[quiet music plays] Katie and I were discussing it over lunch. Apparently, Ridge and Steffy wanna tie in the fragrance and jewelry line into the couture line. Mom, I… I appreciate what you are trying to do and making it feel like everything is back to normal when we both know that it’s not. So if it’s okay, I’d rather not talk about how your day was at work. I really don’t wanna hear about Ridge or Steffy or the Forresters, especially not after what they did to me. So… [moody music plays] What do you–what do you mean, why am I– -I get to be upset about this. -It doesn’t concern you. No, it actually does. It actually does concern me because people keep asking me questions that I can’t answer about your decision-making. You– Okay, so you let Luna out of prison. You had a convicted murderer living in your home. I’m just asking– what is wrong with you? I know what you were doing, Luna– coming on to Will, my boyfriend. Okay. I don’t appreciate the aggressive behavior in my home. She’s the one being aggressive. -You should be very careful. -Sheila. Grandma. Maybe Electra and I should discuss this on our own. You just remember where you are and who you’re dealing with. There’s nothing to talk about. I’m here to put you on notice to stay away from Will and me. Will, come on. -What is it? -Nothing. Is this about Electra? [edgy music plays] Are you and Electra having problems? No, and I don’t wanna cause any. I’m crazy about her, Mom. Well, I think it’s pretty clear she’s crazy about you too. Yeah, I feel that. She tells me all the time. Okay, well, then what is it? I just don’t think we’re on the same page. Will doesn’t want anything to do with you. Really? Then why am I being annoyed by his jealous girlfriend? You should be in prison rotting in a cell for the rest of your life. Oh, but I’m not. I’m free to go and do whatever I want. And you know who I have to thank for that? Bill Spencer. Yeah. That’s right, Electra. I owe my freedom to Will’s dad. I don’t have to justify my decision to you or anyone. I would settle for explaining it. Can you give a reason, just like one single reason why you would let a convicted murderer out of prison? Luna wasn’t safe in there. Oh, Luna wasn’t safe in there? Well, that’s great, Dad. That’s super great, because now none of us are safe out here. You remember she killed two men, right? You remember that? You remember she tried to kill Steffy? Do you even remember Steffy, your grandchild’s mother? Like, this is what I’m talking about. What are you thinking? What is wrong with you? Enough! You think I’m gonna let you walk in my house and talk to me like that? -Hey! -[Deacon] Hey. I thought you were out running errands. Yeah, well, they didn’t take as long as I thought they would. [Sheila] Mm. Everything okay? Ah, you’re still… upset about Luna. Look, I’m not exactly doing cartwheels over the fact that you’re her grandmother, but no, I’ve got bigger fish to fry. Well, what is it? Hope. You still have a place at Forrester Creations. And me, well, my line is dead and I’m not allowed in the building. Honey, things are in transition. Not for me. I have…pretty much lost everything. I’ve… …lost Hope for the Future, I’ve… certainly lost my faith in Carter. [exhales] Just I put my trust in the hands of the wrong man. He basically sold me out for the Forresters and… I still can’t help but feel like you did too. Things with you and Electra have been going well, right? Yeah, really well. That’s not the issue. Y-you’re not on the same page. That’s what you said. About…where we go from here. Like if it’s time to take it to the next step. Oh. Oh. Well, I’m glad that you feel comfortable talking to me about this. I sort of don’t, but, um, I wanna do the right thing. I love her, Mom. She’s talented, hard-working, beautiful, and I really have enjoyed hanging out with her. But you wanna get closer. Yeah. And she’s not ready? I’m a free woman because of Bill. And that’s a good thing, because a few months ago, I had nothing to lose– no family, no future. But I’ve been given this incredible opportunity. -That’s good? -For you. ‘Cause I can’t do anything to screw it up. Of course you will. It’s only a matter of time before you mess up and land yourself right back in jail. But until then, I’m warning you to never come near Will or me ever again. [dark chords swell]
Liam: Luna Nozawa is crazy. She’s an actual murderer. She got a pardon, a clean slate. Not from me! Not from Steffy. Not from th-the families of the men that she killed. Luna is starting over. Dad, Luna… is the kind of person who should be in prison. She is the kind of person who should be locked away for the rest of her life precisely because of how dangerous she is. But now you just– you just let her loose into the world. You effectively unleashed a maniac on the rest of us. So thank you. Thanks. [uneasy music plays] Just give it time, honey. I’ll talk to Ridge. He’ll let you back in. Ridge? Seriously, Mom? That’s your solution? Knowing how he feels about me? You know he will never go for that. -Steffy respects his opinion. -Well… I don’t. And frankly, I’m-I’m getting pretty tired about having to constantly defer to him and his judgement. I’m just trying to be helpful. No, I-I know. You are. And I get that you are still worried about how this is impacting your relationship with him, but, uh, Mom… When are you going to stop feeling like you have to prove yourself to him? You’re enough as you are. And still, you are making him your first thought and your first concern instead of… well, anything else. [moody music plays] I would never want Electra to do anything -that she’s not ready for. -No, of course not. Mom, we’ve been dating for a while now. Sure, but there’s no real timeline with something like this. I mean, it’s gotta feel right for both you and Electra. But that’s what I’m saying is that we’re just not on the same page. It’s good that you’re talking about it. I agree. I just wish that we didn’t get into it at Il Giardino. Did Electra get upset? No. Luna was there. Whoa, hang on. Double murderer Luna? Yep. Yep. She overheard me and Electra and picked up on my frustrations. Did she approach you? More than that, Mom. Luna came on to me. Never touch me again. You hit on my boyfriend and you’re telling me to back off? -And you better listen. -Or what? You just said you’re not gonna ruin your big chance. And nobody else is gonna ruin it for me either. You think just ’cause you got off you can do anything you want? You can’t. You’re sick, Luna. Coming on to Will? It’s pathetic. He doesn’t want anything to do with you. We’ll see about that. I did what I believed was right. For who? Not your family. ‘Cause, if you recall, Luna wanted Steffy dead. All right, we’re done! I’m not debating this with you, Liam. So get off your soap box, go back to the office, -and do what I pay you to do. -Hey, hey, hey! I’m here as your son, not your employee, so this whole like dismissing me thing–that doesn’t work here. I’m trying–Dad, I’m trying to get through to you. Well, you’re wasting your time and mine. Yeah, may–[exhales] Maybe I’m wasting my time. Because any–any– [huffs] Ha. Any attempt to show concern for you you interpret as like this– this offense, like an affront to you. ‘Cause nobody gets to question you. Your behavior can be as bizarre and erratic and shady as you want it to be, and we all just– we just have to accept it, and you think that’s, like, leadership? That’s not leadership, Dad. It’s unaccountability. And it’s gross and it’s reckless, and it’s gonna get somebody killed, somebody in your family, somebody you claim to care so much about. I don’t know– I don’t know what this is. I don’t know what’s going on with you, and I’m starting to think maybe I never will. And maybe that’s– that’s just because I am so damn different from you. [somber music plays] Steffy has tried to cut Hope’s line before. Yeah, no, I know, I know, but this time there’s no one standing in her way. I mean, Hope for the Future, it’s more than just a… a clothing line for her. I mean, it’s her purpose, you know? It’s right up there with being the best mom she can be. She’s put her heart and soul into this, and now it’s gone. She’s gotta be devastated. You-you haven’t talked to her? I’ve-I’ve called her, I’ve texted. No answer. And that’s why I’m worried. I wanna help her. I just… I don’t know how. So Ridge is always going to come first for you–is that it? [sighing] Oh, honey, no. We discussed this. Yes, we did. And I really believed that some kind of change would come from it, but, uh, I guess not. I guess you are, um, still defending Ridge and going to go to work with him every day and continue to support Steffy’s decisions. No, no. No, that’s not true. Just like I didn’t support your takeover. I warned you. I told you there’d be serious consequences. And there were. There were, Mom. Only, I’m the only one suffering those consequences. I mean, Carter is a lawyer. He’s the one that knows all about the LLC papers. You were CEO, and-and yet I’m the only one who’s been fired. I’m sorry, but I– I don’t think it was so wrong to just want better for myself and for the company. [sighs] Honey, it was the way you went about it. Now, Carter understands that. Why can’t you? No, I–okay. I don’t–I don’t wanna get into this with you again, so, you know, I’m just, uh… -[groans] Ohh. -I’m gonna get some fresh air, Mom, all right? Hope, come on! [huffs] [edgy music plays] [upbeat music plays] -I’m really glad you’re back. -Me too. -I’ve been thinking about you. -I’ve been thinking too. Listen, what happened earlier at the restaurant… No, a-about that– it’s no secret how much I care about you. What we have is very special, and I don’t wanna mess that up by pushing too hard. You haven’t. It’s just that I wanna be as close as possible with you. And I know when the time is right, it’ll be great. But you’re not ready, so I’m gonna wait for you. Luna is crazy to think she’d stand a chance with a guy like you. What–Luna? What are you talking about? I kinda confronted her after our talk earlier. Electra, we agreed to keep our distance. She can’t get away with everything, Will. No, I know, I understand, but… Electra, you need to be careful. Not about this. This is too important. I warned her to stay away from us. [heavy music plays] I can’t have someone like Electra coming around here -causing trouble. -Won’t be any trouble for me. Oh, no. Jealous little girl like that– -she’s not gonna let up. -Yeah, tell me about it. -She really let me have it. -I shouldn’t have left. No, I appreciate the support, but… I was in prison with people who actually hurt me. There’s nothing that little girl can do or say to intimidate me. [laughs] And she tried to get all tough. She even shoved me. -What did you do? -Nothing. Yet. Honestly, it’s a good thing that she left, because a part of me really wanted to lash out at that little miss perfect prude Electra Forrester. Be careful, Liam. Okay. There it is. First comes the warning. How are you gonna threaten me this time, Dad? You know, I keep doing– I keep doing this thing where, like, I think that you can change. And sometimes I even think that you did change, but it doesn’t ever stick, and you just end up reverting back to your worst possible instincts. -Or my best ones. -Whoa–okay. Now, I think I’ve been very patient, but you keep this up and it ain’t gonna last. Do you think that you need to show me how powerful you are? I know you’re powerful. I know that you can make anybody do anything you want them to do. That doesn’t make your choices or your actions right. That is about how you treat people, and I’m not talking about how you treat convicted killers like Luna Nozawa. How-how you could do this, how you could let her out of jail–I don’t understand. You don’t have to understand. You just have to accept it. -Well, I don’t. I– -You will! Do you hear me? You will! You work for me. You will do what you’re told. What are you threatening me with exactly? You gonna fire me? Well, that’s a little difficult, because I quit. [intense music plays] HOPE: Hi. You know, I was just thinking about you. Come here. Oh, baby. I’m sorry. I heard what happened at Forrester, and it sucks. -Tried calling. -Mmm. I know, I just–I wasn’t ready to talk about it. It’s okay. You’re here now. That’s what matters. Well, I wasn’t sure where else to go. Came to the right place. Mom just–she doesn’t get it. She doesn’t understand. I feel like she-she’s blaming it all on me. Dad, I could not stay in that house for a second longer and hear her go on and on about Ridge and the Forresters and how I just need to be patient–and what? Just wait around like her for Ridge to do right by me? It is never going to happen. Like, I– I have never felt so betrayed and hurt by my own mom. First of all, you’re not alone. And second of all, Brooke’s not your only parent. I mean, I get that I’m not gonna win Father of the Year anytime soon, but I’m here and I will always have your back because I love you. Honey, I know what you’re feeling right now. I know what it’s like to be shut out and have your choices and your motives questioned. I’ve always been a betting man, and I’m telling you, I would bet on you every day and twice on Sunday ’cause of your heart and your goodness and your strength, and if you need somebody to lean on, you lean on me.
