Steffy: God! Ah. I got to hold it together, I got to hold it together for the kids, I don’t want my– my parents to worry, but I’m not okay, I mean, how–how can I be okay? My husband is dead. Some monster shot us, stole our future, like I– liam, I hate this. I hate this.
Liam: Hey, steffy, look at me for a second? I know that you feel like you have to be strong for everybody else, all the time, and it’s not true. Right now, it’s our turn to be strong for you, and we are going to get through this, we’re going to get through this together. I’m going to be there for you and the kids. Okay?
Steffy: Thank you.
Liam: Yeah, okay.
Steffy: Thank you.
Brooke: Honey, don’t listen to thomas. He’s trying to make you question liam and the strength of your marriage.
Hope: I won’t do that.
Brooke: Good.
Hope: But I can still not like that he spent the night at steffy’S.
Quinn: It’s not easy, rebuilding trust in a marriage once you’ve lost it.
Carter: And you and eric made a commitment to do that?
Quinn: Yeah, we’re trying, but I don’t know, it’s taking time. I– I love eric, and I’m, I’m so happy to be married to him, I just wish he was around more often, you know?
Carter: Mm.
Quinn: I’m glad he’s enjoying pickleball at the club, at least he’s being more active.
[ Eric sighing ]
Donna: Why do you always look at me like that?
Eric: I can stop.
Donna: No. Never.
Eric: It’s a good thing, because I don’t think I ever could. Not the way you make me feel.
Donna: Don’t you dare say I make you feel younger.
Eric: You make me feel lighter, that’s for sure.
Donna: Same.
Eric: Even though I’m a married man?
Quinn: I’m not feeling neglected.
Carter: I know.
Quinn: Just– I get that eric is busy, okay? He loves his work, he loves pickleball, clearly. I mean, it energizes him, so I’m not complaining, I just– I miss spending time with him, you know? I miss his arms around me. I used to be the thing that excited him the most and now, now I’m not so sure.
Donna: Eric, I– I didn’t think I’d ever see you like this ever again, I mean all those years sitting behind a desk, wanting to tell you how I felt, knowing I could make you happy like this.
Eric: I’m so happy. You make me so happy, happier than I think I have a right to be.
Donna: Eric, everybody has a right to feel joy, I mean that’s what life is all about, just– finding something to look forward to, something or– someone to excite us, that’s what you’ve always been for me. Now, I can finally be that for you too.
Hope: Don’t get me wrong, I understand why liam felt he had to spend the night, kelly is vulnerable right now, and she was scared, she needed her daddy, liam, I mean– he can’t say no to that.
Brooke: Apparently he can’t say no to steffy either.
Hope: Mom, what steffy and her family are going through right now, I mean, it’s tragic, and liam is, I’m sure it’s comforting to have him there, especially for kelly.
Brooke: Yes, yeah, I mean it’s sweet and it’s nice, to a point, but beth needs him too.
Liam: I’m not going to lie, it’s going to be tough, but– then again, so are you.
Steffy: Yeah, real tough.
Liam: Hey, steffy, can I tell you a secret? Being tough, being strong, it’s not the same as being a robot. Cry, grieve, th– that is exactly what you are supposed to be doing right now, and you don’t need to hide it from anyone, especially not me, I mean, look at me, I cry all the time.
Ridge: Hey guys, sorry.
Steffy: It’s fine, you guys don’t have to apologize.
Taylor: I snuck out with your dad and went to get you some breakfast.
Liam: Ah, that’s nice, I–i actually about to take off, so.
Ridge: Oh.
Taylor: Thanks for staying the night, liam.
Liam: Yeah.
Steffy: It meant a lot to kelly to have her daddy here.
Taylor: Yeah, kelly’s going to need her dad like she’s never needed him before. I sense that steffy feels the same way. Want your clothes to smell freshly
Quinn: I like that we can still talk and be open with each other.
Carter: Me too.
Quinn: Our relationship has changed but our friendship hasn’T.
Carter: Because what we had was more than just physical.
Quinn: Yeah, it was. It was more than that, I mean I– I turned to you because, because I wanted to be understood, and appreciated. You know, I never had to play a part with you, I could always just be myself.
Carter: That’s good.
Quinn: You showed me what I deserve, you know, and what I have to offer.
Carter: Eric knew it too, he just– he didn’t express it.
Quinn: That’s always going to amaze me, you know? The most eloquent man I have ever met in my entire life couldn’t express his feelings to me. It’s one of the things I– I love most about eric is, the beautiful things that he says to me.
Carter: You’re lucky to have each other. I’m really glad that you were able to find that again.
Donna: Hey, where’d you go?
Eric: I’m here.
Donna: I know you. No, I know this look.
Eric: Oh you do, do you?
Donna: Mm hm.
Eric: Look, if– if, if quinn knew what was going on with us she’d be devastated, and I– look, I care about her.
Donna: You just have the biggest, most generous heart, and you just– you want to share it with everyone, don’t you? I can’t be jealous of that, as long as you are sharing this part with me, okay?
Eric: Okay.
[ Laughter ]
Liam: Hi, hey guys, hi brooke.
Hope: Hi.
Liam: Hi, is everything okay?
Brooke: Now that you’re home.
Hope: How, um, how’s steffy?
Liam: Um, I mean, you know, physically she’s improving, it’s just, you know, with– with finn gone, and her worrying about the kids, it’s all sort of just weighing on her, still and–
Brooke: Well she has a huge support system helping her, her family, now that she’s home from the hospital, you can put your focus elsewhere. Back here, home, with hope and beth, and douglas, they need you too, liam. I brought in ensure max protein,
Quinn: Eric and I have been completely in sync for so long, I thought it would last forever.
Carter: You’re trying to get back to that.
Quinn: Yeah, we are, but it– it’s taking effort and– and that’s not something that I’m used to. Eric and I, we’ve never had to work at our relationship. It was always easy. But now, not so much. Pbut, I need to be patient and positive, two things I am not very good at. But eric is worth it. Our marriage is worth it, I just– I just have to have complete faith in eric’s love and commitment to me.
Donna: I don’t want to put you on the spot.
Eric: You don’T. Donna, what we share is exactly what I need. You bring a positivity to my life, you bring such light, it’s exactly what I need. Positivity, caring, and– and you make me laugh.
Donna: Yeah?
Eric: Yeah.
Donna: Well, there is nothing I enjoy more than putting a smile on this beautiful face.
Eric: Yeah?
Donna: Yeah, because you are, and always will be, the great love of my life.
Hope: Mom, liam spent the night at steffy’s because kelly needed him.
Liam: And I really did, really did mean to call, I just– yeah?
Hope: I get that you want to help steffy, we all do, and she has this amazing support network there for her, all these people who want to help her.
Liam: Yeah, yeah.
Hope: So, I mean, if– if you ever want kelly spend the night here, we could also do that.
Liam: Oh yeah, uh, no, definitely, and I would, it’s just that right now I feel like kelly really needs to be with her mom.
Hope: Okay. Okay, so– so what does that mean for you, like how– how much time do you want to spend over there?
Liam: I don’t know, I– I don’t know, I mean– I guess I– I guess I’ll just have to see how things play out, I mean ridge and taylor are there, and she loves them, so that– that’s good, you know?
Brooke: How is ridge?
Liam: Uh, he’s– I mean, he’s worried, he’s worried about steffy and the kids, but it’s ridge, you know, he’s not going to show that. I want to be sensitive, I– you might not want to hear this, but I think as a family, they are really pulling together.
Brooke: Yeah, I mean, that doesn’t really surprise me. Ridge wants to do everything he can for his daughter, so– it just breaks my heart, knowing that he’s not coming home.
Ridge: We’re all here, whatever you need.
Steffy: I’m just so tired.
Taylor: I know, baby. I know. Why don’t you go lie down okay? Get some rest, let your father and I take care of things.
Ridge: Slow down. Okay? It’s going to be okay. She’s going to be alright.
Taylor: I’m just glad we’re doing this together. Showing our kids that they can rely on their parents.
Ridge: And that their parents can rely on each other.
Carter: Have you been as clear with your feelings to eric as you’ve been with me? He might not spend so much time away if he knew how much you missed him. I mean, if I was in his shoes, I’d think about taking a sabbatical, or at least a very long, romantic vacation.
Quinn: Says the man who once offered to run away with me.
Carter: Yeah. Heh. I’m grateful for everything that we experienced, quinn, but I knew we couldn’t keep sneaking around.
Quinn: No, it’s not the man you are.
Carter: It’s not the relationship I wanted to have with you. If I get involved with anybody, they can’t be involved with anyone else, I can’t cross that line again.
Quinn: Ugh, neither will I. Eric never has to worry about that. I will be as faithful to him as he has always been to me.
Donna: I just want to treasure every little moment that I have with my honeybear.
[ Brooke sighing ]
Brooke: Why won’t you come home, ridge?
Ridge: You know, I– can’t imagine going through any of this without you by my side.
Taylor: I hate, I hate that I haven’t been here, I hate that I was gone for such a long time. I– I’ve missed out on so much, I should have been here. I should have been here when– I missed out on finn, I missed out on so many things, I–
Ridge: Well, you’re here now, and doc, I couldn’t be any more grateful.
Taylor: Doc… you say that and it reminds of- reminds me of happier times, but I don’t think we’re going to see those for a while, ridge, I am so worried. Steffy can’t remember anything, she doesn’t know what happened that night. The– the events of that night are gonna– are gonna be so hard to cope with, when she can’t even remember what happened. Hayes is going to grow up without a father, and– and kelly, even though she tries to pretend she’s okay, she’s not, and she’s scared.
Ridge: Okay. Okay, look at me, look at me. We have to focus and we have to find a way to get our family through this. Protect our daughter, make sure she’s okay.
Taylor: She’s going to struggle.
Ridge: Yeah, she is.
Taylor: Yeah.
Ridge: But she has your strength, and she has you. You’re going to be here. So am I.
Taylor: Good, because I need you to be.
Ridge: I’m not going anywhere.
Brooke: Please, ridge. [ Sighing ] Come home.
