Finn: What are you talking about, sheila isn’t dead?
Deacon: I know this sounds crazy, but what if, what if it were true?
Liam: So kelly left this guy at my place. I’m not sure bedtime would go as smoothly without it.
Steffy: Thank you. How could she forget this little guy? Oh, wait. Oh, it’s when you took her on a shopping spree and got her every single stuffed animal she could possibly want.
Liam: Not that she could possibly want. Just that she could carry. I have trouble saying no.
Steffy: Yeah, she has you wrapped around her finger.
Liam: Yeah. It’s a good finger to be wrapped around, though. You know something? This is, um… it’s kind of nice.
Steffy: What?
Liam: Just… not worrying that you and the kids are safe. Not having to leave here with a pit in my stomach. Life sure got easier with sheila gone for good.
Rj: So, sis, on a scale of one to ten, how stressed are you about hope for the future?
Hope: Are you kidding? I mean, I have surrounded myself with talent. My vision is clear. Yeah, I would be at about a ten.
Rj: Why? Why are you like that? We’re good. Everything’s good.
Hope: Look, I am appreciative, you know, that you and zende and luna, that you’re really going to step up.
Rj: But I feel like there’s a but coming.
Hope: Oh. Because I would be lying if I said I wasn’t worried. I mean, the last time thomas was off the line, it almost got shelved.
Rj: That’s not going to happen this time. Look, zende, luna, and I, we’re gonna have your back, and we’re a team, and we’re gonna look out for each other.
Zende: You wanna tell rj what happened between us?
Luna: I have to, okay? Keeping this secret from the man I love is killing me.
[ Knocking on door ]
Poppy: Luna, what’s wrong? What’s going on?
Luna: I’ve made up my mind, mom. I’m telling rj about my night with zende.
Hope: I really appreciate the support and concern.
Rj: That’s what family’s for. Plus, I totally believe in your vision.
Hope: While I’m not going to lie, thomas leaving is a bit concerning for the line. But I also think we have a good game plan. I mean, I have my super talented little bro helping out on the designs. Not to mention, zende already knows my vision and my style. And he’s worked very closely with thomas. And now, luna will be working closely with him. I think it would be a great experience for her. I mean, zende has so much to offer.
Poppy: I thought you agreed you were going to keep that night a secret.
Luna: I’ve been trying, okay? I mean, I hate the thought of messing up rj and zende’s relationship.
Poppy: Well, what about messing up your relationship with rj?
Luna: I’ve been basically lying to him, mom, and it’s killing me. I mean, this is not who I am. This is not the woman that you raised me to be.
Poppy: Luna, just– just think about this.
Luna: No, mom, please stop. You can’t talk me out of this, okay? Neither of you can. I mean, rj deserves to know the truth, and I’m– I’m gonna tell him. And there is nothing that either of you can say to stop me.
Liam: Thank you.
Steffy: Yeah.
Liam: So, how’s finn? I’m playing nice. I’m just, uh… I don’t know, curious if going to this memorial got sheila out of his system.
Steffy: You know he’s had some kind of, like, primal connection to sheila. That, I’ll never understand.
Liam: ‘Cause it’s not logical.
Steffy: You already know that I wasn’t happy about finn going to sheila’s memorial.
Liam: I do know. And why would you be? It’s kind of silly. He should have been here with his wife and his family.
Steffy: Well, he needed to be there. Liam, he got closure. It’s finally over. And you’re right. We don’t have to worry about sheila anymore.
Finn: Deacon, what are you talking about?
Deacon: Listen, I know– I know this sounds crazy, okay? But what if… what if she’s still alive?
Finn: You hear yourself right now, deacon? Okay, sheila, she died in my home. There was paramedics. There was police. We just had her memorial service. You went to the crematorium.
Deacon: I know.
Finn: Then how could you possibly think that sheila’s alive?
Deacon: It doesn’t make sense. I saw her face myself. I said goodbye. The person who was being cremated… had ten toes. Ten toes, finn.
Rj: It’s no secret. Um, there’s been tension between zende and me, but it was because, you know, he thought it was unfair that I got to work on granddad’s line. But it’s okay. We’re fine. That’s in the past now.
Hope: Well, I’m sure he feels the same way.
Rj: Yeah. I think he’s a very talented designer, and I think I can learn a lot from him.
Hope: Okay. So then, how do you feel about zende and luna working together?
Rj: I– I think learning from zende is really good for luna right now.
Luna: Do you know what it’s like to lie to the person that you love? Mom, it’s torture. And I can’t do it anymore.
Poppy: Honey–
Luna: No, mom, please stop trying to talk me out of doing what you know is right.
Poppy: I won’T. I let you down, sweetheart. And it breaks my heart. I’m giving up the mints. I’m not taking them anymore. And I’m also done pressuring you into not following your heart. So, if you want to tell rj about what happened, then you should. I am so sorry, sweetheart.
Liam: Well, as the mother of my child and someone I… happen to care about, I just hope you don’t feel like you’re going through this alone.
Steffy: Thank you for caring about me, but I’m– I’m not alone, liam.
Liam: Good. Still think finn going to that memorial’s kind of messed up, but okay.
Steffy: Okay. Well, I think finn is just trying to process everything the best he can, and he is determined to put sheila behind us. And honestly, I feel as though I’m more patient with him, knowing that sheila is gone. That she is never coming back.
Finn: Deacon, I know it’s hard to say goodbye. And look, on– on some level, I feel the same way, but… what you’re saying and what you think you saw, you most likely–
Deacon: I didn’t think. I know what I saw, finn. I was there. I know what I saw. I asked to witness the cremation. I didn’t want to leave sheila alone. And frankly, I wasn’t ready to say my final goodbyes. I looked at her. I looked at her, and it was sheila. And then the attendant, he asked me if I wanted to press the button. And, man, that was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. And the cremator doors, they opened, and the box started moving in. But it got jostled and the sheet that was covering her body, it slipped off and it exposed her feet and that’s when I saw it. That’s when I saw that she had ten toes. Skin-carving next level hydration?
Hope: Well, I am glad to hear that you and zende are on better terms. Rj, I mean, you two, you’re the future of this company. You are the next generation of forrester.
Rj: And we are going to continue to make sure that hope for the future is a success.
Hope: Thank you. Honestly, I was a little nervous to do this without thomas again, but with your support, I am feeling much more at ease.
Rj: Good.
Hope: And I’m excited for luna. I think she’s going to be a big part of this collaboration.
Rj: You think so? I mean, she’s– she’s one of a kind. I mean, she has a mind for business, and she has an eye for fashion. Not only that, she has an insane amount of work ethic. Those are her bad points. I swear. She’s got a great heart, and she’s incredibly honest. I think you’ll love that about her. And… she’s been a light in my life and I’M… we are now very lucky to have her.
[ Luna sighing ]
Zende: Your mom loves you very much.
Luna: Yeah, and I love her, too. And, um, I’m really grateful that she stopped trying to talk me out of telling rj the truth. Listen, I… I realized that this could have a serious impact on your relationship with rj, and I hate that. I– listen, I– I tried to keep this secret for as long as I could, for both of your sakes.
Zende: And I appreciate that so much, but… I agree with poppy. You should tell rj the truth. I can see how much the secret is eating at you, and I don’t want that. I care about you too much.
Liam: Still feels surreal, you know? Sheila carter, gone forever.
Steffy: Yeah, it’s still gonna take some, uh, time to process for both finn and me.
Liam: Where is the good doctor?
Steffy: Oh, yeah, he ran out to meet up with deacon. Deacon called him. He sounded really upset. I guess he’S… I don’t know, struggling with sheila’s death.
Liam: Wow.
Steffy: Yeah.
Liam: I don’t really get how someone like deacon could come to find anything redeemable about sheila. Like, deacon and I, we’ve had our issues in the past, but I always admired his… his street smarts, his ability to read people, and yet…
Steffy: Yeah, I have no sympathy for that man, so…
Liam: Well, apparently, finn does.
Steffy: Finn is a doctor through and through. He cares about people, even when they don’t deserve it. Look, he’s gonna go see deacon, and that’s it. Hey, finn already told me. He said we’re done talking about sheila once and for all.
Finn: Okay, deacon, listen to me, okay? As a doctor, I experience death a lot. And for some families who are present when they have their loved ones take their last breath, it’s not uncommon for them to think they saw something, like an eye flutter or a finger twitch. One time, a wife thought her deceased husband had a smile. Okay? It’s sometimes a way of our mind processing.
Deacon: I know what I saw. I saw ten toes. I saw it. I saw it with my own eyes. And then I– I– I tried to get the guy to stop the process.
Finn: Yeah, you need to get ahold of yourself. You’re freaking out.
Deacon: Yeah, I am freaking out, ’cause I cannot explain this. Do you understand? I looked at her. It was sheila. I looked with my own two eyes. There were ten toes. What if it wasn’t sheila that was cremated?
This is not just a stop
for allergy meds.
Rj: It’s kind of wild, isn’t it? You know, when I first got back to L.A., I was like, I don’t want anything to do with the family business. I want to do my own thing.
Hope: Any regrets?
Rj: No. I’m lucky. I mean, look at me. I get to work with my talented sister, you.
[ Both chuckle ] I get to design with my cousin. I get to build something I love with the woman I love. I’m excited. I think– I think we’re gonna make hope for the future even better now because of what we all share. Transparency and trust.
Zende: I’m so sorry this is happening to you.
Luna: Yeah, me too.
Zende: You’re a good person. There’s nothing you could do to change that. Rj knows this. You won’t lose him.
Luna: God, everything was so perfect. From working at forrester to falling in love with rj and your family accepting me.
Zende: Now, it’s a nightmare.
Luna: Yeah, because of my mom’s mints.
Zende: Regardless of whatever was happening, I shouldn’t have come onto my cousin’s girl. And I never would have allowed what happened between us that night, had I known that you weren’t yourself. And… if I didn’t have these feelings I have for you…
Luna: Zende.
Zende: I’m not coming onto you, I swear. I’m just being honest. I guess what I’m trying to say is, if… rj doesn’t handle it well when you tell him what happened between us, and I truly hope he does. But if for some reason he blames you, I’m here.
Steffy: Baker stopped by forrester the other day. He confirmed sheila’s death was an act of self defense.
Liam: I mean, no surprise there, but… it’s gotta be a relief. Help you heal, help you move on.
Steffy: Yeah, it is. I just wanted to tell you. Okay, we need to really stop talking about sheila. So, how are you? And don’t deflect, okay? Be real with me.
Liam: I’m good. I’m hanging in there. I’m, uh… um, focusing on beth and kelly and work. Actually, I don’t know. I think maybe, uh… maybe I’m doing… some soul searching. I’m asking myself some… kind of uncomfortable questions.
Steffy: Like what?
Liam: Like, am I the kind of man that I would ever want to see either of them with? Not really. I was accused of waffling over the years, you know? And I’m guilty as charged, the way that i went back and forth between you and hope over and over and over again. I gotta figure out who the hell I am. And maybe… maybe I just want to be dad for a little while, you know? Be the best– be the best dad that I can be for my daughters.
Steffy: Liam, you are a great father. I’ve seen your growth, your self-awareness. You should be proud of yourself.
Liam: Thank you. That means a lot, coming from you.
Deacon: I am not making this up. When I saw her feet, I saw ten toes. That image is burned inside my brain. Now, you tell me, how there could be ten.
Finn: Because there weren’T. None of this is real. Ten toes? Deacon, your mind is playing tricks on you.
Deacon: It keeps popping into my head again and again and again and I can’t get it out.
Finn: Yeah, you’re upset. You’re obviously grieving. Deacon, you and sheila, you had planned this whole life together. Some people saw her as a monster. You saw her as someone worthy of love. And you’re devastated. But you have got to let this go. There is no way that sheila wasn’t at the crematorium. You said you saw her yourself. It’s time to say goodbye. I know it’s hard to accept, but sheila, she’s dead.
