Steffy: Finn, this makes no sense.
Finn: No, I know. It’s completely insane, but you should have seen deacon. He’s really shaken up about it. He– he believes it.
Steffy: Wait, he seriously thinks… deacon thinks that sheila might be alive?
Ridge: You really are losing it, aren’t you?
Deacon: Wait a second. Listen. Ridge, I know it sounds impossible.
Ridge: Because it is impossible. Look at you, you’re still cleaning up after the service you had.
Deacon: I know, but–
Ridge: But what? What’s going on with you? What are you talking about?
Deacon: I–
Carter: Zende, I’ve been picking up on vibes for quite some time that something’s wrong and I’m sorry. I should have been a better friend. I should have asked you about it sooner.
Zende: No, no, no, man. Come on. I probably would have just denied it anyway.
Carter: But you’re not denying now? You’re ready to talk about it?
Zende: I think I need to.
Carter: Okay, so whatever’s going on, it has something to do with luna?
Luna: I know that you’ve noticed I haven’t been acting like myself lately.
Rj: Yeah, I can tell, you– you’ve been kind of off for a while. Ever since my granddad’s wedding. Luna, whatever it is, I promise you, you can trust me. Anything.
Zende: It’s no secret, is it? How much I respect luna.
Carter: I think we all do around here.
Zende: She’s just, she’s so beautiful and smart and creative.
Carter: Yeah, yeah, she’s all those things. She’s also rj’s girlfriend. You don’t need a reminder about that, do you, zende? Zende, please tell me you understand that rj is with luna.
Luna: You’re so caring, rj. And so understanding. I mean, you’re everything that I ever dreamed of in a guy.
Rj: I’m not going anywhere. That’s more reality and less dream.
Luna: Okay. I– I really hope that that’s true.
Ridge: I gotta say, it’s not much of a memorial if the person that you’re talking about and honoring is not– if I’m– hey, you went down to the crematorium. You saw the–
Deacon: Yes, yes, I did. Yes, that’s true.
Ridge: Okay, so what? What are you talking about? What is this nonsense about her still being in our lives?
Steffy: Some of sheila’s crazy must have rubbed off on deacon if he is going around telling people that he doesn’t think that sheila’s dead.
Finn: I don’t know. He’s probably just processing grief, I guess.
Steffy: Yeah, he must be. I mean, I– I was there. I saw sheila. I mean, I’m the one who…
Finn: He’s not– he’s not thinking straight.
Steffy: Yeah, I mean, what a weird thing to say. Deacon saw her body. Unless he doesn’t trust his own eyes.
Finn: Well, no, that’s just the thing. That’s– that’s why he’s questioning it.
Steffy: What?
Finn: Her toes.
Steffy: Her toes? What? Hey! It’s your dry skin.
Carter: Look, zende, if you have feelings for luna, what am I talking about if? Of course you do. It’s written all over your face. Rj is your cousin, okay? You can’t act… hey, what’s that look? You’ve already acted on them?
Zende: Luna is totally committed to rj.
Carter: That doesn’t answer my question. You can be committed and still make a very bad decision.
Zende: It wasn’t her fault.
Carter: So something did happen.
Zende: Yeah. The night of my granddad’s wedding.
Luna: Before I tell you what’s been going on with me and why I haven’t been acting like myself, I just, I want to make it clear how much I love you, okay? And how much I treasure this relationship. It’s so important to me that you know that.
Rj: I do.
Luna: I mean, the thought of someone or something coming between us, like, it horrifies me. I’d never want that. Ever.
Rj: Do you– do you think that’s happened? Because I don’T. No one could come between us.
Luna: I want to believe that. I really do.
Rj: Luna, whatever this is, you are going to feel better if you tell me.
Luna: No, you’re right. You’re right. I– I need to open up to you. You deserve to know what happened.
Ridge: I get what you’re trying to do. You’re trying to keep her memory alive. But just know that for everybody else, she’s dead. And that includes finn. And I know you’re trying to get in his ear. I get all that.
Deacon: No.
Ridge: Well, no, you were trying to guilt him into coming to this memorial–
Deacon: I wasn’t guilting him. I just invited him to come. It’s not the same thing.
Ridge: Either way, he came. He was here and dead mommy was happy. Everyone was happy. But that’s the end of it. ‘Cause steffy, finn, they got a lot of things to worry about. A lot of things to work out. And they don’t need you walking around saying that sheila’s still with us. Deacon, come on, man. I like you. In your apartment, you should have a little corner with a candle, incense. And on her birthday every year, you can sacrifice a frog or a garden snake or something and do that. But for everyone else, she’s gone. Out of our lives. You may be wrong, ridge.
Steffy: Sheila’s toes? What about them?
Finn: All nine of them. You remember the fake bear attack?
Steffy: Oh, yeah. Yeah, when she cut off her own toe and convinced everyone that she was dead. Yeah, I remember. Why are we bringing this up? It’s disgusting.
Finn: It’s deranged.
Steffy: Okay, so what does this ridiculous bear attack have to do with deacon’s deranged syndrome?
Finn: Because deacon saw ten.
Steffy: Huh?
Finn: Ten toes.
Steffy: Wha– (vo) you might be used to living with your albuterol asthma
Carter: Okay, so let me get this straight. Luna cheated on rj with you?
Zende: Not in the way that you’re thinking. Do you remember that night? It wasn’t long after the ceremony. Luna took off.
Carter: Vaguely? She was tired or something?
Zende: Tired enough to want to go home. Only… she didn’t make it home. She only made it as far as across the courtyard.
Carter: You mean to the guest house?
Zende: Yeah. Carter, she ended up in my place.
Luna: You mentioned your grandfather’s wedding earlier.
Rj: Yeah, it was– it was after that that I just noticed something was different with you. I mean, you told me that you weren’t feeling well, so I just assumed that was the explanation.
Luna: Yeah, I definitely did not feel well the next day.
Rj: I mean, you said you were just tired at the wedding and you went home early.
Luna: I couldn’T… I couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me. I mean, I’d never felt that way before in my entire life.
Rj: What way?
Luna: Like– like not just tired, but also, like, woozy. Kind of like being drunk, but on a whole different level.
Rj: I mean, you couldn’t have been drunk, though. You had two or three glasses, small glasses of champagne. It couldn’t have been that.
Luna: Yeah, I barely drank.
Rj: I mean, you didn’t have much to eat before. It could have been that.
Luna: That’s true, but, um, that’s not the reason why I felt the way that I did.
Rj: So, you know the reason? You know what happened to you?
Luna: I do now.
Rj: Okay.
Luna: Um… my mother happened. My mother and her mints.
Steffy: Ten toes?
Finn: Yeah.
Steffy: What does that even mean? Is that something that deacon saw? Like, was he having hallucinations? Was he on something? This is crazy.
Finn: I don’t know. Like, after sheila’s memorial, deacon wanted to go with her to the crematorium.
Steffy: Oh, that’s weird.
Finn: Yeah, I know. I guess he just– he didn’t want her to be alone.
Steffy: Okay, faithful to the end.
Finn: Truly. So, but he went and watched the whole process, but that’s when it happened.
Steffy: What happened?
Finn: At some point, you know, when the body was being pushed in, the sheet slipped off a little bit. And, like, this can’t be true, so you don’t need to worry, but what deacon thinks he saw, just as the door closed, he noticed her feet. And if it was sheila, there should have been nine toes, right?
Steffy: Right.
Finn: Well, according to deacon, the body that was cremated had ten.
Deacon: Ridge was right. I’m going crazy. Rest in peace, beautiful girl. I saw you. I saw you with my own eyes. There’s no doubt about it. Then how could it…
[ Mechanical whirring ]
[ Fire roaring ] Ten toes. I saw them. Maybe I’m not going crazy. Maybe that wasn’t you. And if that wasn’t you, then maybe you’re out there. Maybe you need my help. It was one thing when my mom got alzheimer’s,
Carter: So luna, she kisses rj good night, says her goodbyes and ends up at your place? And when you get home, I’m assuming she’s still there, and that’S… that’s when you two… zende, look at me. What happened? Tell me.
Rj: Your mother’s mints? What…
Luna: Um, my mom takes these special mints to help soothe her anxiety. Or at least, she did. She claims that she doesn’t take them anymore, but…
Rj: They’re special and, like, they have drugs in them? For…
Luna: Exactly.
Rj: Okay.
Luna: And she kept these special mints in this tin. Um, it was a tin that looked enough like the tin that I put my mints in. My regular, everyday breath mints.
Rj: Oh, no.
Luna: And somehow, I still don’t know when or where, but on the day of the wedding, her tin ended up in my bag.
Rj: Oh, my god.
Luna: And… I don’t know if you remember, but that night I was feeling a little self-conscious about my breath, so I took quite a few.
Rj: You did. Oh, that– well, that explains why you were so tired and you wanted to go home early. You accidentally took drugs?
Luna: Yeah, and it’s something that I’ll regret for the rest of my life. I mean, I wish I never took any of my mom’s damn mints. Everything would be so different.
Rj: Diff– different how? Luna, did something happen after the party because you took those mints?
Luna: I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.
Steffy: Deacon’s losing it. Because there is no way that could happen. Like, no– wait, what did you say? You said her sheet slipped off?
Finn: Yeah, as the body was moving towards the flames, I guess there was some sort of little bump and the box that she was in dropped a little bit.
Steffy: And that’s when the sheet fell.
Finn: And revealed her feet.
Steffy: All ten toes.
Finn: He seemed pretty sure.
Steffy: Well, he’s wrong. Finn, you have to agree with me, right?
Finn: I’m just telling you what he told me, but he was right there. He watched her body going.
Steffy: I don’t care what deacon thinks. That was sheila.
Deacon: Let’s see what was going on, sheila. Check your emails. Work. Work. Pilates. Work. Spam. Let’s check your text messages. Who’s this? “How’d you get this number?” “Doesn’t matter.” “I’m gonna find you.” “Stay away from me, sugar!”
Finn: He’s pretty sure that he saw ten toes.
Steffy: Oh, god.
Finn: And that’s why he thinks that sheila may still be alive and that she could still be out there.
Deacon: Sugar… who the hell is sugar?
Announcer: Here’s a look ahead.
Lauren: I never wanna hear her name again.
Finn: Deacon’s in a bad place.
Steffy: He needs to stop this.
Rj: My cousin, you two…
Luna: I’m sorry! Rj, please.
Zende: Blame me. Don’t blame her.
Rj: I do blame you!
