooke : honey , i know you 're upset . what felicia did was outrageous , but this can not be an emotional decision . donna : how can it be anything else ? i love my husband , and his children ca n't even respect him . nobody is taking anything from eric , not while there 's a breath in my body . owen , open the door . felicia : wait a minute . donna : i said open it . felicia : ohh ! owen : come on in . donna : come in , jarrett . ( sighs ) jarrett : we 're all so sorry to hear about eric . donna : thank you . jarrett : has there been any change in his condition ? donna : my husband 's body is repairing itself . that 's what he needs , and when it 's time , he 'll come back to us . woman : that 's beautiful , ms. logan . donna : mrs. forrester , please . ridge : look , we 're not really prepared to take questions just yet . donna : that 's correct , but , um , i do have a short statement . we at forrester creations want to thank our friends around the world for their best wishes towards my husband 's recovery . someday soon he will stand here and thank you himself . i 'm sure of that . until then , it 's our job to protect his legacy and keep it vital and competitive . look to his son , rick forrester , who 's head of our international division , to take on more responsibility in our day - to - day operation . he and his import / export people will be working directly with my son marcus , who will be supervising shipping and receiving . woman : will thorne be resuming his former position as president ? donna : thorne and felicia forrester have been devastated by their father 's illness and will be stepping down . jarrett : then ridge will fill in as c.e.o . and president ? donna : ridge will be leaving the company , as well . i will be running forrester creations .
the forrester 's are waiting in the board room , waiting for the transfer of ownership . donna is at eric 's bedside telling him this is wrong . she knows he ca n't tell her now what he wants her to do , but she will adhere to his last words to her that he will decide when to step down . he will not let this happen . she joins the others in the board room before the press is allowed in . things come to a halt when donna informs them that she is not qualified to run the company , but legally she has that right and she is not signing anything . they are all shocked when donna tells then about the $ 200,000 that felicia offered owen to break up her marriage . felicia slaps owen and tells him he is fired . donna stands up to her and says she is not the one in charge and has no right to fire anyone . felicia was the one who tried to betray her father and trash donna in the process . katie makes a big dinner for bridget and nick . she thinks they deserve it since bridget is spending so much time at the hospital both working and to be with her dad . nick just happens to stop by to check up on her and beth and has a lively exchange with katie . beth tells katie later that she could n't help but notice how she lit up when he walked into the room . katie admits she is a little bit in love with him , and she thinks for a short while perhaps he was in love with her too . now he is married and they are friends , married people can have friends .

ridge looks at liam and hope 's videos and is perplexed as he thought one was deleted . brooke catches him at the office trying to decide what to do about that information . clearly he 's not so sure about hope and liam now . anthony tells lt . baker and son with dr. meade watching that he does n't know why they are here . it was anthony who hit him while texting and he needs to be taught a lesson . marcus has to tell dayzee and she is shocked when he says he knows why anthony did n't show up at the wedding . he had an accident and was in the hospital . she is even more dazed when marcus says he was texting her at the time . he tells her it was an accident and anthony is gon na be okay and he did n't want to worry her on her wedding day . he 's even going to pay for all of anthony 's medical bills . it 's no excuse and he takes full responsibility . it was an accident and she has to believe that . he will take her to the hospital now . there , marcus tries to make it right by saying he knows it is against the law to text while driving , but he was only teasing dayzee about her last day as a single woman . if he could take it all back , he would . anthony tells him that he was more than distracted . perhaps he would like to revise that statement to lt . baker .

'cause , you know , it 's easy to talk about , oh , the sanctity of wedding vows . but those vows , those vows were said under a false assumption . so how -- how am i supposed to do that ? how do i respect those vows ? i love her so much , eric . i love her so much . i always have . i always will . and i - i do n't really care -- [ laughs ] i do n't care if pursuing her is the wrong thing . i - i am not gon na give up . i 'm not . i 'm not gon na give up until we 're back together the way that we always planned . i 'm , uh ... i guess i 'm gon na get some shut - eye . eric : all right . i ought to give you some space . liam : no , no , no . you do n't have to go anywhere . eric : i 'm gon na be up for a while . i 'll be over here . liam : okay . [ keys clacking ] eric : [ thinking ] my dear , i 've enjoyed our time together . but i ca n't see it going any further . it was what it was . and that was a joy for me . but all bad things -- even when they 're really good -- must come to an end . [ cell phone whooshes ] [ scene_break ] quinn : maybe you 're right . maybe i am getting caught up in my own momentum . deacon : you do that sometimes . and normally it 's pretty adorable . but i think this time you 're tempting fate . quinn : yeah , i do n't want to lose my son . this limited access is bad enough . i do n't know . maybe i have n't thought things through . deacon : i mean , you could blow everything . quinn : [ sighs ] i know . i know . i hear what you 're saying , okay ? and i - i -- i need to preserve whatever relationship i have left with wyatt . and i ca n't -- i ca n't lose eric . i - i 'm not ready to ... to have him go out of my life . not when he 's become so important to me . look , thank you for being here for me tonight , you know ? and helping me not risk the best thing that 's happened to me in a long time . deacon : you know , on second thought , i think -- i think maybe you ought to catch that flight . quinn : you 've been a good friend to me tonight . deacon : glad i can still be of service . quinn : mm .

things get testy on the jet but eric says liam saving the world and good profits are not mutually opposite . deacon tells quinn that disaster is written all over this trip to monte carlo and he asks her not to go . she quips that the others will never know she is there so she is going and that is final . caroline comes downstairs and ridge tells her she looks beautiful . he has a feast for them to munch on starting with champagne . she says it has been a while since they have had any alone time . ridge agrees and says it was necessary for thomas to have time with douglas too . he does not tell her often enough that he loves her but does not want her to doubt it . she says she does not even remember who she was before she met ridge . he says he was lost too and she changed his life . they kiss . she senses when he pulls back and has to drag it out of him but he finally says he has been talking to brooke . they have made a lot of mistakes and he needs to be there for his kids . that includes douglas .
thomas : caroline 's dying ? no . no . bill : she 's very sick . thomas : how -- how do you know ? that does n't make sense . it just -- bill : i know because she told me , thomas . she did n't want to . but i got it out of her . i could just tell something was wrong . i wanted to help . she does n't want to be a burden to anyone . thomas : oh , my god . bill : it hit me the same way , like it ca n't be real . thomas : caroline ... steffy : okay , just keep me updated , rick . i need everything to come off without a hitch . okay , bye . caroline : spencer summit ? steffy : yeah , rick and maya are en route to monaco , so is zende and nicole . caroline : when is everyone else leaving ? 'cause i do n't want to hold you up . steffy : oh , no , you 're not . where 's douglas ? caroline : oh , he is playing patty cake with pam . or some version of it with ingredients that i have no idea about . steffy : yeah , that sounds about right . caroline : [ chuckles ] steffy : how are you doing ? everything with thomas , i feel for you . caroline : i mean , it could be a lot worse , that 's for sure . i -- i really do have a lot to be thankful for . i am a mommy to the most amazing little boy , and i have my two moms , and everyone 's healthy , and ... that should be enough . it would be enough if ... steffy : if you were n't still in love with my brother . quinn : you 're not going to monaco ? ridge : no , not the way things are with dad right now . i need to have a face- to - face with him , clear the air . quinn : me , too . i want to be here if he decides to come home . sheila : i can , uh ... i can take these to the dry cleaner for you , if you 'd like . i can drop them off today and pick them up tomorrow . eric : yeah , sure , that 'll be great . sheila : is there anything else i can do for you ? eric : how are you at turning back the clock ? sheila : [ scoffs ] i wish that i could . back to before things went so terribly wrong between us . eric : i was thinking more of my past with quinn , back when i was blissfully unaware of her deception . and my son 's . sheila : eric , would you really have not wanted to know ? eric : no . what 's the point of living a lie , really ? besides , everything would have come out in the end , anyway . sheila : i just wish i had n't been put in a position to have to tell you . eric : you really believe that , do n't you ? sheila : you do n't ? quinn : i know it is n't helping , but i keep texting him and i keep calling him , but he 's not picking up . i think he turned his phone off . i -- i just want him to talk to me . ridge : well , i wish he 'd talk to anyone but sheila . i do n't want him confiding in her . quinn : with as vulnerable as eric is right now , god only knows what she 's filling his head with . caroline : thomas and i would be together right now if i had n't pushed him away . steffy : you did n't push him away . you needed time to figure things out . caroline : but look what it cost me and my son . i came back to l.a. to fix things . i did n't care if sally was in the picture . steffy : you know how i feel about sally . i think she 's totally wrong for thomas . caroline : i mean , you and i see that , why does n't he ? steffy : maybe he does . maybe he 's just not ready to admit it . you 're everything sally is n't and can never be to thomas . we just have to make thomas realize that . the sooner , the better . thomas : caroline ... she -- she looks healthy , i -- how could she possibly be dying ? bill : it 's a rare auto - immune disease . thomas : how do you know ? i mean , how -- how could you possibly know ? it does n't make sense . bill : [ sighs ] do you think she has n't seen every specialist possible ? thomas : yeah . of course she has . bill : she was adamant that no one know . but given that you are douglas ' father ... i felt that you had the right to know . eric : i do n't think it really makes any difference now , sheila . i know . sheila : no , because i could n't stand the thought of them betraying you , eric . your own wife and son ? oh , my god , i 'm still so angry when i think of how they deceived you . eric : look , they said they were on the verge of telling me anyway . sheila : yeah , when ? they could have done that at any time . they could have done that after their first kiss , their first indiscretion . they could have come to you . or anytime after that ! but no , they continued with their affair . eric : there were kisses . but does that qualify as an affair ? sheila : i do n't know , i think an emotional affair can be just as powerful as a physical one . i do n't tell you these things because i 'm trying to hurt you . i just think it 's important that you see quinn and ridge for who they really are . eric : what about you , sheila ? who are you ? really . caroline : i should let you get back to it . i 'm sure you have a million things to do before you catch your flight . steffy : more like a million and one . but you and douglas take priority . caroline : you 're sweet . steffy : hey , family 's everything . children are everything . and my nephew should be able to count on his father . i know firsthand what it was like to not have both parents in the picture , and i do not want that for douglas . caroline : well , i 'm not giving up , and with you rooting for us , and uncle bill doing what he can , hopefully we can just get our little family back together . thomas : is -- is that what this was about ? is that what this was about , when you showed up to spectra trying to convince me to get back together with caroline ? is that what this is ? you knew she was dying ! and i get it -- i get it -- that you did n't want to betray her confidence , but why did you try to strong - arm me into leaving sally and spectra ? i know you wanted me to return to my family with caroline and douglas . is that what it is ? bill : you never should have throw in with those yahoos in the first place . then you would have time to be in new york with caroline and your son . you can never get that time back . now that caroline is dying . but you can take a look at your life , thomas , and realize that your only obligation is to your little boy and your son 's mother , a woman who is living on borrowed time . thomas : how much time does caroline have ? bill : i 'm not sure . but i am sure of this -- your only responsibility should be to caroline and douglas , making happy , lasting , loving memories that your son will have long after his mother is gone . you can do that for caroline and douglas , thomas . only you . sheila : you know who i am , eric . i 'm the woman i want to be for you . i -- i know that i 'm not worthy , but i have worked so hard at turning my life around ... eric : sheila , i applaud you for that , i really do . especially given the way things have gone since you came back . we accused you of shooting at quinn , we put you behind bars , even though it was deacon in the end . i mean , at that point , you could have said , `` to hell with the forresters , `` but you came to me . you came to me with the truth about what was going on with my wife and ridge . i 'm ... i 'm grateful . you took a bullet from my granddaughter , and you stand up for her . that speaks volumes about our friendship . look , i 'm sorry ... but too much has happened in our past for us to have anything like we had before . that 's just not gon na happen . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . sheila : yeah , i 'm -- i 'm just glad to hear you call me a friend . that means the world to me . look , i -- i can stay if you want me to , or i -- i can leave if you do n't . eric : i do n't know what i want . i just do n't know . ridge : listen , even if sheila were pulling the strings ... quinn : she is pulling the strings . she came here to get his medication , she has a key to the house . she 's the only person who knows where he is , and she is n't saying ! ridge : because dad told her not to . quinn : i should have followed her . ridge : if you found him , he would run . quinn : [ sighs ] so this horrible woman , his ex - wife , is now his confidant ? no . this is n't good , ridge ! this is n't good at all ! steffy : we 're pulling for you . even your uncle . caroline : what ? steffy : it 's just that bill 's used to getting what he wants , and ... i just do n't want him bullying my brother , that 's all . caroline : well , i do n't want that , either . i mean , thomas has to want to come back to us . i mean , otherwise , it does n't work . and i 'm sure my uncle understands that . does n't he ? bill : if you 're feeling guilty about all the missed opportunities with caroline and douglas , i do n't want to rub salt in the wound , but you should . they 're your family , and you abandoned them . thomas : that 's not true . bill : really ? you think that , uh , video - chatting with your son makes up for not being there ? thomas : damn it , bill ! i wanted a family with caroline ! i wanted that , but it was too soon for her . that 's why she left me for new york ! bill : wow , so you 're putting all this on caroline ? thomas : no ! i 'm not putting any of this on her ! she is dying ! this is n't helping ! the mother of my child is dying . the woman who i -- bill : still love ? thomas : yes ! i still love her ! bill : then you know what you have to do . you have to be there for caroline and douglas . you have to be the husband and father you should have been all along . thomas : [ sighs ] oh , man ... you 're right . you 're right . i have to be there for caroline and douglas . bill : you got sucked in by that redhead who played you like a violin . can i share something with you , thomas ? my greatest regret -- actually , there are two . i was n't there for my adult sons when they were growing up . i missed out on so much with them . i mean , sure , they -- they had their mothers . but soon ... way too soon , douglas is n't going to have his . so every day he has with her , every day he has with the three of you as a family is precious . caroline 's specialists are all in new york . she has to be there . and you have to be there for caroline and douglas . thomas : new york ? bill : as soon as possible . caroline : hey . bill : hey ! caroline : wanted to see me right away ? bill : yeah , come on in ! where 's douglas ? caroline : oh ! alison and amy are fighting over who 's gon na read him a story . bill : [ laughs ] caroline : so , what 's up ? bill : you asked me for some help , right ? to give tommy boy a much - needed push in your direction . caroline : so ... bill : so , i admit , it was a head - scratcher , even for me . you know , the strong- arm tactic did n't work . but then it occurred to me -- a way to reel thomas in without him having any idea what was happening . caroline : [ sighs ] i 'm almost afraid to ask . bill : i 'll spare you the details . all you need to know is this -- when you had back to new york , thomas forrester will be going with you . with you and douglas . and not just for a visit , to stay . i guarantee it . caroline : oh , my god , are you serious ? bill : you might say `` as a heart attack . `` give your uncle bill a hug . caroline : oh ! bill : [ chuckles ] caroline : [ sighs ] how 'd you do it ? bill : simple . i told him you were dying . bill : it 's caroline . she 's dying , thomas . sheila : look , at least you have time to figure out what and who you want without the pressure of your family . as long as steffy and liam , they do n't give up your secret and go to quinn and ridge with your whereabouts ... they would n't do that , would they ? ridge : quinn is starting to fall apart . if we do n't find dad soon ... steffy : where is she ? ridge : i told her to go upstairs , get some rest , but she 's probably texting him , waiting by the phone . she has n't slept since he disappeared . steffy : what about you ? ridge : i 'm okay . steffy : no , you 're not . you have n't eaten and slept in days . ridge : well , i will eat and sleep when i find my father . right now , it 's important to stay hydrated . [ exhales sharply ] steffy : i 've seen granddad . ridge : you 've seen him ? where ? at the office ? steffy : no , i -- i know where he 's staying . ridge : you found him ? steffy : liam found him . he tracked him down with his ... ridge : okay , when did this happen ? steffy : a few days ago . ridge : and you 're telling me now ? steffy : i -- granddad does n't want you to know where he is . ridge : well , i need to know where he is . is he with sheila ? steffy : yeah , he 's with sheila .
thomas is stunned and can not believe caroline is dying . it does not make sense . bill says she told no one else as she did not want to burden them . it is a rare auto immune disease and yes she has seen every specialist there is . he is only telling thomas because it affects his son , douglas . sheila remembers and feels pleased with herself that she was able to kiss eric . she takes his clothes to have cleaned . she asks if there is anything else she can do . he says no , unless she can turn back the clock – back to the time before he knew what quinn was up to . she betrayed him with ridge , his own son . sheila laments that she wishes she did not have to be the one to tell him . she is so mad that they had to betray him . he softens and says it was only a few kisses and he is not sure that amounts to an affair . sheila replies that an emotional affair is just as bad as a physical one . caroline confides to steffy that she would be with thomas right now if she had not pushed him away . she came back now even knowing that sally is in the picture . steffy says that is not a problem , she can overcome sally . caroline hopes so as she wants her family together .
[ thunder rolls ] bill : so it happened again . steffy : i do n't want to hear it . bill : that they were together . steffy : yeah . while i was at home with our baby . bill : of course you were . that 's what new mothers do . steffy : while new fathers what , hook up with their ex - girlfriends ? bill : [ sighs ] steffy : [ sighs ] if i got there a few minutes later ... bill : i know that whatever i say , it 'll be the wrong thing . steffy : [ sighs ] just do n't talk to me about love . bill : all right . steffy : it 's not what i want from you . bill : be that as it may , you have it . steffy : i 'm just sick of hoping and crying and not feeling good enough , wondering if i 'm ever gon na be replaced . bill : understood . so what will you trade it for ? amelia : kelly has settled right down after her bottle . steffy back ? liam : uh , no . amelia : is everything okay ? it 's just that you seem really worried about her . [ thunder crashes ] brooke : did liam say or do something hurtful ? hope : no . not to me . brooke : guess not . that 's not liam . well , so , then what ? i mean , you had such a triumphant day on the runway . or was it just sad that you and liam can work together but you ca n't be together ? hope : but we were . together . we got caught up and ... we kissed , pretty intensely . bill : [ laughs ] hope ! is n't that wonderful ? i mean , are n't you happy about that ? hope : i was . until steffy was there , and she saw everything . brooke : what did you do ? brooke : you were n't dressed ? hope : i 'd been changing . brooke : so what did you say ? hope : what could i ? steffy was devastated , and she was not about to listen to me , and now she seems to think that while she was recovering from childbirth liam and i were quitely having some sort of affair . brooke : what ? that 's crazy ! how could you carry on a secret affair ? you were working 14 hours a day . and liam was at home working , taking care of the baby . [ sighs ] new mothers , they 're just so awash with hormones , they 're riding this emotional roller coaster . hope : no , mom . hormones are n't to blame for breaking her heart . i am . liam : what -- what does that mean , `` location not available ? `` amelia : maybe hers is off , or just the tracking feature . look , i can stay till she gets back . liam : um , no , you should get home . thanks for watching kelly . you stay safe out there . amelia : yeah , it 's such strange weather we 're having this time of year . liam : yeah . almost feels like ... more than weather . [ thunder rolls ] amelia : good night , liam . liam : good night , amelia . [ cellphone chimes ] bill : someone 's trying to get ahold of you . steffy : liam wants to feel like a good man again . bill : and he thinks an apology will do that . steffy : did n't work for me . it 's not my job anymore . bill : does that mean you 're leaving him ? steffy : did i ever have him ? i thought so . i thought we were really something to each other . but what 's there to leave ? bill : in spite of my conflicted desires ... i never wanted him to hurt you . steffy : you said he would , bill . bill : yeah . steffy : i ca n't be with a man who holds me to standards he ca n't live up to himself . i mean , i 'm sick and tired of people that think they 're better than me , and they judge me . bill : you need a different future . steffy : yeah , i do . bill : is that why you 're here ? steffy : you lie . you 're vain . you can be cruel . you confuse love with leverage . but you 're consistent . there 's no guesswork with you . bill : i will lie to get what i want . it 's a way of telling the truth about how much i want it . you know what i want most , or you would n't be here . steffy : i do . but it wo n't come cheap . hope : steffy will never forgive me . i ca n't even think about the next time we 're gon na be in the same room together . brooke : hers are n't the only feelings that matter . how did you and liam come to be alone ? hope : well , the show had went so well -- i mean , better than i could have ever dreamed -- and we were just excited , reliving it all , and he was ... he was being so supportive , saying the sweetest things . brooke : well , he is a thoughtful man . maybe he had his own reasons for wanting to stay . hope : well , i misplaced my purse , and we were looking for it , and then he had found it and brought it to my dressing room , but i was getting changed into these clothes , and i guess i should have asked him to wait outside , but it did n't even occur to me . brooke : you are carrying his child . hope : yes . brooke : and he 's not a married man . hope : technically , no . brooke : so what exactly are you blaming yourself for ? bill : does liam know you 're here ? i expect him to come pounding on the door any minute . steffy : he 's not coming this time . bill : oh , i beg to differ . i know my dougy do - gooder son . he ca n't stand the thought of anybody thinking he 's done something wrong . he will talk you to death trying to convince how right he really was . steffy : no , he was too deliberate this time . when i walked in and i saw him hooking up with hope , the look on his face was like , `` well , you did it once , now it 's my turn . `` i do n't want to play those games . bill : you do n't want love . steffy : what good has it done me ? bill : maybe that remains to be seen . i 've already promised that i would protect you and your daughter , even your mother . steffy : i really hope you keep your promises . and if you do n't , you 're not gon na leave me high and dry . i 'm not gon na ask for any favors , and you do n't owe me any , either . bill : steffy , you know me . i wo n't be kept at arm 's length , and you would n't be here if you did n't need me . steffy : do n't ask me for what i ca n't give you , and we 'll be fine . bill : what can you give me ? steffy : yes . i can give you `` yes . `` bill : i get that you do n't want to be left high and dry , especially after what you experienced with liam , but if you marry me , that will never happen . steffy : i want my own . bill : your own what ? steffy : my own future . not some hand - me - down life the judge makes you give me . i stopped at the office before i got here . should be self - explanatory . brooke : [ sighs ] you 're too hard on yourself , honey . hope : well , you go through life thinking you 're one kind of person , and then you do something that tells you you 're not . brooke : [ chuckles ] okay , what am i missing ? i mean , why are n't you happy ? you were distraught that you lost the love of your life , and now he 's come back to you again . hope : did he ? because that 's not what he said . brooke : his actions speak louder than his words . hope : his words were `` i 'm so sorry , steffy . `` brooke : that 's because steffy saw the two of you in each other 's arms kissing and making out . hope : he ran after her , mom . brooke : okay , maybe he realized since he ca n't have a life with both of his children and their mothers that he would have to choose , and he chose a life and a family with you . [ thunder crashes ] bill : forrester creations , llc , transfer of interest . my forrester shares . that 's your price ? steffy : prove to me you 're serious . give me your 12.5 % of forrester . bill : why ? you already run the company . steffy : no forrester woman has ever held and kept a top leadership position in my family business . not even my grandmother . so with your shares and with my shares , it 'll be much harder to get ousted . bill : it 's too much , steffy . you 're asking too much . steffy : you always do . [ thunder rolling ] all right . bill : wait . what is this really about ? it 's not just the company . steffy : i need stability . for myself and for my daughter . you may walk away from your women , from your toys , but you 're not gon na walk away from your money . even if you get tired of me , you 're not gon na give that up . bill : i love you . you can take it . or leave it . but i need to know that i mean something to you . steffy : i 'll say this . i have more faith in you right now than anyone else on the planet . [ thunder rolls ] bill : justin , get in here . the door . justin : hey , steffy . i did n't know you were here . bill : we 're drawing up an agreement . i just sent it to you . i need three clean copies of this and my forrester stock certificates . [ thunder crashing ] hope : maybe ... brooke : maybe ... ? hope : maybe you 're right . brooke : yeah . hope : maybe tonight meant what you say it meant . brooke : liam does n't lack self - control . he could have easily said `` congratulations `` and just headed on home . hope : and i do know he loves me . brooke : the woman who 's never betrayed him , who he trusts completely . hope : yeah , well , i do n't want to assume too much . i -- i can only imagine losing him now , what that would do to steffy . brooke : do you think steffy cares about how you would feel if you were to lose him ? [ sighs ] look , steffy is ridge 's daughter , and she 's a talented , tough , remarkable person , and i do love her , but she is who she is . and i never thought that she and liam made a good pair . she 's much more like his father . steffy : hey , you 've reached steffy forrester . leave your name and number , and i 'll get back to you . [ beep ] liam : steffy . do n't do this . all right ? bad things happen when we run away from each other , you know that . okay ? and i already called eric 's . i know -- i know you 're not there , but ... listen , if you want -- if you want to hit me , hit me . if you want to scream at me , scream at me . but just do it at home . please ? because ... i do n't know , i got a bad feeling about this , and i 'm watching the clock and it 's -- [ beep ] message ended . mailbox is full . bill : will it be uncomfortable for you , living in the house with me where you grew up ? or will it sort of feel like coming home ? if you 're not comfortable , i 'll sell it , and you can pick out anything you want . justin : okay . i think i have everything . bill : show steffy the legal certification of my forrester holdings . now the transfer authorization . justin : i took the trouble to look up the current value of those shares . bill : their only value is their value to me . justin : this is a very large transaction , dollar bill . but it 'll be better to wait till the banks open tomorrow so one of your finance people -- bill : no need . steffy : it says `` transfer date , see attached . `` bill : give steffy the addendum i had you draw up . you can leave us , justin . when you come back , please bring your notary log . [ door opens , closes ] 12.5 % is yours when you become mrs . william spencer . you 've always known i had my price , too , steffy . [ thunder rolls ] is this really not what you expected ? steffy : it 's not that . bill : you still love liam . it 's not a deal - breaker . he will never make you happy . he made a choice tonight . and that choice was n't you . you came to me . is this really what you want ? steffy : yes . [ thunder rolling ] [ thunder crashes ] steffy : [ gasps ]
bill tells steffy that he told her she would eventually find liam and hope together . she says that is not what she wants from him . he says whatever she wants it is hers . she does not want his love . she is tired of hoping and begging and wondering if she will be replaced . he asks what would she trade for it . hope has to confess to brooke that she was happy one moment kissing liam and then steffy walked in and saw it all . she was in her robe just dressing . brooke says she is carrying liam 's baby so he 's seen her before and she did nothing wrong . hope says he did tell steffy he was sorry . but brooke says his actions speak louder than words . the nanny senses something might be wrong and says she can stay with kelly until either steffy or liam returns . he says no , he will be okay . he tries to call steffy but no answer . he leaves a message that he loves her . he screwed up and he is sorry , just come home . steffy laments to bill that she can not be with a man who can not uphold the standards he can not live up to himself . with bill she knows what to expect . bill says despite his conflicting desires he never wanted liam to hurt her . she tells bill that he lies , he is vain and he confuses love with leverage but at least he is consistent . she is not asking him any favors and she expects nothing . she will be fine . he tells her one more time that he knows she does not like being left high and dry but if she marries him that will never happen . she wants to control her own future . she says she knows what he wants but it wo n't come cheap .
flo : hope never would have married you if she knew the truth . i have to tell her . steffy : uh ... your daughter ... is , like , a brat sometimes . liam : excuse me . kelly is the perfect child . steffy : uh , no , phoebe . it 's like right when i have my guard down , when i have , like , the protective cloth off , it 's like , `` bam ! , `` right on me . liam : [ chuckles ] steffy : wait a minute . what are you -- what are you doing with phoebe 's adoption papers ? liam : um ... i 'm just curious . is that okay ? steffy : are you looking for something in particular ? maybe i can point you in the right direction . liam : i 'm trying to find out how flo came to be in l.a . if she gave birth in vegas . like -- like , does she know people here , or ... steffy : mm , like , besides wyatt ? liam : well , no . wyatt was just a coincidence . she did n't even know he lived here . steffy : i do n't think she planned on staying here . liam : what is flo 's relationship with thomas ? thomas : good morning , mrs . forrester . hope : good morning . sleep well ? thomas : oh , passably ... though something was missing . hope : mm . thomas : [ chuckles ] hope : hmm . thomas : how 'bout you ? hope : uh , it took a while to go to sleep , you know , with all the excitement . thomas : well , you should have knocked on my door . so , what was it -- good dreams , bad dreams ? hope : i do n't really remember . thomas : i do n't believe that . i - i 'm kidding , obviously . hope : well , uh , douglas is probably ... finished with his breakfast by now , so ... thomas : is n't brooke down there ? hope : yeah . [ chuckles nervously ] thomas : this -- this right here -- this is what i dreamed about . steffy : relationship ? with thomas and flo ? they hardly know each other outside of work . what gave you that idea ? liam : [ chuckles ] i mean , i kind of got the impression at the wedding that they don't ... care for each other . steffy : yeah , thomas rubs people the wrong way , but what does that have to do with phoebe 's adoption ? liam : i - i 'm just becoming very aware of how little i know about , like , how you met flo and the whole adoption process and ... would you mind walking me through it ? steffy : i do n't think there 's much i have n't told you , but , yeah , sure . thomas : i 'll tell you exactly what to do . you 're gon na keep your mouth shut . you 're gon na keep this secret until the day you die . [ knock on door ] ridge : door seems to be locked . flo : sorry . i did n't realize i did that . ridge : hey . that used to be my excuse . when i was in here , i was usually up to no good . uh , fabric order for hope for the future -- it 's been discontinued . flo : oh , wow . i literally just put that order in . ridge : so , what are you -- her right - hand person now ? flo : i 'll let her know when i see her when she comes in . ridge : she may not come in . she got married yesterday , as you know . you missed a heck of a ceremony . flo : i 'm really sorry i was late . ridge : you do what i do -- get there late , leave early -- if you do n't want to be there at all . flo : that was not my intention . ridge : some of the other logan women have some reservations about my son . flo : well , hope , uh -- she says that she 's known thomas for most of her life . ridge : it 's true . flo : maybe that 's why she ... sees a different version of him than the rest of us . hope : thomas , the door is open . anyone could walk in . thomas : we 're married . we 're not doing anything wrong . [ both chuckle ] okay , i get it . i get it . we 're in your mother 's house , and our son 's room is right down the hall . not the best setting for two newlyweds ... which is why i booked us a little staycation honeymoon tonight , just the two of us . in terms of treating sensitivity , ridge : i think the biggest problem is that you do n't know my son very well . flo : or maybe it 's just a chemistry thing . he has n't really liked me from the very beginning . ridge : i do n't know about that . i thinkhe 's just naturally supercilious . he gets it from me . just because he looks down on you does n't mean that he does n't like you . flo : you 're funny . ridge : no . i 'm not . i just do n't have a filter . can i ask you a favor ? try to find a little spot where you could have the possibility of being wrong about my son . flo : i have n't said anything bad about him . ridge : you just got one of those tell - all faces , i think . flo : you think i look like an open book ? ridge : i think we all do in the beginning , until we don't . thomas is a good guy . you should see him with his son . he 'd do anything for the little boy . he gets that from me , too . thomas : well , we could n't go to fiji or france , so i booked us a nice hotel room . hope : well , is douglas coming ? thomas : that would kind of defeat the purpose . hope : what is the purpose ? thomas : seriously , hope ? i mean [ chuckles ] we got married so quick , we did n't have time to have a real honeymoon . hope : well , did you ask ridge or my mom if they can take care of douglas tonight , or did you just assume that they would ? thomas : i 'll make arrangements for douglas . hope : [ sighs ] do n't you think this is something that you should have talked to your wife about first ? thomas : oh . so , i have to ask my wife 's permission to surprise her ? i do n't think so . hope : we 'll see . thomas : whoa . uh , what do you mean , `` we 'll see `` ? hope : well , right now i have to go to work . thomas : okay . okay . okay . a half - day is fine , but after that , you 're with me . it 'll be a lot of fun . we 'll get room service , a little champagne ... have a long , fun night . hope : okay . well , you , uh , i guess , try to figure out a plan for douglas ... and we 'll see . you can text me , okay ? bye . thomas : [ sighs ] steffy : if you 're worried that the adoption is n't air - tight , do n't be . carter insisted doing it by the book . liam : no , i kn -- i know that , but ... can we -- can we start from the beginning ? steffy : what beginning ? liam : like how you met flo . steffy : oh . you 'd have to ask my mom about that . liam : wait . taylor knows flo ? steffy : no . like , she knew someone who helped flo handle the adoption . liam : oh . so flo does know someone in l.a. who ? steffy : i could n't tell you .

[ chuckles ] yeah , it 's something sweet for married people . it 's a little trip they take right after their wedding , and they take it alone . douglas : are you and hope doing one ? thomas : [ chuckles ] yeah . you 're way ahead of me , are n't you ? yeah , we 're gon na do one . just a short one , though -- one night . and while we 're gone , how 'bout you go over to your aunt steffy 's -- hang out with her and your cousins ? does that sound good ? douglas : cool . and liam . thomas : yeah . yeah . he lives there , too . douglas : he 's nice . thomas : is he ? okay . well , why do n't you go , uh -- why do n't you go pick out some stuff you want to take over to steffy 's and i 'll be in in a minute to help you out ?

liam sits drinking coffee and keeps hearing the words flo said to thomas if hope knew the secret she would never have married him . she is going to tell her . steffy catches liam while he is still pondering about flo . he says it is strange if flo gave birth in vegas and now living in l. a. so shortly afterwards . thomas greets hope as mrs. forrester and takes steps toward her to kiss her but she pulls back . liam tells steffy that he realizes now just how little he knows about flo or the adoption process so he would like her to walk him through that . hope tells thomas that the door is unlocked and anybody could walk in . he says they are married and doing no wrong . but he gets it , they are in her mother 's house and douglas is just down the hall so they will take it slow for now . ridge catches a moment to see flo about some fabric and ends up talking about thomas . he knows some of the logan women do not like thomas but he is a good guy . he gets that from him . thomas tells hope that he did not have time to get them to paris for a honeymoon but he has some plans for tonight . she asks if douglas is going . he says that would defeat the purpose . she wants to know what purpose . he can not believe she said that . she asks if he has asked brooke and ridge or is thomas just assuming they will agree to take care of douglas . he quips that he did not know he had to ask his wife 's permission to give her this surprise . she slips out by saying she wants to be sure that douglas ate his breakfast and then she is going to work . he says okay but only half day , then he expects to spend the rest of the day and night with her .
jackie : you 're looking a little pale , stephanie . are you feeling all right ? stephanie : i thought you 'd sworn off younger men . jackie : i had . but this particular young man , this rather handsome doctor , well , he makes my heart go pitter - pat . what about you ? does he do anything for your heart ? stephanie : the ceremony is about to begin . brooke : oh , we should go in . stephanie : you ca n't be serious . jackie : as serious as a heart attack . stephanie : what 's going on here , mark ? [ jackie sighs ] jackie : mark . they 're on a first name basis . why would it surprise me , though ? i mean , after everything that mark has done for you . stephanie : what have you done , mark ? jackie : that 's the million dollar question . jackie : do not get your knickers in a twist . mark will tell you everything . in fact , he 's going to tell everyone exactly what you did . [ scene_break ] massimo : well , since stephanie got away with it , i think i should have a shot at it , too . nick : shot at what ? massimo : speaking . she said a few words . i think it only fair that the groom 's side have some equal time . nick : pop , pop . she spoke because she put this whole thing together last minute . you know , that 's why -- bridget : honey , if your father wants to say something -- nick : well , he 's gon na make a speech . and if he makes a speech , someone else will make a speech . and then , we 'll never get to this deal . it 'll never happen . massimo : no . i am not gon na make a speech . what i wan na do is say a few words from the heart . about my beloved son and his beautiful bride . so , if i could have everyone 's attention for just a moment , please . in honor of dominick and bridget , i would also like to pay tribute to another couple this evening . a couple that i have known to forge the relationship as strong as anything that i have ever seen . a couple whose marriage has faced the test of time , good and bad . and they 've come through it strongly . our hosts , eric and stephanie . [ applause ] [ scene_break ] stephanie : what did you tell them ? jackie : everything . he told me everything , stephanie . and you know , it was n't actually that hard to get out of him . the tequila helped . but , well , despite that severe lack in judgment , mark is actually a very decent man . i started to get just a little bit suspicious when he moved into century view towers . i mean , you 're a very good doctor , mark , but awfully young to have that kind of income , do n't you think ? so , i confirmed that $ 1 million had been wired into his bank account -- mark : jackie -- jackie : a bank owned by massimo . yes , stephanie . when i needed him the most , my husband came through for me . despite all of the poison that you 've fed him . so , after finding out about the payoff , it was just a matter of connecting the dots . and mark -- poor mark . he was so guilt ridden , he could n't wait to confess . you thought you could get away with it , did n't you ? you were wrong . i know the truth , stephanie . all of it . you did n't have that heart attack . and i have the proof . [ scene_break ] eric : massimo , thank you . that was very kind . massimo : eric , i know a good marriage when i see one . eric : actually , massimo is right . stephanie and i have been through some very difficult times in our marriage . and if anybody deserves credit for getting us through them , it 's not me . everything wonderful that happened in our marriage and in our family is because of stephanie . she supported me and encouraged me all those years while we were building our business . she sacrificed her own needs for those of her children and her grandchildren . there is n't a woman in the world who loves her family more than stephanie does . and when i think of how close we came to losing her , i -- i do n't know what i would have done . [ scene_break ] jackie : you are in a heap of trouble , stephanie . stephanie : based on what , jacqueline ? loose lips of someone who has obviously been drinking ? and what did you promise him ? anything so that you could get him to say what you wanted to hear ? let 's just set the record straight here , mark . i had a heart attack . the records and the tests prove that . so tell them . tell the two of them this . because no one is going to believe either of them over you and me . just tell the truth . mark : it 's too late . stephanie : what are you talking about ? we did n't do anything . jackie : for god 's sake , stephanie ! stephanie : i was sick . you treated me . tell them that . jackie : he already has . i know everything . stephanie : shut up , jackie ! jackie : i 've got it on tape . stephanie : you 're lying . mark : no . she 's not . everything i said tonight -- jackie : is right here . now , do you wan na hear the juicy bits ? or do you wan na hear the whole sordid confession ? brooke : what 's wrong , stephanie ? nothing to say ? oh , well . i 'd much rather hear it from mark , anyway . so go ahead . say it , doc . say that stephanie faked her heart attack . it was all a manipulation to get me out of her family once and for all . brooke logan . your worst nightmare . the bane of your existence . the woman that you have been trying to intimidate for years . the woman that you 've blamed for everything that went wrong in your family . for corrupting your husband . for corrupting your sons . and you did everything to try to prove it . videotaping , letters . everything to prove what an opportunist i was . the little slut from the valley who slept her way through beverly hills . well , it 's not true . it never was . and this time , you went too far . ridge , eric , thorne . even your sweet , little taylor . they will never forgive you for this , stephanie . it 's over . you are finished ! your reign of terror is finally over ! stephanie : you schmuck !

this is so awesome . even riding across the atlantic with bill spencer is exciting . by the way , you met with him . how did that go ? finalizing plans for the trip ? he 's not trying to throw a wrench in anything , is he ? bill : you asked for my help . i 'm helping . caroline : this is not helping . lying , telling the father of my child that i am dying is not helping ! bill : hey , you 're yelling . why are you yelling ? there 's no -- there 's no need to do that . do you want thomas back , or do n't you ? caroline : because he wants to be with me , not because he thinks i 'm sick ! bill : well , i agree with you . he should n't need a reason to want to be with his family . but since he does , i gave him one . caroline : this is wrong ! i am not going along with this ! sheila : i did n't come back to l.a. to disrupt your life , eric . eric : well , if it were n't for you , i 'd still be in the dark , would n't i ? ridge and quinn only confessed because their secret was about to come out . sheila : now , you do n't think they would have told you on their own ? eric : i do n't believe anything those two say anymore . steffy : granddad made me swear not to say anything , especially to you . ridge : steffy , we ca n't leave him alone with that woman . steffy : sheila is n't holding him hostage , dad . ridge : she is turning him against us ! steffy : no , you did that . you and quinn ! you caused all this . i 'm sorry , i -- i know you think you know what 's best for granddad , but you have no idea . ridge : she 's a dangerous criminal . you know her past . steffy : i shot her . sally : you told me not to worry , so i 'm not gon na worry . if bill seems to be coming around , then that 's a good thing . thomas : he 's just looking out for his family . sally : he 's not out to get us . thomas : no . no , it 's not like that . i thought it was , but i was wrong . sally : well , you were looking out for me and the company . thomas : that 's been my priority . sally : i ca n't tell you what it means to me . to feel so supported and encouraged . anything that comes at us , i know i can handle it because i have you by my side . thanks to you , i have never felt more alive . caroline : i did n't ask you to lie for me . bill : i told you i 'd do whatever i could to help . caroline : thomas and i have a child together . what if he says something to douglas or my mothers ? bill : he wo n't ! he wo n't ! i -- i told him you do n't want anyone to know , including him , and the only reason i told him is because he 's the father of your child . caroline : uncle bill ! bill : i was good . i mean , i was very convincing . caroline : you ca n't joke about this ! this is not something you joke about ! his grandmother died of cancer , and when he was little , his mother -- bill : easy . look , i did n't pull the cancer card , all right ? i went with an auto - immune disease . caroline : oh , my god ! no ! this is wrong ! i am not dying , and i 'm not gon na let thomas think that i am . bill : well , i 'm telling you , it had an impact on him . caroline : yeah , because he 's probably terrified ! bill : of losing you ! look , we need to get him away from sally . thomas , he understands he has to be with his son . now , if you 're worried he 's gon na leave sally out of pity , no ! he told me himself he loves you . so he 'll leave out of a sense of duty and responsibility . you love him , do n't you ? caroline : yes . bill : and you want him in your life ? caroline : yes . but not like this . i am not going to win thomas back this way . sheila : look , the truth matters to you , eric . my god , you are the most honest man i have ever known . eric : but if i ca n't trust my family , who can i trust ? ridge : what do you -- what do you mean , you shot sheila ? steffy : with grandma 's gun . ridge : oh , my god ... steffy : well , when i realized that granddad was with sheila , i -- i had liam track her down , and then quinn said she could be armed , so i brought the gun . i -- i was n't gon na use it , but ... ridge : it sounds like you did use it . what happened ? steffy : we were arguing . and then she went to reach for her purse , and i thought she was gon na grab her gun , and i reacted , and i ... but i only grazed her . ridge : so she 's okay ? steffy : yeah , and then the hotel security came , and ... ridge : the hotel ? so they 're at a hotel . steffy : yeah . yeah . but sheila , she did n't -- she did n't turn me in . she covered for me . ridge : covered for you ? you were protecting yourself ! steffy : but she was n't armed ! if she wanted me out to the way , she could have sent me to jail ! ridge : and , what , alienate granddad ? no , she would n't do that . she 's smarter than that . what she wants right now is to have you on her side . steffy : no . no , granddad wants to be alone because he feels that you betrayed him . ridge : i know , and i take full responsibility for that . that 's on me . that 's all on me . but i got to talk to him . and i got to talk to him sooner than later because the longer we wait , the more isolated he 's gon na be with sheila . i 'm not sure that you realize how dangerous that woman is . she will do anything to get what she wants . and if granddad gets hurt because of her , i 'm not gon na be able to live with that . and i do n't think you can do that , either . steffy : [ sighs ] ridge : let 's keep him safe . tell me where he is . tell me . steffy : okay . okay , i 'll tell you where to find him . sheila : i hope you know that me being here with you was purely a coincidence . i mean , ending up on the same floor in the same hotel in the middle of los angeles ... eric : even harder to believe that i did n't leave after seeing you . sheila : no , you did n't . and i really appreciate that . your kindness , your generosity , and giving me another -- another chance , trusting me , even if it 's just a little bit . [ sighs ] you know , i 'm -- i 'm really sorry about everything that you 're going through , eric . everything . quinn and ridge and what they did ... but i 'm -- i 'm happy to be here . i 'm happy to be here and help you work your way through this . and i -- i know you might not think i 'm sincere , and you might be questioning my motives ... but they are sincere . i just want to make sure that you 're all right . and if keeping your family away from you is what you need , then that 's what i 'm gon na do . ridge : you did the right thing . steffy : wait , dad , you ca n't just go over there now . ridge : do n't call him . he -- he ca n't know that i 'm coming . i got to get him away from that woman . steffy : what if he knows i told you where he is ? ridge : one day , he 'll thank you for it . steffy : [ sighs ] but i -- i gave him my word . i do n't want to lose him . ridge : you 're not gon na lose him , and i 'm not gon na lose him , either . i know he does n't want to talk to me , but he will . go to monte carlo . steffy : dad , i -- i ca n't go to monte carlo now . ridge : you have to go to monte carlo , you 're the c.e.o . of the company . steffy : what if people ask about you and granddad ? ridge : tell them i do n't look that great in a bathing suit anymore . steffy : [ sighs ] ridge : tell brooke and katie that everything 's gon na be fine . i 'm gon na handle it . okay ? steffy : okay . shirley : make sure you take plenty of pictures . [ gasps ] especially of the food ! i understand that the spread that they have on private planes is better than any buffet you 've ever been to . sally : i just ca n't believe that bill invited us to fly with him . i guess he 's given up on trying to get thomas and caroline back together . bill : you want thomas back . i 'm making that a reality . caroline : i did n't ask you to lie to him . bill : hey , caroline , do you think i got where i am by accident ? i 'm a guy who makes things happen , and sometimes to make things happen , you got to blur the lines a little bit , push the envelope , if you want to achieve your desired goal . i did what i thought was right . caroline : and i love you for that , but you went way too far . bill : i fudged the truth a little bit . caroline : you told i was dying ! you told thomas that he 's about to become a single father ! bill : he has to understand what 's at stake . that he needs you , caroline , that douglas needs his parents together , supporting each other . so i gave him a wake - up call , a jolt . so that he could come face to face with the reality of how important you are to him . and that douglas ' life and his life are better with you in it . caroline : i agree with you on all of that , but this is not right , and i 'm not going along with it . bill : so , if thomas tells you he 's gon na come back to you , you 're gon na turn him down ? caroline : i am not gon na let him think that i am dying if i am not ! i 'm not gon na do this ! [ knock on door ] bill : come in . thomas . we were just talking about you . caroline : there 's something that you need to know . i know that my uncle told you something , but i did n't know he was gon na do that . thomas : caroline , i am ... i am sorry . i am so sorry . eric : well , this is certainly not a place that i expected i would end up . so much has happened in such a short amount of time . sheila : you were happy , eric . eric : i was oblivious . my son and my wife are having an affair behind my back , they 're just carrying on . what were they saying about me every time i left the room , or every time i turned my back ? i even invited ridge to live with us practically under the same roof . i have to question everything ! every moment they were alone together , at the house or at the office . sheila : yes . you could . but it 's not what i would recommend . eric : what would you suggest ? sheila : you need to put them out of your mind . ridge : dad , i know you 're in there -- open up , let me in . shirley : just what gives him the right to meddle in your life ? sally : bill is caroline 's uncle . shirley : so ? sally : so ... she has a son with thomas . caroline wants them to be a family again . shirley : well , that 's tough cookies . he 's with you now ! sally : yes , but thomas is committed to his son , and i love that about thomas . i would never do anything to get in between them . shirley : no , you would n't . [ sighs ] this plane trip , the spencer summit ... sally girl , you need to have a good time , but ... [ sighs ] keep your eyes open and your guard up . sally : i will , but i am not worried about thomas . he and caroline are parents , they love their son , but that is their only connection . she will never be a part of his life again . caroline : i do n't even -- i do n't know what to say right now because i do n't want you to worry about me or douglas . thomas : no , caroline , look -- i -- i can help . caroline : no , i do n't need help ! thomas : i 'm -- i 'm not going to let you go through this alone ! that 's not gon na happen . caroline : no , no , 'cause you have your whole life . you have monaco and you have this fashion show -- thomas : no , that does n't matter , that does n't matter . i have to think about my son . what -- what ... what are we gon na do without you ? what is douglas going to do without the most important person in his life ? caroline : you 're just as important . bill : a little boy needs his dad . thomas : hey , look , i -- i have wanted to be there , and i am going to be there for you and douglas , and i am going to spend as much time with you as i can while you are still here . i want you to teach me everything . caroline : i know that douglas would love that . bill : proud of you , thomas . the man wants to step up , be the kind of father that little boy needs . caroline : douglas misses you . thomas : i 've missed him . i 've missed both of you . i -- and all of that , all of it is going to change . bill : clearly , caroline is overcome with emotion . but i think i can speak for her in saying that she does n't want you to do any of this out of pity , thomas . thomas : i 'm not doing this out of pity . this is what should have happened from the beginning . it should n't have taken a tragedy like this to bring us together . i -- caroline , when i left new york , i was heartbroken and i was miserable , and i buried myself in work . but i could n't stop thinking about you and douglas and ... god , i am going to be there now . i am going to be there for our family . family comes first . caroline , i -- i am sorry .
ridge demands that steffy tell him where eric is with sheila . she is dangerous . she 's a criminal with a past . steffy says he will flee if she tells . eric tells sheila that he misses his son but he is not ready to see any of the family yet . and he will not believe anything they say as they only confessed when they were caught . caroline is livid that bill told thomas that she was dying . she rants that she will not go along with this . sally catches thomas at a bad time while he is thinking about the possibility of caroline dying . sally wants to flash a few new sunglasses at him that she can wear in monaco . she says she is all packed and saul will not let her out of his sight . she wonders if he could stow away in the cargo hole . she laments that bill seems to be coming around and that is a good thing . thomas says yes , he is not out to get them after all . and sally will always be his priority . she says no matter what happens she can handle it with him at her side . caroline tells bill that she did not ask him to lie for her . bill says it will be okay as he told thomas that she did not want anyone to know . thomas understands that he needs to be with his son , that is his responsibility . she says she does want thomas in her life but she does not want to win him back this way .
[ thunder crashing ] steffy : i 'm starting over . bill : i can make things so easy for you . steffy : what can you make easy ? bill : all the practical things for you and your daughter . i can come with you when you talk to liam . steffy : no . no . i need to do that alone . bill : well , you 're quite a bit richer than you were when you walked in here tonight . so am i. i 'll get justin back here . bill : can you stay ? will you come home with me tonight ? steffy : bill ... bill : o - of course . i 'm sorry . of course . of course . the baby . soon , it will be her home . and yours . steffy : about that ... bill : it can be a really quiet ceremony . i do n't need to announce to the world the day you become my wife . [ ringing ] mailbox is full . [ doorbell rings ] liam : steffy . brooke : hi . i hope i did n't wake up the baby . liam : no . no , you 're good . brooke : so , uh , is steffy here ? liam : uh , no . not at the moment . i thought the rain stopped . brooke : yeah , well , it should be letting up . such strange weather this time of year . it 's not l.a . weather , that 's for sure . liam : yeah , sometimes it feels like the earth has gone haywire . nothing that used to be true is anymore . so ... brooke : hope told me what happened . liam : i do n't know what to say , i ... i 'm ashamed . brooke : that is what i was afraid of . do n't be . [ thunder rolling ] steffy : oh , my god ! how could you ? [ door opens ] ridge : hey . you 're not my wife . brooke : uh , no . sorry . ridge : okay , let 's not do that . um , stay . it 's been a long day for everybody . successful day for you . how does it feel ? hope : i - i i ca n't even describe . ridge : right . hey , brooke ! brooke ! hope : uh , mom went to see liam . ridge : why ? hope : because i could n't stop her . hope : something happened . ridge : something happened ? what ? steffy okay ? hope : she walked in on something that must have been really painful ... ridge : she walked in on what ? hope : liam ! with me . ridge : with you ? brooke : what did steffy say ? liam : plenty in the moment , but , um ... she has n't been home , and i do n't know where she is . brooke : well , that 's not a good way to resolve things . liam : well , if she needs time , then i understand that . liam : what about the baby ? liam : nobody 's neglecting the baby , okay ? the fault is with me , not steffy . brooke : [ sighs ] why do you think this keeps happening , liam ? liam : nothing keeps happening . nothing keeps happening . brooke : steffy with bill , you with hope . liam : well , hope and i didn't ... hey , brooke , um , sorry . just -- steffy could be home any minute now , and when she is , i think i 'd like a moment alone with my ... brooke : that 's right . she 's not your wife . you are freer than you think . bill : he needs our ids . justin : you know it 's illegal for me to notarize these documents .... bill : do n't pull this bs , justin . justin : i could be fined , i could be jailed . i 'm required to see you sign these documents . bill : we wanted a little privacy . you want to see us sign them again ? justin : you have refused to part with your piece of forrester creations for how many years ? bill : i do n't need them anymore . justin : you 're aware that these shares wo n't becomes yours until you become ms . spencer . bill : the negotiations are over , justin . what 's the problem ? justin : i am legally required to ascertain that the signers understand what these documents commit them to . and there was no coercion . you sure you want to do this ? steffy : can we please just get on with it , justin ? ridge : yeah , you got to explain something to me . what was that ? what were you thinking ? hope : it was n't a matter of thinking , it just happened . ridge : oh , it just happened . that 's not an excuse . hope : well , it was an excuse enough when steffy slept with her father - in - law for you . ridge : bill took advantage of her ! hope : okay , you know what , this is not a good topic for us . ridge : ah , okay , well , then maybe you should stop making out with my daughter 's husband ... hope : [ scoffs ] ridge : ... and then we do n't have to talk about any of this . hope : they are n't married . ridge : she is the mother of his child . hope : and so am i ! ridge : i 'm aware of that ! man , i 'm aware of that . hope : look , i do n't want to fight with you . ridge : i 'm sorry . i should n't raise my voice with you . hope : i 'm sorry , too . ridge : this breaks my heart . i know you 're a good person . i know that . liam 's a good person . and steffy , she 's fought so hard to get her life back . after all the injustice , after everything that bill did to her . and this -- this is what you do ? you and liam do that to my little girl ? brooke : you have a child with steffy , and you have another one with hope , but you 're not married to either one of them , and those are the relevant facts . liam : yeah , that makes me cringe . brooke : mm . you seem to think that you 're being disgraceful , and that 's your prerogative . but i 've been disgraceful for a long , long time , and it 's been my traveling companion , and i have to tell you , your situation does n't rate . sure , you feel bad for steffy , but the fact is you are free to make a decision about how you want to live your life . liam : you know something , maybe i do n't want to be free to decide . brooke : yeah , i know that about you . you 're kind of like me in that regard . when i love , i want to give everything , and what is everything ... but marriage ? liam : but , brooke , i mean ... for months , i could n't stand the sight of steffy because she betrayed the vows that we made to each other , and now ... i 've betrayed her . brooke : liam , is it really that similar ? sometimes in life , we draw a line that we do n't want to cross over , but we do . we step over it anyway . and you did that with hope . but steffy chose to do that with her husband 's father . [ thunder rolls ] justin : last chance to change your mind . bill : oh , for god 's sake . ever since this niece of his came to town , he 's like a little old lady . justin : she needs to be cautious , look at all the angles . bill : liam cheated on her . steffy walked in on them making out . if she 'd come in a couple of minutes later , they 'd be actually doing the deed , all right ? there 's your angle . justin : eye for an eye . steffy : what 's the problem , justin ? better with candles , pillows , and some lipstick ? i 'm fully aware of what i 'm doing , no one 's forcing me . bill : thank you , justin . justin : you guys have a happy , long whatever the hell this is . steffy : what does he have against me ? bill : oh , do n't worry about him , he 's just a little overly sensitive . you were n't nice enough to him . mostly , he does n't like when i spend my money . steffy : you have n't spent it yet . bill : all we need now is a wedding . steffy : there will be time for that , bill . bill : what concerns me is tonight . what you 're going to face when you get home . steffy : i came to you . i would n't walk into this if i was n't prepared for the consequences . you and i may not trust each other . bill : yet . steffy : but you can trust me to handle myself . ridge : steffy made one mistake . one . and she 's worked this whole time to try to get liam back , and this is what he does ? hope : it -- ridge : he betrays her like that ? hope : it 's not like that . ridge : then how is it ? hope : liam and i love each other ! ridge : really ? you 're that naive ? come on , do n't listen to what he says . look at what he does . he ca n't help himself . he has to love the one he 's with , and right now , he 's at steffy 's house trying to get her back . and when that does n't work , he 's gon na come back here with his tail between his legs . and what are you gon na say ? liam : steffy did n't choose my dad . brooke : oh . so you feel the same way that ridge does ? liam : i do n't know . i do n't want to talk about this , brooke . is hope okay ? brooke : yeah , hope 's okay . she 's better than okay , just like every other time you let her down . you gon na do it again ? [ sighs ] sorry . i -- i did n't mean to be so unkind . i know that 's something hope would never do . liam : no , i get it . i mean , now that i 'm a parent myself , i finally understand what it 's like to feel that ... protective of someone . brooke : i feel protective of you , too . i better go before the roads get worse . [ chuckles ] she 's so precious . liam : she 's everything . not a day in my life have i ever been as perfect as she is . brooke : liam , stop beating up on yourself for the crime of wanting what you want . steffy and bill would never do that . steffy : i need to get home to my child . bill : do n't forget your copy . can i drive you ? steffy : no . no , i have my car . bill : if i 'm with you , i can take the brunt of liam 's displeasure . steffy : i 'll be fine . it 'll be almost anticlimactic . bill : there 's finally a clear path ahead for us . steffy : i 'm better at being decisive than waiting for somebody else to . bill : another way we 're alike . i love you . i see myself in you . i do n't have to hide from the things that other people find repellent . steffy : yeah , that already feels familiar . bill : can you do something for me ? steffy : something more ? bill : if you care about me , would you let me know ? i understand that love is the enemy to you right now , and i do n't blame you . i 'm not asking for that . i am a transactional guy . nobody likes to buy and sell things more than i do . but it would be good if this did n't feel so much like that . steffy : bill , of course i care about you . you 've been a rock for me . and you never made me feel not good enough . bill : i wo n't sleep tonight thinking of all the new ways i can spoil you . every damn day i will be thankful that you 're my wife . [ thunder crashes ] steffy : good night . [ door opens ] bill : ahh ! my man . come have a drink with your boy . justin : hope you got what you wanted . bill : mmm . you know i did . justin : i hope so . you paid a very heavy price . bill : eh , she could have bargained for more . hell , if she fancied you , you 'd be wrapped in a big red bow right now . justin : i want to be happy for you , dollar bill , but , uh ... bill : tonight is the best thing that ever happened to me . hope : what if the best thing that ever happened to you turned out to be the worst thing that ever happened to your firstborn son ? bill : liam always has a backup plan . it 's the only kind of plan he ever makes . [ doors closes ] liam : oh , thank god . steffy : she still asleep ? liam : yeah . you know how she just lies there and stares up at the ceiling . but , uh , we only have two bottles left , so ... steffy : yeah , i 'll take care of it . [ sighs ] liam : steffy , i was really worried . steffy : no reason to be , as you can see . liam : hey , please hear this . i 'm so sorry . steffy : i 'm sure you are , but , you know , it 's late and i 'm really tired . liam : steffy , do n't -- do n't shut me out , okay ? i get it . i understand . how you felt all the months , i get it . steffy : no , you really don't . liam : knowing that i hurt you deeply and that i ca n't take it back ? wanting to ask for forgiveness but doubting i deserve it ? yeah , i get it . did you get my messages ? steffy : i do n't know , probably . liam : i did n't know where you were , and you were n't answering your phone , so ... steffy : you were n't getting the hint , so ... liam : okay , can you stop ? steffy : [ sighs ] liam : where were you ? steffy : [ sighs ] where do you think i was , liam ? what do you always accuse me of ? running to bill , hooking up with him behind your back ... liam : i 'm not -- i 'm not checking up on you , steffy . steffy : ... when i did everything i possibly could to get this house . i did everything i possibly could to get bill out of here . liam : i know that now . steffy : what do you think was going through my mind when you did n't come home after the fashion show ? when i was taking care of our little girl . when you were hooking up with hope . [ sighs ] what kind of apology are you gon na make to our little girl , knowing that you put us in such a terrible position ? waiting for you to just grow up and decide what you really want . liam : you 're right . steffy : i do n't need you to tell me that . liam : steffy . steff , hey , i ca n't defend everything i 've done , or left undone . but everything i thought was true turned out not to be , and i was the last to know , okay ? steffy : oh , no . no . i was . you know who i thought was truer than true , liam ? you . i thought you were such a good man . but you 're no better than your father . you just have a better act . and it 's so good that you do n't even realize it . i did n't even realize it . i really thought that we were meant to be with each other . till i found you hooking up with hope in the dressing room . then the light inside of me turned off . liam : you didn't ... steffy : oh , yes . i did .
liam keeps getting signals that steffy 's line is full so he can not talk to her . brooke shows up . she tells him that hope told her what happened . he says he is ashamed of it but she tells him not to be . ridge comes home and says he knows it was a trying day for all of them . then he looks for brooke and hope tells him she went to liam 's ; she could not stop her . ridge is shocked when hope tells him that steffy caught her and liam together .really together . justin scolds bill that he should have seen them sign the papers to keep it legal . his life could be on the line for this . bill says they did sign so there is no problem , get on with it . he does not need the shares anymore so now they are steffy 's . justin says yes when she becomes mrs. bill spencer . ridge tells hope that things do n't just happen ; that is just an excuse for making out with his daughter 's husband . he knows she is a good person so he hates that she is caught in the middle but he can not let her do this to his little girl . liam politely tells brooke that steffy could be home any minute and he 'd really like to be alone to talk to her . brooke tries to say again they did nothing wrong . everyone steps over that line they say they will not cross over . but now he truly is a free man . he is not sure he wants to be a free man . he hated steffy for a while when she initially betrayed him and now he is doing the same thing . he wants to be sure that hope is okay . brooke says more than okay unless he is going to let her down again . she apologizes for being unkind . he says he understands now that he is a parent , the protective mode she goes into .
[ line clicks ] sorry about the hold . we 're short - staffed today . liam : uh , yeah . hey . no problem . um ... i was the guy asking if flo fulton gave birth in your hospital on -- so , i checked with my boss , and , like i said , i ca n't give out that kind of patient information . liam : o - okay . um ... could you -- could you just pass along the name and number i gave you to dr . cortez and ask him or her to call me back ? that much , i can do . liam : awesome . th - thank you so much . i - i appreciate it . [ sighs ] steffy : someone wants their daddy . liam : hey . there she is . steffy : there 's daddy ! liam : you come here ! steffy : ready ? liam : you come here ! [ gasps ] oh , flying baby ! ohh ! you have a good nap ? flo : i understand that you care about douglas . hope : more than care . i mean , that little boy has touched my heart in a way that i did n't think was possible anymore . he 's so open and vulnerable . but he 's also confused . and he 's trying to be this big boy in the face of this loss that he ca n't even begin to understand . and so i n -- i want to -- i - i mean , i have to help him and take care of him . flo : i get that . i -- i - i -- i really do . i just ... [ gasps ] i just worry that you 're not really examining all these choices that you 're making , and how they 're gon na affect you for the rest of your life . leaving liam and marrying thomas ? hope : liam and i had to be over so that he could be a father to those girls , and so that i could care for and protect douglas . douglas : beth is alive . beth is alive . thomas : [ sighs ] how you doing , sport ? douglas : okay . thomas : [ sighs ] listen , i , uh ... i got a little heated before , okay , and i 'm sorry about that . douglas : you got mad at me . thomas : yeah . well ... [ snorts quietly ] i did n't mean to come down on you so hard . but it 's just , you ca n't say what you think you heard , okay ? not to anyone . douglas : baby beth is alive . thomas : you ca n't say that . those words can never come out of your mouth again . liam : it 's kind of amazing if you think about it . you know , all the little pieces that had to fit perfectly into place for phoebe to come into our lives . steffy : yeah . it just proves that she was meant to be here . liam : yeah , like ... your mom had a colleague , who - whoever that is , who just happened to know a woman who could n't keep her baby at the same time that you were looking to adopt . and that woman turned out to be flo . steffy : mm - hmm . who turned out to be a logan . liam : yes . it 's fascinating how things work out , is n't it ? steffy : yeah . now you and i have this beautiful little girl . and flo has her family . if only beth had lived . liam : yeah . yeah . but ... she did n't , and ... nothing 's been the same since . hope : i - i 'm not available to do publicity right now , but thomas forrester ...

'cause that -- that could hurt hope . and it could hurt your aunt steffy , too . you do n't want that , do you ? i did n't think so . good . so , you ca n't repeat that . you ca n't say anything about -- about phoebe or beth or babies . okay ? not to anyone . okay . i 'll take that as a yes . now , go back to your room , and you finish packing , okay ? and no more pouting , all right ? be a big boy . thomas : [ sighs ] hey . how 's it going ? hope : fine . you ? thomas : well , i am counting on getting a whole lot better . you know , once i , uh , have my brand - new wife all to myself . you excited about tonight ? hope : thomas , i -- thomas : i 'm gon na go drop douglas off at steffy 's , and , uh , then i 'll be right over there to forrester to pick you up . hope : well , actually , why do n't i just call a car and i 'll meet you there ? it 'll give me an excuse to see phoebe . thomas : okay . all right . sounds good . all right . bye . hope : heh . it was thomas . he 's planning a little staycation since , you know , we have n't been able to go on a honeymoon . flo : are you ready for that ? okay . your silence kind of speaks volumes . hope : [ sighs ] he 's just trying to do something sweet . thomas is my husband . he 's , you know , whisking me away . flo : because he wants to be with you . but ... kind of seems like the feeling is n't mutual . uh , just please , hope ... just be careful with him , okay ? hope : i 've known thomas all my life . i mean , he 's not gon na hurt me , if that 's what you 're implying . flo : he 's just a really intense guy . hope : you do n't have to worry about me , okay ? i promise . i need to get going . flo : all right . hope : bye . flo : bye . thomas : hey , douglas , you almost ready ? hey , what 's with the face ? you do n't look happy or excited . what do you always say about your aunt steffy ? douglas : she 's the coolest . thomas : right . and you love your cousins , too . okay ? so -- so come on . lose the mug . let 's see a smile . douglas : i like liam . thomas : where 'd that come from ? douglas : liam 's nice to me . thomas : okay . all right . look , it 's , uh ... it 's a short trip , all right ? so you 're gon na be a good boy while i 'm gone , all right , and listen to your aunt steffy . and remember what i told you -- you ca n't say anything about baby beth . liam : [ laughs ] did you -- did you see that ? she totally got my joke . steffy : i think that was gas . liam : it w -- it was not gas . she put -- you made all the connections , did n't you ? she heard the punch line , she knew it was funny , and she laughed . steffy : wow . she did all that ? huh . liam : yeah . i 'm telling you , we have a couple of budding geniuses on our hands here . steffy : that , i agree with . liam : i know . right ? okay . you hold onto that . steffy : is everything all right ? liam : yeah . no , it 's -- i 'm good . i 'm just , uh , waiting on a call . so ... wait . before my little stand - up routine , you said that -- that douglas is staying over ? steffy : uh , yeah . thomas and hope did n't get to have a honeymoon , so he wanted to take her away , have a night alone with his bride . liam : predator . steffy : liam , stop ! liam : what ? steffy : hope and thomas are married , okay ? she made that choice . you just need to be supportive . like , get over it . [ knock on door ] liam : i do not need to be supportive , do i ? no , i don't . hope : hi . liam : hi . steffy : hi . come on in . hope : hi ! oh , i was hoping phoebe would be awake . and look at her . [ phoebe exclaims ] [ laughs ] yeah ! all happy with her daddy . zoe : i wish you would n't ghost me . i 've been trying to reach out . flo : no , i knew why you were calling . i just did n't want to hear it again . zoe : you were the one so determined to go to brooke 's and tell hope the truth and stop the wedding . at least you texted saying that you did n't do it , but ... tell me what happened . flo : i did n't get there in time . and now my cousin is married to a maniac who will stop at nothing , including murder , to get what he wants . i hate feeling this way . i hate feeling so trapped and helpless . [ sighs ] i used to be a good person , you know ? not someone who just lied every single time she opened her mouth . zoe : you 're still a good person , flo . a - and so am i . we just got caught up in this awful situation . flo : yeah , thanks to your dad . i wish i 'd never met reese buckingham . zoe : well , have you spoken to hope since the wedding ? flo : yeah . she was just here . she just left . she went to go to steffy 's to meet thomas and drop off douglas at some sleepover . apparently thomas is taking her to a hotel room for some in - town honeymoon tonight . the idea of hope alone with that creep , isolated somewhere , just makes me really nervous . zoe : well , thomas finally has what he 's been wanting . maybe he 'll chill out . if he has nothing in his way to get to hope , then he 'll have no reason to keep going off or threatening us . maybe , if we all just [ sighs ] come to terms with this new reality , life can kind of go back to being normal . flo : that is not gon na happen . i can guarantee that . zoe : what are you talking about ? flo : well , at the reception , when thomas saw that i was there , he pulled me aside -- i mean , he like literally pulled me aside , and he got super aggressive , and he told me to get out of there , and that the marriage was a done deal , and there 's nothing i could do about it . and that made me mad , of course , and so i started taunting him a little bit about how phoebe went up to hope during the ceremony and called her mama , and then he got really upset , and he started yelling at me and told me to shut up . and i told him that i was done with all of this . and , zoe , he -- he got , like -- he got ... really scary . it 's like -- it 's like he turned and he got really dark and ... he told me that i was gon na keep this secret until the day that i die . thomas forrester threatened my life , and he meant it . he is dangerous , zoe . i mean , you know what happened to emma . and now he is hope 's husband . hope : how is it that she gets more beautiful every time i see her ? liam : yeah . hope : hi . [ giggles ] oh , my gosh . i think i almost see a little bit of you in there . i do n't know how . liam : what ? steffy : right ? i noticed that , too . hope : yeah . liam : okay . uh , do you want to hold her ? hope : oh , absolutely . liam : yeah ? hope : hi ! liam : oh , there you go . hope : oh ! yeah ! look at that smile . steffy : yeah . someone 's happy to see you . hope : and i am happy to see her . [ knock on door ] & thomas : hey , guys . steffy : hi ! douglas : hi , aunt steffy . hi , liam . steffy : hi , douglas ! liam : hey , dude . thomas : hey . oh , hi there . hey , let me help . hope : oh . thomas : hi . oh , look at you . you 're getting so big . you 're getting so big , are n't you ? hope : oh , are you excited for your sleepover ? steffy : we 're so happy to have you . liam : i know . kelly and phoebe are gon na be psyched that you 're spending the night . douglas : can we go to the beach ? liam : can we go to the beach ? of course we can go to the beach . douglas : where 's kelly ? steffy : uh , she 's napping . but she 'll be up soon . thomas : oh , here . steffy : hi ! come to mama . come to mama . ohh ! oh , she is getting so big . thomas : hey . how 's it going ? liam : [ sighs ] dude , why -- why are you asking me that ? thomas : i just know it must have been hard for you . you know , sitting there watching me and hope get married . she looked beautiful , did n't she ? liam : i swear to god , if you hurt hope ... thomas : just the opposite . actually , i got a night planned that 'll hopefully leave her breathless . liam : you 're disgusting . douglas : was phoebe 's name always phoebe ? steffy : well , i named phoebe after i - i adopted her , right when she was born . hope : why do you ask ? humira patients , you inspire us . zoe : go back . you said phoebe called hope mama ? flo : [ sighs ] okay , so , thomas had said his vows , and hope was about to say hers when , all of a sudden , everyone heard , `` mama ! mama ! mama ! `` and phoebe had managed to crawl up to hope , and was pulling on her dress while calling her mama . zoe : oh , my god . i mean , that 's crazy . flo : is it , though ? i mean , really ? i - it 's that crazy to think that a -- a child would recognize her own mother ? zoe : it had to be a fluke . i mean , how could she ? flo : nature . that 's what we 're dealing with here , zoe . and it 's bigger than we are . you know ... hope might find out that phoebe is really beth without any input from us . hope : [ chuckles ] you 're really fascinated by little baby phoebe today , are n't you , douglas ? liam : see ? no one is immune to her charm . thomas : hey , uh , you know , she looks kind of tired . how long 's she been up ? steffy : [ inhales sharply ] actually , a while . yeah . thomas : well , maybe we should put her back down . i mean , you do n't want her to be over stimulated before the sleepover even starts . steffy : yeah , that 's a good idea . you could help me . thomas : uh -- steffy : come on . it 'll be good for you . let 's go ! hope : here . come hang with me . all right . let 's get your toys out , here . what do we got here ? this guy ? douglas : yeah , this guy . hope : keep playing , okay ? [ sighs ] liam : you really love phoebe , do n't you ? hope : i do . there 's just something about her . she gets to me . it 's been that way since the first moment i laid eyes on her . liam : yeah , me too . she 's something special . hope : mm . liam : so , you ... actually did it . you actually married that guy . [ huffs ] that 's ... hope : you know why . liam : i do n't care . i do n't want to picture you alone with him tonight , or any other night . hope : liam -- liam : you know what ? no . wait , wait . stop . stop . thomas is not a good person , okay ? good people do not use their children as a battering ram against grieving mothers . hope : liam , i know what i 'm doing . liam : oh , do you ? really ? hope : you know what ? i ca n't keep being drawn to steffy 's child the way that i have been . that 's why i married thomas -- so i could focus on douglas and be the mother that i need to be to him . the mother that i thought i was going to be to beth . because that 's the only thing i can do , because our daughter , our beth , is gone . douglas : no , she isn't . hope : what did you say ? douglas : baby beth is n't gone . hope : douglas , sweetie , what are you saying ? douglas : she 's alive . baby beth is alive . . . .
liam calls again to the same hospital where he thought flo might have given birth . the lady says she checked with her boss and can still tell him that she can not give out that kind of information . flo talks to hope and says she can not help but think hope is making decisions that is not only going to affect her life but those around her like liam , thomas and others for the rest of their lives . flo says she just wants hope to be happy and is worried about her . it 's not fair . hope says she does not even know what that means anymore . douglas has a wonderful loving father but he needs a mother too . thomas finds douglas and says he was a little heated with him earlier and he did not mean to be . but it is very important that douglas does not repeat what he thought he heard his dad say about beth being alive . he must never say those words again . it would hurt hope and aunt steffy too . so he wants him to scoot and pack his bag to spend the night with steffy and the girls . flo continues to worry about thomas when hope gets a phone call from him . he is anxious for her to come home to they can start their staycation and then he will drop off douglas and be home . she suggests they just meet at steffy 's and she can see phoebe too so he agrees with that . douglas has a sad sack face and thomas tells him it is only over night and even though he likes liam he wo n't see much of him so just obey steffy . and remember he is not to say a word about baby beth . liam and steffy get on the subject again of flo and how things have a way of working out . steffy mentions that thomas is going to drop douglas off so that thomas and hope can slip away overnight . liam calls him a predator . steffy says come on , they are married now so liam needs to be supportive .
brooke : i 'm not sure if you can replace me as spokesmodel for brooke 's bedroom , but there 's only one way to find out . donna : i have to try out ? brooke : i have to see if you can model . donna : i have no interest in modeling . besides , brooke , you are brooke 's bedroom . to even consider giving up your role as model spokesperson . the line is you , brooke . what you and ridge created together -- what you 'd still be sharing if nick had n't interfered ! brooke : oh , careful , donna , that 's my husband you 're talking about . donna : but to make you walk away from something you love as much as the bedroom line is just -- brooke : he did n't make me do anything . after everything that happened with ridge and stephanie , i can understand why nick would have some issues where ridge is concerned . donna : maybe you 're the one with the issues . never mind . brooke : if you have something to say , just say it . donna : you 're still in love with ridge . brooke : even nick realizes that my feelings for ridge wo n't just vanish . donna : you 're staying away from ridge because you know the position you 'll find yourself in with him if you do n't . brooke : oh , my god , enough already ! donna : you wanted to hear it . brooke : no , you 're wrong . i understand that you 're concerned about me . but ridge is my past . and nick is my future . donna : can nick make you as happy as ridge has ? brooke , i want that for you , always . [ scene_break ] dante : bridget ? bridget ? hey . bridget : hey . dante : thinking about darla ? bridget : yeah . you know , in all the craziness , the ones you could always count on -- were thorne and darla . i just needed to go somewhere and talk , have someone listen , i could go to my brothers . i could talk to my sister - in - law . they were so grateful to have each other . and the way she was with alexandria was just -- i ca n't believe she 's gone . and i ca n't believe our kids wo n't have aunt darla to talk to . dante : `` our kids `` ? are you saying -- bridget : no -- no , i 'm not pregnant . we just started trying , you silly goose . dante : you 'd still like to be , right ? bridget : what do you think ? dante : you want to know what i think ? bridget : i think i just might . [ scene_break ] brooke : nick 's already brought so much happiness into to my life . and hope is crazy about him . donna : and bridget gave him up , let her heart be broken , for you . brooke : now , what does that have to do with my feelings for nick ? donna : it has everything to do with them . if being with nick instead of ridge is about putting your children 's needs first then -- brooke : no , no , it 's not . i love nick . why ca n't you seem to understand that ? donna : because for your entire adult life , you 've been in love with ridge . you are so close to having everything you 've ever dreamed of -- ridge , success as a model , ceo of forrester creations , acceptance from the entire forrester family . how could you possibly want to give that up ? brooke : my life has changed . i 've charted a new course . donna : charted a new course ? what are you , captain logan now ? brooke : oh , donna , please . donna : well , your newly - charted course is n't gon na make you happy . brooke : that 's enough . why do n't you just do something for me and get dressed . by the way , i am happy . [ scene_break ] dante : i need to go into forrester . everyone is helping out while thorne 's -- bridget : okay . dante : look , we recently started talking about having a child of our own , right ? bridget : yeah . dante : when was the last time you had your period ? bridget : i do n't know . when was the last time ? dante : six weeks ? bridget : have you been counting ? dante : i think the last time was when we were watching the basketball playoffs . bridget : was it ? dante : yeah . bridget : that was six weeks ago ? dante : mm - hmm . bridget : gosh , i guess with everything going on , i just lost track of time . dante : do you think you still could be ? bridget : i guess we should find out . we should take a test . dante : well , look , i do n't have to go into forrester right away . i could go to a drugstore and pick out a pregnancy test . i mean , you do n't need a prescription for that , do you ? bridget : no , you do n't need a prescription . i can do it . you can go on into forrester . i 'll come by as soon as i know . dante : it does n't take long to find out , right ? bridget : no , just a few minutes . go , go . go get in the shower . [ scene_break ] brooke : you could 've been a surgeon . nick : what 's the challenge in that ? i 'm gon na call her `` the good ship marone . `` brooke : well , then i really hate to ask . nick : then please do n't ask . brooke : could you move all this to another room ? nick : another room ? there 's hundreds of pieces here . brooke : yeah , well , you know , your idea about having donna replace me as the brooke 's bedroom model ? nick : yeah . brooke : well , she 's considering it . nick : oh ? that 's good . why do i have to move all this to another room ? brooke : well , i need to put donna through the paces . i have to see if she can handle the runway . could you help me with this ? nick : oh , so you 're gon na teach her the strides , huh ? brooke : yeah , well , there 's a little more to it than that . nick : what 's there to it , really ? i mean , you walk to the end of the runway , you turn around , you wave . do models wave ? brooke : you know , this idea of having donna do this , i think it 's great , but it does concern me about her lack of experience . nick : oh . brooke : okay , come on , help me . one , two , three -- nick : where are we going ? brooke : this way . pull . oh ! nick : you know , maybe i should stick around and give a man 's opinion , huh ? donna : uh , i do n't think so . nick : well , i did see most of it this morning , if you remember . brooke : donna , you 're going to have to get over this modesty issue . men are going to watch you on the catwalk , they 're going to see you on tv . nick : catalogs , where they 'll order goodies for their sweethearts . brooke : of course . so , let 's get to work . take off the robe . donna : you -- you 're really gon na stay ? nick : yeah . i have my own model to work on . donna : suit yourself . nick : i 'd say she has a good start on things . brooke : yeah , okay . walk down this way , and then walk back . nick : rome was n't built in a day .

[ scene_break ] phoebe : so , you and ashley were very close while you were in paris ? rick : yes , we were . phoebe : then , you 've been keeping all this quiet since you 've been back in l.a . rick : phoebe , ashley came back here . she was starting a brand new job . we wanted to keep things as professional as possible . we did n't want make things uncomftable or awkward -- phoebe : for me , because we all work together . rick : yeah . exactly . i did n't want there to be a problem between us , okay ? i did n't want to give your father ammunition to use against us . phoebe : so , you were what ? protecting me ? rick : yes . yes , i was . is n't that what somebody does when they love someone as much as i love you ? phoebe : i guess , i did n't -- i did n't really make it easy for you . i mean , i was pushing you away when i thought you were blaming my dad for shane 's death . i mean , that 's when it happened , right ? ashley was there for you when i -- when i should have been . rick : phoebe -- phoebe : did you kiss her ? rick : listen , i -- phoebe : did you and ashley kiss ? i 'm just -- rick , you did n't – [ scene_break ] stephanie : so , thorne got angry with you . taylor : well -- it 's completely understandable . it 's been almost exactly a year since darla died . and i know the things he was saying , they were definitely coming from a place of pain . stephanie : well , considering everything , i guess he 's entitled . taylor : i know i cost him his wife . stephanie : no , i was thinking that he fell in love with you and you chose nick over him . taylor : that is not true and you know it . i 'm not standing here trying to minimize my responsibility in this . i get it . i know . i have to live with it the rest of my life . stephanie : so does -- so does alexandria and thorne . taylor : unfortunately , i know that too . but i also that -- has been trying to pull it together and be the best father he can be for aly . and of course , as long as thorne 's okay , aly 's okay . but after what i saw last night , thorne 's not doing okay . stephanie : do you think he 's drinking too much ? taylor : i 'm a recovering alcoholic , stephanie . i know the signs of addiction . the thing that makes this whole thing just so ironic is that thorne 's the one that took me to aa meetings . he 's the one who told me that i had a problem . he was the one who knew that i was in trouble . stephanie : so you think he 's in trouble ? taylor : you have n't noticed ? stephanie , he 's not the same . [ scene_break ] thorne : it 's been a year . they say time heals everything , right ? not that i on that it has n't . it 's family and friends . they just want you to grieve and move on . so , you pretend to gather up your life and that you are okay . how can you be okay if that person who is your life is -- is no longer there ? and all you have left is an empty glass of booze . and a ruptured heart that ca n't be fixed . god , i 'm pathetic or what ? donna : well , you sound like a man who -- what are those ? fine , do n't tell me . like i care anyway . thorne : hey , where are you going ? bartender : do you want to call a cab or should i ? donna : oh , i 'll take him . i know where he lives . just help me get to the car .

[ scene_break ] ashley : phoebe knows ? you told her about paris ? rick : yep . ashley : does she know everything that happened after that , rick ? rick : well , if you asking me if she knows we slept together -- ashley : where is she ? rick : i do n't know . ashley : what if she tells ridge before i have a chance to talk to him ? what if she 's with him right now ? [ scene_break ] phoebe : apparently , it started in paris , when they were working together . and ashley was single again and so was rick . and they were attracted to each other . obviously , they still are . ridge : were you saying this is the reason ashley came back to l.a. ? that they 're still involved -- they 're still sneaking -- phoebe : no , no , it 's like that . or so rick claims . i mean , i do n't know . how am i supposed to trust anything he says anymore ? it 's just -- i really thought that he loved me . i believed him when he said he would n't hurt me again . you know , why did he do this , dad ? why did they do this to us ? ridge : i do n't know , sweetie .

[ scene_break ] ashley : ridge ?
phoebe and rick continue filling in the gaps about his relationship with ashley . slowly she realizes ashley goes back farther and means more to him than just a recent one night fling . ridge and ashley interrupt their smooching for him to take a business call . taylor stops by stephanie 's and informs her that she is worried about thorne , he 's not doing so well . he 's not the same . drunken thorne is still packing the drinks away . donna sticks around to watch and listens to him whine about darla and that friends do n't want to help . they just want him to move on . he knows he sounds pathetic . between her and the bartender , donna manages to get thorne out to her car to take him home . phoebe cries out for rick to stop . despite his explanations , she flies off . she does n't want to hear any more of disgusting details . stephanie asks taylor 's advice . what should she do ? donna dumps thorne in his bed . all it takes is to see a picture of stephanie and donna concocts this brilliant plan which includes thorne to get even with `` the witch `` .

[ scene_break ] bridget : mom and oliver ? owen : yeah , uh , it 's -- it 's all over the fashion press , all over the -- the internet . i guess forrester had a press conference today , and it was supposed to be a tribute to brooke and welcoming her back to the company , and steffy was in charge , and steffy 's the one who leaked the scandal . bridget : and hope was there ? owen : yeah , i - i heard that she gave a very beautiful and loving introduction to the tribute . and that 's when all hell broke loose . bridget : oh , my god . how could mom do this to her ?

( sniffles ) because i want to remind myself how lucky i am to be loved by you . you mean everything to me , okay ? i was living in fear that you might find out the truth , and now it 's all out in the open , okay ? everything . everything . i 'm praying that we can move past this . [ scene_break ] hope : i ca n't tell you what you want to hear , oliver . oliver : please . come on . give us a chance . i love you . that has n't changed . hope : everything 's changed . brooke : just give it some time . the pain will fade . hope : the ugliness wo n't . and that 's what i see when i look at you , you know ? i - i see something disgusting and wrong . oliver : that 's why i - i worked so hard to keep this from you . i was n't -- i was n't trying to protect myself . i was trying to protect you . hope : ( sighs ) oliver : i - i hate what this is doing to us . i - i never wanted to hurt you . hope : i 'm not saying i do n't love you anymore , 'cause i do . and i probably always will .

[ scene_break ] brooke : honey , i know that i 've hurt you incredibly . hope : hurt me ? you have ruined my life . i just said good - bye to the guy that i love because you poisoned everything good between us . you knew how much he wanted me , and you knew that we were being patient and taking our time , building something really beautiful and special . there is so much that i wanted to share with him and with you , you know , but i ca n't now . god , i just ... i - i ca n't look at you . you know , everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie . i ca n't be near you . not here . not at home . nowhere . brooke : honey , look , i - i really think that you do need to come home , and you should n't be alone right now . hope : no . brooke : you need to be around your family . hope : no , i need to be around people i can trust . steffy told me the truth when my own mother could n't . brooke : she only said that because she wanted to hurt me . hope : no ! you are the one who did this . steffy went public , but you 're the one who did this with my boyfriend . do n't you dare blame her for that . all this time ... all this time , i was worried about steffy when the fact is , i should have been worried about you . i had hope for my life , you know ? i had hope for my future . and it is gone . it is ruined because of you . brooke : hope . ( sobs ) hope , wait , please . hope : no . brooke : just wait . brooke : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] stephanie : how many times ? how many times have i warned you about brooke 's behavior ? ridge : it was an error in judgment . taylor : she was a chaperone . ridge : it should n't have happened . no one 's denying that . taylor : you are , because you do n't want to see what it means . stephanie : ridge , she 's used sex to control every element of her life . that 's how she got her foot in -- in the door at forrester . that 's how she keeps ... ( sighs ) her daughters from overshadowing her . do n't you understand this ? ca n't you see the damage to these young girls ? it makes them feel insecure . it makes them feel inferior . ridge : all right , that 's enough . stephanie : all right . uh , yes , you 're right . enough is enough . now i am not going to let you punish steffy because the truth came out about your wife . ridge : and i am not gon na let hope lose the most important relationship in her life . stephanie : oh , please . ridge : because in spite of everything i 've said and done , steffy still holds onto this . look , i 'm sorry , taylor . you should be concerned about our daughter . i am , too . but right now , my big concern is keeping brooke and hope together , all right ? taylor : ( sighs ) stephanie : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] ( knock on door ) bridget : hope . hope : hi . bridget : i heard . hope : ( sighs ) bridget : i 'm so sorry . hope : i did n't know where else to go , so ... bridget : oh , well , i 'm glad you 're here . please come in . come in . hope : ( sighs ) ( sighs ) hope : how did you do it , bridget ? how did you get through this ? because , um , because i do n't think i can . bridget : you can . hope : i ca n't . it 's too awful . bridget : it is . it is awful . it 's terrible , and it -- it will be for a while . but , you know , honey , in time ... hope : yeah , in time . that 's -- that 's , um , that 's what she told me . bridget : i know that you 're confused ... hope : ( sighs ) bridget : and you 're hurt . and you 're probably angrier than you 've ever been in your whole life . hope : it was worse for you , though . you know , i mean , you were married . mom—mom slept with your husband ... and now my boyfriend . ( sighs ) what kind of a person does that ? what is wrong with her ? bridget : oh , come here . hope : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] brooke : hope ? hope , are you in here ? ( breathing heavily ) hope : you have ruined my life . brooke : ( sighs ) stephanie : disgusting , is n't it ? maybe you do n't see it that way . maybe it 's thrilling for you . take you back to the night of the party ? you looking for hope ? i do n't think she 's here . she probably never wants to see you again . ( chuckles ) your daughter 's boyfriend . god . ( sighs ) what were you doing ? asserting yourself while you 're still in your prime ? is that what this is all about ? showing your daughter who the hottie in the family still is ? first bridget , and now hope . brooke : it was an accident . stephanie : you keep saying that , and nobody believes it , because you did it . brooke : my daughter 's out there alone and heartbroken , and i am going to find her . i am not gon na sit here and listen to this crap . stephanie : listen to me , and you leave her alone ! i 'm not gon na let you poison her the way you did bridget , ruin her life . you let her be ! brooke : you would love that , would n't you ? to be able to use this situation to push my daughter out of my life . well , it 's not going to happen . you stay out of this , stephanie . this is between my daughter and me . you are not going to do anything to undermine my relationship with hope , or do anything to brainwash her . i mean it . you leave my daughter alone .
hope tells brooke to stay away from her . she does n't want to be comforted by her . she is destructive so stop pretending . stephanie tells ridge that he can undo this . he can tell steffy that she is not fired . taylor rails at him for using his daughter to keep his head in the sand . it was his wife , brooke , that did the major damage , not steffy . he tells stephanie that he does not expect her support , and he is not backing his wife over his daughter , but just trying to do what he can to keep peace in the family . owen knocks on bridget 's door bearing a pint of ice cream . she appreciates his generosity . he fills her in on what 's happening to hope . oliver finds hope with brooke and tries to explain to her that he never meant to hurt her . she allows him to explain the bizarre circumstances . he got carried away and did n't have a hint that it was n't her that night .

steffy wakes and realizes that bill has not called or left a message . at home , bill is distracted when he should be worried about the board meeting . katie comes in and says she tried to wait up for him last night . he apologizes and says he did not want to wake her . he 's appreciative of last night 's renewal of vows if he did not say it before . she kisses him and says they have the rest of their lives for him to make it up to her . she urges him to go to his board meeting and be his best . they 'll get together later . nick is surprised to find that owen and jackie have sold their loft . he did not even know it was on the market . he 's even more shocked when jackie tells him that she 'd like to pare down and consolidate ; move in with him . steffy reaffirms to taylor that she is soon going to be with the man she loves and she is going to be happier than she has ever been in her life . she knows it happened last night ; bill told her he was going to leave katie . taylor says perhaps , but she does n't know that for sure until he calls and she just hates to see her moping around waiting for the call . bill calls and tells steffy that he is on his way .
hope : our wedding day , and he 's touching steffy like that . ( sighs ) how could he do this ? [ scene_break ] steffy : you 're staring . liam : i 'm waiting for you to say this is all a mistake . steffy : what is -- our divorce or your marriage to hope ? liam : ( scoffs ) no , what madison just e - mailed about marcus . steffy : yeah , i know . it 's -- it really is horrible . i feel for dayzee and him and , you know , anthony , too . liam : i know . same here . i mean , they just got married . can you imagine a - a worse wedding present -- marcus charged with aggravated reckless driving ? steffy : i know . you know what ? liam : ( sighs ) steffy : that actually reminds me . i never got you a wedding gift . liam : ( chuckles ) steffy : do you , like -- is there something special you need ? liam : huh . steffy : huh . bill : ( clears throat ) liam : dad . hey , when did you get in ? bill : open this . it 's from italy . steffy : i 'm guessing it 's ... a bottle of wine . liam : hope and i still need to sign these ? bill : to make your marriage official . liam : i thought it already was . bill : in the eyes of the church , you are married . but according to the state of california , you are not . all you have to do is go down to the county 's registrar office with these signed papers , say a couple of `` i dos , `` and you 're all legal . you and hope will be out of there in no time . steffy : oh , well . ( sighs ) you ca n't blame a girl for hoping . i 'm kidding ... kind of . liam : ( chuckles ) ( door closes ) liam : did you have to do that , bring them here ? i mean , is n't that kind of like rubbing it in her face ? [ scene_break ] steffy : hey . taylor : pam said you were with liam , so i did n't want to interrupt . steffy : hmm . did n't stop bill . he just barged right in . taylor : what 's wrong ? steffy : nothing . nothing . things could n't be peachier . taylor : are you still worried about that video of you and liam ? steffy : there is no video . it 's been deleted , remember ? [ scene_break ] hope : ( sniffles ) i trusted him . he made me believe that it was over between him and steffy . brooke : it is , honey . it was over the minute he realized that good - bye note was n't from you . hope : mom , how are you defending him right now ? how can you watch what just happened and defend him ? brooke : honey , please , just listen to me . hope : it -- it is not what he told me . it is nothing like what he told me . it is so much more than what he made it seem . oh , my god . what if there 's more ? what if there 's more on that video ? brooke : no , sweetie ... ( sighs ) the battery died . really , what you saw is all there is . hope : okay , the -- yeah , the -- the video stopped , but that does not mean that liam and steffy did . ( sobs ) how can i be sure ? they 're there on that bed together . how can i be sure ? brooke : i asked him . hope : ( sighs ) brooke : and he assured me ... hope : yeah . brooke : that it did n't go that far . hope : uh - huh . ( clears throat ) ( sighs ) who else has seen this ? ( sighs ) okay . ( sobs ) he did n't tell me the whole truth . ( sniffles ) he lied to me . i do n't know liam anymore . [ scene_break ] steffy : look , hope and liam are married . nothing 's gon na change that ... well , once it 's officially official . taylor : i did n't know it was n't . steffy : bill brought over some papers that did n't get signed . as awesome as the ceremony was in italy , they still need to make it legal in the u.s. quick trip to the local registrar 's office , you know , a couple of signatures -- well , it 's not like they are n't married already in all the ways that really count . [ scene_break ] bill : it 's all there -- no biggie -- the date and location of the wedding in italy , what the bride was wearing , how dapper your dad looked as the best man , how supportive i 'm being of your wife . i know it was n't always that way -- in fact , it was never that way . i thought steffy was the woman for you . but we 're not dwelling on that any longer . hope is your wife , or she will be , officially , by the end of the day . what ? liam : something happened between steffy and me the day hope and i got married . ( sighs ) bill : ( scoffs ) before or after you learned that the letter was from hope 's old man ? liam : before . i thought hope had left me . i was crushed . i was devastated . and then steffy showed up , and ... you know , and some kissing happened . it -- it got a little intense . but we did n't -- we did not have ... you know . bill : all right . all right . all right . all right . so what 's the big deal ? liam : i told hope . bill : you -- you told hope . but -- damn it , son , when are you gon na stop being such a boy scout ? liam : i - i know . ( sighs ) bill : ( sighs ) so what happened ? liam : it 's fine . now it 's fine . we 're good . i mean , hope -- i -- hope understands and -- and that 's the most important thing . i mean , she understands how it happened . and you know , we 've never been stronger . [ scene_break ] brooke : honey , i know you 're in pain right now , and as bad as this looks , i -- hope : ( sniffles ) brooke : you need to know liam did n't mean to hurt you . hope : mom , stop . brooke : i 'm not gon na let you think what you 're thinking . hope : i do n't even know what i am thinking right now . ( sighs ) brooke : liam did n't want you to see this video , because he was afraid of this , of how you would feel . you have to think of the circumstances . hope : ( sighs ) brooke : he thought you were out of his life for good . hope : mom , will you please stop defending him . brooke : i 'm not . i 'm just trying to give you some perspective . hope : perspective ? ( sniffles ) liam was going to leave with steffy on bill 's jet . brooke : no . no . he was just reacting to what he thought had happened . that 's not how he really felt . hope : he still loves her . brooke : hope . hope : he did n't say it . he did n't have to say it . but you saw the way he looked at her . brooke : he married you . he is committed to you . hope : for how long ? until there 's another misunderstanding and he runs right back into steffy 's arms or her bed ? brooke : they did n't sleep together . you do know that . hope : yeah . ( chuckles ) ( sighs ) hope : if he could turn to her so quickly and barely an hour later turn around and make vows to me ... how could you do that ? brooke : ( sighs ) hope : ( sniffles ) brooke : honey . hope : ( sobs ) [ scene_break ] bill : that 's why i pay you the big bucks -- to handle jerks like vanstory when i 'm away . i leave for one day , and the joint falls apart . liam : you 'll whip them back into shape . bill : the way hope did you ? liam : i had it coming . ( sighs ) bill : what about steffy ? liam : she 's moving on with her life . bill : you sure about that ? [ scene_break ] ( `` arms `` by bianca moon playing ) i never thought that you would be the one to hold my heart but you came around and you knocked me off the ground from the start you put your arms around me and i believed that it 's easier or you to let me go you put your arms around me and i 'm home you put your arms around me and i 'm home [ scene_break ] hope : i remember every promise he made that day . he was so sweet and funny . but when he looked into my eyes , and he vowed never to let a day go by without showing me how important i am to him -- brooke : and you are , sweetie . you 're the most important person in the world to him . hope : that 's how he made me feel . but i 'm not . how can i be ? ( sniffles ) brooke : ( sighs ) hope : i mean ... he was with steffy . how -- how can he go from kissing his ex- wife to committing his life to somebody else ? i mean , did he not mean any of it ? brooke : those vows were as sacred to liam as they were to you . hope : i thought so . they 're not . i mean ... ( sniffles ) what am i supposed to do after seeing this video ? what -- am -- am i just supposed to pretend it never happened ? brooke : honey , he made stake . he knows that and he 's sorry . hope : ( sniffles ) how can i trust that he wo n't do this again ? brooke : ( sighs ) because that 's just not who he is . i mean , he does n't go running around behind your back and cheating on you . you have to put yourself in his shoes , what he was feeling , the betrayal . hope : yeah , no , i -- i know , and i ... ( sniffles ) i get all that . but if it were me , and i had found the note , i would have done everything i could to try to find him , to try to talk to him and figure out what had really gone wrong . but he did n't . ( sniffles ) he read it , and that was that . he did n't try . he did n't fight for us at all . he just turned to steffy . all he saw was her . and all he wanted ... was her . brooke : hope . hope , where are you going ? hope , come back ! ( sighs ) where 's your father ? steffy : i do n't know . what 's wrong ? brooke : ( sighs ) it 's that damn video -- that 's what 's wrong . hope saw it on my computer . steffy : wait , how is that possible ? brooke : look , it 's too difficult to explain . i just need to find your father . steffy : no , no , brooke , you 're freaking out . relax . brooke : i 'm freaking out , because my daughter is devastated . steffy : yeah , well , i will deal with it . brooke : no . no . you stay away from liam , and you stay away from hope . steffy : okay , can you just relax , please ? brooke : if you just stayed away on their wedding day , none of this would be happening . steffy : oh , that is really unfair . brooke : this marriage means a lot to hope , and if you think you 're gon na capitalize on this little situation -- steffy : no , i 'm -- i 'm not gon na do any of ... ( sighs ) wait , you really think they wo n't make it ? brooke : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] liam : hope ? where are you ? hey , gorgeous , you in the shower ? oh , there you are . you 're not gon na believe this . my dad dropped this off today . apparently ... ( scoffs ) we 're -- we 're not officially married . i know , right ? like a -- like a wedding in front of an entire town of people watching us say our vows does n't count , but evidently , italy was just the ceremony . it 's not official until we sign that , so ... yeah , anyway , i 'll explain everything on the way to the registrar 's office , and then we can come back here and make the honeymoon official . ( chuckles ) you coming ? hope : no . liam : um ... okay . yeah , i mean , well , i guess we can put it off until tomorrow , but i -- hope : you told me you kissed her . liam : what ? hope : it was n't just ... some kissing . you were all over each other on the bed , making out , making plans . it 's all on the video . i saw it on my mom 's computer . tell me something , liam . how did you leave that bed with steffy , then look into my eyes and say wedding vows ? were you lying ? liam : no , i meant every word of those vows , and i 'm not gon na let you overreact . i told you what happened . hope : you told me what you wanted me to know and only because my mother forced you to . liam : i did not lie to you , hope . why -- why would you want to know something like that ? why would you want to know details like that ? hope : oh , my god . oh , my god . are you playing that card with me right now ? liam : i 'm okay -- i think -- hope : liam ! liam : can we just take a - a breather here ? hope : you want to take a breather right now ? what is that gon na do , liam ? what will that do ? it is not going to erase what happened between you and steffy in that hotel room . it is not going to turn back the clock . everything is ruined . liam : no , no , it 's not . it 's not ruined . our wedding is not ruined . our relationship is not ruined , not if that 's what we chose . i - i was yours for every breath i took during that wedding , and i will be for every moment onward . yeah , it was a long haul getting here , full of anguish and heartache and tragedy , but we 're here now , and we never have to take another step backwards again . ( scoffs ) i mean , come on , with everything stacked against us , we -- we never would have made it to that beautiful moment if our love were n't strong enough . we will get through this , okay ? i know this . we will get through this .
steffy and liam are discussing marcus 's ordeal of being arrested when bill walks in . he hands liam an envelope of papers which he needs to sign to make his marriage to hope official . liam confesses that something happened that day of the wedding before he married hope . however , hope understands now and that 's the most important thing . everything is fine . steffy tells her mother there is no video , so there is nothing to worry about now . hope ca n't believe that brooke is defending liam . this video is so much more and nothing what liam told her . there could even be more none of them has seen . she can never be sure . liam did not tell her the entire truth ; he lied to her . brooke closes the laptop and tells hope not to keep dwelling on this ; the circumstances lead liam to do what he did when he thought hope left him at the altar . hope cries she still does n't know how he could do this and then an hour later marry her as if nothing was wrong . she 's not sure she can forget this video or can trust him again . he read the note and then did not try to find her , did not fight for them at all . he immediately turned to steffy and wanted her .

[ reporters murmur ] eric : i founded forrester creations over 50 years ago . and it 's thrived over those decades , and the family has become more and more involved . and so i decided , uh , i could step back for a while . leave the company in good hands . but what can i say ? retirement is not for everyone . i came to the summit not only to surround myself with some of the best business minds in the world , but also to announce that i 'm coming back as ceo of forrester creations . [ reporters clamoring ] [ scene_break ] matt : mmm , mmm , mmm - mmm - mmm mmm ! whoo ! that was delish . i mean to say , i enjoyed every single bite of that . quinn : i do n't know what smells better . the , uh -- the onions or sauerkraut . matt : oh , i can tell you . definitely the sauerkraut . mm - hmm . flight attendant : will you be dining with us today ? matt : oh , no thank you . just ate a burger . flight attendant : i see . and you ladies ? we have chicken or steak . there 's also a vegetarian option . quinn : i 'll take the chicken . flight attendant : and for you , ma'am ? kieran : could you repeat the choices again ? flight attendant : chicken or steak . or our vegetarian option , which is pasta salad . kieran : ooh , pasta may be good . matt : you do like pasta . kieran : how 's the chicken cooked ? flight attendant : grilled . kieran : does the steak have a sauce on it ? quinn : you know what , it 's not a gourmet restaurant , so why do n't you just make a decision ? kieran : i 'll take the pasta . flight attendant : great . kieran : oh , shoot . i should 've gone with the chicken . matt : oh , sweetie , i 'm sure your seatmate here , she 'll let you have a bite . [ chuckles ] kieran : oh , yes . we can trade . quinn : [ chuckles ] whatever you want .

[ scene_break ] reporter : what motivated your return ? eric : well , a friend of mine said that i have many more years of creativity in me . reporter : is that friend of yours a beautiful woman ? eric : a gentleman never tells . [ laughter ] liam ! liam ! eva : okay , okay . merci beaucoup tout le monde . thank you , everyone . it 's time for mr. forrester to head inside .

[ reporters `` ahh `` ] wyatt : steffy has just officially passed 2 million followers . [ reporters exclaim ] wyatt : this is only the beginning , people . we have big , big plans . reporter : give us the scoop . wyatt : spencer is designing a revolutionary new online platform . and not just for news and style , fashion and entertainment , but everything . we are expanding , and we are gon na be everywhere . and steffy is gon na be at the forefront of all of that . [ reporters exclaiming ] [ scene_break ] kieran : you did n't eat much . quinn : oh , i 'm too excited . kieran : sounds like you really care for that fella . quinn : i do . he 's -- he 's very special . matt : sweetheart , are you gon na finish that ? kieran : oh , no . i hate to have it go to waste . have the rest . matt : well , do n't mind if i do .

[ scene_break ] steffy : oh , my god . wyatt : [ laughing ] steffy : of course , this is happening . wyatt : this is crazy . why are we doing this today ? steffy : because it 's monaco . we can do whatever we want . wyatt : this is true . steffy : ohhh . and i love rain , and you know that . wyatt : i know . i know . steffy : [ sighs ] wyatt : [ sighs ] steffy : hey , so , eva texted me the updated schedule . we have a few more hours till our next event . wyatt : ohhh . well , then we better take advantage of this time while we can . steffy : [ sighs ] wyatt : oh , man . whew ! steffy : the summit went really well today . wyatt : yeah . steffy : my grandfather 's speech was really inspiring . wyatt : yeah . and you -- you were -- you were just magnificent . and sexy . and just wonderful . steffy : can you stop it ? wyatt : i 'm just saying . it 's true . you ... you impressed me . i love you . and your 2 million followers . and it 's been actually a couple of hours , you 're probably up to about 3 million right now . steffy : okay , shush . i think that calls for , uh , a little champagne . wyatt : yeah , it does . steffy : that you will get . wyatt : i 'll get you some champagne . steffy : a little champagne showers . wyatt : got that champagne showers , baby . steffy : champagne showers . wyatt : all right , let 's see , here . best option to stay out of the rain . steffy : [ laughs ] c'est la vie . [ scene_break ] liam : hi . [ rain pouring ] [ scene_break ] [ bell dings ] matt : oh . kieran : oh ! matt : well , that was not too bad . you know what , we had a good tailwind . quinn : yeah . kieran : flight was quite pleasant , i thought . really enjoyed sitting next to you , quinn . but oh , boy , am i glad we made it to nice . now it 's just a quick taxi ride to monte carlo . matt : [ inhales deeply ] smell that air . mmm ! [ inhales ] oh , that smells like money . kieran : [ laughs ] quinn : we 're not even off the airplane yet . matt : maybe not , but i 'm already feeling a little bit like [ as sean connery ] james bond . [ normal voice ] gon na put on my fanny pack , head straight for the casino . kieran : and i 'm feeling like grace kelly . you know , some people say i look quite a bit like her . quinn : yeah ? matt : hey , do n't forget the phone , kieran . we 've got to be able to video chat with rusty and the dogs . kieran : maybe we should meet up in the square . should we exchange numbers ? matt : [ chuckles ] honey , i do n't think she 's gon na have time for that . will you ? kieran : oh , that 's right . she 's surprising her special fella . matt : he 's gon na be so tickled when he sees you came all the way to monte carlo . quinn : i hope so . kieran : well , take care , girlfriend . we 'll keep our fingers crossed for you . hope all goes well . quinn : you too . [ scene_break ] steffy : hi . please , sit -- sit down . liam : so , you are making quite the splash , are n't you ? you 're like spencer 's new `` it `` girl . steffy : let me guess -- you 're not a fan of social media . liam : it just seems intrusive to me . i do n't know . there 's , uh ... there 's a lot of crazy people out there , none more so than your mother - in - law . does everybody need to know exactly where you are at any given moment ? steffy : quinn 's not -- not here . she 's not the problem . liam : steffy , you told her to stay away , she showed up at your door . you told her not to go near your family , she sneaks into forrester . right ? steffy : i know you 're concerned . but , please , you do n't have to worry about me . liam : how could i not ? wyatt : rain 's dying a little bit , that 's a good -- steffy : yeah . wyatt : oh , come on . liam : hi . wyatt : [ sighs ] you know , will you just -- would you give it a rest , please ? my mother is thousands of miles away right now . you do n't have to look after steffy . that 's my job , okay ? and right now , we are sipping drinks on the french riviera . which , actually , could you hold that up ? 'cause i want to get a picture of the mediterranean in the background . that 's a good picture , right ? some champagne . liam : okay . wyatt : higher a little bit . oh , parfait ! right there . perfect . wait , oh . steffy : what ? i 'm not -- wyatt : you 're spilling it . steffy : i 'm not gon na spill it . wyatt : you have n't even had one and you 're a mess . steffy : okay , i got to be serious . wyatt : okay . be serious . be serious . yeah . look at that one ! ma chérie . my beautiful wife . [ laughs ]
the press and public are abuzz with steffy walking the red carpet and signing photos . with quinn caught in the middle , the couple begin to sing until quinn tells them they are singing out loud so all can hear . perhaps she can trade seats with one so they can be together . the lady insists on sitting by the window so no deal . then she has a panic attack and the guy has to bend over and hold her hand . the attendant tells quinn it will cost $ 10 cash for a blanket and all quinn has is credit cards , so the couple share theirs with her , again squished in like a sardine . then she has to remind them this is not a gourmet restaurant and they will have to accept what the airline offers . at the summit eric announces that retirement is not for everyone and he is returning as ceo of forrester . he has many more years of creativity in him . when asked about his new lady he says a gentleman never tells .
thomas : why did you think that you could n't tell me ? caroline : i do n't ever want you to feel obligated . thomas : no , but i am obligated . you are the mother of my son . we 're in this together . caroline : thomas , we have n't been in this together for a long time . thomas : caroline , things were different back then , but your diagnosis changes everything . caroline : and i 'm not happy about that . bill : she 's mad at me for telling you . i told you she would be . katie : but eric is all right ? brooke : please tell me sheila was n't with him . katie : ugh . brooke : oh , no ! katie : that is a problem . steffy : yeah , i know . you do n't know the half of it . i 'm just really hoping that dad can convince him to come home . brooke : you told ridge where eric is ? r.j. : hey , mom , you wanted to see us ? katie : um , yeah . we should probably be working . steffy : we got that thing . katie : right . okay . let 's go . um , good luck ! brooke : i heard from lieutenant baker . r.j. : so much for confidentiality . brooke : breaking the law is a matter of public record . because texting and driving is a threat to everybody . ridge : nice company you 're keeping . eric : i thought i could trust steffy . clearly not . ridge : she did n't want to tell me . i pulled it out of her . she 's scared for you . we 're all scared , dad . eric : this whole family pattern is getting kind of old , is n't it ? you stab me in the back and then you wring your hands and you fret about me ? ridge : i understand running . but you can never run far enough . i will always find you . brooke : i hope you both understand you were very lucky . r.j. : we do . coco : yeah , it -- it could have been a lot worse than just paying a fine . brooke : if you come away from this thinking `` whoo - hoo ! we 're lucky to get away with this , `` well , then the fine and the close call and the loss of a very expensive car will all be for nothing . the fact is , you 're lucky to be alive . katie : so , uh , is the , uh , swimwear line up to your very high standards ? wyatt : almost . katie : almost ? wyatt : mm - hmm . katie : well , what 's missing ? because heads will roll . wyatt : well , do you remember the movie with elizabeth taylor where she went down to the beach in the white swimsuit and when she came out , it was transparent ? can we get some of those ? katie : you know , that 's a really good idea , but i think that it 's more appropriate for the men 's line , so what size are you ? wyatt : we 'll scratch that idea . it 's a bad idea . eric : to the victor go the spoils . why do n't you go home and enjoy them ? ridge : i moved off the property . eric : with quinn ? ridge : no , of course not with quinn . she -- she barely leaves the house , as far as i can tell . eric : well , that 's very unlike you , is n't it ? do n't you usually like to take possession of the women you steal ? ridge : what do you want to hear ? because i will tell you everything . either in there or through the door . but it 's gon na get said today . shirley : [ sighs ] i 'm trying to find out how you sleep on a private jet , and this internet , i am down a rabbit hole . sally : i will wear my clothes while i sleep . that is what people do on planes . shirley : honey , i am just trying to be supportive of you and tom of forrester . i call him that in my head sometimes . makes him sound like robin hood . sally : i thought you were convinced that i was doomed to lose him to his high society baby mama . shirley : hmm , you know what ? i 'm big enough to admit when i 'm wrong . especially when being right would bankrupt us . thomas : what about douglas ? what -- you know , when you ... i love your moms , but i need my boy . caroline : i mean , we have separate lives , thomas . we 've always had separate lives . i was married , and -- then you were playing the field . i love douglas , but ... he was n't made out of love . we -- we both know that . thomas : that was different . brooke : would you play a video game while driving ? coco : no . brooke : would you watch tv ? r.j. : okay , mom , we get it . brooke : you can only operate one piece of machinery at a time -- a car or a phone . you do agree , do n't you ? r.j. : is using a phone in the car much different than talking to somebody in the back seat ? brooke : honey , do you have a conversation with somebody in the back by typing on a small keyboard ? r.j. : okay , well , then is much different than having a radio or an mp3 player in the car ? brooke : look , i 'm gon na tell you a story . i had a boyfriend in high school , and he was a very good musician . we all knew he 'd be a star . he got signed by a record label right away , first time out . with that money , he went and he bought a car . but he died in that car . he was with his little sister . she survived . and you know what she said ? he was fiddling with the radio stations , trying to find which station was playing his single . that is when the accident happened . r.j. : i 'm sorry . mom , i -- i did n't know . brooke : no , the whole point is it 's just not worth to drive distracted . it 's very , very dangerous . it takes 3 seconds -- that 's it . 3 seconds to lose control . and then you destroy your life and anybody else around you . you may feel safe driving a big , comfy car , yeah , but you 're not . and anybody on that road around you is not safe either if you 're driving distracted . thomas : can you tell me about this auto - immune disorder ? i just -- i do n't know enough . bill : this one is so rare that it does n't even have a name . it 's a cluster of symptoms that do n't respond to any ... caroline : god , can you please just stop ? thomas : no , it 's fine . i know that i do n't have a right to ask you these questions ... bill : well , if not now , when ? we do n't know how much time we have . caroline : i said stop ! look , i get it that you 're trying to say all the right things , but do you have any idea , any clue as to how offensive it is that you only want to be with me because you think i 'm dying ? thomas : that 's -- that 's not true . that has never been true . i 've always wanted to be with you . while i was in new york , i was heartbroken that -- that you did n't want me . i just want to spend whatever time that we have left together . ridge : we ca n't go on like this . eric : you 're the last person i need to justify myself to . ridge : fair enough . you know what day this is , right ? it 's the day when everyone leaves for monte carlo . everyone except quinn . remember last year ? she came and surprised you . it 's the anniversary of you getting together . it 's the first time you became public . and you told everyone how much you love her . and you have n't stopped loving her . so why are you here ? r.j. : okay , mom , what you do n't get is that when my phone goes off , it 's somebody looking for me . brooke : r.j. , nobody trying to reach you wants to be the cause of your death or anybody else 's . just let it ring , and they will leave a message . you can get back to them later . let that be the new normal . that tree could have been another car . and they could be dead right now . so could you . coco : yeah , you 're right . you 're very right . brooke : honey , i do n't know what i would do without you , if something ever happened to you . so , please , just be careful while i 'm in europe , okay ? r.j. : i 'll wait for you to get home for me to be my bad self . brooke : no , you wo n't . r.j. : no . brooke : [ laughs ] sally : what am i forgetting ? shirley : thomas ! sally : no , i 'm meeting him at the airport . shirley : oh ! what about me ? sally : i could never forget you , grams . shirley : oh , thank you , honey . you go have a good time . we 'll be cheering you on , and -- [ gasps ] we will be watching the live feed of the fashion challenge . sally : okay , it is 9 hours later , so whenever it 's daytime in monte carlo it 's nighttime here . shirley : we 'll record it ! [ giggles ] sally : okay . shirley : you just go and have a great time and beat the pants off those forresters . sally : yes ! [ giggles ] okay ! love you . shirley : i love you . thomas : do n't be angry with me . please do n't tell me that i 've done too little or it 's too late . i know . i get it . i 've been trying to cope the best way that i knew how since we ended things in new york , and that 's -- that 's why i threw myself into work . i saw my dad do that , and it 's not right . that 's not the father that i want to be to my son . bill : you know , i 'm sorry , but as a man , as a father myself -- caroline : do n't make things worse ! bill : my motives were pure . but now , thomas , you and i have a plane to catch . thomas : no , i 'm not -- i 'm not going to spencer summit . caroline : what ? bill : well , i certainly understand that . caroline : no . thomas is going . thomas : no , why -- why would i go ? caroline , everything has changed . caroline : because when you make a commitment , you keep them . you want to know what i expect from you ? that 's it . thomas : do n't make any decisions until i am back . caroline : do you see what your lie has done ? bill : come on , caroline . do n't you get it ? these people , they -- they do n't grow up . they stay freakin ' juvenile until there 's a catastrophe . and then and only then can you break 'em . wyatt : and the trip begins . steffy : yas ! sally : it 's a gorgeous day for flying , huh ? katie : what are you doing here ? bill : now , now , now . sally is an invited guest . you know i 'm a big - hearted guy , and , uh , we also know that saying . you keep your friends close , and your enemies , and so on . how 'd it go with r.j. ? brooke : i got through to him . bill : i mean , even i do n't text and drive . well , now you can go to monaco feeling nice and relaxed , and we 'll have a great time . thomas : hey , guys . sorry i 'm late . steffy : perfect timing . sally : oh ! thank goodness . for a second i thought this might be a plot to drop me in the atlantic . wyatt : oh , no , dad reserves that treatment for ridge . steffy : um , actually , uh , my dad 's not joining us . bill : typical . steffy : my granddad 's not coming , either . ridge : so , sheila , how did you find my dad ? sheila : i did n't . eric : she was here when i checked in , down the hall . ridge : uh - huh . eric : look , believe what you want , ridge . ridge : why do n't we try something ? let 's try being honest with each other . can we do that ? just you and me , nobody else here . nobody that matters . the relationship that caused this disaster was n't between quinn and me . it 's yours and mine . from the very beginning -- you knew before i was born that i 'm a bastard . i am what i am , and what i am is a man who wants to win at everything . and you 've been the best at it . you were my first adversary , and you 're still number one . you fired me . and you said the only way i can come back -- if i accept a role beneath steffy , my own daughter . so what do i do ? i got to try and get back to you in some way , i got to retaliate . and no , no , no , it was n't -- i did n't plan it . it just kind of happens that way . i just did what i do because i could . i can make a woman want me . is n't that right , sheila ? sheila : you know what , i never had that problem . ridge : oh , stop . sheila 's right . no , she 's wary of me . quinn was n't . because you told her not to be . and , man , i took her and i wooed her . [ scoffs ] but she resisted . she always resisted . you know why ? because she loves you . i did n't believe it . and i love you , too . but there 's a part of you , there 's something inside of you that makes you better than me . i 've tried to find it , but i -- i do n't -- i do n't have it . but what i do have , dad , is an understanding of what 's going on here . this -- this is not punishing me . it 's punishing you . you 're with the one woman in the world , the one person that understands you and loves you more than anybody . poor woman , beautiful woman ... ... that i used as an innocent pawn in my quest to beat you . game 's over . go home to your wife . sheila : are you done ? ridge : it 's up to you . eric : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , ridge , i -- any time i 've wanted to insult you or berate you , i 've called you a marone . i apologize for that . that was wrong . you 've always been my son . from the first moment your mother put you in my hands ... i 've been your father . and you turned into this boy , this great boy , and we had fun together . we played together , we laughed . and your sisters and your brother , they -- they adored you . and they gave you all the love and attention that you possibly want . you learned to crave that and -- and you took it . because you could . then when you got older , you started to draw . there was my surprise . you could draw . he would draw everything . and you would tell me things about shape and style and color . you would say things to me about design that i -- that i had n't taught you . that made you my son . so , then , you wanted to emulate me , and i thought , `` that 's great , i 'll bring you right into the business with me -- my business . `` it was n't long before you and i , we were the father - son team -- team of the year . we had attention and accolades from the fashion industry all over the world , just pouring in on us , and you loved that . but you wanted to be better than me . you wanted more of that attention for yourself than i had , and so you took it . he took it because he could . and then you took -- you took your mother from me , and you took brooke from me . and then you took the woman i love more than anything in this world . you took quinn from me . because you could . i loved being your father . you 'll never be my son again .
thomas holds caroline and says this changes everything and she should have told him . she is the mother of his child and they need to be a family . eric answers the door and says he thought he could trust steffy , apparently not . ridge says no matter where he goes they will always find him . eric says to the victor goes the spoils so go home and enjoy them . ridge says he has moved off the property and quinn barely leaves the house . a little late but brooke tells coco and rj they are lucky everything turned out all right and they are alive after texting while driving . they can only operate one machine at a time – either the car or the phone , not at the same time . it is just not worth the time to be distracted and it could feel safe but could also involve anyone around them . they agree and will be more careful . thomas wants to know more about this auto immune disorder . bill chimes in that it is so rare that it does not even have a name and the symptoms are varying . caroline tells them to both stop . this is so repulsive that thomas is only interested in her now because she is dying . thomas refutes that but he does want to make every minute count now . he says he has been trying to cope the best way he could since she left and stayed in new york . he does not want to be like his father . he is not even going to the spencer summit . caroline and bill are aghast and she says there is no need for thomas to do that . he made a commitment and he needs to keep it . thomas finally agrees but tells her do not make any plans until he returns . when he leaves caroline lights into bill again about this crazy scheme of his . all meet on the jet . steffy tells them that neither eric or her dad is going along .
liam : that 's my father 's . steffy : it is . liam : explain , please . steffy : he gave it to me . liam : steffy ... i hurt you , and i 'm sorry . but what does that mean ? steffy : you know , you accused me so many times of running to your father , even though it was never true . i was doing everything i possibly could to avoid him . but after walking in on you and hope ... if you say it enough ... you believe it enough ... you can make anything come true , liam . so , yeah , i went to your father . right to him . justin : [ exhales sharply ] i do n't recognize you without the sword . bill : change is good . besides , it looks better on steffy . justin : forrester shares ? those look better on her , too ? you had power over them for so long , now you 're just giving it away to steffy . bill : to mrs . william spencer , yes . what good is a marriage without a little give and take of power ? justin : you 're losing it over that girl . there will come a day when you will remember , i tried to warn you . [ door opens ] wyatt : hey , dad . justin . i got your message . something seems different . what , did you get a haircut ? bill : why , do i look a little extra handsome ? wyatt : no . what -- your necklace . what -- where 'd your necklace go ? justin : he gave it away . wyatt : what ? justin : yeah . bill : to my soon - to - be wife . wyatt : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . wife ? bill : steffy . hope : you ca n't even look at me , can you ? ridge : no , you know what , i 'm trying to figure out how you could do this . justin : it was n't planned ! ridge : oh , it was n't planned ? well , then it 's no big deal . hope : no , i feel awful for steffy , but -- ridge : you feel awful about what ? for making out with liam or getting caught doing it ? brooke : ridge , enough ! do n't talk to my daughter like that . ridge : after what she did , i can talk to her any way i want . brooke : i will give you exactly 10 seconds to apologize . ridge : i 'm apologizing after what she did ? brooke : five seconds . ridge : i see . i guess i got to choose my words a little more carefully around here . brooke : yeah , i guess you do . i understand that you 're upset , but hope was n't be malicious . she did n't set out to hurt steffy . hope : and liam did n't , either . ridge : but she did get hurt . so did kelly . brooke : well , then you can understand that kelly 's parents should n't be together after this . liam 's future is with hope . ridge : where does that leave steffy ? brooke : with bill . wyatt : steffy is your ... future wife ? i 'm -- i 'm not following here . bill : been a busy day . a few changes around here . wyatt : apparently . this is n't part of your imagination ? bill : big changes . steffy 's finally given in to her feelings for me . justin : he 's not lying . bill : liam let her down . again . wyatt : how did he let her down ? bill : well , how do you think ? blonde . do - gooder . names rhymes with `` dope . `` wyatt : no . no . bill : come on , do n't act so surprised . i told you this was n't gon na end any other way . wyatt : [ sighs ] liam : steffy , what i did was wrong , and i hate that you saw , but you know i would have told you . i would have come home and i would have explained what happened . steffy : you would have walked in , seen me holding our baby , and just said , `` hey , i 'm sorry i 'm late , i lost track of time . i was making out with hope ? `` do n't forget who you 're talking to , liam . i know all about how guilt and shame can get in the way of the truth . just glad i finally got to see what everyone else has been trying to tell me . hope 's been trying to tell me . brooke 's been trying to tell me . your father , most of all . liam : if you 're trying to hurt me , it 's working , and i get it , i deserve it . but you made your point . take the damn necklace off . steffy , please , take the necklace off . you need to forgive me . ridge : bill ? is that what you said ? you want bill to end up with steffy ? brooke : i 'm not saying it 'll happen , but she has turned to him before . ridge : when she was at her lowest , and liam pushed her there , and now he pushed her there again . maybe he has no respect for the mother of his child . brooke : because , deep down , liam knows that he 's supposed to be with hope ! why do you think this happened in the first place ? my god , ridge . instead of encouraging steffy to hang on to something that is n't working , why do n't you encourage her to let him go ? ridge : after what he did with her , maybe she already has . brooke : good . that 'll be good . that would be for the best . then liam and hope can be together , and steffy -- ridge : you got to stop saying that steffy 's gon na be with bill . it 's not gon na happen . brooke : [ sighs ] ridge : in fact ... brooke : where are you going ? ridge : i 'm gon na make sure of it . [ door closes ] wyatt : i just -- i ca n't even -- i ca n't even fathom this . steffy witnessed everything with hope and liam ? bill : walked in on them making out . wyatt : but so how does that lead steffy back to you ? bill : the heart wants what the heart wants , wyatt . justin : the heart wants shares of forrester creations . wyatt : huh ? justin : go ahead , dollar bill , tell him the whole story . wyatt : dad ... justin : yeah , the necklace is n't the only thing bill 's giving his bride - to - be . wyatt : oh , my god . you didn't . you gave her the forrester creations shares ? bill : thank you , justin . do n't you have to go shave your head , or something ? justin : yes , i do . make sure he tells you everything . wyatt : thank you , justin . justin : yeah . [ door opens ] bill : steffy 's been hurt by liam way too many times . wyatt : oh , my god ... bill : but i will never hurt her . ever . and my shares are a way of proving that to steffy , showing her my commitment . as soon as she becomes mrs . spencer , the shares are hers . wyatt : oh , so you bribed her ? bill : no . no . i closed the deal . i secured the future of the spencer family with steffy and me at the helm , raising kelly . wyatt : oh . okay . well , i hate to tell you , but liam is not gon na take this . bill : well , liam is done with me . but i still have you . i want you to be here for this , wyatt . i want you to share in the spencer family 's greatest chapter . wyatt : you and steffy . our greatest chapter ? bill : you got that right . you know what i appreciate most about you , wyatt ? wyatt : hmm ? bill : you 've always been a quick learner . steffy : you want my forgiveness ... [ scoffs ] after all this time i spent pleading for yours . liam : it 's asking a lot , but yeah . steffy : i begged you . i humiliated myself . your pregnant wife , on her hands and knees , and you just ... you just walked away . you walked right to hope . and i 'm supposed to forgive ? i can't . liam : you can . steffy : please hear me . i can't . i care about you . i will always care about you . but i ca n't trust you . you do n't know what you want , and i ca n't handle the constant back - and - forth . one moment , you want to be with me , and the next , you 're cheating on me . i have a daughter now , and i owe it to her to be stronger than my mother was , the way she believed and trusted my father 's moments on monogamy would last . that some longing glance at brooke would n't turn into something more . if you think that i will allow my daughter to be raised in a family like that , then you never knew me at all . liam : whoa ! hey ! do n't -- do n't say that . steffy : liam , i 'm gon na protect my daughter . and if that means giving up on love , then so be it . liam : what are you -- listen to yourself right now . what are you talking about ? steffy : just go ! go ! be with hope . go . liam : steffy , listen to me . steffy : go be with her ! go be -- you can have the life you 've always wanted . you can stop pretending a life with me is possible . it 's not . otherwise , you would n't have allowed yourself to get caught up with hope . our newborn is sleeping in the other room , but you 're too starry - eyed thinking about the one growing inside of hope that you could n't even keep your hands off of her . if our daughter is n't incentive enough to keep a promise to me , then i do n't know what is . liam : okay . we have to talk about this , but you are not understanding -- steffy : no , we 're done . we 're done . we 're done talking . we 're done talking , liam . we 're done trying . you made your choice . you might as well embrace it . because this , the two of us , our family ... it 's not happening . i wo n't allow it . wyatt : so this is happening ? you and steffy . bill : happening . wyatt : well , does liam know ? bill : steffy 's probably telling him right now . wyatt : by herself ? bill : well , of course by her -- that 's a good point . wyatt : no . dad ! bill : pour yourself a drink , wyatt . you look like you could use one . wyatt : that is not what i meant ! bill : i love you , wyatt . you 're my favorite ! brooke : you ca n't beat yourself up about this , honey . hope : i just -- i just keep seeing the look in steffy 's eyes when she came in , how hurt she was . and then i start thinking about kelly , and i do n't want to take her father away . brooke : you 're always putting other people first . what about what you want ? what about your needs ? especially now , since kelly is n't gon na be the only baby in the family . you 're not taking her father away . liam is a grown man . he can make his own decisions . and from what happened between the two of you , i ... i think he decided . steffy has to accept that . and so does ridge . [ knocking on door ] ridge : hey . is your daddy home ? wyatt : nice to see you , too , ridge . no , he just left . ridge : where did he go ? wyatt : no idea . is there something i can help you with ? ridge : yeah . tell him to stay away from my daughter . wyatt : so i guess you heard . about liam and hope . wyatt : how did you hear about that ? wyatt : dad told me . ridge : and how did he find out about it ? wyatt : steffy went straight to him , apparently , after it happened . ridge : [ scoffs ] so liam and hope make out , and she runs straight to bill ? i do n't think so . liam : steffy , you 're upset , but i know that you do n't actually mean this . steffy : you do n't think i mean to protect my daughter ? liam : our daughter . i made a mistake . steffy : so did i . a huge one . and i begged you over and over to forgive me . liam , you put me through hell . until you finally decided a life with me could work . then , what , hope throws a fashion show , and you start drooling and completely forget about your daughter and me ? liam : yeah , i know it seems hypocritical , but if you do n't give me a chance to explain ... steffy : no need to explain what i already know . you want hope . you 've always wanted hope . i was an adequate stand - in when she was in europe . even better when i was pregnant with your child . but now hope 's back . she 's back in l.a. and she has a baby growing inside of her . your dream family is within reach . your dream life . so go . go , live it . liam : go ? you know what -- you said that i do n't really get you ? well , guess what , steffy , you must not really get me if you think this is about fooling around . steffy : liam , stop . i told you i am not my mother . i 'm not gon na put up with your occasional commitments . you can have me or you can have hope . the choice has been made , liam . you want hope . liam : and your choice is somehow my father ? is that it ? after months of denial , which is it , steffy ? i mean , either you 're just doing this to hurt me or there has been something real between you all along , in which case , why have you been lying to me ? steffy : well , it does n't really matter now , does it ? what matters is i have clarity . you were always gon na let me down , liam . it 's better that we do this now than in six months , a year , two years from now . it 's done . we 're done . it 's easier this way . liam : do n't you -- do n't do that . do n't you act like this is my choice . steffy : but it is . you made that choice in the dressing room . bill : she 's right , liam . steffy : [ sighs ] bill : hope 's the woman you want . take her . have a wonderful life . god knows steffy will . with me . brooke : you have to look at the good that happened . hope : mom . brooke : honey , your fashion show was a huge success . hope : yes , there is that , but steffy walking in on liam and me kind of overshadows it . brooke : well , do n't let it . someday , you 'll look back at this as the start . hope : of my life with liam ? brooke : exactly . i know he does n't want to admit it , but in that moment , he made a decision . you , liam , and your little baby . a family is coming together . ridge : no , she did n't go to bill . i 'm sure she was upset , and if she wanted someone to talk to , she would have found me or her mother or her brother . but not bill , you 're mistaken about that . wyatt : ridge , i know this is hard to believe , but it 's true . ridge : there 's hundreds of people she could talk to if she wanted comfort . wyatt : i know ! maybe she did n't want comfort . maybe she wanted something else ! ridge : meaning what ? wyatt : forget it . i -- just forget it . ridge : wyatt , meaning what ? wyatt : you do n't want to hear this ! steffy and -- and dad ... ridge : be very careful . wyatt : it 's happening . my father , your daughter . it 's happening . bill : you were sitting up on that horse pretty high and mighty , liam . well , it 's a long fall out of that self - righteous saddle . judging steffy and me ? well , look at you now . liam : yeah , i 'm not sure what happened between me and hope compares to what you two did . steffy slept with my father while she was still married to me . i kissed hope , and then i tried to explain to you what the situation was . steffy : it was n't just the kiss , liam . liam : yes , i know , steffy . i hurt you , and i 'm sorry i hurt you . it still does n't compare . i put you through hell . i know that . it took me a really , really long time to forgive you , but guess what , sleeping with my father is kind of unforgivable . but i got there . i got there , did n't i ? i found forgiveness , and that 's all i 'm asking from you . i got swept away , i 'm sorry . i ended up kissing the only other woman i 've ever loved besides you , who happens to be carrying my child . steffy : it 's not that . i ca n't forgive your indecision . not anymore . i can barely forgive myself for putting up with it all this time , not realizing it would never end . bill : well , it has , because you ended it . liam : do you mind ? i 'm not -- nobody 's talking to you right now . nobody 's talking to you . this is steffy 's decision . bill : and she 's made it . she made a commitment to me . liam : you know this is wrong , right ? we have a daughter together . bill : [ laughs ] really ? a daughter ? so now you 're worried about your daughter . were you worried about your daughter after the fashion show ? because you did n't go home to her . you showed no concern for your daughter while you were making out with hope . well , the good news for kelly is that now she 'll be raised in a home with stability . she 'll never know about the uncertainty she 'd feel if you were the man in her house . liam : give it a rest , will you ? bill : of course , we will all look after her together , but you will answer to steffy and me . liam : i 'll answer -- i 'll answer -- how dare you ? bill : no , liam , how dare you ! liam : i 'll answer -- bill : it is over ! liam : [ grunts ] bill : it 's over because i am stepping in . i 'm stepping in to give steffy and kelly the lives they deserve . lives filled with loyalty and love and trust ! steffy will never question whether or not she comes first with me . ever . everything she wanted from you , that you could n't give , she will get from me . liam : steffy . you do n't have to do this . bill : you knew this was coming , liam . steffy and i are together . the way it was always meant to be . . . .
liam says that necklace is his father 's so she needs to explain it . he says he hurt her and he is sorry but he has to know what that means . steffy says she walked in on liam , the pure and perfect one , with hope and that was enough . so yes she went to his father . justin tells bill that he does n't look like himself without his necklace . wyatt comes in too and notices something different .new haircut or something . then he realizes it is the necklace and bill admits he gave it to steffy . wyatt says he is not following . bill tells him that liam let her down again so do n't act surprised that she made a choice . steffy tells liam he can forget the apologizes as she saw him with her own eyes . he would not have come home that day with her holding kelly and tell her that he had just come from making out with hope . liam asks her to take off the necklace . brooke catches ridge reaming out hope . she tells him he can not talk to her daughter that way so apologize . he scoffs . he says liam pushed steffy one time and now hope is pushing her again . she has no respect for steffy . brooke says liam 's future is with hope and that leaves steffy with bill . ridge walks out and says he will make sure that wo n't happen .
brooke : what do you think ? is it gon na clear up ? nick : not yet . [ bell rings ] brooke : we ca n't just sit here . nick : we do n't know what 's out there . brooke : well , nobody can see us either . nick : that 's why we have fog lights and warning bells . we 're fine . brooke : we 're stuck . nick : a fog like this can clear off in a minute . brooke : or it could stay around all night . i know what the weather 's like out here , nick . nick : a good captain is always optimistic . brooke : we were supposed to have a lovely dinner on catalina tonight . nick : are you hungry ? is that what you 're saying ? brooke : what do you think ? i 'm sure you do n't have any wonderful food here on this ship of yours . nick : come here . we 're on a boat . we 're surrounded by food . here , put that on . brooke : oh , no , no , no , no , i do n't fish . nick : you can hold a net , ca n't you ? brooke : you know , it 's slippery out there . nick : well , just hang on to something . you 'll be fine . brooke : oh , oh , look , i 've got a signal on my cell phone . maybe i should call somebody . nick : well , who are you thinkin ' about calling ? the pizza delivery guy ? brooke : oh , very funny . nick : now , this is gon na be truly fresh fish , not that stuff you get at that cafe who 's its you eat at . what is it ? brooke : cafe russe . nick : russe . right . brooke : russe . nick : whoa ! brooke : oh ! nick : we hit something . get the net . brooke : what net ? nick : the net , the net , back here . grab the net . it 's on the floor . that 's it there . bring it over here . that 's it . all right , now , put it down by the water . brooke : where ? nick : overboard . put it -- just bend down -- that 's right . just try to scoop him in there . that 's it . scoop him up . good , good , good . good , good . good , there you go . excellent . that 's a girl . all right . look at that . look at that . huh ? well , i do n't need to take you to dinner . i brought dinner right here . good job . brooke : you 're not gon na kill that , are you ? sally : hello , rick . rick : sally , your daughter 's making a big mistake . sally : excuse me ? rick : hooking up with deacon . it 's a bad idea . sally : really ? for who ? rick : for macy . sally : oh , i see . you 're concerned about macy . rick : well , are n't you ? sally : look , why do n't we just cut right to the snapper , save a lot of time ? i know all about deacon sharpe . his entire history . and i think i can assure you , that 's all behind him now . rick : right , right , because he 's a changed man ? sally : he 's trying to be . rick : yeah ? and what 's macy trying to do ? sally : i 'll just accept that as a rhetorical question . rick : she is using my son to get back at my mother . sally : oh , rick , no . macy has gotten very close to little eric . she would never use him . rick : why ? why is she so interested in deacon 's children ? sally : because macy and deacon are interested in each other . rick : and this is their way of getting back at my family . sally : no . no , this is their way of getting on with their lives . now , apparently , your family does n't want them to . and what is all this talk about vengeance and getting even ? seems to me that if anybody 's being vindictive around here , it 's you , rick . macy : you want to marry me ? deacon : more than anything . macy : look , i realize this might be a way around brooke 's restraining order , but you really should check with an attorney first . deacon : wait a second , i do n't need to check with anybody . i know how i feel . macy : i know you 're angry . i understand . i 'm angry , too . deacon : i love you . macy , i love you . i want to spend the rest of my life with you . you and me , and the kids . macy : a family . deacon : no . our family . look , i 'm not trying to outwit brooke here . i 'm not just looking for some legal loophole to jump through . i want you to be my wife . and when i do finally get to see my kids , i want you to help me raise 'em . rick : you think i 'm being vindictive ? sally : i think you 're doing everything in your power to keep deacon away from his children . rick : we 're protecting them . sally : he 's their father . rick : sally , deacon is dragging your daughter into a fight that they can not win . sally : he 's giving her a reason to smile again . he 's made her happy . spending time with deacon and his children has given her a whole new lease on life . and i do not intend to stand by and let you or your family take that away from her . not now , not ever again . macy : oh , deacon . i -- i do n't know what to say . deacon : well , you could try yes . macy : i 'm touched . i -- i am . deacon : i caught you off guard , did n't i ? macy : i just -- i was n't expecting any of this . i was n't expecting to meet you or connect with your kids . deacon : macy -- i want you to be a part of their lives . macy : i want that , too . i do . it 's just that i 've been through a lot . deacon : i know . macy : we both have . and we 've been there for each other . but -- i do n't want you to confuse that . deacon : now , do i look confused to you ? macy , i have never been more sure of anything in my life . and everything that we have been through , to me that 's just proof . macy : of what ? deacon : of how right this is . now , think about it . you think what marriage is . it 's two people coming together and doing better than they can by themselves . macy : it 's just happening so fast . deacon : we have waited our entire lives to get to this place . and i do n't know about you , but i 'm not gon na wait another minute . rick : sally , i 'm sorry about what happened to macy . i really am . [ cell phone rings ] rick : you know , i 've got to take this . sally : fine . we 're through here anyway . rick : mom ? brooke : look , i 've got to talk fast because my phone 's dying out . i just want you to know that i 'm on nick 's boat and we 're stuck in the fog . rick : what do you mean you 're stuck ? brooke : we ca n't move until the fog lifts , but i just want to make sure that you and amber can watch little hope for me until i get back . rick : yeah . yeah , no problem . how long are you gon na be ? brooke : i have no idea . rick : are you in catalina ? brooke : no , not yet . but i just do n't want you to worry , okay ? rick : oh , i 'm not gon na worry . you 're with nick . you 'll be fine . look , just have a good time and i 'll see you when i get home . brooke : i 'm losing you . hello ? nick : brooke , what 's going on ? brooke : rick ? nick : the food 's ready . you still hungry ? brooke : yeah . rick 's gon na watch the baby for me . nick : oh , well , good . brooke : yeah . nick : can i have that ? brooke : oh , sure . nick : all right . that 's all settled . we can relax . would you like to eat ? brooke : yes . nick : okay . dinner is served . brooke : this is wonderful . nick : well , what it lacks in looks it will make up for in taste . brooke : i did n't know you could cook . brooke : thank you . nick : you can actually learn a lot about a person . there you are . i 'd say by the time we get moving again -- we 'll know each other a whole lot better . cheers , kid . brooke : cheers . macy : deacon . deacon : hey , we 've earned this . we deserve this . macy : i do n't want to rush . deacon : i know . i know . hey , listen , we 're gon na -- we 're gon na take it slow . you can trust me . macy : i do . rick : hang on , sally , we 're not finished yet . sally : i think we are . rick : no , sally , listen to me , okay ? sally : no . i 've heard enough . you know something , rick ? the only thing more annoying than a forrester on his high horse is a forrester pretending to be contrite . rick : sally , i really am sorry about what happened to macy . sally : well , you should be . you and your whole ridiculous family . rick : yeah , you see ? macy does blame us . sally : oh , what was i just saying , huh ? it has to be about you , right ? rick : no , no . this is about deacon . he is a user . he used becky . he used my sister . sally : and what about your mother ? oh , but then , of course , nobody takes advantage of brooke logan , do they ? rick : nobody threatens her children , either . sally : why would deacon threaten her children ? unless this battle is n't as futile as you seem to think it is . rick : this is not macy 's battle . this is not macy 's business , and she 's not doing herself any favors getting involved . sally : and you 're not doing yourself any favors by coming to me with this , either . macy is not going to go on living her life according to forrester rules . she is going to make her own decisions from now on . and i support her in that 100 % . rick : even if she ends up getting hurt ? sally : now , who 's threatening who ? rick : it 's just what happens to people who get involved with deacon . sally : macy and deacon have been a very good influence on each other . and you know something else , rick ? i think if your family allows little eric to spend time with them , macy will have a very good influence on him as well . brooke : this fish is fabulous . nick : i can go catch another one if you want . brooke : i 'm all right . nick : yes , ma'am , you are . brooke : so what other hidden talents do you have ? you can cook , you can fish , you can play guitar . nick : i can tie 100 different knots . brooke : hmm . well , that could certainly come in handy . nick : yeah ? why 's that ? brooke : well , according to massimo , he thinks i 'm an expert at tying the know . but lately -- nick : well , it 's okay to step back and examine your options every now and then . brooke : well , look at a couple like massimo and your mother , how they 've just kind of thrown caution to the wind and just went for it . nick : after going it alone their whole lives . do n't forget that . brooke : your mother did n't date after her husband died ? nick : oh , no . my mother and i have very high standards . brooke : obviously . nick : remember , i pretty much have n't known who i was my whole life . ca n't really give much to another person when you do n't know who you are . so now i know who my old man is , and it 's time to start looking ahead . brooke : and what do you see ? nick : children . five girls . that 's what i 'd like to have . brooke : not a boy ? nick : no . i do n't think i could deal with somebody like me . brooke : hmm . for some reason , i did n't picture you as a sugar and spice kind of guy . nick : well , girls are n't like that anymore . dance recitals and dolls . they play the same sports as boys . i could be the fishing coach . brooke : wow . but you know what ? a lot happens before that . like , there 's midnight feedings , you 've got to change all the diapers . nick : well , i 'll just stick to gutting the fish for now . i think i 'd be a good dad . brooke : i think you would , too . a little girl needs someone to make her feel safe . macy : you certainly are full of surprises tonight . deacon : oh , yeah ? you had a couple of your own there . macy : you know what i mean . deacon : yeah . so , you still think it 's too soon to get married ? macy : it 's a big step . deacon : it 's a big step in the right direction . macy : yeah , it could be . deacon : no , no , no . it will be . macy : you are so sure of yourself . deacon : yes , i am . about us , i got no doubt . macy : i do n't doubt you . not at all . deacon : tell me , then -- what 's the matter ? macy : well , we have n't known each other that long . deacon : yeah . okay , all right . go ahead , ask me . anything . anything you want . macy : it 's -- it 's not you . it 's me . deacon : macy , i know that you are -- you 're one of the most decent people that i have ever met in my life . i know how i feel when i 'm around you . and i also know that you 're just getting out of a marriage . macy : i 've made some mistakes , deacon . deacon : join the club . macy : i 've jumped into some relationships . i 've gotten married for the wrong reasons . deacon : are you worried about what to tell your family ? i mean , i understand , you know , if sally does n't want me calling her `` mom `` right away . we 'll ease into that . macy : i do n't exactly know how to explain this to them . deacon : you know something ? everybody 's a sucker for love . all you got ta do is tell them the truth -- that we met each other , and we fell in love . macy : it 's that simple for you ? nick : how do those jammies fit ? brooke : oh , they 're good . how do they look ? nick : good . we 're not going anywhere tonight . brooke : what did i tell you ? nick : well , you were right . brooke : are we in any danger ? nick : i guess that depends . probably a good idea to get some shut - eye . brooke : you only have one bed ? nick : well , this is n't a cruise ship , honey . brooke : nick , i ca n't share a bed with you . nick : no problem . not interested . brooke : you 're not ? nick : nope . not if what i hear about you is true . brooke : what did you hear about me ? nick : that i 'm just some speed bump on your way back to forrester . brooke : who told you that ? nick : do you deny it ? brooke : do you need me to ? nick : not really . i know you 're attracted to me . brooke : that 's your most attractive quality -- your modesty . nick : thanks . brooke : there is something very appealing about a man who wants what he has . which begs the question -- what attracts you to me ? nick : well , who says i am ? brooke : i do . nick : maybe a little . brooke : why ? nick : because we 've both devoted our lives to something . i devoted mine to the sea . and you 've devoted yours to forrester . brooke : we 're both missing something . nick : i think so . we 're the same , you and me . we may be lost in the fog , but we 're really not lost at all . are we ?
rick & sally talk at insomnia . he does n't like deacon & macy fighting for his kids . she thinks things are not all about the forresters . he says macy wants revenge on brooke . she disagrees 'cause she cares for deacon and his kids . he still thinks macy wants revenge and they better stay away from the forresters . in that conversation , brooke phones rick and says she 's stuck out in the fog for who knows how long and he will have to watch her baby ' till she gets back . he agrees and feels she 's safe since she 's with nick . nick had just reeled in a fish with brooke catching it in the net . he takes her inside the boat for dinner . she 's amazed at his cooking skills . they eat , drink , and have a romantic time getting to know each other . afterwards , brooke discovers there 's just one bed . nick says `` this is n't a cruise ship honey . `` they kid around about not being interested in each other romantically and have no attraction . nick says the right words about them being alike stuck in a fog that he reaches in and kisses her . meanwhile , macy tells deacon his proposal was too soon . he tells her he wants her for life and to raise his kids with him . deacon says he 's been waiting all his life for this moment . he takes her into the bedroom . next we see them in the bed ( after the fact ) and he 's telling her sweet words about wanting to live his life with her !
hector : this is n't right . samantha : the show should 've started by now . hector : yeah . eric said `` technical difficulties . `` samantha : they had every detail worked out last night . hector : do you think caty got cold feet ? samantha : oh , you saw her . you saw how excited she was . hector : i know . that 's what worries me . caitlin : i ca n't believe this is happening . rick : all right , look , nobody panic . we 're gon na figure this out . thomas : what , dad just took off ? rick : well , he went to spectra to find some answers . megan : who 's going to make the announcement ? caitlin : what announcement ? rick : ridge wants to cancel the show . caitlin : cancel it ? thomas : that 's what dad would do . caitlin : why ? oscar : this line 's old news . caitlin : yeah , but it 's good . ridge said so . thomas : it 's great . and so are you . and nobody 's gon na get a chance to see that . caitlin : i do n't understand . oscar : and there 's tons of reporters out there . somebody 's gon na have to tell them something . rick : i will . caitlin : so that 's it ? we 're done . rick : no . sally : be reasonable , darla . think what you 're saying . darla : sally , they 're going to find out anyway . eric : if we do n't , the police will . clarke : now , now . hold on . those are our designs . completely original . check it out , they 're not identical to yours . ridge : and how would you know that , unless you 'd seen ours ? stephanie : let 's just stop playing games here ! thorne : sally , for darla 's sake , would you just give us the truth ? darla : please , sal . sally : honey , you really do n't want me to do this . darla : how much clearer do i have to make this ? sally : but what you are asking -- darla : i 'm not asking , i 'm telling you , sally . you have no choice here . please . look at them . they 're not going to let this go . if they go to the police and they press charges , honey , i ca n't protect you . sally : are you saying that you think i should do this for my own sake ? darla : if that 's what it takes to get through to you , yes . sally , please , tell them right now . who gave you those designs ? sally : you . i got them from you . rick : we 're going on . megan : what ? oscar : hold on . thomas : well , my dad said to cancel the show . rick : yeah , i know what he said . i know what he said . caitlin , you ready ? caitlin : yeah . megan : wait a second . you know how ridge does n't like to be overridden . rick : you know what , he just found out the line was stolen , he was upset . but he believes in ingénue . and he believes in caitlin . thomas : we all do . rick : all right . oscar , you get everybody cued up . i 'm gon na go out there and warm up the crowd . oscar : all right . rick : excuse me , ladies and gentlemen , may i have your attention please ? most of you know me . i 'm rick forrester , vice - president of forrester creations . we apologize for the delay and thank you very much for your patience . jarrett : rick , what 's going on ? reporter : why have n't you started yet ? rick : well , we 'll be starting in a minute . jarrett : is it true ? did spectra steal your collection ? rick : well , i ca n't comment on spectra 's line . and believe me , no one else will be after they see `` ingénue by forrester . `` jarrett : so you 're going ahead ? rick : you bet we are .

[ applause ] darla : ridge is right . i am stupid . i know you 're angry . i do n't blame you . i screwed up . go ahead , thorne . let me have it . i deserve it . please , say something !
darla pleads with sally to tell the forresters who gave her the ingenue designs . sally does n't want to but eventually tells that darla gave them to her . darla realizes there was a mistake and explains it . thorne backs her up . ridge is livid and yells at darla . she rushes out and meets thorne at home . she berates herself for being stupid . meanwhile , the ingenue show goes on , despite ridge 's wanting to cancel it . it is a big hit with everyone , except for thomas , who saw rick and caitlin hug and then kiss . rick goes on in thomas ' place when he leaves .
donna : what 's going on ? nick : your sister has some news for you . you want to tell her the news ? brooke : when nick suggested that you replace me as spokeswoman for brooke 's bedroom , i was n't sure if you could do it , i was n't sure if you wanted to do it . donna : it 's your baby . brooke : yes , i created it , i nurtured it and watched it grow into one of the most successful clothing lines ever . it 's not just a brand name , it 's a philosophy , it 's who i am . donna : which is why you ca n't be replaced . brooke : i 'm ready to take on new challenges in my life . donna : even if it breaks your heart ? brooke : it would break my heart if you said no . donna : brooke -- nick : your sister 's offering you this job -- she 's counting on you . do n't let her down . [ scene_break ] bridget : felicia -- please , come on . this does n't concern you . felicia : whether you 're pregnant or not ? our son could have a little brother or sister on the way . you might 've mentioned you were trying . bridget : why would he need to tell you that ? felicia : dante is dominick 's father . if he 's gon na have more children , i think i have the right to know . dante : look -- she 's going to find out anyway . so , are you pregnant ? bridget : the test came back negative . i 'm not pregnant . dante : well , we 'll keep trying , right ? [ scene_break ] stephanie : brooke resigned ? ridge : as spokesmodel for the bedroom line , but she 's still ceo . stephanie : oh , well -- it 's a start . i know you think it 's the end of an era . ridge : there 's no brooke 's bedroom without brooke , mother . stephanie : well , you just have to move on . ridge : have you checked the sales figures lately ? stephanie : of course i have . they 're extraordinary . ridge : it 's our most profitable venture yet . stephanie : well then maybe she 'll change her mind . ridge : she 's already found a replacement . her sister , donna . [ scene_break ] donna : you 're sure you want me to replace you ? nick : you seem like you 're a natural with this . donna : i do n't know the first thing about modeling . brooke : i 'll teach you . you can do this . donna : look , it 's not donna 's bedroom , it 's brooke 's ' bedroom . they want to see you . brooke : we 'll make the transition as smooth as possible . donna : what if i tank ? brooke : i wo n't let you . you saw brooke 's bedroom as one of my dreams before i even knew that i had it . i can trust you more than i can trust anyone . donna : look , i know this is an amazing opportunity for me , i do -- nick : and you should grab it . donna : i know my sister . i saw the look on your face when i came downstairs . brooke : donna , i 'm sentimental , you know that . i 'm closing a chapter in my life that was very important to me . but now i 'm opening a new one , and so are you . so , i made my decision . the job is yours if you want it . donna : well , do n't you have to run it by ridge ? nick : she does n't need his permission . donna : but it 's his line , too , brooke . he has a right to know . nick : he 's got no right . brooke : nick -- could i just talk to my sister for a minute -- alone , please ? nick : sure . [ scene_break ] stephanie : oh my god ! she has n't accepted ? ridge : ca n't imagine her turning it down . she 'll make more in a week than she could earn in a year . stephanie : what does she know about modeling ? who 's gon na teach her ? ridge : not me -- i 'm not designing for the bedroom line anymore . stephanie : what ? but you love that line . ridge : i love working with brooke on it . yes , she was my inspiration . frankly , it 'll never be the same without her . [ scene_break ] donna : i 'm sorry , okay ? i did n't mean to get his knickers in a twist . brooke : you were goading him . donna : if it was n't for your seafaring husband , you 'd never give up modeling , you would n't need me to replace you . your giving up something your passionate about to make him happy . brooke : because i love him . and marriage is about compromise . someday you 'll understand that . donna : so i 'm just supposed to sit back and watch you make the biggest mistake of your life ? brooke : well now , if giving up modeling is the biggest mistake of my life -- donna : no , it 's not just the modeling , brooke , it 's what it represents . your future with ridge . your destiny . brooke : donna , what i had with ridge was an amazing love story , but it 's over . so what 's it gon na be ? is this the new face of brooke 's bedroom ? donna : you really think i can do it ? brooke : i know you can . you 're gon na make me so proud . [ scene_break ] dante : are you sure these home pregnancy tests are reliable ? bridget : yeah , yeah , they 're almost 100 % accurate . dante : i was already thinking about names . bridget : oh baby , i know you 're disappointed . dante : are n't you ? bridget : honestly , i 'm -- a little bit relieved . dante : relieved ? what ? bridget : well , i mean -- honey , we 're not even married yet . dante : i thought you wanted this . bridget : well i do -- i know i told you that , but we have the rest of our lives to raise children and it would be nice to focus on ourselves . you know , get to know each other . dante : get to know each other ? we already know each other , i mean -- was i wrong ? bridget : of course we know each other , that 's why i can be this honest with you . look , i know that i 'm doing a 180 here , but if you can just be patient with me -- dante : patient ? that 's all i 've been is patient since the day i met you . i waited a year for you to get over nick -- remember that ? then i asked you to marry me , when you said no , i almost married your sister . bridget : honey , i 've just made some mistakes and i do n't want to make another one . dante : so having a baby with me would be a mistake ? bridget : i did n't say that . please do n't put words in my mouth . dante : bridget , just tell me , what are we doing here ? what ? bridget : seems like you 're overreacting a little bit . dante : do you want have a life with me or not ? bridget : how can you ask me that ? dante : because i want to know if i 'm wasting my time . you led me to believe that you wanted to have a family with me . bridget : i do want to have a family with you , but we have n't even set a date yet . dante : i 'd marry you tonight , but you keep wanting to wait . bridget : my sister - in - law just died . i feel like you want me to prove something to you that you should already know . i love you , dante , and -- dante : i want to be alone , please . bridget : dante listen -- dante : just please -- just go . please . [ scene_break ] [ knock at the door ] nick : hi , is it safe ? brooke : yeah , donna left a little while ago . nick : okay . so give me some good news -- did she take the job ? brooke : she 's practicing as we speak . [ scene_break ] donna : chin up . shoulders back . now walk . loosen up ! sell it . [ applause ] ridge : brava . donna : ridge ! you scared me . ridge : so brooke 's passed the torch . donna : yeah , can you believe it ? me , donna logan , spokesperson for brooke 's bedroom . ridge : did she say exactly when this transition is supposed to take place ? donna : she 's holding a press conference for tomorrow morning . ridge : oh , that fast ? donna : you know how she is when she gets an idea in her head . wo n't take no for an answer . ridge : mm - hmm -- donna : look , i know you 'd rather have brooke modeling the line . ridge : you 're gon na be fine . donna : they wo n't be looking at me , they 'll be looking at your designs . ridge : not this time . donna : what do you mean ? ridge : i 'm not gon na design the brooke 's bedroom line anymore . [ scene_break ] felicia : hey -- i could say i 'm sorry that bridget 's not pregnant but you 'd know that i was lying . i like it that we have a child together . bridget may have you , but i have your son , the best part of you . dante : you know what she said ? she said that she was relieved she was n't pregnant . i thought she wanted to have a family with me , now she wants me to wait . felicia : dante , i am so sorry . dante : i did n't even tell you the best part about it . she wants me to be patient ! [ glass breaking ] dante : i know you warned me this would happen . i asked her to marry me , she said no . i ask you to marry me , you say yes and then she 's got to have me . now that we 're together -- felicia : maybe it 's better for it to come out now , before there 's a child involved . dante : she 's driving me crazy . felicia : you know , everything you want you already have with me . a child . a woman who loves you . i love you . and i miss you . we were happy . yeah , maybe it did n't last very long , but we were a family . the three of us in our own little world . and it felt right -- to me , anyway . dante : come on felicia -- felicia : oh god , i hate saying this . you 're never gon na be happy with her . i know that you do n't realize it right now , but you know what , you will . and when you do , i 'll be waiting . dante : i know what it 's like , you know , not wanting to be with someone -- trying to be patient . felicia : you 're worth it . so whenever you 're ready - [ scene_break ] nick : i know it 's tough . brooke : yeah , but it was the right thing to do . for all of us . nick : i am crazy about you . brooke : i love you , too . nick : you ready for bed ? brooke : i 'll be up in a minute . [ scene_break ] donna : ridge , you ca n't give up the bedroom line . ridge : do n't worry , maybe my father will step in . you 'll be in good hands . donna : i 'm not thinking of myself . i know how much brooke 's bedroom means to you . ridge : brooke and i definitely made some magic . donna : it would n't be the same without her . you know , this whole situation is wrong . brooke and nick married ? my sister cutting herself off from everything you two share ? ridge : brooke is lost . donna : because she 's not with you . you 've been the one constant in her life . even when you 're apart , it 's like her love for you grounds her somehow . which is why i 've always looked up to you two -- what you share . i mean it 's true . it 's -- you guys have been the gold standard . what the rest of us hope to find in a relationship -- only to come up short . i know , believe me , i 've tried for years and never married -- no serious involvements . because of you , ridge . this is n't a come - on . i just want you to know the effect that you 've had on my life . no man has ever measured up . i have to wonder if any one ever will . you 're handsome , and sexy and exciting and dangerous . you 're kind and understanding . you 're everything a woman could ever ask for . ridge : seems your sister has forgotten . donna : temporarily . but she 'll remember . she always comes back to you . destiny . is n't that what you both call it ? i mean it 's true . i 've had a front row seat to the greatest love affair ever . it 's not over . it ca n't be . ridge : thank you , donna . donna : no , i should be thanking you . seeing the passion that you guys share is -- it 's given me something to aspire to . and i refuse to settle for anything less . even though i ca n't find that fulfillment in a man right now -- in the meantime , i am determined to make my mark on the runway . ridge : you 're gon na be great . donna : i was kind of hoping to do it with you . but , you know , i totally understand if you do n't want to design for anyone but brooke . and even though this is my first modeling job and i was kind of counting on you , i wo n't hold it against you if the whole thing goes bust and they blame it all on the poor , little waitress from san francisco who does n't know -- ridge : okay , all right , all right , all right . you win . i 'll design the line . donna : oh my god ! you have no idea how much this means to me . if i can do anything -- anything at all -- ridge : you 've already done a lot . you 've done a lot . this last while has n't been real easy for me , as you know . but being with you -- donna : i want to be there for you , ridge -- in any way i can . whenever you want . whatever you need . let me be your logan .
nick tells donna that brooke is counting on her to be the new spokesperson for brooke 's bedroom ; do n't let her down . she plays coy , makes mention that she knows nothing about modeling but in the end she accepts . not before she gives a lecture to brooke that she should n't be giving all of this up just to keep her seafaring husband happy . bridget tries for some privacy but felicia remains and dante even asks her in front of felicia if she is pregnant ? she tells him the tests are negative . felicia is relived . she is miffed they did n't even tell her they were trying ; she felt it was her right to know . bridget confesses she is relieved which perturbs dante and he asks to be left alone . felicia wastes no time in speaking her peace and emphasizes they could still be one big , happy family . not saying yes or no , he kisses her . ridge tells his mom that donna will be the new spokesperson . but that he wo n't be designing the new line . she does n't concur but thinks he has to move on without brooke . ridge watches donna practice her runway walk and tells her she will do just great . she convinces him to stay and design for the line . and has him puffing like a peacock when she tells him this is not a come - on but he is handsome , sexy , exciting and dangerous . no man will ever measure up and she is not going to settle for less . she puts in a plug too for her sister , his destiny . she 'll come running back . but for now , she wants ridge to know she will do anything .. anything for him . let her be his logan . she surprises him with a kiss .

man : in a shocking development , the house of forrester was rocked today by yet another scandal centering around legendary brooke logan forrester . my kind of gal . during a press conference welcoming her back to the company , a video tribute inadvertently revealed that brooke had become sexually involved with her daughter 's boyfriend oliver jones while at a recent graduation party . brooke has been unavailable for comment . katie : this ca n't be true . brooke would never intentionally hurt hope . stephen : she loves her daughter with all her heart . ridge , why are you being so quiet ? bill : maybe because ridge does n't know how to tell you and katie that what was revealed in the press conference ... really did happen . katie : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] brooke : you are not going to use this situation to undermine my relationship with my daughter . stephanie : i do n't have to do that . you 've already done it by having sex with that boy . i am not going to let you destroy another daughter . i 'm not gon na let her become damaged goods like bridget . [ scene_break ] bridget : god , sweetheart , i am just so , so sorry that this happened to you . hope : ( sighs ) first deacon , you know , and now oliver -- your husband and my boyfriend . it 's like -- it 's like some sick obsession with her , you know ? bridget : i know . hope : god . i just ...

( sniffles ) ( sobs ) ( sniffles ) bridget : sweetheart , i know how devastating this is for you , especially because you and mom have always been so close . hope : it 's just how can a wife not know , you know , that the person she 's being intimate with is n't her husband ? bridget , how is that possible ? [ scene_break ] ridge : everyone was in masks . everyone was dressed alike . brooke was wearing hope 's necklace . oliver thought , brooke thought ... katie : oh . ridge : look , it was just a huge mistake . brooke never meant it to happen . katie : ( sighs ) so you 've forgiven her ? stephen : you believe your wife ? ridge : yeah , i do . katie : well , how can we help ? ridge : i 'm now looking for my wife . she went off to find hope . katie : well , i 'm sure that there is something that spencer publications can do to keep this scandal from spreading , right ? we can at least try . ridge : bill ? ( sighs ) thank you . katie : ( sighs ) stephen : there -- there is so much of this that i do n't understand , but i 'll tell you one thing . if stephanie tries to exploit this in her never - ending vendetta against my daughter , there will be hell to pay from me . katie : okay . [ scene_break ] stephanie : you tell everyone how much you love your children , and you abuse them . brooke : oh , my god . i have never abused my children . stephanie : emotional abuse is just as -- as devastating as physical abuse . look what you did to bridget . you destroyed her life . and rick -- he 's so full of anger and hate . and now what you 've done to hope -- god almighty , i shudder to think what you 're gon na do to r.j. well , i 'm not gon na give you the chance . brooke : what does that mean ? stephanie : that means you are going to take your self - centered life and get out of here and leave those children alone . get out of town , and do n't ever come back ! [ scene_break ] stephen : what in god 's name was steffy thinking ? ridge : she swears she did n't do it . she does n't know how this happened . katie : oh , please . stephen : i do n't buy that for a second . katie : neither do i . if steffy did n't do this , then who did ? [ scene_break ] bill : good . you 're here . you got my message . i want you to take care of a situation for me . justin : name it . bill : i 'm sure you heard what 's going on at forrester . i want you to use every resource at spencer publications ' disposal to squelch it and make su -- who is that , and what 's he doing in my office ? justin : this is liam cooper , one of spencer publications most enterprising new interns . liam : it 's a pleasure , sir . bill : i 'm sure it is . now leave . justin : well , actually , uh , uh , i 'd like him to stay , uh , if this is about what i think it 's about -- brooke logan forrester 's latest scandal . bill : and why would you want the intern to stay ? justin : liam here got ahold of steffy 's old laptop , and i used it to access her tribute to brooke and make some critical changes . bill : why the hell would you do that , justin ? brooke is my wife 's sister . justin : like you 've said many times before , business is business . i saw an opportunity to destabilize forrester creations . that 's the first step towards you getting the company and getting control of it again . that is what you want , right ? bill : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] hope : um , so that 's it . ( sighs ) all the gory details from that night , god , exposed at a press conference , as if what happened between mom and oliver was n't humiliating enough . bridget : ( sighs ) have you spoken to oliver ? hope : yeah . he says he thought it was me . you know , did n't realize till after . bridget : well , do you believe that , i mean , that he thought it was you ? hope : i want to . bridget : because you love him . hope : yeah . but , um ... that relationship , i mean , it can never be the same again . the damage is done . ( sighs ) bridget : just like your relationship with mom will never be the same again either . hope : yeah . ( sighs ) ( sniffles ) i mean , i - i know that what happened between you and ... ( sighs ) i mean , you were married . deacon was your husband . that affair ruined your marriage . bridget : yeah , it did . hope : ( sniffles ) bridget : but it gave us you . hope : ( sighs ) bridget : i 'm serious . listen to me . hope : ( sniffles ) bridget : it 's so hard to imagine right now 'cause your wounds are so fresh . hope : yeah . bridget : but just give yourself some time , a little bit of time , and you 'll have some perspective , and it 'll be so different . i know this sounds unbelievable , but i - i do kind of think that what mom told you is the truth . i think it probably happened the way she said it did . hope : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] brooke : ( sighs ) no , i 'm -- i 'm not leaving , stephanie . i 'm gon na stay here in l.a. , and i am gon na be here for my children . stephanie : ( laughs ) oh , that must send chills right down their spines , knowing you 'll be around to muck up their lives . brooke : oh , my god . for the last time , what happened at the graduation party was a mistake . stephanie : you know , you always say that every time you get caught with your panties down . `` it was a mistake . `` is that hope 's necklace ? oh . she must be finished with it then , which means that she 's finished with you , and she should be . you 're so twisted . i 'm sure she 's never going to have anything to do with you again , and i 'll make sure that 's the way it works . brooke : really ? ! i really do n't have much left to lose , stephanie . so you better stay the hell away from my daughter . i mean it ! or you will regret it . brooke : ( breathing heavily ) ( sighs ) ( sobs ) stephanie : i swear -- how did you get by security ? ridge : oh , mother , stop it . katie and stephen came by because they 're worried about brooke . stephanie : ( laughs ) they should be worried about her . katie : what does that mean ? stephanie : it means that even though my son ... ( sighs ) has forgiven her for the umpteenth time , her daughter is n't going to , and brooke knows it . ridge : you were with brooke ? where is she ? stephanie : well , we were in the showroom , but she left . i would n't if i were you . stephen : well , you 're not him , thank god , because ridge has a heart and compassion -- two things that you and your granddaughter steffy know nothing about . katie : i 'm gon na call bill and see if he 's having any luck . [ scene_break ] bill : what i want is an explanation . justin : i just gave you one , bill . ( cell phone rings ) ( ring ) justin : you gon na get that ? ( ring ) bill : do you think i do n't hear my own phone ringing , justin ? ( ring ) bill : if i wanted to answer my phone , i would answer it . i am much less interested in what is on the other side of that phone call than i am in you explaining yourself . i left you in charge . justin : yes . you counted on me to think like you think . you declared war on the forresters . you were looking for any opening to get control of that company again . so naturally , when steffy 's old computer fell into my lap , i moved on it . bill : i did not , however , declare war on the logans . by attacking brooke , you attacked katie and her entire family . and in case you need reminding , and you obviously do , that is my family now . justin : bill -- bill : you need to look at a situation from all the angles , justin . and you certainly should not make a decision of that magnitude without talking to me first . justin : the press conference happened at the spur of the moment . i had to move fast , bill . look , i like the logans , too . my son 's mother is a logan . i would n't do anything to hurt marcus or donna , but like i said -- bill : yeah , i know . business is business . justin : brooke logan forrester has been at the center of a number of scandals over the years . she survived all of them . there 's no reason to think she wo n't survive this one . all of it will blow over and go away eventually , but not before that company is thrown into chaos and turmoil , making it ripe for a takeover . bill : i want to talk to the kid ... alone . ( door opens ) ( door closes ) [ scene_break ] brooke : ( sniffles ) please ... please ... bring her back to me . ( sobs ) ( sobs ) ridge : yo , logan . brooke : ridge . ridge : i heard there was a damsel in distress . i thought maybe she could use a white knight . brooke : ( laughs ) ( laughs ) [ scene_break ] bill : so a lowly spencer intern lucks into steffy forrester 's old laptop and uses it to get himself noticed by top brass . liam : uh ... bill : gutsy move . liam : uh , thank you , sir . bill : i do n't think you want to thank me just yet . a word of warning -- this stays between you , justin and me . no one ever finds out how steffy 's tribute got embellished . is that clear ? liam : yeah , absolutely . bill : why are you still standing here ? liam : right . okay . [ scene_break ] stephanie : why -- why would i be surprised that the two of you would find a way to turn this back around on me and on steffy ? i mean , is n't it your sister who betrayed her own daughter ? katie : we know what brooke did , but for steffy to make it public is inexcusable . i mean , this is a tragic event . stephanie : the truth always comes out in things like this . stephen : it did n't have to this way , stephanie . stephanie : oh , please . katie : not like this . stephen : it could have been handled discretely and privately . steffy did it to get back at brooke . she did n't give a damn if she ruined an entire family or if a mother 's relationship with her daughter would never be the same again . [ scene_break ] hope : do you ever wonder what it would be like to have a mother who 's not in the limelight all the time , you know , one who -- who reads the tabloids in -- instead of being featured in them ? bridget : honey , mom has really done her best to try to shield us from all that . hope : yeah , but she still finds herself in these messes , you know what i mean ? bridget : i know . over and over again , she hurts the people that she loves the most . hope : why does she do that ? bridget : i 'm not sure . i really do n't know . but what i do know is that as inappropriate as it was , mom thought she was with ridge . hope : ( sighs ) bridget : she did not mean to hurt you . hope : ( sighs ) i want to believe that so badly . i do n't think i can . [ scene_break ] brooke : how did you find me here ? ridge : i followed you . brooke : ( laughs ) you did ? ridge : mother said she was with you in the showroom and then you left . i saw you head out of the parking lot , so i got kind of curious . tracked you all the way up here to the hollywood sign . brooke : i used to come here as a kid . ridge : we 're gon na find hope . brooke : i just do n't know if she 's ever going to want to look at me again . ridge : children forgive their parents many things , logan . brooke : ( sighs ) i do n't understand how steffy could be so cruel . ridge : she claims that that tribute was tampered with . brooke : do you believe her ? ridge : ( sighs ) too many things have happened . hmm . brooke : i just think of all the things that she 's done to hurt my daughter , especially when she announced the hope for the future line , and she had `` ho logan `` lit up right behind her . hope did n't deserve that . ridge : right now i 'm looking at the biggest `` ho `` in town . brooke : oh , my god , ridge . that 's how you see me now ? ridge : well , right now . brooke : ( laughs ) oh . ridge : ( laughs ) brooke : h - o . ridge : yeah . brooke : ( laughs ) ridge : at least you have n't lost your sense of humor . that 's good to know . brooke : oh .

( sniffles ) ( laughs ) ridge : logan , i love you .
the announcement is made to the public about brooke 's sexual escapade at her daughter 's graduation . brooke tells stephanie that she is not going to let her ruin her relationship with her daughter . stephanie shouts that she does n't have to do that . brooke did that all by herself and stephanie is not going to let hope be damaged goods . brooke just needs to pull up her panties and get out of town . she states that brooke is so twisted and hope will never have anything to do with her again . she will see to that ! ridge explains to stephen , katie and bill that it was a huge mistake and never meant to have happened . he has forgiven brooke . katie thinks there must be something spencer publications can do to keep this from spreading . stephen states that if stephanie is determined to use this as another vendetta against brooke , she will have hell to pay from him . bill tells justin that he wants to use every means available to spencer publications to squelch these rumors about brooke . justin has to admit his and liam 's part in the video . he thought it was something bill would want to help him get back the company . bridget tells hope that the wounds are so fresh now , but give it some time to give it a new perspective . bill is not happy and wants another explanation . he did not want to start war on the logans .. that is his family now . justin needs to look at the situation from all angles and should have checked it out first . justin says his son 's mother is a logan too and he would not do anything to hurt her , but the company is ripe for a takeover and business is business . bill wants to talk to liam alone .

( sighs ) she just went through a lot of things . she lost her brother . he committed suicide . her mother died not that long ago . she 's been through a heart transplant . bill : i know what katie 's been through . taylor : then why would you want to cause her any more pain ? you made a commitment , so honor it . i wo n't let katie go through this , i wo n't , not because of my daughter . steffy : ( mouthing words ) [ scene_break ] katie : you know , bill and i have both made mistakes . i think there have been times when he 's felt like i have n't been completely on his side . and i know that even though i thought i was doing the right thing , he resents me leaving last time . liam : hey , look , i mean , i - i love the guy , but my dad can not be the easiest person in the world to live with . ( chuckles ) i 'm sure you had good reason . katie : well , i thought i was handling it the only way i knew how , but looking back , i would n't do that again . sometimes you just have to stand your ground and fight it out . bill 's taught me that , and it 's a lesson i do n't intend to forget . hope : and it could n't have been easy with steffy waiting in the wings ready to pounce . katie : i 'm not worried about her . hope : nah , it 's obvious how much you two love each other . katie : we 've learned from our mistakes , and i think that we 're stronger and closer than ever before . hope : mmm - hmm . you know , besides my parents , i have never seen two people more committed to each other . katie : well , it 's easy to take what you have for granted . but i think that bill and i know how lucky we are to have found each other , and i 'm excited to see what the future holds . [ scene_break ] steffy : mom , you can not tell bill what to do . taylor : why ? because he 's going to do what he wants to do anyway ? steffy : mom , come on . taylor : i 'm not trying to attack you , bill . i 'm just trying to get through to you -- to the both of you . steffy : this is between bill and me . this is none of your business . taylor : oh , no , it became my business when i found the two of you upstairs in the bedroom . bill : all right , that was a mistake . taylor : yeah ? oh , you 've got that right . this whole thing is a mistake . you have a wife that loves you . she 's devoted to you . i know that firsthand from when you came to my office for marriage counseling . bill : i know how katie feels about me , and i know how i feel about her , and i do n't need 45 minutes in your office to tell me that . taylor : neither do i . it only took me five seconds to figure out she 's the kind of woman who will do anything she can to save her marriage , just like she proved last night by recommitting her vows to you . bill : i am determined to make this right . and whether you like it or not , taylor , i am going to make a life with your daughter . steffy : mom , just listen to me , please , okay ? bill does n't love katie the way he loves me . taylor : ( scoffs ) steffy : you of all people should know how that feels . you were married to whip . and , yeah , i - it worked out for a while , but both of you guys realized that you were still in love with dad , and so you did the right thing , and you ended your marriage . unfortunately , things did n't work out with you and dad , but things are gon na work out for bill and me . why ca n't you just have faith in me and not judge bill and me for loving each other ? taylor : no , no , no , no . steffy : we did n't plan it . it just happened . oh , my god . taylor : steffy , steffy , this has nothing at all to do with feelings . this is about the circumstances . the reality is -- the fact is he is married to someone else . bill , you are welcome to come here to my home and tell my daughter how much you love her and that you want to spend the rest of your life with her when and if you are single . otherwise , you are not welcome here as a married man . i wo n't allow it .

taylor rants that she does n't want to hear bill 's excuses . he did n't leave his wife like he said he would , and she is drawing the line in the sand right now . he blurts out that he had every intention of telling katie , but he walked into his house and one of the people gathered there was a minister . his wife had planned a renewal of their vows . now was not the time to tell katie that he was leaving . taylor laments that she realizes he has some feelings for steffy , but she will not be his little plaything . he tries to convince her that she is more than that ; he is in love with her . he does n't need 45 minutes in taylor 's office to know how he feels about his wife or steffy . steffy throws it in her face that taylor married whip and then they both realized she did not love him , but ridge . so she did the right thing and ended it . taylor tells them that bill can come there any time and tell her how much he loves steffy and wants to be with her as long as he is single . but as a married man , he is not welcome there ; she wo n't allow it . liam tells hope that just because they want to wait does n't mean they ca n't have fun . she thinks it is so romantic what bill and katie did in renewing their vows and getting a fresh start . katie walks into the office and is surprised that bill is n't there yet as he had this important board meeting . she is excited to see what the future holds . she is not worried about steffy constantly throwing herself at bill . hope is so happy that all the logan women are happy again .

[ laughs ] do you know how many times i 've heard those words come out of bill 's mouth ? i have spent years of my life listening to his lies and manipulations . i do n't want that life for you , brooke . aly : we need to find you a guy . ivy : well , as much as i would love that , i have zero time for dating right now . aly : so make time . ivy : you know , oliver seems like a nice guy . aly : he is . he 's amazing . we went through something recently , but we worked it out . ivy : all relationships , they 're never easy . aly : yeah , i 'm just now figuring that out . and oliver 's my first boyfriend , so i have n't had any experience . ivy : well , just be yourself . these things always find a way of working out . aly : it 's nice having someone close to my age around here . hope 's been really cool , but she 's always so busy . ivy : yeah , i have n't really got a chance to get to know her very well . she seems smart , and she 's very pretty . every bit a logan , i guess . aly : why do you say that ? ivy : well , she 's learnt from the master -- her mother , the famous brooke logan . aly : hope and brooke are very different . ivy : are they ? aly : you think they 're alike ? ivy : well , it 's just hope and wyatt are gon na be spending a lot of time together now . aly : yeah , but you heard liam . he 's fine with it . ivy : okay . must be nice having two guys fighting over you . i mean , as long as she 's not planning to torture them just like her mom did with your dad , uncle eric , ridge . look , i 'm australian , and where i 'm from , i mean , we 're pretty chilled out about this stuff , but there is appropriate behavior , and then there is brooke 's behavior . aly : true . but hope 's not like that . hope : you are making it very difficult for me to say no . wyatt : so do n't . hope , i 'm giving you a diamond , but it is nothing compared to what you 've given me . you 've given me love and a life and a job and a purpose . think of this as a reminder of all the great times that we 've had . this -- this is what we can accomplish together . this is the hope for the future diamond . it 's your diamond . it would be wrong for anyone else to have this . something this rare and magnificent needs to be owned by someone equally as unique and beautiful . it 's only right . the two most precious things that i have ever known should be together . hope : oh . [ sighs ] i ca n't . i ca n't . wyatt : [ groans ] okay . do it for the diamond . hope : [ laughs ] wyatt : do it for ricardo montemayor , may he rest in peace . hope : you are guilting me . you 're guilting me into it ! wyatt : yes , i am . i am . hope : you 're the worst . wyatt : i am terrible . hope : you are awful . you need to take this , i know . liam : hey . hope : hey . hi , babe . liam : how 's it going ? what are you guys -- what are you working on ? wyatt : uh ... aly : hope 's a good person . she has very strong morals . ivy : yeah , i 'm sure she does . aly : i mean , look at what she stands for . the hope for the future message -- it 's all about honesty and decency , respecting yourself , and staying true to who you are . no one does that better than hope . ivy : mm - hmm . aly : what ? you do n't agree ? ivy : no , i agree with the message . i think that 's great . but i think you 're maybe idealizing hope a little bit too much . aly : why ? ivy : i just -- i do n't think she 's living up to her own message . aly : what do you mean ? ivy : i 'm gon na show you something . i did n't mean to record any of it . i was just shooting that video for my mum . liam : ivy 's making this video for her `` mum , `` and i just made a brief appearance . wyatt : what 'd you do ? a little juggling , a little soft shoe ? liam : with this leg ? are you kidding me ? i said hi . all the talent i have to offer . has she gotten to you two yet ? wyatt : nope . i have managed to dodge that project thus far . liam : yeah . be warned -- she 's gon na get you on tape . by the way , apparently her mom -- huge fan of the three of us . she 's a big tabloid reader . hope : oh , god . wyatt : so i wonder who she 's rooting for -- you or moi ? hope : well , i think she 'll be sad to hear that there really is no more gossip because i 'm with liam . wyatt : yep . and i -- i 'm -- you know , i 'm all alone . liam : hey , buck up , little camper . you will always have your jewelry . ridge : brooke , why are you still wearing that ring ? take it off and kick him out . bill : how about you let her think for herself . ridge : we do n't want you here . i do n't want you near my son . bill : you think i 'd ever do anything to harm r.j. ? ridge : i do n't know where you draw the line . bill : oh , come on . brooke , i would give my life to protect r.j. and you . katie : well , you did n't have any problem putting r.j. 's father 's life in danger . bill : if i could go back and do things differently , i would . brooke : it 's too late , bill . you ca n't take it back . ridge : you heard her -- pack up and go . bill : i 'll go when brooke tells me to . i made the wrong move , but i flew halfway around the world to avoid something like this . brooke : you 're not blaming this on ridge . bill : no . but i 'm not saying that he 's devoid of blame , either . you knew who you were dealing with . you knew there 'd be payback . the difference is , i reacted spontaneously . it was on impulse . you planned the whole thing out . you flew to abu dhabi , you hunted us down , broke up the wedding , dragged brooke onto a helicopter against her will . yeah . i screwed up . but you ? you ai n't exactly squeaky clean , either , pal , including what you did today . ridge : i 'm sorry for interrupting . i ca n't listen to this stuff anymore . no one wants you here . go . get out . i do n't want you near my son . brooke does n't want you here . tell him -- tell him it 's over .
bill tells brooke that he screwed up . he should have been honest with her . he 's embarrassed to say he was scared . he never meant to hurt ridge . he never meant it to go this far . ridge says he means he never thought he 'd get caught . bill says ridge needed to be taught a lesson . he reacted impulsively . he tells brooke he is sorry and promises her that nothing like this will ever happen again . he wants her to say something . she asks why did he have to do this ? he says he had to punish ridge for taking her away . he wanted him to pay . she says ridge could have been killed and all bill was thinking about was himself . he almost killed r.j. 's father . he argues that she knows he would never intentionally hurt the father of her son . ridge says those are just empty , meaningless words . brooke can not trust him , she can not forgive him and she certainly can not marry him . ivy is outside on the rooftop still taking video on her phone . she comes across hope and wyatt just as hope hugs wyatt for showing her the diamond . ivy quickly puts it away and goes back inside . hope tells wyatt that she does n't know what to say . she says she is sorry . she just got carried away . he says it was just a hug ; they did n't break any rules . she ca n't believe ricardo left him the diamond and it 's really his . he says no , it 's hers now to keep forever . she keeps looking and gushing at it but says it is too much . he says the diamond belongs with her . it 's meant for her . it 's supposed to be in their lives . it 's worked wonders for them before and he thinks it will do it again . she says she would not feel right accepting this as ricardo gave it to him . he says because he trusted that he 'd know what to do with it . she reminds him that she is with liam now . he says he knows and he is not naive enough to think this will change anything . he just thinks it feels right and as far as he is concerned it has always belonged to her . he ca n't keep it and wear it , just not his style . they laugh about him giving it the justice that it deserves and he says only she can do that . aly tells liam that she admires his confidence . most guys would not want their girlfriend to work with their ex boyfriend . ivy slips in and hears this . liam says yeah well he and wyatt have a new understanding and he 's turned over a new leaf and is starting to respect liam 's relationship with her . aly says liam may trust wyatt but she thinks he is more like his dad than he realizes . liam says sure he will always be a little wary of wyatt but it was quinn who caused the damage and wyatt actually defended him . ivy asks if he is okay with him now . liam says yeah , he does not think he will be a problem with his and hope 's relationship . and he trusts her so he is okay with their working relationship . liam leaves and aly tells ivy that they have to find her a boyfriend . ivy says she will be busy and have no time to date . but she understands oliver is pretty nice . aly says yes tho they went through a rough patch lately but they worked it out . aly tells ivy it 's good to have someone around her own age . hope is cool but always so busy . ivy says she has n't had much chance to get to know her either .. but very pretty and every bit a logan . she 's learned from the master ; the great brooke logan . aly says hope and brooke are very different . ivy ca n't be sure , but it must be nice having two guys fighting over you like liam and wyatt unless she is planning to torture them just like brooke did with aly 's dad and uncle ridge and eric . there is appropriate behavior and then there is brooke 's behavior . aly assures her that hope is not like that . hope is a good person . just look at what her hftf message says about being honest and decent and staying true to yourself . no one does that better than hope . ivy says she does believe in the message but she thinks maybe aly is idealizing hope a little too much . she 's not sure she is living up to her own message . aly wonders why she said that . ivy says she has something to show her . she shows her the video and says she did not mean to take it . bill tells brooke that he was really scared but he had to come clean and he wanted her to hear it from him . dumping ridge in the water was the only way he could fight back ; the only way he could get brooke back . she wonders what he would have done if ridge had n't been found ; what bill would have done then . she knows when someone crosses him that he strikes back .hard and he does n't care about the consequences . and that scares her . he says he deeply regrets what he has done . katie laughs and says she wishes she could count the times that he had said that he would never do something again . she has spent years of hr life listening to his lies and manipulations and she does not want that for brooke .
ivy : i was there , steffy . i saw what happened . steffy : you do n't know what you 're talking about . ivy : aly 's death ? she did n't just fall and hit her head like you said . aly died because of you . [ scene_break ] liam : i still ca n't believe aly 's just ... gone . wyatt : i know . so sad . liam : you know who i really feel for is thorne . i mean , can you -- can you even imagine what he 's got to be going through right now ? wyatt : first he loses his wife , now his only child . it 's crazy . liam : i mean , that 's two accidents . that 's two tragic , horrific accidents . wyatt : i know . this must be hard on steffy , though . she must feel terrible . liam : oh , yeah , for sure . i mean , well , it 's devastating to the whole family , but i have to keep telling steffy , you know , it 's -- it 's not her fault . it 's not her fault . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] caroline : i ca n't even imagine what thorne is going through . ridge : he 's numb . caroline : he 's never gon na see his daughter again . could there possibly be anything worse than losing a child ? ridge : no . there 's nothing . nothing worse than that . caroline : i just wish that there was something that we could do for him , you know ? he 's all alone now . he does n't have anyone . ridge : he has us . he has his family . just got to help him , support him . [ scene_break ] caroline : hey . thomas . thomas : hope i 'm not interrupting . ridge : hey . how are you ? thomas : as well as i can be , all things considered . caroline : yeah . we were just talking about your uncle thorne . thomas : hmm . ridge : [ sighs ] everyone appreciated you being here . the family appreciated it . thomas : well , i feel horrible for uncle thorne . and steffy , being there that night . caroline : i really hope she does n't feel guilty . i mean , what happened to aly was not her fault . thomas : well , yeah . and everyone knows that . it 's still upsetting , though . i 'm just glad i could be here for steffy . caroline : so , does that mean that you are thinking of sticking around ? thomas : oh , i 'm here indefinitely . i 've decided to move back to los angeles . [ scene_break ] wyatt : did steffy tell you everything that happened that night ? liam : yeah . i mean , you know , as much as she can remember . wyatt : huh . it 's crazy how aly just stumbled and fell and that 's it . like , her life is over . liam : i know . it 's like a freak accident . wyatt : yeah . it appears that way . liam : you know what really makes me sad ? and i - i -- [ sighs ] i hate that i 'm saying this . wyatt : what ? liam : all of this could have been avoided if aly did n't go nuts on steffy . i mean , we -- we 'd all be here right now , you know ? we 'd be celebrating the success of the fashion show , and instead , aly 's gone . she 's gone , and steffy has to live with the memories of this . wyatt : yeah , it 's probably gon na haunt her for the rest of her life . liam : i 'm telling you , man , i - i ca n't help but worry about steffy . wyatt : yeah . i 'm worried about her , too . [ scene_break ] ivy : ugh , just be straight with me , steffy . i saw the whole thing . steffy : obviously you did n't , or you would n't be questioning me . ivy : i 'm not asking you anything . i know exactly what happened . steffy : okay . okay . this has been an emotional last few days . you and aly were close , and i know this is painful for you , but this is painful for all of us . she was my cousin , too . you honestly believe that i wanted this ? ivy : no , i do n't think you woke up that morning wishing she would die . but that 's what happened . and it was only the two of you on the side of the road . steffy : oh , my god . wait , so , what are you implying ? ivy : [ scoffs ] steffy : that i am responsible for what happened to aly ? ivy : that 's exactly what i 'm saying . [ scene_break ] ridge : have you thought this through , weighed the pros and cons , or ... ? thomas : [ chuckles ] there are no cons . me moving back to l.a. is best for everyone , okay ? how can you not agree with that ? ridge : i 'm not saying i do n't agree . it just seems a little sudden . thomas : well , it 's not like i just decided five minutes ago , okay ? this has been on my mind for a while . ridge : and you do n't think you should have maybe told someone about it ? caroline : okay . your dad is just ... wanting to make sure that you 're making the right decision . that 's all . thomas : well , paris was great while it lasted . but this -- this has always been my home . ridge : yeah , no . this is nice . thomas : mm - hmm . ridge : so , what ? you 're just gon na abandon your job ? thomas : well , i 'm not gon na leave them high and dry . i 've got it covered . ridge : you 've got it covered . good . well , we do n't have any executive positions for you here . thomas : okay . dad , i 'm not looking for an executive position . i want to join the design team . [ scene_break ] liam : why would you be worried ? wyatt : i do n't know . why would n't i be worried ? steffy 's a friend . she 's going through a tough time . liam : right , right , right , yeah . no , that 's cool . that 's cool of you to be concerned . i mean , for the record , steffy does have me to lean on . wyatt : i know . are you seriously implying right now that i would hit on steffy ? liam : i do n't -- i do n't know . wyatt : and take advantage of this horrific situation ? seriously ? liam : okay . wyatt : give me a little credit here , okay ? liam : i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . wyatt : god , what is wrong with you ? liam : i 'm sorry . you 'd never do that . wyatt : wow . liam : i do n't think you would ever do that . wyatt : come on . liam : look , this is a stressful situation for everybody . i do n't know how to handle this any more than anybody else . wyatt : i know , so why do n't you put yourself in steffy 's shoes ? i mean , the guilt , the culpability , the regret -- i mean , she 's probably thinking a lot of things right now . wyatt : what are you even -- what are you talking about ? nobody 's blaming steffy . wyatt : does n't seem that way right now . but you never know . things might change . liam : wh -- why would things change ? wyatt : because no one has gotten a chance to process the whole situation , liam . we were n't there . you and i were n't there . they were there . liam : okay , all right . you 're right . wyatt : so the truth could be difficult to accept . liam : yes , it 's absolutely tragic . we all wish it never happened , but there 's one thing that i am sure about , and that is that this is not steffy 's fault . she has nothing -- nothing -- to feel guilty about . wyatt : yeah . [ scene_break ] ivy : i 'm not trying to fight with you , steffy . i 'm just trying to get you to admit the truth . steffy : truth ? the truth is , aly went ballistic . she went crazy . i mean , you saw the photos in her closet . there was a photo maya with an `` x `` crossed out and a nail in my head . steffy : i 'm not saying she was n't struggling . that is not my point . steffy : she was out for revenge . she jammed a nail in my tire so i would veer off the road . and then she tried to hit me with her car , and at the last minute , she stopped , and i -- i grabbed her out of the car , and then she tried to attack me . my god . she was ill , ivy . and i do n't -- i do n't want to talk bad about her , okay ? but she completely lost her sanity . ivy : she was clearly very unwell , but that does n't explain your role in her death . steffy : my `` role `` ? ivy : [ scoffs ] steffy : i was trying to defend myself . she attacked me . and then she -- she hit her head on a rock , and ... and now she 's dead . ivy : what did you think would happen ? steffy : what is that supposed to mean ? ivy : so , what ? she just -- she fell back , and she died ? how many people trip over themselves every day , steffy , and die ? she 's a healthy young woman . you do n't just lose your footing and then die . that 's what you 're saying . is that your story ? because that 's what you told police . so is that the truth ? is it not possible that your memory 's just a little fuzzy , and you 've distorted reality ? steffy : okay , i realize that you do n't like me , but this is an all - time low . using aly 's death to push my buttons ? ivy : oh , my -- steffy : no , i did nothing wrong , and i -- i do n't need to defend myself to you . oh , my ... liam : hey . everything okay ? steffy : yeah , no , no , it 's -- it 's -- it 's nothing . um ... ivy and i were just having a little disagreement . it 's -- it 's ... liam : oh . oh . um ... all right , maybe ivy and i should ... talk . steffy : no , no , not right -- i do n't think it 's a good time . ivy : no , it 's fine . it 's okay . wyatt : um ... why do n't you and i just get some air ? steffy : yeah . that 's a good idea . ivy : so what do you want to talk to me about ? [ scene_break ] ridge : so you want to be a designer now ? thomas : do n't act so shocked , dad . you know more than anyone that i 've always been passionate about designing . ridge : until this very moment , i thought you were pretty happy being an executive . thomas : crunching numbers at international ? seriously ? caroline : well , everyone says that you 're so excellent at your job . thomas : that was me taking one for the team . you know , paying my dues , learning another aspect of the business . yeah . which was tolerable , for a while . but it 's time for something different . ridge : something different . you think you can just walk in here and be part of a design team ? the world does n't work that way , son . thomas : hmm . let 's not forget that i backed you in the takeover , okay ? i might only have 5 % , but technically , i 'm still a shareholder . and i 'm a designer . my taboo line was a huge moneymaker . ridge : that 's long time ago . thomas : since then , i 've been honing and fine - tuning my craft every single day . caroline : ridge and i are well into the spring line . thomas : and i 've seen your work . it 's pretty good . but i think you guys will be pleased with what i have to offer . so , what do you say ? [ scene_break ] wyatt : it 's kind of weird . what do you think liam wants to discuss with ivy ? steffy : it 's not my place to say . wyatt : no . he 's dropping the bomb on her right now , is n't he ? liam is breaking up with ivy ? [ scene_break ] liam : i do n't know what to say . i do n't know how to do this . um ... i care so much about you , and i want to be honorable here . you are wonderful . ivy : oh , my god . are you -- are you serious -- are you doing this right now ? are you seriously doing this right now ? liam : i -- you were -- ivy : at my cousin 's memorial , liam ? can you -- can you not see the flowers and the photos ? this is how you want to do this ? liam : the timing could n't be worse , i know that . ivy : you know what ? just say it . just come out and say it -- you want to be with steffy . i mean , it 's not like i 'm gon na be surprised . you 've been honest with your feelings about her from the start , but a little part of me ca n't help but feel a bit betrayed . liam : do n't blame you . ivy : gosh , you just -- she was just trying to get between us . do n't you see that ? she was relentless . you finally gave in , huh ? liam : it 's more complex than that . ivy : oh , come on . liam : steffy and i ... we 've finally been given another chance , and ... i owe it to both of us to take it . ivy , i 'm so sorry -- ivy : do n't -- do n't touch me ! liam : okay . okay . ivy : i mean , what was i to you , liam ? was i just a conquest ? something to do ? something to just fill in your time while steffy was away ? is that it ? liam : absolutely not , ivy . i loved you . i loved you . ivy : do n't do that ! do n't say another word . if you want to be with steffy , a woman with no moral center and no conscience , then good luck with that . [ scene_break ] thomas : any room for me on your team ? caroline : well , it 's something we can certainly discuss . ridge : does your grandfather know about this ? thomas : dad , you 're ceo now . you 're calling the shots . okay ? but if i 'm a betting man , i predict granddad will be thrilled . look , you 're gon na be tied up running this place . lots of demands , people pulling on you left and right ... another forrester on the design team makes sense . come on . i wo n't let you down . so , what 's it gon na be ? am i in ? ridge : you 're gon na have to work hard , earn your stripes like everybody else . thomas : would n't have it any other way . ridge : fine . let me see your stuff . [ scene_break ] liam : i feel like such a jerk . steffy : it had to be done . ivy needed to know . liam : yeah . i mean , i -- i did n't want to string her along , and ... i tried to hold off 'cause of the aly thing , but ... still , breaking up with somebody at a funeral is ... steffy : yeah , it was n't ideal . liam : i could feel the tension when i walked into the room , you know ? it seemed pretty clear that that 's what you guys were already talking about , and i thought ... she should hear it from me right now . it seemed like the respectful thing to do . [ scoffs ] i was wrong . i miscalculated . she was not happy . steffy : she was hurt . it 's understandable . liam : i know , but ... it still got ... pretty intense there at the end , and she was ... saying some things about you and your character and -- and ... you know what ? it does n't matter , it does n't matter . i know that you 're the best decision for my life . and i could n't be more optimistic about our future . [ scene_break ] ivy : the day of my cousin 's memorial liam decides to have the talk ? wyatt : i am so sorry that he did this to you today -- especially today , of all days . what the hell is wrong with him ? you deserve better , ivy . ivy : i mean , i 'll live , i 'll survive . aly 's the one who 's not here today because of steffy . wyatt : did she admit anything ? ivy : mnh - mnh . i kept pushing . she would n't budge . she just kept lying and lying . she did n't even show an ounce of remorse for killing aly . i mean , it 's crazy ! i have -- i have the video . i have the proof . god , just -- aly was just -- she was such a good person , you know ? and she was a loyal and sensitive friend . she had so much life in her . i ca n't ... i know she got judgmental and a little withdrawn , but she was in pain . wyatt : yeah . ivy : she was in a lot of pain . she was struggling . we all knew that . i just -- i wish i -- i should 've just done more . wyatt : no , hey . no , no , no , no , no . there is nothing more than any of us could 've done for her , ivy . we -- we had no idea how broken she 'd become . ivy : well , it does n't justify steffy hitting her with a tire iron and then lying to her father and the police about it , wyatt . wyatt : i know , and i know you 're hurting right now , and justice is what you want . but no one can see this video . do you understand ? it is way too dangerous . [ scene_break ] [ ringtone plays ] [ steffy 's flashback ] aly : get away ! give me that . [ present time ] steffy : [ sighs ] steffy hears ivy 's voice : it was n't an accident , it was n't an accident , it was n't an accident , it was n't an accident .
aly confronts steffy and says she does not think the accident happened like steffy says . she was responsible for what happened to aly . wyatt and liam discuss how tragic this is for thorne to lose his wife and now his only daughter . liam says he is concerned about steffy too . he just has to keep telling her this was not her fault . caroline and ridge also feel for thorne but vow they will be there for him as a family . thomas walks in and does not want to interrupt but sees them hugging . he too wants to be there for his uncle thorn and says he has decided to give up international and be back here in l.a. now . ridge 's response is lukewarm and wonders if thomas has given this enough thought . there is not an executive position open here at fc . thomas assures him that he is not interested in that . he wants to be part of the designing team . caroline and ridge exchange quick glances . wyatt gets the feeling that liam is saying wyatt would hit on steffy now that she is in these circumstances and needs their support . liam assures him that he will be there for her .and deep down he knows wyatt would not do that . ivy keeps saying she saw the whole thing , but steffy says she did n't or she would not be questioning her or saying she caused it . ivy says there were only two people on the side of the road and now one of them is dead . steffy reminds ivy that this was aly 's revenge . she made the hate board , she drove a nail in steffy 's ' tire and then followed her and ran her off the road . she tried to hit her with the car and attacked her several times . all she did was try to defend herself . the guys come in and steffy says it is just a minor disagreement . liam takes ivy aside and wants to talk to her and that leaves wyatt with steffy . it 's awkward but he says he thinks liam is dropping the bomb and breaking up with ivy now .
bill : sun 's rising . we 'll be on the ground soon . brooke : in monte carlo ! bill : oui , ma chérie . sally : this was the most awesome plane ride ever . thomas : yeah ? you think ? sally : yes , mr. oh so casual about private jets . it is a whole different world up here . thomas : hmm . sally : but i guess it 's your world , so i 'm gon na have to grit my teeth and get used to it . katie : we have a 95 % positive response to the press reception . wyatt : excellent . yeah , and the spencer summit site has actually gained more traffic this year , thanks to the whole forrester - spectra showdown . katie : this is gon na be so much fun . wyatt : it kind of already is . bill : well , i missed the summit last year , but i am back and i 'm pumped . brooke : it 's gon na be bigger and better than ever . bill : mm , me or the summit ? brooke : mm , my money 's on both . bill : you know , there is one thing i wished i pushed hard on . brooke : what 's that ? bill : well , i should have insisted that caroline join us . because once she 's back in new york ... well , who knows when we 're going to see her again . quinn : oh , come on . answer me . please , eric . [ sighs ] where are you ? eric ? [ knocks on door ] eric : what 's all this ? sheila : well , i tried to remember the last time you had a decent meal , and i drew a blank , so i thought i would just take care of that . may i come in ? um , i do n't have to stay . i 'll just set it up . i remembered -- you like sea bass . that 's what i got . eric : yeah . eric : sheila , i appreciate the effort , but i really do n't have much of an appetite . sheila : i expected you to say that , but you 've got to eat something , eric . eric : yeah . it smells good . sheila : then come on . sit down . eric : well , are n't you gon na eat ? sheila : i 'll take mine back to the room . eric : well , you do n't -- you do n't have to do that . sheila : [ sighs ] i do n't -- i do n't want to feel like i 'm imposing . eric : since when do you not want to impose ? come on . sit down . sheila : [ laughs ] quinn : hi . i thought that -- ridge : i 'm sorry . you thought it was dad . i get it . quinn : every sound i hear , my heart leaps , but it 's never eric . when is he coming home ? ridge : i do n't know . quinn : [ sighs ] maybe we should hire a private investigator . ridge : that 's not necessary . quinn : no , that have ways of finding people that we never even thought of , and i 'm trying to respect his wishes ... ridge : quinn . quinn . quinn ! i saw him . quinn : what ? ridge : i know where he is . steffy : [ sighs ] lots to pull off in the next 24 hours . wyatt : katie and i are ready . katie : well , as far as forrester is concerned . i set up some interviews with maya since she 's already there with rick , and eva will assist on that . and nicole and zende are doing inventory on the collection . steffy : great . all right . i wonder if they 're prepared . sally : uh , excuse me , are you talking about us ? steffy : oh , i 'm just saying we 're gon na wipe the floor with your fashion house . sally : whatever , princess , 'cause you 're the one that 's going down . bill : wow . there is a lot of interest in the fashion showdown . brooke : you surprised ? bill : not really . not when you consider there will be a lot of good - looking people from spectra and forrester struttin ' down the runway half - naked . brooke : [ giggles ] you could get on in that , you know ... close out the spencer summit in your sexy swim trunks . bill : that would shut down the show . but , uh , no . i think i 'll just reserve those trunks for the spa on the stella maris . brooke : mmm . bill : of course , i wo n't need the trunks there , will i ? brooke : mmm . bill : mnh - mnh . sheila : well , in the past , i guess you could have called me impulse - driven . eric : that would be accurate . sheila : [ laughs ] you know what , when i was in prison , i really settled down and i started taking a hard look at myself to see if there was anything good , anything at all left in me . and to my surprise , there was a better person in there just longing to get out . all she needed was a little bit of ... of , um , inspiration and some encouragement . and i had a lot of time to work on that , and the new sheila was born . eric : what was the most surprising thing you learned ? sheila : i think ... that i can -- i can have pure love , a pure love without any complications or expectations . i can give love freely without expecting anything in return . eric : it 's a lovely insight . sheila : you know , another thing that i thought of when i was there was about us . yeah , the really wonderful times that we shared together . and i 'm so thankful to be here and have the opportunity to regain your -- your trust and your belief . eric : well , you have been painfully honest with me since you came back . i 'm grateful for that . sheila : and i 'm glad . i 'm glad because ... the hard work -- the hard work that i did on myself ... i did that so that i could come back here and prove to you that you were n't wrong to love me . quinn : you saw eric ? you know where he is ? where ? you have to tell me , ridge ! tell me ! ridge : he 's at a hotel . quinn : which one ? is -- is he all right ? ridge : depends on your definition of `` all right , `` but , yeah , i think he 's fine . quinn : is he alone ? ridge : sheila 's with him . quinn : no ! ridge : no , it 's not -- no , she 's got her own room . it 's not what you think . quinn : well ... i mean , how -- how did you find him ? did he finally reach out to you ? ridge : steffy told me . quinn : steffy ? ridge : steffy and liam -- apparently , they tracked his phone . anyway , he is in pain . he feels betrayed . quinn : i have to talk to him . ridge : no , no , no . hey , wait . quinn : no ! ridge : he does n't want to see you . bill : so , listen , we have a lot of work to do ahead of incorporating the fashion challenge into my summit . but it 's gon na be well worth it . we 're gon na see some great designs , we 're gon na have fun , and , most importantly , we 're going to raise much - needed funds for spencer 's favorite charities . wyatt : okay , you 're starting to sound a lot like liam right now . bill : hey , hey , hey , hey ! i 'm a charitable person when it 's a cause that i believe in . look , wyatt , there are a lot of people suffering in the world , people in need . and it happens it is incumbent upon all of us to do what we can to ease their burden . and the charities that we have joined forces with will do just that . brooke : wow . i did n't know you felt so passionately about that . bill : well , i do . it 's the right thing . katie : hear , hear ! bill : now let 's move along . wyatt , i want to toast you . wyatt : me ? bill : absolutely . you 've put a tremendous amount of effort into incorporating the fashion challenge into the summit . brooke : he would n't have been able to do that with my sister , so i want to toast katie . bill : absolutely . wyatt : yeah . this is true . she 's right . two heads are better than one . katie : well , i , um -- i think we should , you know , not congratulate ourselves too soon . um , you know , i do n't want to jinx anything . wyatt : [ chuckles ] all right , well , uh , how about this for a toast ? to a kickass showdown and a lot of fun on the side . steffy : i 'll drink to that . bill : [ laughs ] katie : that sounds good to me . thomas : cheers . thomas : bill . are you -- are you sure that caroline is dying ? bill : i 'm sure , thomas . thomas : [ stammering ] it -- it just -- it does n't -- it does n't make sense . i - i do n't know what to think about all of this . bill : well , you better figure it out . better think long and hard about your next move . steffy : so , are you , uh , prepared to be embarrassed again ? sally : uh , i do n't think so . steffy : you really think spectra fashions can compete with forrester ? sally : yes . you will see . thomas : [ clears throat ] is this woman bothering you ? steffy : i 'm just giving your girlfriend a friendly warning . thomas : uh - huh . steffy : you can back out anytime you want ! thomas : bye ... hey . you okay ?

thomas : no . sally : okay . well , you just seem really in your head . thomas : there 's just a lot to think about . bill : just got word we 're going to be landing soon . but before we do , uh , there 's something i 'd like to say . while i recognize that the fashion challenge pits sister against brother , it 's in the spirit of healthy competition . at heart , we 're all family . the forresters , the logans , the spencers ... even you . there is , uh , mutual history , and there is someone that is the very physical embodiment of what i 'm discussing -- that 's douglas , thomas ' son with my niece caroline . so while we may occasionally stray from the fold , we 're family , and family always comes first . ridge : i 'm sorry . i know it hurts to hear that . quinn : i 'm not giving up on my marriage . i love eric more than anything ! i 'm not gon na just let go ! ridge : well , i 'm not gon na tell you where he is . quinn : ridge ! ridge : you 'd run right to him . quinn : of course i would ! ridge : and then what ?

eric : about my wife and my son having an affair behind my back ? no . the very words come out of my mouth , and my brain recoils . i believed in her wholeheartedly . and i told anybody who would listen how committed she was to me , how loyal , and then she does this , and with ridge ? and what 's his excuse ? he could n't help himself ? [ scoffs ] i 've been such a fool . such a fool . sheila : eric , you did nothing wrong . loving your wife and your son and trusting them does not make you a fool . it makes them bad people for betraying your trust . god , you know that better than i do . eric : do n't do that , sheila . let 's not dredge up our past , all right ? sheila : yeah , well , no one would like to leave that behind more than me . and it gives me chills when i think of the woman that i used to be . i did n't deserve a wonderful man like you , eric , and you know what makes you wonderful ? your empathy . your ability to forgive . and to think that you would let me in again close enough to kiss me ... eric : now , wait , hold on . sheila , look , i did n't kiss you . sheila : allowed me to kiss you . eric : yeah . sheila : that was a big deal . i never thought i 'd have that sensation again , with your lips on mine . and that is the most wonderful feeling in the world . you have no idea the gift that you gave me . eric : sheila . i 'm tired . sheila : yeah , of course . i 'll be leaving , then . eric : uh , thank you . thanks -- thanks for bringing the meal . i appreciate that . sheila : it was my pleasure . you call me if you need anything else . eric : i do n't want you to leave this house . i do n't want you to leave my side . or my bed . marry me . whoo ! bill : welcome to monaco , everybody . home of the spencer challenge , and if that was n't enough , you have the distinct honor and pleasure of arriving with none other than `` dollar bill `` himself . katie : oh , wow . brooke : are n't we lucky ? bill : well , actually , i 'm the lucky one . brooke : mm . bill : all right , uh , listen . we have a lot to accomplish before tomorrow 's fashion challenge . before we get cracking , i just want to say thank you . you 're going to raise a lot of money for charity . let 's shoot for $ 1 million . steffy : cool . brooke : so wonderful to be here , in paradise , back in monte carlo . bill : mm - hmm . we made a lot of memories here . brooke : yes , we did . zende : we plan on making some memories of our own . bill : hey , zende , what 's up ? brooke : how 's it going ? zende : great . great . everything 's arrived and ready for tomorrow . nicole : zende 's first fashion show as a designer ! brooke : [ laughs ] nicole : i ca n't wait . sally : okay , bucko . this ai n't too shabby . thomas : [ chuckles ] sally : look at all these boats ! excuse me , yachts . thomas : uh , yeah . yeah . sally : i ca n't believe this . this is gon na give spectra great press . thomas : mm - hmm . sally : we have got to win this thing , pull off the upset of the century . thomas : well , babe , if anybody can do it , it 's us . sally : [ giggles ] wyatt : well , we 're here . katie : yes , we are . and all the supplies have arrived . by this time tomorrow , this whole place will be transformed into a fashion palace . wyatt : mm , i 'm thinking all - nighter . katie : yeah , probably . wyatt : [ chuckles ] yeah . eva : hey , guys . katie : hi ! eva , thank you so much for all the work you 've done pre - production- wise . it 's amazing . thank you . eva : of course . thank you . and anything you guys need , i 'm at your service . steffy : listen , everybody ! come on in ! thomas : okay . let 's go . steffy : this is where it 's going down ! forrester has been challenged , and that just guarantees we 're gon na bring our a - game . thomas , sally ... you wanted it . now you got it . the forrester - spectra showdown is on . may the best fashion house win . ouh ouh ouh [ cheering ] la la la oooooo la la la c'est un réflexe robotique pas de panique , c'est moi , mannix c'est toi , mannix ?

[ indistinct chatter ] bill : i hate the waiting , not knowing . brooke : well , steffy is strong , both mentally and physically , and she has a beautiful little girl to live for . she 's survived a motorcycle accident before , bill . she will get through this . bill : she has to . ridge : how can you be in a hospital bed ? you were fine . you got ta wake up , steffy . penny : oh , my god . i ca n't believe flo did that ! sally : you can imagine my surprise , and wyatt 's . penny : how was she even able to write that message ? right , she pushed you and knocked you out . sally : for like two seconds ! but i guess that 's all she needed for her devious plan . penny : wyatt must have flipped when he saw that . sally : he just made a beeline out of here . and that 's just the beginning . he 's gon na flip when he finds out that i 've been lying to him . wyatt : i - i ca n't have heard you right . flo : sally 's not dying , wyatt . she 's not even sick . penny : so wyatt saw flo 's sos , but he still does n't know that you 've been lying ? sally : i was gon na tell him the truth , all of it . but the second he found out where flo was , he was gone . my guess is she 's telling him everything right now as we speak . wyatt : you 're sure about this ? flo : sally admitted it . wyatt : after all this time , like , preparing and bracing ourselves , just to find out that she 's not actually ... like , thank god . i ca n't tell you how many times i have been praying just to hear those words , that sally 's not dying . ridge : you 're gon na be okay , 'cause nothing else is acceptable . you have a whole life ahead of you , a daughter to raise , you know she needs you . i need you . i ca n't do this without you . so please open your eyes and come back to me . come back to your dad . hey , doctor , um ... finnegan , right ? is there any news ? dr. finnegan : still waiting on the test results . but , um , in the meantime , i need to examine her . ridge : hey ... i 'll be right outside , okay ? brooke : bill , i realize this is all very upsetting , but you seem ... i do n't know ... are you okay ? bill : am i okay ? am i okay ? i 'm not the one lying in a hospital bed . i would damn sure be a better choice than steffy . just a little more time . brooke : what did you say ? how is she ? ridge : no change . doctor 's in there now . still have n't wrapped my head around it . how does that happen ? any idea ? you ? why is my daughter stuck in a hospital bed ? bill : it was an accident . a terrible accident . now you can make any morning of the week sally : i wanted to convince wyatt that flo was fine , that nobody had hurt her , and that i just wanted one more night with him . but he was n't interested in anything that i had to say . penny : this is what i was worried about . now comes the fallout . i 'm probably gon na lose the medical license that i never wanted and disgrace my parents . and unfortunately for you , it 's gon na bring wyatt and flo even closer together . sally : i just keep seeing wyatt 's face , the love and concern he had for flo . i 'm just trying to remember if he ever looked at me that way . penny : i 'm sure he did . you did n't imagine the love . you may be a whack job , but you 're not delusional . sally : thanks . penny : i meant it in a good way . sally : you should have seen how fast wyatt ran out of here . it is very , very clear that wyatt is solely in love with flo . wyatt : and you 're sure about this ? like , there 's no way that you could 've gotten this wrong ? flo : no , there 's -- there 's no way that i 'm wrong about this . sally is n't dying . wyatt : i mean , that 's fantastic . like , i always said that it did n't seem fair or right that sally 's life be cut so short , but ... wait a minute , you ... flo : yeah . wyatt : you said that she was lying . flo : she 's been lying about every single part of this . wyatt : i -- i do n't -- i do n't understand . um ... flo : yeah , i had a hard time understanding at first , too , but think about it . what was your relationship with her before she became `` terminally ill `` ? wyatt : i mean , there -- there was no relationship . like , i ended things with her and then i got back together with you . flo : exactly . and then after she became `` terminally ill `` ? wyatt : we insisted on her ... moving back in with me . flo : she came up with this entire crazy plan because she wanted to get back with you . this whole thing is because she had some misguided love for you . brooke : i did n't realize steffy was still riding her motorcycle . ridge : maybe that 's it . maybe she just did n't have practice and ... she did n't have balance anymore . maybe that 's what happened . bill : i can shed some light on that . ridge : what does that mean ? det . sanchez : mr. and mrs . forrester . brooke : detective sanchez . det . sanchez : i 'm sorry to hear about steffy . ridge : are you here about her accident ? det . sanchez : yeah . actually , i was , uh , hoping to speak to mr . spencer . i 'd like to ask you a few questions . bill : go ahead . i 've got nothing to hide . brooke : what 's going on here ? det . sanchez : i think mr . spencer can tell us exactly what happened to steffy . ridge : what do you know , spencer ? what do you know about what happened to steffy ? penny : what are you gon na do now ? sally : i do n't know . but i ca n't leave it to flo to tell my story . wyatt has to hear it from me . i need to make him understand if that 's even possible . i have to try . wyatt : this -- this is insane . like , i - i - i ca n't even wrap my head around this . she should -- sally was using a walker ! flo : it was fake . wyatt : she -- she looked like a ghost , flo . she was getting more pale by the day . flo : she was using makeup . wyatt : what ? how -- how did you find this out ? flo : i do n't know . none of it sat well with me . it all just seemed a little off , you know ? and i could n't shake it , so , i went to see her doctor , dr . escobar ... wyatt : dr. escobar , yeah , you said she was acting weird aboutthis whole thing , too . flo : yeah , she was , she was just -- she kept hiding behind doctor - patient confidentiality , which i get , of course , and i understand that , but , i was never asking anything improper or out of line . wyatt : right . flo : and then , i saw that design sketch on her desk , and the whole thing just made me really suspicious . i mean , i brought up to her that sally 's a designer , and she got really weird about it and did n't want to talk about it and just brushed me off . so when i went and saw her that second time , she left the room for a few minutes and i looked at sally 's medical records . it 's just stress . all she has is stress . so i wanted to make sure that what i saw was true , so i wanted to test sally a little bit , so i went to your place knowing that she was afraid of snakes . wyatt : terrified , yeah . what did you do ? flo : nothing crazy . i just -- i had this rubber snake and i put it on the floor ... sally : [ shrieks ] flo : ... just to see how she would react when she saw it , just to see if she was gon na be still dying when she saw it . wyatt : okay . flo : and when she did , she could n't throw her walker away fast enough . she was running around the room jumping all over the furniture . it was clear that her physical condition was completely fine . so i took a closer look , and i wiped her face , and i smudged off all the makeup that she was using to make herself look sick . wyatt : are you kidding me ? flo : and even after all that , she was still making up all these crazy excuses that i knew were complete nonsense . and then she finally admitted everything to me . i knew you were on your way over , so i went to text you , and that 's when dr . escobar arrived , saw what i was doing , and hit me over the head , knocked me out , and next thing i knew , i woke up here , tied up . wyatt : flo , that -- this is -- this is so unbelievable , i ca n't -- flo : i know . wyatt : so ... sally basically admitted that she -- she came up with this whole scheme just to get me back . flo : mm - hmm . because in her mind , you two would still be together if it was n't for me coming in and stealing you away . she said that you two were still in love , and all she needed was a little bit of time to convince you that you guys were still in love . and then , when everything went haywire and her plan went crazy and she ended up kidnapping me , she had one crazy last idea to try to get pregnant by you 'cause she wanted to be tied to you forever . ridge : spencer , talk to me . why is my daughter in a hospital bed , and why the hell are you out here ? det . sanchez : according to the emts , you were at the scene when they arrived . is that true ? bill : it 's true . i called 911 . i gave them all my information . ridge : all right , so , you saw the accident . tell me . bill : i was just about to when detective sanchez got here . i was with katie , um ... i was apologizing for ... for what happened , and i was hoping that she could forgive me . she couldn't . ridge : can you please get to the point ? bill : i decided that i would go to the -- to the cliff house and , uh , spend some time with my granddaughter . i was just driving along . and all of a sudden she just -- she just came out of nowhere . [ engine revving ] and i hit the brakes ... [ brakes squealing ] we collided . the sound was ... it just happened so fast . i -- i could n't react , ridge . if i could have done anything different , i would have . i 'm sorry . to be honest ... a little dust ? flo : it 's just so crazy realizing the scope of sally 's lie . this whole time she 's been telling us t what she wanted , and she played into it at every single turn . it 's gross . wyatt : i 'm having a hard time believing that sally 's capable of something like this , flo . flo : that 's because you always see the best of her . you see what she wants you to see . you did n't know that there was a different side of her because you 've never seen it . her other side is manipulative , and deceptive and -- wyatt : okay , okay , okay . we 'll deal with sally when the time comes . i - i just -- right now , i want to know that you 're okay . flo : i am . thanks to you . wyatt : i mean , when i saw you wrote `` help me `` on sally , i did n't know what to think . like , my mind was just going . i -- i could n't imagine what you were going through . i just -- i knew that i had to get to you . flo : and you did . i love you so much , wyatt . wyatt : i love you , too . you want to get out of here ? flo : yes , please . wyatt : i know what you did . i know the whole story , sally . sally : you could n't possibly . not till you 've heard it from me . wyatt : i know that you do n't have a terminal disease like you said you did . and on the one hand , i am so grateful to hear that . every time that i told you that i could n't lose you , that i could n't imagine a life without you , i meant that . like , do you have any idea what it feels like to have to go through life knowing that you only have a couple of weeks left to live ? that every time i came home , it was like i - i was supposedly watching you deteriorate , only to find out it was a lie . the sally that i knew and loved would never have done something so callous , so calculated , to the people that cared about her . how could you lie to me ? how could you lie to us ? and make everyone believe that you were dying ? ridge : it was you ? you plowed your car into my daughter 's motorcycle ? bill : it was n't like that . come on , ridge , even you know i would never do anything to hurt steffy . i love her ! i wish i could change places with her right now ! and i wish i 'd never gotten in my damn car ! ridge : it 's never enough for you , is it ? that 's who you are . you destroy lives . you destroy relationships . that 's all you think about is yourself . is that what you were doing ? you were thinking about yourself when you ran into my daughter 's bike ? bill : i am sorry about what happened . brooke : ridge , i know you 're upset and afraid , but bill would n't intentionally hurt steffy . you have to know that . bill : i need to see her . ridge : are you kidding me ? stay away from my daughter . ridge : this is unreal to me . you 're there in a hospital bed . you should be home taking care of your daughter . and you ca n't because this guy , he just ... he does whatever he wants . he takes whatever he wants . i 'm sorry , that 's ... how is that important right now ? it 's not . it does n't help you any . we just got ta get you better . we got ta be positive , right ? because this is n't you . lying here . you got work to do . you got so much stuff to do and you can ... you can pull out of this because you 're the strongest person i know . you 're a force of nature . you always have been . and if you 're lost somewhere , if you 're stuck in -- in the darkness , then ... just listen to me . listen to my voice , and i 'll guide you home . just come home to me , please . [ sniffles ] hey . hey . steffy : dad ? ridge : i 'm here . you 're gon na be okay . everything 's gon na be okay . [ kiss ] it 's gon na be okay . i love you so much . . . .

( ring ) stephanie : talk to him . hope : hello ? oliver : hope ! i 've been trying to get ahold of you . hope : yeah , i know . oliver : we got ta talk and work this out . i ca n't stand to be away from you . c - can you come over to the beach house ? hope : ( whispers ) um , the beach house ? stephanie : ( whispers ) go see him . talk to him . hope : ( normal voice ) okay , i 'll be there . oliver : oh , thank you . i 'll see you soon ? hope : okay . stephanie : ( normal voice ) that was a good decision . hope : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] hope : god , why does my mother do these things ? stephanie : ( chuckles ) honey , i am not a psychiatrist . i do n't know . but you need to give yourself some distance from her . get away while you can . hope : ( sighs ) god , do -- do you think my mother is -- is , like -- stephanie : i know your mother has some very deep and profound issues when it comes to men . she 's addicted to the attention that she gets from them . she needs it . she craves it . hope : do you think she 'll ever change ? stephanie : i 've asked myself that same question for a long , long time . and , uh ... i -- no . no , i do n't , hope . i think she 's incapable of that . look , go see oliver . listen to him . hear him out . and if it 's in your heart to forgive him , then forgive him . and then you come back here , think of this as your new home , and you 'll be safe . we 'll keep you safe . okay ? hope : yeah , okay . [ scene_break ] steffy : whoever made that bogus video is going to pay . they ruined everything i worked so hard for . you know , my dad even fired me because of it . liam : yeah , i know . i mean , y - you want to clear your name , get your job back . steffy : no , i want to gain my father 's trust . that 's more important than my -- my job or my reputation . you know , it kills me to know that my dad does n't believe me . liam : why would your dad think that you 'd do something like this ? steffy : uh , i 've done some things recently that could make him think that i 'm guilty . but i - i 'm not . i 'm innocent , and i 'm gon na prove it . liam : yeah , i really do feel bad about what 's happened . steffy : thank you . so you 'll help me ? please , liam , i - i - i really , really , need you . i have to figure out how this happened . just please say you 'll come through for me . [ scene_break ] bridget : i completely understand why hope is so hurt and feels betrayed . and honestly , mom , it 's brought up a lot of those same feelings for me , too . brooke : oh , honey , i 'm so sorry . bridget : but , look . just -- i thought about it a lot . and hope would n't even be here if it was n't for what you did with deacon . it was wrong , and it was very hurtful , but something good did come out of it . and it 's just like this baby that i 'm carrying . it was n't created under the best circumstances , but something very good can come out of a bad situation , almost like it ... it 's meant to be . brooke : ( sighs ) bridget : i 'm in no position to judge you . i mean , look at me . brooke : ( sighs ) bridget : and i know that you would never hurt hope on purpose . i do believe you . and that 's what i told her . i told her that she should forgive you . brooke : ( sighs ) ( sniffles ) oh . ( sighs ) thank you . ( sighs ) thank you for supporting me and believing me , okay ? ( sighs ) now if i can just ... ( sighs ) get hope to understand and forgive me . and i 've got to get to her b - before the press does , you know , before they drag up all that old dirt . oh , and most importantly , i 've got to get to her before steffy and stephanie do , and before they brainwash her against me . [ scene_break ] ( knock on door ) oliver : hi . hope : hi . oliver : i 'm glad you came . i hope this means you can forgive me . can you , hope ? can you ... can you find it in your heart to forgive me ?
bridget prepares a healthy breakfast and admits a disguised brooke into the apartment . brooke says the vultures are out everywhere . she appreciates bridget calling her last night and telling her that hope was there . bridget informs her that hope is out for the moment . but she is strong and just needs some time . brooke is sorry that bridget got caught in the middle . surprisingly , hope shows up at stephanie 's and needs to speak with her . she says she feels numb . stephanie assures her that she had nothing to do with this latest stunt of brooke 's . hope knows that stephanie has no use for brooke , but wonders if she really knew it was oliver .could she be that cruel ? stephanie says yes , knowing brooke like she does , she can believe she did know . but hope probably has doubts so she just needs to keep a distance for now . oliver may be innocent in this and should not be punished for what her mother did . oliver talks to juan castro and introduces him to aggie . juan suggests that he keep trying to call hope . oliver is upset because she wo n't return his calls .
liam : dr. ayes , can i have a word with you , please ? taylor : some people do not deserve blind loyalty , liam , and your father is one of them . katie : taylor , if you 're here to accuse my husband of something , why do n't you just say it ?

[ scene_break ] katie : listen , taylor , i like you . i do , but please do n't come into my husband 's office and start bad - mouthing him in front of his son . i mean , that 's a little out of line , do n't you think ? taylor : i 'm not saying anything he does n't already know . liam : hey , you want to see my father ? i 'll try to reach him for you . taylor : no , it 's okay . i 'll talk to katie , since it appears bill wo n't . katie : taylor , you want a private conversation , that 's fine , but let me tell you something . i know all about my husband and your daughter . taylor : i seriously doubt that . katie : and i can tell you who the aggressor is , and frankly , your concern is a little overdue . taylor : katie , your husband is deceiving you . katie : do you really want to do this ? i mean , really ? i - i understand that you 're a mother , and you want to believe everything your daughter says , but after everything that happened with thomas , do n't you think that you could take whatever steffy tells you with a little healthy skepticism ? brooke : hey ! oh . sorry , uh , to interrupt , but there was nobody outside . katie : hillary is doing some transcription for me . is it lunchtime already ? brooke : yeah , but i can come back if you 're busy . katie : no . no , i 'm not busy . liam : hey , no , you know , why do n't you guys use my dad 's office for your meeting , and i will continue my conversation with dr. hayes outside ? brooke : liam , it 's a lunch . and i hope you 're okay , taylor . taylor : why would that really matter to you ? well , i 'll just take this time and -- and -- and collect my thoughts -- whatever . katie : ( sighs ) liam : now i can call you a cab , or i can drive you home myself . taylor : no , thank you . i 'm going to do what i came here to do . liam : no , dr. hayes , you 're not . have n't you been burned enough butting into other people 's marriages ? taylor : ( sighs ) katie : ( scoffs ) between steffy and bill ? not you , too . brooke : maybe steffy said something to get her going . katie : yeah , i 'm sure she did . i am not gon na let taylor get to me . brooke : well , maybe taylor saw her coming into the spencer building . katie : so what ? oh , brooke , i am so over worrying about this girl . i mean , it 's not gon na do me any good to get all crazy and insecure . that 's exactly what she wants . i 'm not playing that game . listen , bill is a smart guy with unlimited resources . if he wanted to carry on behind my back , he would , and i 'd never know . i made my peace with that a long time ago . brooke : that kind of trust is a beautiful thing . katie : i trust that bill loves me , but most of all , i trust that i know him , the whole package , selfishness and all . if he wanted steffy , he would n't bother being sneaky about it , he 'd just say it , but he does n't . and steffy 's just gon na have to realize that .

( sighs ) what the hell am i supposed to do ? [ scene_break ] steffy : i know you 're doing your best . bill : ( shudders ) i hate when people say they 're doing their best . if somebody says they 're doing their best , inevitably that means they 're not getting the job done . steffy : well , i 'm not trying to criticize you . bill : i am . i am . i - i ca n't believe i 'm in this situation . it is beneath me . but suddenly katie and my sister have become new best friends . i am in -- doing a wedding vow renewal . i 've got the board meeting .

[ scene_break ] katie : okay . you have my undivided attention . listen , i 'm sorry if i was rude to you before . you have to understand that one of the challenges of being married to bill spencer is that i have at least one person coming to see me every day saying , `` do you know what your husband has done ? `` taylor : no , no , no , no . no , it 's all right . um , i was a little abrupt myself . i was a little annoyed liam was trying to get rid of me . katie : yeah , well , he 's not the most subtle . i think that 's one of the qualities he 's inherited from his father . but you deserve better from me i mean , honestly , i think you 're one of the reasons why bill and i are still together . taylor : i seriously doubt that . katie : no , granted , our therapy session was a complete disaster , but we need a safe place to say some dangerous things , and we aid them , and the world did n't end , so ... taylor : well , the therapeutic relationship did . katie : yeah . and i suppose that 's difficult . i did n't realize that . taylor : well , yeah , i - i guess that sometimes it can be , but , you know , what usually bothers me is if i do n't know if the original issue that the couple came in with was ever resolved . katie : okay . well ... ( sighs ) the bottom line is that bill felt that i betrayed him by telling you what happened with amber . and he has definite abandonment issues . and even though i felt like leaving was the right thing to do at the time , i think i stayed away too long , and i wo n't make that mistake again . he 's a difficult person to figure out sometimes , but we have faced our problems , and we have moved past them . in -- in fact , we just renewed our vows . taylor : yes , yes , yes . i heard about that . katie : i wanted bill to know that i love him unconditionally . i wanted him to hear those words , and i think he did . ( sighs ) what ? taylor : katie , when i came over here , i - i knew i wanted to come and talk to you for the right reasons , and i - i 'm pretty sure that i have . liam was accusing me -- well , that 's -- that 's too strong of a word -- katie : yeah , well , he 's a little rough around the edges . so what ? taylor : i 'm not saying that i 'm blameless in this , because i have known for a while now that steffy has had feelings for your husband . katie : she 's not exactly subtle , so do n't feel bad . i appreciate your concern . taylor : not that i thought -- i did n't think it was harmless , but i had no idea it would come to this . katie : i am not worried about your daughter , okay ? i am choosing to ignore her . taylor : katie , you 're not going to be able to . katie : ( sighs ) taylor : they 're very involved . bill says that he 's in love with her . katie : ( laughs ) this is -- you 're lying . taylor : bill is leaving you for my daughter ! katie : ( gasps ) ( breathing heavily )
bill slyly asks steffy where is his room ; he will need a home office . she likes the sound of that . this will be their home and for now she will keep him in the bathtub over there as her pet alligator . she loves her sword necklace from him and feels like she is more official now .. or at least will be when he ends it with katie . she is anxious and wants to be with him . he tells her they want the same thing , so just give him some time to work it out . she says it is so hard ; she does n't want to wait . she 's with him , but it 's not their real life . this is just a place now for her to wait and hang around for him . katie tells taylor that she wo n't stand here and listen to her badmouthing her husband in front of his son . she knows all about steffy throwing herself at bill and she is not concerned ; she knows who the aggressor is . brooke shows up and liam takes this opportunity to grab taylor and get her out of the room , leaving brooke and katie to talk . katie says she is not going to play into taylor 's hand and listen to her rants . she trusts that she knows bill and he loves her , and steffy will just have to realize that . liam tells dr. hayes that she is not going to say a word now against his father . she muses that she is . she is going to help his father to have the guts to do what he has n't been able to do . he has a sweet little wife at home and a hot little number on the side , so he has no reason to want to change that .
ridge : he 's saying what he thinks you want to hear . he 's playing with your emotions . bill : that 's not what i 'm doing . ridge : i hate seeing you like that . it 's over . tell him it 's over for good . liam : so what 's going on ? wyatt : oh , you know . the yuzh . liam : `` the yuzh `` ? you want to let me in -- ms. logan ? excuse me . i 've been looking for you . hope : oh , what 's wrong ? we have a mutiny on our hands . come quickly . hope : okay . i 'm gon na go see what this is about . liam : yeah , probably . hope : okay . liam : [ chuckles ] mutiny ? wyatt : aha . ivy : it was an accident . i did n't mean to capture any of this on video . aly : you shot this ? ivy : yeah , i was making a video tour of forrester for my mum . not in a million years did i expect to find hope and wyatt . i feel terrible . i 'm not this kind of person . aly : the way she 's looking at wyatt -- but she 's back with liam now . hope would never -- she would never put liam through that . shall i let the sewers know it 's being addressed ? hope : absolutely , and thank you so much for alerting me about this . i will rework the schedule . okay . hope : okay .

[ sighs ] so ... something very unexpected happened , and , i mean , i guess i should n't have been surprised , because he told me he was gon na give it to me , but now that he has , i 'm -- i 'm just -- i -- i 'm not making any sense to you right now , am i ? deacon : no . hope : yeah . bill : it 's not over , brooke . ridge : it was over the second you told justin to dump me in the gulf . bill : as payback for the cheap shot you laid on me for dragging my bride away . not as a way to eliminate you from our lives . katie : you keep saying that , but it 's just words . bill : because it 's the truth ! i wanted to teach him a lesson , not have him killed . ridge : do n't listen to him , brooke . cut him loose . spencer is not worth it . never was . liam : well , i know you 're really happy to be back . i mean , could ivy be part of the reason ? wyatt : [ laughing ] wow . liam : what ? wyatt : bro , come on . liam : what ? wyatt : you are getting way ahead of yourself here . liam : i 'm just -- wyatt : i am not in the market for a -- a diamond , and if i were , it would have to be perfect in every single way . liam : like the hope for the future diamond ? wyatt : there 's only one of those . and to say that she 's that exquisite . liam : [ laughs ] diamonds have genders now , apparently . wyatt : rare gems are like rare women . when you find one , you just ca n't -- i 'm not telling you something you do n't already know . liam : speaking of hope , you do n't think there 's really a -- wyatt : a mutiny happening and the inmates are taking over ? liam : yeah . wyatt : i do n't know . [ both laugh ] hope : well , keep me posted , okay ? it 's very important that the sewers ' concerns are addressed . okay . thank you . sorry about that . deacon : no , not at all . my daughter is a very important businesswoman , who apparently has a lot going on in her personal life , too . hope : mm . [ sighs ] have you heard of the hope for the future diamond ? deacon : yeah , of course i have . i mean , it was all over the press . you and wyatt jetting down to mexico -- sure . hope : yeah . yeah , that was the start of a lot of really incredible adventures for us . it seemed like each one was more exciting than the next . in a sense . deacon : i guess the diamond lived up to its rep , right ? worked its magic on you and wyatt . hope : yeah . yeah , you know about that ? deacon : yeah , i mean , wyatt told me about the power of the diamond when he showed it to me . hope : you 've seen it ? deacon : yeah . oh , yeah . and , baby , i got to tell you something . it is everything that you and he said it is and a whole lot more . bill : i never wanted what happened to happen . and when ridge when missing , i used all my resources to help find him . and i was worried , too . ridge : you were worried about being tried for murder . that was your only concern . bill : look at me . i should have told you the truth . ridge : but you did n't . bill : i kept thinking that forrester was gon na show up and everything was gon na be okay . katie : but he was n't okay , bill . he was n't okay . yes , he made it to shore , but he 's still been struggling . and all you 've done is belittle him . you made him think that what he was remembering is n't what happened , but it is what happened . you made him doubt himself , and , worst of all , you made us doubt him . i think that 's the most despicable part of this . ridge : brooke ... i want what 's best for you . and what 's best for our son . brooke : i was hoping that you and i could raise will and r.j . together , that the four of us could live in peace together for the sake of the children . in peace , bill . bill : that can still happen . ridge : oh , spencer , get out . bill : please , just give me -- just give me five minutes . the two of us alone , okay ? and if you still want me out after that , fine . brooke : i 'll be fine . really . you two should go home . katie : okay . well , call us if you need anything . brooke : i will . bill : thank you for giving us a moment . brooke : do n't . do n't thank me , bill . you have no idea what i 'm going to say . ivy : look , do n't get me wrong . i like hope . but why is she playing these guys , if she 's playing them ? aly : did hope accept the diamond ? ivy : i 'm not even entirely sure that wyatt gave it to her . but if he did , what do you think ? do you think it 's appropriate to accept a gift from your ex- boyfriend , especially a gift like that . aly : of course not , and hope knows that . plus she 'd never upset liam by accepting it . ivy : okay , well , it still does n't explain the embrace and the way she was looking at him . or does it ? liam : well , brother . fun as this is ... wyatt : i know . i am a terrible substitute for hope . go . liam : it 's not your fault . i 'm gon na go track her down . anything -- any message you want me to give her ? wyatt : no , no . i 'm cool . go spend some time with your lady . while you still can . deacon : i 'm guessing wyatt has shown it to you . hope : wyatt 's always saying these crazy , romantic things , like he 's going to give this to me one day , but now that he actually has -- deacon : wait , wait . wyatt gave this to you ? hope : yeah , but i -- i ca n't really keep it , can i ? deacon : are you kidding me ? are you my daughter ? hell , yeah , you can keep it . you take that thing and you go running through the streets screaming . hope : [ laughs ] deacon : do you have any idea what this thing is worth ? hope : oh , i do n't know . i do n't think anybody really knows , but if i did keep it -- deacon : think about this for a second , all right ? just think about the tie - ins to your line . i mean , it 's got amazing promotional value . hope : i know , so wyatt has reminded me . although , when that 's over , i would have to give it back . deacon : why ? hope : well , for starters , it 's kind of inappropriate for an engaged woman to accept a diamond from another man . [ sighs ] ridge : i think we should have stayed . katie : ridge -- ridge : hey . hope : hey . what 's going on ? deacon : you did it , did n't you ? you confronted spencer and he sang like a bird . ridge : eventually , yeah . hope : what are you talking about ? what 's happening ? katie : ridge took bill on a little helicopter ride . ridge : only he thought that justin was flying . hope : you are not a pilot . ridge : mm , i am . took lessons in paris . deacon : okay , so , what happened after you made your big reveal ? what did he say ? katie : he denied everything , of course . ridge : until i bounced him around a little bit . hope : oh , my god . katie : i mean , none of this would have happened if you did n't find out that bill 's helicopter was in abu dhabi . hope : wait , what ? i do n't -- what ? deacon : it 's a long story . ridge : it was bill all along . justin was flying that day , and spencer made him dump me in the drink . deacon : look , how 's brooke doing , all right ? oh , please tell me that she has kicked spencer to the curb . ridge : not yet . that 's what worries me . deacon : [ sighs ] bill : brooke . brooke : do n't . [ sighs ] i thought i knew the man that i was about to marry today . a man who fought so hard to spend more time with his little son . a man who claims that he valued family over anything else , even business . i really did n't think it was possible that you could do those things that ridge said you did . i know in the past you 've done things that are questionable . hurtful things . but i never knew that you could be intentionally cruel . god forbid , even a murderer . bill : i 'm not a murderer . brooke : okay , then you 're a liar . you 're a damn liar ! we stood there , bill , in that suite , all of us , wondering what happened to ridge , scared to death . and you stood there and you acted like you knew nothing . who was flying that helicopter , who was responsible , what happened to ridge -- you said nothing ! and to claim that you love me more than anything in this world . bill : i do love you more than anything in this world . and i was wrong . brooke : wrong ? wrong ? you were heartless . you were cruel ! bill : i let my anger at ridge destroying our wedding , taking you from me -- i let it consume me . i will never keep anything from you again . brooke : [ sighs ] bill : please do n't let this derail our plans . say you 'll try and understand ... and forgive . brooke : uh ... i ... [ scoffs ] i am going to search my heart for forgiveness . but this -- this reckless anger that you have , i ca n't take it . deacon : that 's a hell of a story . so what happens now ? you send the cops over to brooke 's ? ridge : no , no cops . deacon : are you telling me after all this , you 're not going to prosecute spencer ? ridge : right now , it 's brooke that i 'm concerned about . katie : she has to end this . ridge : and she will . she will . bill : if this is where you tell me you ca n't marry me -- brooke : you could n't possibly believe that i would . not now . not any time soon . you lied to me , bill . you betrayed me . you let your anger for ridge get the best of you . bill : i know what i did . brooke : [ sighs ] do you ? because i do n't know . i do n't know anymore about you , about me . about what we had together . and i doubted a man who loved me and who protected me ... over a man who ... [ sighs ] bill : i 'll own what i did . no excuses . but on our wedding day on that beach in abu dhabi , pledging my life to you ... i meant every word . and i always will . `` here we stand , halfway around the world , where the desert meets the sea . sand and water . two timeless forces of nature . that 's how i see us . `` and that 's still how i see us . and we ca n't let this or anything tear us apart . we can never let that happen , brooke . ivy : well , those spencer brothers really are something , are n't they ? giving hope that diamond . talk about upping the stakes . aly : wyatt should n't be upping anything . hope 's made her choice . it 's liam she wants . wyatt 's just using that diamond to get her in his trailer again . hope : [ sighs ] liam : hey . there you are . i 've been looking all over for you . hope : [ sighs ] liam : everything okay ? hope : [ clears throat ] [ chuckles ] wyatt gave it to me . liam : a replica of the hope for the future diamond ? hope : nope . [ chuckles ] no , this is the real thing . yeah . ricardo montemayor , he passed away , and he left it to wyatt , who gave it to me . liam : just like he said he would . hope : it was a real shock . it was a real shock to wyatt , you know , and to me . wyatt and ricardo were acquaintances , but they were n't family , you know ? but ricardo , he did n't have any heirs at all . liam : yeah , so wyatt lucked out . and now he 's the proud owner of the hope for the future diamond , and he 's already using it to his advantage . damn it ! damn it , damn it ! i sh -- i should have anticipated this would happen . i mean , you -- you know you ca n't keep that , right ? hope , you have to give it back . like , today .
ridge tells brooke that he hates seeing her this way . bill is just playing with her emotions . she needs to tell him it is over for good . bill tells brooke they are far from over . he never meant to hurt ridge , just teach him a lesson . ridge tells brooke again to cut him loose . he 's not worth it ; never was . bill defends himself by saying he used all his resources to find ridge . katie speaks up and says he made ridge doubt himself and made them doubt him too and that 's the worst of it . bill asks brooke for five minutes alone and then he will leave if she still wants him to . brooke tells ridge and katie to go on home , she will be okay . bill thanks brooke for giving him this time . she says do n't ; he has no idea what she is going to say . liam joins hope and wyatt on the rooftop and asks what is going on . before hope can say a word , she is tracked down and told she is needed back inside . ivy shows aly the video she made that accidentally caught hope hugging wyatt . she says she feels terrible . she is not this kind of person . aly is shocked . she says hope is back with liam and she would never put him through that . ivy has no other explanation then why hope is hugging wyatt unless he gave her the diamond . she saw the hug and the way hope looked at him . liam asks wyatt how it is going with ivy . wyatt says he has noticed how cute she is but no office romance . that usually does n't work out . hope is taking longer than liam thought so he says he is going to track her down . wyatt tells him fine go be with his lady . under his breath he says while he till can .
eric : you 're crazy . quinn : i flew in this morning . eric : why did n't you tell me ? quinn : after that e - mail you sent me ? i had to see you , eric . [ scene_break ] wyatt : you were made for this . look ! these are great ! liam : so , um , tomorrow ... wyatt : right -- the stella maris . yeah . you going ? liam : [ chuckles ] i 'm surprised you did n't claim eminent domain and take over the thing . wyatt : no . dad beat me to that , actually . he 's got summit events all week , which , uh , we could squeeze in another photo shoot if you want . what about you ? you have plans ? liam : uh , yeah . i 'm meeting the prince of monaco . wyatt : [ gasps ] steffy : for your foundation ? liam : yeah . steffy : well , maybe you should do it on the boat . wyatt : whoa . whoa . whoa ! the boat is kind of reserved for spencer events , not your foundation . that 's your thing , not ours . [ cell phone rings ] wyatt : yeah ? one sec . one -- it 's in the suit -- i 'll get it . yeah , no . it 's in my bag on the left - hand side . liam : [ sighs ] steffy : you know , i support your foundation . i really respect what you 're doing . wyatt : my little superstar . 5 million followers -- wow ! do n't act too excited . we only have a huge day ahead of us . steffy : i 'm sorry . wyatt : you okay ? steffy : yeah , yeah . it 's nothing . it 's nothing . wyatt : it 's not nothing . it 's something , 'cause i know you . steffy : the nonprofit your brother 's putting together -- it 's for a good cause . he could really use our support . [ scene_break ] eva : eric 's getting incredible coverage on his speech . i also confirmed your meeting . liam : you -- you did ? eva : i mean , i 'm here working for forrester , but i do n't mind doing a favor for the boss . liam : thank you . eva : yeah . you know , i really admire your determination , liam . it 's not easy waking up the sleeping world . liam : yeah . you know , yeah . that is kind of how i feel sometimes . eva : so i 've noticed . liam : huh . eva : but you know what ? i also get the feeling ... liam : what ? eva : [ sighs ] i do n't know . that you 're running from something . liam : [ laughs ] damn ! that 's -- yeah , that 's perceptive , you know ? um , yeah , i am . i am running from something . i 'm running from the fact that i was robbed of the life i 'm supposed to be living . [ scene_break ] quinn : so , you never answered me . are they the same color blue ? [ scene_break ] steffy : sun 's coming out . what ? wyatt : is it possible that you are even more beautiful than usual ? steffy : i think it 's the monte carlo effect . wyatt : it works on you . steffy : could say the same about you . wyatt : hmm . steffy : it 's so pristine . wyatt : it 's unbelievable , is n't it ? steffy : yeah . it 's inspiring . wyatt : yeah , it is . steffy : i want to do my part , wyatt . wyatt : part -- part what ? steffy : we 're in this position , and we are so fortunate we have this platform . i have my followers . wyatt : to do what , exactly ? steffy : to make a difference . what liam is doing is really impressive . you have to admit that . wyatt : yeah . yeah , no . he 's a good guy . steffy : so , why ca n't you and i be good guys , too ? i 've been reading up on all these environmental challenges , especially in our seas and our oceans . wyatt : ah . steffy : do you know there 's a spot in the middle of the pacific where all this trash and bottles gather because of the current ? wyatt : i 've heard about it , yes . steffy : what liam is doing is really admirable . you know , there 's more to life than just followers and profits . we just have to rise to the challenge . wyatt : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] eva : can you imagine if your dad signed on to your project ? liam : [ scoffs ] yeah , that 'd be a miracle -- st. dollar bill . eva : protector of the seas . liam : servant of the deep . eva : and who knows -- maybe they 'd even name a fish after him . liam : oh , sweetheart , there ai n't one big enough . trust me . eva : oh , sure , there is . do n't people always say there are plenty of fish in the sea ? liam : uh ... [ scoffs ] yeah . yeah , plenty of fish in the sea . [ sighs ] but when you 've been involved with steffy , it 's -- wow . that 's a whole tangent . i 'm sorry . i 'm really sorry . that 's not -- forget that . eva : no , i - i totally understand . i mean , you 've lost someone significant . i know the feeling . liam : you do , huh ? eva : [ laughing ] of course . does n't everyone ? liam : i 'm sorry to hear that . eva : but ... you do move on ... eventually . liam : uh ... yeah . you -- you move on eventually . or you start a foundation . hey . eva : or that . liam : [ chuckles ] i do n't know . i just wanted to do something meaningful , something profound with my life , 'cause i lost everything that matters to me , you know ? and ... and then , at a certain point , you realize there are other things that matter , and they 're huge . eva : and you 're taking them on . liam ... liam : yeah ? eva : i am so proud of you . liam : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] quinn : ohh . seriously , eric , i did n't come here to add any more drama to your life . i saw you , and that 's all that matters . i can leave now . eric : absolutely not . i 'm thrilled you 're here , truly . quinn : you are ? eric : yes . look , i was a little out of sorts when i sent you that e - mail , and i 'm sorry . quinn : why did you ? eric : i spent most of the flight over here talking to liam . quinn : oh . say no more . eric : he 's a good man . quinn : yes . he is . he 's a wonderful man . and i abused him terribly . it 's my biggest regret of the many that i have in my life , but ... i 'm different now . eric : i 'm aware of that . i realized that quite some time ago , if you 'll remember . quinn : if i could have just 1/10 of your positive attitude ... you 're so good for me . eric : i 'm so glad . you 're great for me . i have n't felt this good about my life in a very long time . now , can anybody know you 're here ? quinn : [ laughs ] well , not unless you want to start world war iii in this beautiful paradise . eric : there 's quite a few people that would just go nuts if they knew you were here . quinn : yeah , but i have a solution for that . i never need to leave your room . i know you 're here for business . you have meetings . i 'm sure you want to spend time with your family . eric : where will you go ? quinn : oh . i 'm going to slip out of the country under the cover of darkness . eric : that 's very james bond . quinn : yes . so ... 10 hours on a plane with liam . you , uh -- you must have gotten an earful . eric : yeah , pretty much . quinn : yeah , he hates me , as he should . eric : he had a pretty serious head injury . it 's not surprising that he would have a hard time recovering from that . quinn : you need to know , though , eric , i was never harsh with him . eric : it was wrong . quinn : but i 've changed . eric : i know . quinn : you know , that 's not who i am anymore . this -- this is who i am . ironically , i have liam to thank for that , because he showed me a different side to myself . he showed me a better side . eric : i love this is the side i get to see . quinn : i 'm never gon na go back to the other side , even if -- even if this thing between us does n't work out , and i can think of a million reasons . why would n't i ? i 'm never going to be her ever again . i 'll find somebody else . i - i 'm gon na find somebody who 's gentle , kind , loving ... the way i want to be . just like you , eric .

[ chuckles ] you 'll see , all right ? tonight -- tonight will change everything . steffy : because your wedding night did n't go the way you planned ? thomas : [ sighs ] steffy : it 's pretty obvious . thomas , i know how much you wanted hope , and for how long , but you got to follow her lead on this . be patient . she married you . you have the rest of your lives together , okay ? just communicate with each other . be open and honest about everything . hope : are you saying that beth is still a part of my life ? because she is . liam : mine , too . and she always will be . hope : and that even though i 'm your mommy now , i 'm still a mommy to beth . is that what you 're -- what you 're saying ? douglas : beth is alive . hope : [ inhales sharply ] in my heart ? liam : like , how your mommy is still alive in your heart ? douglas : no . my mommy died . your baby beth is alive . flo : i am done protecting myself , zoe . zoe : keep your voice down . flo : [ exclaims ] thomas is the one who 's just -- zoe : thomas is n't the problem . this is . you , freaking out . flo : you 've seen what kind of person he is . he is obsessed with hope . he 's dangerous . zoe : okay , hope has known him her whole life . i think she would be a better judge of -- flo : no . no . hope -- hope is too generous and -- and kind for her own good . i mean , look -- look how she 's treated me . she did n't even know me . before she even knew that we were related , she was just always so wonderful to me . and i -- and i just -- i just stood by , and i - i watched her -- i watched her grieve a child that she did n't even lose . i watched -- i watched her marriage to liam fall apart , and i let thomas [ sighs ] be able to manipulate all of us . zoe : look , i - i do n't like the way that he 's handled this , either . okay ? threatening you is only making this situation a lot more stressful . but he has n't done anything to hope . flo : zoe , he -- he convinced her that the only way to get past losing beth was to marry him and be a mother to his child . he used her grief to manipulate her . hope does n't know what he 's capable of . she married him not really knowing the kind of man he is . thomas has to be stopped . somebody needs to step up and tell all of them that beth is really alive . hope : douglas , why are you saying this ? you do n't want to make me sad , right ? douglas : no . hope : okay , so , then , i need you to stop . douglas : but -- liam : buddy , you should listen to her . douglas : beth 's alive . hope : please stop saying that . you know how much i love beth . and i would give anything to hold her again , and to see her smile [ crying ] but douglas , sweetie , she 's gone . okay ? and she 's never coming back . [ sobbing ] i can't . i 'm sorry . i need to -- i need to get some air . can you tell thomas that i 'll meet him in the car ? liam : yeah , i -- [ sighs ] douglas : why did she leave ? liam : [ sighs ] she 'll be all right . douglas : i thought she 'd be happy . steffy : there he is . you two having some good guy time ? yeah ? [ chuckles ] thomas : what are you , uh -- what are you guys up to ? where 's hope ? liam : um , she 's waiting for you in the car . thomas : okay . uh , well , i guess that means that , uh , i should go . thanks again for watching him . steffy : yeah , of course . remember what i said . thomas : bud , uh , follow me . i want to talk to you real quick before we go . thomas : now , remember , be a good boy for aunt steffy , all right ? do what she says . and have fun with your cousins . but , um , remember what we talked about before . you do n't say anything about what you think you heard 'cause we do n't talk about things we do n't know about , do you understand ? not one word . douglas : [ sighs ] yes , daddy . i promise . i wo n't say it again . thomas : okay . all right . have fun . humira patients , you inspire us . zoe : you 're not gon na say anything to hope . flo : the man she married is a liar . zoe : yeah , and so are we . we have been for months . so does that make us a danger to hope ? flo : it 's not the same thing , and you know it . zoe : look , do you love your cousin , flo ? flo : of course i do . zoe : okay , then . you can love someone and lie to them . flo : oh , come on , zoe . i 'm not -- i 'm not gon na let you twist this thing . zoe : no . hope and thomas , they are married . they pledged their lives to each other . flo : she would n't have done it if she knew the truth . zoe : look , you do n't know what would have happened . liam could have felt so torn between both of his families that they would have broken up , anyway . not everything is our fault , flo . okay ? and telling the truth is n't going to solve every problem . hope has moved on . she is building a future with thomas and douglas . you know , she has this whole new life ahead of her . flo : but it 's not the one that she wants . zoe : she could be happy . flo : not as happy as she would be if she knew the truth . not as happy as she would be if she was living her life with liam and beth . zoe : [ scoffs ] flo : her marriage to thomas was a mistake . he 's not the man she really wants to be with . you can deny it all you want , zoe , but we both know that hope does not love thomas . thomas : wow . heh . it 's not a week in paradise , but it 's what we need right ? hope : yeah . it 's very nice . thomas : well . it 's just the two of us , so ... it 's perfect . [ sighs ] heh ... you 're so beautiful . ah , my gorgeous wife . hope : hm . i 'm sorry . i 'm just , um ... i 'm just a little distracted . thomas : well , uh , so am i , you know . by you . hope : [ sighs ] can we just ... take our time ? talk for a little ? i mean , do n't get me wrong , this is lovely . and i appreciate all the thought that went into it . i just ... [ sighs ] thomas : well , i did it all for us . right ? we need this . and , so , whatever is going on in your mind , you just take it and throw it away . we 're together . we 've got no distractions . it 's just you and me . nothing else to do . nothing else to worry about . right ? it 's just a husband ... and a wife , giving each other our undivided attention . [ sighs ] i want you so much . steffy : so , what should we do now ? douglas : i do n't know . steffy : you want to build a fort ? douglas : where ? steffy : we could build one right here . i can get , like , some pillows and blankets . my sister and i , we used to make the best forts . your daddy used to be super jealous . douglas : you did n't let him in ? steffy : not without a secret password . douglas : a secret ? steffy : do you want me to tell you one ? yeah , come here . douglas : do i have to keep it ? steffy : you can tell anyone you want . even liam . liam : hey , will there be ice cream in this fort ? douglas : but we have n't had dinner yet . steffy : well , it 's your fort , douglas . liam : hey , you know , sometimes i like to eat dessert first . but , uh , we can wait if you want to . douglas : can kelly and phoebe play , too ? steffy : well , they 're napping right now . but once they 're up , they 're gon na be so excited to see you . douglas : can i ask a question ? steffy : of course you can , kiddo . douglas : phoebe 's adopted . steffy : yeah . & you know what that means ? douglas : she had another mommy . steffy : right . she was n't born from me . but she 's still my daughter . and i love her just as much as her sister . douglas : do you know who her mommy was before ? hope : i 'm not sure i 'm ready . thomas : [ sighs ] we 'll go slow . hope : thomas , i know how much this night means to you . thomas : well , it 's our first night together as a married couple . hope : but that also means that we have the rest of our lives together . thomas : and i want the rest of that life to start tonight . i love you . and i want to be with you . we got married so that you could move forward . right ? so that you could feel alive again . you have to get rid of all these thoughts that are just swirling around in your head about liam and beth . okay ? you got to move on . i can help you do that . you 've felt nothing but loss for so long . you have no idea how amazing it 'll be to just let go of that pain . hope : i ca n't just forget about beth . thomas : yes , you can . you have to let go . i 'm your husband , and i want to help . so trust me . just trust me . steffy : do i know who phoebe 's birth mom was before me ? yeah , i do . douglas : is it a secret ? steffy : no . no , it 's not a secret . we just ... do n't really talk about it . we do n't want to make her feel uncomfortable . you see , phoebe 's birth mom -- that 's what we call her first mom -- you know , she 's part of our family now , and -- [ phoebe and kelly babble on monitor ] oh , i think the girls are up . it 's time to make that fort ! liam : [ chuckles ] steffy : yeah ! liam : hey . um ... you were asking some really grown - up questions for a little kid . do you know what that tells me about you ? you 're really smart . your mom was really smart . your mom would ask so many questions , and she would always try to -- try to figure things out . and i guess it runs in the family , because i 'm kind of like that , too . i 'll give you an example . just now , right , when you were talking about phoebe , well , that got me thinking . and i was going , `` what -- what put that in douglas ' head ? `` hey , um ... you know there 's nothing wrong with being curious , right ? i 'm curious . douglas : you said phoebe is beth . thomas : i was talking on the phone about another person named beth . douglas : you said beth is alive . thomas : stop saying that . liam : you all right ? douglas : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . liam : for what ? douglas : for making hope sad . is she mad at me ? liam : no . she loves you . douglas : but she left . liam : yeah . well ... losing our daughter was really difficult for her , so sometimes it 's -- it 's ... it 's kind of hard to talk about beth . but i - i know that you know that , right ? like , you would never want to hurt hope . so ... why -- why did you say that ? why ... did you say that beth is alive ? thomas : you ca n't say beth 's name ever again . not to me , not to anyone . we 're done discussing this . liam : doug , wh - why did you tell hope our baby was alive ? douglas : because she is . liam : dude ... [ sighs ] um ... no . i really wish that were true . i do . douglas : it is . liam : it 's not -- it ca n't be true , okay ? it ca n't be true . because , um , well , if it were true , you would just be able to show me where she is , right ? and you ca n't do that . douglas : yes , i can .
hope asks douglas to repeat what he just said . he says again that beth is alive . she is . hope tries to persuade him this is like his own mother who died but alive in his heart . douglas says no , she really is alive . steffy tells thomas that she is happy to keep douglas and loves the way hope has opened up to him and vice versa but thomas needs to be honest about his relationship with hope . she reminds him that hope married him and they have the rest of their lives together but he needs to be patient . she knows he is not happy with no honeymoon but let hope have some time . it will work out . and in one of their many tirades zoe tells flo that she needs to blow this off and settle down . despite threatening flo , zoe says thomas has done nothing to hope . flo says he needs to be stopped . someone needs to step up . zoe once again says flo is not going to say a word . hope has moved on . she has made a new life with thomas and douglas . but flo says again that will not be as happy as she and liam would be with their baby beth . hope cries that beth is dead . she wishes she could hold her again but she is not coming back . she has to rush out . douglas tells liam that he thought she would be happy . thomas and steffy come in and he wants to know where hope is . liam says she is waiting in the car . thomas says their honeymoon will be starting but he 'd like one last word with douglas . still within earshot of liam , thomas quietly tells douglas to obey steffy and have fun with the girls but above all do not mention what he thought he had heard earlier about beth . douglas promises he wo n't say a word . thomas and hope enter their hotel room . he says it is not a week in paradise but it is all they need for now . he has not even put the bags down when he wants to pull her into his arms . she says they need to take a little more time . he says fine , no more distractions , just the two of them , husband and wife giving each other their undivided attention . he kisses her and says he wants her so much .
bill : i know ridge does n't want to hear it , but i 'm telling you it was an accident . brooke : you really did n't see her ? sanchez : were you speeding ? bill : no . and neither was steffy . she 's not reckless on her bike . i just did n't expect her to be there . i hit my brakes . i could n't stop in time . sanchez : she has n't come to ? bill : no . and the doctor ca n't say when she will . steffy : [ grunts ] ridge : steffy , honey , look at me . steffy : hi , dad . ridge : yeah , i 'm right here . steffy : what happened ? ridge : you were & in an accident . you 're in the hospital , but you 're okay . steffy : kelly . ridge : kelly 's fine . kelly 's at home with amelia . you were on your motorcycle , and you were hit by a car . steffy : [ groaning ] ridge : what , steffy ? what ? steffy : it hurts . ahh . wyatt : i just -- i ca n't even believe that you would do this to me . sally : i just wanted our life back . wyatt : i do n't -- i do n't even know how i 'm supposed to feel right now . i mean , i am so -- so relieved that you are not dying , but then to find out that it was a lie , that you were just making it all up , i just -- flo : the diagnosis , the walker , the headaches , the shaking , all of it was made up . none of it was true . wyatt : and you let me believe that it was . you knew what that was doing to me , and yet you just ... kept lying . bill : okay , can we continue this after i check in with steffy 's doctor ? sanchez : i just have a few more questions . you said that neither one of you were driving recklessly . bill : right . sanchez : does that mean you saw steffy before the collision ? bill : look , i -- i told you it happened so fast . i -- i -- i do n't know . i wish i could tell you more , i really do . brooke : we 'll see what steffy remembers when she wakes up . ridge : all right , hold on . the doctor 's coming . steffy : uhh . ohh . uhh ... doctor : steffy ? when did she regain consciousness ? ridge : just a minute ago . doctor : hey , i 'm dr . finnegan . do you know where you are ? steffy : the hospital . ridge : i told her what happened . doctor : she did n't remember ? ridge : i do n't know . we were talking , and she started groaning . steffy : [ grunts ] it hurts . doctor : your head ? steffy : no . no , no . here . ridge : you said she was stable . doctor : she is . steffy , you have some very serious abrasions and contusions . i 'm gon na assess you , but you 're awake and alert . that 's a very good sign . sally : will you at least let me try to explain ? wyatt : what possible explanation could there be , sally ? like , if you were n't trying to hurt me -- sally : i wasn't . wyatt : then you were trying to hurt flo ? you were trying to use this fake crisis to -- to get between us ? flo : that 's exactly what she was trying to do . sally : i did n't mean for this all to get so out of control . wyatt : you did n't mean to tell me you were dying ? or this was n't the plan from the beginning ? i do n't know . i 'm just trying -- i do n't understand here . the only way that this crazy scheme of yours was gon na work is if i really cared about you . sally : well , i guess that 's the problem , is n't it ? i thought you did . i felt like you were slipping away , and i did n't want to lose you , and i would have done anything to get you to stay . sanchez : do you remember if your view of the road was obstructed by anything ? another vehicle ? bill : no car , just the bike . sanchez : in your lane ? brooke : did steffy swerve in front of you ? bill : all i remember was the motorcycle just appeared out of nowhere . i hit my brakes . [ horn honks ] [ crash ] i felt the impact . the rider got knocked off , started sliding . i got out of my car . i ran over as fast as i could , and the rider was n't moving , just ... just lying there . then i saw through the visor . it was steffy . steffy : ahh . ahh . doctor : ct 's clear . bp and intercranial pressure 's normal . that 's all good . steffy : ohh . uhh . ridge : what about the pain ? where 's that coming from ? doctor : we 're gon na take care of that . ridge : if there were broken bones , we 'd know about it . doctor : our first concern was getting you stable and checking for head trauma . we also check for injuries to the spine , and we did n't see any of that . radiology was backed up , though , so we still got to run some imaging . do you have any tingling or numbness in your extremities ? steffy : no . ahh ! oh , but it hurts to move . ahh . ohh . doctor : how about when you breathe ? steffy : yeah . uh , yes , some . when i try to take a deep breath ... ohh ... ridge : see , that -- that 's not normal . my daughter 's tough as nails , and if she 's complaining about something , it means it 's severe . sally : i needed you to remember how good things were between us before flo took you away . flo : i did n't take him away . wyatt chose me . sally : i told you that i could n't lose you and i would n't let that happen . wyatt : i just never imagined you 'd go this far . penny : i tried to reason with her . i told her the plan would n't work . sally : nice backup . flo : yet you still went along with it . wyatt : yeah , you played all of us , starting with katie . sally : i did n't have some grand plan , okay ? not in the beginning . when i saw katie at the hospital , i actually thought i was sick . the headaches and the dizziness and the shaking , all of that was real . i went to the doctor because i was scared , and i went alone . and when i saw katie there and how much she actually wanted to be there for me , how worried she was and she barely even knew me ... that 's when i came up with this idea . it was just -- it was nice to have somebody actually care about me . flo : but why drag katie in ? you clearly have no problem lying to wyatt , so why would n't you just lie to him yourself ? sally : because i knew he 'd ask too many questions . penny : we had to keep the diagnosis vague so no one could follow up . sally : i knew that katie would n't ask for details , especially when i asked her to keep it to herself . wyatt : you knew she could n't do that . sally : i knew that you would n't want to be there for me , and i expected flo to just get jealous and fight it . wyatt : and she didn't . sally : so i had to keep pretending . look , i 'm sorry , okay ? if i could take it all back , i would . i never wanted you to look at me the way you are now . knowing how much i hurt you is worse than dying . when it comes to beautiful hair , why are we always shown the same thing ? bill : i told him everything i could . brooke : do you want me to go ask the nurse about steffy ? sanchez : thank you for your statement , mr . spencer . i 'll make sure it 's included in the report . bill : we 're done ? sanchez : i do n't think an investigation 's necessary . it seems , as you say , an accident . the hospital will notify our department of steffy 's condition . i hope it improves . bill : so you 're leaving . sanchez : and i suggest you do the same . but if you do plan on sticking around , i suggest you and mr . forrester focus on steffy . i do n't want to get any calls about any altercations . brooke : that wo n't happen , detective . bill : no , it won't . i 've already caused steffy and her family enough pain . sanchez : thank you . bill : why have n't we heard anything ? ridge has n't come out , has he ? brooke : no , not yet . but i think i saw the doctor go in there when we were talking to the detective . bill : did it seem like something was wrong ? brooke : i 'm not sure . but if something was wrong , i do n't think they would let ridge stay in there . bill : if it was one of my kids in there , they could n't drag me out . i need to see steffy , brooke . i did this to her . it 's my fault . it 's my responsibility . i need to know what 's going on . doctor : i 'm gon na get them to check on that chest x - ray order . i do n't see any evidence of pneumothorax , but i want to find out what 's causing her pain . ridge : so you 're worried & about her lungs . doctor : steffy 's oxygen level is normal . her lungs are clear . but , given her bruises and abrasions , she might have some fractured ribs or cartilage damage . steffy : an x - ray will show that ? doctor : we would have taken one before , but like i said , radiology was backed up . and with no obvious fractures and a good strong pulse ox , our first concern was head trauma and spinal injury . ridge : how long before you hear something ? doctor : we 'll get one as soon as we can . ridge : we do n't have time for that . look at her . steffy : it 's okay , dad . ridge : no , it 's not okay . i do n't like seeing you like this . just ger her something , please . doctor : steffy , what 's your pain level on a scale of 1 to 10 ? steffy : uhh ... 8 . ridge : can you please just get her something ? doctor : if steffy thinks she needs it . steffy : i do . doctor : we 'll get you something to manage your pain . steffy : thank you . wyatt : sally , you were n't just pretending . you were taking advantage of our concern , and you manipulated us . sally : i know what i did was wrong , okay ? but i did it out of love . wyatt : you know , when i asked you to move in with me , you told me you did n't want to be a burden , right ? you said that you did n't want to accept my pity . was that your way of just reeling me in ? hmm ? every time you refused my help , the more i wanted to do it . the more i wanted to give it to you and care for you . penny : look , i ca n't defend what we did . but the way you all came together for sally was really beautiful . her diagnosis was n't real , but the way you all reacted to it was . sally : and that was ... the love that i needed . wyatt : but then you kept lying . that 's my whole problem with this . it was n't just once or twice , sally . it was every time that we were together . you just adopted this whole persona -- the walker and the makeup and everything . sally : yeah , because i thought you would get suspicious if i was n't getting worse . wyatt : sally , we were actually relieved that you were n't getting worse . sally : not flo . she wanted me out of your house and your life as soon as possible . she was terrible to me with that whole snake bit . flo : i did that to prove that you were lying . and how -- how can you say that i was terrible to you ? i was never terrible to you . i was nice to you this entire time until i saw your medical records and i saw that all you have is stress . that 's it . penny : stress can make you sick . flo : oh , come on ! you convinced us that she had a terminal illness . penny : i 'm sorry . i never should have agreed to any of this . i did n't think anyone was gon na get hurt . and then the whole thing just spun out of control . i mean , what we did to flo , holding her here . i 'm so ashamed of everything . wyatt , i should have told you the truth that day at your beach house . then maybe you and sally could have had an honest conversation about your feelings . instead , we just made everything so much worse . sally : look , please do n't get the authorities involved . okay ? flo was never in any real danger . i just wanted a little more time with you . that 's all i wanted . please do n't punish me for that . please , please tell me that you understand . bill : hey . ridge : why are you still here ? you 're not gon na see her . brooke : how is she ? ridge : she 's awake . brooke : oh . thank god . bill : so steffy 's okay . ridge : you know what she is ? she 's lucky to be alive . bill : i know that , ridge . again , i am sorry . i know this is my fault . brooke : okay , steffy is going to be okay . ridge : yes . thankfully . is n't it weird ? every time my daughter 's in pain or hurting , you 're involved ? brooke : what did dr . finnegan say ? ridge : there 's no head trauma , no spinal injuries . so that 's good . but she 's gon na have some x - rays . might be some broken ribs . every time she moves , it feels like there 's a knife in her chest . my daughter 's in agony because of you . you did that . doctor : you 'll be more comfortable soon . steffy : what is this ? doctor : something to help with the pain . steffy : oh . thank you . flo : i know you feel bad . i know you 're sorry now that you 've been caught . we cared about you . we were both worried about you , especially wyatt . he was scared to leave you alone . he was scared about what you were facing . and you say you did all of this for the man you love who you ca n't live without . but all you managed to do was completely betray him . sally : what i did was selfish and it was wrong , but i just could n't be discarded again . my whole life , why is it so easy for me to just get thrown away ? wyatt : i did n't do that to you . sally : you proposed to me . you told me that we were gon na be together for the rest of our lives , that there was no one else that you love more . and then you left me . i get that i betrayed you , but you betrayed me first , on top of everything else that was going on . at work , with steffy 's collection and the showdown , i had to prove myself over and over again . it was just -- it was too much stress , and i could n't handle it . and i had no one else to turn to for help . and then i saw katie at the hospital , and she gave me so much compassion . that 's all i needed . that 's it -- just a little consideration , but i had to be dying to get it . i was about to be fired from forrester . and now , all of a sudden , my designs are in the couture collection ?

oliver asks hope to forgive him . she says she is not saying she wo n't , but he has to give her some time . she does n't believe that he hurt her on purpose or know how it happened , and she 's not sure she will ever understand . he wants to help ; help her get through this . she tells him perhaps if they relive that moment . she thought he knew her and what she would want , but apparently not if he thought she would want her first time sex during a three minute song outside on the wall . steffy is upset when her mom tells her that she invited ridge over . they need to work this out . steffy tells ridge that she has turned to i. t. to help solve this . she is going to prove to him once and for all that she did not sabotage the brooke video . she would never embarrass him like that . he says he would be thrilled if he found that out , but it is moot now . he does not want her back at the company until she can control her anger against brooke . steffy lashes out that brooke cheated on him and she thinks he needs to stop defending her . he needs to see how frustrating that is when he defends brooke yet fires steffy . he tells her again that he ca n't let her come back until she realizes what she has done . brooke shows up at stephanie 's and is shocked to find that stephanie is meddling once again and has invited hope to stay there .

( chuckles ) i 'm even beginning to feel a little sorry for poor donna . bill : look , you 've got ta be doing something wrong to run down a 6-foot , 200-pound man and swear that you never saw a thing . pam : and you wonder why people think you 're heartless . bill : i could n't care less what people think . ridge : pam ... what did i say about showing people into my office when i 'm not here ? pam : well , i - i did n't let him in . he just walked in . he did n't ask my permission . bill : a gentle reminder , ridge . i do own 12.5 % of this company . ridge : is there something i can do for you , bill , with 12.5 % of my attention ? bill : look , justin 's a hell of a lawyer , but this appears to be pretty cut- and - dry . marcus admitted everything . ridge : ( whistles ) poor kid . poor dayzee . justin 's with him right now ? bill : marcus is a forrester , correct ? ridge : yes . bill : so when it comes to posting bond , either donna or your father or you will step up . ridge : bill , is that why you came here , to have me put up bail for marcus ? bill : justin refuses my help . and he is certainly not going to ask you for it . pam : oh , i 'm sorry , but we are in the middle of a very important meeting . ridge : pam , not taylor . taylor has carte blanche . pam : ( gasps ) i 'm sorry . i have scar tissue on my brain . so if you could try to limit the number of times a day you change your mind , that would be great . ( sighs ) taylor , if would please just come right this way . i 'll just be out in reception . ridge : one big mistake . bill : so glad no one considers me part of it . taylor : well , i assume he told you . ridge : told me what ? taylor : that hope and liam did n't make it legal . bill : oh , that . taylor : they 're not married . [ scene_break ] brooke : i am not going to let you take advantage of this situation . steffy : i never wanted hope to hear about any of it in the first place . this whole mess was engineered by you . brooke : ( scoffs ) steffy : i could have taken advantage . you know , we had a plane waiting for us right there , but i told liam to marry hope . brooke : wow . i really think you believe what you 're saying , but then why were you there ? why were you in the room ? why did you let liam kiss you ? why would you even put yourself in that situation ? steffy : i am done undermining hope , okay ? you can believe it . you do n't have to believe it . i do n't care . but it 's the truth . and liam will always be someone i wo n't say no to . that 's just the way it is . [ scene_break ] liam : hope , i 'm not ... pretending to be blameless in all this . hope : yeah , you are . why am i the unstable one , the one who overreacts , when your intense need to have a girl adore you makes steffy and me almost interchangeable to you ? so much so , in fact , that on our wedding day , you went from me to steffy , then back to me . and it was as easy for you as changing a channel . liam , if you could explain that to me ... i wish you would . [ scene_break ] ridge : i wish you 'd come to me about this and not my daughter . bill : i just told you . i was looking for liam , and steffy happened to be there . ridge : how 'd she seem ? taylor : well , there are certain things our daughter has learned to play very close to the vest . bill : is there some issue that i 'm missing here ? i simply told liam he and hope had to sign some paperwork and have it filed to make things legal . i was n't suggesting in any roundabout way that steffy should make some last- ditch play for him . liam and hope are married now , period . taylor : right . you mean liam kept his promise to marry hope . bill : that 's what i 'm saying . taylor : whether or not he would have actually chosen to do that , which i do n't think he would have . bill : taylor , let 's face it . we backed the wrong horse . ridge : i 'm not so sure about that either , not after seeing that video . taylor : you saw . how did you see the video ? bill : what video ? ridge : katie did n't tell you ? bill : video of what ? [ scene_break ] steffy : you used to accuse me of underestimating hope . you know what ? you 're right . i thought she was childish . i thought she was spoiled , terrified of life . but since then , she 's -- she 's done a lot of growing up , and so have i . she has guts and conviction . and clearly , i have more faith in her than you do . hope and liam , they 'll figure this out . they always have . brooke : this is different . steffy : why ? brooke : she saw him with you . steffy : yeah , that 's happened before . brooke : not like that , on this video . steffy : ( sighs ) yeah , not like that . brooke : ( sighs ) i defended him . steffy : he was operating on bad information . brooke : if that was all . steffy : if what liam believed in that moment had been true , that hope actually left him at the altar , his behavior made sense . brooke : or maybe there 's more going on between you and him . steffy : honestly , hope should n't be surprised . brooke : hmm . maybe she can get past all of this now that she 's a married woman . steffy : almost a married woman . [ scene_break ] liam : i do n't know how you came to see that recording , and i 'm so sorry you did , but the way that you feel now , after having watched it ... ( sighs ) is kind of the way i felt when i thought that note was from you . but i 'm here . and i really believed that we were done . hope : why did you believe it ? why did n't you have any faith in me ? oh , that 's right . that 's right . because i 'd done it before , when i caught you making out with steffy . liam : hope , i 'm just trying to tell you how the mistake got made . hope : the mistake . yeah , the mistake . liam : that is what it was . hope : so what does that explain ? you thought the note from my father was actually from me , so that makes it somehow logical for you to jump into bed with steffy five minutes later ? what kind of a person does that , liam ? you said that you kissed her because you needed comforting . but what you really needed was to tear each other 's clothes off . liam : we did not have sex . i told you that . hope : so what stopped you ? i mean , the video just ends . what would i have seen if the battery had n't died ? oh , my god . oh , my god . i would have seen myself , would n't i ? i would have heard me knocking on the door and seeing you answering it , buttoning your shirt . liam : no , no . we had stopped by then . hope : steffy was still there , was n't she ? somewhere in -- in the closet , in the bathroom , listening to everything we were saying , was n't she ? [ scene_break ] bill : so who made this video ? by which i mean whom do i sue ? ridge : it 's not like that , bill . liam left the record button on , or hit it accidentally . nobody even knew this video existed until brooke was reviewing his wedding pictures . taylor : with your wife . it 's very strange she did n't mention that to you . bill : all right , look , uh , this is awkward , but not insurmountable . liam 's already manned up and -- and told hope what happened , right ? ridge : a very sanitized version , yes . bill : hope does know about the video ? ridge : no . taylor : ( sighs ) ridge : by now , brooke 's erased it , i hope . taylor : you want to know what i think the real crime in this whole thing is that the one who stirred this whole thing up has gotten away . bill : who would that be ? ridge : deacon sharpe . who else ? [ scene_break ] brooke : of course , the marriage was legal . steffy : i 'm not saying that it was illegal . i 'm just saying when you get married in a church , even at home , you have to file for a marriage license and , you know , sign papers . i guess it 's kind of the same overseas , maybe just a little bit different , but ... okay , you know what ? just -- can you just do me a favor ? just stop thinking what you 're thinking . brooke : oh , my god . this is just a - a really bad time for this kind of technicality to arise . steffy : you know , all they just have to do , you know , sign and take the papers down to the recorder 's office and just ex -- exchange wedding vows . brooke : i suppose you 're right . steffy : no kidding , i 'm right . granted , this may not be the most ideal day for hope to reaffirm her wedding vows . but i 'm confident she will . brooke : and what if she does n't ? [ scene_break ] hope : liam ... why did you bother keeping her hidden if you did n't think you were doing anything wrong ? what happened after i left ? liam : steffy and i talked . hope : about what ? liam : about our mistake . hope : that 's it ? there was no good - bye kiss ? liam : we 're better than this . hope : yeah , i thought we were . and then you left that hotel room and went to polignano . liam : yes . hope : and you promised to treasure me , and you told me that you would never let a day go by without telling me or , more importantly , showing me -- liam : what are -- what are you doing ? what is this right now ? hope : god , i really loved those words . liam : yeah , well , i meant every one of them . hope : and what you said to steffy ? liam : i 'm sorry . hope : what did she say when you went from ... from what i saw on that screen to marry me ? liam : i should 've had more faith in you , okay ? i should 've . but , hey , this is how life goes , you know ? you stumble , and you fall , and you get back up again . and i love you . i love you , and we have what we 've always wanted . we 're married now . hope : i thought we were n't . liam : it 's a formality . [ scene_break ] steffy : so is this the part where you want me to swear i wo n't come within 50 feet of liam ? brooke : if they need time to work this through , you 'll give it to them . steffy : time does n't belong to me . it 's not mine to give . brooke : this is important , steffy . do n't play games with me . steffy : i am not playing games . i am done with that . you want to know why ? because whatever i won , i had to give back . you 're the one playing games . you 're the one who 's gaming me . you 're trying to get me to give you reassurance that i ca n't give . brooke : i 'm just asking you not to interfere so they can sort things out . steffy : and that 's not insulting because ... brooke : because you 've interfered time and time again . steffy : okay , you know what ? here 's what i can tell you . if people ask about me , i 'm livin ' my life . i 'm not setting up traps for liam . i 'm not trying to chase him with a butterfly net or pretend that my -- my ankle 's sprained every time he walks by . no , liam knows what he could have with me . he knows everything there is to know about me . i mean , you saw the video . you know that he wanted a life with me . we could be married now . brooke : but he married hope . steffy : give or take a few signatures . what they do about that is their own business . [ scene_break ] liam : i do n't understand . hope : i know . liam : you do n't want to be married to me ? hope : well , our wedding day was a hoax . liam : no . no . hope : liam , i called it the most beautiful day of my life , but only because so much of it was hidden . do not ask me to sign something that says that day was the day we were married . i wo n't do it . liam : so all that love , all that effort , all that hope and happiness ... you 're saying it 's worth nothing ? are we better off now ? do you believe that this is how we should end ? 'cause i do n't buy that , hope . i know you love me . but love is not enough when we ca n't forgive each other when it all goes wrong . 'cause i 'm not perfect . and i need forgiveness from you , as you needed it from me in the past . and i never withheld it from you . you know i did n't . hope : i wish i could hate you . liam : i know . forgive me , hope . say you forgive me .
hope and liam discuss the video and he asks her to please remember the vows they said on their wedding day . he wants her to be careful what she says next as she implies that she 's had a change of heart . this time instead of her being the problem , she points out that liam is being naive and he is acting like she and steffy are interchangeable . liam calls the kiss a mistake , but she is still disgusted that it almost led to them making love . and even more disturbing is that she suddenly realizes that steffy was still there hiding in a closet and heard every word . steffy blames brooke for hope seeing the video and what she may do next . brooke is devastated when she learns that the certificate has n't been signed yet so technically hope and liam are not married . brooke warns steffy to keep her distance from them .
liam : i do n't understand how wyatt thinks sometimes . i mean , giving you that diamond -- that is so uncool . hope : he wanted me to have it because of its connection to the line . liam : this gesture is about more than business . and -- and if you keep this , you e sending him a message . i mean , you -- you get that , right ? aly : there is no doubt in my mind . hope will do the right thing -- give that diamond back to wyatt . ivy : [ sighs ] yeah , well , it ca n't be easy . aly : why not ? ivy : oh , come on . what woman could resist a piece like that ? aly : hope is committed to liam . she ca n't be accepting outrageous gifts like that from wyatt . ivy : exactly . which brings me back to this . must be nice having two guys stumble over each other just to be with you . aly : trust me . wyatt is no prize . he is sneaky and underhanded and a master when it comes to manipulating hope . wyatt : thanks , aly . always warms my heart to know that i 've got your support . [ doorbell rings ] deacon : surprise . brooke : deacon . deacon : i 'm sorry . it 's a bad habit dropping by without calling ahead . i 'll -- i 'll work on that . but since i 'm here , can i come in ? brooke : uh , i suppose . deacon : you know , i got to tell you , it never gets old coming to this house . it really is beautiful . brooke : hope is n't here . deacon : oh , i did n't come to see hope . i came to see you . i wanted to make sure you 're okay . wyatt : am i interrupting ? aly : oh , just giving ivy my opinion . wyatt : oh , well , do n't believe everything you hear . aly ca n't stand me . she 's not exactly objective . i 'm actually a really nice guy . most people back me up on that . ivy : hope being one ? wyatt : she 'd probably give me a high recommendation . aly : and then , just for balance , you could check in with liam . wyatt : have n't you noticed ? my brother and i are finally getting along these days . aly : yeah . so it appears . wyatt : anyway ... i 'm glad you 're both here . 'cause you should be a part of this . rick : sorry about that . i got hung up . what 's on your mind ? wyatt : a press conference . reporters are already on their way . rick : that 's fast . uh , what 's your agenda ? wyatt : it 's a surprise . rick : hmm . i do n't know if i like that . not being prepared for a press conference has been known to backfire in the past . wyatt : well , i 'm -- i 'm prepared , and i just -- i kind of need my team around me . rick : okay , the team is one thing , but i 'm gon na need a little more reassurance about this . wyatt : just go with me on this , rick . i promise you , you wo n't be sorry . rick : all right , fine . but i 'm gon na need to know a better idea of what 's going on . wyatt : well , let 's just say that it 's the next evolution for hope for the future and for hope . hope : this is not like an engagement diamond . this is for the line . liam : oh , that 's convenient . god , i never should have let my guard down with him . hope : please do n't do this . liam : damn it . hope : please , please do n't let this mess things up between the two of you . you just started to act like brothers . liam : i know ! i know we did , because i reached out ! i gave him the benefit of the doubt ! i mean , he saved my life , i finally acknowledged that he 's not like his mother , and ... we 're supposed to have this whole , new understanding , you know . and already he 's being inappropriate with you , giving you the hope for the future diamond ! i mean , what is he doing with it , anyway ? hope : i told you what happened . ricardo left it to him . liam : but why ? i mean , they -- they barely even knew each other ! that does n't make any sense ! hope : [ sighs ] they bonded over this diamond ! liam : bonded . okay . hope : yes ! liam : okay , fine . fine . then that right there -- that is a reason for wyatt to keep the diamond . can you just -- can you send him a text or an e - mail ? tell him to meet you and ... and give it back . carter : you called a surprise press conference ? wyatt : [ chuckles ] spontaneous with a surprise reveal . oliver : a secret , even to the people in this room ? rick : i 'll say it again . i do n't like going in blind . aly : caution 's appropriate . not like you have n't been questionable in the past . wyatt : [ sighs ] key word -- past , aly . aly : oh , right , 'cause this is new and improved wyatt . maya : at least give us a clue . wyatt : well , i figured out another way to put hope for a future back on the map again , but bigger than ever . ivy : sounds intriguing . wyatt : everything is set up . i already made the calls . the reporters will be here shortly . oliver : it 's risky going forward without consensus . wyatt : look , i am that confident that this is the right next step for the line . but look , if -- if you 're not fully confident in me running with this , just tell me . i - i will pull the plug right now . rick : no . no , go ahead . just do n't make me sorry that i agreed to it . wyatt : you wo n't be sorry . and get ready , because today is gon na be a big day for our team . deacon : i got to tell you , brooke , it 's actually kind of nice talking to you without bill around . is this how it 's gon na be from now on ? brooke : i - i do n't know what to think . i got completely blindsided again . deacon : you trusted him . i mean , he said he did n't have ridge dumped from that chopper . you believed him . brooke : anything else was unthinkable that he could even do something like that . ridge almost died . deacon : yeah , somehow i do n't think bill was too concerned with that . brooke : he said he wanted to teach him a lesson , that it would only take 20 minutes . deacon : little boys and their toys , right ? only the toys get bigger and the hurt is n't make - believe anymore . now , if i know spencer , he did n't go away quietly , did he ? brooke : look , i do n't feel really comfortable talking to you about bill . deacon : sorry . no problem . brooke : i do n't mean to be rude . it 's just ... deacon : no , no , there 's no need for an explanation . hey , look , we have a complicated history , you and me , you know , and i do n't think we 're gon na be best buds right out of the box . brooke : best buds ? [ chuckles ] no , i do n't think so . deacon : do n't step on my dreams . liam : are you seriously hesitating right now ? hope : this is not just any diamond ! this -- this is the hope for the future diamond . i mean , it 's special . look at it ! can you not feel the power that this thing holds ? liam : i guess . i do n't know . why are you asking me this ? hope : i -- okay . uh , this is gon na sound so crazy . i know it 's weird . but trust me -- i know for a fact that this diamond carries ... magic . liam : magic ? hope : yes ! i - i - i know . but do n't you remember what it did for the line ? the second we paired it , everything took off . people were completely under its spell , and now it 's come back to us in almost the same way from ricardo through wyatt to me , and i think maybe -- maybe there 's a reason or something , and i do n't know . i should -- i should hold on to it . i do n't know . liam : okay , all right . wait . you think -- [ sighs ] you think that this thing has magic powers ... hope : yeah . liam : ... because of what it did for your line ? hope : yes . liam : okay . okay . think about at that same time in our lives what it was doing to our relationship , because we were falling apart , hope . and now -- and now wyatt is gon na use this thing as a ploy to get you looking in his direction again . hope : that 's -- that 's not how i want you to see this . liam : yeah , but that 's how it is , and -- and , you know , shame on me . shame on me for thinking wyatt could behave in any other way , bro'ing me to death while he calculated his next big move . hope : no ! liam , wyatt had no idea that ricardo was going to die and leave him the diamond ! liam : and yet the minute that thing comes falling out of the sky and into his hands , what does he do ? he brings it to you . hope : well -- liam : hope , you have to give it back to him ... today . deacon : there was a lot that went down between us , not all of it good , a lot of it that i 'm not proud of . but for what it 's worth , i 'm better than that guy now . brooke : it seems like you 're trying . deacon : you know , i want -- i want our daughter to be proud of me . i want her to be able to say , `` that 's my dad . `` i look at her , and i swear , i am so -- i 'm humbled . i mean , i ca n't believe that i actually had anything to do with the creation of that amazing woman . brooke : same here . deacon : and , you know , whatever we had to go through , scorched earth and all , it was worth it . oh , so , uh , have you heard about wyatt 's latest ? brooke : uh , no . i 'm afraid to ask . deacon : wait a second . you do n't know about the gift ? brooke : no . deacon : you know that guy who owned the hope for the future diamond ? brooke : ricardo montemayor . deacon : yeah , yeah , that 's him . okay . was he a friend ? brooke : no , i did n't really know him . `` was `` ? deacon : um , yeah , he died . he left the diamond to wyatt . wyatt gave the diamond to hope . rick : you okay ? carter : yeah . yeah . yeah , i 'm fine . i was just , uh ... i was gon na marry a woman it turns out i do n't even know . i mean , is she that good or am i that dumb ? rick : maya is complicated . she got a lot going on at the surface . she 's had a tough life , as you know , and she was in prison because of some loser . she lost her baby . and now she has a chance at getting a little control and power , something that she 's never had before . carter : it does n't make it all right to betray people who trust you . rick : no , it does n't . oliver : i hope this does n't take too long . i need my aly time . aly : what do you want to do ? movie ? oliver : i 've had enough of pele for the day . i just want to hang out with my lady . aly : `` my lady . `` i like that . oliver : i love saying it . when i think about how close i came to losing you ... aly : do n't . you did n't . i 'm right here . he seems awfully full of himself . oliver : must be some announcement he 's about to make . excuse me . aly : wonder if it has something to do with the diamond . liam : hope , you and i are getting married . i mean , the only person you should be accepting diamonds from is me . hope : i know that . but this is not a commitment . this is not a promise made . if it were , i would not be accepting it . this is business . this is for the line . liam : no . no . hope : liam , this diamond is associated with the most success that hope for the future has ever seen . liam : do you want to know what i see when i look at that diamond ? you want to know what i associate it with ? u and wyatt splashed all over everything . that 's how he sees it , too . that 's -- that 's what he 's counting on , hope . and if you accept this gift from him , you are sending him mixed signals , and i do n't think you want to do that . [ cell phone ringing ] hope : it 's wyatt . liam : take it . take it . hope : hi . wyatt : hey , i 'm in the showroom . uh , i need you here right away . hope : uh , why ? what 's up ? wyatt : just hurry , okay ? hope : okay . wyatt wants to see me in the showroom . liam : great . oh , great . great . no , this is good . this is a perfect opportunity for you to give him his diamond back . liam : come on , hope . you have to understand what it means if you keep this diamond . i mean , wyatt will see it as a sign of encouragement , and then we 'll be right back where we started . hope : not if i make myself very clear . liam : [ sighs ] we 're finally moving forward , hope . we 're finally getting on track to that life we 've always wanted , and -- and keeping this diamond sets us back to a place that we do n't want to go again . my brother is an operator , and he just proved it . he will take advantage like he always takes advantage . i know what i 'm asking of you , okay ? i know that i 'm asking you to give up something that has meaning to you . but if i did n't think it was so important for us , i promise you i would n't be . hope : okay . okay . i 'll give the diamond back . i will . liam : thank you . hope : i 'll give it back . liam : thank you . thank you . hope : yeah . liam : thank you . brooke : i do n't know what to react to first . ricardo montemayor gave the diamond to wyatt ? deacon : yeah , well , i guess he did n't have any family . brooke : what about friends ? i mean , he hardly even knew wyatt . deacon : look , whatever happened , they bonded over the love for the diamond . at least that 's what i 'm hearing , right ? but you got to love a guy that gives your daughter priceless , famous stones . brooke : that jewel has a lot of symbolism for hope and wyatt . deacon : because of hope for the future ? brooke : well , that and basically that 's how their relationship started . deacon : oh . well , wyatt 's hoping that 's gon na happen again . brooke : no , she wo n't keep it . deacon : why not ? brooke : she ca n't . deacon : it 's a gift . brooke : it 's a gift , a diamond , from wyatt ! deacon : no , no , no . it 's the mother lode of all diamonds . brooke : yes , exactly , and that makes it worse . deacon : brooke , this thing is supposed to have magical properties , right ? i mean , that 's what i hear , okay ? so it 's got a mind of its own . it 's got a place that it wants to be , and it keeps going to hope . it wants to be with her , you know ? she ought to wear the thing , keep it . hell , she ought to flaunt it ! brooke : [ chuckles ] god , you would say that . that 's why i 'm going to advise her in the situation . deacon : well , who would have more experience with being the most beautiful , most desirable woman in the world ? men falling at your feet , offering you diamonds the size of rhode island . brooke : you 're flattering me . deacon : is it working ? brooke : [ chuckles ] jarrett : ooh , wyatt , not too late for an exclusive . wyatt : [ chuckles ] nice try , jarrett . you 're gon na hear about it with everybody else . [ chuckles ] feel this is gon na be big . something splashy that says `` wyatt 's back . `` hmm . hope : what is this ? liam : whoa . hey , listen , thank you for doing this . i really , really do think it 's gon na be better for our relationship if you just give it back . hope : yeah , yeah . no , i understand . liam : [ sighs ] wyatt : oh , good ! you 're here . now we can start . hope : what 's going on ? wyatt : press conference . big announcement . uh , stay right here , okay ? all right , everyone . [ clears throat ] let 's get started . uh , thank you all for coming . i will skip the pleasantries , as i 'm sure you 're all dying to know why you 're here . jarrett : sure are . [ laughter ] wyatt : well , all right . straight to the point . i am extremely excited to announce the return of hope and the hope for the future diamond . [ everyone gasps ] [ chatter ] wyatt : as you all know , the hope for the future diamond has been hugely significant for forrester creations and for hope and me . um , sadly , ricardo montemayor , the owner of the diamond , recently passed away . um , amazingly enough , he willed it to me . [ everyone gasps ] wyatt : [ chuckles ] yeah . yeah . uh , hope ? [ chatter ] hope : here you go . [ chuckles ] wyatt : the hope for the future diamond . [ camera shutters clicking ] wyatt : i promised you that i would give this to you one day . and its presence only speaks to its power . here it is . it 's yours . all you got to do is take it . i 'm offering you the hope for the future diamond . [ everyone gasps ] wyatt : it 's all yours . [ chuckles ] hope : [ chuckles nervously ]
liam rants that he does n't know how wyatt thinks sometimes . giving hope the diamond was so uncool . she says he wanted her to have it for the connection to her line . liam says this gesture is more than about her line and if she keeps it she will be sending wyatt a message . surely she has to get that . he hates that he let his guard down . she begs him to please not let this get in the way of their just now becoming like brothers . he says he knows . it 's because he was the one to reach out . wyatt saved his life and proved he is not like his mother . they were supposed to have an understanding and already wyatt is being inappropriate by giving her the diamond . and that does n't even make any sense why ricardo left wyatt the diamond in the first place . they barely knew each other . she says they bonded over the diamond . liam says okay then that is a reason enough that wyatt should keep the diamond . he wants hope to text or send an e - mail to wyatt and give the diamond back . aly tells ivy she is sure hope will do the right thing and give the diamond back to wyatt . ivy says it wo n't be easy . what woman could resist a piece like that . aly says believe her wyatt is no prize . he is sneaky and underhanded with manipulations when it comes to hope . wyatt walks in and tells aly it always warms his heart to know he has her support . he tells ivy she ca n't believe everything aly says as she ca n't stand him and is not exactly objective . most people think he is a pretty nice guy . ivy asks if that includes hope . he says he thinks she will give him a good recommendation . aly follows and for good measure they can follow that up with liam 's thoughts . wyatt says in case she has missed it he and his brother are getting along well these days . rick comes in . wyatt says he 's glad they are all here as he wants them to be a part of it . wyatt says it is a press conference and the press is on their way . rick is not sure he likes that without some assurance of what it is about . wyatt says it is a surprise but if rick will go with him on this he assures him he will not be sorry . wyatt says it is the next evolution for hftf and for hope . rick says again in front of his group . he does not like going into this pc blind . aly makes a smart report like this is n't the first time wyatt has done something questionable . wyatt reminds her that was in the past . maya wants a clue . wyatt says he has found a way to put hftf back on the map but bigger than ever this time . oliver says it is risky . wyatt says he is that confident that it will be the next big step . but he tells rick that if he is not onboard he will plug the plug right now ; just tell him . rick tells him to go ahead but do not make him sorry that he agreed to it . wyatt says great today is going to be a big day for their team .
thorne : i do n't believe you . steffy : aly tripped . thorne : and died ? on the side of a road , n - not over a cliff . steffy : she fell ... hard on -- on a rock . ridge : why are you doing this ? it 's painful enough as it is . thorne : my daughter did not die from tripping over a rock ! something else must have happened . now , you tell me , steffy , how aly died . [ scene_break ] ivy : wh - what are you doing ? wyatt : i do n't know . stopping you ? ivy : stopping me from what ? wyatt : yourself . obsessing . i do n't know . ivy : wyatt , my best friend died . wyatt : i know . i understand it 's horrible . but do n't let it consume you . ivy : that 's so easily said . i ca n't stop seeing it . i ca n't stop seeing steffy and the tire iron . wyatt : you want to go talk to her , then ? you want to confront her ? ivy : no , i do n't . i could n't even look at her right now . wyatt : okay . then look at me instead . ivy : [ sighs ] wyatt : look at me and trust me that i 'm gon na help you through this , whatever you want to do . you want to talk to the police ? we 'll talk to the police . you want to talk to steffy , we 'll talk to steffy . both , neither -- i do n't care . i 'm just -- i 'm here for you .

[ scene_break ] katie : well , i 'm glad you made a choice , but i - i liked ivy . i thought she 'd be a fresh start for you . bill : what is the point in continuing a relationship that has absolutely zero chance of going anywhere -- zero ? so you finally wised up . you handled that ... more or less like a man , and i 'm proud of you . katie : how did she take it ? liam : [ sighs ] not well . but she saw it coming . i just -- i feel terrible . i do n't know what to do . i - i had to be honest . i had to be honest . katie : of course ! of course you did . and you know what ? something tells me that ivy will be just fine , eventually .

[ scene_break ] liam : thorne has no idea . he was n't there . for him to come at you like that -- 'cause you explained to him what happened , right ? i mean , he knows what aly did ? steffy : yeah . yes . liam : all right . well , then , he just does n't want to hear it . steffy : would you ? that your daughter jammed a nail into someone 's car and then tried to run them over ? liam : how did aly get so lost ? steffy : i do n't know . i do n't know . god . that poor girl . that it had to end like that , you know -- horrible accident . liam : you know something ? steffy : hmm ? liam : thorne 's not ... entirely wrong . i mean , in a sense , it was n't an accident . aly targeted you . i mean , she tried to run you over . that -- that 's -- that 's on purpose . that 's calculated . she wanted to hurt you . thorne knows that . it 's got to be eating him up inside . he 's probably searching for somebody to blame . he ca n't blame aly . he ca n't blame his daughter . it 's too soon for that . so ... but i also know you , and i know that you are strong enough to take it -- to look him in the eye as he is mourning his daughter and know that he 's just scared and he 's in pain and it 's not about you . you were there . you know what really happened . that 's all that matters , okay ? steffy : what 's that look ? liam : i do n't know . awe ? it feels really natural , does n't it -- just you ... here ? steffy : finally home . liam : the prodigal wife . steffy : [ sighs ] right where i belong . where i should have been all along . you do n't resent me ? liam : no . steffy : well , i left . liam : you came back , too ... stronger than ever , arms swinging , believing in us , reminding me to believe in us . no . no . i could never resent you . steffy : you can trust me now . i 'm never leaving you . liam : like i 'd let you .

thorne lashes out at steffy and says his daughter did not just trip and fall on a rock . he wants to know exactly how she died . he rants at both steffy and ridge that he was not there but he knows his little girl died and he wants to know how right now . he wo n't listen to steffy so ridge tells her just to leave . she cries that she is sorry . ridge asks thorne what is he accusing steffy of or what does he think happened . thorne is not sure . he just knows something is not right . ridge says okay but do not blame steffy . he will allow that . wyatt tells ivy that she needs to confront steffy if she does not believe her version . ivy says no , she can not look at her right now . wyatt says then look at him as he is there for her . he kisses her . she asks if that is just for distraction . he tells her no ; he meant it . and it is settled . she is having dinner at his house tonight .
bill : steffy and i are together . the way it was always meant to be . steffy : how could you ? liam : you didn't . steffy : oh , yes . i did . bill : it 's over because i am stepping in . [ knocks on door ] hope : hey . liam : hi . hope : i got your text . is wyatt here ? liam : um , no , he 's -- he 's out . hope : well , i assume if he 's letting you crash here that things did not go well with steffy last night . liam : yeah , you could say that . and then some . ridge : i was gon na come by last night , but i did n't want to wake up kelly . i 'm assuming you 're alone in here , right ? hey , i talked to hope , and she told me about her and liam , and it 's -- it 's unacceptable . all of it is . but i also talked to wyatt . and he told me something that ... is also unbelievable . he , um ... he told -- [ sighs ] no , you -- you ca n't do that . not spencer . [ knocking on door ] bill : [ laughs ] my two favorite guys ! come on in , boys ! wyatt : so , what now ? bill : what do you mean , `` what now ? `` is that any way to greet your own daddy ? wyatt : i do n't know , dad , you tell me . did something else happen ? bill : the sun came up , marking the beginning of another glorious day . justin : is this , like , the new you ? happy ? bill : bingo ! justin : it 's a little unsettling . wyatt : yeah . bill : you 're looking at the new and improved dollar bill , courtesy of the incredible woman who is now by my side . justin : steffy . wyatt : liam 's steffy . bill : not anymore . and i had nothing to do with it . liam sealed his own fate . and now i 'm gon na seal mine . i want to start planning my wedding to steffy right away . justin : things are moving awfully fast , dollar bill . maybe we should sit back a little , let everyone catch their breath . wyatt : yeah , i agree . i mean , steffy might be making the fastest rebound in the history of rebounds here . justin : and you are losing your mind over a woman . bill : let me tell you two haters something . i lost my mind over steffy a long time ago , and i 'm not ashamed to admit it . now , about the wedding . it should be easy , but we need to make it happen fast , all right ? i 've waited long enough for my future with steffy . liam : [ sighs ] i went home to apologize to steffy , but she was n't there , and she was n't answering my texts or phone calls . i hate that we hurt her , but ... i still ca n't believe she went there . hope : where ? liam : straight to my father . hope : what ? ridge : i know you 're hurting . steffy : no , dad . you do n't know . ridge : i do know . walking in on liam and hope had to be awful . steffy : yeah , i thought i loved him . i bought into the whole `` happily ever after `` fairy tale . so stupid . it 's called a fairy tale 'cause it 's not real . just stories that people made up to make us feel good about living in a world where love does n't matter . ridge : what are you saying ? steffy : i 've wised up , dad . i gave liam everything i had . set up this home for him , gave birth to his daughter . and how does it end ? with hope and liam hooking up while i 'm at home with our little girl . ridge : no , it 's horrible , it is , but that does n't mean you have to turn to spencer . steffy : it 's more than that , dad . bill and i are getting married . bill : all right , it wo n't be a big extravaganza . there 's no time . steffy 's as anxious to do this thing as i am . wyatt : yeah , but does n't that tell you something ? steffy rushing into a marriage with you , there could n't have been a lot of forethought . justin : yeah , enough time for steffy to know exactly what she wants out of the deal . forrester stock . bill : yeah , well , that 's one of the things i admire about steffy . she 's tough . my equal . how many women can i say that about ? zero . wyatt : [ sighs ] okay , you know what , listen . do n't take this personally , but i ... i am gon na sit this one out . bill : are you serious ? wyatt : yeah . yeah , i have spent way too much time being in the middle between you and liam that i 'll miss that finale , if you do n't mind . bill : finale ? wyatt : yeah . if you ca n't see that marrying steffy right now is literally the last blow to your relationship with liam ... then you 've just been living in a delusion . hope : i know seeing us together was awful for steffy , but for her to go to bill , knowing how you feel ... liam : yeah , i do n't think that matters anymore . hope : well , i do n't believe it . liam : she did come home . i mean , she was totally shut down , did n't want to talk , but she came home . and i tried -- i tried apologizing and explaining , and she did n't want to hear it . in fact , it just made her more upset , and then it got heated , and then she started laying into me , and ... that 's , um ... yeah , that 's when i saw it . right there . hope : what ? liam : my father 's sword necklace . ridge : you need to take off that ridiculous necklace . you 're not marrying spencer . steffy : i am . i deserve to be treated properly , with respect . ridge : yes , you do . you deserve that . and what has he done ? he 's lied to you and used you . what are you doing ? you do n't love bill ! steffy : i do n't need to love him . ridge : what -- what are you saying ? steffy : i told you , i do n't believe in love anymore . ridge : okay , good , that 's -- that 's fine . i get it , you 're angry because of what you walked in on . you have every right . but that 's -- then do something to liam ! make him suffer for what he did . steffy : no , i 'm not playing games anymore . if liam finds hope so irresistible , then he can be with her . i 'm done . i 'm done . i 'm gon na move on with bill . ridge : and -- and you 're gon na have his filthy hands , his grubby little hands all over you ? this is my worst nightmare ! steffy : dad , this is not about you ! ridge : i know it 's not about me ! what about kelly ? is it about her in some way ? steffy : of course i 'm thinking about my daughter . ridge : oh , you are ? okay . so you want him a constant force in her life ? that 's what you want ? think about it ! you got to stop this before you 're in too deep . steffy : dad , i did n't want this to happen . i wanted liam , but then that night happened , and everything changed . ridge : okay , fine ! because bill took a wrecking ball to your life , to your whole life ! i 'm not letting you do this . you 're not marrying spencer . it 's not gon na happen . bill : i know you 're right about liam . and my deepest regret is that my son wants nothing to do with me . but liam hates me because of steffy . and i 'm going to marry her . there 's no fixing that . wyatt : you could bow out , give up on steffy . bill : that 'll never happen . wyatt : i 'm serious , dad . it 's one woman . bill : the only woman . wyatt : carrying 12.5 % shares in forrester creations now instead of a bouquet . bill : best investment i ever made with the greatest future returns . wyatt : yeah ? and what about liam ? bill : he 'll cash in with hope . hope : i feel terrible for hurting steffy , but for her to run straight to your father , after everything ... liam : yeah . kind of having a hard time finding the moral high ground here . hope : look , you and i , we 've loved each other for years , and everyone knows that . no one knows that more than steffy . and , yes , maybe we should n't have done what we did , but it -- it came from a moment between two people who are deeply connected . bill and steffy , i -- i do n't know what that is , some twisted alliance that i have never really been able to understand . liam : well , i think they 're about to simplify it for all of us . hope : what does that mean ? liam : oh , steffy and my dad are getting married . steffy : dad , you do n't know what it 's been like . walking on eggshells , trying to be good enough for liam to love again . ridge : [ sighs ] steffy : constantly doing penance for one mistake , and in the end , none of it mattered . i walked in on hope and liam hooking up in the forrester dressing room , of all places . that is so disrespectful . like , i 'm done , dad . i 'm done . i 'm over it . ridge : so you sold your soul to the devil ? steffy : that 's not how i see it . i 'm taking control of my life . ridge : with spencer ! steffy : at least i know where i stand . ridge : how ? how ? how do you know where you stand ? you know what he does . you know what he did to katie , to brooke , to his own kids ! and this is what you want ? you want him in your life ? he does n't care about anything but himself and money ! steffy : well , life 's all a business proposition . he gives me what i want , i give him what he wants . partnership is made . ridge : what are you -- and you 're gon na base your marriage on that ? steffy : i guess we 'll see . bill and i made a deal . ridge : a deal ? what deal ? steffy : in return for marrying him , bill agreed to give me his 12.5 % of forrester . the company will be all ours again . bill : full disclosure ? even i was getting a little bit discouraged . i mean , things were n't going well with steffy . all i kept hearing was `` no . `` wyatt : because she loves liam . bill : but that switch got flipped the moment she caught liam with hope . so let that be a lesson to both of you . never give up , never surrender . things can change when you least expect it . bill : now , you sure you do n't want to celebrate this momentous occasion , be with your dad the day he marries the woman of his dreams , huh ? wyatt : [ chuckles ] i wish you the best , dad , but i got to stay neutral on this . life is just too short , man . bill : all right . suit yourself . i ca n't wait around for you to change your mind . i want to seal this deal as soon as i can . justin : why ? you 're afraid steffy might back out ? bill : no . of course not . justin : you bought and paid for her , man , with forrester shares . i mean , do you really think that 's a good way to start a marriage ? bill : all right , look , if you ca n't be happy for me , at least check your cynicism . i 'm looking at nothing but happy . liam : [ sighs ] hope : i ca n't believe this . bill and steffy . getting ... married . liam : kind of proves him right , does n't it ? i mean , all those times he said they were inevitable . hope : liam , i 'm so sorry . liam : when they get married , i mean , think about this -- when they get married , he 's gon na be a father to his own granddaughter . i mean , that 's -- that is sick . that is whole - other - level sick . hope : it 's crazy . liam : and you know something , to add insult to injury , he showed up . i mean , i was -- i was trying to get through to steffy , you know ? i was trying to reason with her , and all of a sudden , there 's my dad , and he starts lecturing me about how he is gon na be the one to give steffy everything that she deserves , and i -- i begged her , i pleaded with her not to let him ruin her life like he has with mine . and you know what she did ? she walked over to him and she stood beside him , and it was like ... a united front . like steffy and bill , together . hope : i 'm sorry . liam : well , you know , after their night together , the thought of it ever happening again -- or worse , that it was an ongoing thing -- it was kind of a shadow over steffy and my relationship , and ... in a weird way , i feel like i 'm free of that shadow . because of you . i do n't know what the future holds . i do n't know much . i know one thing . i have to let go of steffy and my dad . maybe they 're meant for each other . maybe they 're not , but ... it 's not my burden anymore . hope : i 'm here , liam . you are n't alone . steffy : dad , once i have bill 's shares combined with ours ... ridge : i do n't care about the shares ! i do n't care about the company . i care about you ! and the thought of you being with that despicable man ... look at what he 's done . what he 's done to you , what he 's done to me . he 's blown up our whole family ! his own granddaughter 's family . you want him to be a force and to be around in kelly 's life ? really ? steffy : he will love kelly . she 's his blood . ridge : [ sighs ] what happened to you ? what happened to my clear - eyed capable daughter ? where 'd she go ? steffy : i 'm seeing better than i have in a really long time . ridge : [ sighs ] liam screwed up . i do n't condone any of that . he screwed up . but all this started because of you and bill . now , liam found forgiveness , and i think now it 's your turn . steffy : no , dad . it 's too late . dad , i really want you to hear me , okay ? it 's over with liam . ridge : okay , that 's fine . i do . i hear that . but that does n't mean that you need to rebound to that guy . just be alone for a minute . steffy : i made up my mind . bill and i are getting married . ridge : why are you doing this ? steffy : look , i know you do n't approve . but i got to do what 's necessary . i 'm taking control of my life , dad . ridge : this has nothing to do with me approving of anything ... i 'm looking at you , and ... something 's shutting down . i do n't know what it is , but something is broken , and it breaks my heart . but you think that man -- you think bill can fix any of this ? you think he can make it better ? no . he 's gon na take you , he 's gon na dismantle you , and he 's gon na make you into something that he wants you to be . [ sighs ] i 'm your dad . this is my job , to protect you . from that . i did that from the moment you were born , and i 'm not gon na stop now . okay . take off that necklace , and stop talking about marrying spencer . . . .
hope comes over to meet liam . he is remembering the time that he saw the necklace around steffy 's neck and bill telling him it was over ; he was stepping in . ridge stops in to visit steffy and says he just heard from wyatt who told him something unbelievable . then he spies the necklace around her neck and realizes it is true . justin and wyatt drop in on bill . bill says they are looking at the new and improved dollar bill as an incredible woman is now at his side . he will start planning his wedding right away . justin tells him things are happening too fast and he needs to sit down and let things cool off . bill says he has waited long enough and he is not going to wait anymore . steffy is his equal and he can not say that about any other woman – zero . wyatt tells him that he will lose liam forever if he does this and if he thinks he wo n't then he is delusional . liam tells hope that he hates that bill hurt steffy but he can not believe she went to him . steffy tells ridge that fairytales are not real and yet she bought into the whole stupid thing with hope and liam . he says maybe so but she did not have to turn to spencer . she says more than that . she is going to marry him . he tells her she needs to take off that disgusting necklace . she says she does not have to love bill . she does not believe in love anymore . she is not going to play games . if liam finds hope so desirable then let him go to her . he tells her to stop this before she gets in too deep when spencer took a wrecking ball to her life . he will not let that happen . bill tells wyatt that liam may hate him when he marries steffy but there is no fixing that ; it is a done deal . liam tells hope that he is finding it kind of hard finding the moral high ground . but he thinks they are going to simplify everything by bill and steffy getting married .
liam : listen , it 's a really nice idea that you -- [ inhales ] that you could take me to beth . it 's really nice . but you can't . douglas : yes , i can . liam : n - no . no , y -- douglas , we lost beth months ago , remember ? douglas : i can show you . liam : okay . what you 're -- [ clears throat ] what you 're claiming right now -- douglas : she is alive . i can take you to her . [ cellphone rings ] hope : your phone . thomas : forget it . i 'm busy . hope : yeah , but what if it 's about douglas ? thomas : douglas is with my sister and his cousins . hope : i s -- i just still think you should check anyway . thomas : i am dying , here . i just -- i just want to be with my wife . hope : okay , but i ca n't help thinking that -- thomas : do n't , okay ? just stop thinking . take everything out of that gorgeous head of yours , okay ? this , tonight , is about us . right ? and only us . donna : they 're married , sis . i know it 's hard to accept , but i think we 're just -- katie : but what ? donna , you think it 's all just gon na work out ? i mean , she does n't love him . come on . donna : i did n't say that . i just -- [ sighs ] i just hate seeing brooke so worried like this . brooke : i 'm just upset that i could n't get through to my daughter . katie : well , you tried . donna : repeatedly . look , in the end , hope just did what she thought she had to do for douglas . for phoebe and kelly , too . it 's -- it 's always been about the children for her . and i do respect my niece for that . brooke : and i respect her for that , too . but on her wedding night , she was downstairs in the living room , alone . not thinking about the man that she had just married , but thinking about liam . the man that she loves . the man that she will always love . katie : well , thomas is not gon na stand for that . i mean , she 's his now . he 's gon na expect her to -- brooke : i know what he 's gon na expect her to do . and the thought of her having to give herself to a man that she does n't truly love is terrible . she never should have married thomas . flo : i agree . she should n't have married thomas for so many reasons . donna : obviously all the logan women are on the same page about this marriage . flo : thomas is just so wrong for hope . katie : i like the conviction , but is there something you know that we do n't ? brooke : flo is family . she cares about hope . it 's as clear to her as it is to us that thomas is not the right man for hope . flo : she and liam just had so much going for them . donna : until that awful night on catalina , where nothing 's been the same since . flo : they were robbed . brooke : they were . and thomas capitalized on it the minute he got back in town . he use hope 's grief and her need to be a mother to his advantage . flo : exactly . and now that she 's his wife , he 's gon na have these ... expectations of her . apparently their wedding night was n't exactly what he wanted , so he whisked her off to some hotel . they 're there together right now . hope : i 'm sorry . [ sighs ] look , i realize you have expectations . thomas : yeah , well , of course i have expectations . i 'm your husband . and i love you . hope : i know . thomas : then let me show you . hey . let go . just get out of your head . hope : i can't . thomas : try . this is torture for me , okay , hope ? loving you as much as i do and not being able to be with you the way that a husband and wife should be . [ sighs ] okay , what is it ? what is it you 're thinking about right now ? hope : i think you know . it 's liam . liam : ah , man . i -- i love that you want to do this for me . and i -- and i wish you could . i wish with all my heart that beth was still alive , and you could take me to her . but -- douglas : i can . liam : mnh - mnh . no , because beth -- beth is ... beth is in heaven . right ? kind of like your mom . so ... just , no more talk about baby beth , especially around hope , okay ? steffy : what 's going on ? douglas : we were talking about baby beth . katie : hope does not love thomas the way a wife should love her husband . brooke : i just feel so bad for her . all of her conflicting feelings . there 's still so much pain there . and thomas slipping a wedding band on her finger is n't gon na make it go away . she 's just gon na take all that into the marriage . it 's doomed from the start . flo : yeah . i mean , she 's just been sacrificing so much for douglas and the -- and the girls . donna : speaking of which , what phoebe did during that ceremony , crawling up to hope and saying `` mama `` over and over , i just ... i can only imagine what hope was feeling at that moment . [ sighs ] brooke : sometimes babies do things that are unpredictable . but in that case [ sighs ] i mean , hope has always felt a connection with phoebe . something that she ca n't really explain . maybe phoebe feels that , too . katie : well , that would explain the little girl 's attachment . but why would she got to hope and call her mama ? i mean , steffy was standing right there . why would she say that to hope ? thomas : i 'm your husband . and , um , i 've gone to all this trouble to create this romantic setting for us , and you 're telling me you 're thinking about liam ? hope : you asked me what was holding me back . thomas : what else can i do to make you want me the way that i want you ? hope : [ sighs ] thomas ... you 've already done so much . and i appreciate all of it , especially bringing douglas into my life , and giving me the chance to be a mother to your little boy -- thomas : okay , can we not talk about douglas ? steffy : you were talking about beth ? douglas : hope misses her a lot . liam : yeah , we all do , buddy . douglas : are they up ? steffy : uh , well , phoebe was a little restless , but they 're -- they 're still resting . douglas : can i go see ? steffy : uh , yeah . yeah , for it . liam : [ sighs ] steffy : are you okay ? i know how difficult it is for you to talk about beth . liam : um ... something really weird just happened . douglas said something . and it does n't make any sense , but ... he was , like , adamant about it . steffy : what ? liam : i -- it 's -- it 's not -- it 's not true , okay . it 's not true . but ... you should have seen the look on the kid 's face . i mean , he was -- he was so sure of himself . [ sighs ] steffy : liam , wh - what are -- what are you talking about ? what did my nephew say ? liam : douglas said that beth is alive . brooke : hope just said that she wanted to pick up phoebe and hold her as if she were beth . and it 's so hard , because it 's only been a few months since she lost her daughter , but still , all that pain and that longing and that emptiness is still there . and she ca n't get past it . you know , as much as she wants to be a mother to douglas , she still has a lot to work through . and thomas does n't understand that . if he did , he would n't have forced this marriage upon her . katie : well , thomas is n't known for his patience . brooke : yeah . [ sighs ] that concerns me , his expectations of his new wife . donna : obviously something he 's hoping to happen tonight . brooke : and what if it does n't ? what then ? how 's he going to react ? given the past . flo : what do you mean ? brooke : oh , well , thomas has a history of instabilities . donna : which is my sister 's nice way of saying that thomas has been known to ... fly off the handle . katie : well , it 's more than that . he 's done things . he set your son 's house on fire . flo : what ? brooke : yeah . katie : i mean , that was a lot of years ago , but ... brooke : i still see the same flashes of insecurities there , even now . and that 's why i 'm so concerned for my daughter . hope : how can i not think about douglas ? when i committed to you , i committed to your little boy , too . thomas : i know . i did n't -- i did n't mean it that way . it 's just that i - i -- i just thought maybe we could have one night . a night together as newlyweds . and i - i do n't think that 's selfish , do you ? you know , where we have one night where we do n't talk about or think about anyone else , including douglas . i mean , he already gets so much attention as it is . hope : [ scoffs ] that is because he needs it . thomas : yeah -- hope : he 's been through a lot . thomas : yeah . yes , he -- he has . but ... we 're doing it again . we 're already back talking about douglas again . i ca n't have one conversation with you about something more important without it reverting -- okay , look . heh ... i love douglas . you know how much i love douglas . i - i need to make sure my focus is on you , too . i 'm your husband now , right ? i - i ca n't neglect you . [ exhales softly ] you are my beautiful , sexy wife . we ca n't neglect each other . i love you so much it hurts . steffy : douglas said beth is alive ? liam : mm - hmm . i mean , first , he said it to hope and me . and then he just -- he just said it again when you and thomas were in the nursery . steffy : he said that to hope , too ? liam : [ sighs ] yep . and ... i mean , you can imagine her reaction . steffy : oh , dear . liam : you know how painful it is for her to hear stuff like that . steffy : why on earth would douglas say something like that ? liam : i do n't know . i do n't know . but it was -- it was too much for hope , and she just ... split . steffy : is that why she went to wait in thomas ' car ? liam : yeah . steffy : [ inhales sharply ] liam : i mean -- yes , obviously i still have a problem with that . i - i know he 's your brother , and i know you love him , but let 's be honest , steffy . there are only two reasons she 's mrs . thomas forrester right now -- douglas and beth . i did n't have to shout out for help . flo : oh , my god . thomas pushed rick out of a window ? katie : well , it -- [ sighs ] it was n't quite like that . i mean , he -- he shoved rick . and , actually , it was that window up there . rick went through , and he fell into the bushes below . brooke : and luckily my son was n't killed or seriously injured -- flo : but he could have been . donna : but it was a long time ago . supposedly he 's , you know , dealt with these `` issues `` and he 's not that guy anymore . flo : what if he is that same guy , though ? what if he has n't changed at all , and he just wants everyone to believe that he has , including hope ? i - i -- i need to go . katie : what ? where are you -- wait . flo : i - i -- i need to -- brooke : where are you going ? katie : flo ! flo : i ca n't take this anymore ! katie : flo ! what ... ? thomas : do n't stop . hope : [ sighs ] [ gasps ] [ breathing heavily ] thomas : you ca n't keep doing this to me . hope : i 'm sorry . i just -- i -- i ca n't help what i 'm -- what i 'm feeling . i ca n't help what i 'm thinking . i ca n't help thinking about liam and beth and the life we were supposed to have . i -- thomas : seriously ? you 're going there now ? i 'm trying to show you how much i love you , and you -- you -- you 're gon na talk about -- look , i 'll say this one last time . liam is in your past , okay ? you need to accept that . and you need to accept that beth is gone . your daughter 's never coming back , hope . thomas : phoebe 's beth . beth is phoebe . no one is going to know that baby beth is alive . understood ? i got to go . douglas : you said beth is alive . thomas : stop saying that . i 'm your father , and i will be obeyed . what did i tell you to do ? douglas : to not say what i heard . thomas : what you think you heard . okay ? you ca n't say beth 's name ever again . not to me . not to anyone . douglas : beth . i know you 're beth . steffy : i do n't get it . douglas saying beth is alive ? like , where would he get that idea ? liam : pfff . i - i do n't know . but he was -- you should have seen him . he was so ... sure of it . steffy : i 'll talk to him . douglas should n't be saying stuff like that . i know it 's hurtful . liam : that 's the thing , steffy . like , the kid knows it 's hurtful . steffy : then why would he say it ? like , what possible reason does he have ? liam : i do n't know . and then ... and then he says that he can take me to beth . steffy : what ? liam : i mean , it 's not true . you know , and i - i told him it 's not true . but he was so ... confident about it . like ... steffy : liam , i know this is hard for you . i - i wish i had an explanation . liam : yeah , i wish i had an explanation , too . i mean , listen , i - i love the kid , i care for the kid , i feel for him . but i told him he ca n't -- he ca n't be talking about beth -- steffy : liam , what is it ? where is douglas ? steffy : he 's with the girls , remember ? liam : hey . douglas , what are you doing ? hey , hey , hey . douglas . douglas : beth . liam : no . buddy , hey . listen ... that 's phoebe . douglas : that 's baby beth . liam : you got to -- hey . you have to stop this . you have to stop . that is not beth . that is phoebe . douglas : it 's beth . phoebe is baby beth . [ phoebe babbling ]
liam continues to talk to douglas that what he is saying is not possible . beth is not alive . douglas keeps saying she is ; he can prove it . he can take liam to see her . liam continues that he ca n't because beth is in heaven kind of like his mom . steffy comes in and interrupts this baby talk . thomas keeps trying to kiss hope while she pulls back and wipes the taste of his kiss from her lips . after several attempts she tells him she is sorry . she knows he has expectations but she just ca n't . he tells her that he loves her and this is torture so she needs to try . he wants to know what she is thinking now and is more than disappointed when she truthfully says liam . the logan girls meet up with flo at forrester and all agree that hope does not love thomas the way she does liam so they can only imagine what hope is feeling right now with thomas whisking her away to a hotel so he can have alone time with his wife . thomas tells hope that he is her husband and he went to all this trouble to make a very romantic setting and now she tells him she is thinking of liam . while douglas goes to check on the girls , liam tells steffy that something weird happened and douglas is adamant about it . he is so sure of himself and that beth is alive . the gals keep saying they are afraid of thomas 's expectations of his wife , especially since he has instability issues . thomas explains to hope that he did not think one night with her on a quick honeymoon was too much to ask , even away from douglas . but he can not say one word without her wanting to think of liam . he calls her beautiful and sexy and manages to kiss her again with her trying to hold him at bay . liam tells steffy that you can imagine hope 's reaction when douglas said this and she split . and he wants to be honest with her , the only reason that hope is mrs. thomas forrester right now is douglas and beth .

brooke tells nick that she supposedly loves him . she wants to hear the same back , but all he can say is how he loves her appearance . then he goes on and on about caring for something . brooke says he should go be with her . nick says it 's the `` sea `` . she tackles him down ( kidding around ) since she thought he meant another woman . he finally tells her that she 's his `` sea `` ( as in he loves her back ) . it gets dark as he 's gathering firewood . he stops to put a coat ( it looks like ) over sleeping brooke . stephanie is visited by the man who stole nick 's boat . they talk while ridge listens . he finds out the whole situation . the guy is not a plumber and will not take the $ since he 's nick 's friend ( and somewhat a practical jokester ) . ridge is angry and tells stephanie off . then he grabs the guy 'cause he 's going to take him to the channel islands ( where brooke is ) . amber tells thorne he has to stop macy from marrying deacon . he realizes this will make the restraining order void and she 's doing this to get back at brooke . she may even take little eric & hope from their families . also they figured out dropping the order probably wo n't do any good . deacon is at his place and surprises macy with a gigantic ring . she loves it . he says they may be an odd couple but he wants to do things right . he proposes to her and she accepts ! they 're happy and wants to spend the first day of their new life together cleaning or loving each other . the doorbell rings and it 's thorne ! deacon does n't look surprised . back on the island , ridge flashes his flashlight on nick and brooke sleeping together . ridge is not happy .

bridget : it 's not too late for breakfast . or an early lunch . croissants . dante : thanks . bridget : i know it 's not the greatest olive branch , but -- dante : not hungry . bridget : so , you 're still upset ? dante : you said you do n't want to have a baby with me . bridget : dante , i did n't mean ever , i just meant right now . look , i know that a bag of pastries and an apology are n't going to solve our problems , but i 'm here . can we please try to work this out ? eric : how 's it going down here ? stephanie : oh , we 're just about all set up . felicia : you do n't look very enthusiastic , daddy . eric : no . well , no offense to donna , but ridge and brooke are the bedroom line . losing both of them could be devastating . if she can not convince ridge to stay on , this whole thing might be history . donna : you 're really glad you ran into me last night ? ridge : yes , i am . donna : because i 've been a little worried . about things i said . about the role you played in my life . i can only imagine how i came across . ridge : donna , what happened last night was exactly what i needed . i 've spent far too much time licking my own wounds and feeling sorry for myself . brooke : ridge ! excuse me , donna . you ca n't just stop designing the bedroom line . i can understand why you would want to . because it 's our baby . but this is a critical time for the company . we need you just to stay on for a little while longer until we can find a new designer . ridge : i 'm not quitting , logan . i 've changed my mind . brooke : so , you are going to keep designing for brooke 's bedroom ? ridge : for as long as you need me . brooke : oh , thank god . i 'm so relieved . i do n't think you know , but we need your expertise now more than ever . and i also do n't think you heard , i hired donna to be our new spokesperson . ridge : she told me last night . brooke : oh . ridge : in fact , she 's the reason i 'm going to continue designing this line . donna : i hope it was n't a secret or anything like that -- brooke : oh , well no , no . i just do n't know what she said , little sister , but thank you . donna : oh no , thank you . i mean , both of you . this is an amazing opportunity for me . ridge : one you 're going to take full advantage of . providing brooke and i can sell it to the press now . brooke : do you really think it will work ? ridge : i 'm going to make sure of it . bridget : look , i do n't blame you for being angry . you said , let 's not wait to get married , let 's start a family , and i agreed . dante : and you said that having a baby would be wonderful . bridget : i really thought it would be . i wanted it to be . when i got the test results , and i found out that i was n't pregnant . i do n't know why i was just relieved . honey , i 'm just being honest and telling you how i feel . dante : well , i was disappointed . bridget : i probably just need some time to think . dante : how long am i supposed to wait ? huh ? we 've been so much already . look what we did to felicia . i practically dumped her at the altar because we could n't live without each other . so , if that 's not how you feel about me -- you know what ? there 's a press conference in the showroom . i got ta go . danica : you 're sure the invitation said to meet in the showroom , right ? sophie : the forresters have big news . they 're certainly not making a lot of noise about it . jarrett : do n't worry . if brooke says it 's big , it will be . make - up artist : you look perfect . donna : thank you . stephanie : hello , donna . donna : stephanie . stephanie : you look beautiful . donna : just stopping by to wish me luck ? stephanie : no , actually i was hoping that i could talk you into bowing out . donna : quit ? stephanie : donna , you are a beautiful , young woman . but you have never done any modeling . you do n't know anything about it . donna : well , neither did my sister . but she 's made you millions of dollars . stephanie : you do n't have any experience whatsoever . ridge : but i do . i think donna has a wonderful future . stephanie : doing what ? i mean , how are you going to continue the line ? how are we going to continue the line if you are n't going to design ? ridge : i decided to stay on . stephanie : well , that 's wonderful . what happened to our conversation last night ? ridge : mother , i just did n't want to produce substandard work . that 's all . donna taking brooke 's place in this , it 's not really an issue anymore . brooke : the reporters are here . and i do n't want to keep them waiting . there 's something i have to say . donna : i hope it 's a pep talk . ridge : hey , just relax and enjoy the ride . i just want to tell all of you how much this line truly means to me . donna : no pressure . brooke : and i 'm leaving it in good hands . in that regard , i have no reservations stepping down as spokesperson . i really wish i did n't have to make that decision . however , i will be working from marone industries . my heart will be here with all of you . stephanie : let 's not get all teary eyed . why do n't you just give us back the stock , and we will call it a clean break . brooke : that will never happen , stephanie . because in spite of your negativity , forrester creations has become a home for me . and it 's going to become a home for my sister , as well . felicia : hey , how are you ? dante : reporters , okay . felicia : you want to talk someplace else ? dante : good idea . stephanie : hello , dante . come to watch the train wreck ? felicia : glad to see that you are staying positive , mother . stephanie : would you excuse us for just one moment ? i want to talk to her . dante : sure . stephanie : thank you . dante : you 're welcome . reporter : mr. damino , can we have a word ? stephanie : what 's up with you and dante ? felicia : he 's just -- going through something . stephanie : he 's sleeping with your sister . felicia : since when is something like that ever been a problem in our family ? stephanie : i know you . when you get strong feelings for someone , you get obsessive . felicia : it 's fine . i 'm fine . and you have way more important things to worry about . brooke : hello , everybody ! thank you for joining us today . danica : so , um , brooke , where is everybody ? brooke : i 'm giving you an exclusive . i 'm making some changes in the direction of brooke 's bedroom . but because of the recent tragedy in the forrester family , i did n't think it would be appropriate to have a huge fanfare . so , as of today , i am stepping down as the spokesperson for the bedroom line . sophie : stepping down ? brooke : well , brooke 's bedroom will continue to be one of forrester creation 's most lucrative and most popular ventures . however , my image will no longer be used . jarrett : well , your image just made the `` brooke 's bedroom or nothing at all `` campaign the most successful marketing effort in forrester history . brooke : nothing like going out on top . danica : why would you change the strategies now though ? i mean , sales are through the roof . brooke : thanks to the bedroom line , forrester creations is in the middle of an incredible resurgence . that is why i need to focus my energy on my duties as ceo . so , that brings me to my second announcement . i would like to introduce to you the new face of the bedroom line . she is a very beautiful , very alluring woman . and she is going to do justice to ridge forrester 's designs . my sister , donna logan . jarrett : so , donna , what qualifies you to be the new spokesmodel ? i mean , besides being related to the boss ? brooke : donna appeals to our target market , because she is our target market , jarrett . sophie : you 're marketing your line to models ? brooke : donna is a waitress . that is , until she got this job . danica : donna , how did you get this job ? donna : well , um , actually -- ridge : would n't you rather know why she got ? out of all the beautiful women in the world , why would brooke chose her own sister ? jarrett : yes , i would . ridge : because the spokesperson for brooke 's bedroom ca n't just wear my designs . she has to embody the vision . the vision inspired by brooke logan . brooke : and just like me and our customers , donna is very hard - working , very savvy woman who knows how toare of herself . just like she knows how to take care of her mate . [ light laughter ] danica : donna , how does it feel to step into your sister 's shoes ? jarrett : you mean , slip into her sheets ? [ light laughter ] donna : well , it 's a little overwhelming . but ridge gave me some good advice . just relax and enjoy the ride . jarrett : is that how you 're handling brooke 's defection , ridge ? ridge : brooke has n't gone anywhere , jarrett . jarrett : yes , but the bedroom line has always been about you and brooke . she was your inspiration , your muse . can you design a successful line without her ? ridge : my inspiration comes from beautiful women . donna logan is definitely that . sophie : what about the slogan , `` brooke 's bedroom or nothing at all ? `` jarrett : it 's not brooke 's bedroom anymore . ridge : okay , okay . how about a new slogan , then ? `` forrester has a new logan , donna logan . `` [ applause ] ( female announcer ) remember the mouth - wateringtastes of the old farmstand ? donna : i was terrible . ridge : you were not . donna : the way you and brooke just stay so cool while they are firing questions at you . ridge : when brooke started , she was nervous , too . donna : yeah , the way she handled jarrett . i mean , she was still talking to him when we left . ridge : i think he has crush on her . donna : they were all more interested in what 's going on with you and brooke . ridge : that 's what happens when you live your whole relationship in front of the media . donna : it could n't have been easy for you to answer those questions . ridge : well , you just have to answer instead of having them speculate . remember that . be honest . be yourself . and you 'll knock'em dead . e all right , go put these on and let 's get to work . donna : i ca n't wait . felicia : alone at last . so , tell me what happened at home when you got home last night with bridget . did you guys figure anything out ? dante : i actually did n't go home . i slept in the studio . felicia : you should 've said something . i would have stayed . dante : look , i 'm just working things out with bridget , that 's all . felicia : if you really thought you could work things out , you would have gone home . dante : i just needed some time , that 's all . felicia : for what ? all because yodid n't want go home reeking of guilt ? dante : i have nothing to feel guilty for . felicia : exactly . the only person that has any reason to feel guilty is bridget . playing with your emotions this way . dante : she 's not . felicia : are you kidding me ? dante , she knows you want to start a family . she knew that the day we were set to be married . and now , she 's telling you , she does n't want to have a baby with you . dante : for now . felicia : oh , then when ? since the two of you met , she 's been putting you off . that 's no way to live , dante . believe me . happiness should never wait until tomorrow . ridge : if you 're looking for donna , she just want to change . brooke : no , i 'm looking for you . ridge : i think she did very well on her first press conference . brooke : yeah , she did fine . were you just trying to hurt me , ridge ? ridge : hurt you ? how ? brooke : you 've got a new logan ? ridge : forrester has got a new logan . the company . brooke : when i was downstairs answering all these questions about your involvement with donna . like , is she your new muse ? is she the new me ? ridge : she is the new you . for the ad campaign . brooke : so , it 's that easy to replace me ? ridge : what 's going on here , logan ? they just asked for a new slogan . i came up with the first thing that popped into my head . brooke : deep down you want to get back at me . ridge : no . but i think i 'd be justified if i did . brooke , it was your decision to not model for the new bedroom line . to be away from me , from our future . i tried to do everything i could to convince you not to give up on us . but you decided to marry nick anyway . now , i 'm just trying to make the best of it . brooke : you know how much brooke 's bedroom means to me . how hard it was for me to give that up . ridge : do you think it was easy for me to keep going with this . without you . i could n't imagine designing for anyone but you , brooke . donna finally convinced me that i could . not to hurt you or make you jealous . because i really love this work . brooke : yeah , well i love it , too . ridge : well , then -- god , i feel like i 'm damned if i do , and damned if i don't . brooke , what do you want from me ? tell me . what do you want ? donna : are you ready for me , ridge ?
in the show room at forrester 's , donna reflects on her recent conversation with ridge where she told him she wanted to be there for him ; let her be his logan ! he walks in and asks if she is excited about her big debut ? he is not having second thoughts ; they will make a great team . brooke does n't know he 's changed his mind and she tells eric that she has to convince ridge to stay . eric tells stephanie and felicia that if brooke ca n't convince ridge to stay on , this whole thing might be history . donna apologizes to ridge for things she might have said or the way it might have come across what happened last night . he replies that it was just what he needed . he has spent too much time licking his wounds and feeling sorry for himself . brooke barges in on their conversation hoping to change his mind and is shocked when he tells her he already has . she picks up on some small vibes between sister and ridge .

[ scene_break ] stephanie : it 's not too late at all . i 'm delighted to see you . ashley : i doubt you 'll feel that way when i tell you why i 'm here . stephanie : why ? what happened ? ashley : something horrible , actually . the situation , i handled it very badly . stephanie : well , we 've all been swamped at work . things are bound to fall through the cracks . ashley : it 's about ridge and me . i know how happy you 've been that we were seeing each other . stephanie : you know , i realized that we 're working the two of you just too much and i think you should have some quality time . so , i had an idea . you know the fashion show in paris next week -- ashley : ridge and i broke up , stephanie . stephanie : when ? ashley : tonight . tonight . i kept some information from him that i should n't have concerning a man in my past . stephanie : why would that cause a problem ? oh , i see , he 's still a part of your life . ashley : it 's rick . stephanie : oh . ashley : rick . [ scene_break ] taylor : rick and ashley have been seeing each other behind phoebe 's back ? brooke : ridge , i had no idea . taylor : i thought you and ashley were involved ? ridge : not anymore . brooke : you broke it off with her ? ridge : look , that 's not what i asked you to come here to talk about . i 'm worried about phoebe now . taylor : well , she has to be devastated . i wish you would let me be there when you told her . ridge : she 's the one that told me . brooke : how did she find out ? ridge : rick confessed . their time in paris . the trip to mexico . she says that she 's through with him , but i do n't think rick 's going to accept that . taylor : no , he probably wo n't . ridge : it is over for them now . he deceived her . and he does n't deserve a second chance . it 's up to us to make sure he does n't get one . [ scene_break ] [ rick remembering ] rick : phoebe , i just -- phoebe : stop ! rick : i want you to know . phoebe : i said stop ! my god , rick , you 're standing there telling me that you and ashley slept together after we 've been broken up for what ? 48 hours ? i mean , how could what we have mean so little to you that you just -- i mean , unless you were thinking about being with her this whole time because you could -- you could , you could be with her like you could n't be with me because she could give you what you needed . rick : phoebe , no -- phoebe , it was n't like that . please . please , phoebe , stop . bridget : hey . rick : bridget , can i -- can i use your phone ? bridget : what 's wrong with yours ? rick : um , phoebe is not exactly answering my calls . and maybe if she thinks it 's you , then she 'll -- she 'll pick up . bridget : did you two get in a fight ? rick : i had to tell phoebe about -- about ashley and me . bridget : oh , my goodness , rick . i 'm so sorry -- rick : i know , i know . and she says she ca n't forgive me , but bridget , she has to . there has to be some way that i can get her back . because i ca n't lose her . i just ca n't . bridget : rick , who told phoebe ? rick : i did . bridget : you ? i thought we agreed you were n't going to say anything . rick : i know , but keeping it from phoebe was a very bad idea . you know what ? i should have told her the day i got back from mexico . bridget : the day that her father went to jail for killing shane ? rick : regardless , i should have told her sooner , okay ? bridget : well , then you might have just lost her sooner -- rick : i have n't -- i 'm sorry . i will not lose her . you know what i keep thinking about ? maybe -- maybe if i had more time . you know what i mean ? if i had more time to -- to think about how i was going to tell her . so maybe the truth would n't sound so bad . bridget : rick , you had sex with another woman the day after phoebe broke up with you -- it 's pretty bad . and it was n't just any woman . it was an older , more sophisticated woman that you already had a sexual history -- rick : okay , okay , okay -- okay , so maybe there was no good way to tell the truth . but you know what ? i should have told her anyway . that 's what you do -- that 's what you do when you love someone , right ? bridget : there 's also something to be said about sparing their feelings . rick : well , the truth was going to come out anyway , okay ? ashley wanted to be honest with ridge about the whole thing . bridget : oh . rick : bridget , i know i blew it . i know that i messed things up . but i have to believe that i can fix this . bridget : rick , not everything can be fixed . rick : well , it 's not going to happen again . that 's for sure . bridget : i just wonder why it happened in the first place . i know that you think you love phoebe and you 're desperate to get her back . but honestly , i mean , rick , why did mexico even happen ? rick : it 's hard for me to explain . what i feel for ashley , it 's like -- it 's chemical , you know -- no , i 'm serious . listen to me . sometimes , i think it 's love . but it 's not the kind of love that i have for phoebe . i mean , that 's real . it 's definitely not what i 'm feeling right now . bridget : oh , desperation and panic ? rick : you know that saying , `` you do n't know what you got until it 's gone ? `` bridget : well , yeah . that summed up my life for awhile . listen , i know what i 'm talking about here . you need to give phoebe some time to process this . you ca n't just expect her to forgive you overnight . rick : she will forgive me . she has to . bridget , you do n't understand . phoebe , she 's it for me . i have to get her back . i 'm going to go to the house . bridget : ridge 's ? rick : yep . bridget : honey , he 's not going to let you anywhere near phoebe right now . rick : well , he 's going to have to try to stop me . [ scene_break ] stephanie : you and rick ? ashley : yeah . he was interested in developing a fragrance for forrester international . stephanie : so , it was more than just a business relationship and that 's really the reason that you wanted to come work at our company . you wanted to be close to rick . ashley : not completely . but yeah , i wanted to know where things stood . stephanie : you were still interested . ashley : then i found out that he was involved with phoebe and that 's where it ended . long before i ever got involved with ridge . stephanie : well , i can understand why ridge would be taken aback . plus there 's so much animosity between those two . but why ? i mean , that 's not enough of a reason to break up with you . unless that 's not where it ended . ashley : i wish it had . stephanie : you sleep with him while you were in los angeles ? ashley : in mexico . it was just one night . rick and phoebe were n't together . it was that day that ridge confessed . stephanie : you took a long time to tell him . ashley : i did n't tell him . phoebe did . stephanie : oh . ashley : i know . i wanted to tell him . i had every intention of telling him . phoebe talked to rick and she got to ridge first . stephanie : that poor baby girl . ashley : right . so even if ridge could forgive me for not being totally honest about what happened with rick , he 's never going to forgive me for hurting his daughter . [ scene_break ] ridge : i hate that it had to turn out this way . but i 'm relieved that phoebe 's finally free of rick . taylor : so am i . ridge : i just do n't want him coming around trying to make inroads with her . brooke : is taking a hard line really what phoebe needs right now ? ridge : i 'm sorry , brooke . the last time you asked me to sort of let them be , they wound up in the honeymoon suite . brooke : well , did you even hear rick 's side of the story ? ridge : phoebe 's side is the only side that concerns me . taylor : i really want to talk to her , ridge . ridge : she 's up in her room , but i do n't think she wants to talk to anybody . brooke : if rick really did what you say , it was a mistake . one i 'm sure he regrets . ridge : brooke , he broke her heart . just like i knew he would . her first boyfriend should have been somebody her own age at least . brooke : ridge , the end of a relationship is painful no matter how old you are . rick : there 's no end to any relationship . phoebe and i are not over -- taylor : rick , you can not be here . rick : i need to see phoebe right now -- ridge : it 's not going to happen , rick . brooke : is it true ? you and ashley ? rick : yes , yes . it 's true . ashley and i , we had something in paris , okay ? and the feelings resurfaced when phoebe broke up with me . but it 's behind us now and phoebe needs to know that . ridge : phoebe knows all she needs to know , rick . rick : you know what , ridge , phoebe and i are going to get past this . and you 're not going to stand in our way . ridge : i 'm not the one standing in your way , rick . we all are . [ scene_break ] stephanie : this is exactly why ridge did not want that little girl involved with an older man . ashley : no , rick loves her . i know you do n't want to hear that , but he 's as devastated about this as she is . stephanie : well , he should be . and not just because what he did is unforgivable . but because of what he 's created between you and ridge . ashley : you 're not hearing me . they have something special . if i did n't believe that before , i do now . he 's determined to get her back , stephanie . stephanie : listen , if you want to get ridge back , do n't ever say that to him . ashley : he 's finished with me . he is . that 's why i 'm going to my office . i 'm going to pack up my things . i 'm not going to fight the termination of my contract , okay ? i just -- i 'm so sorry i caused you and ridge and phoebe pain -- stephanie : you 're just babbling . stop it . ashley : that 's all i came to say -- stephanie : stop it . stop . it 's not over , ashley . [ scene_break ] rick : so , you 're all in agreement over this , huh ? you too , mom ? brooke : go home , honey . give everybody a chance to regroup . this wound is so fresh -- rick : sorry , i just ca n't do that . if i let this go now -- ridge : you and phoebe are done . you are going to let it go , rick : no , i ca n't do that . phoebe means way too much to me . taylor : oh , really ? then , what were you doing with ashley abbott ? and i want an honest answer , rick . you know , i 've talked to phoebe about this relationship at length . and maybe she was a little too trusting , but that 's because you gave her reason to be . in fact , you told all of us here that you would never do anything at all to hurt phoebe . rick : taylor , if you would just give me a chance to explain things to phoebe , she will understand . ridge : no , rick , because it 's over . rick : this is between your daughter and me , ridge . this does n't concern you . it does n't have anything to do with any of you . ridge : the hell it does n't have anything to do with any of us -- brooke : honey , i backed you up . i thought you were serious about phoebe . rick : i am . i made a mistake , okay ? in the heat of the moment . who here in this room can say that they have n't done that ? in the heat of the moment , hurt somebody that they loved . it 's part of life , okay ? it 's a part of being human . but when you find out what you truly want , you have to do everything in your power to make sure that you can make it work . and you ca n't give up until you 've done everything you can . and i 'm not at that point . phoebe is . rick : well , taylor , then have your daughter come down here , look me in the eye , and tell me that herself . ridge : so you can try to win her back ? forget it , rick . rick : ridge , you said she 's done with me . so , what the hell are you so worried about ? phoebe : he 's worried i 'm still vulnerable to you . ridge : sweetie , you 've been through a lot tonight . let me handle this . phoebe : i wish you could . i wish someone could take this pain away . rick : i can . but you have to let me try . phoebe , please . i did this to you . this is my fault . i caused you this pain but i can make it better . i can take it away . but you have to let me try . you got to give me a chance . look at me . ca n't you see what this is doing to me ? it 's the same thing was when i told you about ashley . all that light and love in your eyes , it just disappeared . it went away . but phoebe , it was in that moment that i realized how much i love you . how truly precious you are to me . all those times that you said you needed me . i need you . i need you now more than i 've ever needed anybody in my entire life .

rick keeps hounding phoebe with phone calls wanting to see her . she maintains she is at her father 's and he would kill rick if he came over . she reminds him that he slept with another woman less than 48 hours after they broke up and she 's not going to forget that . she does n't even want to talk about it . ashley drops in on stephanie and warns her she has had a terrible day ; things she did n't handle well . she tells her it is about her and ridge . stephanie thinks they just need some more quality time , worked too hard . ashley confides they broke up , over another man that is still a part of her life . stephanie is even more shocked when she finds out it is rick . taylor and brooke hear from ridge also about it . he does n't think ashley deserves another second chance , and it 's up to them to make sure rick does n't get that chance with phoebe either . rick confides in bridget and vows that he has to get phoebe back . she has to forgive him , he ca n't lose her . she agrees there is something about telling the truth , but there is also a thing of sparing one 's feelings . he knows he messed up , but he ca n't help but believe he can fix this . he ca n't quite explain it , he loves phoebe , but he has this chemical thing with ashley .
donna : yes , marcus , i hear you . marcus : okay . so then give him a check and let him be on his way . donna : i understand you 're concerned . marcus : for you , mom . i 'm concerned for you . this guy has no business being in our lives . owen : i 'm concerned about her , too , marcus . marcus : right . i forgot , owen . you care about her . and we 're supposed to just believe you after the deal you cut with felicia , right ? owen : look , that was a mistake . i admitted it , and i came clean . marcus : ( scoffs ) donna : he did n't have to do that , marcus . and since then , owen has proven himself . marcus : the only thing he has proven is that he can talk his way into a job , a massive job , in fact -- being your personal assistant . donna : he earned that job . marcus : how , mom ? how did he earn the job ? donna : you already know this . i -- he found the power of attorney document . he -- he supported me . he 's given me good advice . marcus : well , he did all that after he was hired . that 's not what got him the job . we all know what got you the job , do n't we , owen ? his determination to seduce you . oh , when that did n't happen , what does he do ? he confesses . i mean , what else could he do ? he knew that felicia no , ma , this guy is bad news . you do n't need him . tell him to leave now , please . mom . donna : ( quietly ) i will discuss this privately with owen . marcus : oh , come on , mom . do n't let him talk you out of this . donna : ( sighs ) owen , come with me , please .

[ scene_break ] owen : may i say something ? donna : please , by all means . owen : it 's pretty obvious that your son does n't trust me . donna : look , he 's just so protective of me , wh -- which is wonderful , considering what a short time we 've known each other . owen : it is wonderful . but just so you know , donna , you do n't owe me anything . donna : it 's very kind of you to say -- owen : no , it 's true . i mean it . and if you want me to go , then i will go . but i still mean what i said . i 'm crazy about you . [ scene_break ] katie : oh , you have no idea how much your aunt katie has missed you . bridget : oh , yes , he does . he misses you a lot . katie : you do ? you miss me just a little bit ? nick : he does . he told me that just the other day . katie : you know , your dad lies like a rug . do n't take after him . bridget : oh , it 's a little too late for that . katie : ( laughs ) bridget : he 's already taken after his daddy . he 's so smooth with the ladies . nick : come on , buddy . katie : i noticed that . nick : time for bed . katie : oh , time for bed . here we go . nick : here , i 'll take him . there we go . can i have that magical toy that keeps him quiet ? katie : yes , there 's the magic toy . nick : there you go . katie : maybe we 'll do something fun this weekend like go to the zoo . bridget : oh , he would love that . nick : say good night to the girls . good night . good night , girls katie : bye . good night . bridget : good night . nick : goodnight , girls . katie : he 's such a great kid . bridget : he 's the only thing that keeps me grounded these days . katie : how 's your dad doing ? bridget : there was no change tonight . katie : well , i 'm sure you 're doing everything you can . bridget : yeah , it 's just so frustrating because it 's not enough . katie : maybe he just needs a little more time . bridget : maybe , but that 's something that we do n't have . you know , the more time he spends in a coma , the less likely it will be that he ... katie : well , you ca n't give up hope . bridget : i know . i 'm not going to , but it is just -- it 's so scary . i mean , i 'm holding on to every single minute , every hour . that time that passes , it just diminishes the hope that he 's gon na be able to come out of the coma , and time is the enemy . we need results right now . katie : bridget , you can not take this all on yourself . you 're not alone in this . bridget : i know , but that 's how i feel . and i just feel so helpless . katie : you 've got thorne and felicia and donna and -- and most importantly , you have nick . and you have me , too . bridget : thanks . katie : do n't thank me . lean on me . you do n't have to be the strong one . i 'm here for you . [ scene_break ] brooke : you 're saying that owen has feelings for donna ? marcus : so he claims . brooke , the guy should n't even be here after the deal he cut with felicia . brooke : no , i know . ( sighs ) that bothers me , too . i do n't even know what owen 's story is . i do n't know anything about him . did you invite him here to l.a. ? marcus : no . no , supposedly he came here to collect his fee from tracking down my mom . next thing you know , i see him at nick 's and bridget 's party , uninvited . then he shows up with a gift for eric , some designer special bottle of gin . i mean , the guy does n't know diddly - squat about eric forrester , but he has time to figure out that he likes gin martinis ? what does that tell you ? brooke : that he has an agenda . marcus : exactly . brooke : but the question what is that agenda ? marcus : i do n't know . but he sure is leaving us some clues -- worming his way into my mom 's life , becoming her personal assistant . now all of a sudden , he 's claiming that he has `` feelings `` for her ? she 's a married lady . brooke : i know it 's nice of you to be concerned , marcus , but nobody 's gon na take advantage of donna . she showed us that today . marcus : yeah , maybe so . there 's something that you do n't know . someone broke into my mom 's house , rifled through her bedroom . brooke : what ? marcus : i think it may have been owen . [ scene_break ] owen : hey , i do n't mean to make you feel uncomfortable . donna : look , i 'm not . but i can see why marcus is concerned . owen : me , too . you have n't known me very long . i could very well be that person that 's he 's describing . donna : but you are n't ? owen : ( chuckles ) no , i 'm not . but i will tell you that when i first came here to forrester , i was -- i was dazzled , yes , by everything . donna : yeah , it is a bit overwhelming -- the wealth and lifestyle , the people . i felt the same way at first . owen : but mostly , i was blown away by you . donna : me ? owen : you were nothing like the person that felicia made you out to be . and that 's what changed everything for me . you were sweet and kind . donna : you were expecting a home - wrecking witch ? owen : ( laughs ) well , that is the picture that she painted . donna : ( sighs ) owen : but now i look at you , and i see your loyalty . i see your strength in the face of so many adversities . and i feel this need to -- to want to help you through it . donna : why ? owen : because you deserve it . you are a beautiful , honest , sincere person , and it 's a shame that you have to fight this family when your only crime is that you love their father so deeply . you have earned everything that you 've got , and i want to help you keep it . donna , i 'm here for you for whatever you need . [ scene_break ] marcus : you know , something does n't add up . okay , owen goes to my mom 's , claims someone broke in , says he cleans the house up , but did n't bother to call the police . brooke : you 're saying that owen staged a break - in ? is he capable of that ? marcus : he 's capable of getting what he wants , brooke . brooke : and what does he want with donna ? really ? marcus : that 's the million - dollar question . [ scene_break ] donna : you have been so protective of me . owen : that 's my job -- to have your back . donna : well , i certainly could use that nowadays . owen : i just wish marcus would trust me , or at least give me the benefit of the doubt here . donna : you know , i think he 's just jealous because wants to protect me . owen : donna , you are being attacked from all angles . you need all the protection that you can get . donna : still , perception is everything . owen : perception ? donna : well , now that what happened with you and felicia is public knowledge , people have to question me . owen : question what ? donna : why i have n't fired you . the fashion industry is just so full of gossip . owen : ( laughs ) donna , we have n't done anything wrong . and i would never put you in a position -- donna : no , i know . i know . it 's just -- ( sighs ) normally , i would n't care what people say behind my back , but with eric in the hospital unconscious , i have to be concerned about his image . i have to be concerned about what people are saying , because he ca n't defend himself . you understand my husband has to come first . owen : yes , definitely . donna : so maybe marcus is right . maybe it 's best if i let you go . [ scene_break ] nick : beautiful . beautiful dinner . beautiful dessert . beautiful company . katie : and i see you 're using your wedding china . bridget : mm . it 's actually our first time . katie : oh , i 'm honored . bridget : well , i figured , what 's more appropriate than using our wedding china with the person that married us ? katie : ( chuckles ) well , that was a special day . nick : special 's a good word . bridget : ( giggles ) katie : it 's great to see how happy you two are . seems like you 've been married forever . bridget : well , it is all because of you . katie : me ? bridget : yeah . i mean , we became so much closer when we were saving your life . katie : oh , well , i guess saving people 's lives will do that to you .

[ scene_break ] brooke : marcus , your mother loves eric deeply . she 's always gon na do what she feels is best for him . you can count on that . marcus : she 's not thinking clearly , brooke , and owen is taking vantage of her , saying all this crap about his feelings . i just hope my mom does n't buy it -- tells him to leave and never come back . [ scene_break ] donna : owen , i am so sorry , but it 's the only thing i can do , given how my son feels . we have your contact information in san diego , right ? owen : yes . personnel has it donna : well , then i 'll send you your final check and some severance pay . owen : come on , donna , you do n't have to do that , all right ? i have n't been here long enough for severance pay . donna : believe me , you deserve it . owen : i just wanted to do so much more for you . donna : you 've done plenty . owen : well , if you want me to go , then i 'll go , but i 'm not gon na lie to you . it has been a thrill helping you protect eric 's legacy and his fortune and being able to work so close to such a stunningly beautiful woman . it 's been the ride of my life . something powerful has happened to me , and i think it 's probably best that i do go instead of getting any deeper . so if you say it 's over , then it 's over . and if this is farewell and this is truly what you want , then i 'll accept it . all i want is for you to be happy . donna : well , you brought me back my son . owen : yeah . the last thing i 'd want to do is come between the two of you . so i 'm gon na grab my things and , um , i 'm gon na go . donna : ( sighs ) owen ? owen , i 'm so sorry . owen : do n't be . it 's been a trip getting to know you and taking care of all your needs . well , most of them , anyway . i just want you to know , i never meant to hurt you or cause you any trouble . a lot of things have happened this summer that i did n't expect . i adore you . owen : good - bye .
marcus does n't understand why donna wo n't send owen packing . she thinks owen has proven himself and he 's earned his job . marcus begs his mom to cut him a check and let him go . instead donna has owen take her home . he pretends to understand and even states that if she wants him to go , to smooth things between her and marcus , he will go . but he still means what he said , that he is crazy about her . he smooth talks her into believing that she deserves all she has attained lately and he wants to help her keep it . marcus confides in brooke about his suspicions and they both agree that no matter how nice owen appears , he has an agenda . donna does concede that she needs to protect her husband 's image and give attention to the fashion industry 's gossip . perhaps marcus is right and she really needs to let owen go .
liam : hope , look at me . i screwed up . i made the mistake of a lifetime , and i 'm asking you to forgive me . just do n't let this tear us apart , because i love you , and i want to be married to you . and i 'm just ... asking you to give us another chance . [ scene_break ] brooke : i would really like to believe that you wo n't take advantage . steffy : hope and liam 's marriage is n't official in the u.s. kind of a big oversight in your wedding planning . brooke : the question is , what are you going to do about it ? steffy : i never wanted hope to hear about anything that happened between liam and me in the first place . you are the one who kept interfering . liam took it as far as he could without trying to hurt hope . but now the truth is out . they know about the video . we all know everything , but i had nothing to do with it . brooke : and now that it 's out ? steffy : i just want hope to put everything that happened in the past and move on with her marriage . [ scene_break ] dayzee : god , i do n't believe this . what is taking so long ? caroline : it really has n't been that long . thomas : there 's probably just a lot of red tape . dayzee : you know what ? i do n't even know what we 're doing here . marcus is n't a criminal . thomas : justin will come through . he 'll get a bond hearing tonight and get you and marcus out of here . dayzee : ( sighs ) oh my god . man : sorry , no physical contact with the prisoner . i 'll be right outside .

[ scene_break ] brooke : i almost want to believe you . steffy : ( sighs ) except for ? brooke : except i ca n't get those images out of my mind . you were n't exactly being supportive of hope and liam when you were in that hotel room . steffy : i thought it was over for them , okay ? that she 'd left him for good . brooke : well , that 's convenient . there was liam . he was heartbroken , disillusioned , and you thought that might be a good time to make your move ? steffy : oh , you saw the video . you know that i was n't coming on to him or trying to trick him into coming back to me . no , he did that all on his own . brooke : you did n't have to encourage him . you could have made him stop and think . steffy : in the moment , i believed hope did n't deserve the consideration . she left him on their wedding day in a note . brooke : only it did n't happen that way . steffy : yes , we -- we know that now . and liam 's trying to make it right . brooke : i just do n't know if he can . i have to wonder . hope is devastated . steffy : then why do n't you help her ? make her understand how emotions can take over when there 's three people involved , when there 's a misunderstanding , exactly what happened in italy . liam loves her . i mean , he married her . maybe she should start having a little more faith in that . [ scene_break ] hope : if you had been with anybody else , it would have hurt , and it would have been hard to take , but at least i would have known it was meaningless . all the history , all the love you share with steffy -- that 's what i saw in the video . you 're still in love with her . you left that hotel room , and then , an hour later , pledged your love to me . hope : even if i could forgive you , how could i ever forget ? i do n't think i can . [ scene_break ] marcus : well , no , i just -- thomas : do you at least have your own holding cell ? justin : good news . bill 's calling in a favor . it looks like you might pull bond today after all . dayzee : ( sighs ) thomas : oh , yes . dayzee : fantastic . marcus : thanks , pop , really , for everything you 're doing for me , man . justin : you 're my son . i 'll always have your back . thomas : same here . dayzee : yeah . we all love you , marcus , especially me . marcus : ( sighs ) you know , it 's times like this when everything 's all crazy and hectic , you can always go to family and friends . okay , so what am i lookin ' at ? justin : aggravated reckless driving with a lesser count of texting while operating a motor vehicle . marcus : sentence ? thomas : hey , come on , man . you have n't been convicted of anything . marcus : thomas , i did the crime , okay ? and the police know it . justin : but , son , i - i needed you to shut your mouth on this one . marcus : well , i was n't gon na lie , pop . justin : yeah , i understand , but the point is to say nothing . marcus : yeah , and i know this . it -- it 's what you taught me . but i 'm not wired like that , okay ? i 'm not just gon na sit up there and lie about it . justin : okay . marcus : you know , i do something , i take full responsibility . dayzee : it 's true . i mean , you did . even in the situation , you did the right thing . you stopped . you called for help . he even rode with anthony in the ambulance . it 's clear you never meant to hurt anyone . marcus : but i did . and now there 's consequences . dayzee : ( sighs ) marcus : pop , you did n't answer me . what am i lookin ' at , man ? justin : marcus , this is to be determined by a presiding judge . we 're looking at 30 days to six months . marcus : six months ? justin : jail time now , yes . that 's the worst - case scenario . dayzee : i just do n't get it . he learned his lesson . what would be gained by having jail time ? lt . baker : do you know how many texts your husband sent and received that day ? 157 . now that 's way beyond just bein ' on the grid . now i 've got a hunch , a strong hunch , that more than one of them was sent from behind the wheel . [ scene_break ] brooke : hope has had faith in liam and in their love for each other . and she 's been disappointed more times than i care to remember . steffy : yeah , i think that 's called life . you know , i had to roll with the punches . so -- so did you . brooke : hope does n't see things the way you and i see things . she has different expectations . steffy : well , maybe hope needs to join the real world . human beings are flawed . we make mistakes , just like liam and i in italy . brooke : you almost had everything you always wanted . so you expect me to believe that what went on between you and liam in that hotel room was a mistake ? steffy : ( laughs ) you know , i - i -- i 've taken myself out of the running , remember ? liam went off to exchange vows with hope , and i wished them well . brooke : now that you know their marriage is n't valid , what do you intend to do with that ? steffy : what happens next is between hope and liam -- well , really hope , because liam is standing by his commitment . and to be honest , hope would be a fool not to forgive him . and , you know , if he comes back to me , i 'd take him in a heartbeat . [ scene_break ] liam : i 've always been honest with you about my feelings for steffy . hope : yeah , y - you 'll always have a love for her , and it 's one thing to hear you say those words , even -- even to see you in public -- the ... the smiles , the looks , the private jokes between the two of you , but i ... i think it really is a good thing that i saw that video . liam : what ? how can you say that ? hope : you want her . liam : no , i do n't . i want you . i 'm married to you . hope : liam , liam , you almost slept with steffy on our wedding day . you were leaving italy to start a new life with her . liam : because i thought i lost you . hope : ( sighs ) liam : i 'm not making an excuse . it was wrong for me to turn to steffy like that . hope : mm , yeah , and it was wrong of her to let you . liam : yes , hope , and we both know that now . look , i should have known that the letter was n't from you , that you would n't do that to me on our wedding day . and i -- and i 'm not making excuses . i take full responsibility for that . i just ... i just want you to wipe the slate clean . set the clock at when you were walking down those steps , hope . do you not remember , my beautiful bride , do you not remember the look in my eyes , the words i said to you during my vows ?

[ scene_break ] lt . baker : you got any idea how much texting you were doing that day ? marcus : no . lt . baker : oh , what ? that 's just normal for you ? 157 texts ? dayzee : it was the day before our wedding . he had a million things to take care of . lt . baker : i 'm talking to the groom . justin : pardon me . my son does not have to answer your questions , and as his attorney , i am advising him not to . marcus : if you 're making the point that my texting was out of control , then -- lt . baker : hey , i figured you 'd recognize that when you slammed into an innocent pedestrian . justin : lieutenant , i 'm asking if you can leave us alone . i would like to confer with my client . lt . baker : you and your rich , powerful friends . what happened ? could n't use all that spencer / forrester influence to get an immediate bond oh , your family will show up in the morning to take you home , take you back to that nice cozy lifestyle . ( sighs ) enjoy it while you can . i 'll see you in court . ( knock on door ) [ scene_break ] liam : hope ? brooke : she 's not here ? liam : she left . brooke : to go where ? liam : she did n't say . and i do n't know if she 's comin ' back . brooke : you ca n't be surprised that hope is devastated by what she saw with you and steffy . liam : uh , i - i tried . i tried to explain to her how it happened , how much i love her . i just could n't ... ( sighs ) i could n't get anywhere . she tore up our wedding papers . i do n't even know if she wants to be married anymore . [ scene_break ] steffy : hope , wait . hope : you have something you want to say to me ? steffy : i 'm sorry . [ scene_break ] dayzee : have you ever had a run - in with lieutenant baker ? marcus : never . dayzee : what is his problem ? marcus : i do n't know . maybe he had loved one that was , you know , hit by a reckless , distracted driver . reckless driver -- how did that ever become me , huh ? hitting someone , texting behind the wheel , hitting anthony . dayzee : it was one mistake , a mistake you 'll never make again . marcus : but it only takes one to mess up your life . i just thank god anthony 's okay . i mean , at least we can be grateful for that , right ? dayzee : yeah . marcus : but if i do n't get out of here -- dayzee : stop , do not say that , okay ? you 're not going to jail . you are coming home , and we are gon na start our life together . [ scene_break ] liam : ( sighs ) i knew it , you know ? i knew this would happen . see , this is exactly why steffy and i did n't want to tell her . and she finds it on your computer , of all places . i mean , you tell me to delete every copy . she finds it on your -- brooke : ( sighs ) i know . i know . i do n't know how that happened . it got transferred by mistake . liam : yeah , well , a lot of that going around lately , huh ? brooke : so how do you intend to make it right ? liam : well , i 'm not giving up on hope , if that 's what you mean . [ scene_break ] hope : you 're sorry ? why does that sound so familiar ? oh , right . that 's what you said when liam only told me half the truth , when all i thought that happened between you was a kiss . you 've been lying to my face every day . steffy : okay , okay . liam thought that you left him , all right , on your wedding day . he was confused , and he was angry , and he was upset . hope : and you felt his pain . steffy : i 'm not ashamed of that . hope : no , of course you 're not , because you two are oh - so - connected . i know . i saw . steffy : and you -- you never should have . you two are supposed to be happy together , okay ? and you -- you can still have that . hope : oh , you actually want me to stay with liam ? god , steffy , that 's really noble of you . steffy : can you just stop and -- and , you know , i -- look , okay , i - i - i bet you do n't believe me , but i 'm just hoping that you will listen to me . you married a great guy , and he loves you so much . do not let this misunderstanding ruin something that you worked so hard to have . hope : steffy , every single time i think about my wedding , i 'm going to remember that , on that day , he was making out with you , planning a life with you . steffy : but he married you . so do n't be a fool and throw that away . hope : well , actually , it was a just a ceremony . you know , technically , in california , we 're not really married . steffy : so then fix it . go down to a judge or whatever and exchange your vows again . look at me . you are the most forgiving person that i know , all right ? you are . but please do n't hate liam . hate me . hate me , okay ? hate me for betraying you . just give liam a break . hope : steffy , you want liam so much ? here . take it . come on , steffy . you know you want to . take the ring . take liam .
liam asks hope to please look at him . he admits he screwed up , but he wants to be married to her and be forgiven and given another chance . he is not making excuses . he knows now that he was wrong , but he really thought hope had written the note and was leaving him . now he would just like her to wipe the slate clean . hope says she 'd really like to just move on and pretend that everything that happened between him and steffy does n't matter , but it does . despite liam trying to get her to stop and not go , hope leaves . steffy tells brooke again that liam and hope 's marriage is not official yet , but she reminds brooke that she never wanted hope to even know about the video ; that was all brooke 's doing . liam did all he could without bringing up the video . now it 's all out in the open and everyone knows but steffy points out she had nothing to do with it . she just wants hope to put everything in the past and get on with her marriage . when brooke keeps accusing her of what she did on that day , steffy says okay , she did not think hope deserved any consideration then . because of the note , she too thought hope had left liam at the altar . marcus is led into the holding room to see thomas , caroline and dayzee but told no physical contact . marcus thanks them for coming and apologizes for putting dayzee through this . justin arrives and tells marcus he is sorry . he 'll see if bill can pull some strings , but he was n't able to get a bond hearing until tomorrow .
quinn : here is the difference between you and me . why we do n't always agree on jewelry . you 're -- you 're more of a couture guy , you know . you like things delicate and classy . and , well , i 'm a little bit more , um , new school . ridge : and what am i ? out of touch ? quinn : no , no , no . no , what i mean is , um , what you would see as over - the - top , uh , i would see as a bold statement . and -- and that 's what this dress needs . not that this dress is boring , per se . what are you thinking ? ridge : is that a trick question ? quinn : you know what ? can i just show you what the dress looks like with the necklace ? ridge : okay . quinn : okay . you 're tall . see ? ridge : yeah , i - i see what you mean . quinn : yeah ? ridge : i do . so let 's do this . let 's meet in the middle . if you can take out every other stone and give this a little more room to breathe , i think we 're in good shape . we have a deal . quinn : i can do that . okay . um ... great . excuse me . okay . ridge : just hold on a sec . quinn : oh , and , uh , ridge ? thank you for hearing me out . ridge : we 're part of a team . quinn : we are .

[ both chuckle ] thomas : [ normal voice ] it was a little weird , though , you getting summoned home by my dad . caroline : he did n't summon me . he just text me that he was on his way home . thomas : hmm . and you shot out of there like a cannonball . what do you two even have in common ? caroline : you 'd be surprised . thomas : hmm . i mean , besides the obvious . women have always been attracted to the great ridge forrester . caroline : [ sighs ] ridge and i just get each other . thomas : hmm . caroline : we 're a team . thomas : so , i impress you , chances are dad will be impressed , too ? caroline : when it comes to design , yeah . we usually think alike . thomas : okay . what do you think of that ? [ scene_break ] brooke : still not used to seeing you here , wandering the halls at will . deacon : yeah , you know , that is actually one of the benefits of being married to quinn . all right , now tell the truth . that has got to be driving ridge all sorts of crazy . brooke : [ laughs ] i can only imagine . deacon : and that is definitely worth the price of admission . brooke : and are you paying the price , being married to quinn ? deacon : oh , come on . you 're looking at a happy man . brooke : it 's a spell , you know . deacon : [ laughs ] you ai n't wrong about that . brooke : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] thomas : you 're not saying anything . caroline : give me a sec . i 'm -- i 'm absorbing . thomas : you do n't like it . you hate it . caroline : no . no , stop . it 's -- it 's good . thomas : [ sighs ] but ? caroline : but ... in order for it to fit in with the california freedom collection , which is what i 'm assuming you want ... it has to come in here . at the natural waist . thomas : okay . yeah . caroline : because you have to design for every body type . um , you know , 'cause this collection is about embracing your uniqueness and -- and -- and celebrating what makes you , you , whatever that may be . so it 's all inclusive . thomas : okay . awesome . yeah . thanks for the tip . caroline : yeah . anytime . thomas : okay . [ sighs ] well , i might as well get started . got to take the design over to dad , so wish me luck . caroline : you do n't need luck . thomas : right . because the design and the talent speaks for itself . caroline : and , you know , before you know it , you 'll be the third member of the freedom collection design team . thomas : awesome . [ scene_break ] deacon : [ laughs ] quinn : hey . deacon : hey . quinn : hmm . deacon : hmm . you know , can i just take a second here and savor this moment ? quinn : why ? what 's so special about it ? deacon : all right , well , the only thing missing is hope , but you know what ? i 'll take it . i mean , it 's a great day , i got two of my favorite women here . quinn : did i interrupt a personal moment ? brooke : actually , we were just talking about you . quinn : oh ! [ laughs ] of course , you were . were you trying to poison deacon against me some more ? deacon : come on . brooke : have you always been this paranoid ? quinn : uh , when it comes to you , a woman who would stoop so low as to video in hope during our wedding to try and stop it ? deacon : okay , look , the point is , i still married you . brooke : according to deacon , he 's a happy man . so how could i be anything but happy for him ? deacon : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] ridge : how 's that feel ? sarah : much better . ridge : good . see caroline before you go down to alterations . sarah : okay . [ door opens ] thomas : hey , you got a minute ? ridge : oh , there he is . you can ask him yourself . sarah : ridge . thomas : it 's sarah , is n't it ? well , do n't be shy . what do you need to know ? ridge : she wants to know about your future plans -- sarah : please stop . i can speak for myself . thank you . but yeah . i 'm curious . thomas : well , i 'll know more after this meeting . but if you want me to give you a call sometime ... sarah : hope to hear from you soon . [ door opens ] thomas : well , that was different . ridge : what 's that ? thomas : a model flirting with me instead of you . ridge : well , the son also rises . thomas : well , i hope that does n't bother you , because that 's exactly what 's about to happen . [ scene_break ] quinn : i know i 'm beating my head against the wall , and i guess i 'm going to do it over and over and over again . [ chuckles ] but i ... it -- it just has to prove how much i love this man , and i want him to be happy , because i know your approval will make him happy . so , i 'm gon na ask you again . maybe today or tomorrow or early next week , you could be happy for us . brooke : i do respect the fact that you 're deacon 's wife . quinn : well , that 's progress , so that 's accepted . yeah . deacon : [ chuckles ] quinn : i mean , i 'm not really bad once you get to know me . you know , i have n't done anything crazy in months . brooke : keep up the good work . quinn : thanks . deacon : okay , so , uh , how did your meeting with ridge go today ? quinn : oh , that . that went surprisingly well . brooke : why surprising ? he has n't been nice ? quinn : no , ridge is always his own version of nice . i mean , he 's -- he 's professional , if not a little bit impersonal . but today i learned that he is willing to compromise . deacon : so then he heard you . quinn : mm - hmm . yeah . we were able to figure something out that i can make work . deacon : no , babe , that 's fantastic . i mean , you know , it means he values your input , which he should because you are brilliant . quinn : aww . you always say that . brooke : so , you 're happy working with ridge ? quinn : yeah . i really am . i mean , not that i do n't appreciate rick , because he 's the reason i 'm here in the first place , but ridge really brought the morale of the company back up . you know , everything is fun and creative and alive again . brooke : good . quinn : yeah , and i guess there 's gon na be some new / old blood joining the design team , so ... deacon : who 's that ? quinn : well , thomas wants in . and i get the feeling that guy gets whatever he wants . [ scene_break ] ridge : wow . i 'm surprised . you got sketches already , huh ? thomas : well , i 'm a designer , dad . that 's what i do . ridge : well , here 's a tip . sometimes attention to detail beats fast and furious . thomas : now , who 's to say i did n't do both ? look , i want to get back to this , okay ? i 'm ready to get back to work , and there 's no reason why i should n't . except this dog and pony show . ridge : that 's what you think this is ? proving yourself is a dog and pony show ? thomas : yeah . i think it 's unnecessary , because we both know what i bring to the table , okay ? but hey , you 're running the show , so we 're gon na do it your way , okay ? now , i showed caroline the sketch . she really liked it . i think you will , too . [ scene_break ] caroline : hey , brooke . brooke : hey . i thought thomas would be here . caroline : uh , no . he is in with ridge , but you 're welcome to wait . brooke : sure . why not ? must be my day for character building . caroline : excuse me ? brooke : oh , nothing . how are you ? caroline : i keep waiting for aly to walk through that door . and it 's just ... still strange that ... she never will again . brooke : it 's unspeakable . she was too young . caroline : yeah , i mean , just in any instant , just to be ... gone . brooke : other than that ? caroline : i 'm doing really good . brooke : so you and ridge , things going well there ? caroline : [ chuckles ] i do n't know if that 's a place that you and i should go . brooke : well , i do n't think we can really avoid it . you are a couple . unless something has happened that i do n't know about . caroline : we 're fine , brooke . brooke : must be lovely for you . must seem like you 're on a roll . ridge is ceo . first fashion collection under his regime is a huge success . caroline : and it 's all about to get better , actually , 'cause i think that he is hiring thomas as we speak . [ scene_break ] thomas : i do n't think i should be judged for how long it takes me to complete a design . you have n't even looked at it yet . ridge : son , i 'm not judging you . i just -- i 'm giving you some advice . i 've done this for a long time . and sometimes it pays to spend some time with the design and see what it has to tell you . thomas : and that 's how you work , okay ? but i 'm allowed to have my own style . ridge : of course , but you could benefit from my experience . thomas : that 's what i 'm trying to do . you 're gon na like what i 've done . come on . [ scene_break ] quinn : did you notice what just happened ? brooke and i actually had a moment . i think she 's starting to warm up to me . deacon : oh , it was -- it was downright civil . quinn : yeah , well , i will take civil . i hope you got the message about all that . deacon : what message is that ? quinn : well , that i 'm so crazy about you that i 'm willing to make things work with that woman . because even when she 's warming up to me , she 's still cold as ice . and you run so hot . how did the two of you even connect in the first -- deacon : yeah , let 's not -- quinn : stop , stop , stop . stop . i do n't want to know . deacon : you know , i just -- quinn : i do n't want to know . deacon : i want to say that you are a fantastic partner . you really are . you 're the woman -- you 're the woman that i never deserved , and i really appreciate you making an effort , because i know it ai n't easy . quinn : aww . i would do anything for you . deacon : you know that goes both ways . quinn : [ chuckles ] i ca n't believe i 'm in a marriage that 's actually working . deacon : what the hell does that -- what ? what ? you doubted us ? quinn : no , i doubted me . i did n't think i could do the wife thing . i mean , my life has always been about my career and my son . i did n't think -- i did n't think i had any room left inside for anything else . and then i walked into a bar one night and nothing 's been the same ever since . deacon : [ chuckles ] and here we are , happily hitched . quinn : are you sure that you do n't ... look at brooke and secretly wish you were single ? deacon : never . you 're everything i want . and you are everything i need . quinn : aww . [ scene_break ] brooke : so , thomas is here to stay ? caroline : i think so , yeah . um , he was kind of over corporate , and he wants to design again . brooke : that 's what quinn was saying . so when does he start ? caroline : well , that has n't been determined yet . um , thomas is showing ridge a design right now . brooke : showing ? as in this is a test ? caroline : pretty much . brooke : but thomas ' line did so well for forrester before . why would n't ridge just hire him again ? after all , he is his son . caroline : well , i ... [ sighs ] ridge wants him to earn it just like everyone else . brooke : well , that makes sense . but thomas is very talented . i 'm sure it wo n't be a problem . caroline : and i 'm really excited to have another forrester on the team . brooke : i ca n't help but remember . when you first came to town , you and thomas were the couple . [ scene_break ] thomas : it 's pretty good for on the fly , huh ? you might actually recognize that little trick right there . classic ridge forrester with a tad more sexy . ridge : [ chuckles ] thomas : okay , so what i 'm going for here is a combination of both in a couple of ways . design with the elegance that put forrester on the map paired with something a little more sensual . and us . moving forward in the forrester tradition , father and son working side by side . ridge : really ? you want to know what i think ? thomas : yeah ! come on . give me what you got . ridge : okay . [ scene_break ] caroline : wow , uh , thomas and me ? that was [ chuckles ] such a long time ago . i mean , there 's been so much growth , thank god . i mean , 'cause we were both so immature . i do n't even remember that girl . brooke : you made quite an impression on thomas . and rick . caroline : wow . okay . way to open a huge can of worms there , brooke . [ chuckles ] brooke : you 're not sorry i sent for you , are you ? caroline : no . no . coming to la was the best decision i could have ever made . brooke : well , then ... you 're welcome . caroline : [ chuckles ] okay . yeah . it 's true that i have you to thank for all that . um , i mean , i 'm working and i 'm in love and ... i know that you said it was okay that i could talk to you about ridge , but i just -- it feels weird , and i 'm not so sure that it is a good idea . brooke : please . i do n't want ridge back . caroline : right . i know . because if you did want ridge back , you could have him back just like that . brooke : [ chuckles ] caroline : so , anyway ... yes , i - i am in love . and -- and now thomas is back . and forrester has another father / son designing team , and i 'm really excited at the prospect of collaborating with them . you know , and it just shows the whole world that forrester is back to what made it so unique . family creating together . you know , one generation to the next . it 's exactly what ridge wants . [ scene_break ] thomas : what the hell was that ? ridge : you wanted my opinion . now you have it . thomas : you just tore up my design ! ridge : there 's no reason to keep them . they do n't work . thomas : i spent all night on this ! ridge : spend a little more . we need cutting edge , son . thomas : [ scoffs ] this is a -- this is a joke , right ? you just want to get a reaction out of me ? ridge : no , that 's not what i 'm doing . thomas : this is what everybody is wearing on the streets of paris , milan , and new york ! ridge : i do n't care what anybody 's wearing on the streets today . i care about what they 're gon na wear tomorrow . we 're trendsetters . we 're not followers . we never were . now , part of you has got to be embarrassed by that just a little bit . thomas : embarrassed ? ridge : yeah , it 's -- it 's terrible ! you walk in here , you want to be part of this design team , and this is what you bring to validate yourself ? this ? do you know how many young people there are , young visionaries who want to work with caroline and want to work with me and learn from us ? you have an edge ! you worked in this business . you have experience . you had your own line . and what happened ? you went to paris and what ? you just got lazy ? thomas : oh , come on . i ca n't believe this . ridge : believe it ! look at me ! you 're alive . you 're here . you got the world at your fingertips , and what do you want ? you just -- you want a job from me , because you 're my son ? if you truly believe that this is the best that you can come up with , you 'd be the last person i 'd hire .
quinn tells ridge that he is not out of touch but she wants to make more of a bold statement and what the dress would look like with her jewelry . they compromise with a few less stones while still looking good but giving the dress a chance to shine . she thanks him for giving her a chance . thomas tells caroline that he enjoyed hanging out with her yesterday . he wonders what she has in common with ridge .besides the obvious that men always are intrigued by the great ridge forrester . she says they just get each other and are a great design team . he asks her opinion of a design he just made . if she likes it then probably his dad will too . she makes a few changes before she accepts it . he thanks her for the tip . he says he will take it over to his dad so wish him luck . she thinks he can be the third member of the design team . brooke tells deacon that she is not used to seeing him roam the halls of fc at will . he thinks it is funny and must drive ridge crazy and that is worth the price of admission . quinn spies them talking and walks up . he comments on being there with his two favorite women . quinn ca n't help but mention that brooke videoed hope in on their wedding to try and stop it . brooke assures her that they were only talking about quinn and how deacon is a happy married man now . quinn tells her how good it is to be working and accepted by ridge and the entire company 's morale is much better now .

[ both chuckle ] steffy : what 's up , bill ? bill : thanks for bringing her here safely . anything else , mr . spencer ? bill : that will be all . justin : so , steffy , i guess congratulations are in order , huh ? bill : i 'll see you back at the office , justin . justin : oh . right . right . i 'll see you later , steffy . bill : kelly 's at home with the nanny ? steffy : yeah . yeah , what 's going on ? bill : it looks better on you than it does on me . steffy : why did you want me to come here ? bill : to talk about our future . steffy : you want to get married today ? bill : quick and drama - free . i know there 's gon na be a line of people telling you not to do it . do n't listen to them . steffy : do n't tell me what to do , bill . bill : well , how about i tell you what i 'll do ? give you and kelly the life you deserve . the life you ca n't even imagine . steffy : i can imagine the life i want for my daughter , and i 'm gon na make sure she gets it . bill : but i can help . come with me . i want to show you something . liam : steffy turning to my dad this reflexively should tell you something . ridge : tell me what ? that 's not what she 's doing . she 's my daughter . liam : what is she doing ? explain it to me , then . what is she doing ? ridge : she 's messed up ! she 's heartbroken . am i explaining this right ? you broke her spirit . liam : yeah , well , she broke mine first , so ... ridge : oh , did she ? she broke yours first ? what , that night in the guest house with your dad ? you should have stopped her from going over there . but you failed her that night , and you know what , boy , you 're about to fail her again . liam : how -- how is what 's happening right now my fault ? ridge : how is it not your fault ? it is your fault ! it 's partly your fault ! but you did the right thing . you forgave her and you took her back . and then , out of nowhere , hope is pregnant . not out of nowhere . we all know how that happens , right ? liam : i know -- i know , ridge , and it was one night . ridge : one night ! one night that your dad is responsible for . you would n't have been there with hope if it were n't for your dad manipulating you and your brother . liam : does n't matter much now , does it ? ridge : it does n't matter much now ? really ? that 's -- really ? how can you say that ? it matters more than ever before . she was in that guest house because she was vulnerable , because you made out with a different girl . and now she 's vulnerable again because , once again , you made out with someone else . take some responsibility ! and fight ! fight your little girl . steffy : when did you do this ? bill : after you started wearing my necklace . steffy : it 's a little over - the - top , do n't you think ? bill : for a child i adore ? no . steffy : what 's this ? bill : your wedding dress . i wanted to whisk you off to an island i own in the south pacific , throw you the wedding of the ages . but that 's not what 's best for kelly right now . so we 'll do it right here in our home . steffy : looks like you have it all planned out . bill : does that offend you ? steffy : i 'm in charge of my life now , bill . bill : does that mean there 's no room for surprises ? that would be like a knife through my heart . i told you , a life you ca n't imagine . so you got to leave me a little room for surprises . steffy : i 've had more than enough surprises than i 'd like to think about lately . bill : yeah , well , i 'm not talking about anything like that . i know it 's hard for you to fathom a life with a man who wo n't let you down . but i am that man , steffy . you and kelly will want for nothing . and i 'm not talking about material things . you 'll have my heart . you 'll have all of me . every day will be a celebration . steffy : it ca n't always be a celebration , bill . do n't try to live up to it . i did , till reality taught me otherwise . bill : yeah , well , life is full of lessons . and you 're about to learn some new ones . do n't underestimate me . steffy : i want my daughter to know truth . and the truth is ... life will sometimes be painful . bill : yes , it will . and we 'll help her through those times together . make no mistake . i will be the greatest stepfather kelly could ever have . steffy : apparently , you 're gon na be spoiling her . bill : well , that 's what i do to the people that i love . brooke : i ca n't believe that steffy is considering marrying bill . hope : and aside from liam taking care of his daughter , he seems to be washing his hands of the whole situation , and i do n't blame him , mom . brooke : [ sighs ] honey , this is all so difficult . but i ca n't help thinking what this could mean for the two of you . hope : [ chuckles ] no , i just do n't want to get my hopes up again . you know , i want a life with liam , and i know he loves me , but is steffy really going to go through with it ? will bill ? and alienate the father of her child ? ridge : steffy does n't want to be with your dad . she is heartbroken . liam : yes . yes . she 's heartbroken and she 's upset , and she has every right to be . but this -- this should tell you something . ridge : it tells me that you can fix it , so please fix it . liam : i 'm trying , ridge ! i 'm trying ! but you know what , i 'm done with the uncertainty ! all the uncertainty surrounding steffy and my dad . listen , if she really wants to be with my dad -- ridge : she does n't want to be with your dad ! that 's the wrong answer . what she 's doing -- and i think you 're aware of that -- she 's lashing out at you because she wants to hurt you . what 's gon na happen in the end is she 's gon na hurt herself , and she 's gon na hurt that little girl . and i know you do n't want that . i know you well enough to know that you do n't want that . but , liam , if you do n't do something about it , if you do n't stand up and fight , then this whole delusion about her wanting to be with your dad , it 's gon na become a reality . and you know bill as a father . you know what he did to you , what he did to wyatt . you really want him raising your little girl ? do you ? bill : hey , look at this . i picked it out myself . soft as can be . steffy : it 's precious , bill . all of it . bill : so are you . do n't ever forget that . steffy : [ chuckles ] looks like you 've done some serious shopping . bill : [ chuckles ] steffy : i wish i had a picture of that . bill : i loved every minute of it . steffy : right . bill : really , i mean it . i 'm not only the bill spencer that the rest of the world knows and loves . i want a different life , steffy . i want this . steffy : me and kelly over profit margins and hostile takeovers ? bill : in a heartbeat . steffy : what about sky , your precious spencer tower ? bill : it means nothing to me . all that matters is you . you and kelly , our future . i want to dig you out of the hole that you 've been in . steffy : [ sighs ] i do n't need rescuing , bill . bill : well , you need more than liam 's given you , that 's for sure , and i can provide that . i know you 're hesitant , i understand that . but you have completely changed my outlook . what i 've experienced with you ... nothing compares . now , i 'm -- i 'm sure your father 's appalled , but once you have my forrester shares , the two of you will have control of that company . but it all starts with us getting married . and if you think too much about it , if you listen to your father , you might back out , and that would be the worst mistake that you could make . you go back to a life of misery . you do n't want that life . i do n't want that life for you . liam ... liam chose hope . and you saw that for yourself when you found the two of them in hope 's dressing room . you deserve a life with a man who wo n't let you down . i 'm that man . i will give you and kelly the most beautiful life . i want to give you what you 've given me . i want you to feel what i feel when we 're in a room together . and i do n't want us to waste another moment . brooke : whatever happens between steffy and bill , i 'm sure she 's not gon na let anything come between liam and their daughter . hope : i hope you 're right . brooke : and now there 's a clear path for you and liam . hope : okay , let 's not get too ahead of ourselves , mom . brooke : well , if steffy wants to be with bill , and from what you say , it sounds like she does ... then you and liam are inevitable . hope : there is still a little girl to think about it . brooke : there is a little girl . and she 's gon na be loved and cherished by liam and steffy and by all of us . who knows , maybe even bill . hope : well , i guess anything is possible . brooke : you and liam are finally coming together . you have the same views on life . you 're helpful , you contribute to the world . hope : two peas in the same pod , huh ? brooke : and a third pea in the pod on its way . [ laughs ] what a blessed , fortunate child it 's going to be , having you two as parents . who knows ? one day , this child might even run for the presidency . hope : ooh ! you know , i was thinking superhero . brooke : [ chuckles ] oh , honey . okay , okay , then it 's settled , all right ? you and liam , you 're gon na be husband and wife , so just embrace it because it 's going to happen . [ giggles ] come here . ridge : i realize hope is carrying your baby . that makes things very complicated . at a time like this , maybe you need to follow your heart and follow the commitment that you made . liam : i -- ridge : both those roads lead to steffy . liam : i know , but -- ridge : but what , steffy does n't want to be with you ? she does want to be with you . it 's the only thing she wants , and she made a mistake ! you made a mistake . you both made mistakes , but now maybe there 's a way to get past it . she 's running to your dad because she 's angry and she 's frustrated , and she 's incredibly proud . but she 's about to make the biggest mistake of her life , so you got to stand up and do something 'cause i know you do n't want that for her , and you do n't want that for that little girl . so do something . do something before it 's too late . bill : what do you think ? steffy : you really want to get married . right here ? bill : right now . i , william spencer , take you , stephanie forrester -- yes , your given name . that 's who you are . a strong , confident woman , just like your namesake . i want to help get you back there . steffy : bill , i do n't want -- bill : to lean on a man ? be dependent ? that 's not what i 'm about . i do n't want to usurp who you are . i want help you be everything that you can be . a great mom , a spectacular businesswoman who answers to no one , including me . powerful and in charge . that 's who you are . and that 's what i want to help encourage and nurture in you , and i will , if you 'll let me . stephanie was the forrester matriarch , but you 're a mom now . it 's time for you to be the matriarch of the forrester family . and soon , the spencer family , as well . i know that you do n't love me the way that i love you . yet . but i know that you will because you once did , and it lives in you . and because i know what i bring out in you -- the most talented , amazing , kickass woman on the planet , and it starts right here and right now . so go upstairs and put on that wedding dress , and let 's exchange vows . become my wife . we 'll be the most incredible couple the world has ever known . mr. and mrs . william spencer . . . .
ridge marches over to see liam and asks how could he do this to steffy . liam sees he has no choice but to talk to him so lets him in . he admits he made a mistake and steffy can not accept it . ridge insists that he make it right . hope tells brooke that he realizes what she and liam did was wrong but to turn to another man , and his dad to boot is ridiculous . bill has a driver show up at steffy 's to pick her up and bring her to bill . meantime he is fingering his naked neck and says he misses his necklace . he tells justin that he will get it back today as he and steffy will be married . liam tells ridge that he hates that steffy turned to his dad . ridge says then do something about it , stop them . he needs to take some responsibility of making out with another girl . fight for steffy . bill shows steffy upstairs and she finds an incredible over the top pink themed nursery filled with everything . then she spots her wedding dress – everything he planned out . he tells her that she and kelly will want nothing . every day will be about them . do n't ever underestimate him . he will be the greatest stepfather a kid can ever have .
donna : jackie and i just sat down . if you leave now , we can order you something . brooke : it 's been frantic all morning . i 'm just trying to tie up my notes from my conference call with china . so , why do n't you two go ahead ? eat without me . jackie has my input . donna : are you okay ? brooke : just busy . donna : you did n't sleep again last night , did you ? you miss the kids . brooke : i try not to think about it . donna : look , you want me to bring you something ? a salad or -- you 're going to eat something , promise me . okay , good . i love you . bye . jackie : sounds like brooke is in a bad way . donna : all thanks to stephanie . god , i hate that woman . if there 's any justice in this world , she 'll get hers . maybe sooner than she thinks . [ scene_break ] phoebe : so , what 's the big news ? constantine : duh , the boldface challenge . phoebe : what ? constantine : yeah , remember ? the promoter i mentioned ? phoebe : the guy who wanted to do the contest ? constantine : yes , it 's official . we 're doing it . it 's going to be amazing . he created the coolest page for my website . and the whole world 's going to see and it 's going to put my label on the map . you and me , versus , you and rick . come on , let me show you .

[ scene_break ] katie : my husband wants a future with your daughter ? taylor : yes . katie : my husband , who just renewed his wedding vows ? taylor : i know how this must hurt you . katie : it does n't hurt . taylor : i know . katie : it 's not true . it 's absurd . taylor : you honestly ca n't think that i would be saying something like this to you and -- and not be for certain . katie : listen , i know that your daughter has been throwing herself at bill . she 's been doing that since she first laid eyes on him , but whatever fantasies she 's created about the two of them , that 's exactly what they are -- fantasies . taylor : i wish this was n't true . i really wish it had n't gone this far . katie : your daughter is delusional . taylor : no . katie : i understand that you have to defend her . she 's your child . but really , you have a lot of nerve coming in here and saying these things about my husband . you should n't do this . it 's reckless . taylor : i agree , katie , yes . it -- it would be reckless , if i had n't seen it with my own eyes . katie : ( sighs ) what are you talking about ? taylor : ( sighs ) i saw it . [ scene_break ] dayzee : i think amber has a problem with me . marcus : well , she wo n't after she gets to know you better . dayzee : did you not see the look she gave me ? marcus : you mean , when she went to go give rosey a bath ? dayzee : ( scoffs ) yeah . she looked like i was gon na , you know , put the moves on you or something . marcus : actually , i would n't mind that . dayzee : ( scoffs ) stop . marcus : you know , we did have some pretty awesome times together , though . and i would n't mind rekindling that flame again . of course , i have a kid with amber now . dayzee : ( laughs ) yeah . marcus : so maybe more complications for you than you want to handle , especially everything you 've been going through with thomas and -- dayzee : do n't want to talk about thomas ... ever . marcus : well , i do n't want to talk about thomas ever , either . ( laughs ) dayzee : you know , you 're -- you seem really committed to rosey . i mean , it 's great , 'cause , you know , despite the circumstances and ... marcus : honestly , it does n't matter how rosey got here . i 'm just happy that she 's in my life . and i 'm happy that you 're in my life , too . [ scene_break ] bill : mm . i hate to do this but ... steffy : no . no , no , no . come on . 30 more minutes , please ? bill : ( groans ) steffy : mm . bill : mm . i 've got to get to the office . steffy : ( groans ) god , your board meeting . i got it . ( inhales sharply ) ( sighs ) bill : i could n't tell katie last night , but she has to be told . i hate the dishonesty and the sneaking around and ... it 's not fair to either one of you . steffy : okay . good luck . i 'll be waiting for you . [ scene_break ] taylor : i know this is so hard for you to believe , but i saw the two of them upstairs in steffy 's bedroom , and it was very clear what was going on . katie : you caught them having sex is that what you 're saying ? taylor : no , thank god . steffy told me i interrupted before they -- katie : right . right . steffy told you . see , i know you do n't want to listen to his , but your daughter is very manipulative . whatever you saw , it was n't what you thought . taylor : i 'm trying to tell you that your marriage is n't what you think . katie : all right . all right . enough . i 'm not listening to one more word of this . your daughter has been after my husband for months . but i refuse to believe that bill would throw away everything we have together for some stupid thing with steffy . i do n't believe it . taylor : he was going to tell you about it last night when he came home , but then he walked in on your surprise wedding vow renewal ceremony . katie : that 's what steffy told you . taylor : that 's what bill told me . he told me that he was going to leave you for steffy . katie : ( laughs ) that 's ridiculous . taylor : i do n't know if he meant it . i do n't know if he was just saying it to -- to continue to lead steffy on . i have no idea , but i 'm telling you that i do n't approve of this relationship . i do n't want it to happen , but steffy wo n't listen to me . but bill has to listen to you , because now you know everything , and you can go to him and maybe you can sit down and you can talk to him and -- and try to work things out . katie : there 's nothing to work out . we 're in love . our marriage is solid . listen , i really do n't have time for this . i do n't know what your motivation was for coming here , but you should really be talking to your daughter . steffy 's sick . she needs help . she 's trying to undermine a perfectly healthy relationship , and the only one getting her heart broken is her , not me . [ scene_break ] marcus : okay , well , that 's all i can fit in my car . dayzee 's gon na take the rest . dayzee : yep . amber : of course she is . donna : okay , twinkle toes why do n't we take a little stroll ? marcus : mm - hmm . sounds good . come on , little lady . your carriage awaits . ( laughs ) donna : ( giggles ) dayzee : um , well , take care , amber . it was good seeing you . amber : yeah , you , too . marcus : i 'll stop by in the morning on my way to work , all right ? amber : rosey and i would like that . marcus : all right . ( door closes ) [ scene_break ] liam : okay , i 'm here . what 's the big emergency ? steffy : did i say there was one ? liam : yeah , you did you -- you called me and gave this address , and you told me to head over as soon as i possibly could . steffy : but first , okay , i want your opinion . liam : what -- about what ? steffy : about the place . it 's totally me , right ? liam : uh , yeah . steffy : mm - hmm . liam : uh , yeah , i guess . l - listen , steffy , i 'm trying to get a hold of my dad , and i ca n't find him . do you have any idea where he is ? steffy : why would i know ? oh , my god . you know about bill and me . oh , my god . oh . ( laughs ) liam : you know they renewed their wedding vows last night . steffy : yeah , he had no idea katie planned that . liam : i know . he was in a pretty tough spot . but it 's nothing compared to the one he 's about to be in , so -- so can you just tell me if you have any idea where he could be right now ? steffy : um ... ( sighs ) yeah , we were just together . liam : t - together here ? steffy : yeah . liam : uh ... ( sighs ) okay . so this -- this is where you 're living now , huh ? steffy : oh , um ... my mom knows . and she thinks bill 's stringing me along , that he 's not gon na end his marriage . liam : wait a second . is that -- is that -- is that were he went , to go end it with katie ? [ scene_break ] katie : ( sighs ) uh , hillary got the boardroom ready , but you might want to check it out and make sure it 's exactly the way you want it . bill , you remember the board meeting , right ? i mean , you did n't cancel it and just not tell everyone , right ? bill : you know me better than that . katie : yeah , i thought i did . i 'd like to think i know you better than anyone . but according to taylor , i 'm deluding myself . bill : taylor ? katie : yeah , she was just here . bill : taylor was here ? katie : mm - hmm she , um ... ( laughs ) she was on i guess what you would call a - a mission of mercy . see , it seems you and her daughter have been having this torrid affair , and she thought that , as the loyal and loving wife , i should know about it . ( chuckles ) of course i told her i did n't believe word of it . i mean , steffy 's been after you for months . that 's no secret . and she hates me . she hates all logans . and since i 'm brooke 's sister and she blames brooke for taking daddy away , why not try to turn my life upside down ? but taylor did n't seem to get any of that . ( chuckles ) i even told her about our marriage vow renewal ceremony last night . i told her about all the beautiful things we said to each other , all the beautiful things you said to me . i told her it was absolutely impossible that you could stand up in front of all of our friends and family and say those things if you were involved with steffy . i mean , she might as well have been telling me the sky is pink ... ( chuckles ) because i know you ... and you would n't do that to us . you would n't do that to me . but she just was not hearing it . i mean , she just kept going on and on and on about how she did n't want her daughter involved with a married man . you know , bill , um ... i realize that steffy flatters you . she strokes your ego . i get it . but this type of flirtation can be dangerous . it sends the wrong message . i really think that you need to cut off all contact with her , because it only encourages her , even though i know you do n't mean to . she 's just playing games , because that 's what little girls do . they play games . but you would n't have some stupid affair with some stupid little girl , would you , bill ? you would n't throw away everything we have for that , right ? tell me it 's not true . say it 's not true . [ scene_break ] ( doorbell rings ) amber : hold your horses . i am coming . dayzee : sorry . sorry . i think i left my -- yep , there they are . amber : oh , what 's your hurry ? oh , yeah , i forgot , you invited yourself over to marcus 's new digs . dayzee : do you mind ? amber : yes , i mind how you 're putting the moves on rosey 's dad . dayzee : that 's not what 's happening . amber : oh , please . what do you take me for ? dayzee : you really do n't want me to answer that . amber : look , you know what ? you -- dayzee : no , you look . the reason you like marcus -- is it because he 's , like , a really great dad with rosey , or is it because he 's a forrester and all that that entails ? you know what ? do n't bother answering . i 've heard all about you , and we both know that , with you , it 's about money and power . amber : no , it is not . i am fighting for my child , fighting to get rosey parents together . dayzee : yeah , i 'm not buying it . amber : you know , no matter what you may think of me , marcus cares about me . we 're friends , we always have been . in fact , we 've been getting even closer since the baby 's been born . you may want another shot at him , fine . but do n't think for one second that it 's gon na be a slam dunk , not with me and his little girl in the picture . [ scene_break ] katie : oh , my god . what have you done ? oh , my god . bill : i was gon na tell you last night . katie : ( gasps ) bill : but i walked in the house , and you had the ceremony planned , and i could n't tell you . katie : oh , my god . this is n't happening . this is n't happening this -- this ca n't be happening . you -- you -- you stood up -- you -- you stood up , and you held my hands , and you looked in my eyes , and you -- you promise that you would always love me . are you telling me that , this whole time , you 've been with steffy ? ( sighs ) oh , my god . how long ? how long have you been making a fool out of me ? god , you must think i am such an idiot . bill : i do n't think anything like -- katie : oh , my god . i - i - i 'm standing here , and i 'm defending us to taylor . i 'm defending you , because i have always defended you . that 's all i ever do because i 'm convinced that nothing can touch us because we 're unique . we 're special . god , what a joke ! what a joke you 've made out of us . what a joke you 've made out of me . i have held you up as this -- this paragon of honesty . `` yes , he 's ruthless yes , he 's blunt , but at least he 's honest , at least he does n't lie . how long ? how long have you been kissing her with the same mouth that you kiss me ? how long have you been touching her with the same hands that you touch me ? oh , my god . i 'm gon na be sick . ( sobbing ) bill : katie .... on our wedding day ... katie : ( breathing heavily ) bill : when i promised forever , i meant it . i wanted it to be forever . so i let down my well , constructed walls ... katie : ( scoffs ) bill : and let you see inside me , let you see what made me tick . and knowing that you -- you still walked out on me you walked out on me time and time again ... katie : ( laughs ) bill : and i let it go . i let that go for us . but that amber betrayal -- you compromised my trust . you put me in harm 's way . katie : you 're making this my fault ? ! bill : i never would have done that to you , never ! katie : you 're saying it 's my fault . damn you ! get out of here ! bill : katie . katie . katie . katie : i ca n't stand to look at you ! let me go . let me go ! bill : no , stop it . katie : ( gasping ) bill : i 'm gon na call hillary and cancel the board meeting . if they have any questions ... katie : ( groaning ) bill : ( speaking indistinctly ) ( crash ) bill : katie . katie ! katie , can you hear me ? katie .
taylor looks at a shocked katie and says she is sorry , but she deserves to know about her husband and taylor 's daughter . katie scoffs and says it is not true , it is absurd . she knows steffy has been throwing herself at bill , but they are just fantasies . she thinks taylor has a lot of nerve to come in here and say these things . taylor assures her that she is not lying ; she saw it with her own eyes . katie tells taylor that she does n't know what motivation taylor had by coming here , but steffy is sick and she is the one that taylor needs to talk to . steffy tells bill that what they feel for each other is not wrong , but katie may not let him go . she kisses him and vows that he will never go back to katie ever . bill has to literally push her off of him , fighting for 30 more minutes . he reminds her that he has a board meeting .. and he needs to still tell katie . he does n't like this sneaking around and being deceptive . amber feels like she is running marcus out of his home . they 'd had such a good time with their child , rosie , and now he is leaving . marcus says he is not moving that far away and he will see rosie every day . dayzee shows up to escort him out . she tells marcus that amber threw her a look and thinks she has a problem with her . marcus tells her that is okay ; he wants to re- kindle a relationship with her . he has a kid now and that might complicate things a bit , but he 's happy that both she and rosie are in his life . amber is unhappy to see them kissing .
hope : this is your big chance , steffy . you want liam , you got him . steffy : you 're overreacting . you 're testing me . you 're -- you 're teasing me . hope : no . no tease . no test . i am offering you what you 've wanted so badly -- my husband . go on . take it . [ scene_break ] liam : ( sighs ) i 'm not giving up on hope and me . we 've been through too much to get where we are . brooke : yes . liam : but ... ( scoffs ) how do i reach her ? i mean , she -- she tore up our marriage papers . she hates our wedding day now . all she can think about is what happened between steffy and me in that hotel room . brooke : she 's hurting , liam . it does n't mean she stopped loving you . it does n't work that way . liam : yeah , well ... even if she does still love me , it does n't mean we can stay together . [ scene_break ] dayzee : i do n't think i 've ever had a proper appreciation for powerful friends . for a while there , it looked like your bond hearing was n't even gon na happen tonight . marcus : ( sighs ) well , thanks to my dad and bill , i get to go home to my bride . dayzee : mm . bless both their hearts , and justin , too . he 's has n't stopped hustling since you called him . marcus : it is driving me crazy not being able to touch you . dayzee : we 'll make up for that when you come home . marcus : oh , yeah .

[ scene_break ] brooke : hope really gave you the impression that she wanted to end your marriage ? liam : i 'd say tearing up the papers was a pretty big statement . brooke : she 's hurt , and she 's disillusioned , and she 's not sure if she knows the man she married . liam : ( sighs ) okay . i deserve that . i just -- i jumped to the wrong conclusion , you know ? i ... and i know the mistake i made . i did n't ask why . why would hope dump me on her wedding day , especially when she was so damn happy about it but i saw that note , and i just -- i -- i do n't know . i lost it . and it was like , `` oh , my god , this happened before . now it 's happening again . `` and i just -- i could n't think straight . i could n't be rational . so i turned to steffy , and i asked her to start up again . it was so stupid . but this is why i did n't want to tell hope -- because i did n't want to hurt her . and then there 's steffy , who 's just along for the ride , and now she 's hurt , too- awesome . [ scene_break ] steffy : do n't want your ring . hope : really ? you did n't have a problem wearing it before . steffy : i do n't want to take your husband . hope : ( scoffs ) oh , yeah , i buy that . steffy : look , i get you 're mad at me , and i do n't blame you , but do n't trash your whole life because your wedding day was n't perfect . life 's gon na throw you curveballs . you 're gon na dodge them . you 're gon na catch them . but you just got ta keep on moving . you really got ta get better at adversity . hope : adversity ? steffy : mm - hmm . hope : oh , my god , are you kidding me , steffy ? adversity is when your break your arm . adversity is when you lose your job . this is betrayal between my husband and my stepsister , who apparently can not keep their hands off each other , even on my wedding day . steffy : look , i - i do n't mean to sound harsh or anything , but , um , get over it . hope : ( scoffs ) steffy : what happened between liam and me will only affect you if you let it . hope : i really wish that i could flip off things like fidelity and loyalty . it 'd be a lot easier . but i 'm not made that way . because without things like morals and standards , you have nothing . steffy : you have both , and you have liam . hope : i do n't want him . [ scene_break ] marcus : i do n't want to go to jail , dayzee . dayzee : why are you so convinced that you will ? marcus : you see , texting while has been a huge safety hazard . people who are addicted to their phones , like me -- i mean , people get so caught up in what they 're doing and not paying attention , and that 's how people get hurt , like anthony . i could have killed him , dayzee . i could have killed anthony .

hope holds up her wedding ring and tells steffy that if she wants liam , he can now be hers . she demands steffy take it as she is not teasing her . she wanted this so badly , so take it ! . steffy warns her to be mad at steffy but not to trash her whole marriage or blame this on her . she does not want her husband like this . life throws you curveballs and you either have to dodge them or catch them . hope has both morals and standards and she has liam . hope says she does n't want him . liam looks at the papers and is exasperated when he tells brooke he does n't know how he is gon na reach hope ; she tore up the papers . all hope can think of now is what happened between him and steffy in that hotel room . and even if hope still loves him does n't mean they will stay together as brooke suggests . she admits hope is hurt and disillusioned and is not sure of the man she married . he reckons he deserves that . dayzee and marcus ca n't touch but they stand and thank their friends plus his dad and bill for coming through so they can have the bond hearing tonight . caroline and thomas kiss , almost have to be torn apart . they discuss anthony and how time is so short , they ca n't waste a minute of it . thomas needs to go to the auto shop where marcus 's car is in for repairs now that the police have released it ...... the sooner the better and then they can get back to something else . they think it strange when they find out all that is wrong with the car is a flat tire and a busted rim . moments later they too have a flat tire and a busted rim ; they have hit a manhole .

[ giggles ] bill : i made a mistake . i 'm not denying that . deacon : bill spencer groveling ? now , that is something i never thought i would hear . bill : do n't you have to go make a license plate or something ? brooke : deacon , please . bill : i do n't want to say this in front of this loser , but i will . i 'll say it in front of anybody as long as you hear it . i screwed up . i know it . i 've learned from it . we ca n't throw away what we have . we are worth fighting for . bill : i know this is hard . forgiveness is n't always easy . i 'm not easy . but we love each other , and we have to get past this . brooke : i want to [ sighs ] but -- bill : ridge was out of control , brooke . i would have done anything to stop him . but i miscalculated it . i did n't realize how dangerous it was . i just saw an opportunity , and i took it . i regret that it hurt him , that it hurt you . deacon : you regret that you got caught . bill : shut up , convict ! deacon : you know what ? bravo ! you know what this is ? hey , listen , forgive him if you have to , but make no mistake about this -- it 's a show . there 's no remorse . it 's fake . it 's all for you . he would throw ridge out of a helicopter today if he thought you would n't find out . liam : wyatt and i were supposed to have an understanding of what the boundaries are , what 's appropriate , what 's not appropriate . well , clearly , i was wrong about that , and you know what that means ? that means you have to put your foot down . he needs to hear it from you , not me . hope : that he 's fired ? liam : yes . hope : liam , this gift is not grounds for dismissal . liam : this gift is an affront to our entire relationship , and it is beyond inappropriate , hope . wyatt : hey , dial back the possessive - freaky - boyfriend thing you got going on here , liam . liam : you two bonded over this . this thing is part of what brought you both together , and the whole world knows that . and you do n't see a problem with this ? hope : liam ... i 'm not gon na fire wyatt . and [ sighs ] i 'm keeping the diamond . liam : okay . hope : liam . liam , do n't leave ! come back ! [ sighs ] ivy : you know what ? i ca n't be here watching this . aly : okay . wyatt : i - i did n't mean for -- aly : that 's it -- you and liam ? hope : oh , god . you scared me . aly : you just could n't let them be . you had to lure her back with this diamond . wyatt : aly , this is n't the time . [ cell phone rings ] aly : do you have any integrity ? i mean , this is your brother you 're messing with . wyatt : excuse me a second . aly : do n't let him do this . wyatt : hello ? aly : do n't let him manipulate you again . hope : i 'm not . that 's not what i 'm doing . wyatt : what ? i 'm so -- no . i do n't know if i can . aly : look , if you have someplace you need to be , i need to talk to hope alone . wyatt : stay put . i 'll be right there . if you need anything , i -- deacon : he 'll say anything to you . bill : do n't push me , mug shot . deacon : he 'll say anything to make you forget what he did . bill : not forget -- just forgive , move on , remember the life we 'd planned . brooke : you saw my pain . and the whole time , knowing what you did , you said nothing . bill : because i did n't want to see the look you 're giving me right now . brooke : i do love you . bill : i love you . is it enough ? deacon : give her some time . bill : tell me it 's enough . brooke : it 's not just something that i can get over . it 's -- i just ... need some time . deacon : she does n't want to deal with you right now . bill : i will never give up on us . ivy : liam . liam : hey . ivy : i thought you left . liam : no . yeah . i - i just [ chuckles ] needed some air . ivy : you know , i ca n't believe what happened down there . liam : this damn diamond , you know ? i feel like i 'm cursed . wyatt : hello ? i 'm here . quinn : i was n't sure you 'd come . hope : liam demanded that i fire wyatt and give back the diamond . aly : okay . well , could n't you have ? for liam ? hope : [ sighs ] liam is overreacting . he is asking too much , and it 's not fair . it 's not . wyatt is not doing what liam thinks he 's doing , and he just -- [ voice breaking ] he just left . i feel like we 've been working so hard to be together . we 've been working so hard , and now it 's like ... now i think i 'm losing him . liam : i just ca n't believe this is what it 's come to . ivy : you and hope , you mean ? liam : [ sighs ] if you -- [ chuckles ] if you knew what we 've been through ... ivy : do n't worry . i 've read all about it -- your almost weddings , runaway proposals , italy . liam : yeah , i know . it 's -- something 's always getting in the way . ivy : steffy ? liam : yeah , and my dad and wyatt and now this diamond . ivy : you do know it 's totally inappropriate for her to accept it ? liam : okay . so , i 'm not being unreasonable ? ivy : no ! not at all ! accepting a gift from any man -- it 's disrespectful . liam : [ chuckles ] i wish hope saw it that way . [ sighs ] wyatt : there 's no way you got released that soon . quinn : released ? i checked in voluntarily . wyatt : mom , it has n't even been that long . if you 're trying to tell me that everything is fine -- quinn : relax . i 'm still in treatment . wyatt : huh . quinn : hey , are n't you glad to see me ? wyatt : of course i am . quinn : i missed you . wyatt : you know , it 's been such a short time since you freaked out , and i 'm just supposed think everything is back to normal again , huh ? quinn : i have issues , and i am working on them . wyatt : hmm . quinn : look , i know what i did was wrong . i regret losing control . it 's horrible the danger i put liam in . wyatt : yeah . quinn . i 'm ashamed . but i - i- really am feeling better . i mean , treatment has helped me tremendously , and i am never going down that dark path again . wyatt : well , you ca n't . quinn : i wo n't . i promise . wyatt : i believe you . quinn : thank you . so ... have i missed anything ? wyatt : yeah -- a lot , actually . quinn : yeah ? fill me in . wyatt : well , first , the bad news . quinn : the bad news ? wyatt : yeah . ricardo montemayor died . quinn : what ? that 's terrible . was he sick ? wyatt : ( sighs ) not that i know of . quinn : well , what 's the good news ? wyatt : i was in his will . quinn : really ? ! wait . you do n't mean -- the diamond ? wyatt : yeah . and i already gave it to hope . quinn : oh , my god ! that is so romantic ! oh , i know she 's still with liam , but did she -- wyatt : well , maybe she is . maybe she is n't . quinn : what happened ? wyatt : he went into full - on jealous mode and flipped out on her for accepting it and told her she better give it back or else . quinn : and ? wyatt : she did n't give it back . quinn : [ gasps ] wyatt : [ chuckles ] quinn : wyatt ... wyatt : look , i do n't believe in the supernatural , okay ? but maybe this diamond really does have powers . i mean , it drove liam away . it really is priceless . deacon : that guy 's a jerk . brooke : you 're not helping . deacon : why ? he 's conceited . he 's stubborn . what ? he is . brooke : are you describing yourself or bill ? deacon : [ chuckles ] it would seem that you have a type , would n't it ? he 's not gon na change . brooke : now you 're gon na tell me you have . deacon : are you considering going back to him ? brooke : yes . deacon : well , then , you ought to consider me . brooke : deacon -- deacon : brooke , listen , i know this is out of right field , but most of the things i do are . i mean , if he can almost kill ridge and still have a chance with you , do n't i deserve one , too ? brooke : [ chuckles ] brooke : deacon , what we had was over a long time ago . deacon : and i want you back . brooke : uh , if you have n't noticed , i 'm in the middle of ... deacon : breaking up with bill ? that 's why i 'm putting this out there . brooke : no , i never said i was breaking up with bill . deacon : no , but you will after what he 's done . brooke : i do n't think you should talk . you want me to make a list of things you 've done over the years ? deacon : look , i 've made lots of mistakes , all right ? but i 'm ready to move past that , and i 'm ready to be a dad . brooke : great . i 've done my job not to interfere . if hope wants to allow you into her life , that 's her choice . deacon : i mean more than a dad . i want us to be parents . brooke : hope is an adult . the time for that has passed . deacon : brooke , it 's never too late to fix what should have always been . i never thought that you were gon na leave ridge , that he 'd be out of the picture , but now that he is , do n't go back to bill . come to me . ivy : you know , maybe this all worked out for the best . liam : what are you talking about ? ivy : well , if you 'd already married hope , that would have been your wife out there accepting a diamond from another man . at least this way , you got to see what wyatt really means to her . and i know that it 's painful , but you might be happy to look back and see that it all turned out this way . liam : no , no . ivy : well , you never know . some good might come from this . liam : i lost my fiancée , my brother , the life i planned for myself . i mean , i just walked out on all of it . trust me , ivy -- no good is coming from this . aly : liam took off , and , yes , he was upset , but that does n't necessarily mean what you 're thinking . hope : i did n't do what he wanted . aly : he is upset . but it 's -- i mean , you 're hope and liam . you 're not breaking up over this . if you would just change your mind ... just do n't do this . do n't push liam away . hope : there is [ sniffles ] a difference between private life and professional life , and i feel like i have learned to separate the two , but liam is just -- aly : but this is different . i mean , wyatt has interfered before . for him to give you that diamond -- hope : it 's all part of marketing for hope for the future . it is the key to the line 's success , you know ? and if liam really ca n't see that , well , then , god -- maybe we are just too far apart . aly : but he -- hope : maybe there 's a reason we did n't make it work . aly : he understands . but you are putting your professional life ahead of your personal life , and , hope , that is just crazy . that diamond feels like it 's jinxed . hope : it 's supposed to bring luck . aly : yeah , bad luck , like wyatt and his mother . if you are really making this choice , you 'll only bring trouble . quinn : liam does n't understand women at all . wyatt : apparently not . `` it 's wrong for you to accept jewelry from another man . `` blah , blah , blah . quinn : to think i almost ruined things , going after him for you -- we should have known all we had to do was wait . liam was bound to mess things up with hope the minute they got back together . wyatt : see ? let that be a lesson to you . [ cell phone rings ] wyatt : everything always works out in the end . [ sighs ] that 's odd . quinn : what ? wyatt : i think it 's a mexican area code . [ cell phone beeps ] wyatt : hello ? lt . barragan : wyatt spencer , please . wyatt : speaking . who is this ? lt . barragan : lieutenant barragan from the mexico city police department . wyatt : uh , what 's going on ? lt . barragan : you were an acquaintance of ricardo montemayor , were you not ? wyatt : wait . this is about ricardo ? lt . barragan : will you be in los angeles for the next few days ? wyatt : uh , yeah . why ? lt . barragan : i 'm making arrangements to come up there . i 'll need to set up a time to meet , ask a few questions . wyatt : about what ? lt . barragan : señor montemayor 's death . at first , we thought it was accidental , but now we 're investigating another possibility . wyatt : such as ? lt . barragan : murder . i 'll contact you when i 'm in town . wyatt : sure . quinn : who was that , honey ?
about as forceful as he can , wyatt tells liam this was a promise he made hope a long time ago about giving her the diamond and he 's only fulfilling that promise . liam says even though he knows how liam feels . wyatt says it is not about his feelings at all . liam says wyatt made a promise to him too . he trusted him and now he pulls this . and how he even came in possession of that diamond is ridiculous . aly and ivy continue to gossip and ivy says where she comes from you do n't accept jewelry from one man while engaged to another . aly convinces her to go listen in while wyatt is talking . he just ca n't brainwash hope again . liam turns to hope and says she is playing right into wyatt 's hand . surely she can see that . she tells him she knows it may look that way but it 's just good for forrester . liam says this is not about her line . this is about trust . and if she respects him then she will give wyatt back the diamond and tell him never to walk through those doors again . he 's told wyatt about boundaries but clearly he needs to hear it from her . that yes , he is fired . hope says this is not grounds for dismissal . liam rants that it is beyond what is appropriate . he tells wyatt that this diamond is what brought them together and the whole world knows that . and yet she does not see a problem with that . she tells him firmly that she is not going to fire wyatt and she is keeping the diamond . liam says one word – okay and storms off . tears well up in hope 's eyes . they let liam pass but then aly goes into the room and storms at wyatt that he just could n't let this pass . he 's luring hope again with the diamond and hurting his own brother . wyatt gets a phone call . aly says if he needs to go somewhere she needs to talk to hope alone . she tries to convince hope not to let wyatt manipulate her again . bill tells brooke that he made a mistake . he admits that . deacon mocks him for groveling . bill tells him surely there is a license plate he needs to go make . brooke tries to quiet deacon so she can listen to bill . bill says he does n't want to say anything in front of this loser but he will as long as she hears it . he screwed up , he knows it and he learned from it . they are worth fighting for and they ca n't throw away what they have . it wo n't be easy ; he 's not easy but they love each other and have to get past this . he says he did n't realize how dangerous it would be for ridge . he saw an opportunity and took it . he regrets that it hurt brooke . deacon says he is just hurt that he got caught . bill tells the convict to shut up . deacon claps his hands and says it is all show and a fake ; all for brooke . he 'd throw ridge out of a helicopter now if he thought she would not find out . he 'd say anything to make her forget what he did . bill tells mug shot to shut up . he does n't expect her to forget just forgive and move on . she reminds him that she was in pain and yet he said nothing . he says only because he did not want to see the look on her face that she has right now . he tells her that he loves her and he hopes that is enough . she says she needs time . deacon pipes up that she does n't want to deal with bill right now . bill cups her face with both hands and says he will never give up on them . when bill is gone deacon asks brooke if she is even considering going back to him as he is not going to change . if so , then consider him too . she says what they had was over a long time ago . he says he wants her back . she says she is sort of in the middle of something and she could make a list of all the things deacon has done wrong over the years . he agrees but says he is trying to do better and be a good dad . brooke says okay and she is not interfering . whatever choice hope makes about him is her own . he says he wants them to be parents . she says hope is an adult so the time for that is past . deacon says he never thought she would ever leave ridge but now that she has do not go back to bill but come to him . he surprises her with a kiss . not sure how to respond she pulls away . ivy follows liam out to the rooftop . he says he just needed some air ; he feels like with this diamond he is cursed . she tells him maybe this happened for the best . at least he is not married to hope when this happened . he says he lost his fiance and a brother and the life he wanted for himself and he walked out on them . nothing good is coming from this . wyatt goes to the warehouse loft and announces he is there . quinn slowly walks out and says she was not sure he would come . he closes the door and says no way she could have been released that soon . she replies that she checked herself in . he says it has n't been that long so do n't tell him that everything is all right ; she tells him to relax she is still in treatment . she says she missed him and she hopes he is glad to see her too . he says it has n't been that long ago that she freaked out and he 's supposed to believe that all is okay . she admits she had issues . and she is working on them . she knows what she did was wrong . she hates that she lost control and the danger she put liam in . she is ashamed but she is so much better in treatment and she will never go down that dark path again . he admits that she ca n't . she promises she wo n't . with hesitation he says he believes her .
brooke : another successful spencer summit . bill : we raised a ton of money for charity . brooke : okay . so , who really won -- spectra or forrester ? bill : the kids . just bidding , no voting . brooke : really ? i want the truth . wyatt : no real winner ? katie : [ laughs ] wyatt : the results had to have been tallied . they were going straight to his phone . i mean , could spectra fashions really have won this thing ? katie : i guess the world will never know . wyatt : that 's just crazy . katie : [ chuckles ] wyatt : but i , um ... i have to commend you . katie : for what ? wyatt : a job well done . katie : [ chuckles ] wyatt : this fashion show was a huge success . and now we -- now we get some time to relax . katie : right . yeah . i mean ... i really enjoyed working with you , and -- and i look forward to future projects . wyatt : [ chuckles ] katie : but i , for one , am glad that this one is over . wyatt : oh . right ? i was counting down the hours . katie : i mean , we 've been working really hard , and with the excitement and the jet lag , i mean , that -- that must explain it . wyatt : uh , explain what ? katie : why we kissed . wyatt : [ chuckles ] right . yeah . i mean , overworked ... just coming down off that high of the fashion show , raising $ 1.1 million . katie : yeah , that is awesome . wyatt : that 's -- that 's got to be the reason why we -- we , uh -- we kissed .

brooke asks bill who really won the fashion show – spectra or forrester . he says the kids won with all their bidding for charity ; so everyone won . it was a big charity event and very successful . he suggests that everybody find their own way home and they need some alone time on the jet so she can be with her stallion . alone he checks his phone and sees that spectra received the most votes . wyatt and katie discuss it too and then dismiss their kiss as being caught up in the moment . katie said they were just celebrating , just a onetime thing . however , she is totally into it when he kisses her again . zende tells nicole that the best part of the day was seeing her on the runway . she outdid all the models . sally asks thomas if he thinks they could have won but his mind is not on that so he opts out of the discussion . he thinks back on what bill said about caroline dying . rick asks nicole if modeling is in her future . she laments that she could get used to it . caroline calls bill and tells him again that she is not going along with this lie anymore . bill reminds her that she wants thomas for her son so it 's best to leave it as it is as thomas and sally are getting even closer so she needs to split that up fast . then there will be a miracle cure ; thomas will never know . thomas needs to man up and be with his son so if he does n't then they need to give him a nudge . he tells her to hang up and call thomas now .
bill : let 's do this , steffy . let 's start our life together , right here , right now . steffy : today ? i mean , i just -- i do n't think it 's -- bill : the wedding dress is upstairs for you in the nursery . go put it on . i 've got someone on standby to come here and marry us . steffy : i mean , what 's the rush ? bill : i want to seal the deal before you convince yourself to run for the hills . because that would be the worst mistake you could make . ridge : i can feel steffy slipping away . something 's going on . i do n't know what it is , but ... it 's like something is broken . liam : yeah . ridge : she 's dying inside . liam : yeah , it 's broken . yeah , she 's dying inside . she wants to be with my father . ridge : that 's not what she wants . liam : ridge , she wants to -- ridge : stop ! she 's given up on life , on happiness because of you ! she 's running to bill because she thinks it 's the only option she has left in life . that 's why she 's wearing that stupid necklace ! do something . stand up , go to her , and talk to her , please . brooke : steffy had her chance , and she ruined it . hope : maybe so , but i ca n't help but feel awful for her finding liam and me together . brooke : honey , it 's not your fault . hope : no , i -- we were caught up . we were excited about the fashion show . brooke : yeah , but it 's more than just your success . you 're carrying his child , and you two have such a bond that you 've had for so many years . hope : i know . i just wish that she did n't have to see us together like that . brooke : yeah , well , she did . and she went straight to bill . which proves that they belong together . and that you and liam are meant to be . brooke : you ca n't worry about steffy . you have your own life and your own child to think about . you and liam should be so happy . this is an incredible time for the two of you , and you 've got to enjoy it . hope : i am excited about what the future could be , i just -- i just wish that no one had to get hurt . ridge : i 'm sorry , liam . i did n't come here to berate you , i came here because .... because i respect you . you 're like a son to me . and steffy does n't want to be with spencer , she wants to be with you . but she ca n't tell you that because you broke her heart . liam : [ sighs ] i know . i know . i messed up . but the fact that she would turn to my father , i ... after all the trouble he 's caused her , i mean , does n't that ... does n't that tell you everything you need to know ? does n't that speak volumes ? i mean , if i hurt steffy , and she chooses my dad to lean on , i 'm not -- i 'm not gon na try and stop her because i can't . i can't . bill : i 've never felt this way before , steffy , not like this . i 've done things for you that i would never do for any other woman . i took a bullet from your mother . and i would take a bullet for you . i will work every day to put a smile on that beautiful face . a smile i have n't seen for too long . make a fresh start . marry me , steffy . marry me . ridge : hey . brooke : hey . ridge : i found liam at wyatt 's . i tried to get through to him . brooke : and ? what did he say ? ridge : what 's he gon na say ? he got caught cheating with hope by steffy . i 'm just glad that , uh , she did n't walk in any later than she did . brooke : ridge , you do n't have to make it sound so cheap . ridge : it is cheap . it 's inappropriate . brooke : okay , well , i 'm sorry that steffy had to experience that . i mean , it must not have been very pleasant for her . ridge : [ scoffs ] brooke : but we know that liam has been at a crossroads , and he 's had a tough decision to make . but it 's pretty clear that he chose hope for his future . ridge : well , i do n't want to talk about that , all right ? i 'm concerned about my daughter . brooke : i know you are . ridge : she 's a powerful , self - confident woman . she does n't need anybody . she does n't need bill spencer . i do n't care what he 's offering . brooke : yeah , but she keeps leaving the door open for him to come back in . ridge : oh , wow . brooke : so maybe she does have feelings for him . ridge : that 's -- no . brooke : ridge , i think that 's something that you 're going to have to consider . ridge : no , i 'm not . i will never accept bill spencer for my daughter . [ knocks on door ] hope : hey . you 're here . liam : hey . hope : i thought i might have to grab one of wyatt 's surfboards and find you out on some big , scary wave . liam : [ chuckles ] no , i 'm here . uh , come on in . hope : well , that 's good because the water looks very cold . i guess i should have called first . liam : no . no , you 're good . it 's just me . in fact , i 'm not sure where wyatt is . hope : is everything okay ? i mean , as okay as it can be . liam : right , um ... obviously i 'm still thinking about steffy . hope : yeah , i 've been thinking about her , too . i feel terrible that she walked in when she did . liam : [ sighs ] nothing we can do about it now . hope : no , i guess not . i just -- i just wish there was something i could say . liam : it is what it is . still , i ... i ca n't help but worry about steffy . bill : liam made his choice . he ended up in hope 's arms . now , i know that still hurts you , but it does n't have to . not if you move on with me . your life has been filled with uncertainty . liam has always waffled between two women , and i know that pains you . i mean , it 's etched all over your face . but i will take that pain away , and i will replace it with so much joy . steffy : bill , this is all happening way too quickly . bill : why wait , steffy ? it 's so clear to me . you 're at a crossroads . there are two ways you can go . one is with liam , a man who has never , ever fully committed to you . and now he 's having a baby with hope , which will connect them forever . or me . a man who will protect you and kelly , who will give you a lifetime of happiness . now , i will say this with all the humility i can muster . the decision is obvious . i 'm the clear choice for your future . steffy : you 're right , bill . i 'm at a point where i need to make a choice . ridge : steffy 's not gon na be with spencer . she does n't want the guy . she does n't even like him . brooke : you sure about that ? ridge : yes ! come on , i know my daughter . i -- at least i thought i knew her . brooke : ridge , she 's not a child anymore . she 's a grown woman . and she just had a baby . so she has a heightened sense of being a mother , of nurturing , protecting her child , and i 'm sure she 'd like a man around that could be there and support her and kelly . ridge : and you think that man is spencer ? really ? brooke : i do n't know , ridge , but i always believed that there was something there between steffy and bill . ridge : no , there 's not . it 's not happening . brooke : if they end up getting married , you 're gon na learn to deal with it . steffy needs your blessing . and so do hope and liam . hope : you tried talking to steffy . liam : yeah . she did n't want to hear it . hope : i have to be honest . as guilty as i feel about what happened , i ca n't apologize for how i feel about you , for wanting to spend a life together . especially now that i 'm pregnant , you know , i want the very best for our child . liam : yeah . me , too . hope : and i know you want what 's best for kelly . she 's your daughter . and it 's a lot of pressure , and i do not want to add to it . liam : hope , i do n't -- i do n't feel pressured by you . okay ? i 'm actually really excited about our baby . hope : yeah , but it is -- it 's a lot to take in . liam : yeah . hope : i understand . you know , i was talking to my mom , and she thinks that steffy turning to bill proves that they were connected all along , maybe more than some of us realized . i know how hard it will be if steffy really does marry bill . steffy : i 'm at a place in my life where i have to make a commitment . do i forgive liam , continue to fight for him and our family ? bill : even after you caught him with hope ? you ca n't do that . liam made his choice . he made his choice the night he proposed to hope . the night he got her pregnant . steffy : yeah , it 's hard to argue with that . bill : [ sighs ] steffy : we 've had a very strange relationship . moments i 'll remember . moments i 'd like to forget . i appreciate your sentiment and your regard for me and my little girl . your willingness to give me your shares of forrester creations . but i ca n't marry you , bill . i 'm not in love with you . bill : you 'll get there . steffy : no . no , i won't . bill : you 're right . it 's obviously too soon . we 'll just be together . steffy : bill , you 're not listening to me . bill : you 're not going back to liam . steffy : no . bill : you 're not choosing liam or me ? then what ? steffy : you forgot another choice . the choice i 'm gon na make . me . my choice is me . ridge : spencer 's gon na ruin steffy 's life . brooke : you have to trust that steffy knows what she 's doing . if she thinks she can make it work with bill , you 're gon na have to come to terms with that . ridge : she does n't need spencer . she has me . she has a whole family that supports her . brooke : yes , she does . she has a lot of people in her life . but she lost liam . and i think she 's finally accepting that . liam : no matter what , steffy deserves better than my father . he 's not a decent person . hope : and if she marries him , he 's gon na be a big part of your daughter 's life . liam : okay , that -- the idea that he could have that much influence , that freaks me out . i do n't want him near kelly . i do n't want him near steffy . he 's not good for anyone . hope : maybe a part of her is afraid of being alone . liam : steffy 's not afraid of being alone . she 's not afraid of anything . hope : the stakes have changed . she 's a mom now . liam : yeah , she 's a mom , and she 's buying into all of his false promises , and it 's gon na hurt her . hope : but it 's out of your control . steffy knows what kind of man your father is . she knows what he is capable of . liam : see , that -- this is ... this is what i do n't understand . she knows exactly what she 's signing up for , and she 's doing it anyway . i mean , after everything that he 's put her through , you know , the lies and the scheming and the chaos that he 's brought to her life ... and she wants to be his wife ? bill : when you accepted the necklace , i was certain . steffy : my head has been spinning . bill : of course it has . you caught liam cheating on you . steffy : and you manipulated me . you used me to trick liam . you lost your way , bill . you stopped putting your family first . hope would n't be pregnant if it were n't for your manipulations . you pitted your son against son with your bribes and your lies . you blackmailed me . you threatened to put my mom in prison if i married liam , and i 'm not excusing him , but i need to rise above . i need rise above this heartache and this pain . i 've had enough . i need to focus on myself and my daughter . bill : you should n't be alone . steffy : like you said , i 'm a strong , independent woman . i can take care of myself . bill : what about us ? steffy : i was angry . angry with liam , so i lashed out . but this is n't me . this is n't what i want . bill : just say that you 'll keep your heart open to me . steffy : bill ... bill : wait . steffy : i do n't -- i do n't want the shares . bill : this was your wedding present . i want you to have them . take them . steffy : i can't . bill : please , steffy . take them as a symbol of my love for you . steffy : bill , i do n't know if it 's right . bill : could n't be more right . you 're the c.e.o . of forrester . i know how much they mean to you . this is your family 's business , not mine . you deserve them . no strings attached . i just want the best for you . steffy : thank you , bill . my grandmother would be thrilled knowing these are back in the family . i 'll be passing them down to my daughter someday . i 'll show her the good that comes from being true to yourself . because that 's what i 'm doing . i 'm gon na raise kelly the best way i can . and i know it 's not the perfect situation , but it 's enough . everything in me . my strength , my encouragement . my love , i 'm gon na give to her . because kelly is my life now . and i want her to be proud of me . i want to raise a strong , thoughtful girl , and to do that , i need to be whole . i need to be on my own for a while . until i finally meet someone who really appreciates me , but ... it 's okay if i don't . because i have my little girl and i have my family and i have my friends and i have my career . i do n't need a man to make me whole . it 's my job to do that . i do n't belong to anyone , bill . . . .
ridge tells liam that steffy has given up on life and that is the only reason she is running to bill . so do something , go talk to her and stop her . ridge says she wants liam , not bill but she can not admit that to him since he broke her heart . liam says he knows that he hurt her but after all that she ran back a second time to bill simply means that he can not go to her now . bill pleads over and over for steffy to choose today to take control of her life and be with him ; get married . he wants to put a smile back on her face . he laments that she is at a crossroads and she can go either way – to liam a man who can not fully commit to her or him who always will and he can offer her the world . brooke tells hope to forget focusing on steffy and kelly . she has her own life and baby to think about . ridge comes home and steffy is still on his mind . brooke says she is sorry that steffy had to experience all of this . ridge says no matter what he will not accept bill spencer as steffy 's husband . he says she does not even like bill . he knows his daughter . brooke says she is a grown woman who just had a baby and ridge does not know her as well as he thinks he does . she is drawn to bill . steffy tells bill that she knows she has to make a choice ; to forgive liam and continue to fight for him or turn away . she appreciates his sentiment and his concern for her and her little girl and to give her his shares , but she is not in love with him and can not marry him . he says she will in time but she says again she ca n't . he says okay it is too soon . they can wait until later as long as she does not go back to liam . she says he forgot there is another choice – `` me `` . she is choosing herself .
liam : oh , my god . oh , my god . beth . oh , my baby girl . let me look at you . let me look at you . oh , wow . steffy : liam , what are you doing ? liam : steffy ... this is beth . she 's alive . steffy : no , that 's not her . that 's phoebe . liam : this is beth .

[ cellphone chimes ] hope : [ sighs ] steffy : what is going on with you ? why are you calling phoebe beth ? liam : because phoebe is beth . steffy : look , i - i know douglas told you that , but he 's a little boy . he has no idea what he 's saying . liam : listen , steffy , he 's in there right now . go talk to him yourself . you 'll see . steffy : this is my daughter we 're talking about . phoebe . beth is gone . liam , i 'm sorry . there 's just no way beth could be alive . liam : douglas heard his father saying that beth is still alive , and that phoebe is her . steffy : why would he say such a thing ? liam : this is what they were talking about after the wedding . thomas told flo not to let it slip , the secret , right -- a secret that has to do with hope . it 's -- this is all making sense now . she 's the secret , steffy ! that 's beth ! brows for days . flo : before i say anything else , i - i want you to try to understand everything that i 've gone through since i came to los angeles . wyatt : well , yeah . you 've had a lot of changes in your life . flo : yeah . yeah , a lot of -- a lot of amazing changes . like you . wyatt : okay . but i -- i sense a `` but `` coming on . flo : i did someone a favor . someone who i thought was a friend . and i got wrapped up in something that i am ... i am so ashamed of . but ... wyatt : [ murmurs ] flo : if i had n't come to los angeles , i - i would n't have reconnected with you . i would n't have found out who my father was , that i 'm a logan . i - i would n't have this amazing family . i wouldn't ... i would n't have this job at forrester . i would n't be living in this house with this ... wonderful man that i never stopped loving . wyatt : i - i know . i love you , too . but i 've -- i 've known that something has been up for a few days now . [ flo sighs ] and whatever it is , we will get through it . okay ? you just -- you just have to be honest with me , all right ? do n't -- do n't hold back . flo : you deserve the truth . everyone does . i need to come clean . wyatt : right . uh , about thomas ? flo : and your brother . and hope . [ door opens ] thomas : hey , there , beautiful wife . hope : heh ... uh , where 'd you go ? thomas : oh , i just went over to the valet . i forgot to get my ticket from them . you have n't touched your champagne . hope : i was waiting for you . thomas : well , i am here now . it 's time to get this started . hope : you know what , it 's still pretty early . so , i mean , let 's do something . i - i hear there 's a great spa in the hotel . thomas : maybe tomorrow . today we could , uh , give each other massages . that way , we can stay in the room . just be alone with one another . like a couple would on their honeymoon . that 's what i want . i want us to be together . i want to show you just how much i love you . i 'm your husband now . i want us to be together . you know , fully commit to each other . the way a husband and wife should . steffy : this is ridiculous , liam ! you 're not making any sense ! liam : no , it 's finally starting to make sense . this -- this is why flo slipped up . steffy : what ? liam : wyatt -- wyatt asked her what was wrong , and she said she 's never had a baby . steffy : o - okay , liam , i -- i think you might be having a breakdown . let 's just sit down for a second -- liam : i 'm not having a nervous breakdown ! beth is not dead . she 's in there . she 's in that room right now . steffy : stop . stop ! you 're gon na say that while douglas is in the other room ? ! liam : douglas is the one who told me ! steffy : he 's in pain from losing his mom ! all this talk about death and heaven , maybe he thinks phoebe is an angel . liam : okay , what about the doctor ? the doctor confirmed -- there is no record of flo giving birth . how do you explain that , steffy ? steffy : i do n't -- i do n't know . i do n't know . maybe there 's an explanation . there has to be . flo will straighten it out . liam : flo ? ! oh , my god ! fl -- flo has known this whole time ! steffy : you need to stop . liam : th -- [ sighs ] steffy : you are jumping to conclusions . making assumptions that -- from a boy that told you that ! liam : steffy , i believe him . i believe douglas . he 's j -- he 's just repeating what his father told him . i know this is hard for you to digest , but your brother 's not the man you think he is . he 's a horrible person . and he has had a secret with flo , and that 's it ! that 's the secret , in there ! that 's beth ! that is my baby ! liam : you just -- you got to hear me out . steffy : you 're not thinking clearly . everything you 're saying is insane . liam : i know -- i know it sounds insane , steffy . i know that . it is insane . but it fits , okay ? look -- wh - why has hope been so attached to phoebe all this time ? what -- what is that about ? now it makes sense . steffy : okay . liam , i - i know you want it to be true . i know you wish beth was alive -- liam : no . no , no , no . okay . okay , just [ sighs ] listen for a second . the -- the private conversation between thomas and flo that i overheard , right -- he was intense . he 's , like , threatening her to keep the secret until the day she dies . why ? what is the one thing that your brother wants more than anything ? hope . what is the one thing that would cause her to leave him ? steffy : beth was stillborn ! she died when hope gave birth to her . liam : you just -- you just have to trust me , steffy . i - i know that that 's beth . i -- every fiber of my being knows that that little girl is the baby that hope and i lost . i - i -- i just -- i know it . steffy : but you saw beth at the hospital that night . you saw that she was n't breathing . she was n't alive . hope held her . how do you explain that ? liam : i do n't know yet . i do n't know . but -- steffy : liam ... liam : [ sighs ] steffy : i am so sorry . but beth is gone . that 's phoebe in there . that 's flo 's birth daughter . liam : well , there 's only one person who can verify that . and that 's flo . thomas : i , uh , got a little gift for you . i thought the color would look perfect on you . hope : heh ... thomas : i hope you like it . hope : um ... it 's -- it 's nice . thomas : does that mean you 'll , uh , try it on for me ? just , uh ... heh ... thought it might help us connect . you know , there 's no pressure . but , um ... i mean , i thought it would look gorgeous on you ... my beautiful wife . hope : okay . wyatt : my brother and hope . what happened with you and thomas ? my brother said he heard the two of your arguing at hope 's wedding . flo : he did ? wyatt : yeah . and -- and something about a secret . is that what this is about ? flo : yeah . this is something that i 've wanted to do for a really long time now , but everyone kept talking me out of it . even if it means risking losing you , i - i -- you need to -- wyatt : wait , you 're not -- no . hey , you 're not gon na lose me . all right ? whatever it is -- i - i do n't care what it is , okay ? i 'm not -- i 'm not going anywhere . flo : can you just hold me , wyatt ? wyatt : yes . yeah . flo : this might be the last time i ever feel your arms around me . wyatt : whatever this is , it ca n't be that bad . all right ? so stop worrying . hey , look at me . talk to me . all right ? what is it ? look , you said it had to do with -- with hope and liam , right ? flo : yeah . and their baby , beth . wyatt : i -- [ door opens ] liam : we need to talk . wyatt : what are you doi -- we 're in the middle of something here . liam : yeah , well , it ca n't wait . wyatt : [ stammers ] she 's about to tell me something about you and hope and beth . liam : oh . you know , what hope and i have been through this last year destroyed us . it did n't just ruin our marriage . it ruined our lives . and y - you -- you let it happen . you sat back , and you watched us crumble . yeah , i know your secret . you 've been lying to us for months . you were never pregnant . and you certainly never gave birth to phoebe . it 's time , flo . admit it . i 'm phil mickelson . douglas : where did liam go ? steffy : uh , he -- he went out for a bit . douglas : are you mad at me , aunt steffy ? steffy : no , douglas . i 'm not mad at you . douglas : are you gon na call my dad ? i want to stay here with you tonight . steffy : [ chuckles ] you are gon na stay here . after your play date . we 're gon na have a sleepover , remember ? [ baby crying ] douglas : that 's beth crying . steffy : no , it 's -- it 's phoebe . i 'll be right back . [ murmurs ] come here . i got you . shhh . mommy 's got you , phoebe . mommy 's got you . [ sinister music plays ] thomas : heh ... wow . you , uh ... you look ... beautiful . wyatt : liam , what are you even saying right now ? liam : just tell wyatt the truth , flo . wyatt : you are accusing her of lying about her baby ! like , i know you 're upset about thomas and hope , but i 'm not gon na let you take your bitterness out on flo . liam : wyatt , she already told you she never had a baby . remember that ? wyatt : she explained that it was too painful , all right ? ! giving up phoebe , that was hard for her ! liam : gi - giving up -- yeah , she gave up phoebe . that does n't mean she gave birth to her . wyatt : oh , my god . liam : you know , i called the hospital in vegas . the doctor was on vacation when you supposedly gave birth . she never even heard of you . she never delivered your baby because you never had one ! wyatt : so what ? ! you probably called the wrong doctor . liam : we 're talking about the doctor 's name on the birth certificate , wyatt ! the certificate that she signed . i 'm sorry , that you faked . wyatt : a fake birth certificate ? ! liam : just admit it , flo ! just tell the damn truth for once ! wyatt : hey , stop yelling at her , all right ? you are accusing her of things . clearly this is a mix - up ! flo : no , he 's right . [ sobs ] he 's right . i 've never been pregnant . i 've never had a baby . liam : [ sighs ] wyatt : what ? flo : [ exhales deeply ] liam : who was pregnant ? who had the baby ? look , we both know the answer . just say the name , flo . just say the -- say the name ! please ! just say the name ! flo : hope ! hope ! hope is the mother . it 's -- it 's hope .
liam continues to look at beth and with douglas smiling liam tells steffy that this is beth she is alive . at the same moment while thomas is meeting his friend , vinny , hope opens her purse and takes out beth 's ultrasound . wyatt rushes home and wants to know what is wrong . flo says it is thomas and not like he might think . vinny hands thomas a packet of three pills and says it is his honeymoon , this is all to the good . thomas hesitates but puts them in his pocket . he goes back to hope and wants to start their celebration . she suggests they have time now so they could go down to the spa . he says that would be nice if they could give each other massages like couples do . he states again despite saying earlier he would go slow and take his time , he now wants to be with her as a married couple . he hands her a pretty shopping bag and thinks what is inside will look good on her . she opens it and it is a frilly almost nothing . he asks if she will try it on for him although he knows she will look good in it . she goes to another room to change . when she returns from the bathroom , thomas has had time to put the pills inside a magazine on the bedside table and time to take hope 's phone out of her purse and put it on mute and puts it in a faraway desk drawer . he takes off his shirt and wants to proceed . flo tells wyatt that before she starts she wants him to understand all that she has been through since she came to l.a. she got involved in something she is ashamed of . then she met him who she had never stopped loving . he tells her not to hold back ; just be honest with him . she will not lose him no matter what she says . sadly she tells him it involves thomas , liam and hope .
dante : that 's it . do n't move now . i think i 've got myself the next mona lisa on my hands . look at those eyes . your mother 's gon na have to fight those boys off with a stick . brooke : dante ? dante : buongiorno ! that 's `` good morning `` in italian . brooke : what are you doing here ? hope : look , mommy . brooke : oh , wow . that 's beautiful . that looks just like you . dante : your daughter agreed to model for me today . since we were both up at the crack of dawn , right ? brooke : you spent the night here ? dante : bridget 's idea . she actually has something more permanent in mind . brooke : permanent ? hope : dante lives here now . brooke : oh . honey , why do n't you take that picture and show catherine . and then she can fix you some breakfast , okay ? i thought you were staying at the beach house . dante : well , bridget 's father needed a place to stay . brooke : right , just another causality of stephanie 's lie . dante : well , the dissolution of marriage is always painful . no matter who 's responsible . brooke : so , you 're taking stephanie 's side ? dante : not at all . i do n't even know what it must be like . you know , finding out that the woman you 're married to all these -- i 'm sorry . you know what , it 's none of my business . if you wish , i can go somewhere else . brooke : no , look , it 's okay , really . you can stay here . any friend of bridget 's is a friend of mine . dante : you think ridge wo n't mind ? brooke : ridge ? dante : well , yeah . is n't he upstairs ? brooke : no . no , he stayed with taylor . dante : oh . bridget seemed to think , you know , that after what happened last night that -- brooke : no , i know , i know . i thought that , too . but even after stephanie 's big lie , it 's still over for ridge and me . we 're done . [ scene_break ] taylor : oh , god , ridge ! where have you been ? i 've been worried sick ! ridge : did n't you get my message ? taylor : yes . but all you said was that you needed some time . ridge : yeah , well , i drove around a while . i wound up at zuma beach . sat there for hours , looking at the water . wondering why i did n't see through my mother sooner . taylor : so you did n't spend the night at brooke 's ? ridge : brooke 's ? no , of course not . i just had to make sure she was okay after everything she 's been through , courtesy of my mother . taylor : are you feeling responsible ? ridge : i am responsible , taylor . i should 've put a stop to this a long time ago . taylor : stephanie staging her heart attack is not your fault , ridge . ridge : for years , i 've had blinders on . i should have protected brooke . she 's the mother of my little boy , for god 's sakes . but instead -- instead , i let my mother manipulate me into a decision . taylor : a decision you would n't have made otherwise ? ridge : no , no . i did n't mean it that way . taylor : are you sure you did n't ? look , ridge . i realize a lot of things have changed since last night . so please , just tell me the truth . if your mother had n't lied to you , would you still have chosen me instead of brooke ? [ scene_break ] dante : i 'm so sorry , brooke . you know , letting go of someone you love is never easy . brooke : i thought when ridge found out what his mother had done it would put everything in perspective . and i would give him one more chance -- which i swore i never would do . dante : yeah , but since ridge was a victim , too -- brooke : right . so it only seemed fair , to him and to me and to the kids . that i give him another chance to make a decision without stephanie 's manipulations . dante : but he could n't make a decision . he could n't commit . brooke : no . not to me . not to the kids . not to our future . he just stood there . you know , i 'm not really sure he knows how to make a decision , because his mother 's been controlling him for so many years . dante : so you made a decision you needed to make for your life ? brooke : right , and for the lives of my son and my daughter . dante : a life apart from ridge . brooke : yes . it 's not going to be easy , but i owe it to myself and to my children to give us the best life possible without any drama . dante : you know , you are one gutsy lady , brooke logan . you know what ? i 'll tell you what i told your daughter -- that there is a life away from the forrester family -- a healthier one . you know what i mean ? brooke : right . [ brooke laughs ] well , that 's what i 'm counting on . dante : speaking of which -- you know , forrester creations could certainly use your help . you know , with spectra gaining on you like this . brooke : so , you follow the fashion industry , huh ? dante : well , you know , as an artist , i find it interesting . i even went to the fashion show that forrester held in rome . brooke : really ? dante : yeah . brooke : what did you think ? dante : well -- brooke : that good , huh ? dante : well , yeah , you know , i 'm not much of an expert , but -- brooke : but -- dante : it kind of lacked the forrester sizzle . brooke : sizzle ? right . yeah , that 's what we 're missing . you would n't be looking for a job , by any chance , would you ? dante : in exchange for room and board ? brooke : you know , forrester 's always looking for a fresh eye . and given the way bridget raves about your work . dante : yeah , but i do n't have much experience in this kind of stuff , you know ? brooke : that 's okay . i did n't either when i first started . dante : and look where you are right now . brooke : so do you wan na meet with the team ? dante : could i at least have a couple of days to put a portfolio together ? brooke : of course . i did n't mean right this minute . besides , i 'm playing hooky myself today to spend some quality time with my kids . dante : by the pool ? brooke : hope told you . dante : well , she begged me to go swimming with her . brooke : ah , and you ca n't let a young lady down , right ? dante : well , only if you do n't mind . i mean , i do n't want to intrude . brooke : no , i do n't mind . hope will love it . dante : all right . i 'll go change . [ doorbell rings ] do you want me to get it ? brooke : oh , no , it 's all right . i 'll get it . [ scene_break ] ridge : are you questioning my love for you ? taylor : no . i know you love me . it 's just , the way you 're talking , i ca n't help but wonder -- ridge : wonder what ? taylor : i know brooke , okay ? i know she 's thinking because of what stephanie did that that changes everything . and i 'm sure she must 've said that to you last night . that it 's not too late for you to change your mind . is that what you 're doing ? are you changing your mind ? ridge , please , just talk to me ! you know , i 've been up all night . i 've been worried to death about you . i did n't know where you were . i did n't know if you were with brooke or what was going on . and now you 're back here , and you do n't even seem happy . i just do n't get it . did brooke ask you to make a life with her ? she did , did n't she ? ridge : yes . taylor : and ? ridge : and when i hesitated she told me to forget it . she 's moving on without me . taylor : you hesitated ? ridge : i 'm still trying to deal with everything that happened , doc . i was n't prepared to tell brooke anything . but she could n't handle that . she had to know right then . taylor : i know how she feels , ridge . i feel exactly the same way . ridge : doc , it is not how it sounds . taylor : meaning you told her you could n't have a life with her because you 're committed to me and our children ? ridge : i did n't get a chance to say that . taylor : but you would have told her that ? ridge : i did n't wan na say anything to her until i thought it through . taylor : did you tell her you love her ? ridge : i do love her , taylor . i ca n't pretend i do n't . i mean , just because you 've come into my life again -- taylor : i 'm not asking you to pretend anything . ridge : why 's it feel like you 're accusing me of betraying you here ? did i say or do something to make you think that ? taylor : no , ridge , i 'm not accusing you of anything . and it 's not what you said , it 's what you did n't say . when brooke asked you to make a life with her , you did n't say , `` i 've already made a life with taylor . that 's the life i want . `` and the fact you could n't say that -- ridge : well , i do n't know why i did n't say it ! i do n't know . maybe i was trying to spare her feelings , i guess . taylor : or maybe you 're with me and our children out of obligation . and maybe you 're trying to spare my feelings . is that it ? [ scene_break ] brooke : you sure you do n't want me to make you something to eat ? eric : no , no , thanks . i had something at the beach house . i spent the night down there , trying to clear my head . but all i can really see is this image of me standing by stephanie 's hospital bed , pleading with god to let her survive . she made such a fool out of me . brooke : you 're her husband , eric . you want to see the best in her . eric : yeah , well , all i see now is ugliness . years and years of lies and ugliness . brooke : it was n't all lies . she really did love you . it 's just that she hates me more . eric : i 'm sorry . i drag all my problems in here -- you 're really the injured party here . brooke : no , do n't worry about me . i 'm fine . eric : yeah , as soon as you and ridge get back together . or , at least , you will , once the dust all settles . where is he ? i assumed he 'd be here . brooke : no . eric : did something happen ? brooke : it 's over , eric . ridge and i are n't getting back together . eric : but i thought once he was made aware of stephanie 's manipulation of this whole thing that -- brooke : he was very upset about what his mother did , but that 's about it . eric : what are you saying ? brooke : ridge and i had a conversation last night . and when it came down to it , he just could n't commit to me and to our children . eric : why the hell not ? brooke : i do n't know . you 're gon na have to ask our son yourself . but i refuse to think about it for one more minute . eric : no wait , wait , brooke , brooke , listen . listen to me . ridge is just confused now . you have to give him a little more time . brooke : eric , i 've given him a lifetime -- of love , of devotion , of commitment . and he could n't give me that same commitment back . and it hurts . it hurts more than i can even say . so i am putting ridge behind me and i am moving on with my life . i 'm gon na make a life for me and my children . if i do n't , i 'll just never be happy . eric : you really mean it ? you 're moving on ? brooke : i 'm tired of being ridge 's doormat . are n't you tired of being stephanie 's ? eric : yes . i 'm tired of making excuses for her behavior all these years , that 's what i 'm tired of . brooke : you just wanted to believe that she had the family 's best interest at heart . eric : yeah . when really , he 's just a selfish , spoiled control freak . insisting on her own way , everybody else be damned . i just ca n't take it anymore . brooke : you should n't have to , eric . you deserve so much more . eric : so do you , sweet girl . so do you . come here , sit down . sit . we -- we were happy when we were married . brooke : and we raised two beautiful , wonderful children . eric : yeah . and the only thing that came between us was -- brooke : my unresolved feelings for ridge . more time wasted , people hurt . eric : we both made mistakes . the important thing is we learned from them . brooke : true . eric : what people usually do n't get , though , is like a second chance . and i 'm -- i 'm wondering if that 's what we 're looking at here . brooke : what do you mean ? eric : when i kissed you last night , when i admitted how much i love you -- it was n't just to spite stephanie . i meant it . i love you . i know you . i know what it 's like to share a life with you . and so , i 'm wondering if maybe we should try to do that again . what do you think ? brooke : what are you saying ? eric : marry me , brooke . marry me . [ scene_break ] ridge : of course i feel an obligation to you and our children . i made a commitment . taylor : based on a lie . but now that you know the truth , maybe that 's not the decision you would 've made . maybe you would 've chosen brooke instead . maybe you 'd still be there with her right now if you did n't know the children and i were here waiting for you . ridge : come on , taylor , do n't put words in my mouth . taylor : ridge , i just wish you had told her that you loved me more than you loved her . because that 's what this comes down to . ridge : taylor , you 're a psychiatrist . you know you ca n't quantify love . taylor : you 're not talking to taylor the doctor . you 're talking to taylor the woman , okay ? the one , who when i found out you had married brooke , said to herself to just be patient . you would remember how much you loved me , and that you knew how much you wanted to be with me . but when that did n't happen , i mean , major alarm bells should have gone off -- for all of us . i really do n't know how you can expect me to start a life with you when you still have all of these unresolved feelings for brooke . and they may never go away . ridge : doc , look -- taylor : no , no . you know what , ridge ? i really -- i do n't want you to take me in your arms and tell me everything is going to be okay . you 're obviously still very conflicted about brooke . and that -- that hurts enough as it is . and i am not going to let it hurt the children . they ca n't keep going back and forth wondering . that 's why i 'm asking you to leave . ridge : leave ? taylor : for as long as it takes , until you can figure things out . ridge : you want me to move out ? taylor : you just need to take a little time away . you need to get your head clear , away from everything and everyone . however long it takes for you to get clarity . ridge : what about the kids ? taylor : i 'll help them understand . but ridge , you ca n't keep having one foot in and one foot out of this marriage . you need to figure out what 's in your heart . if it 's brooke you truly love or if it 's me . because until you do , we ca n't have a life together . at least not the one that i want .
taylor is upset with ridge because he did n't tell brooke he made a life with taylor . taylor asks ridge to move out until he can fully commit to her . she feels he has `` one foot in and one foot out `` in their marriage . ridge is shocked .
donna : good morning . nick : morning . croissant ? donna : a girl 's got to watch her figure . brooke : a girl 's got to get some sleep , too . ridge must 've really liked what he was getting to keep you out so late . donna : well , i still ca n't believe you 're giving me this chance . bridget : i was kind of surprised by it , too , actually . brooke : are those the proofs from last night ? donna : yeah , i do n't know if they 're any good . brooke : donna , you 're just starting out . give yourself a break . you 're not going to be perfect overnight . bridget : i 'm sure they 're much better than you think . let me see . wow . well , you 're , um -- oh , my god , you certainly not shy . donna : well , ridge made me feel like i could do anything . nick : that 's what he does best . bridget : you should -- you should take a look at these . brooke : you took these last night ? there 's not even time to touch them up . donna : are they really bad ? brooke : no , no , this is a good start . donna : well , ridge wants to keep going . he has a full photo shoot with brio this morning . brooke : what ? donna : he did n't tell you ? nick : tell you what ? should n't he be asking ? i 'm confused here . are you ceo , or is he ?

[ scene_break ] donna : i ca n't believe ridge did n't talk to you about this morning 's photo shoot . maybe we should just cancel it . i do n't want to cause problems . brooke : no , no . it was just a little communications mix - up . that 's all . i 'll talk to ridge . nick : brooke , just give him this one . the dressmaker thinks he 's got a gold mine in donna , so -- bridget : mom , it 's really your decision . brooke : well , it is too late to cancel . so let 's see what donna can do . donna : thank you , thank you , thank you . you wo n't be sorry .

[ scene_break ] donna : i was really bad , huh ? brooke did n't look happy . ridge : i do n't know what she was trying harder to protect -- her lingerie line or her little sister . i think she just got caught off guard . donna : well , maybe we should just try it her way . ridge : i 'm gon na let you in on a little secret . your energy , your spirit -- your goodness -- your mischief -- everything that defines donna logan , that 's what 's going to blow the socks off this campaign . donna : are you sure ? ridge : hey , i 've been in the rag business a lot of years . i 've worked with a lot of models . i 've worked with the best of the best . i know when something has potential . and you , donna logan , you have mega - potential . i believe in this concept . what you need to do is just believe in me , be yourself -- and i think if you do that , there 's no way we can fail . i have some paperwork to get done . i 'll see you later . donna : okay . brooke : what the hell was that ? donna : what ? brooke : oh , my god ! do n't act all innocent with me ! i saw you kissing ridge . do n't ever kiss him again . do you understand me ? ever !
donna declines breakfast of croissants ; girl 's got to watch her figure . brooke snarks that she needs her sleep too . ridge seems to have kept her real busy last night . donna shares some photos from last night 's shoot . bridget and all think wow . but , nick wonders if ridge is calling all the shots , is brooke ceo or is he ? brooke gives in this once ; it 's too late to cancel anything now . but , she goes back on her word and feels she needs to drop by forrester 's today and see that things are going smoothly . taylor revisits thorne lamenting to herself the fact that she should have told him all last night . he reveals to her that he knows she has been keeping a secret from him . the fact that she had been drinking the night of darla 's accident . he drives her yet taylor does n't feel this is her problem and does n't initially want to participate at a.a . they listen to others tell their story and taylor remembers the awful night . she stands and gives a gut - wrenching account of her life . how it has spiraled out of control . she does n't recognize herself anymore , with the drinking .. sleeping with men she does n't even know . she blames herself for not being there first at the accident , her being the one to live and not darla . she cries she wants to do something , the right thing for darla as she ca n't live with this pain anymore .

( scoffs ) it does n't matter , okay ? i know how bill feels about me . you know , we -- we have something , and he does n't have that with katie . he really thought he could count on her , and he was wrong , and i really thought i could count on my dad and my grandma and , yeah , i was wrong . but , you know , that night , i was hurt ... ( sighs ) and he called me . he just knew . we 're -- in a weird way , we 're so much like . and now we 've found ach other , and we 're never , ever gon na that let go . you know , by the end of today , his marriage with katie will be over , and he 's gon na start his life with me .

( laughs ) liam : i -- no , i - i 'm saying you should be prepared for anything . i mean , katie just renewed her marriage vows . this is coming straight out of the blue for her . i do n't even want to think about how she 's gon na react , but if i were you , i 'd be prepared for brooke and donna on your doorstep . steffy : yeah i 've been dealing with the logans for a while now , so i 'm not scared of them . liam : ( sighs ) steffy : katie 's gon na be upset . her sisters are gon na be upset . but eventually , we will get over it , and we 'll all move on with our lives . [ scene_break ] brooke : ( sighs ) how can this be happening to her ? donna : i keep thinking about the other night , the look on her face , her standing there with bill , pledging her love . and now she 's in there fighting for her life . ( sighs ) brooke : we have to stay positive . bill is in there with her , and if anybody can pull her through , he will . donna : okay . ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] bill : you 're in the hospital , katie . are you in any pain right now ? katie : ( sighs ) bill : you had a heart attack , but you are in amazing hands . there 's a world- renowned cardiologist lookin ' after you . we 're gon na get you through this . you 're gon na be okay , because you 're a fighter . you 're my fighter . you 're tough . there is no quit in you . do n't doubt what you mean to me . my life is so much better because you 're in it , and i will not let anything happen to you . i will not rest until you are fully recovered . until you 're smiling that beautiful smile , katie . ( sniffles ) you can count on me . i will not leave your side . believe that . there is nothing more important to me than your believing that . katie : ( sighs ) ( weakly ) you and steffy ... are you leaving me , bill ? have i lost you ?
bill bends down over katie who has collapsed on the floor of his office . he calls the paramedics . he goes back to katie and begs her to hang on . the paramedics arrive and find out she was a heart transplant two years ago . bill is frantic at the hospital when they wo n't let him follow katie into the er . steffy tells liam not to get all moody on him . she and bill are very happy . he is on his way now to tell katie that he is leaving her . she tells liam that she can make bill happy and he deserves a good life . liam says he wants nothing more than that either , but he does n't think it is with her . steffy says he is the kind of man she wants to be with the rest of her life .. he was there for her when her dad walked out , when her grandmother betrayed her . this is n't some dirty , quick affair ; they are in love . she compares their coupling with him and hope . liam says it is okay that hope wants to wait for them to be together . and katie loves bill so this new reveal is gon na kill her . over lunch , donna fills brooke in on the katie / bill renewal vows the night before . she is sure their sister is in good hands . they both agree that stormy 's heart is serving her well . amidst this good feeling , bill calls and tells brooke that they need to get to the hospital pronto ; katie has collapsed .
liam : you and me like this right here -- that 's all that matters . hope : ( sniffles ) liam : okay ? you forget about that videotape . forget about steffy and marriage certificates . none of it makes a difference . i love you . and we can work through this . [ scene_break ] taylor : what do you mean , she gave you her ring . steffy : hope had it out , and she told me that i could take it . she said that i could have liam . taylor : what did you do ? steffy : i told her that she was foolish . yeah , okay , part of me wants to have that life back . part of me wants my husband back . but i 'm not gon na take advantage of her mood swings . i 'm not gon na jump in every time she freaks out . that 's not how i want it to happen .

( chuckles ) caroline : ( chuckles ) man : ( clears throat ) i 'll check it out . be right back . thomas : ( sighs ) caroline : strange , huh ? thomas : yeah , it 's strange . i get the same damage hitting a pothole that marcus does hitting a person . [ scene_break ] marcus : well , the best part of getting this over with tonight is i can get home before my mom hears about it . justin : exactly why i have n't told her yet . eric : there 's no reason to tell donna and get her all upset while she 's on this trip with her father . stephanie : what are you talking about ? you 're gon na have to tell her eventually . posting bail just gets you out of here . you 're gon na probably stand trial . justin : yeah , but they can drop it . marcus has a lot of things in his favor . it 's not exactly worth the prosecutor 's time . eric : yeah , but it 's obvious that marcus had no intent to harm anthony . marcus : yeah , but , dad , if they 're trying to make a point , then -- justin : no , not -- not with a case like this . you called the ambulance . you went to the hospital . you accepted responsibility . marcus : well , yeah -- hell , yeah , and i plan on never texting and driving again . justin : i believe you , son . the judge will , too . [ scene_break ] caroline : careful . you 're on camera . security feed . thomas : ( sighs ) yeah . uh , a lot of robberies in this area last year . most of the stores in this area have one now . every dayzee decided to ... caroline : what ? thomas : that pothole we hit was outside the coffee shop , right where marcus hit anthony . maybe dayzee 's camera caught it on tape . [ scene_break ] taylor : well , i 've got ta say i - i 'm very proud of you , knowing how much you love liam . steffy : it was n't that long ago where i would have grabbed that ring and ran . but you know what ? taking advantage and -- and plotting , it 's just not who i am anymore . brooke : i talked to hope . i know she was here , offering to walk away from liam . steffy : so you came to thank me , brooke ? hope had her ring off . she was trying to give it to me . i told her to go home to her husband . [ scene_break ] hope : ( sighs ) liam , i want to believe that what happened does n't matter . i love you . but i 've got this decision now , because we still have to file these papers . i mean , i ... i know that we 've said the words , but that does n't technically make it legal , and -- and now , i 'm just thinking ... do i really want to commit my life to someone who would kiss another woman on our wedding day ? liam : hope , do n't make it sound like i did n't -- hope : no , liam . liam , i realize that things got really confusing for you when deacon showed up and left that letter , but that -- that does not make it okay . all the explanations , all the reasons that you 're giving me does not change how i feel about what you and steffy did on that bed while i was rushing off to pledge my life to you . and you just expect me to get over it ? [ scene_break ] dayzee : hi . ( chuckles ) stephanie : quite a way to begin a married life . dayzee : oh , my gosh . unbelievable , right ? ( sighs ) it could have been worse , though -- much worse . stephanie : that 's true . at least anthony 's gon na be all right dayzee : yeah . reconstructive surgery -- he 'll be better after it 's over . stephanie : i hope so . dayzee : yeah . stephanie : i do n't suppose he wants to hear much of that now , though . dayzee : no . stephanie : no . dayzee : he 's still really bitter , which , i mean , i do n't blame him . stephanie : ( sighs ) dayzee : obviously , he 's upset . but once he understands that marcus never meant to hurt him -- he means what he said about not ever texting and driving again . it was a tough lesson to learn , but ... he 's learned it . stephanie : well , i certainly hope so , but you know what they say -- actions speak louder than words . dayzee : that 's right . ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] thomas : leilani ? hey . leilani : hi . oh , hi , thomas . how 's it going ? thomas : good . leilani : can i get you two some coffee ? thomas : sure . leilani : okay . thomas : uh , hey , can i ask you a question ? do you know anything about the security cameras around here ? leilani : not really . uh , check with tony . he helped dayzee set it all up . thomas : great . thank you . leilani : you 're welcome . thomas : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] steffy : yes , that will be fine . okay , see you then bye . taylor : are you done yet ? are you gon na stop berating my daughter ? brooke : i just want to warn her . steffy : about what ? brooke : hope went home to liam . taylor : ( sighs ) steffy : okay . is -- why is that a warning ? i told her to . brooke : please , just stay away . taylor : you know , i do n't know why you 're saying this to her . steffy has done everything to back away from this . it 's hope who 's the one who came by to give her husband away . brooke : they need some time alone to work this out without anybody intruding or manipulating . steffy : ( sighs ) i do n't know how to make you understand . oh , my god . brooke : just stay away from hope and liam . do not interfere . [ scene_break ] liam : i do n't just expect you to get over it . it 'll take time . but we can get these images out of your head if we work together , if we 're committed . hope : well ... ( sighs ) that 's ... that 's what 's scary -- wondering about your commitment . ( sighs ) liam : my -- are you kidding me ? hope : no , i 'm not . i heard something from steffy today . liam : okay . hope : she told me ... ( sighs ) that when i left the hotel room and she crawled out of her hiding place , she told you to marry me . you claim that you meant every word of your vows , but you never would have said them if it were n't for steffy . [ scene_break ] marcus : so you really think this might not go to trial ? justin : let 's just get you out on bail . we 'll worry about the trial later . dayzee : but it could be six months if he 's found guilty . justin : yeah , it could be , or just 30 days . eric : but they could drop it . marcus : i 'm guilty , okay ? i was n't paying attention , and i slammed into the man . now yes , i did the right thing , okay ? but that does n't change anything . they wo n't drop it . now i just think that we should all just accept the fact that i might be leaving you and rosey for a while . stephanie : well , there 's a very good likelihood that could happen , but i do n't think the two of you should dwell on it , because there 's nothing you can do about it . let 's just wait and see if you do go to trial . until then , i think you should just go home , spend as much time as you can with each other and the baby and work on your marriage , because that 's what 's gon na get you through it . [ scene_break ] tony : here we go . thomas : great . caroline : how far back does the footage go ? we need the night of dayzee 's bridal shower . tony : mm , not sure . not sure . thomas : but the camera points towards the street , right ? tony : oh , it sure does . thomas : good . let 's see what we can find . ( keyboard keys clicking ) [ scene_break ] taylor : what difference does it make , uh , whether -- whether steffy is around liam ? steffy : mom , do n't even worry about it . taylor : no , this is ridiculous , honey . brooke : ( sighs ) taylor : brooke ca n't tell you who to stay away from and how to live your life . steffy loves liam . she is always gon na be there for him , not that the same can be said about hope . brooke : i am just asking steffy to give hope and liam a little space to work this out . i do n't think that 's being unreasonable . steffy : okay , brooke , she needs to realize that she ca n't just give up and walk out every time something bad happens . if she keeps acting like little miss `` everything has to be perfect , `` she 's going to lose him . i told her to go back home and to move on . for her sake , i hope that 's what she 's doing . [ scene_break ] hope : was she telling the truth ? liam : yeah . hope : and if she had said the opposite , if she had said , `` forget about hope , go away with me , `` what would you have done ? liam : ( scoffs ) hope , i love you both . that 's no secret at this point . but i married you for a reason , and it was n't because steffy gave me permission . hope : we 're not married yet . liam : do n't -- do n't do that . do n't pretend like our vows did n't matter . yeah , we have n't signed the papers yet . so what ? we 're married . yes , yes , i kissed steffy . in a terrible and confusing situation , i turned to one of my closest friends , and she gave me her blessings to follow through on what she knew i wanted more than anything -- marrying you . all it took was one look in your eyes -- no more confusion . i did n't even have to think twice about what had happened before . all that pain was a distant memory . ( flashback ) liam : hope , take this ring as a token of my love and fidelity . hope : liam , take this ring as a token of my love and fidelity . ( present time ) liam : and the same can be true for you , if we work on this together . but you have to think about everything that we 've been through to get to this point . this is just one more obstacle , one last obstacle to overcome . and we can do it . we can make this marriage happen . but you have to tell me that 's what you want . [ scene_break ] justin : i 'm gon na check with the clerk , see how much longer it 'll be . marcus : is rosey too young for roller coasters ? dayzee : ( chuckles ) yes , she 's too young for roller coasters . marcus : okay , well , we 're gon na go anyway . no , i 'm serious . i want to take her to as many places as i possibly can while i 'm out . dayzee : ( scoffs ) marcus : no , i - i 'll take pictures . we 're gon na take on -- on -- on go - kart rides and things ... dayzee : mmm hmm . marcus : because i want her to know how much f she 's gon na have when her daddy comes home . dayzee : ( scoffs ) she does n't need roller coasters -- just you . so , you know , we 'll take pictures -- pictures of you holding her and loving her . but you wo n't need them . come here . marcus : huh ? dayzee : because we are gon na go to the prosecution . we 'll go to the police . we 'll go to anyone we have to every day , i have to , to make them understand . i will not lose you from my life . [ scene_break ] caroline : well , this is the right night . thomas : yeah , a pretty clear view of the street . caroline : do you think that we 'll see what happened to anthony ? thomas : ( sighs ) i hope so . it might answer a few questions . [ scene_break ] hope : ( sighs ) god , we fought so long to get to this point . liam : yeah , and we 'll keep fighting until we make it work . hope : liam , i ca n't accept promises made to me because steffy told you to . liam : i just said that 's not why -- hope : no , liam , i think it seems really straightforward to you . you made vows , you honor them . but it 's not that simple . liam : it is that simple . hope : no , it 's not . i need some time . liam : okay . hope : away . liam : what ? ( sighs ) come on . hope : i just -- um ... i 'm sorry . i just -- i ca n't stay here right now . i 'm gon na go stay at my mom 's . liam : no , no , no , no , no , no . do n't do this . hope : liam , i just -- i do n't want to deal with this anymore . liam : h - how are we supposed to get past it if we 're not even around each other not even talking to each other ? hope : i do n't know . i 'm not sure , liam , but for right now , this is what i want . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , okay ? liam : wait a second wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . hope , hey , hey . you do n't need to do this . you do n't . hope : until i can wrap my head around this ... it 's just the way it has to be . i 'm sorry . ( sighs ) ( sniffles ) ( sobs ) [ scene_break ] taylor : you know , i try to stay out of how you raise your kids , but i have to tell you , the more you push hope to liam -- brooke : i believe in them , taylor . taylor : yes , but at a certain point ... brooke : what ? taylor : are you ever going to let hope think for herself ? brooke : ( sighs ) taylor : you know , that video must have really upset her . why should she have to be with a man who -- who 's in love with another woman ? she is n't blind , and she does n't want to be second to steffy . do your daughter a favor , and if she has given up on trying to make things work with liam , let her live with it . brooke : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] ( knock on door ) steffy : you disappointed ? liam : no . no . hope just left , so ... steffy : yeah , no , i - i just actually drove by her . is she coming back soon ? 'cause i can -- i can leave . that 's not a problem . liam : no , i - i mean , she 's walking out on me . steffy : what ? what ? i ca n't believe she 's doing this again . liam : yeah . yeah . steffy : you know , maybe ... maybe it 's for the best . i supported your marriage before . i took a step back and -- and let you have a chance with your relationship . but then she walks out on you again because of this simple misunderstanding ? it 's time to let her go , liam .
liam hugs hope and tells her to forget about the video tape , forget steffy and what happened in italy . none of that matters . he loves her and wants to stay married . she replies that she loves him too , and she wishes she could say none of the other stuff mattered , but ...... now she has these papers that must be filed . she knows liam was confused when deacon showed up and left that letter , but that does not make it okay . it ultimately comes down to they are not officially married and she is not sure she wants a lifelong commitment to someone who would jump in bed or kiss another woman on their wedding day . all the reasons and explanations he is giving her does not change anything . yet now he expects her to get over it . steffy explains to her mother that hope offered liam back to her and she told hope that was foolish . yes , she 'd like to have her husband back , but she 's not going to jump in every time they have a mood swing . not so long ago , yes she would have taken that ring and run , but that is just not where she is anymore . justin stops in and tells marcus and dayzee that it 's all set ; the judge will be calling marcus into chambers as soon as he reviews the file . marcus hopes he can be home and all this cleared up before his mother hears about it .

wyatt tells liam to back off . liam tells flo that she stood around while his family fell apart so she better chime in now and tell the truth . flo admits that phoebe is beth . she never had a child . dumbfounded wyatt wants the details of why she is saying this . it ca n't be that beth and phoebe are twins and flo says no , phoebe is beth . thomas continues his quest and tells hope he wanted to touch her hair and her face but she always had another guy until now . he tries to kiss her until she finally pushes him away . he asks what is wrong and she says he is not being patient . he thought she was in the mood but she says then he is not seeing her at all . douglas tells steffy that he loves her and she suggests they can call his father and shows him how to touch his picture on her phone and get him . there is a knock at the door so she leaves for a second to answer that . douglas looks at phoebe and says he knows her name is beth . thomas 's phone rings and he tells hope not to get it . she says it is steffy and it could be because of douglas . he takes it and asks steffy what is it . but it is douglas and in the quick convo he says he is fine with steffy . she and liam are nice unlike thomas who is mean . he tells his dad that he told liam that phoebe is really beth . thomas hangs up ; he knows he has to have another plan . hope wants to know if douglas is okay . thomas assures her he is fine but he realizes now he has been going at this all wrong . they need to get out of here . he asks her to go change which she is glad to get out of the lingerie but wants to know where they are going . he says he is her husband , he loves her so just trust him with this surprise . steffy lets ridge in and explains that douglas it not himself . he is saying phoebe is beth . thomas calls and she repeats to him what douglas said about beth . thomas says he needs to go in time out . she says she will not punish him for something he knows nothing about . hope comes out of the bathroom and thomas is blown away by her beauty . later at forrester she asks him why they are here . he does not understand why she questions everything he does . he loves her and there is nothing he would not do for her . wyatt can not believe all he is hearing and asks liam and flo to stop . liam says the truth is like this sometimes . beth is actually alive . but he wants to know how as he held that dead baby in his arms . she says she had a friend that needed a favor . he wanted her to pose as the birth mother . it was so hush hush that she was not given the whole story . she just assumed it was some celebrity that did not want the public to know and he was bending the rules a little bit to give this child a good life . liam adds he assumes this friend was the go - between with her and taylor and then steffy . she admits yes and by time she realized it was a fraud she was already an accomplice . liam thinks for a minute and asks then how did her friend get beth . flo says he delivered her . but he did say it was not premeditated . it only happened because hope was unconscious . there was no one else in the room but one other person who also gave birth that night . that baby girl was stillborn . wyatt jumps in and says then dr. buckingham put that dead baby in hope 's arms knowingly . flo nods yes . liam wants to know why . flo says he owed a lot of money for gambling debts to the wrong kind of people and they were threatening his daughter . liam is livid that buckingham would sell his daughter to pay for a gambling debt . flo says yes and taylor had told him in passing that she would pay a lot of money for a baby for steffy to adopt . so when all of this happened in catalina it seemed like the perfect opportunity so he made the switch . liam says and flo knew about it all this time . she cringes that she wanted to tell him many times but she was being threatened . he wants to know who else knew . she spills that zoe and xander and her mom knew . also thomas and emma . emma was going to go to hope that night of her accident and tell about thomas . and thomas told flo that the same thing that happened to emma would happen to her .

brooke tells donna that she saw the kiss and it better be the last one , no more ridge . donna defends by announcing it was strictly innocent ; ridge was helping her with her confidence and she was showing her gratitude . donna states that brooke ca n't love nick the way she does ridge , and he is for the taking ; just take her old job back . she understands how she could be attracted to nick but captain control wants to control every thing she does and brooke will not stand for that . and , if she is so in love with nick , why does this kiss bother her so much ? because , brooke has always wanted ridge since the first day she spoke his name ; he 's the man for her , and still is .
