Steffy: You were at sheila’s wedding?
Finn: By accident. Okay, I was picking up the pizzas from il giardino.
Steffy: And deacon and sheila just happened to be getting married?
Finn: Yeah. Steffy, I had no idea it was going on. The ceremony was supposed to be at the beach.
Steffy: You weren’t just there, finn. You were part of the ceremony.
Liam: Well, I know how you used to feel about sheila, and now she’s your stepmom, so that’s fun.
Hope: Ooh, yes, definitely not my first choice. But she is my dad’s, so I– I have to support him.
Liam: Correction. You don’t have to support him. You’re choosing to support him, ’cause that’s the kind of daughter that you are and he is beyond lucky to have you.
Hope: I don’t know. You know, the weird thing is, they seem really, really happy together.
Liam: Gross. You know what the weird thing is to me? That finn showed up. What, is he out of his mind?
Rj: So, I’ve done the math. We have about 98 more kisses to make up for, okay?
Luna: I hated every second away from you, rj?
Rj: Not as much as me.
Luna: I’m just– I’m really glad that we were able to work through everything because it’s been so hard.
Rj: Yeah. On both of us. Which reminds me, how are, um, how are you and your mom doing?
Poppy: Bill and I go way back.
Bill: Way, way back.
Katie: Yeah, yeah. Twenty years. That’s a long time to be friends.
Bill: Yeah, poppy and I lost touch for a while.
Poppy: Yeah, and then we just happened to run into each other again.
Bill: Totally unexpected. I was grabbing some lunch, and then there she was.
Poppy: Fate brought us back together again for a reason. Gave us a chance to reconnect.
Luna: Yeah, I wish things were back to normal with my mom, but, you know, we’re trying to get to a better place, but i honestly haven’t seen that much of her recently. She’s been hanging out with bill spencer. I’m starting to think that she’s really falling for him.
Katie: So, how did you two meet?
Bill: We met at a music festival in the bay area.
Katie: A music festival?
Bill: Ah, here we go. Yeah, a music festival. Why is that so weird?
Katie: Um, I’m just trying to visualize dollar bill grooving it up in the grass.
Bill: Oh, well, you just– you take all the time you need. Uh, the fact is that poppy caught my eye. And here we are, some 20 odd years later, back in each other’s lives.
Katie: Well, that must’ve been one hell of a night.
Liam: Look, I’m not here to give you a hard time.
Hope: Oh, I would appreciate it if you didn’T. Besides, you probably won’t get where I’m coming from.
Liam: I mean, I rarely agree with my father, but he’s still my dad, so I kind of do.
Hope: Yeah, it’s just my dad and I were estranged for so long, and I just– I don’t want to go back to that.
Liam: I know your reason for feeling obliged to be there kinda at least makes some sense. Finn is a whole different story.
Steffy: What were you thinking? What, you just happened to stumble upon their ceremony?
Finn: Yeah. Now, look, I told you, I had no clue it was even taking place.
Steffy: Why wouldn’t you just take the pizza and leave?
Finn: They weren’t ready.
Steffy: So, you just stayed around and participated?
Finn: Look, I just– I– I don’t know. I didn’t know what to do.
Steffy: Well, you gave sheila exactly what she wanted. How could you do that?
Rj: So, poppy’s actually falling for bill?
Luna: Yeah, that’s the vibe I’m getting.
Rj: I mean, well, I can’t say I’m surprised. I mean, they’ve been on a ton of dates recently. I mean, what– what makes you think it’s gotten more serious?
Luna: Well, is it that serious for him? It’s hard to tell, but…
Rj: Luna, come on. Poppy’s this pretty, creative, smart– I mean, she’s all the good things. I mean, why wouldn’t bill be into her? Come on.
Luna: My mom’s always been super popular with guys, but it’s always been casual. I mean, my mom’s focus has always been the two of us, you know? Nozawa power. But I’ve noticed like this change in her recently.
Rj: Because of bill spencer?
Bill: Well, I’m sure you’d rather not discuss my love life, katie.
Katie: Oh, I don’t mind if you don’t mind.
Bill: No, it’s not awkward for me. I don’t want you to be uncomfortable.
Katie: I don’t feel uncomfortable. I mean, you don’t have to explain anything to me. You haven’t had to do that in a long time. I’m just– I can see how happy you both are and– and as soon as I walked in here, I could tell that you had become close.
Bill: Poppy and luna have become a very important part of my life.
Katie: That’s good. I’m happy for both of you. I’m gonna take off. And, uh, truly, um, good luck.
Bill: Thanks, katie.
Poppy: It was lovely to meet you.
Katie: Yeah, same.
Bill: I’ll walk you out.
Liam: You know, he could’ve put his wife and his family first, but instead, he went with the not that option.
Hope: To be fair, sheila did kind of guilt finn into staying.
Liam: And he caved. Which tells me that if steffy asks finn for one thing, and sheila asks finn for the opposite thing, finn goes sheila.
Hope: Finn had no idea they were going to be at il giardino.
Liam: So what? So what? Let’s say it was dumb luck that he goes to pick up dinner and he just accidentally crashes his mom’s big day. What did he not do? Make a beeline for the door like any sane, rational, ethical human being. Instead, he stayed for the celebration.
Hope: Oh, my gosh, that is not how it happened. Finn felt deeply, deeply uncomfortable being there.
Liam: Yeah, I know. It’s uncomfortable when you directly disobey your wife’s wishes. She’s gonna be pissed.
Steffy: Were you planning on saying anything?
Finn: Of course, I was.
Steffy: When? Before or after the photo was posted?
Finn: I was just about to tell you, honey. And then you got the photo notification.
Steffy: Yeah, that photo just makes me sick.
Finn: I’m– I’m sorry you found out that way.
Steffy: So am I.
Finn: It was poor judgment on my part.
Steffy: Yeah. I asked you one thing. One. To not associate yourself with sheila. And what did you do? What did I just see? I see a picture of the two of you at her wedding.
Bill: You like it?
Poppy: A girl could get used to this.
Bill: Well, you ought to spend more time here.
Poppy: I’d love to.
Bill: I was also thinking we should take a little trip together.
Poppy: Hm.
Bill: Maybe the south of france. Monte carlo.
Poppy: Oh. Well, I’m gonna have to check my schedule.
Bill: Hm. Okay, you do that. You check your schedule. I’ve already been talking to my captain.
Poppy: Your captain?
Bill: I wanna take you on my yacht.
Poppy: You have a yacht? Like an actual yacht?
Bill: An actual yacht, yeah. The stella maris. Here, wait a minute. Ah, all right, take a look.
Poppy: Oh, wow. Uh, she’s yours?
Bill: Mm-hmm. All mine. What do you think?
Poppy: She’s beautiful, bill.
Bill: Yeah. She is beautiful. But not as beautiful as you. Something wrong?
Poppy: It was just meeting katie.
Bill: Yeah, I’m sorry about that. She has a tendency just to pop in. I– I guess she likes to talk about things in person. Like the parents weekend.
Poppy: Oh no, she’s fine. I mean, she was really lovely. She couldn’t have been sweeter, actually. But she was also intimidating.
Bill: Because she’s my ex?
Poppy: That, and she’s so accomplished and impressive. She’s so smart, stylish, pretty. It makes me wonder.
Bill: Wonder what?
Poppy: Why you weren’t together anymore. What happened between the two of you?
Bill: Uh, that is a very long story and I would just truthfully rather not get into it.
Poppy: Well, I just couldn’t imagine being married to you and then letting you go.
Hope: I don’t wanna lose my dad again. But that does not mean that I condone everything that he’s doing. I mean, believe me, this– this has not been easy for me.
Liam: Okay, well, there you go. I understand that you’re– you’re under a lot of pressure and this is complicated for you, but can we circle back one more time to the no sheila and beth in the same place at the same time? Can we just agree?
Hope: Yes, I understand, liam. But, food for thought, sheila did fight sugar to try to protect steffy and the kids. So maybe, just maybe, she is capable of change.
Liam: Ugh, now you’re really starting to sound like finn.
Finn: Look, I just– I don’t like seeing you upset.
Steffy: I can’t understand how you keep putting yourself in these situations.
Finn: Oh, but look, this was a total coincidence, okay? I had no intention.
Steffy: Of what? Being a member of the wedding party?
Finn: No, and it wasn’t like that.
Steffy: No, it was just the two of you. You and hope. You guys were the only guests. And now this photo of you, sheila and deacon, it’s on the internet for everyone to see.
Finn: Hey, I’m sorry. Is there anything I can do to make this right?
Steffy: You just have to learn to say no.
Finn: Okay, yeah. Honestly, you’re right. That’s exactly what I should’ve done. I should have just done a 180 and got out of there.
Steffy: Finn, this can’t– this can’t keep happening. I told you over and over again to stay away from sheila. And I hate to say it, but you– you let me down, again.

Luna: My mom and I have always been so close. I mean, I know her better than anyone. And I am positive that she’s falling in love with bill.
Rj: How do you feel about that?
Luna: I’d be supportive.
Rj: Hm.
Luna: I mean, bill’s been nothing but kind to me. Sometimes, I kind of wish he was my dad.
Poppy: It’s funny, we only spent that one night together, but I don’t think you realize how much it meant to me, bill. Even more than I realized at the time.
Bill: In hindsight, I wish that I hadn’t been so totally engrossed in my business. That I had reached out, tried to find you. Gone on that second date instead of waiting two decades.
Poppy: I wish you had too.
Bill: It’ll always be a big regret of mine.
Poppy: I was heartbroken.
Bill: Sorry for hurting you, poppy.
Poppy: You know, it’s crazy. Our lives went in such different directions. And, you know, if only we could go back and do it over again and not spend all those years apart. The difference it would’ve made.
Bill: Poppy, with everything you’re saying, I have to ask.
Poppy: Ask what?
Bill: Is there any chance at all that luna is my daughter? Do you know who luna’s father is? Could it be me?
Poppy: Yes, bill. It could be you. You might be luna’s father.
Hope: We don’t get to choose our biological parents. I mean, it’s not finn’s fault.
Liam: Does finn really not understand how much he’s undermining his marriage? How much he’s putting his family at risk with this whole connection to sheila? I mean, you, you’re you. I can’t, you know, if you wanna have a relationship with deacon and sheila, that’s fine. That’s your choice. I can’t stop you. Once again, though, the kids.
Hope: Yes, I– I heard you and beth will not be around them.
Liam: Thank you. Just be careful, okay? Because I don’t want you putting yourself in danger either. Sheila is dangerous and I don’t want you to listen to anyone who tries to tell you otherwise, including and especially finn.
Hope: Great talk.
Finn: I’m sorry for letting you down. You know, obviously my interactions with sheila are making you feel unsafe.
Steffy: You don’t make me feel unsafe. But staying at deacon and sheila’s wedding, like that is, that was the wrong move.
Finn: Okay, yeah. Look, I’m sorry, but you gotta understand, like, today– today was random. Okay, it was the last thing I expected. And I just– I didn’t– I don’t know, man. I just– I didn’t know what to do.
Steffy: You knew exactly what to do.
Finn: Look, I’m not making any excuses, but I was in a weird spot.
Steffy: How many times do i have to tell you this? You need to stay away from sheila. I don’t care that she’s your mother. I don’t want you to have a relationship with her.
Sheila: Finn, I– I’ve been given a second chance. Thank god, my son, thank god.
[ Kelly coughing ] Thank you, finn, for– for being at my wedding, baby. I love you.
Steffy: How many times do I have to say it? You need to stay away from sheila. I don’t care if she’s your mother. You can’t have a relationship with her.
Hope: I– I know you’re a little nervous about how steffy’s gonna react to this, but I don’t know if she should be the one dictating what your relationship looks like to your birth mother. I mean, maybe that should be up to you.
