[mellow music plays] I’m so happy you’re home. [Finn exhales] Yeah, I know, it’s just been, uh, too many double shifts lately. [forced laugh]
Steffy: Well, I really missed you. I missed you too. Well, I just– I just realized I finally get to hear. Hear? Whatever it is you wanted to tell me the other day but you didn’t want it to get in the way of our celebration. Some big news? Yeah. Um… there’s some-some news, and it’s, um… life-changing. Oh, please tell me there’s an update. On the AC? Unfortunately, no. And this kind of thing doesn’t usually happen, but with my house manager gone– That’s fine. I’ll take no AC in a mansion any day over where I was before. This is so much more comfortable than being in a prison. It’s where my mom and everyone else still thinks I am.
Finn: We can “what if” this to death trying to guess what Steffy’s gonna do, but the only way that I’ll know for sure is if I go home and tell her what’s going on. That Luna’s my daughter. Oh. I was told a patient was waiting for me. Didn’t expect my sister. Something wrong? What is it, Penelope? What’s going on? Oh, well, well, well. What are you doing here? Hopefully getting my old job back? [inhales] We know what you did. It was a momentary lapse in judgement. And, thankfully, I’ve been released after time served. Uh, a deepfake, Remy? AI-generated nudes? That’s…that’s some pretty sick stuff. I thought that Electra Forrester was supposed to be your friend. You really gonna let me have it too? No. Because I’m really in no place to judge. What are you saying? You’re no saint either? Let’s just say I’ve had my moments. But look, see? I am reformed. Does that mean you’ll give me another chance? I would. But Deacon… I don’t think so. You don’t think Deacon would give me another chance? [small laugh] Remy… you know who Electra’s boyfriend is, right? Will Spencer. Hope’s cousin. Hope, as in Deacon’s daughter. No, sweetheart, you’re outta luck. Sheila, I really don’t wanna go back to Texas. I-I need to find something to keep me in LA.
Oh, great.
What? Well, happy hour is over.
Huh?
That’s Will’s dad. He kills the moment. He always kills the moment. Are you sick, Penelope? Is that why you’re here? No. Not physically. What does that mean? You know what? It’s-it’s nothing. Just-just ignore–ignore me. Um, I’m just not, um, I’m just not in a good place. I think I know why. Because of Luna.
Steffy: Life-changing? Whatever it is, it’s obviously weighing on you. Something to do with a patient? Uh, no. It’s-it’s personal. About my past. About a-a woman from my past. [edgy music plays] I have a takeout order. Today would be great. Wow. More angry than usual. Well, if you must know, the AC is out and… in this heat wave, that really irritates me. You’ve got money, so why don’t you get it fixed? As a matter of fact, I have made a ton of calls. Everyone is booked for weeks. Have you replaced the filters?
Bill: I don’t replace filters, all right? I have somebody who does that. I’m a busy man. But my house manager… isn’t available at the moment. Well, I-I’d be happy to help. What, you’re an AC guy? Well, I’m from Texas. It’s hot there. We’re all AC guys. I got you. You should hire him, Bill. I mean, he did great work here. Very handy. I’m sure you’d be in great hands with…Dario. Well, uh, normally, Shiela vouching for you would automatically get you crossed off the list. But I am desperate. Uh, I assure you I can do the job. I have to handle something. I’ll think about it. Why did you do that?
And who’s Dario?
You are. “Remy”? I’m sure that that’s on Bill’s radar as some sort of a-a freak. I’m sure Will’s told him everything. [whispering] That is Bill Spencer over there. He’s one of the wealthiest men in Los Angeles. That could be the opportunity that you’re looking for. Dario. [heavy music plays] Hope you know I’m glad you’re here. Makes me feel hopeful thinking you’d come to me when you aren’t in a good place. I want to be the one you confide in, Penelope, that you can trust me again. I know I don’t deserve it, not after being so hateful, but… feels like we’re on the right path again. Yeah. Yeah, it does. I can see how worked up you are. Struggling with everything that’s happening with Luna. It’s…it’s a lot to handle. If I had been a better sister to you, more supportive, and to Luna… your daughter might not be in prison right now. Lives wouldn’t have been lost. And Finn wouldn’t despise his cousin.
Steffy: A woman from your past. I never brought this up before because it… it wasn’t an issue. But it is now? Yeah, look, I– I put this out of my mind long before I met you. Just pretended that, you know, it didn’t happen and i-it didn’t matter. It was just-it was just easier not to acknowledge it, and that…that worked for me. For many years. But not anymore, um, because, yeah, it’s, uh… It’s an issue that I have to deal with, um, now. We both do. Many years. So… Whatever it is, it-it was a while ago. So whoever you’re talking about, it’s not someone I know, right? No, yeah, y-you actually do. She’s, um… even been to our house. She has? Wait, this woman is still in your life? Yeah. I mean, no, obviously like not-not in that way. Okay, just to be clear, since you haven’t really mentioned it, we’re talking about someone that you obviously slept with, right? When I was young.
How old?
18. So someone from college? She wasn’t in school. She was, uh, older. And I know her? Yeah. Okay. Well, who is it? Um, it’s… Poppy. Your aunt? Yeah. [intense music plays] All right, well, get to the point. You’re trying to set me up with Bill Spencer? Bill Spencer the billionaire. Why are you helping me? I like you. I don’t know, maybe I see a little bit of myself in those eyes– the mischievous side.
I’m flattered.
Don’t be. At least, that’s what people would say, people that think that they know me. What, are you a mass murderer or something? Right. You really think it’s the filters, Darren?
Uh–
Uh, sorry. Dario. Uh, possibly? It might be the coils or–
Whatever it is, can you fix it?
Uh, definitely.
Won’t let you down.
Can you come out today? Uh, lemme see. As in right now. Uh, sure, yeah.
I–
Great. Let’s go.
Go! Go, go, go.
Okay. It’s hard to know how different things would have been. It’s not worth dwelling on it, Li. I didn’t have any right being suspicious of you having an affair under my roof. You would never do such a thing. You’re a committed, loyal sister, and I’m appalled with myself for thinking you could ever betray me in such an ugly, dirty manner. I wasted so many years holding onto resentment and anger. [exhales] Will you ever be able to forgive me?
Steffy: Poppy? Your aunt? Oh, Finn.
My God, your aunt?
Look. It wasn’t like I, you know, like felt– She had to have known what she was doing. Well, I was 18, so I mean, I knew– 18, Finn? 18 is still really young. I thought I was a man. I mean, I acted like one, so… I’m so sorry you had to go through something like that. I really am. And you hid it for so many years. You kept it bottled up inside. I-I get she wasn’t your biological aunt, but my God… you were still adopted into their family. What she did to you is so unforgiveable. I am so sorry. I’m so sorry you ever had to go through something like that. Oh, my God. [dramatic music plays] [sighs] I guess I could go lounge by the pool for the tenth time today. Hang on a second. I have to check on something.
Make yourself scarce.
Why? Who’s here?
A guy to fix the AC.
Oh! Awesome. Go, go, go, go, go. Come on in. Oh, wow. You weren’t kidding about how warm it is.
Better get to work.
Yeah, hopefully
it’s just the filters.
Yeah, I’ll start there. But your freon might need to be recharged. It could be like a clogged evaporator or a condenser.
I’ll figure it out.
All right. That’s all very exciting. Here you go. Uh… this is like $500. I haven’t even fixed anything yet. I trust you will. And I’m also buying your discretion. Discretion? Look, just, uh, do the job, and beat it, okay? Don’t go ADD on me. Do not get distracted. Do not make yourself at home in any way. Just do the job and leave by the service gate. Okay. But what if I need to talk to you about it
or show you something–
Yeah, don’t do that, ’cause I don’t wanna talk about it and I don’t wanna see anything. I’m gonna be on business calls all afternoon. I don’t wanna get into freon issues. Gotcha. Don’t let me down…Dario. I won’t. Couldn’t help but overhear. Oh. Hi. Are you here to fix the AC? Uh, that is the plan, yeah. Thank God. It’s been unbearable around here.
Pretty warm, yeah.
And boring.
Huh?
Oh, nothing. I’m just, um… in between projects right now. Do I know you? No. I don’t think so. I have a friend, uh, who works at a fashion house in LA– Forrester Creations. I-I spent some time reading up on the place and different news stories and… the biggest one of all recently was a… intern commits double homicide? Is that you? I’m here for you. Whatever you want, okay? Whatever you need. You’re not upset? Upset? No! I feel for you. I-I hurt for you. I’m angry with Poppy for taking advantage of you.
Well, I was 18, so I knew too.
No. You don’t have to make excuses for her. Look, if you don’t wanna explain the situation, you really–you really don’t have to. I kinda have an idea how it went down. You were young. You had an innocent crush. And Poppy, she was… she was doing a lot of drugs back then, and I’m sure she took one look at you and… What she did to you, that’s just sick. It’s awful. What, her sister adopts you, and then she… [whispering] Oh, my God. [sniffling] It’s like no wonder Luna turned out the way she did. I mean…Luna is her daughter. She tried to kill me. She poisoned me. She killed two men. It’s like that sickness is in her veins.
Um…
Oh, hey.
No–
It’s-it’s-it’s okay, okay? As much as it hurts, there’s no lasting repercussions, okay? We’re gonna get through this, Finn. We will. What Poppy did to you in the past doesn’t matter. It’s not gonna change anything about us, okay? Um…
Hey, what is it?
No–
What’s-what’s-what’s going on?
[deep sigh] There’s more to the story.
I’m sure there is.
No. No. Just listen, okay? There’s something that… I have to tell you… and it’s something that you’re not gonna wanna hear. [intense music plays]
WOMAN: Here’s a look ahead.
You’ve built these gates… but I see beyond them. You will never know Finn as intimately as I do. Oh! [doorbell rings] [gasps] Cousin Finn.
