Deacon: So, you guys really think sheila faked her own death?
Steffy: Sounds crazy, I know.
Finn: But nothing’s adding up.
Deacon: What’s not adding up? I- chief baker closed the case, her official death certificate said mauled by a bear.
Finn: Think about it. It’s way too convenient.
Steffy: Sheila’s wanted for double attempted murder and then she just winds up dead? And the only thing they find is her toe.
Deacon: Hope told me that they found a bunch of other stuff up there, too, though.
Finn: Yeah, but not enough. And there should have been more blood. There– there’s a lot that doesn’t make any sense.
Deacon: So you guys are serious. You– you really think she’s still alive?
Steffy: We’re certain of it.
Katie: Well. Hello there.
[ Laughs ]
Carter: Sorry.
Katie: No, no, don’t– don’t apologize. This might be the best thing that’s happened to me all day.
Carter: Happy to oblige. Although, I don’t know what that says about your day. Must have been pretty uneventful.
Katie: Not anymore.
Liam: Oh, good. I heard you were working from here. Listen, we gotta talk about this buyout. I’m starting to question whether it’s a good idea. So, is wyatt, obviously, you know, you have the final say, but we kind of need a decision today. And you’ve been a little M.I.A. Oh, no, dad. Not the necklace. What’s going on with you?
Liam: Dad, why are you wearing the sword necklace?
Bill: Katie put you up to this?
Liam: Katie? No.
Bill: Well, she was here earlier. Asked the same question.
Liam: Yeah, I imagine she did. It’s not exactly a good omen.
Bill: It’s just a piece of jewelry.
Liam: No, it’s not– it’s not a piece of jewelry. It’s a metaphor for your self-destructiveness.
Bill: Dramatic, don’t you think?
Liam: I’m not being– when you wear that thing on your neck, it means you’re in scorched earth mode. So what gives? What’s going on with you? ‘Cause I thought you were done with it forever.
Bill: Forever’s a long time. And I don’t have to explain myself to you.
Liam: Okay. I– all right. Fine. So katie was here. Why? What happened?
Katie: You’re actually just the man I was looking for. Justin says these contracts are urgent, so I volunteered to be the messenger. Glad I did. I got more than what I bargained for. Not complaining.
Carter: I left my bag here, and I thought I had the place to myself, but I am glad you’re still here.
Katie: Me too.
Carter: I spoke to brooke earlier and she said you overheard me singing your praises to bill.
[ Sighs ]
Deacon: There was a full investigation, right? The dna matched the blood at the scene.
Steffy: No one’s disputing that.
Deacon: Okay. So what has you convinced that she’s still alive? Oh, come on. No. Is that her toe? Oh, god. I need a beer. You want one?
Steffy: No, thank you.
Deacon: How the hell’d you get that, anyway?
Finn: Detective sanchez gave it to me.
Deacon: What, as a souvenir?
Steffy: Finn was suspicious. Now, so am I.
Deacon: So you’re just walking around with this toe, knocking on doors?
Steffy: Only your door, deacon. We’re here to see if you could help us find sheila carter. You didn’t live this strong, this long to get put
Liam: I take it your visit with katie didn’t go the way you hoped. Listen, I’m sure you don’t want to talk about it, but I’m here.
Bill: Yeah, there’s not much to talk about. It’s as simple as this. I poured out my soul to katie, and she wants nothing to do with me.
Liam: That must have been really hard. I’m sorry.
Bill: Katie’s moving on. With carter walton.
Katie: I deserve better. That’s what you said to bill.
Carter: I’m not wrong.
Katie: No, you’re not. It’s taken me a while to… really accept that I deserve more than what bill is capable of giving me. It’s hard, you know, with the child and we have so much history.
Carter: It’s natural to want to make it work for your son, for your family.
Katie: Until it becomes abundantly clear that it is not going to work and it never will.
Carter: Wow. Sounds like you’ve come to terms with it. That’s a big step.
Katie: You’re making my happiness your business?
Carter: You heard that too, huh?
Katie: I did.
Carter: Is that okay?
Katie: Yeah, it’s more than okay. It felt really powerful and reassuring. Especially in that moment. Bill had literally just finished pleading with brooke to give him another chance and you– you saw what he was doing and you stood up for me.
Carter: Defending a fascinating, talented, beautiful woman like you. It’s easy.
Deacon: Isn’t that enough proof? I mean, you got a gross decomposing toe. I mean, it’s a pretty good indication she’s no longer with us.
Finn: It certainly appeared sheila was mauled by a bear.
Steffy: You know, she was up in the sierra mountains based on some security footage.
Deacon: Right. Right. They– they found her car up there, didn’t they?
Steffy: Yeah. They found a cell phone, id.
Finn: Some of sheila’s hair, some blood spattered clothing.
Deacon: Yeah, I heard the crime scene photos were pretty gnarly.
Finn: Not as bad as I would have expected. A vicious animal attack like that? There should have been more remains left behind.
Deacon: Jeez, that bear must have been famished, getting ready for winter hibernation. I’m sorry that I– I didn’t mean any disrespect by that, I know that was your mother.
Finn: My birth mother.
Deacon: Right. I just, you know, still, what she did to you two…
Steffy: It’s difficult because we didn’t get justice for her crimes.
Finn: And that’s what we think sheila’s motive is.
Steffy: It’s either die or go to prison.
Finn: That’s why we have this little investigation of our own.
Deacon: You guys think the cops will reopen this thing?
Finn: Depends.
Deacon: On?
Steffy: If we can prove sheila’s not really dead.
Deacon: What? Why do you think she’s still kicking it? I mean, what prompted this?
Steffy: Deacon, you know sheila. Who else would cut off their toe and fake their own death?
Bill: You know what? I am so tired of this. Everybody just betraying me. You’re challenging me. Katie is moving on with carter walton. Brooke welcomes forrester back for more– more pain and suffering and disappointment.
Liam: For the record, they’re not back together.
Bill: You know what? I don’t give a damn. I’m tired of it, liam. Been stabbed in the back. Even justin, my best friend, my right hand man, my brother. My brother stabbed me in the back. And now what? Working at forrester.
Liam: Hey, dad. You have a right to disappointment. And I know you probably don’t want to hear this, but it is actually okay to feel sorry for yourself once in a while.
Bill: No, liam, I don’t want to hear it. And I’m not feeling sorry for myself. I’m giving you factual information, but you keep it up and you’re going to be feeling sorry for yourself.
Liam: All right. Okay, fine, fine. Then as your son. Stop it. Stop it. ‘Cause all this? This is ego. It’s your ego talking. And when your ego’s in charge, you get into trouble.
Katie: I believe you when you say wonderful things to me. With bill, I was– I was never always completely sure. I, uh, saw him earlier, he made– he made another impassioned plea for us to reconcile.
Carter: What’d you say?
Katie: I told him the truth. That I’m moving on. It’s hard.
Carter: Which part?
Katie: The part where I married a man, and I had a child with him, and I gave my heart to him, and he says that my sister is the true love of his life.
[ Sighs ] Gosh. Do you think there’s a man in los angeles who doesn’t want brooke? Who isn’t in love with brooke? Brooke, brooke, brooke, brooke, brooke. I mean, I love my sister, but do you think that there’s just one man, just one man who doesn’t want her, who isn’t in love with her and who might want someone like me?
Carter: [ Clears throat ]
Katie: [ Laughs ]
Deacon: So you really think she cut off her own toe?
Finn: I know that sounds crazy. And–
Deacon: Well, you know when I hear crazy, I mean, who else are you going to think of but sheila? You just seem very convinced.
Liam: You know, it was just something that was bugging me. This feeling that I had. Something wasn’t right. So I got detective sanchez to bring me up some evidence so I can take a closer look at it.
Steffy: We put her toe under a microscope.
Finn: There is no sign that a wild animal clawed or chewed this off. There’s no sign of traumatic amputation. This was cut cleanly. Evenly sliced with a sharp knife to make it look like it was torn off.
Steffy: By none other than nurse sheila carter. Unless she had help from someone else. ()
Liam: All right. One more reality check. Katie is not leaving your family. She’s a loving, devoted mother and you’re a damn good father. But you have to accept the fact that you two have not been an item in a long time.
Bill: Not officially, maybe. But it’s always been right there under the surface. Just a matter of when, not if. Everybody knew that we would end up together.
Liam: You really think that?
Bill: Katie or brooke. I was meant to be with one or the other.
Liam: Yeah. Yeah, but you can’t have both.
>Bill: You know me pretty well, liam. And you know that I don’t like when somebody tells me what I can and cannot have in my business affairs or affairs of the heart. Have I made mistakes? Sure. We all have. But I have loved them, I have cared for them, I have protected them, and this is what I get in return? Nobody betrays my trust and nobody dismisses me. I am dollar bill spencer.
Liam: Hey, hey, hey. You’re fired up. I see it. I get it. But promise me you’re not going to do something drastic.
[ Exhales ]
[ Clearing throat ]
Carter: Sorry, I have something in my throat. Let’s run that back. So you’re looking for a guy who’s not in love with your sister?
Katie: Yeah! Just one small little thing. Is that too much to ask?
Carter: No, not at all. And I want to go on record to say that although I respect brooke, I admire her, I appreciate her, I enjoy working with her, but that’s it, that’s as far as it goes.
Katie: Are you sure? Are you sure you’ve never been interested in brooke?
Carter: No.
Katie: Positive?
Carter: No, not once. The only logan I have my eye on is the one I’m staring at. You’re amazing, katie. I mean, you’re vibrant, you’re genuine, you’re smart. I mean, you’re funny. And you’re beautiful. Very beautiful.
Deacon: Come on, there’s no way that–
Finn: I can tell you’re freaking out, deacon.
Deacon: No– me? I–
Steffy: I mean, we’re freaking out, too. We thought sheila was dead.
Finn: We had convinced ourselves that we were free of sheila and all of her threats. I mean, but now we’re sure she’s alive.
Deacon: Have you taken this theory to detective sanchez? And have you mentioned this to the cops?
Steffy: No, we came here first.
Deacon: Wh– here? Why?
Steffy: Because you and sheila have a history.
Deacon: Oh. Come on, no.
Finn: As soon as sheila came back to town, hope and I saw you with her at el giardino. You guys were clearly an item.
Deacon: Okay, that was ages ago, and I would hardly call us an item. Look, she’s got a very strong personality and can be a little difficult to say no to.
Steffy: We just thought sheila might have some help pulling this all off.
Finn: And what we do know is she has very few friends in L.A. And she would probably be reaching out to someone at some point.
Steffy: Yeah, she has no one to turn to… except you. So if you know anything, where she’s been, where she’s going, it’d be great if you can tell us.
Finn: Having information not coming forward, that would create a hell of a lot of problems.
Steffy: I’m not trying to accuse you of anything, but if you could just shed a light on her whereabouts, if you know anything.
Deacon: Look, if sheila’s still alive, I have no idea where she is.
Finn: Okay. Let us know if she reaches out. Sheila’s a dangerous woman. None of us are safe with her on the loose.
Deacon: I know.
Steffy: Thanks.
