[ Door slams ]
Finn: Wait, so, brooke and taylor were united?
Steffy: Yeah.
Finn: That’s crazy.
Steffy: I– I know, it was so crazy. But, like, in the best way.
Finn: Wait, and you’re not disappointed? I mean, you’ve been pushing so hard to get your parents back together.
Steffy: Well, I’ve always wanted my mom to be happy, but I thought, you know, some of her happiness would be, with my father. But to see my mother and brooke put their differences aside, and choose themselves over a man? The happiness was there. And it was really powerful, and, inspiring. I’m so proud of my mom.
Finn: I am, too. But, I am nervous about mine. I mean, as much as I want to applaud brooke and taylor, it’s hard to have anything else on my mind, other than sheila, knowing that she’s still alive.
[ Knocking at door ]
Eric: Carter.
Carter: Hey, eric. Um, what’s going on?
Eric: I was hoping to have a word with you. Alone.
Carter: Okay
[ Uncomfortable chuckle ]
Bill: You’re guarded. I– I don’t blame you. But you could’ve phoned me off, you didn’t have come tonight, bu– but you did. You’re here. And that tells me, that maybe, you really do still care about me.
Katie: Bill, of course I care about you. I will always care about you–
Bill: Well, if that’s true, then you have to at least consider what I’m saying. Tonight could be a new beginning for us. But you have no idea how much I need that. Please, katie. Tell me you need it, too?
Carter: Is something going on?
Eric: Yeah, carter, um… we haven’t had a chance to talk. Not since, uh… everything that happened between us.
Carter: Yes, eric–
Eric: Yeah, look, I have donna in my life now, and she makes me very, very, happy, and I want you to be able to be happy, too. And, from what donna’s telling me, um–
Carter: Oh, [ Chuckles ] I think I know where this is going.
Eric: Yeah, to, ah, you and katie. Is that, uh, is that true?
Carter: We’ve been spending time together, yes.
Eric: She’s very important to me, carter. I would hate to see katie to get hurt.
Carter: I only want what’s best for katie, and whether that’s me or not, is too early to tell, but… I’m hoping so, but that’s katie’s decision. There is one thing I am certain of though. When it comes for what’s best for katie, it sure as hell isn’t bill.
Katie: We have talked about this. There’s nothing–
Bill: Okay, but before you answer, there’s something I want to give you.
Katie: I don’t want any gifts.
Bill: Oh, come on! I mean, ’tis the season, you don’t want me to be scrooge this year!
Katie: Okay, but seriously, I don’t need anything.
Bill: Oh, but that’s what the beauty of it. It’s not a thing, all right? It’s an experience.
Katie: An experience?
Bill: You, me, and will. A week aboard the stella maris. You name the destination, and I will make it happen. C’mon katie, doesn’t that sound beautiful? I mean, the three of us, we haven’t been together in such a long time. Oh c’mon, please. Please let me arrange this. Will would love it. It’ll give us a chance to bond together as a family. I-I know you want that. And, I want it, too. More than you could possibly imagine.
Steffy: It still freaks me out that I bumped into sheila.
Finn: Hey.
Steffy: I wish I’d gone after her. Maybe she’d be back behind bars by now.
Finn: No, look, you were in shock. Hey, don’t blame yourself.
[ Door opens ]
Steffy: Chief baker!
Finn: Do you have any news?
Steffy: Have you found her? Have you found sheila? My name is austin james. As a musician living with diabete
Eric: Well, I wish you luck. Katie has tried to move on from bill before.
Carter: And it’s never quite worked out.
Eric: No, it hasn’T.
Carter: I know.
Eric: Maybe this time it’ll be different, you know, their son is older. Keeping a family unit together for his sake may not be as important anymore.
Carter: No, I think katie’s finally realized that bill can’t give her what she needs. A man who can commit to only her, and not have eyes for her sister.
Eric: It’s a reasonable request for any relationship, wouldn’t you say?
Carter: I think so. No, katie would not have to worry about that with me. If I was lucky enough to be with her, she would never have to question my commitment.
Eric: You should tell katie that. Maybe under some mistletoe.
Carter: Mistletoe?
Eric: Uh-huh. Why don’t you come to the house for christmas, if you don’t have any other plans? Katie’ll be there.
Carter: Thank you. Yeah, I’d love to.
Eric: Oh, and as an added incentive, ah, bill is not on the guest list.
Carter: That’s even better.
[ Both chuckling ] Actually, she’s, um, with him now.
Eric: She is?
Carter: He reached out. Asked her to come over, she said he doesn’t sound like himself.
Eric: Yeah, well, whatever it is, it’s– it’s a manipulation. It’s a ploy.
Carter: A ploy?
Eric: He’s trying to get her to come back.
Bill: What better way to spend the holidays than the three of us, alone on our yacht, away from it all?
Katie: So you– you wanna do this soon?
Bill: Listen, we– we can stay away for weeks, for months, there’s no reason not to. Katie, I need this. You’ve no idea how much I need this time with you and our son.
Katie: I get that you want it, but, you– you keep saying that you need it.
Bill: I do. Seriously. You are my anchor. And, without you, I’ve– I’m sort of floating, uh, around, lately. Without you to ground me, it is a need. You are. I need you katie, like never before.
Finn: Is that why you’re here? You got sheila?
Steffy: Please say that’s true.
Chief baker: Not quite.
Steffy: What do you mean, not quite?
Chief baker: Well, it took a bit of digging, but we were able to pull some footage of her.
Steffy: But– but deacon said that they weren’t able to catch anything on camera at el jardino?
Chief baker: You think I trust deacon sharp? Hmph. No. We checked nearby establishments. A place down the street caught her on camera, she was leaving the restaurant. Didn’t look much like sheila, either, I’ll tell ya that. We have a direct match. Sheila carter is alive. Here we have our mystery woman caught on camera.
Steffy: This is the woman I bumped into!
Chief baker: Forensics was able to confirm with facial recognition, and retinal scan. It’s a 98% match. In our world, it means “no doubt”.
Finn: I knew it! I knew it!
Steffy: Oh my god, this whole time! Sheila really has been alive! When our daughter and her kids moved in with us… our bargain detergent couldn’t keep up. Turns out it’s mostly water. So, we switched back to tide. One wash, stains are gone.
[Daughter] Slurping
don’t pay for water.
Pay for clean.
It’s got to be tide.
Bill: I can’t do it. I can’t go at it alone, anymore.
Katie: Go at what, alone?
Bill: Life.
Katie: Bill. You’re lonely. That’s what this is all about.
[ Chuckling ]
Bill: I– I know– I know this doesn’t– doesn’t sound like me. But I– I– I feel like I’m losing myself.
Katie: Yet, you’re still wearing that necklace. You still, decided to put it on. Even though you know what it stands for. Do you really think that that’s gonna… lead you back to who you wanna be?
Bill: Then help me! Please? Anchor me. Anchor me, katie.
Katie: I can’T. I can’t be your anchor, bill. I can’T. It’s too much!
[ Sharp inhale ] I can’t hold you in place. You say that you need me. And I believe you, I do. I believe you, but– but you’ve also said that you need brooke, or someone like her. That– that’s what you want. You want to float, and do whatever you wanna do. You don’t want an anchor. Maybe you want someone who sees that sword, and admires it, for– for everything it signifies.
Bill: No, no. No, you– you’re not hearing me. You don’t understand. I really do need you–
Katie: What about– what about– what about what I need! I mean, it’s always been about what you want and what you need, and maybe– maybe, I need someone to hear me? You say that you– you keep learning things about yourself everyday. Your– you’re learning things about yourself. And you’ve done that. You’ve done that on your own, so maybe, maybe, you, should– should go to your yacht, and spend some time alone there, ’cause I– I can’t be with you.
Bill: What are you doing?
Katie: I’m– I’m gonna, um, I’m gonna get somebody to come pick me up–
Bill: No, no, no, no no. Please– please don’t leave–
Katie: I can’t, I can’T. I can’t give you what you want, bill, I can’t give you what you need.
Bill: Don’t go, not yet.
Katie: It was a mistake for me to come here
Bill: Please don’t, look, I can’t stand being alone in this house, and I can’t stand, I gained an enormous amount of weight due to a medication I was put on. When I started the golo plan and taking release, I was surprised at how easy it was for the weight to come off. I’ve never done anything better in my life.
Bill: I can’t do it. I can’t go at it alone, anymore.
Katie: Go at what, alone?
Bill: Life.
Katie: Bill. You’re lonely. That’s what this is all about.
[ Chuckling ]
Bill: I– I know– I know this doesn’t– doesn’t sound like me. But I– I– I feel like I’m losing myself.
Katie: Yet, you’re still wearing that necklace. You still, decided to put it on. Even though you know what it stands for. Do you really think that that’s gonna… lead you back to who you wanna be?
Bill: Then help me! Please? Anchor me. Anchor me, katie.
Katie: I can’T. I can’t be your anchor, bill. I can’T. It’s too much!
[ Sharp inhale ] I can’t hold you in place. You say that you need me. And I believe you, I do. I believe you, but– but you’ve also said that you need brooke, or someone like her. That– that’s what you want. You want to float, and do whatever you wanna do. You don’t want an anchor. Maybe you want someone who sees that sword, and admires it, for– for everything it signifies.
Bill: No, no. No, you– you’re not hearing me. You don’t understand. I really do need you–

You say that you– you keep learning things about yourself everyday. Your– you’re learning things about yourself. And you’ve done that. You’ve done that on your own, so maybe, maybe, you, should– should go to your yacht, and spend some time alone there, ’cause I– I can’t be with you.

Katie: I’m– I’m gonna, um, I’m gonna get somebody to come pick me up–
Bill: No, no, no, no no. Please– please don’t leave–
Katie: I can’t, I can’T. I can’t give you what you want, bill, I can’t give you what you need.
Bill: Don’t go, not yet.
Katie: It was a mistake for me to come here
Bill: Please don’t, look, I can’t stand being alone in this house, and I can’t stand, who I am without you. You’re right. You’re right. You don’t know how right you are. I– I am not a good person–
Katie: You, just– stop, stop, stop saying that! Stop saying those words. You’re not a bad person!
Bill: When I have you, when you’re leading the way. That is the man I want to be. I swear. I swear, katie, I have a greater appreciation for you, now more than ever. I love you. I want to you back. Yes, I– I need you. You don’t like this necklace. I– I don’t care, I– I– I’ll take it off. I’ll throw it away. I’m only wearing it because I– I feel, like I, uh, need it for, protection. But if I have you, I don’t need it anymore. So, here, here, come here.
Katie: No.
Bill: You– you take it. Take it. You do whatever, you want to do with it. I don’t care. I only care about you. That’s all I care about. I just care that you will come back to me. You will come back to me. You will stay by my side. Stay by my side, forever. Please, katie?
Finn: Look, we were all but certain that sheila severed her own toe and staged the bear attack. It was just a theory. Now the police have actual proof, after your bump-in with her.
Chief baker: I have to commend the both of you for re-examining the evidence. If it wasn’t for you two, this case would still be closed.
Steffy: Okay, but we’re still no closer to catching her.
Chief baker: I wouldn’t say that. The security footage was very useful. Not just in terms of proving that sheila was alive, but also, telling us where to find her.
Steffy: You know what kind of car she was driving?
Chief baker: Even better. Her license plate.
Steffy: Oh, my god, this is great!
Chief baker: A stolen vehicle. No surprise there. We’re circling in on her. It’s only a matter of time, before sheila carter is found and arrested. I’m jonathan lawson here to tell you about life insurance th
Bill: Katie, uh, please, please cancel the ride.
Katie: I think it’s best if I go.
Bill: No! It’s not best. We need to talk this through.
Katie: I think we’ve said everything we need to say.
Bill: We haven’t! We haven’T. There’s too much more. I promise you. I promise you. I will be the man that you need.
Katie: What happens when I believe you? What happens when you hurt me again?
Bill: That won’t happen. Those days are– are behind us, those days are– are over. I swear to you. I will be exactly the man that you want me to be. You gotta listen to me. If you don’T… katie, it’s now or never.
[ Knock on the door ]
Katie: He’s here.
Bill: Who’s here?
Katie: I didn’t use an app. I– I texted a friend.
[ Door opens ]
Katie: Thank you for coming.
Carter: Not a problem. Bill.
Bill: Don’t do this. You can’t be with him. Here. Here is where you belong. With me. With me.
Katie: Goodbye, bill.
Bill: Don’t, katie.
Chief baker: Sheila can’t hide forever. Especially now that we have plates. I got the entire lapd looking out for that car.
Finn: If she’s still in town.
Chief baker: I’ll drop this picture off to your head of security. They need to know what she looks like in disguise.
Steffy: Okay, thank you.
[ Phone rings ]
Chief baker: Oh, excuse me one second. Baker.
Policeman: Sir, I’ve got her.
Chief baker: Sheila carter?
Policeman: Her car. Description. I’m tailing her. Southbound on la cienega.
Chief baker: I’m putting you on speaker. Did you call it in?
Policeman: You were
my first call.
Not sure if she’s
monitoring scanners.
Chief baker: Officer, don’t lose her! But, be aware, perp is very dangerous.
Policeman: Copy.
[ Police sirens blaring ]
Appears vehicle is getting
on the 405 heading south.
[ Sirens continue ] The suspect is fleeing.
Steffy: Follow her! Is he– are you following her?
Policeman: In pursuit.
Chief bake: Don’t lose her.
Finn: You– you can’t let sheila get away!
