Brooke: Oh, wow. You already beat me in, and you’ve done like a hundred things. It’s not a very good look for the newest executive.
Hope: Oh please, Mom, stop. I just, I happen to have early drop off with Beth today and I just wanted to take advantage of the time since I’ve been out. You know, while she had the flu.
Brooke: Okay, well, family always comes first. We know that. Uh, I didn’t get to finish talking to you about Finn yesterday. And I know what you said, but I am wondering if you’re really going to be able to fight those feelings.
Hope: Well, I have to.
Brooke: Yes, you do, because I can’t imagine the damage that could be done because of this misguided attraction.
Hope: Well, it is deeper than that, Mom. I mean, these feelings, Finn and I, we– we have a genuine friendship, and it’s a friendship that I would like to not risk destroying, so I will, um, I’ll just have to handle it.
Brooke: Come here. You’re doing the right thing.
Hope: Thank you.
Brooke: You are.
Hope: Mmm.
Ridge: What’s going on here?
Brooke: Oh! ♪♪
Tom: Hey, Deacon.
Deacon: Yeah.
Tom: Um, I want to make amends to you about yesterday. I mean, you’ve been really nice to me and I came at you with all that stuff about Sheila. Look, I don’t want to overstep. See, I genuinely care about you. See, you– you turned my life around. You gave me a job when I couldn’t get the world to make eye contact with me. And you see, that’s why I want to be the best possible employee I could be. I mean, I want to kick butt here. And, you know, that’s why I– I started looking on the internet.
Deacon: And you stumbled on some information about my new bride.
Tom: She’s got a colorful past, to say the least. I mean, the stuff I was reading about her, whew.
Deacon: Listen, Tom. It’s okay, all right? But it’s a conversation for another time. Right now, what I need you to do is go into the supply closet and here’s what– here’s what I’m going to need, and then I want you to make a list of the cleaning supplies that we need in there because I’m going to put an order in later today, okay? All right?
Tom: You got it, boss.
Deacon: All right, thanks.
Sheila: So? How are you liking your new employee?
Deacon: Well, I think– He’s a lot more pleasant than some of the customers.
Sheila: Oh. No, no, no, no. Not in my section today. I’m– I am not in the mood.
Deacon: You owe me. ♪♪ Well, hello, hello. I didn’t see you on the reservation list, Bill.
Poppy: Nozawa. Party of two? Um, your staff was kind enough to change our reservation from yesterday. Because something came up for Bill. You know what it’s like running a multi-billion dollar corporation. See?
Deacon: There it is. Uh, inside or outside?
Bill: Oh, Deacon, you know me. I’m easy. Well, that’s not entirely true. Anywhere but the homicidal maniac section. ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪
Deacon: So, how do you take it?
Bill: Black. And, uh, oat milk and agave for the lady.
Poppy: Very good.
Deacon: Okay, I’ll go get that, and your server will be over in a second to take your order.
Bill: What’s the smile for?
Poppy: You. This.
Bill: You made the reservation.
Poppy: No. I mean this existence I suddenly have. You’ve transformed my life, Bill. And my daughter’s. Our daughter’s. ♪♪
Ridge: There you go.
Brooke: Thank you.
Ridge: So, is this what you’re doing now? You’re going to come down on your daughter because you have a leadership position?
Brooke: No. I would never. Unless it was necessary. Which in this case, it’s not. Wouldn’t you agree?
Ridge: Oh, wow. That’s, um… can I– can I say one thing?
Hope: Well, I did already ask them to adjust the length.
Ridge: Good. Yeah, now that’s perfect. Still seems like I walked in on something. Is this, uh, Hope for the Future business, is that?
Hope: No, I– I am confident that our line will bounce back, and I am very grateful that we have the extra quarter to achieve that.
Ridge: Right, which is something my daughter didn’t agree with. So, is this it? Is this about Steffy?
Brooke: Uh… ♪♪
Poppy: I hope you know how happy I am.
Bill: You made that pretty clear this morning.
Poppy: I still have a ways to go to show you just how happy in that department.
Bill: Check, please.
Poppy: No, seriously. We have so much to be grateful for. To celebrate the family we’ve suddenly become. I meant what I said, Bill. You’ve transformed my life. And Luna’s.
Bill: You’ve transformed mine as well. You’ve given me a daughter, Poppy. I don’t have the words. I really don’t. A daughter. ♪♪
Ridge: So, what’s going on here? If this is about Steffy, then maybe I can help, and I should know about it.
Hope: Um, honestly, I don’t really think there is anything you can do to help. It’s, uh… I don’t know. I– I, yes, have been struggling with something, but I’m sure it’s nothing– nothing to do with whatever you’re thinking it is.
Ridge: Well, I’m thinking it’s Steffy, so it has nothing to do with that, is that– yeah?
Hope: Um, okay, fine. Um, honestly, I think I have been a little lost ever since Thomas and Douglas left, and it’s just, uh, left me questioning a lot of things.
Ridge: What things?
Hope: My feelings. I guess they– they’ve kind of been all over the place.
Ridge: Your feelings for Thomas, you mean?
Hope: Uh, I– I don’t– Um, I don’t really know. I don’t really want to get into it. Just know that it– it is not going to affect my work.
Ridge: Good, like to hear that. Listen, you’re lucky you have your mom to lean on, but if you ever want a man’s opinion, I’m– I’m here too. You can talk to me.
Hope: Well, thank you for that.
Ridge: You’re welcome. It is none of my business, but I don’t know how it ended with you and Thomas. I don’t, I don’t know what happened, really, but… I know that boy loved you. Loved you very much. ♪♪
Tom: We got Caesar salad.
Deacon: All right.
Tom: We got garlic bread.
Deacon: Okay.
Tom: And three orders of toe hors d’oeuvres. I mean, I can’t believe that that became such a big hit.
Deacon: You know, after the wedding, I put ’em on the menu. People cannot get enough of them.
Tom: Toes. You know, it just kind of freaks me out to think that Sheila cut off one of her own toes to fake a bear attack.
Deacon: Well, I guess she did what she had to do, right?
Tom: I guess. I– maybe. You know, it– it just doesn’t seem like something a mentally stable person would– would do. Hang on a second. Oh, crap. It’s the wine distributor. This guy. I — mmm, he is such a pain in the butt. I– I gotta take this. Uh, can you get a pitcher of water and just fill everyone’s glass, please? I gotta deal with this.
Tom: I got it, boss.
Deacon: No, no. I do not–
Sheila: Are you serious? Stability? ♪♪
Sheila: We really do appreciate everything that you’re doing for us.
Tom: It’s my pleasure.
Sheila: And you’re– you’re well liked. I mean, so far. But you wouldn’t want to do anything or– or say anything to change that, would you?
Deacon: Tom, Tom. Water. Now. Come on.
Tom: Duty calls.
Deacon: Zinfandel? Gewurztraminer? ♪♪
Bill: Adorable. What’d you say? She was around ten?
Poppy: Mm-hmm. I took Luna and two of her friends to the community pool. She had so much fun. That girl could not stop begging me to take her swimming.
Bill: Well, I have some good news for you. You’re living with me now, and Luna has a couple of pools on the estate.
Poppy: Thank goodness. You know, I think I’ll start planning her next birthday now. Maybe even allow three of her friends.
Bill: Three? Wow.
Poppy: Mm-hmm.
Tom: Uh, more water?
Poppy: Yes, please.
Bill: Wow, seriously.
Tom: Oh! Oh, I’m sorry.
Poppy: Oh, no, don’t worry about it. Look, spills happen.
Tom: Oh–
Poppy: Uh, thank you. That’s, uh, that’s fine. Um… A little privacy, please.
Tom: Um, yeah. Yeah, of course. I’m sorry.
Bill: Deacon can’t even hire a decent busboy. Poppy? Poppy?
Poppy: Hmm? Yes?
Bill: You with me?
Poppy: Yes, I’m– I’m right here. ♪♪
Ridge: I’m not trying to hurt your feelings. It’s just, um, I know my son. I know that how he felt for you was genuine. He thought you guys had a future together. That’s all.
Brooke: Hope wasn’t ready to commit to marriage. Not so soon after ending things with Liam.
Ridge: I get that. And I’m not– Yes, I get it. I’m just trying to find a connection. She’s not feeling well, and it kind of started when Thomas left, so I thought maybe deep down, you thought maybe you made the wrong choice.
Hope: Uh, I’m– I’m not sure how deep down everything has been. I feel like it’s been pretty out in the open. Thomas was fully aware that I was not all right with them leaving. And he knows how I feel about him. And I wanted our relationship to continue, but he needed something more. A marriage. And it didn’t feel right to accept a proposal that I wasn’t ready for.
Ridge: Okay, no, I– I agree with that. I’m sorry. I do. I agree with that. I’m just trying to help you find some peace.
Hope: Well, I’ve been trying to. For some time now, I’m sorry, Mom. I’ve been keeping it in. Um, no, I’ve been trying and I guess it’s been a little harder than I let on. With Thomas and Douglas gone, it’s just been, um, yeah, I’ve been struggling, Ridge, lately. Probably more than people realize.
Ridge: So, what are you doing? Are you reconsidering? Are you…
Hope: I’m still not ready for marriage. I’m just not. To anyone. Anyone. But if and when I am, at least I will have known Thomas’ love, and what it was like to be with someone who only had eyes for me, and… I’m the better for it. Because I will never settle for less than that ever again. ♪♪
Sheila: No more spills?
Tom: I don’t want to talk right now.
Sheila: Yeah, well you know what? I do. I want to know exactly what it is that you think is so terrible about me. I heard you, Tom. I heard you talking to Deacon. And– and regardless of what you read on the internet, there are two sides to every story.
Tom: Yeah, I get that.
Sheila: Well, you want to survive around here? Then, it’s my side you need to be on. ♪♪
Tom: I don’t want to get off on the wrong foot with you.
Sheila: But you have.
Tom: But– but you just got to admit, it– it’s rather surprising.
Sheila: No, you know what is surprising? Me overhearing somebody badmouth me to my husband. Don’t ever do that again. Okay, I– I may have had a colorful past, but it was my past, and it stays there. It’s none of your business. You got me, Tom?
Tom: Yeah, Sheila. Of course. ♪♪
Ridge: Did I cross a line? I– I didn’t mean to.
Brooke: With Hope?
Ridge: Yeah, just bringing up Thomas, and I don’t want her thinking that I’m blaming her. I’m not. Just… she said she felt lost. She looked lost.
Brooke: Yeah. She’s just dealing with a lot right now.
Ridge: More than missing Thomas? I’m doing it again, right? I’m — I’m prying. I don’t, I’m sorry. I don’t…
Brooke: I– I have my concerns about my daughter, but we talked about things and worked through some things. I– I think I got through to her.
Ridge: Of course you did. ‘Cause that’s what you do. You get through to people. It’s one of your talents. And that’s why I hired you.
Brooke: Actually, I think you hired me because you wanted to see me here more often.
Ridge: What? Silly. I do what’s best for the company and, ah, you’re right.
Brooke: Aw.
Ridge: Yes. ♪♪
Thomas: I’ve told you this before, and I will tell you again: I am a one-woman man.
Thomas: Hello, Hope. ♪♪
Steffy: Here’s a look at what’s ahead…
Tom: Pizza delivery, Poppy.
Poppy: What are you doing here?
Thomas: I’m glad I finally found someone who wants the same things as me.
Hope: What is going on here?
Thomas: Paris and I are engaged. We’re gonna be married.
