[somber music plays] What more could you possibly tell me about Luna? She’s your daughter…with Poppy and she lied to you about it for years. But this is about Luna… and where she is right now. LUNA: I’ve always loved you. I always looked up to you. You were my cool older cousin, and you always made me feel so safe and seen. I can’t think of a better man than you. And now, to know that you’re my father, I mean, this is more than I could have ever wished for. BILL: Are you crying? What is it, Luna? What’s wrong? I still can’t believe that Luna Nozawa’s Finn’s daughter. Steffy’s already been through so much. I mean, when is it gonna end? When is she gonna have a normal, sane life? I know. What I’m worried about… what if Finn feels he has some kind of obligation to Luna, you know? Even if she’s in prison, he’s gonna try and do things for her, help her any way he can, and… it’s gonna hang over his marriage. -It’s not gonna go away. -Yeah, this could end up destroying what Steffy and Finn have together, no matter how hard they try not to let it. [somber music plays] HOPE: Be honest with me. Hell, be honest with yourself. You’ve developed feelings for him, haven’t you? And I’ll do you the favor. I won’t draw this out. Uh, I saw you. I saw you kissing Carter. [heavy music plays] Oh, in the CEO office. You and Carter. With the door open for anyone to walk in and see you kissing him. How could you do that, knowing… He’s the love of your life. Yes. Something that you’ve been aware of from day one. Oui. Yet, that didn’t stop you from making a move. I shouldn’t have done that. Just like you shouldn’t have convinced Carter to steal Forrester Creation from Ridge… Carter’s best friend. You heard Steffy. She hasn’t given up on Finn, even with all this stuff going on. I know, but I-I still think we were right trying to convince her to come here with the kids and stay here with us at Eric’s. And I think Steffy sees that, but then there’s a whole other part where she wants to face everything with Finn because they love each other so much. We know how much they love each other, more than ever. But Finn is asking Steffy to accept things that no wife should ever have to accept. I just–I just wanna know that she’s safe. Her and the kids. She is safe because–I don’t know if I mentioned this before, but Luna is actually in prison. I realize that that should be really comforting to me, but the fact remains that Finn has two dangerous, psychopathic family members. Hayes has a grandmother and half-sister who– I just hope our little grandson never has to know who Luna is or that she even exists. Luna, what happened? You can talk to me. You gotta know that by now. There’s nothing you can say that will shock me. STEFFY: We know where Luna is right now. She’s in prison paying for her crimes. God, I-I can’t even fathom that… that Luna’s even related to you. I mean, you’ve never done a cruel thing in your life, -but Luna, she’s– -Well, she could never catch a break, Steffy. Her life has been in constant turmoil. Finn, you’re not responsible for that. You didn’t know she was yours. No. But now that I do… [sighs] That’s what I need to talk to you about. What happens now. [uneasy music plays] [laughs] I-I am… impressed by the audacity. You knew that Carter was in a committed relationship, and yet, you kissed him anyway. -I was wrong. -Yes, you were. But instead, you wanna make this about Carter and I taking over Forrester Creations. Carter’s conscience is weighing on him. The fact that you haven’t noticed, or have, but can’t admit it to yourself– Okay, stop. Stop. What we are going to do is turn this around on me when you are the one– Who crossed a line. Yes. And I’ve admitted that. But what about you, Hope? You say that you care about Carter– I do care about him. Who are you to question that? Obviously, he’s very important to you. So let me ask you something, mon cher. Have you listened to him? Like really listened? Because if you had, you would realize that he isn’t happy with what the two of you have done. It’s just…it’s just too much to put on Steffy. Yes, it’s a shock to Finn too, but what he’s asking of her, of their marriage… Yeah. Most wives would have bolted already. -[softly] Yeah. -But not Steffy. She stands by her man. She’s one of the strongest people we know. But even the strongest people– -Strongest people break. Yes. -Yeah. She’s just going through so much right now, you know? Dealing with everything at Forrester, and then Finn’s latest discovery. I know she’s determined not to let it affect her family. That’s a lot of pressure and stress. Oh. Yeah. And don’t get me wrong–I don’t blame Finn. I love how he loves our daughter. But he’s just bringing dangerous people into Steffy’s life. Luna’s just the latest. You’re always so worried about me, how I’m doing, how I’m feeling. Well, I feel a responsibility, -as your– -Jailer? [both laugh] I hope you don’t see me that way. No. Of course not. You saved me from a life behind bars. From brutal beatings and, worst of all, no hope. I’m forever gonna be grateful to you for that. You know, uh… I did have some…trepidation about this working. Could I trust you? But so far, so good. I think. You think? Well, when I walked in here and saw you emotional, it reminded me how much we opened up to each other but that there still might be some things you wanna share with me… …but haven’t -yet. -Uh… let’s just say that for once in my life, I feel like I have a… real shot at a future. One where I can reconnect with my family. [moody music plays] “What happens now”? To be honest, Finn, I’ve barely started to process what happened, much less… work through how I feel. It’s a lot. [sighs] I know. For me too. Yeah, especially for you. But like I told my parents, I’m not going anywhere. We’re gonna face this together. It’s not gonna be easy, but… God, I’m just… I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. I just–I feel awful. And I’m just–I… I’ve upset you and… I’ve turned your life… upside down again. I’m sorry. Oh, babe. FINN: [whispers] God. [somber music plays] You…know…nothing about what Carter and I share. Of course, I listen to him. Then you should know how tormented he is about what he’s done. What he’s done is revitalize this company, tapped into its true potential. You’re proud of him for it. As well as you should be. Carter’s a remarkable businessman. Yes, he is. And you’re no longer fired. You’ve benefitted. Hope for the Future is back. What are you implying, Daphne? Are you implying that I’m using Carter? Finn and the kinda guy he is, I-I bet he woulda done anything -to spare Steffy. -I know. I know. He cherishes Steffy and their life together. If it weren’t for Sheila and Luna– They’d be walking around LA, this beautiful couple, not worrying about anything, just living their life instead of this siege. An attack on their relationship. Another test that they have to overcome. Why do Steffy and Finn have to be tested over and over again? They deserve some peace. It’s– God knows it’s long overdue. But at least she has us to lean on. We’ll keep her safe. And so will Finn. As long as he doesn’t let Luna get into his head like Sheila did. Then again…maybe she won’t, because you’re right. She’s in jail for the rest of her life. You know how they say your life can change in an instant? When you least expect it, something can happen and suddenly everything’s so different? Well, that’s kind of how it was for you, right, when you thought I was your father? Well, yeah, this whole new world opened up to me… until the truth came out and… I lost control. I couldn’t deal. But…I’m thinking of something else now. Someone else. Who? I know that it seems impossible, -but what if it’s not true? -What if what’s not true? What if my mom isn’t my only living parent? What if my father is out there, waiting for me? STEFFY: I’m trying, Finn. I really am. And as much as I wanna be a supporting, loving wife, this whole thing with Luna is… it’s incredibly hard. I know. And again, I’m so sorry. If I could spare you from this, I would. No, no, no, no, this isn’t you, Finn. This is all Poppy. She’s to blame. She took advantage of you, lying to you when she turned up pregnant. And I’m so sorry that you had to deal with something like that. And now here you are, left with the shocking realization that you have an adult daughter and it’s the same woman who tried to kill me, your wife. [somber music plays] You’re accusing me of using Carter. You’ve gotten everything you wanted… ever since Carter went against his nature, stole Forrester Creation from his best friend. You know who you’re starting to sound like? Steffy. She has used those exact words against me numerous times. Ha. And you couldn’t be more wrong about me. Was I, uh, humiliated at how my line was canceled, at how I was fired, at how I was paraded around in front of my coworkers to– to humiliate me? Yes, yes, I was. But that is because Steffy had a vendetta. So if you are going to accuse me of running after Carter and pretending to care about him… …you’d be wrong. Do not take my love and twist it to fit your warped narrative. I care about that man more than you know. So you… are not going to make another play for him. Tu comprends? [tense music plays] You know what? I’d be more worried if Luna wasn’t in jail. But knowing that she can’t hurt Steffy again… it helps me to rest a little easier. We all can. We can all rest. Especially Steffy. -Your father’s waiting for you? -[laughs] Yes. Okay, Luna, look, I-I know you don’t wanna believe that Tom Starr’s your father and you say that you feel it in your bones– I do. I always have. And for once in my life, I know without a doubt that I’m right. LUNA: I still can’t believe this is happening. All I know is that my father is here now. After a lifetime of wondering, I finally have a dad and… I couldn’t have picked a more loving, caring dad than you, Finn. [emotional music plays] I already asked so much of you… your understanding most of all, and to ask more would be… Finn, none of this is your fault. What happened with Luna is not…your fault. She wanted me out of the way. She locked me in the cage and left me in a building that was gonna be demolished. -Help. Help me! -I thought I was gonna die. Help me! I’m in here. I was gonna be buried in the rubble, and no one would ever find me. As hard as I try not to think about it, it– It still haunts me. I think like… what if Luna succeeded? I wouldn’t be able to see you again or Kelly or Hayes. And I thank God… I thank God that… that never happened… because of you. You saved me. [intense music swells] Oh, please get me out of here. Thank God I found you. I got you, okay? Your love saved me. So I don’t… I don’t blame you for being Luna’s father. I don’t blame you for being Sheila’s son. Do I wish it weren’t true? Yeah. – [Finn chuckles] -I wish they never came into our lives, but… I’m sure this is incredibly hard for you. And I know this is really confusing for you… to know that you have an adult daughter. -Yeah. -Finn. If it were anybody but Luna– anyone… I know she’s your daughter. But can we just… get Luna out of our minds? She’s locked up in prison. We don’t have to deal with her. I don’t wanna–I don’t wanna think or talk about her ever again. Can we do that? Please? [whispers] Please. [intense music plays] Captioned by Los Angeles Distribution and Broadcasting, Inc.
