[mellow instrumentals] You sure you’re okay with this? Well, I can’t stay here, hiding from the fact that Luna’s your daughter, so… It’s just, it’s…something important I need to handle. Yeah, yeah. Go save some lives. Sheila turned our life into pure chaos, and we got through it. We’ll do the same with Luna, okay? Together. You’re my entire world. [downbeat music plays] Well, today all eyes will be on you, Daphne. ZENDE: Noses, too. Influencers and buyers will be receiving fragrance samples as soon as we’re ready to go live. And you’ll both be at the office for the launch, yes? -Yes. -Hope and Carter -want all hands on deck. -And I’m certain the line will be a great success. I agree. Forrester’s very lucky to be collaborating with you. Not so lucky for us, though. You know, this is just gonna reinforce Carter’s belief that stealing the company was the right thing to do. Dad, I don’t think he’s reveling in this. I assure you, he’s not. I think he’s finally waking up to the fact that Hope brainwashed him. [lightly edgy music plays] CARTER: When I thought of the moment of my ideas taking this company to the next level, of making an impact here, I never thought I’d be doing it without you, without my brother. HOPE: Hey. What’s going on? [edgy music plays] You didn’t hear me come in? No. No, sorry. My, uh, my mind was somewhere else. Hopefully getting excited for the big launch. Where’s, uh, where’s Daphne? I thought you two would be getting prepped -for the big countdown. -I haven’t seen her yet today. That’s cutting it pretty close. Wonder where she could be. I spent a lot of time with Carter on this launch. So you’re in agreement that he’s been coerced by Hope -into this whole thing? -He’s starting to see it. He misses your family, Eric. And your friendship. Carter’s still the good man you once knew and respected. Speaking of our new boss, we should go into the office. Yeah. We’ll be watching from here. Once Hope loses her hold on Carter, I will see your friend and your company returned to you. [quiet music plays] STEFFY: Poppy took advantage of you years ago. You just found out you have a child with her and… you know who it is. So who is it? I need to know. Who? Luna’s father is me. [dramatic musical sting] Luna’s your daughter? No! [gasping] No! TAYLOR: Steffy? Honey? What is it? What’s wrong? [edgy music plays] [door opens] Dr. Finnegan. Hello again. I need to see Luna Nozawa. I’m not taking no for an answer. [dramatic music plays] I don’t think Carter’s happy with all this success. -How can you be so sure of that? -I’m not sure of it. But you heard with Zende said. The jewelry line dropped and no one was happy other than Hope. It’s gonna be the same thing with the fragrance line. The fragrance line has a lot of positive feedback online. Okay, let’s have a look. Dad, Carter is rethinking this takeover. -I’m sure of it. -[sighs] -Come on. -Right. -Are you nervous? -[chuckling] I’m always nervous before a drop. But our collaboration with Daphne, it almost guarantees a hit, so… -I’m fine. -[door opens] -Bonjour. -[Hope gasps] Oh! Excited? It’s the grande event. Yes! Daphne, thank goodness you’re here. -We almost started to worry. -No, no, no. No worries today. Well, we have marketing and sales on standby at the ready. And Katie has I.T. on standby as well, make sure that everything goes smoothly. Good. We’re all set to launch. Everyone here? Everyone who wants to be. What’s important… we’re here for each other. This collaboration could signal a real change in things, and if it succeeds… …who knows what can happen? Sweetheart. I can see that you’re struggling with something. You’re not wrong. I’m just still trying to figure out the words, how to-how to say this. That bad? It’s bad. -Is it about the kids? -No, no, no. It’s not about Kelly or Hayes. But it does have something to do with children. [moody music plays] I just don’t see it. Someone else out there has to be my father. I came here for answers. I’m not leaving without ’em. Dr. Finnegan, I told you last time Luna Nozawa’s not currently in this facility. -She’s incarcerated. -Yes. -Well, tell me where. -I’m not authorized -to give you that information. -Then find me someone who is. I need to see Luna–now. I’m her father. [dramatic percussive music] -I’m sorry. You said– -I’m Luna’s father. It’s my understanding that she was convicted of– Killing the man she thought was her father. I know, but that’s wrong. I’m her father. -[exhales] -And Luna needs to be told, and I need to be the one that tells her–not in a letter, not in a phone call. Do you understand? I need to see her. Luna Nozawa isn’t here. She’s…currently under house arrest. She’s under house arrest? What do you mean? How could she be–what house? W–okay, I’ve spoken with her mother–she’s not there. -This doesn’t make any sense. -I’ve already said more than I should. Wait. Hey, hey! Hey, hold on. Where are you, Luna? Who is my father? Our marketing team is still top notch. -The Forrester fragrance. -Hmph. This product drop has been sensational–it really has. Daphne’s right. Gonna make a lotta money for our company. I should be happy about that. Look at me. I’m rooting against my own team. -CARTER: Thank you. -This is… -[electronic chime] -…very promising. Wait. There’s another update. [gasps] Look at those numbers! Initial sales are crushing projections. You wanted a hit. That’s what I gave you. ZENDE: Daphne Rose and Forrester Creations are trending, and Katie just wrote that we have incoming requests from the fashion and the business press. We made financial news? They’re calling this collaboration an inspired, brilliant move. I agree with them. This is it, Carter. The jewelry relaunch– that wasn’t just a one-off. Ridge, Steffy, Eric– they didn’t have the vision. You did, and this proves it. It proves that this was the right thing to do, that taking over the company was what was best. TAYLOR: Children? A child–sweetheart, are you pregnant? What? No, no. I’m not pregnant. But there has been an addition to our family. A very unwelcome addition. [uneasy music plays] No, that’s–that’s not it. [phone chimes] Bill Spencer’s. Well, there you have it. Fragrance line is a success. How am I supposed to feel about that? You are supposed to feel relieved. Because when we take over the company– and we will take over the company– -it won’t be a complete wreck. -And what if it is? -What if it is? -It won’t be. ‘Cause the days of Hope and Carter at Forrester are numbered. Thank you. Ha. That’s very nice of you to say. And she already has interviews lined up for you, Daphne. -That’s merveilleux. -CARTER: Arrivederci. Yeah, I’m getting requests as well. Well, get ready for more. Katie said she wants to capitalize -on the success of the launch. -The momentum is gonna be awesome. -You did a great job, Daphne. -Merci, Zende. I’m very proud. The House of Forrester is being celebrated across the industry. There are successes being lauded around the globe, truly, and it is all thanks to your innovative ideas and progressive leadership. I, uh, I-I don’t know what to say. Ha ha. Well, I would love to stay and celebrate, but we’ve got a Hope for the Future meeting. Daphne, congratulations again. You are deserving of all of the accolades. Your fragrances are magnifique. -Thank you. -And you… -We’ll celebrate later. -[chuckles] [softly] Okay? Hope and Zende are right, Daphne. Your-your fragrances are the stars of today. You gave them a fantastic launch. It was a team effort. You really don’t want any applause. You should be on top of the world, Carter, but you don’t look like someone who wants to celebrate. We both know why. You can talk to me. I’ll listen. I care. TAYLOR: You’re not making sense. No, nothing about this is making sense, Mom. I’m gonna need more if you want my help. Look, I’m trying to be strong right now. I just– There’s a lot going on, and I don’t… -Look, I don’t know if– -Okay, okay. -Okay, okay, okay. Hold on. -What? -Slow down. -Okay. Take a deep breath. -[inhales] -Start from the beginning. Okay, um… I could sense something was going on with Finn. I, uh… I thought it was work, you know. He seemed really distracted and, um, you know, he’s just been– he’s been really busy, even before our anniversary and, uh… So I remember our night, our anniversary, he-he said there was something I needed to know, but he didn’t really wanna get into it, and then… and then he was-he was busy after that. [sighs] And then we were finally alone, and… I brought it up to him, I… I tried to get him to open up and be honest with me. Was he? Yeah. There was something on his mind. It’s about his past, a woman from way back. Another woman. It was a long time ago, Mom. He was… Finn was taken advantage of. He was only 18. She was older. Um… She was his first. You’re not gonna believe it when I tell you who it is. You’re not. -I know this person? -Mm-hmm. Who? Who was it? Who was he with back then? Poppy. -Poppy. -Yeah. His Aunt…Poppy? I-I-I– I mean, I know they’re not biologically related. He’s adopted. But still… Mom, that’s not even the worst of it. [knock on door] Maybe Dario’s back. Cousin Finn. Luna. I’m sorry, okay? I am so, so sorry for what I’ve done. [intense music plays] [somber instrumentals] Captioned by Los Angeles Distribution and Broadcasting, Inc.
