Liam: Man, our daughter never ceases to amaze me.
Steffy: Yeah, I know. Right when I told her mommy was going to italy, she immediately wanted to learn italian.
Liam: I know. Yeah, I gotta say, that app is pretty incredible just because of the way that it, like, with the videos and the games and stuff. It makes it fun. Even I’ve picked up a few phrases, I think.
Steffy: Oh, really?
Liam: Yeah. Uh wait, wait.
[ Speaking italian ]
Steffy: Oh, okay.
Liam: Right? Yeah.
Steffy: Translation please?
Liam: Oh, uh, I love our little girl so much.
Steffy: Aw, [Indistinct].
Liam: Big day tomorrow.
Steffy: Yeah, everyone’s flying off to roma for hope for the future’s big preview and the big press event. You know what that means?
Liam: Yeah. Yeah. Your brother and my wife are gonna be inseparable.
Steffy: How are you doing?
Liam: I’m all right. Wish I could say, carefree, but not so much.
Deacon: Sweetheart, thank you so much for making time to see your old man before you go jetting off. You must be so excited.
Hope: I am. I can’t wait.
Deacon: Yeah.
Hope: We’ve been working so hard on this. Oh, and um, guess who will be joining us now?
Deacon: Oh, your mother?
Hope: How did you know that?
Deacon: What, are you kidding me? You think she wouldn’t be there to support you?
[ Hope chuckling ]
Deacon: So, uh, what about thomas? Is he still going?
Hope: Yes, of course, he is. Dad, he’s the lead designer of hope for the future.
Deacon: I can only imagine how liam feels about that.
Rj: You’re all packed for the big day tomorrow, right?
Ridge: Me? I haven’t even started.
Eric: Yeah, your father always waits ’til the last minute.
Ridge: I like travel light. What can I tell you?
Rj: Hey, you know, I do the same thing. It makes for more of an adventure. But, uh, it’s not saying that this is that by any means, there’s a lot at stake, right?
Ridge: Yeah. But, uh, I think hope and her line are gonna do just great.
Rj: Yeah. You know, mom says the same thing. She really, really is hope’s biggest cheerleader.
Ridge: And she’s gonna be there to see it all.
Rj: Who, mom?
Ridge: Yeah. She– she told you she was coming, right?
Rj: Oh, yeah. She might have mentioned it maybe like two dozen times.
[ Eric laughing ]
Eric: Well, your mother and father together in rome, one of the most romantic cities in the world. Wonder what they’re gonna do with their spare time.
Brooke: Si. Yes, I am so proud of hope. Her line is just, uh, well, you’ll see for yourself. Just prepare to be wowed. Yes. Ridge and I will be in italy together. Uh, gabrielle. I have to go. Somebody just walked in and I have to deal with them. Okay. [ Speaking italian ]
Taylor: You know, I’ve been thinking. And um, I still believe that you are not transparent when it came to ridge, but I reacted poorly. Besides that, I– I really was trying to support you in moving on with your life.
Brooke: So, that you could try to move on with ridge.
Ridge: Do I need to remind you guys that this is a business trip?
Rj: Sure seems like you’re packing in a lot in a really short amount of time.
Eric: And that doesn’t mean that you and brooke can’t enjoy a little time together by yourselves in your spare time.
Ridge: Oh, wow. You are about as subtle as a sledgehammer.
[ Eric laughing ] Don’t get any ideas. You or you.
Rj: Me? What did I say? What did I say?
Ridge: Brooke is going because she is an essential part of this company. Anything else?
Eric: Anything else? Anything more than that would make this trip even more memorable, actually, in more ways than one.
Brooke: Okay. I really don’t have time for this. I’m trying to prepare for my trip tomorrow.
Taylor: Your big trip, your– your trip to rome with ridge.
Steffy: Liam, I understand why you feel that way. And you know, I have my concerns too, but this isn’t like san francisco. Hope and thomas aren’t gonna be alone together.
Liam: True.
Steffy: They’re gonna be crazy busy the whole time. But you’re still worried?
Liam: I mean, not about hope. Like I– I know she loves me.
Steffy: Yeah, so do I. But you know how I feel. I think hope has these confusing feelings towards thomas. Feelings that she hasn’t even acknowledged to herself or to you.
Hope: Don’t worry about me. I can handle liam.
Deacon: Just a little gentle suggestion. Don’t handle him. Listen to him.
Hope: Yeah, except he’s not listening to me. I keep telling him it’s just business. Nothing more.
Deacon: You sure that thomas knows that?
Hope: Thomas isn’t the problem, okay? And besides, I’ve actually, I’ve been thinking about something else lately.
Deacon: What have you been thinking about?
Hope: You know, just you and mom. Your lives, the decisions that you’ve made.
Deacon: Oh, boy.
Hope: Mm-hmm. Obviously, dad, I know that you are a good man, but you know, once upon a time, maybe you didn’t make the best choices and kind of gave into your desires and maybe you were a little impulsive.
Deacon: Well, you know, it is true that I’m not exactly a paragon of restraint but, you know, had I not given in to some of those desires, you, my darling daughter would not be sitting here in front of me. But you’re not like that. You don’t have to worry about it. Everything looks so good.
Ridge: Charlie. Charlie. No, no, no, no. It’s– it’s a simple question. Is my passport in the safe? No. Okay. Thank you.
Eric: Leave charlie alone. You do this every time and–
Ridge: And every time, I find it. It’s okay.
Rj: I’m gonna remind mom about hers tonight. I’m sure that she knows where her passport is.
Ridge: You’re being very helpful. Thank you so much. Ha!
Rj: Hey!
Eric: We’re all so happy. We’re all so relieved. Now, what about taylor?
Ridge: What about her?
Eric: You said that she expressed the desire to maybe come along?
Rj: Whoa, wait a minute. Taylor’s gonna tag along with you to rome?
Ridge: It’s a big moment for her son.
Eric: Yeah. No question about that. But like you said, this is a business trip and I’m not sure that taylor tagging along is a very good idea. Especially with brooke there.
Brooke: Yes, I am going to rome. In addition to the preview and the press event, I will also be meeting with the top suppliers and our very important buyers.
Taylor: I’m just– I’m just glad that you– you get to be there to support your daughter.
Brooke: Yeah, she has a lot riding on this and she’s going to be center stage, so of course, I would be there to support her.
Taylor: You know something? I was thinking about going too.
Brooke: Oh, you’re just gonna tag along?
Taylor: You know, I actually mentioned to ridge that I’d like to be there to support thomas.
Brooke: When did you mention that to ridge? Before or after you told him that I haven’t changed and that I never will? Which is a complete lie, by the way. Oh, and then you told him how much you missed him.
Taylor: Yeah, it was the same conversation that you overheard. I guess you missed that part. Anyway, wouldn’t it be fun if we were on the same flight together?
Brooke: No, that is absolutely ridiculous. This is strictly business. This is forrester creations fashion. You have nothing to do with that, taylor. So, there’s absolutely no reason for you to be there.
Deacon: Sweetheart, look, I’m not putting your mother down. I mean, far from it. And without a question, brooke is one of the most exciting, passionate women on the planet, but she is also impulsive, like me. In the past, that’s gotten us both into hot water. Especially when it comes to affairs of the heart. Somehow, miraculously, we didn’t seem to pass that gene along to you. And you know, you’ve got a set of values that you live by, you know? You don’t let your emotions and your passions run wild. Frankly, I don’t know how you do it. I mean, I think you’re a saint.
[ Hope chuckling ]
Hope: No, dad. I am not a saint.
Steffy: Look, I’m not trying to cause you to question hope or make you paranoid, but my concerns haven’t changed.
Liam: Like, I’ve talked to hope about this and– and she’s assured me so many times there’s just nothing to worry about.
Steffy: Yeah, I– I realize that. But I also think she might be a little confused right now.
Liam: I know where you’re coming from. Like I know your intentions are good. It’s just the more I consider this, the more I gotta think you’re mistaken.
Steffy: I hope so. I– I really hope I’m wrong. But just to be safe, maybe you should come to rome. Welcome to my digestive system.
Rj: Granddad left pretty quickly to go see donna. Do you think everything’s okay?
Ridge: Oh, I– I think everything’s more than okay. This kind of stuff happens quite a bit.
Rj: Oh? Oh.
Ridge: Well, I’m glad we have this time alone together anyway because I wanted to talk to you. This trip that I’m taking with your mom to europe, don’t read too much into it.
Rj: Now, look, you know me, I’m– I’m allergic to the family drama. I hate all this stuff. I don’t want to get involved in any of it. But dad, mom is your destiny and you know it. The world knows it, including rome.
Taylor: Hey, brooke, it’s okay. I just– I just mentioned that I’d– that I’d like to go.
Brooke: Do I really need to say this again? You’re not in fashion, taylor. You’re a psychiatrist, you analyze people’s minds, not what they wear, so there’s really no reason for you to be there.
Taylor: You just don’t want me to go because you wanna jet off to rome just to be with ridge.
Brooke: Need I remind you I’m a very big part of forrester creations? I created the belief formula, the men’s line, taboo, and the very successful brooke’s bedroom line and now hope has her line, hope for the future.
Taylor: And that would have been pulled if it wasn’t for my son. So of course, I’d love to be there to support him.
Brooke: We all know why you want to be there. I can see right through you.
Deacon: It’s great to see you guys again. Thank you. Hey, what’s going on? You seem like you’re kind of down. Was it something I said?
Hope: Oh, no, no, no. No, it’s not– it’s not you. I just, um, have a lot going on in my life right now.
Deacon: You mean like resurrecting your company, an international fashion preview and maintaining your family? A little bit of advice. Honey, sometimes I think you might be a little hard on yourself. I mean, you’ve got all these– these goals and all these expectations and that’s fantastic. It’s important. But don’t forget to be human, all right? You know, let yourself have a little fun. It’s okay to make a couple of mistakes every now and then. You know, follow your passions.
[ Hope chuckling ]
Hope: Thank you. Uh, not exactly the advice that I was looking for, but um, it is appreciated. I need to be getting home to liam and the kids.
Deacon: Come here. Listen, you be careful, all right? But I want you to have a good time. I want you to make some memories. I know you’re gonna crush it in rome.
Hope: Thank you, dad.
Deacon: Okay, go get ’em.
Steffy: It’s totally up to you, but I think it would be wise to come along.
Liam: So funny. Wyatt said the same thing.
Steffy: And?
Liam: And uh, like I told him, I just, I refuse to be that guy that like insecure husband who’s keeping tabs on his wife.
Steffy: You’re not being insecure.
Liam: Yes. My wife works with your brother. I wish she didn’T. There’s nothing I can do about that, but it’s for all the reasons you and I both know. It has nothing to do with like a lack of faith in my wife.
Steffy: I know that. You have faith in hope just like I have faith in thomas. And I get this is hard for you and I’m not trying to add to it. How about I just keep an eye on things in rome? Just in case.
Rj: Look, I know that it– it sounds like I’m trying to push you and mom together, but I’m not, okay? It’s your lives, it’s your futures.
Ridge: But?
Rj: But, we both know if thomas hadn’t have done what he did, you and mom would still be together.
Ridge: Oh, stop it. I’ll always love your mom. Never gonna go away. We’re adults. We’re– we’re trying to break this cycle of pain and disappointment.
Rj: Okay, I get it, but I mean, unless you’re trying to join the clergy–
[ Ridge laughing ] I’m just saying.
Ridge: No, I know you’re just saying and I’m just saying, brooke and I, we don’t want to hurt each other anymore or the people we care about, including you.
Rj: Okay, I hear you. I’m just– I don’t know. Someday. Destiny. Maybe in rome.
Ridge: Yeah. All right.
Taylor: Wait a second. So– so you can see right through me? At least one of us is transparent, huh? All right. I just, I think that there’s– there’s more going on to this than you’re telling me. What is it?
Brooke: Okay. Yeah. There is. Um, I’m just a little bit worried about ridge.
Taylor: Why?
Brooke: I just feel like he’s lost, you know? Like, lost his faith.
Taylor: Lost his faith… in destiny? Oh, my god. That’s what it is. I’ve been right this whole time. Oh, god. So, you and ridge have been growing closer and– and now you’re going to rome to make him believe in love again. Oh, god. That’s what– I’m right. That’s what it is.
Brooke: Ciao, taylor.
Liam: Hey. Um, I just put the kids to bed.
Hope: Hm. Uh, well, I, uh, wasn’t working late with thomas, if that’s what you were wondering. I actually went to see my dad before I leave for this trip tomorrow.
Liam: Are you hungry? I can fix you something.
Hope: No, that’s okay. I’m just– I’m going to say goodnight to beth and douglaS.
Liam: Actually before you– just… because you already brought it up. But one last time, here’s my thing about thomas. It– it– it’s just–
Hope: Liam. Liam. Could we please not do this tonight? I’d really like our last night together to be one that’s peaceful and not talking about any of that. I mean, liam, look at me. I love you. More than anything. You’re the man I want in this life that we’ve built together as a family. I will not let anything jeopardize that. I made my vows to you, to love and to cherish you and nothing’s going to change that in the next few days, okay?
Liam: Yeah. No, I know.
Hope: I love you.
Liam: I know. I know. I know. I love you too.
Hope: Rome– rome’s going to be exciting. I mean, this might be one of hope for the future’s biggest successes and– and then I will be able to come home to you, to our family, to our life.
Liam: Yeah.
