At home, Finn explains to a shocked Steffy how Sheila is alive. She has trouble taking it all in, and the room spins.

Hope also explains the details to a disbelieving Ridge and Liam at Forrester. Ridge worries about how Steffy will take the news and is disgusted when Hope points out that Sheila was a victim in this particular case.

At the hospital, Li insists that her “patient” take the sheet down to reveal herself. Sheila does, and it shocks Li. Sheila laughs and taunts Li about how “her” son saved her life. Li gets angry and attacks Sheila. The nurses have to pull Li off Sheila. Deacon returns, too, and wonders what’s going on. Li yells that she’ll kill Sheila herself, with her bare hands. Deacon admonishes Sheila for the prank with a smile.

Finn: Look, I know this is an enormous shock and that you can’t believe it. I mean, I couldn’t either. But it’s true. I mean, when deacon first told me about this sugar woman…

Steffy: Okay, deacon lost it. You said so yourself.

Finn: Yeah, I thought he had.

Steffy: Sheila’s dead. Don’t try to tell me otherwise. I killed her right there.

Finn: It wasn’t sheila. It was sugar. That’s who deacon saw at the crematorium. Sugar and sheila are identical in every single way except one. Sugar has ten toes.

Li: Why do you have that sheet over your face? What happened to you? I knew someone named sheila. She had a missing toe too. The middle digit. Black nail polish. Just like you. Who are you? Answer me. Who are you? Answer me!

Liam: Okay, okay. So… what you’re claiming right now is that deacon was– he was right the whole time.

Ridge: Not really the most important thing, is it? You’re saying that sheila is still alive?

Hope: I– I know it’s the last thing that you wanna hear. I just thought you needed to know. Sheila carter is alive.

Ridge: This is unbelievable.

Hope: Well, look, I– I told you–

Ridge: I know what you told me, I know. A little farfetched to think that– that sheila didn’t die that night.

Hope: Because she didn’t, ridge. It wasn’t sheila who broke into the cliff house. It wasn’t sheila who attacked steffy. It wasn’t sheila that steffy stabbed and killed. It was sugar. A woman who apparently looks identical to sheila.

Liam: Whose real name you said was janet webber?

Ridge: Janet webber, yes.

Liam: Okay, well, look. Apparently, she was released not that long ago.

Hope: That is exactly how I felt when I saw sheila face-to-face.

Li: That’s it. I don’t know what kind of game you’re playing, but I am not amused. I came in here to examine you because you asked for me, but I can’t do that if I can’t see your face. Take that sheet down right now. Show me your face!

Sheila: No!

[ Li screams ]

[ Sheila mockingly screams ]

Li: No.

[ Sheila laughs ] No.

Finn: Deacon was right about all of it.

Steffy: Deacon has been feeding you this garbage for weeks. His fantasy about his lost loved one.

Finn: Yeah, he didn’t wanna give up. He didn’t wanna lose her and it’s a good thing that he didn’T. Because sheila is alive.

Steffy: No, finn. I killed sheila. I stabbed her to death right there.

Finn: Honey, no. And that’s what I’m telling you, okay? You didn’t do that. (Vo) you might be used to living with your albuterol asthma

Liam: Hope, you realize this is… this is crazy, this, uh…

Hope: If I hadn’t seen sheila with my own eyes–

Ridge: But, you did see her, right? Right after she was, uh, chained up in a warehouse?

Liam: By the person that steffy actually killed.

Hope: Yes. Sheila carter is alive.

Li: No. No. You– you died.

Sheila: Ooh, did I?

Li: This can’t be. This can’t be. You can’t be.

Sheila: And yet, here I am. You know, and I’d say I’m looking pretty good for a corpse, huh? Don’t you think?

Li: Oh, no, no. No, no, not possible. Steffy killed you. She stabbed you.

Sheila: Yeah, you would’ve liked to see me dead and gone, li. Hm. But I would think again. You– you– you really need to get control of yourself or you’re the one that’s gonna need medical attention. I was a nurse, remember? And I am sensing some hypersensitivity here.

Li: How? How is this happening?

Sheila: Well, I’d like to say it was dumb luck or maybe fate, but the truth is, it was finn. You all tried so hard to drive my son away from me, to drive a wedge between us. But you know what? Miracle of miracles. My wonderful son is the reason that I’m here. I am here…

Li: No! Because of my son, finn.

Li: How?

Finn: It’s okay.

Steffy: No. It’s not okay.

Finn: No.

Steffy: Do you hear yourself right now?

Finn: You’re stunned, all right? Of course, you are. I mean, I was too when I first realized all this.

Steffy: Okay. Sheila’s alive.

Finn: Yeah, it’s a lot to process.

Steffy: Yeah. And sugar looks exactly like sheila.

Finn: Yeah, she’s the one.

Steffy: Like they’re identical. Do you understand how ridiculous this sounds?

Finn: I know, but somehow it’s– it’s true.

Steffy: Oh, my god. Who told you this? Deacon?

Finn: No, my mother told us what happened.

Steffy: Li told you?

Finn: No, sheila. Sheila told us.

Steffy: Sheila. Your mother, okay. Did she tell you this from the grave? Because she is dead, finn.

Finn: Sugar’s dead. Yeah, she’s the one that wanted to hurt you. It wasn’t sheila.

Steffy: I saw sheila’s face.

Finn: I couldn’t tell the difference either. I couldn’t tell them apart. It wasn’t until deacon showed me the picture. Okay, that’s when I realized that what he’s been saying is true. That’s what convinced me. I mean, do you want me to show you?

Steffy: No, I don’t wanna–

Finn: Okay, listen. And the story that lauren fenmore told deacon about what happened all those years ago, that’s when I started to listen. And because, yes, it filled in a lot of the blanks. I understand that it’s crazy, but sheila tricked sugar into plastic surgery

Steffy: Oh, my god.

Finn: So that sugar would pay for all of her crimes. Okay, look, it was lauren fenmore who was the one that realized that it was sugar behind bars and not sheila.

Steffy: Okay, finn, you can’t take everything at face value. Like, where is the evidence? Where is the facts?

Finn: Sheila confessed this to lauren years ago.

Steffy: God.

Finn: Deacon, he wasn’t hallucinating. All right? He thought he saw ten toes going into the crematorium because he did. It wasn’t sheila’s body. It was sugar’S. And, sweetheart, I am not taking anyone’s word for it because I saw sheila. I saw her with my own eyes. Depression is a journey.

Li: What did you do to my son? What did you do to finn?

Sheila: You know, our son. Why do you always forget that?

Li: Where is he?

Sheila: He’s probably spreading the good news to his wife.

Li: Good news?

Sheila: Mama’s alive.

Li: You’re not his mother. You’re nothing to him.

Sheila: Then, why did he save me, huh? Let me tell you why. Because he’s a wonderful, strong, caring boy that loves his birth mother. That’s why I’m here.

Li: No.

Sheila: That’s why I have a second chance. Because of finn. And you know the best part, and you’re not gonna wanna hear this, but he’s happy. He’s happy to have me back in his life, and he never wants to be apart from me again. I wish you could’ve heard the beautiful things he had to say and the joy in his eyes. He even called me mom. You have no idea what that meant to me.

Li: No, no!

Sheila: Stop it. Li, remember your oath, do no harm.

Li: No!

Sheila: Stop. I don’t want to hurt you. Just stop it.

Deacon: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, no! What the hell’s going on?

Nurse: Dr. Finnegan.

Sheila: You know, I think– I think I’d like to see another doctor. Because dr. Finnegan’s bedside manner is– is a bit harsh for me.

Li: I don’t know how you did it. I don’t know how you cheated death, but you will never do it again! I will kill you with my own hands! Sheila, I will kill you! I will kill you!

Liam: This is absolutely insane. I– I don’t– I’m sorry it’s taking a second to process this. It’s not a reflection on you.

Ridge: We’re on board with this now? This latest scheme? We’re buying this?

Hope: Well, look, it’s not another one of sheila’s schemes. That’s what I’m trying to tell you. And finn believes that too.

Liam: Finn knows? Hope?

Hope: Look, when my dad learned about sugar, he– he told finn. And then they found some credit card charges and– and that led them to a mini-mart, they started asking questions, led them to the warehouse and that’s where they found sheila. Chained up. It was finn and my dad. They rescued her. And just so you know, they are both happy that she is alive. And finn is excited to have another chance at a relationship with his birth mother.

Liam: What?

Ridge: Psycho birth mother. What’s steffy gonna do with this? Sheila’s back and finn is choosing her. Is that what we’re doing? Is that where we are?

Liam: How is finn celebrating this, hope? How– how could he possibly celebrate this?

Hope: He thinks that steffy might find some relief in it.

Ridge: Relief? Is that what you said, relief?

Hope: I mean, obviously there will be an initial shock.

Ridge: Relief how? What, just a mother with two kids in danger again?

Liam: Well, whoa, we’re gonna make sure they’re not in danger, first of all.

Hope: Okay, finn cares about that as well. He just thinks that steffy will be relieved to know that she didn’t kill his birth mom.

Ridge: I don’t think this word relief means what you think it means. No one is relieved. Nobody. And if that’s what finn thinks, he’s got another thing coming.

Steffy: You think you saw sheila?

Finn: No, I did see her.

Steffy: Like that night you had the nightmare and you saw her talking to you in her blood?

Finn: No, no, honey. We took her back’s to deacon apartment. We found her and we saved her.

Steffy: I don’t know what this is. Like, what is happening? What is going on right now?

Finn: My mother is alive.

Steffy: Finn, sheila is not your mother. Li is. Sheila is dead. Like, I– this is really starting to freak me out.

Finn: Do you want– no, no, hey, hey, sweetheart. No, there’s nothing to be afraid of, okay? And, look, this isn’t a bad thing. It’s a good thing for all of us. And I understand that this is hard to accept. It’s shocking, it’s– it’s confusing, but we just– we need to give it some time.

Steffy: Finn, this isn’t real. Whatever this is, it’s not true.

Finn: It is, though. And, look, it’s gonna make things better. Because we have been working hard, right? We have been struggling to accept this horrible thing that happened. But guess what? Steffy, it didn’t happen. At least, not how we thought it was. Steffy, my birth mother is alive.

[]

Deacon: What are you giving her?

Sheila: That’s my protective fiancé.

Nurse: Just saline to help you rehydrate.

Sheila: Well, thank goodness. Who knows what dr. Finnegan would be giving me.

Nurse: Be back to check on you in a bit.

Sheila: Not to mention that she got the shock of her life.

Deacon: Hm. That was not very nice.

Sheila: Oh, come on. It was just a prank. Very harmless. Besides, she needed to know that finn’s birth mother was still alive.

Deacon: Mm-hmm.

Sheila: If you could’ve seen the look on her face.

Deacon: Yeah, well, wait ’til you see the look on everyone else’s face once they realize that sheila carter is back from the dead. Once again.

Ridge: My daughter’s gonna be horrified. Finn must know that.

Liam: What the hell is wrong with him?

Hope: What, finn can’t be happy that his birth mother isn’t dead?

Ridge: His birth mother tried to destroy this family.

Hope: That wasn’t sheila that tried to break into the house. That was sugar.

Ridge: This time. But what, all the other times, it was her. Any attempted murder. Any– any vicious attacks. Any of that, it was her. And if finn wants her back in our lives, I’ve got a problem with that.

Liam: It’s not just you. We’re all gonna have a problem. Including kelly, by the way, who lives over there. My daughter with finn and steffy. If sheila’s actually alive, none of us relax. Ever again.

Hope: Finn doesn’t believe that.

Liam: Because he’s an idiot!

Hope: Liam, sheila tried to stop sugar. She risked her life to protect steffy and the kids.

Ridge: Says who?

Hope: Finn. He believes that she is a changed person. That she is reformed.

Finn: I know it’s hard to believe. And you’ve been struggling with this for weeks.

Steffy: And so have you. More than I realized.

Finn: Yeah. I have been struggling. I mean, nothing has been the same since that night. And I was hoping that we could move past that, but it’s– it’s been there. It’s been in the back of my mind and I– I didn’t know why until I understood that deacon was right. My birth mother could be alive and I wanted to find her and we did.

Steffy: No, you didn’T. Sheila is dead.

Finn: Well, she could’ve been if we wouldn’t have found her in time. But we did. And she’s safe and I’m thankful.

Steffy: Huh? What? You’re thankful? After everything she did to us, we worked really hard to put her behind us.

Finn: Yeah, we have. It’s been difficult. Because the woman that I love killed the mother that I never got a chance to help.

Steffy: It was in self-defense.

Finn: No, hey, honey. No, no, no. Listen, I know, steffy. I know that it’s self-defense. That’s what I’m trying to tell you. Can’t you see? We don’t have to worry about that anymore.

Steffy: Because I didn’t kill sheila?

Finn: That’s right.

Steffy: What? So, the woman who came in here, that wasn’t sheila?

Finn: No. Honey, no, look, and I’m not losing it. I’m not confused. And you know me. You know me better than anyone. And I’m– I’m telling you the truth.

Steffy: So… what? That was sugar. Sugar was in our home. Oh, deacon was right. That woman who came in here… that woman who came in here and attacked me, that was sugar? And– and this whole time, sheila was what? She was– she was in a warehouse and you and deacon saved her? Is this real right now? Sheila carter’s alive. Sheila’s alive.

Deacon: Here’s a look ahead.

Finn: Let me guess. Deacon wants me to come to the wedding too.

Hope: He wanted to know if you would be his best man.

Steffy: This sick, twisted tie that you have to finn, it ends today.

Luna: What does it say? Is it negative? Is it positive?

At the cliff house, Finn tells Steffy that Sheila is alive, but she has trouble believing him.

Sheila and Deacon, at home and happy to be reunited, joke around and look forward to their future (getting married). He suggests they go to Vegas. She feels a little dizzy, so he insists that she go to the hospital. She gives in. When Deacon goes back to the car for a minute, Sheila hears Li’s voice outside and decides to play a prank on her. She asks the nurse if she can see “Dr. Finnegan.” The nurse tells Li that a patient named Sheila asked for her specifically. Li freezes at first, but then relaxes because she knows that Sheila is dead. She goes in to the room, but Sheila has covered up her body and face. Li asks her to take the sheet down. Underneath, Sheila is smiling devilishly. She pulls the sheet up to reveal her toes. Li looks terrified and demands that the patient take the sheet down now.

Hope is still lost in thought in her office at Forrester about Sheila being alive. Ridge and Liam walk in, chatting. They notice that Hope isn’t saying anything, so they ask her what’s wrong. She tells them that Sheila is alive. They don’t understand why she’s saying that.

Finn: I can’t thank you enough, hope, for just– for listening and understanding and not judging me.

Hope: Well, I mean, I’m still waiting for the shock to wear off. I– I was not expecting to see sheila standing here when I walked in, so I can only imagine how you must be feeling. A thousand different ways. I mean, your birth mother. I’m sure you must be relieved that she’s alive.

Finn: Yeah. I mean, I’ve been mourning her death for weeks, but now that she’s back, I have a chance for her to be a part of my life.

Hope: Look, I’m not telling you not to be excited, but at the same time, I think we– we need to acknowledge the fact that, uh, steffy despises sheila and she might not exactly be understanding about your feelings.

Steffy: She can literally talk me into anything. I told her no more toys under any circumstance.

Liam: You left the store with a toy, didn’t you?

Steffy: No, I left with three toys.

[ Liam laughs ] Oh, my goodness.

Liam: Well, if it makes you feel any better, I’m still washing off the, uh, giant fairy tattoo she drew all over my back in permanent marker. I would show you, but I don’t trust you not to take a photo.

Steffy: What would I do without you? Thank you.

Liam: For what?

Steffy: Taking my mind off sheila.

Deacon: Say yes. Say you’ll marry me.

Sheila: Deacon. I–

Deacon: I’m so thrilled that you’re home. I just want to finish what we started, this little life that we’re building together. Baby, I want to share all of it with you. Let’s make it official, for real this time. Say you’ll marry me. Say you’ll be my wife.

Deacon: We both know this wasn’t my first proposal. It wasn’t that long ago that I was skittish because I– I didn’t think that I could get married without my daughter’s approval. And that wasn’t fair to put you in that position because you deserve more. Baby, you deserve the entire world and that’s what I want to give you. Full and complete commitment. That’s what I want to give you right now. I understand if you have second thoughts, but I’m ready. I want this. I want you.

Steffy: I know sheila’s dead, but I– I can’t stop the constant stream of these thoughts swirling in my head.

Liam: Well, you will eventually, right? Because she can’t hurt you anymore. She can’t scare you anymore. Sheila doesn’t have power over you anymore.

Steffy: Or finn.

Hope: I am not trying to be a downer.

Finn: No, I hear you.

Hope: I just think we should be realistic. And I get that you’re grateful to find out that sheila’s alive.

Finn: How many people get a second chance like this? And yes, we were total strangers for almost my entire life, but… and yeah, a lot– a lot has happened. Sheila’s done a million awful things, but I don’t want to spend this next chapter hating her and punishing her. I’m her son. We have a connection.

Hope: Well, maybe so, but… I mean, how– how do you think steffy is going to react when you tell her that sheila is alive? Ready to switch?

Sheila: You’re making it so hard not to say yes.

Deacon: Well, then say yes.

Sheila: I want to. I– I– more than you know.

Deacon: Come on, we’ve already had one miracle today. Let’s keep the momentum going here, you know? Let’s not waste another second. Baby, I’ll take care of you. I will spend the rest of my life making you happy.

Sheila: I know that. I know that we would be happy together, deacon. It’s just that I can’t hide my love for you, our relationship. I can’t live like that anymore.

Deacon: Oh, you know what? I can’t do that either. So forget about that. No more keeping it a secret. Listen, I am proud of you. I’m proud of us. Everything that we’ve survived. Against all odds, the misfit couple of L.A. What the hell do we care? Look, I know that hope will come around sooner or later. And the rest of them? Well, screw them because I will be so proud to be your husband. I’ll post it on social media. I’ll take out a billboard. I’ll scream it from the rooftops. Hey, world! I want to marry this woman!

Sheila: Okay, stop!

Deacon: I want sheila carter to be my wife!

Sheila: All right, all right.

Deacon: What do you say?

Sheila: I get it, I believe you. Yes.

Deacon: You do? So…

Sheila: I say yes. I say yes. Of course, I’m gonna marry you.

[ Both laugh ] I love you.

Deacon: I love you too.

Liam: Well, sheila’s death certainly, uh, frees up some emotional space, doesn’t it?

Steffy: Yeah, you’re right. Finn and I can finally relax. We can focus on our family, our relationship, our future.

Liam: Our future without his psychopath mom.

Steffy: Oh, gosh. I will never understand his tie to his mother. Do I wish she didn’t exist? Absolutely. But I do know that finn loves us. I know he is committed to his family. And I’m really starting to see finn moving on. Leaving sheila in the past.

Hope: Who knew my dad was such a savvy detective, right? I mean, finding articles about sugar, tracing credit cards. I mean, honestly, I’M… kind of impressed.

Finn: Look, if it wasn’t for deacon, sheila would still be in that warehouse. He saved her. I mean, he’s a legitimate hero.

Hope: Well, just wait ’til everyone finds out.

Finn: No, I know. I know. I’m bracing myself. And I know there’s gonna be a lot of unhappy people.

Hope: Namely your wife. Just preparing you for it.

Finn: No, I know. But I’m hoping that she’ll realize that sheila offered her life to protect her and the kids. And I think she’ll be relieved that she didn’t kill my birth mother.

Hope: I– I hope she will be grateful about that last part.

Finn: Look, I know it’s not gonna be easy, but I have to believe that someday I will be able to get through to steffy and she’ll be able to understand and support my need to help and to have my mom in our lives.

[Coughing]

Sheila: I am never gonna take this for granted ever again. It’s– it’s, you know, it’s the simple pleasure I– it’s all I need. What a difference a day makes.

Deacon: You got that right, mrs. Sharpe.

Sheila: I like the sound of that.

Liam: In spite of whatever nonsense deacon is spewing, you really can let your guard down now.

Steffy: Yeah, my husband can finally put his family first. No more of sheila’s manipulations. No more of deacon’s delusions. Like, I know my husband. I know how much he loves us and he’s not gonna put me or the children at risk.

Liam: Well, that’s gotta be a good feeling.

Steffy: It is. I– I’m sorry. I just, I’ve been rambling so much. Thank you for letting me vent.

Liam: Yeah, any time. Seriously.

Steffy: No, I really appreciate it. Well, I’m gonna go. I’m gonna see finn. Tonight is all about reconnecting.

Finn: Look, I save lives for a living. I give people second, third chances. I believe in the power of the body and the soul to heal and to grow, so I believe that for sheila. And I think it’s time we put the past behind us. Sheila’s learned her lesson. She’s reformed. Look, the fact that she offered her own life to defend steffy and kelly and hayes, it says it all.

Hope: I mean, the entire situation is pretty incredible.

Finn: Yeah, and I just, I need to get steffy to realize that. Plus, I think she’s gonna be relieved that she didn’t kill my birth mother.

Hope: I hope you’re right. I mean, I– I hope she is going to be able to empathize and see your perspective.

Finn: Well, I know you’re pulling for me.

Hope: Yeah, I just want what’s best for you.

Finn: Well, I appreciate it. I appreciate you really hearing me and not thinking I’m nuts.

[ Hope laughs ]

Hope: Oh, well, I’ve seen worse. I could never think that about you. I’m just glad that you’re comfortable sharing all this with me.

Finn: How are you feeling? Any dizziness from fainting?

Hope: I’m okay. You did a good job taking care of me.

Finn: It’s my job.

Hope: Well, if you ever need anyone to talk to, you know who to call.

Finn: Hey, hope. You’re the best. Hey, come here.

Hope: Aw.

Finn: Thank you. No, seriously. Wild turn of events, huh?

Hope: I’ll say.

Finn: Okay, I’m gonna head home and I’m gonna tell steffy the good news.

Hope: Good luck.

Finn: It’s all gonna work out. You’ll see.

Hope: Well, for your sake, I hope so.

[ Finn chuckles]

Did you know…

Sheila: I can’t get enough of this.

Deacon: Well, get ready for a lifetime of moments like this, sweetheart. Because, baby, this is just the beginning.

Sheila: I was so worried I’d never see you again.

Deacon: You were worried? I thought you were dead. I threw you a funeral. There was this part of me that just, I– I could feel that you were out there somewhere.

Sheila: It’s because you never lost faith in me.

Deacon: No. I woke up this morning convinced that you were alive. I just… I wasn’t sure that I could find you in time, and if I did, what condition you’d be in. And now here you are, next to me, engaged to be my wife again.

Sheila: Little correction, you’re engaged to be my husband.

Deacon: Oh, for better or for worse.

[ Both chuckle ]

Sheila: I’m so glad to have you in my life. I really thought that I was going to die in that warehouse and that I had no chance to stop sugar from hurting steffy and the children. But the thought of you, it’s really what kept me going. Your love for me because you have always stood by my side, no matter what.

Deacon: I will always be by your side. Always and forever. And now, it’s not just me. Now, you have finn. Your son will stand by you too.

Sheila: I’ve wanted his love for so long.

Deacon: I know and now you have it.

Sheila: Yeah, now–

Deacon: Totally, unconditionally.

Sheila: I have my people. I finally have a family. You know, you and finn, you accept me with all of my flaws. And that’s all I’ve ever wanted, is to be loved and truly loved. I feel like I don’t have to go through life on my own anymore. I– I– I have hands to hold and I’ve got shoulders to lean on.

Deacon: You’ve got people who care about you.

Sheila: Baby, you saved me. You and my son saved me.

[ Hope sighs ]

Hope: I can’t believe my dad was right. Sheila is… sheila’s alive.

Finn: I’m bracing myself and I know there’s going to be a lot of unhappy people.

Hope: Namely your wife, just preparing you for it.

Finn: I know it’s not going to be easy, but I have to believe that someday, I will be able to get through to steffy and she’ll be able to understand and support my need to help and to have my mom in our lives.

Hope: I hope steffy doesn’t disappoint you, finn.

[ Phone pings ]

[ Door opens ]

Finn: Hey.

Steffy: Hi.

[ Steffy laughs ] I talked to the kids. They’re at grandma li’s, so it’s just us.

Finn: Candles?

Steffy: Yeah. What’s gotten into you?

Finn: You got my message?

Steffy: Yeah. You couldn’t wait to see me.

Finn: Well, I can never wait to see my gorgeous and understanding wife.

Steffy: Lucky me. You, uh, you want some wine?

Finn: Um, no, I think I’m– I think I’m okay for right now. I’m just, um, a little fired up.

Steffy: Really?

Finn: Yeah.

Steffy: I have to say, I haven’t talked to you for so long. I mean, you seemed really distracted this morning, and I finally just got a text from you now.

Finn: I was just– I was dealing with something, but it was next level, okay? Like, miraculous.

Steffy: It was like a patient or something? Let me guess, you were saving a life.

Finn: Well, I definitely did that today.

Steffy: What’s your motto? No one is a lost cause?

Finn: Yeah, I– I try to see the good in everyone, right? Look at their potential and their ability to learn from their mistakes and if they can grow to lead a productive, happy life, yeah.

Steffy: That’s really beautiful. And I love that about you. I love how compassionate you are. Wait– oh, my gosh. You are a completely different person from this morning.

Finn: Yeah, um, I am. I am different. My whole world has shifted in the most– the surprising way.

Steffy: Why? What happened? Tell me.

Finn: I have unbelievable news. And I didn’t believe it at first, and you probably won’t either, but, um, it’s amazing. Steffy, it’s truly amazing.

[ Relaxing music ]

Deacon: Honey, you’re struggling, I know, to believe what you’re seeing.

Hope: I mean, it– this doesn’t make sense, dad. I– I came over to try to– to convince you to stop spreading that theory about sheila, and…

Finn: It’s true. Hope, my mom is back with us.

Deacon: She never left. She was here the whole time.

Finn: It’s amazing. A miracle.

Steffy: And you think this is a good deal?

Carter: Yeah. Yeah, I think we should sign. With some clarifications with the numbers first.

Steffy: Well, knowing bill, he’s made this purposefully murky.

Carter: Exactly why scheduled the meeting with liam instead.

Steffy: Smart man.

Liam: Hey.

Carter: There he is. Right on cue.

Liam: Yeah, I know. On cue. Very late, on cue.

Steffy: Liam, I have questions.

Liam: Oh, of course you do. Can I ask a question first? Did finn ever call you back?

Carter: Okay, this should… this should work for us. Unless there’s anything I’m missing.

Steffy: You, miss something? Please. Why do you think you have the job that you do?

[ Carter chuckles ]

Carter: All right, we’ll get everything signed and over to your legal department later today.

Liam: Very nice. You’re not going to regret it.

Steffy: Rarely do when we do business with spencer.

Liam: Hey, that’s settled. Uh, you never answered my question. Did finn call you back?

Carter: If you two need a moment, I can–

Steffy: No, no, no. It’s fine. Liam is aware that I’ve been worried about finn. How deacon’s getting into his head with all of these crazy conspiracy theories.

Carter: Crazy is an understatement.

Steffy: I think deacon’s going to stop with this stupid nonsense.

Liam: Yeah? Why?

Steffy: Because hope is going to talk to him. And honestly, I– I think my father is right. I think hope is the only one that can shut him down. Hopefully, it’s soon because I cannot hear deacon go on and on about sheila’s toes anymore.

Hope: This is insane.

Deacon: Yeah, I know.

Hope: So, steffy did kill someone that night. Just not…

Finn: Not my mom.

Deacon: Yeah, I was right. I mean, I knew what I saw at the crematorium. Ten toes.

Hope: Okay, so– so you– you you tricked this sugar woman into getting plastic surgery?

Sheila: You know, hope, it was a desperate time in my life. I’m not trying to justify. I mean, what happened back then really was terrible. But sugar, she was… she was a tortured woman before, but– but after…

Finn: She chained her up. In an abandoned warehouse. She wanted to kill steffy and frame sheila.

Hope: This is just all… this is all too much. Okay, um… so, dad, everything– everything you were saying about sheila being alive, it was– it was true.

Deacon: Yeah. You know what else was true? That sheila’s a changed woman. She’s worthy of my love. And finn’S. And it would mean the world to me if you could start to accept that.

Finn: He’s right, hope. Auntie, you can’t put that right in the dishwasher.

Liam: Well, one thing about deacon is he respects hope’s opinion. I don’t imagine the guy takes advice from too many people, but hope’s got clout with him. And so if she’s there right now, there’s a good chance this could be over soon.

Steffy: Well, I prefer hope shutting this down the moment it happened, but…

Carter: Hey, if hope fails for some reason, we’ll try with someone else. And we’ll keep trying because eventually someone will get deacon to shut up and stop spouting these ridiculous theories about sheila being alive.

Liam: I mean, that’s the thing, right? If it were just affecting him, we’d all probably be laughing about this right now. But it’s not just affecting deacon, and that’s what he has to understand. He’s actually hurting people with this conspiracy theory.

[ Phone chiming ] Nobody more than you.

Carter: Oh, I gotta go. Fingers crossed, right? Stay positive. Can’t wait to hear what hope has to say about it.

Steffy: Thanks, carter.

Liam: See you, man.

[ Door closes ] Well, you wanna vent? You wanna scream? You wanna throw something? I’m here.

Steffy: Honestly, I just don’t want to talk about sheila anymore. I mean, she’s dead. Why can’t we just forget about her?

Sheila: You really believe in me, don’t you?

Sheila: Yeah, I do. Look, I– I now see the work that you’ve been doing. You’ve proven it to me.

Sheila: This– this is all I’ve wanted. I mean, to feel like I belong, that I’m accepted and loved because I have tried and I have failed my entire life and no one has ever given me another chance until now. It’s like I– I finally have what I’ve been searching for my entire life.

Hope: I am sure this was a very harrowing experience for you, sheila. And I can obviously see how relieved and happy my father and finn are, understandably. But I still have my concerns. Although, dad, I do want you to know how proud I am of you and finn for rescuing sheila and getting her the help that she needed. She was a victim in all of this, but are we really so convinced that she’s not the same woman capable of murder? Does this experience really give her–

Deacon: Honey, look, sheila risked her life to protect steffy and the kids from sugar. Protect, not harm. No manipulation, no evil intent.

Finn: She did everything she could to save steffy and the kids. She even… I mean, she offered her own life instead.

Deacon: Look, I’ve known it all along, but I believe it even more now. Sheila’s a changed woman.

Sheila: Look, hope, you– you don’t have to believe that yet. It’s okay. But you will. You will believe it one day. Right now, I am just thankful– I’m thankful that these two do. And as much as I would love to sit here and have you say the most amazing things about me, I… I was hoping you’d want to get some fresh air with me. After being chained up in that dark, dirty warehouse, I– I just– I want to see daylight and feel the breeze on my face.

Deacon: Absolutely. As long as you’re up to it.

Sheila: I am.

Deacon: Well, all right then. So, if you two will excuse us, sheila and I have some daylight to go attend to.

[ Sheila chuckles ]

Deacon: All right.

Sheila: All right. Hope, finn and– and deacon, they are right about me. They really are. And I want to thank you. Thank you, baby, for believing in me.

[ Hope scoffs ]

Hope: How? How?

Finn: I know. I know. Warn me if you’re going to faint again. ()

Sheila: You have no idea how much I missed this, longed for this. The daylight, breathing in this fresh air. I– being in that warehouse, I wasn’t sure I’d ever take a breath of fresh air again, but thanks to you, I am.

Deacon: It’s a beautiful thing.

Sheila: Breathing? Yeah. Yeah, it is.

Deacon: I meant you. It’s just beautiful to see you, you know, enjoying life’s simple pleasures. We should all learn to do more of that.

Sheila: You know what? Anybody can. They just need to be chained up for a few weeks.

Deacon: Maybe a little too soon. I know what I said about your reform. I see it. Finn sees it. Everybody else is going to come around eventually. It never made sense to me that you went after steffy. I feel terrible that I didn’t act on those impulses earlier. I should have–

Sheila: No, no, no, no. You thought you saw me. You saw my face. At least that’s–

Deacon: Sheila, she looked exactly like you, but I still should have known that it wasn’t you. I should have known that you never would have attacked steffy.

Steffy: Is it too much to ask to never mention sheila again? Just forget about her existence?

Liam: No argument here.

Steffy: I need to erase that night. I can’t even think about it anymore. Me defending myself, grabbing the knife, and then you have deacon who’s just saying all these idiotic things.

Liam: Hey, hey, hey. Listen for a second. Listen. I know that sheila’s still hanging over you. And– and I know that deacon’s overactive imagination is not helping, but this is all, it’s a process, right? It’s all slowly phasing out.

[ Steffy exhales loudly ] But there is no sheila anymore. She’s gone. She’s gone for good.

Hope: Look, if I’m freaking out about what a total shock that was, I mean, I– I actually fainted upon seeing sheila. I mean, I can only imagine what is going on with you. I mean, you thought she was gone forever. You thought you’d never have another opportunity to and now…

Finn: Yeah, it’s surreal. I mean, I thought deacon was delusional. I mean, we all did, right? I mean, even after I learned about sugar and what she looked like, it was– it– it was still hard to let myself believe.

Hope: Until you saw her for yourself.

Finn: Yeah, um…

[ Hope laughs in disbelief ] This really complicates things, doesn’t it?

Hope: Uh-huh.

[ Finn sighs ] Oh, yeah, just… just a little bit. But, um, I don’t know, finn, I am happy for you.

Finn: Thanks. And I know some people might…

Finn: Yeah.

Hope: Well, look, I’m– I’m not going to judge you for this, okay? So, like, if you ever need someone to talk to, a safe place to share your feelings and..

Finn: Thank you. Right now, I just, I don’t know, I feel, um… yeah, I feel a sense of relief and– and joy. I mean, I thought she was gone. I thought my mother died trying to hurt my wife, but sheila didn’t do that. And– and now I’ve… I’ve got this– this new opportunity. I mean, do you realize what a sense of relief that is? I mean, look, the woman who gave birth to me, she’s alive.

I have type 2 diabetes, but I manage it well

Sheila: Hey, you’ve got nothing to apologize for.

Deacon: I should have gone down to the cops. I should have demanded they open an investigation.

Sheila: No, no, no. Shh. You’re my hero. You saved my life.

Deacon: Well, technically, it wasn’t me. It was you. You and those nine toes because that missing digit saved you.

Sheila: And here, everyone said I was crazy.

Deacon: Yeah, well, you were. I mean, of all the insane things you’ve done, and there have been about a zillion of them, that’s the most insane so far. So far. Because I’m sure you’re probably going to keep surprising me. Aren’t you? Yeah.

Sheila: Because I do like to keep things interesting.

Deacon: It’s because you’re my little hurricane. You’re my wild little hurricane blowing around, causing all sorts of trouble. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Sheila: What are you saying? What, you’re saying you like cleaning up after me?

Deacon: I do. And I hope to do it for the rest of my life.

Sheila: Deacon…

Deacon: Sheila, I never thought I needed anyone until you. You and your magical missing toe.

[ Sheila laughs ] I don’t give a damn what anyone thinks. I believe in you. I believe in us. Marry me, sheila.

Steffy: Thank you, liam. I actually do feel a little better. Probably the first time since… since our wedding. When sheila revealed that she was finn’s biological mother.

Liam: Yeah, it’s been a little tense for you ever since then.

Steffy: Yeah, but now with her dead, I’m realizing a lot. I can finally breathe again. I don’t have to look over my shoulder. I don’t have to hire guards. Finn and I are finally free of her.

Finn: You know what I just can’t get over? Besides the obvious that, you know, steffy didn’t kill sheila.

Hope: Which would obviously have a big impact on you.

Finn: Yeah, yeah, it does. I’m not going to deny that. But, I mean, what she did, it was heroic. I mean, no, and that means a lot to me. She tried to stop sugar from hurting steffy and the kids. I mean, she offered her own life. And I’m not saying that the past doesn’t matter. And I’ve forgotten about the horrible things that she did. But people, they do change. I mean, they can reform.

Hope: I– I would love to wholeheartedly agree with you, finn, but there are still some issues that I’m struggling with here. And I think most people probably will for quite some time. Um… maybe there is another side of things where you and my dad might be right and sheila really has changed.

Finn: She has. And now, you know, not having to have this pit in my stomach because my mother died at the hands of my wife, I have a little bit of hope. And there’s reason to think that there’s a way to have her in my life. And having her back now, I mean, I want to encourage that growth. I don’t want to lose that opportunity again.

Hope: Well, for your sake, I, um… I hope that some day steffy will be able to see your side of things.

Finn: Okay, look, I’m not kidding myself. I know it’s going to take some serious convincing. And there’ll need to be a major mind shift for steffy to see sheila in a new light. But I think if she can just come to understand the situation and see how much sheila has reformed, and see the concern sheila has for her safety, I mean, at the very least, she’s going to be relieved that she didn’t kill my birth mother, right? Steffy, she’s– she’s going to come around. She believes in thomas. Man, life is too short. I– I want to have my birth mother in it and I’m determined to make that happen. I don’t want to waste this opportunity.

Finn: Thanks, um… I don’t know, thanks for– thanks for just listening to me and understanding. I– I need that. More than ever.

Finn: I mean, I just– I still can’t believe it that you’re here and that you’re with us. I mean, I thought– I thought I lost you and that we would never see you again.

Sheila: Yeah, well, I– I am right here and I’m not going anywhere. And I never want to be apart from either of you ever again.

Deacon: You think I’d let you? You’re stuck with me.

Finn: Stuck with us. We’ve been through a lot. But deep down, I always… I always thought that if we just had the time– the time to fix things and to– to heal, and that if you did the work that one day, you know, maybe we could build a relationship. But then when I thought you died, it just… I just don’t want to be apart from you either.

Hope: Wow, this is all great feedback. Thank you. I have to admit, I was a little nervous about this meeting. I thought you might be pulling back on our budget given that thomas has stepped down as our lead designer.

Carter: Topic came up.

Ridge: It did. Because hope for the future has gone through a bit of a transition. And we’re all aware of that. All aware that you’ve surrounded yourself with really good people. It’s a good group. Zende and rj, I mean, they… they’ve come up with some really cool stuff already and they’re only going to get better. Luna’s going to pick up the slack. We’re going to be okay.

Hope: Thank you for that vote of confidence. And I will be sure to stay on top of them. You know, make sure that the communication and creativity keep on flowing.

Steffy: Sorry, sorry. I’m– I’m late. Sorry.

Ridge: Steffy, you all right?

Steffy: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um…

Ridge: What’s going on?

Steffy: Let’s get to work. No, nothing. It’s nothing, dad.

Ridge: Steffy. I just want this nightmare to be over. Deacon keeps going on and on about sheila being alive and it needs to end.

Carter: It’s tough to move on when deacon won’t stop bringing sheila back into your lives.

Ridge: He just doesn’t know when to quit, does he?

Hope: All right, well, I apologize for my father once again. I will go speak to him. And I will do that right now.

Steffy: Well, tell him to stay away from finn because we’re done with everything and anything that has to do with sheila.

Sheila: You… you never gave up on me even when everyone said you were crazy for thinking I was alive.

Deacon: I couldn’T. I know you. I know your heart. It never made sense that you went after steffy. Then, I saw the ten toes.

Sheila: No, you only saw them because you wanted to stay with me to the very end.

Deacon: I wasn’t ready to let you go. I wasn’t the only one. You know, I was going off about how you were still alive and sugar was killed and, you know, finn, he had every reason to write me off, but he didn’T. Just the possibility of you being alive was enough for him to help me find you.

Sheila: My hero.

Finn: Well, you too. You tried to save steffy and the kids from sugar. You tried to protect my family.

Sheila: Of course I did because they’re my family too.

Deacon: It’s like I’ve been saying. Yeah, sheila’s done some terrible things, but there is good in her heart. Her love for you and your family, it’s real. You have to see the power of redemption and rehabilitation. And I know you said that you believed that sheila tried to save your family, but finn, it’s not enough just to believe her. You have to believe in her.

Finn: Well, I do. I believe in you.

I have type 2 diabetes, but I manage it well

Ridge: You know, sharpe’s always been a desperate, selfish little man, but now he’s really lost it.

Carter: I’m really sorry you and finn are going through this, steffy. After everything sheila’s put you through, I was hoping this would be a season of peace for you two.

Steffy: You and I both. Sheila really rocked our marriage, and I wasn’t sure we’d ever be the same again.

Ridge: All right, but you’re working through it. You’re gonna get past that terrible night. You’re doing it.

Steffy: Yeah, but deacon’s gotten to finn’s head, really manipulating his emotions.

Carter: Yeah, but maybe hope can get through to him. If anyone can, it’s her, right?

Ridge: All right, don’t read into it. He’s probably just busy.

Steffy: I’m just, I’m getting a real weird vibe.

Charlie: Hi. Sorry, am I interrupting?

Ridge: Hey, charlie. Remember when we talked about, like, western civilization, that there’s a closed door and what it means? Remember how you’re supposed to knock? We talked about this. Try again.

Carter: So, you’re getting a vibe?

Steffy: Yeah, I am. It’s just, it feels so odd and–

Ridge: Hang on. Here it comes.

[ Knocking on door ] Hey, charlie.

Charlie: You have a minute?

Ridge: Yeah, come on in.

Charlie: Well, it seems like we have a showdown. And not the fashion kind. It seems that ms. Lucas the head of accounting, is parking over the line into mr. Scott’s slot, who’s the head of sales. And it’s about to get ugly out there.

Ridge: Okay, why are you telling me this? Just go fix it.

Charlie: Well, normally I would, sir, but, you know, as you realize, a man in my position can be quite intimidating. I thought you might want to de-escalate first. Besides, uh, ms. Lucas scares me.

Ridge: Well, that does sound like a very delicate situation. I’ll put my best man on it. My coo.

Carter: What?

Ridge: Go fix it. Yeah.

[ Carter sighs ]

Carter: Let’s go, charlie. Let’s go attend to this very important piece of business.

Charlie: Thank you, carter. I think you realize just how threatening a man like me can be.

Carter: I can tell by your little biceps.

Charlie: See?

Ridge: Hey. Whatever this vibe is that you’re feeling, it’s going to be okay. You and finn are going to work through it. And hope’s going to talk to deacon and he’s going to stop talking about sheila. You’re not going to hear about her ever again.

Finn: This is, um, this is all still setting in. And you being here and us getting a second chance.

Sheila: But you do believe it, right? That I– I really have changed.

Finn: Oh, yes, I do. You offered your life to protect my family, to try and save steffy from sugar.

Sheila: Regardless if steffy hates me or not, she’s still my family. You all are. It must have been devastating. Her thinking that she– she killed me, your mother. I– I’m sure that’s caused some tension in your marriage.

Finn: It did, yeah. Um… you were dead and it felt like steffy was slipping between my fingers.

Sheila: No. Honey, I would never want that because you deserve to be happy.

Finn: Well, I am now, knowing that you’re alive and that steffy didn’t kill you. It’s just, it’s unbelievable.

Deacon: You got that right. Imagine the shockwaves it’s going to send through los angeles and genoa city when people find out that sheila and her nine toes are still tapping.

Hope: Dad? Are you home? It’s me.

Deacon: Just a second. No, no, no. She’s going to find out eventually. There’s no reason to hide, okay?

Sheila: Are you sure?

Deacon: Yeah. I just got you back. I’m not going to pretend you’re not here.

Hope: Dad, what’s taking so long?

Deacon: I’m coming. Honey–

Hope: Dad, I know you’re grieving and I want to be here to help you, but you can’t keep going around town telling people that sheila– sheila is… sheila…

Deacon: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Auntie, you can’t put that right in the dishwasher.

Ridge: You know, when you were a little girl, you hit your head or skin your knee, you know, all I had to do was give you a hug, give you a kiss. Make everything better. But this, this woman, she almost killed you twice. And now she’s gone, but she’s still here in our lives. I don’t know what to do.

Steffy: Finn and I, we can– we can handle it. When life gets tough, we just, we fight. I’m just tired of fighting.

Ridge: Well, you know you don’t have to do it alone, right? I’m here for you. So is brooke and so is hope.

Steffy: Oh, dad, come on.

Ridge: She feels badly about what you– this whole thing with sheila and what deacon is doing, she feels badly about it.

Steffy: Think about all the terrible things sheila has done to our family. Even brooke, her own mother.

Ridge: She hasn’t forgotten about that, I’m sure.

Steffy: Okay, but she does have a soft spot for deacon, her father. She went to the memorial and I really don’t think that hope has the guts to tell her father stop with this ridiculous theory.

Ridge: Or maybe she’s the only one that can help us with that. They have a strange relationship, yes, but maybe she’s the one who can convince him that– that what he’s thinking about is not real.

Steffy: I– I honestly, I don’t care if hope changes deacon’s mind about sheila. I mean, he could stay in his house, and he could count toes over and over again. Hope just needs to convince deacon to stay away from finn.

Finn: Easy, easy. Elevate her leg. Uh, hope? Hey, hope. Hope.

Deacon: I got you.

Finn: Hey, hope. Hope, it’s finn. Your dad’s here.

Deacon: I’m right here, sweetheart.

Finn: Hope? Hope? Hey. Hey, hey. You fainted. It’s finn, it’s your dad.

Deacon: Sweetheart, I’m here.

Hope: Mm.

Deacon: Okay.

[ Hope groans ]

Finn: Whoa, easy.

Deacon: Sweetheart, sweetheart, look at me. Hope, hope, look at me. You’re not, you’re not seeing things.

Hope: No, no, sheila was stabbed.

Finn: Okay, just, let’s take some deep breaths, okay? Just easy here, in and out. Listen to me.

Hope: Sheila?

Deacon: What you’re seeing is real.

Finn: It’s true.

Hope: No, no, sheila was dead.

Finn: No.

Deacon: No.

Finn: Your dad was right all along. Everything that he’s been saying is true. Sheila’s alive.

Sheila: It’s really good– good to see you, hope. You look like you’ve seen a ghost, but I am– I’m– I’m not a ghost. It’s really me here in the flesh. I’m not dead. My mental health was better.

Steffy: Got anything stronger?

Ridge: Just get out of here. You wanna do that, go to malibu, take your mind off things?

Steffy: No, I’ve already let sheila and this ridiculous situation take up way too much of my day. I need to work.

Ridge: I wish I could fix this for you.

Steffy: I love you, dad, but I can take care of myself.

Ridge: I know you can take care of yourself, I know that. You’ve always done that, but this is– this is too much. What you’ve been through, you’re still going through it.

Steffy: I took a life, dad. Even if it was a life not worth living.

Ridge: It wasn’t worth living. That woman, that awful woman, everything she touched has turned to misery.

Steffy: Yeah.

Ridge: The only good thing she’d ever done was, I don’t know, I guess give birth to finn.

Steffy: Oh, god. I can’t believe that monster gave birth to finn. I mean, finn is just such a good guy. So genuine and… god, he didn’t deserve any of this.

Ridge: No. But he’s got li now, right? So, that’s good. And I’ve got to believe that whatever deacon is selling him, he’s not buying.

Steffy: No. No, of course not. But deacon’s getting into his head. He is. And finn does have this weird connection to sheila.

Ridge: Why? What did she do? Nothing. She gave him life and then she almost took it away again. What is the connection? I don’t get it. Look, what if kelly and hayes had been there?

Steffy: No, no, no. Don’t even– don’t even say that. I don’T… sheila’s gone. She’s gone for good.

Sheila: I’m sorry that I startled you and made you faint.

Deacon: Honey, I wasn’t crazy. My eyes weren’t playing tricks on me. I knew what I saw at the crematorium.

Hope: No. No, it’s– it’s– it’s impossible.

Finn: I thought the same thing.

Deacon: After I saw the toes, I saw some text messages on sheila’s computer. They were with a woman named sugar.

Hope: Sugar?

Deacon: When lauren fenmore came to town, I asked her about it, okay? Because there’s no one who knows more about sheila than lauren. And when I mentioned the name sugar, you should have seen lauren’s face. She told me about how years ago, sheila tricked sugar into getting cosmetic surgery to look exactly like her. And eventually, sugar got sent to the– to the mental ward and everyone thought it was sheila.

Finn: Look, the– the two looked identical.

Deacon: Well, identical, except for the fact that sugar has ten toes. Sheila has nine.

Sheila: She wanted revenge. Sugar abducted me and she chained me up in an old warehouse.

Finn: Her plan was to break into my home, harm steffy and the kids and have sheila take the fall.

Hope: So, steffy didn’t kill sheila?

Finn: No.

Deacon: I mean, it all comes back to the toes. Those nine beautiful toes and that one missing digit.

Sheila: Yeah. I– look, I’m– I’m not proud of– of what I did to sugar. I’m not proud of a lot of things that I’ve done. Mistakes that I’ve made. But I’m– I’m a better person now. I’ve changed. And I’d– I’d never go after steffy. I’m– I’m not that person anymore.

Finn: And, look, I understand how you feel, hope. Even when deacon told me about sugar, I didn’t fully believe it until I saw sheila with my own eyes. And I– I– I can’t explain why, especially with everything that has happened in the past, but… I’m glad that we found you. And that I’m gonna be able to have a second chance with you because sheila’s my birth mother. And she’s alive. My birth mother’s alive.

[ Funky music ]

Deacon: You want some more water?

Finn: Yeah, that’d be good. You need to keep eating and drinking. You were in that warehouse a long time. I– I’d still like to get you to the hospital so we could check you out.

Sheila: No, I– I’ve got the most amazing accomplished doctor right here. I’m fine. I’m– I’m home.

Deacon: You’re alive.

Finn: I’m just glad we found you.

Sheila: Me too. I was so scared. I did everything I could to protect steffy and the kids.

Finn: Yeah, and– and we told you, all right? They’re okay.

Sheila: I– I didn’t– I didn’t care what she did to me. I just– I wanted to protect them.

Steffy: Kelly should be home any minute.

Liam: Oh, nice. It’s good we don’t have to worry about sheila anymore just when our daughter’s out with her friends.

Steffy: Huh. Yeah, tell me about it. I thought this morning, “god, I hope kelly doesn’t get a tummy ache from all the candy and ice cream.” My biggest worry, candy and ice cream.

Liam: Everything else good though? No other concerns?

Steffy: No, kelly’s just really excited to see you.

Liam: Oh, yeah. I’m excited to see her too. I, uh, I mean, I’m glad I got to see you for a second beforehand. I just wanted to check in. I mean, I know you’ve been dealing with a lot. I feel like maybe time has given you a chance to put the sheila stuff behind you.

Steffy: Trying. I mean, logically, there’s nothing wrong. There’s no reason to feel anxious, I– I’m just really worried about finn.

Liam: I guess I thought you and finn already dealt with all his sheila baggage.

Steffy: Well, no, I don’t– I don’t think it could be about that. I mean, sheila’s dead. How could it be about her?

Liam: Yeah, right.

Steffy: I just–

Liam: But?

Steffy: I don’t know, liam. I have this really weird feeling.

Liam: Like what? What’s the feeling? Like that finn is not over it? Or…

Steffy: Finn can’t be over it. Because of deacon. Everything that he’s saying.

Liam: Okay, yeah, which is– all of that is ridiculous.

Steffy: It’s ridiculous. It’s so, it’s so delusional. And finn told deacon to stop it and move on.

Liam: Well, clearly, deacon didn’T.

Steffy: Well, clearly. It’s really stressing out finn. I can see it. I can see it weighing on him. And– and I try to calm him down, but the way he was this morning, the way he was acting, and the way I feel right now, I know he’s not in a good place.

Sheila: We’ve got to find sugar. You’ve got to call the police. She’s gonna hurt steffy.

Finny: No, hey, we told you, okay? Everyone’s fine.

Sheila: No, no, no, no, you don’t– you don’t understand. She’s out there and she’s– she’s dangerous and they’re– they’re not gonna know because she– she looks like me. She’s got my face.

Deacon: We know. Yeah.

Sheila: No, she– she wants to hurt my family, to punish me. She wants me to go to jail for her crimes.

Finn: Yeah, well, that’s not going to happen, okay? Trust me. Right now, our focus is on you and making sure you’re okay.

Deacon: Sugar’s not going to hurt anybody again. Especially you.

Finn: Nobody will. And we’re going to make sure of it. At dot’s an ordinary pretzel just isn’t enough.

Steffy: Voicemail.

Liam: Are you not gonna leave a message?

Steffy: Already did.

Liam: Hey, look, uh, finn’s working, right? So maybe he’s just busy saving–

Steffy: A life.

Liam: I–

Steffy: Yeah.

Liam: Maybe that’s what’s going on for you though. Maybe it’s just the fact that finn is always in these life or death stakes situations.

Steffy: It doesn’t usually affect me like this.

Liam: No, I– I get that. But you’ve been under your own stress lately. And then you add finn and your concern for him to that, and it could compound and it could be a whole thing.

Kelly: Bye, becky! Thank you! I had fun.

Liam: Who is that?

Kelly: Daddy!

Liam: Ah! There’s my offspring.

Kelly: We went to a bead store. I learned how to make bracelets.

Liam: Ooh, that sounds fun.

Kelly: Want to make one? I can show you.

Liam: I was just thinking I want to make a bead bracelet, but first, something very important. I have to give my daughter a hug!

[ Liam laughs ]

Sheila: So, uh, how did you say you found me?

Deacon: It wasn’t easy.

Sheila: How did you know about sugar? You said lauren fenmore said something?

Deacon: Yeah, lauren was in town. She was visiting eric. Came into the restaurant. I told her about those text messages that I found on your laptop. And I also told her that i thought you were still alive.

Sheila: So lauren also thought that I was dead?

Finn: Yeah, everybody did.

Sheila: Well, she must have been thrilled about that.

Deacon: She came up with the information I needed. Pieced it together and it started to make sense.

Finn: And lauren explained who sugar was and how you guys looked alike and how she tried to frame you.

Deacon: That was the key. I mean, I wasn’t going crazy. I wasn’t seeing things. See, after the memorial service–

Sheila: Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait, wait. You had a memorial service?

Deacon: Saddest day in my life. Finn was there.

Sheila: You were? God, I feel awful that you guys thought that I was– I was dead and that you had to have a memorial service.

Finn: Well– well, deacon, he wanted to give you a proper goodbye.

Deacon: It’s a good thing I did because otherwise, we may never have found you. Might not have even known to look, but because of your, uh, beautiful nine toes, I started to piece it together.

Sheila: What are you saying? That me cutting off my toe somehow saved my life? It– it brought me home?

Deacon: Kind of.

[ Deacon and sheila laugh ]

Sheila: Okay. Fine lines? Make an appointment with this.

Steffy: You’re pretty good at this, liam.

Liam: Thank you. Had a good teacher.

Kelly: That’s a pretty one, daddy.

Liam: Well– well it’s for you, so I’m really glad you like it.

Kelly: I made this one for you. Next, I’ll make one for you, mommy.

Steffy: Thank you, sweetie.

Liam: Oh, my god! Wait, let’s trade. This is amazing. I love it.

Kelly: You didn’t read it.

Liam: What did I not read? Oh! I– I-l-y-L. Is this a secret code? Am I in some new club? What is this?

Kelly: It means I love you lots.

Liam: Oh! That’s so funny, because I love you lots. Come here!

[ Steffy laughs ] Whoa!

Steffy: Okay, sorry to interrupt, you fantastic artist, but kelly needs to wash up.

Kelly: Daddy’s not leaving?

Liam: Oh! Not yet.

Kelly: I’m so happy when we’re all together!

Liam: So am I!

Sheila: Oh, so… how did my toes save me? And you– you had a memorial service for me, and you were there. Why– why– why did you think I was dead? That I didn’t just skip town or something?

Deacon: We had good reason, though it didn’t make sense. It wasn’t ’til after the memorial when I really started putting it together. I was saying my final goodbyes, and I pressed the button.

Sheila: Wait, wait, wait. You pressed a button?

Deacon: At the crematorium.

Sheila: Oh, my god, I– what are– what are you talking about?

Deacon: I wanted to see you off through the end, so I went to the cremation. I, um… I kissed you on your head and I pressed the button to start the process, but before you went in, the sheet that was covering your body, it fell, and I saw the toes. I saw 10 toes, and it– it didn’t make any sense to me, because I– I’d seen your face there and at the morgue, and I tried to stop it, but I couldn’t stop it. I thought I was going insane. But then– then I realized once I talked to lauren, I–

Sheila: No, it’s– it was sugar.

Deacon: That’s when I started putting it together. I knew you never could have attacked steffy.

Sheila: Wait, you just told me that steffy and the kids were safe.

Finn: Yeah, they are. They are.

Deacon: I get it. Your head must be spinning. Imagine me after seeing the toes. I mean, I’m trying to figure this out, and I’m telling everybody that I think you’re still alive. I– I sounded like a madman.

Finn: Everyone thought he was. I mean, he wouldn’t let it go.

Deacon: I had moments where I doubted myself, so I dug in. I– I started looking at, you know, the texts, and that’s when I came up with the name sugar, which didn’t mean anything to me until I talked to lauren and she told me… about your history, and why sugar hates you, and it made sense to me that she would– she would want payback. I figured that she did something to you, that she locked you up somewhere. We had to find you, so I– I started going through your phone records and your– your credit card receipts.

Finn: And there was a charge at a convenience store in a strange part of town.

Deacon: So we drove there, and we started questioning people and showing your photo. And tom, thank god for tom.

Sheila: Who?

Deacon: Yeah, this homeless guy who saw your face, it was sugar.

Sheila: So you never gave up.

Sheila: Oh, wow. My love. And my son. You both saved my life. Thank you. So, uh– so, sugar?

Deacon: Sugar’S… not gonna hurt anyone ever again.

Sheila: So, sugar’s really dead. How?

Deacon: Must have been that night that you tried to stop her at the warehouse.

Finn: It was steffy. Steffy killed sugar, thinking it was you. Nothing comes close to this place in the morning.

Liam: Kelly’s, uh, she’s reading a book.

Steffy: Kelly loves her books.

Liam: Yeah.

Steffy: And her daddy.

[ Liam laughs ]

Liam: We got lucky. We have a very, very intelligent daughter, which she clearly gets from her mother.

[ Steffy laughs ]

Steffy: And her creativity from her uncle and her grandfather.

Liam: Hey. Actually, I’m glad she even shares that creativity with me. By the way, thank you for giving us all this time.

Steffy: No, it’s– it’s nice to see you having so much fun.

Liam: Yeah, and I know it’s– it’s complicated and weird. You and finn are married, and you live here, and you’ve got your own schedules and routines.

Steffy: Yeah, and we usually get back to each other, but–

Liam: Still hasn’t called you back, huh?

Steffy: No. It’s not like me to be worried about nothing.

Liam: Well, yeah, but you’ve been wound up tight for so long, it’s probably gonna take a while to just unwind, you know?

Steffy: You’re not wrong about that. Everything that finn and i went through, navigating so many challenges, all because of sheila. Everything that happened here, that night.

Liam: You mean where you were just defending yourself and your family? Yeah, I know.

Steffy: Look, finn gets all of that, he does. But I have to say, you know, his connection to his mother at the beginning, it was confusing and complex. I talked to hope about it. I said, I hated seeing finn in so much pain.

Liam: While being in pain yourself.

Steffy: I just don’t know how much more of sheila our marriage could have endured.

Sheila: So… steffy killed sugar.

Finn: Yeah.

Deacon: Obviously, we didn’t know it at the time. The police identified the body, they took it to the morgue, believing it was you.

Sheila: What do you mean about me? What are you– what are you talking about?

Deacon: Sugar went to finn and steffy’S. She broke in.

Finn: Steffy was alone. And she thought it was you. The power was out and she grabbed a knife to defend herself. And when sugar lunged at her, she stabbed sugar in the heart. So– so… steffy believed that she killed me. Everyone believed that. And you, finn.

Finn: That’s not what happened. Okay, my wife didn’t kill my mother. My– my mother is alive.

Sheila: You’ve just called me your mother.

Finn: That’s what you are. You’re my birth mother. And losing you, it… it made me realize that… this connection… it is real. And it killed me to think, despite everything that has happened in the past, I wouldn’t get to… to see you again. My mother didn’t die. And you didn’t attack steffy. You tried to save her. Just like you did with kelly at the beach that day. And that is who you are working to be. That’s who you are now, right? That’s how much you care. And I know that you’ve been saying that you’ve changed, and– and deacon, he’s been– you know, he’s been saying it too, but… I believe you. Mom, I believe in you.

Sheila: My son.

Finn: Yeah.

Sheila: Oh, my precious baby boy. I love you. I love you so, so much. I just– I never want to be apart from you again.

Finn: Look, I don’t want that either. And I won’t be. I promise you. Okay? I promise.

Sheila: Oh, look at you.

Steffy: Sheila carter is now a bad memory. She can’t hurt us. She won’t be part of finn’s life ever again.

Announcer: Here’s a look ahead.

Liam: Sheila doesn’t have power over you.

Steffy: Or finn.

Hope: No. Sheila.

Sheila: It’s really good– good to see you, hope.

Finn: It’s the truth. She’s alive. My birth mother is alive.

[ Dramatic music ]

Finn: We should take her to the hospital. She should be on I.V. Fluids.

Deacon: You heard her. She doesn’t wanna go. Look, besides, she’s got her own personal doc looking after her. I mean, isn’t that enough for now?

Finn: Deacon–

Deacon: Look, I know, I get it. I know that you’re worried. I am too. Look at her. I mean, she’s eating that pizza like it’s going out of style. God, I miss that woman.

Sheila: I missed you too.

[ Deacon chuckles ] Both of you. Uh, I heard everything.

Deacon: Are you, uh, eavesdropping?

Sheila: I’m dehydrated. I’m– I’m not deaf. And I really appreciate both of you and your concern.

Finn: We just want you to be okay.

Sheila: I am because I’m home. I’m safe. I’m– I’m with my two favorite guys in the world. Thank you for finding me. For rescuing me because I… I don’t know how much longer I would’ve lasted.

Deacon: Hey, hey, hey. No more of that talk. You’re alive. You’re gonna be your old self in no time and that is the most important thing.

Finn: Deacon’s right. Having you back is everything.

Steffy: Thank you.

Liam: So, how great. They had a table for all three of us.

Steffy: I know. I’m actually surprised ivy wanted me to join. I thought you wanted him all to yourself.

Ivy: Well, they do say three’s a crowd.

Steffy: Right, right.

[ Ivy clears her throat ]

Ivy: So, steffy, have you missed me?

Steffy: Of course, I missed you. And clearly you missed this guy, if that kiss was any indication. So ivy, you have to tell me. Was it worth it?

Ivy: What?

Steffy: Flying all the way from australia just to plant one on this guy?

Liam: Well, this is fun.

Steffy: So, what’s the purpose of your trip? Catching up with old flames?

Ivy: Uh, partly, yes. But I’m also here to visit another very handsome man.

Steffy: Wow, you think you know someone.

Ivy: Oh, well, you do know this one. Actually, very well. It’s your grandfather.

Steffy: Oh.

Ivy: You know, I wanted to see him after his health scare and make sure he was doing better and… god, he looks great.

Steffy: Yeah, he does. And apparently, you think liam looks great, too.

Deacon: That’s gotta be a record. You want me to get you another pizza? Maybe some anchovies or whatever you want? Anything?

Finn: Maybe some fruit instead. It’ll help with her rehydration.

Deacon: Yeah, I got bananas. I got strawberries, watermelon.

Finn: That’d be great. And then some more water, too.

Deacon: Yeah, yeah, I’m on it.

Finn: Let me check your pulse. Um, how are you feeling on a scale of one to ten, physically, mentally, emotionally?

Sheila: Physically, like a five, six. I just feel really weak.

Finn: Okay, well, that’s why we wanted to take you to the hospital, so we could evaluate you.

Sheila: Finn, I appreciate the concern, but I don’t want to be here. I want to be in my little home with deacon because I’m going to get much better faster. Don’t worry.

Deacon: Hey, he’s your son. Of course, he’s going to worry. So am I. Although, I have to say, beautiful, you’re looking a hell of a lot better than when we found you.

Sheila: I’m just so thankful that it’s over.

Finn: What did happen?

Sheila: Sugar happened. Sugar happened. For people who feel limited

Liam: Thank you. This looks lovely. How about we change the subject? Maybe, um, anything.

Ivy: Okay, but before we do, before we do, I just–

Liam: Okay.

Ivy: Look, I know that– I know that it’s been a while since we’ve seen each other. And in some ways, we’ve changed a lot. We’re different people. We all are, but you, liam, you’re still the same beautiful man inside and out that I remember. You’re so kind and caring and sexy as hell. And as far as I’m concerned, I don’t understand why the women in this city aren’t beating down the door of the city’s most eligible bachelor. Because if I lived here, I know I sure would be.

Steffy: Wow.

Sheila: There’s something that I– I just don’t understand.

Deacon: What?

Sheila: How did you and finn know about sugar?

Deacon: I ran into an old friend of yours, lauren fenmore. She told me about sugar, but we can get into specifics of that later.

Finn: How was sugar able to do what she did without anyone knowing?

Deacon: It’s okay, take your time.

Finn: Yeah, I mean, we realize it’s still really fresh.

Sheila: Remember when I told you I was slipping out to see someone from my past?

Deacon: Yeah.

Sheila: Well, it all started with these text messages. I should have just ignored it, but it wouldn’t have stopped her anyway.

Deacon: Her being sugar. That’s who the text messages from?

Sheila: I– I went to meet up with her a couple of times.

Finn: What happened?

Sheila: Nothing. She never showed up. And then weeks later, I’m– I’m running errands and sugar abducted me, took me to that warehouse and chained me up.

Finn: Odd.

Sheila: I’ve never been so afraid in my life. Seeing sugar after all those years and the rage in her eyes and it was all directed at me. She said she’d only gotten out a little while before and– and she had just been waiting for this day, this day that she, she imagined and she planned. And she just– she just wanted– she wanted payback. She wanted payback. Stuck at the dmv,

Ivy: Maybe, maybe I’m being too forward.

Steffy: Hm. Ya think?

Ivy: But I mean, why should I– why should I have to hide my feelings for you? You know, we’ve both changed. We’re both evolved and I’m convinced that we would be good for each other.

Steffy: Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah. He’s remarkable. He’s amazing. He’s all the things. He’s also my daughter’s father. On that note, we need to go see kelly. She wants to see you. So, if you’ll excuse us, we got to go.

Ivy: You know what? It does. It feels like that time. It was– it was so good to see you.

Liam: It was so good seeing you too and you look so beautiful.

Ivy: Thanks. So you said several times.

Steffy: Okay. On that note, we should…

Liam: Uh, yeah. Okay.

Ivy: Bye. Bye.

Liam: Wow. Bye.

Ivy: Call me, okay?

Liam: Yeah. I– I– I will.

Steffy: Bye. Goodbye. Bye. Ooh. Being subtle is definitely not her strong suit. Oh, neither is mine.

[ Steffy laughs ] Us forrester women. You gotta love it. Hey.

[ Liam chuckles ]

Deacon: Sheila… what exactly did sugar do to you?

[ Sheila grunts ]

[ Sheila pants ]

Sheila: Sugar, you let me go or else.

Sugar: What, sheila? What? Because I’m in control. Now, I’m in charge.

Sheila: But not for long.

Sugar: You’re being so ridiculous, you know that? Nobody knows you’re missing. They’re not even looking for you.

Sheila: They will.

Sugar: By then it’ll be too late. Much too late.

Sheila: What does that mean?

Sugar: I’ve been holding on to this anger for so many years. Livid at the way that you double-crossed me. You were supposed to be my friend. Sheila, my friend. And you tricked me into getting plastic surgery to look like you so I could take the wrap for your crimes. You ruined my life. But that stops– stops today. I’ve been counting down the years, the months, the days to get revenge. That’s all I could think about. Making you pay for all the years I spent in that loony bin when you– you were free living your life in los angeles and genoa city. You didn’t even care about the hell hole that I was in.

Sheila: You were arrested for what you did to lauren fenmore’s son.

Sugar: None of that would have happened if it weren’t for you.

Sheila: What are you planning?

Sugar: It was really quite ingenious because I get to commit crimes looking like you. First place I’m going to strike is steffy forrester’s beach house. Steffy’s gonna be your first victim.

Sheila: No! I tried to stop her. I tried to stop sugar from hurting steffy and– and the children. Keep them protected from that mad woman, but… she just, she was so obsessed with getting back at me and she didn’t care what she had to do. She was… she was just determined to make me pay for it. She almost got away with it too.

Deacon: It’s okay.

Sheila: She almost did, though.

Deacon: It’s okay. Schwarzkopf

[ Steffy chuckles ]

Steffy: Oh, okay, bye. That was becky. She’s dropping off kelly soon.

Liam: Okay, great.

Steffy: You should have heard kelly in the background. She is really excited to see you.

Liam: Aw. Well, not as excited as I am to see her.

Steffy: Hey, I just want to say, um, thank you. Thank you for spending time with kelly. You really are an incredible father. You’re so attentive and loving. And I know you’re the same way with beth.

Liam: Well, shucks. Between you and ivy, my ego’s about to pop.

[ Steffy chuckles ]

Steffy: Okay, only I am not trying to make a play for you.

Liam: Fair.

Steffy: So do you want to see her again? Okay, I will say this. I do agree with everything she said about you. Like I said, you are incredible.

Liam: Well, don’t let finn hear you saying that. Speaking of which, is he, um, is he going to come home and be upset that I’m sitting here talking to you? I don’t know.

Steffy: No, he’ll be totally okay with you seeing kelly.

Liam: Okay, okay. Yo, what was that look?

Steffy: Oh, ah, nothing. It’s, um… finn was, uh, he was a little quiet this morning and last night and I just, I had a little weird feeling and when I get like that, it’s, it’s always about sheila. But this time, I know it’s not. Because she’s gone. She’s out of our lives forever.

Sheila: It was– it was diabolical what– what she was planning. It was so cruel.

Sugar: See, I’m going to strike where it hurts the most. Steffy and those brats of hers. Everyone’s going to think that you killed your son’s wife, the mother of your grandson.

Sheila: ‘Cause I would never hurt them. You can’T.

Sugar: Oh, yeah, but I can. And when I’m done, they’re going to lock you up and they’re going to throw away the key. Your precious son. He’s not going to want anything to do with you ever again. You’re going to get what you deserve.

Sheila: You may look like me, but you don’t sound like me. Really?

[ Sugar clears her throat ]

[ Imitating sheila ] How about now?

[ Sheila gasps ]

Sheila: Sugar. Just listen to me. Do whatever you want to me. You can torture me, you can kill me. I– I– I don’t care. But don’t harm steffy and those precious children. Please, don’t hurt them.

Sugar: Tonight, steffy forrester dies. And you spend the rest of your miserable life behind bars.

Sheila: No!

[ Sugar grunts ] No! No! Sugar, no! No! Don’t go! Don’t hurt them! Don’t! Don’t hurt steffy! No! No! Help! Help me! No! No! Help!

Finn: Everything that you did to try and protect steffy and how hard you fought–

Sheila: Of course, I tried to protect steffy. I– I love you, I love steffy, I love the children more than I love myself.

Deacon: That’s never been more obvious, babe.

Sheila: You’re sure? That steffy and hayes are all right? You told me they were, but I, I…

Finn: Look, everybody’s fine. Okay, they’re fine, and– and we’ll– we’ll explain that– that later. Okay, but right now, we need to take care of you, okay? You– you have been through the unthinkable. You’ve been terrorized and– and brutalized by this woman, and yet… through it all, your love for me and– and my wife and my kids, it shows–

Sheila: I would do anything to protect you, steffy and those children, son. I would do anything.

Finn: I believe you, mom.

Sheila: Oh.

Finn: I believe you.

Finn: Whoa. Hey, mom? Mom, stay with us. Mom, stay with us.

Deacon: I’m so happy to see you. There it is. There’s that smile. Baby, I knew you were alive. Everyone thought I was crazy, but I knew you were alive and it’s because of those nine toes. Oh, sheila. Sheila, I love you so much. I love you, baby girl.

Ridge: And that’s it for sales. In other news, I was tying my shoe this morning and both my legs fell off. The weirdest thing. Hi.

Steffy: Hi, um–

Ridge: Where were you? You’ve been like this the whole meeting.

Steffy: Sorry. I’m sorry. It’S…

Ridge: What’s going on?

Steffy: It’s nothing. I just, um… I called finn and I just… I haven’t heard back from him.

Ivy: Well, I hope I didn’t overstep by kissing you like that.

[ Liam chuckling ]

Liam: Beautiful, talented, accomplished woman takes my face into her hands. No, I don’t think overstepping is the word I would use.

Ivy: Oh, my god, it’s so nice seeing you, liam.

Liam: It’s been too long.

Ivy: You haven’t aged a bit.

[ Both laughing ] In fact, maybe even better looking than I remembered.

Ivy: Full disclosure, I have been thinking about doing that for some time now.

Liam: Really? Uh, well, uh, it makes sense. I suppose kissing me over a video conference call would have been quite a challenge.

Ivy: Yes. And especially because you were married. You were off the market, remember?

Liam: Yeah. That too.

Ivy: But now that you’re not, I mean… I mean, why do you think I really extended my layover in l .A.?

Liam: Wait, no, I thought you… you came to see your uncle eric.

Ivy: Oh, yeah. No, I did, but, you know, also to, um… to have lunch with you and just catch up a bit, hear how life’s been treating you.

Liam: Oh, boy. Uh, how much time do you have?

Ivy: I’ve got all the time you need. You know… I know it was ages ago, liam, but… I still appreciate all of the wonderful times that we shared.

Ridge: So something still feels off with finn?

Steffy: Yeah, yeah, I just feel a little on edge. Deacon keeps dredging up everything that happened the night sheila died, and he’s just putting these crazy theories into finn’s head.

Ridge: Why does finn listen to him? Deacon is an idiot. And your husband’s a doctor. He’s probably saving somebody right now.

[ Steffy sighs ]

Finn: Okay. Easy does it.

[ Sheila panting ]

Finn: We need to get her to a hospital, deacon. She’s dehydrated. Here. Try to give her more of this. All right? Take it easy. Just small sips.

Deacon: Okay, that’s good, that’s good, that’s good. All right. Sheila, can you tell us what happened? Choose advil liqui-gels for faster, stronger

Liam: So that’s, uh, that’s kelly, she’s the oldest. And that is beth.

Ivy: Oh, my– they have grown up so much. They’re so adorable.

Liam: It happens fast. It’s crazy.

Ivy: Wow. Oh, liam, I just– I bet you’re the cutest dad.

Liam: Well, I, you know, mostly humiliate them, but they are my two favorite people on the planet, so that tracks.

Ivy: I can really hear how proud you are of your girls. It’s so sweet.

Liam: We’ve all done a pretty good job with the, you know, the co-parenting and splitting time between households. Obviously, the plan was not to be split from both their mothers, but…

Ivy: Right, I mean, it happens.

Liam: No, it absolutely happens, and the kids are handling it better than I am. It’s just, uh… you know, hope and I worked on our marriage for a long time, only to have it implode. And then steffy is now happily married to finn, and they’ve got a kid together. Oh, by the way, they live in my old place on the cliff.

Ivy: No.

Liam: Yeah.

Ivy: Oh, I love that house.

Liam: I know.

Ivy: Wow, I often think about that new year’s eve we spent there together. Do you remember?

Liam: Yeah, that was a fun night.

Ivy: The goofy hats. The fireworks on the ocean. Oh, so special. We had a lot of fun nights together, you and me.

Liam: Yeah, we did.

Ivy: It’s funny, in some ways it feels so long ago, doesn’t it? Just thinking about all the twists and turns it took to get us to this point.

Liam: Yeah.

Ivy: Tell me what it’s been like for you, liam.

Liam: Um, I mean, you kind of know. It’S… I just ended two major relationships. I, uh… I lost my way, and then I lost– yeah.

Ivy: It was their loss, too. Liam, I hope you know what an extraordinary man you are. There’s a lot of people out here who really love you.

Ridge: Sheila’s gone. Finn understands that, right?

Steffy: Look, I know that she’s gone. But I still feel her, okay? I feel her around me. It’s like, I don’t know, she’s like in the air or something, and it makes me feel uneasy. It’s a creepy feeling.

Ridge: Look at me, look at me. She’s not in the air. She’s nowhere here. She’s– she’s gone. She’ll be gone out of your life, forever.

Finn: Deacon, we need to get her out of here.

Deacon: We need to get the chain off first. Move her to this side, okay? I need to whack this thing. Ready?

Finn: Yeah.

[ Deacon grunts ]

Deacon: This isn’t gonna work. Damn it. Finn, I’m gonna need something smaller, thinner. What? Oh, this is perfect. Okay. All right, you ready?

[ Chain grinding ]

[ Deacon grunts ] Lord, I could use a little help here. Thanks. What do you say, babe? You ready to go home? It was one thing when my mom got alzheimer’s,

Ivy: I– I hope you know how incredible you are, liam. I mean, come on, how many men would marry a girl to stop her from getting deported?

Liam: You know, in retrospect, I think that was illegal.

Ivy: Oh, no, it was very illegal, but that’s not the point. The point is, that was such an act of kindness. You didn’t have to do that, but you did it anyway. You made such an impact on my life, liam. From our new year’s kiss, to pulling me out of the river in paris. Do you remember that?

Liam: Yeah, wow.

Ivy: Such a wild ride.

Liam: We sure did.

Ivy: I know it got messy, and maybe there are some things that you would like to take back, and maybe there are some things that I would too. And, god, I’m sure hope and steffy would say the exact same thing, but they were lucky. They were lucky to be loved by you, liam. Don’t doubt yourself. Any woman would be blessed to have you.

Steffy: You’re right, finn is a rational person. I mean, he’s built his whole career on logic and science. Like, he knows sheila’s dead, but deacon keeps messing with him.

Ridge: Well, he should block him on his phone.

Steffy: I wish he would do that. God, how many times does she interfere in our marriage? Thank god, she’s not alive.

Ridge: Yeah, well, even from the dead, she’s interfering, so.

Steffy: Yeah, but she–

[ Steffy sighs ] I have pleaded to deacon. I told him to leave finn alone.

Ridge: The guy doesn’t listen, you know he doesn’T.

Steffy: You know what I’m gonna do? I’m gonna go there.

Ridge: Go where? Il giardino?

Steffy: Yeah. I’m gonna tell him to stop with this crazy theory that sheila carter is alive. Ridiculous.

Finn: Pupils are slightly dilated. She’s malnourished. We’re gonna need to get her some real nutrients. We’re lucky she survived.

Deacon: Sheila, who did this to you? Think back, who the hell brought you here, put you in those damn chains? Was it somebody from your past? Was it someone named sugar?

[ Sheila panting ]

Finn: Is that right? It was sugar.

Sheila: Su– su–

Deacon: What are you trying to say?

Sheila: Su– sug– sug– sugar!

Deacon: Okay. Okay.

Sheila: It was sugar!

Deacon: Calm down. It’s okay. It’s okay. Schwarzkopf

Ivy: It’s true, you know, I– I often wonder what my life would be like if I hadn’t left california.

Liam: Well, now’s your chance to find out.

[ Ivy chuckles ]

Ivy: If I didn’t have to catch a flight, I could think of a million things I’d like to do with you. Uh, wow, I did not mean for it to sound like that.

Liam: Oh, yeah, no, I know that, yeah, you were just, I, um… listen, we had all varieties of fun, so–

Ivy: We did, we did. It’s because you’re very fun to hang out with.

Liam: So are you.

Ivy: And not just because you’re easy on the eyes.

Liam: You understand that the view from where I’m sitting is pretty spectacular as well, right?

Ivy: Well, I’m glad you think so.

Liam: Always was. It was so many years ago.

Ivy: I know. I know, we were practically kids. Oh, there’s still some of my favorite memories, though. I can still see everything so clearly. I hope you haven’t forgotten.

I’ll never forget

when we first met

wasn’t so long ago

it had gotten late

and I was lost

and you said not to cry

you gave me that face

who’s that man?

Believe in me

I’m a real good guy

oh

won’t you follow me home

to the place where we belong

follow me home

just give me your hand

when you feel like you can’t

start again

just hold your breath

and count to ten

today’s the day

I finally found the one

to follow me home

’cause today’s the day

I finally found the one

I finally, finally found

to follow me home

Ivy: So young and carefree. You know… liam… I’ve always had a little piece of you in my heart.

Server: Hey. How’s it going?

Steffy: Have you seen deacon?

Server: No, I haven’t, actually.

Steffy: It’s fine, I’ll catch him later.

Server: Okay. Take care.

Ivy: Well, I…

[ Ivy chuckles ] I think I’ve given you enough to think about for one day.

[ Liam chuckles ] But I mean it, liam. Any woman would be lucky to have you. Including me.

Steffy: My cousin comes to town and doesn’t even tell me? Did you come all this way just to plant a big one on liam? Cute.

Deacon: Sugar. You said sugar.

Finn: What– what about her?

Deacon: Sugar kidnapped you. She brought you here?

Finn: What did she do to you?

Deacon: Sheila, how did she find you?

Sheila: No… no…

Deacon: Was she alone? Did she have somebody help her?

Sheila: No, no…

Deacon: Sheila, what is it? You don’t have to be afraid.

Sheila: S– st– steffy.

Finn: Steffy?

[ Indistinct ]

[ Sheila sobbing ] What about my wife?

Sheila: House… your house.

Deacon: House?

Sheila: Your house.

Finn: My house?

Sheila: Steffy… sug– sugar… hu– hurt… steffy…

[ Sheila stuttering ] Kill!

Deacon: Su– sugar wanted to kill steffy, right?

[ Sheila stuttering ]

Sheila: I’m sorry. I’m– I’m so– I’m sorry. I tried– I tried to stop sugar from hurting steffy. I love you. I love you all so much and I just– I just– I– I couldn’t stop her.

Deacon: Sheila, it’s okay. It’s okay. You don’t have to be afraid.

Finn: Come on. Listen. Listen to me, okay? Hey, hey, no, you don’t need to be upset. You don’t need to be upset. Everybody’s fine.

Sheila: Steffy…

Finn: Yes. Yes, steffy’s fine. You don’t have to worry about me or her or the kids, okay?

Deacon: Sheila, everyone’s okay.

[ Sheila sobbing ]

Sheila: A– alive?

Finn: Yes, steffy’s alive.

Sheila: Oh…

Finn: Yeah.

Sheila: Thank god. I love you so much. I love you all so much.

Finn: Mom. Mom, you’re safe now, okay? And I’m gonna take care of you. You’re gonna be all right, okay? Okay, I thought I lost you. But I didn’T. I thought I was never gonna see you again. But you’re here, mom. You’re here. You’re alive. You’re alive. It’s gonna be okay. You’re here. It’s okay. Hey, hey, it’s all right. It’s all right. It’s okay. It’s all right.

[ Dramatic music ]

Deacon: My god, it’s really you.

Finn: Mom, mom, it’s me. It’s finn. Can you hear me? Mom, can you hear me? Mom?

Deacon: Finn, is she alive?. Finn!

Steffy: Hey, babe. Just, uh, checking in, seeing if you are okay. Just been feeling a little uneasy after everything. All right, call me when you can. I miss hearing your voice. I love you.

[ Hope clears throat ] Hope, hey.

Hope: Everything all right?

Steffy: Yeah, I– I hope so.

Hope: Can’t get a hold of finn?

Steffy: He’s not picking up.

Hope: Hm, I’m sure he’s probably with a patient.

Steffy: Probably. Yeah.

Waitress: Wanna settle the bill?

Liam: Uh, no, thank you. Actually, I think I’m gonna be adding to it in a moment.

Waitress: Somebody else joining you?

Liam: Yeah, yeah. Somebody pretty special. Actually, somebody I haven’t seen in a really long… long time. There she is. Oh, my god. It’s been so long, ivy.

Ivy: Too long.

Ivy: Well, thank you for meeting me.

Liam: Uh, yeah, of course.

Liam: You know, I really wasn’t sure if you’d be interested.

Liam: Uh, come on. Come on.

Ivy: I’m just– I’m being– I’m being vulnerable, here.

Liam: So, um, what are you– what are you doing in L.A.?

Ivy: Well, not L.A. Exactly. I’m just passing through. But I made sure I scheduled an insanely long layover so i could spend a little time with my uncle eric.

Liam: Oh, my god, he must’ve been so thrilled to see you.

Ivy: Mm-hmm, yeah, he’s already tried convincing me to move back. He actually said there’s a huge void in the, uh, in the jewelry department.

Liam: Uh, yeah, there is and he should be offering you, like, a bazillion dollar contract.

Ivy: Oh, a bazillion?

Liam: Bazillion.

Ivy: Well, we didn’t get that far in the negotiations.

Liam: Ah, shame.

Ivy: Honestly, I’m just so happy to see him doing better and he just looks so healthy.

Liam: Yeah, it is. It’s a– it’s a huge relief.

Ivy: Mm-hmm.

Liam: What’s your secret?

Ivy: Well, what do you mean?

Liam: You just look so happy and beautiful.

Steffy: Yeah, I’m sure you’re right. I know when it gets crazy here, I can’t even pick up the phone and I’m not even saving lives, so.

Hope: I’m sure he’ll be in touch when he can.

Steffy: I know.

Hope: I mean, you– you have to admit, though, I mean, it must be a nice feeling, right?

Steffy: What?

Hope: Just knowing that a lot of people rely on your husband. You know, whatever he’s up to, I’m sure he is making a really big difference in someone’s life.

Steffy: Yeah, I know he is. He’s always dealing with a life or death situation.

Hope: Yeah, so, whoever is in finn’s care, they’re in capable and caring hands.

Deacon: Tell me we’re not too late. Finn, her eyes. Look at her eyes.

Finn: Mom. Mom, it’s me. It’s finn. It’s finn. You’re alive. You’re alive.

Ivy: You know, sometimes I do think about moving back to L.A. I did love it here.

Liam: Great, it’s settled. No take-backs.

Ivy: Yeah. Wait, what are you doing?

Liam: I’m, uh, calling your uncle eric. I wanna tell him to give you a corner office–

Ivy: No, no, no, please don’T.

Ivy: Uh, no one knows better how busy I am than eric, okay? There’s– my life is very, very busy in sydney. Too much to walk away from. But, you know, we’ll see. Never say never. Anyway, enough about me. How are you doing?

Liam: Uh, you– you know, I’m hanging in there.

Ivy: Yeah. Yeah, I was– I was sorry to hear about you and hope.

Liam: Uh, thanks. It’s okay. You know, it’s, um, it wasn’t easy to go through, but I think there are good things on the horizon. I mean, I’m– I’m– I’m, uh, concentrating on my work and– and my kids and, um, you know, who knows, maybe it’ll– it’s just preparing me for the next thing.

Ivy: Maybe someone from the past, even. After all, I did hear that, uh, that thomas left hope.

Liam: Uh, yeah, I can confirm that is true.

Ivy: And that benefits you, maybe. Do you see yourself going back to hope?

Steffy: Babe? Breakfast. You hungry?

Finn: Oh, um, no, I’m good. I’ll just– I’ll grab something later.

Steffy: Hey, you were like this last night. Quiet, distracted. Is it a work thing? You wanna bounce ideas off of me?

Finn: Thanks. I, um, right now I have more questions than answers, but hopefully that’ll change soon and when it does, you’ll be the first to know.

Hope: Sorry about that. There was a bit of a holdup at customs. So, any other questions?

Steffy: No, I think we are good. Everything looks on target. Um… actually, I do have one more question. Uh, how you doing?

Hope: You don’t mean with hope for the future, do you? You mean…

Steffy: You. How are you doing?

Hope: Well, it has been a bit of an adjustment since thomas and douglas aren’t in los angeles, but, uh, career-wise, I’m feeling rather positive. I think revamping hope for the future with rj, zende, luna, it’s been a really wonderful thing. So, I’m trying to focus on what I can control. The change has been challenging, but I have to believe that something good will come of it.

Steffy: Well, the line has been incredible. What about you? Have you, uh… I mean, are you seeing anyone?

Hope: Seriously, steffy? Thomas hasn’t been gone that long. Wait. What, are you hoping that liam and I get back together?

Deacon: You’re gonna be fine, baby. Just fine. Finn’s gonna take real good care of you. Oh, my god.

Finn: What?

Deacon: The chain. Any suggestions?

Sheila: Help me. Help me. Help me. Entresto is the #1 heart failure brand Harry & david makes mother’s day easy. Share a gift, made with love, with the mom in your life. Choose from hundreds of stunning baskets and towers. It’s the perfect way to say thank you – for everything. Harry & david. Life is a gift. Share more.

Liam: Oof, uh… could I see myself back with hope?

Ivy: Well, it– it seems like she’s available again.

Liam: Yeah, but I– I– I don’t think either of us are in a place where we wanna jump back in. Or just– how about– I– I don’t know. I don’t know what the future holds.

Ivy: Okay. Yeah, that’s fair enough.

Liam: I mean, I’ll– I’ll always care about hope, obviously. We– we have a child together, so there’s that.

Ivy: Yeah, well, like you do with steffy.

Liam: Yeah, no, I’m very, uh, I’m very fortunate that– that each of my girls belong to an incredible woman, um, and– and I’m thankful to hope and steffy just for being so cool about the co-parenting stuff and– and being such great role models to kids.

Ivy: Well, I’m sure they’re thankful for you, too. I mean, I know I would be. Any woman would. Liam, I hope you know that a lot of people think you’re pretty fantastic.

Hope: Yes, liam and I have been spending more time together, but that doesn’t mean that we’re… okay, look, all you need to know is that we have had some much needed conversations. Yeah, thankfully, the anger and resentment on both sides has calmed down a little, or at least it’s starting to, and I’m very, very grateful for that. I think it’s important to move past that, especially for beth’s sake. I want her to see her parents getting along, and I want to have a good relationship with her father.

Steffy: So you gonna make a play for liam?

Hope: You know, steffy, maybe you shouldn’t worry so much about liam and me. Maybe you should focus that energy on finn.

Finn: That’s what we’re gonna do, okay? We’re gonna help you. Are you in any pain? Deacon, we need to get her hydrated. Can you find something?

Deacon: I’m on it.

Finn: Okay. Let’s try to get you up. Okay? Okay, it’s okay. Sip on that, I got you. Take it slow.

Deacon: What’s– what’s wrong with her? Okay, easy girl, okay.

Finn: Okay. Struggling with the highs and lows of bipolar 1?

Liam: Hey, ivy forrester. Um… if I didn’t know any better, I might possibly think that you were almost flirting with me?

Ivy: Oh! Well, there’s no almost about it, actually. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’ll dial it back, I promise.

Liam: No, don’T. Mm-mm, no– no dialing. Don’t dial.

Ivy: I– I’m sorry. I’m not– I’m not trying to be forward. It’s just…

Liam: It’s just what?

Ivy: I, uh, whoo… I, um… I think about you a lot, liam. I haven’t forgotten all of the good times that we’ve shared, and… how close we became. And how close I wish we’d become. You know, I think I remember that most of all. How great it felt kissing you.

Steffy: Okay, well, they’re gonna send over the spring-summer collection, but we’re not gonna be paying additional fees, okay? Wonderful. Thank you. Okay. Where were we? Oh, yes. Finn. My focus is on him, my children and my family.

Hope: Okay. I just mean, you know, whatever happens between liam and me, I mean, it really shouldn’t matter to you, right?

Steffy: He is my daughter’s father.

Hope: I know. I just think in the grand scheme of things, because not really any of your business and you have bigger things to focus on. It’s just you’ve been through so much lately, and I mean, everything that happened with sheila…

Steffy: Yeah, it was extremely challenging. But we can finally put it behind us. Sheila’s gone. She’s dead. She’s never coming back.

Finn: Deacon, we’ve gotta get this off. There’s only so much I can do here.

Deacon: What can we do for her right now?

Finn: She’s malnourished, dehydrated. We need to get her to a hospital. Oh, sheila.

Deacon: Oh, sheila, sheila.

Finn: Sheila, sheila.

Deacon: Give me some more water. Okay, easy. Come on. Okay, come on, come on.

Finn: Slow.

Deacon: Okay. Okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Deacon: There she is. There’s my beautiful girl. Everyone said I was crazy. Hell, I thought I was crazy myself, but I never stopped believing that you were alive.

Deacon: We gotta get over there right now.

Finn: Look, we don’t know what’s in that building.

Deacon: Sheila! Sheila could be over there.

Finn: You’re sure you saw that woman go into the building?

Tom: Oh, absolutely. I never forget a face.

Deacon: You heard screaming coming from over there?

Tom: Until it stopped. Hear a lot of weird things around here.

Finn: Do you know what’s in that building?

Tom: Beats me. It’s been vacant since before I was here. I was told to stay away from that building. It’d be wise to do the same.

[ Gunshots ]

[ Tires screeching ] Well, good luck, fellas. You’re gonna need it.

[ Police siren wailing ]

Deacon: We doing this?

Finn: We don’t have a choice. There’s a chance that sheila’s in that building, we need to go.

Deacon: Yeah. Let’s go.

Ridge: Well, I gotta tell you, I’m impressed with hope and her team. They didn’t miss a beat with thomas taking a little time off.

Brooke: Hopefully, it stays that way.

Ridge: Zende, rj, they’re doing a great job. What a great team they are. And, um, I don’t know. Maybe that is the future of forrester. What do you think, steffy? Hey. Hi.

Steffy: Oh, hi. Yes, um…

Ridge: Where’d you go?

Steffy: I– I was thinking about finn. I mean, he was… he was pretty quiet last night and this morning. We didn’t have time to get into it, I, uh… I just hope he’s okay.

Liam: Deacon is usually here for the lunch rush.

Bill: Were you hoping to get our meals comped by your ex-lowlife-in-law?

Liam: Maybe if I were alone.

Bill: Meaning not with me.

Liam: Yeah. Yeah, the guy who tried to lure sheila to prison?

Bill: Prison was way too good for that animal. Not to mention a waste of taxpayer money keeping her locked up. Definitely better off dead.

Liam: Well, on the bright side, we get to come here as often as we want without running into her.

Bill: Mm. I’ll drink to that.

[ Bill chuckles ]

Liam: Did you get a chance to look over that contract I sent you?

Bill: Yeah. How’d you come to agree to those terms?

Liam: Oh, well, it’s this new trick I’ve been trying. I call it honesty and plain dealing.

[ Bill pretends to vomit ] The truth is, they were already psyched about the multimedia strategy. All I had to do was convince them it ain’t gonna come cheap.

Bill: Great job.

Liam: Well, thank you. I guess I’M… I don’t know. My priorities are narrowing. I’m just focused on my kids and my career right now.

Bill: Glad to hear it.

Liam: Yeah. So are steffy and hope. Waffling back and forth between the two of them all those years, it wasn’t good for them, but it also wasn’t good for me. And I… I don’t want to do that anymore.

Bill: I’ll drink to that, too.

Ridge: So, you are worried about finn.

Steffy: Just a weird feeling.

Brooke: Because he’s been quiet?

Steffy: Like there’s something on his mind.

Ridge: I know. We all have that, right? Is it… did you ask him about it?

Steffy: I just figured it was, you know, work or a patient, but I can’t stop thinking about it. I always know when something’s off with finn, even when I have no idea what it is.

[ Deacon coughs ]

Finn: Tried looking up the address in here, but no reception. I don’t know–

Deacon: Sheila!

Finn: What this place is.

Deacon: Sheila! I’m gonna open this.

[ Deacon grunts ] Sheila!

Finn: She’s not here.

Deacon: We’re going to search everything inch of this place.

Finn: Let’s go.

Deacon: Sheila!

Finn: Sheila?

Deacon: Sheila! (Angie) tobacco companies

Bill: Listen, I am all for your newfound focus on work and family.

Liam: Yeah, you are. And it’s good for spencer’s bottom line, if nothing else.

Bill: Well, it is good for you personally as well, liam. And that’s just as important.

Liam: Yeah, but not just me. It’s good for hope, too. She’s doing the same thing in her own life.

Bill: Yeah. Interesting coincidence, isn’t it?

Liam: Yeah, interesting, maybe. Surprising, no. I mean, not if you look at the state our lives were in when our marriage ended. We’re both just spinning our wheels, right? We’re both looking for a new– a new purpose, identity.

Bill: So, do you think this, um, newfound shared perspective could mean you guys getting back together?

Liam: I don’t– we’re just not thinking about that right now.

Bill: Look, um, I– I know that you want to stop this waffling back and forth–

Liam: Yeah.

Bill: Between hope and steffy and I totally get that, but, um, given that you you seem to be sharing the same mindset with hope, don’t you think that down the road, it could mean something else?

Liam: Okay, look, listen, I– you know, at this stage in my life, I know better than to say never. But right now, right now, my priority is just being the best father I can be. That means I’m prioritizing beth and kelly.

Bill: Followed closely by spencer publications.

Liam: Look at this face. Is this not a dedicated face? I’m dedicated.

[ Bill laughs ]

Bill: You are dedicated. And I think it’s just amazing. I mean, it shows a lot of maturity and self awareness on your part.

Liam: Thanks, dad.

Bill: You clearly are following the example set by your old man.

[ Liam laughs ]

Liam: I will be serious for a moment and say that it means a lot to me that you’ve always had my back.

Bill: Yeah, well, I always will. Now, listen. You know, you can beat yourself up about this waffling thing, but it’s not how I see it. I can’t hate on you for falling in love with two incredible women. Let me remind you that they loved you right back. And for good reason.

Steffy: I don’t want to make this more than it is.

Ridge: You’re not. Look, if something seems off with finn, then…

Brooke: But he would tell you if something was wrong.

Steffy: Yeah. I don’t want to read too much into it, actually. No, we’ve been, uh, we’ve been good. We’ve been talking and sharing our feelings. It’s just last night and this morning, he seemed… quiet. Sitting on the couch, staring at– at nothing. It’s– it’s probably nothing. Like I said, it– it really is– I’m sure it’s– it’s work. What do you think?

Ridge: I’m– I’m sure that’s what it is.

Steffy: It’s just the last time I had this feeling… it had something to do with sheila.

Finn: Sheila?

Deacon: Sheila?

Finn: Smells awful in here.

Deacon: Yeah, it does. It’s like something died. Sheila!

Finn: Sheila! You heard what that guy said, the building’s been empty for a long time. No idea what’s in here.

Deacon: Sheila, it’s deacon! Where are you? Can you hear me?

Finn: Sheila! Hey, whoa, what’s that over there?

[ Mouse squeaking ]

Deacon: Place is probably crawling with rats. I hate rats. Can you hold this for me? Thank you.

[ Deacon grunts ]

Finn: Sheila! Sheila, where are you?

Bill: All right, I want you to listen to your dad. Having two families is a blessing, not something to feel guilty about. You call it waffling, but that’s not how I see it.

Liam: Yeah, but you’re a little biased.

Bill: No, what I see is a man who has never shirked his responsibilities. You’ve always stood up and been there for the people that you love. It– it wasn’t indecision, liam. You just couldn’t be everywhere you wanted to be all at once.

Liam: Ah… I really appreciate that that’s your perspective, but the fact is, it wasn’t fair to hope or steffy and I respect them too much to keep doing this, to keep… choosing between them and then changing my mind. I’ll give you this. Not a day goes by I’m not grateful for the families I’ve created with them. So, I must have done something right.

Steffy: I hate even having to say her name. I wish we could just forget about sheila.

Ridge: Wish granted. Let’s forget about her. I’ve forgotten about her. We’ve forgotten about her. It’s done.

Brooke: What about finn? Has he forgotten about her? I mean, you said he’s been quiet.

Steffy: It’s– it’s probably nothing,

Brooke: But your gut says otherwise.

Steffy: There’s no way this could be about sheila.

Ridge: No, it can’T. You know why? Because sheila is dead. She’s gone. Out of our lives forever.

[ Creaking ]

Deacon: What the hell was that? Sheila, can you hear us?

Finn: Sheila!

Deacon: Look, if this is the place, she’s been here for weeks. What kind of shape is she in?

Finn: Look, we can’t give up.

[ Deacon sighs ]

Deacon: I’m not giving up, I’m just being realistic.

Finn: Sheila! You hear us?

Deacon: Sheila! There’s a door.

[ Door lock clicking ]

[ Deacon sighs ] It’s locked. Um, would you stand over there for a second?

[ Deacon grunting ]

Finn: Whoa, you see that?

Deacon: What?

Finn: There’s something down there. Look. Give damaged hair deep repair.

Bill: I applaud your good intentions, and I support them. But liam, being mister happy single guy might be tougher than you think.

Liam: It’s not that tough. What, I don’t look happy to you? I could be happy.

Bill: No, you look great. You look great. But every time we get together, inevitably, the conversation turns to hope and steffy. I mean, you have to have noticed that, right?

Liam: Oh, uh–

Bill: And, look, I’m not hating on you. I’m not giving you a hard time.

Liam: No, no, but you’re right. You’re right, and it’s just… it’s just– it’s ’cause I want to change, right? I want to do better. I want to start treating both hope and steffy with the respect they deserve.

Bill: Well, you do that by appreciating both of them for who they are, right? I mean, you’re talking about two accomplished, intelligent, beautiful women. Great mothers.

Liam: Yeah.

Bill: And hope is just a very kind and forgiving person.

Liam: Yeah. Steffy is, too.

Bill: Yeah, she is. She is. And, well, steffy brought something different to your life.

Liam: Oh, no. Yeah, no doubt. I mean, a sense of excitement and adventure. I mean, every– every day was a new experience with steffy. I’m– listen, I’m grateful to have spent even a portion of my life with steffy. And further, I’m grateful I get to stay in her life now, just as co parents for kelly. Right? But… steffy’s totally committed to finn. And now with sheila gone, nothing’s gonna tear those two apart.

Ridge: There’s no question what happened that night. Sheila’s dead. She’s gone. And I know that still plays with your emotions a lot.

Steffy: Yeah, it’s a hard memory to shake.

Ridge: I believe that.

Steffy: I’m just glad she’s gone. God, I was so jumpy that night.

[ Gushing wind ] It was because of the storm. And then I heard a noise, and I…

[ Door creaking ] I went to check it out, and that’s when the power went out. Went to go look for some candles… and I saw the shadow. Oh, god. My heart stopped. It was her. And I told her to get out. And then she reached in her pocket, and… I thought she had a gun. I thought she was gonna shoot me again. So, I went to grab the knife. And she lunged at me, and that’s when it was over. I remember looking down and just seeing… seeing her there. And– and the blood. Realizing I… I killed her. Sheila carter was dead.

Ridge: Come here.

Steffy: Oh, god.

Finn: Sheila! Sheila!

Deacon: Hey, listen. Let’s split up. I’m gonna go that way, you go that way, all right?

Finn: Okay.

[ Heart beating ]

Sheila: I love you so much, finn.

Steffy: Sheila’s a monster.

Sheila: I love you so much, finn. I’m your first home, your first everything.

Steffy: She shot us. Sheila’s a monster, finn.

[ Heart beating faster ]

Finn: Deacon, hurry up! Get in here! Deacon!

Deacon: What do you got?

[ Deacon grunts ]

Finn: My god…

Deacon: Sheila!

Finn: Mom… mom!

[ Dramatic music ]

Deacon: Sugar and sheila are one and the same.

Finn: Yeah, I’m not following you, deacon.

Deacon: Sheila convinced sugar to have cosmetic surgery, but sheila was in cahoots with the surgeon. When he was finished with sugar–

Finn: They look alike?

Deacon: No, not alike. Identical.

Finn: So, what, this sugar woman, she’s just been rotting in prison all this time?

Deacon: Yes, yes, except, except, she was recently released. Sugar is a mirror image of sheila, but with ten toes. That’s who I saw in the crematorium. Sugar, not sheila.

Finn: And you’re really buying this?

Deacon: Yes, sheila is out there. I don’t know where she is, but you and me, we gotta go find her.

Steffy: Sure you don’t want any breakfast? Babe? Breakfast. You hungry?

Finn: Oh, um, no, I’m– I’m good. I’ll just– I’ll grab something later.

Steffy: Hey, you were like this last night. Quiet, distracted. Is it a work thing? You wanna bounce ideas off of me?

Finn: Thanks. I, um– right now, I have more questions than answers, but hopefully that’ll change soon, and when it does, you’ll be the first to know.

Steffy: I love you so much. You’re so caring and loyal to your patients, people you care about. It’s really sweet. All right, I’m gonna head to the office.

Finn: I love you too. I mean it. And I know I’ve put you through a lot recently, but never question my love and commitment for you.

Steffy: I don’T. No, we’re doing great. I know how much you love me, how you always put me and the kids first. I know that. I’ll see you tonight.

[ Finn sighs ]

[ Phone pings ]

Deacon: Today’s the day we’re gonna find you, sheila.

Carter: Wow, the contracts with the new distributors have been finalized. You had a productive trip, my friend.

Ridge: I did, and it was a fun trip, too, hanging out with douglas and thomas. Pretty good.

Carter: I’m glad to hear they’re adjusting, that they’re doing well.

Ridge: You and me both. Projections look good.

Carter: Yeah. Yeah, if everything stays on the current trajectory, yeah. Ridge, are you sure you don’t wanna think about reallocating funds to couture–

Ridge: Yeah, I’m sure everything’s good. And hope for the future’s gonna stay the same. They’ve been rattled enough.

Carter: Have you seen any designs?

Ridge: I have. Preliminaries, anyway. Hope for the future’s in really good shape. Even with thomas taking a break, I think that rj and zende, they’re a good team. And, give them enough time, they’re gonna handle anything put in front of them.

Luna: You heard?

Brooke: I did. Oh, luna. Are you okay?

Luna: You’re not upset?

Brooke: No, I am. I’m very upset. I’m upset for you and for rj and for this whole situation. I can’t believe it. Your mother and the mints? And zende? I’m shocked at zende. But really, I’m– I’m here because of you. I wanna make sure that you’re okay, and just to let you know that, woman to woman, this is a safe place.

Luna: Thank you.

Brooke: I was taken advantage of a long time ago.

Luna: That’s– that’s awful, but I wanna be clear, zende did not take advantage of me.

Brooke: Well, I don’t think that he would. But… he still… [ Scoffs ] He knew. He knew that you’re in a serious relationship with my son, and that you went to eric’s with rj. And yet, he thought that he could just sleep with you?

Ridge: Do we have any idea where brooke is?

Carter: No, I haven’t seen her yet.

Ridge: Huh. I really thought she’d be in this meeting, to just keep me from cutting the budget on hope’s line.

Carter: Maybe she didn’t wanna influence you.

Ridge: That is exactly why she would be here. Anyway, I’m not cutting the numbers. I think we’re doing great. We gotta make sure that rj and zende keep working together. It’s good for the line.

Carter: Yeah.

Ridge: Yeah? What is that?

Carter: It’s nothing.

Ridge: No, it’s something. What are you doing? I know. I get it. They’re cousins, and they’re both up-and-coming designers, but you know what? They’re gonna lock horns. That’s what artists do. It’s okay. At the end of the day, they’re gonna talk to each other, and they’re gonna compromise.

Carter: If you say so.

Ridge: If I say– yeah, you know what? Get out. Ye of little faith. Go do something.

Steffy: Oh! You just get back from your business trip and you’re already kicking people out.

Carter: Perfect timing. And for the record, he’s not kicking me out. I was gonna leave on my own.

Ridge: I am kicking you out. That’s why you’re leaving.

Carter: I was gonna leave before you kicked me out.

Ridge: Okay. See ya. Hi.

Steffy: Hi.

Ridge: How you doing?

Steffy: I’m good.

Ridge: Did you miss me?

Steffy: I’m good. Of course I missed you.

Ridge: I missed you more. You look great.

Steffy: Thank you. How was your trip? You did see douglas and thomas, right?

Ridge: I did. Douglas is great. You know, he’s just thriving. And thomas is good. What about you? Is deacon still pulling the same stuff about sheila? Is he still telling stories?

Deacon: Hollis, I’m gonna need you to hold down the fort today. I’ve got something I’ve got to take care of. It’s personal. You can do this. I trust you. All right. Bye.

[ Knocking on door ] Finn, hey. Thanks for coming. How you doing? Yeah, me too. I didn’t sleep all night. Just going over in my head about sugar and sheila and everything we learned.

Finn: Yeah, I’ve, um– I’ve thought about it too.

Deacon: Good. So, you believe me. Sheila’s alive.

Finn: I mean, as farfetched as a story as it is, and as improbable as the whole thing seems, I mean, yeah, you– um, you have me thinking.

Deacon: Well, good, ’cause I’m right. And time’s running out for sheila, and we need to find her right now.

If you’re taking

an antidepressant,

Luna: When did you find out?

Brooke: The other day. But don’t worry. Rj insisted that I don’t tell anybody. He’s very protective of you and your feelings.

Luna: God, I’ve– I’ve hurt him so much.

Brooke: I know this is a complicated situation, but he does love you very much.

Steffy: Sheila carter died that night. Her death was investigated. I was cleared. This should be the end of it.

Ridge: It is the end of it. And whatever story he’s coming up with just make him look like a complete idiot. He went to the crematorium, he saw it, and then a few seconds later, he comes up with this new story.

Steffy: Yeah, that he says he saw ten toes. It should be nine. What?

Ridge: None of this makes sense to me, but that’s deacon, right? He hasn’t played with a full deck for a long time. But this is messed up. Even for him.

Deacon: I was up all night long trying to figure out how the hell we’re gonna find sheila with what we have.

Finn: Okay, which isn’t much, by the way. Well, all we know is that sheila’s arch-nemesis, sugar, was released from prison some time ago.

Deacon: Yeah, with revenge on her mind.

Finn: Okay, but we don’t even know that for sure.

Deacon: Okay, but you’re forgetting about the text that sugar sent sheila. I mean, they were pretty damn menacing.

Finn: That’s true.

Deacon: Plus, we heard from lauren fenmore about how sugar feels about sheila.

Finn: She hated her for what she did to her face, and that she let sugar go to the mental ward for the crimes that sheila committed.

Deacon: Come on, if you were sugar and she did that to you, wouldn’t you feel the same way? You’d be looking for payback.

Finn: Okay, you really think she did something to sheila?

Deacon: All I know is when I start putting all this together, I get a chilling feeling, you know?

Finn: No, I don’t, I’M… okay, I’m trying to wrap my head around this and go there with you, but, like, even if this was true, like, how do you even expect to find sheila? She could be anywhere.

Deacon: Well, like I said, I stayed up all night and came up with an ace in the hole. Sheila’s credit card password is on her tablet. I figure we go through her spending history, we’ll find a clue that leads us to her.

Deacon: Finn, come here. Take a look at this. These are all her purchases in the days and weeks leading up to that night.

Finn: It seems like stuff you’d expect, huh?

Deacon: That’s a lot of pedicures for a lady with nine toes.

Finn: Whoa, wait, deacon, stop.

Deacon: Why?

Finn: Go back, you’re scrolling too fast. What is… what’s that charge? It’s a convenience store.

Deacon: That’s kind of a rough neighborhood.

Finn: Why would sheila go someplace like that?

Deacon: She wouldn’t, at least not voluntarily. Finn, this could be it. This could be the clue that we’re looking for. Let’s go.

Luna: I know I should’ve told rj sooner, but I swear, I wasn’t– I wasn’t trying to lie to him. I mean, keeping this secret was– was killing me. I mean, I– I just– I love him so much, and I wanted to protect his relationship with zende.

Brooke: It’s okay. You have nothing to apologize for.

Luna: Oh, we were so happy at eric’s, and there was so much love and excitement in the air, and I had– I had no idea that I had been taking my mom’s laced mints. So, um, I got tired and I left, and– and then I started getting really thirsty, and there was some water in the guest house, and I don’t know, that’s– that’s the last thing I remember. I must’ve laid down or something. It was supposed to be such a beautiful evening, and… it turned into a nightmare.

Ridge: Well, at least deacon hasn’t gotten into finn’s head with all this garbage.

Steffy: Not yet, anyway. If he keeps chipping away, it’s gonna make it harder and harder for finn to make peace with sheila’s death.

Deacon: Hey. You work here?

Finn: Okay, look, I understand this is extremely random, but we’re looking for someone.

Deacon: Look, a woman made a purchase here in your store a couple weeks ago. Bought a couple hundred bucks worth of stuff.

Michele: You two cops?

Deacon: No. No, but we think this woman could be in danger. Look, you recognize her? You seen her face before?

Michele: I can’t say I have.

Finn: Are you sure? Can you look again?

Michele: Nope. Never seen her.

[ Buzzer sounding ]

Dinn: Okay. Now what?

Deacon: I don’t know. We can’t give up.

Tom: Let me see your friend. I see everyone that comes in and out of this place. If you spit blood when you brush, And I landed this internship, and I didn’t think that my life could get any better. Right? And then, I meet rj and you and ridge and eric. I mean, the whole family, you guys have been so wonderful and welcoming towards me. And the last thing I wanna do is cause any of you pain. I mean, especially rj.

Luna: We know who you are. Sweet and kind and honest.

Luna: I, um… I love your son so much. And the way he’s changed my life and the experiences we’ve shared together, it’s just… it really breaks my heart what happened with zende.

Brooke: I think that he’s trying to be understanding.

Luna: I know. But that’s who he is. He’s just, like, this amazing guy, but I know that this is killing him.

Brooke: And I hate what’s happened to you. It’s really not fair. You know, you’re a beautiful, intelligent, positive young lady that’s brightened our son’s life. All of our lives. You know it’s not your fault, right? I just want you to know that I’m here for you. And I always will be. Always.

Ridge: So wait, every time deacon calls, finn goes over there?

Steffy: You know finn. He’S… okay, it’s hard for him to say no.

Ridge: Okay. Even if it’s not in his best interest.

Steffy: Dad, I’m not gonna let finn get caught up in deacon’s craziness. I’m not gonna let deacon resurrect sheila in finn’s mind.

Finn: You doing all right?

Tom: Been better.

Deacon:: You hang out here a lot?

Tom: Oh, sure. When I’m not vacationing in cabo or cruising the mediterranean in my yacht.

Deacon: Maybe you can help us out.

Tom: What, you want me to take a look at that picture you got there?

Deacon: Yeah.

Tom: Well, a man could use a little money.

Deacon: Yeah, sure. Here. Look, somebody very important to us has been missing for weeks, all right? They bought something in that convenience store right before they disappeared.

Tom: Well, let me see the picture. I may be down on my luck, but I never forget a face.

Deacon: You recognize her, don’t you? You’ve seen this face before.

Tom: Yeah, yeah, I recognize her. Like I said, I never forget a face, especially one as pretty as that.

Finn: Well, tell us more.

Deacon: Anything. Anything is important.

Finn: Look, this is important, all right? Possibly a matter of life or death.

Tom: Well, when I saw her, she walked into that building right over there.

Deacon: Wait a minute, she– she didn’t drive?

Tom: No.

Deacon: You’re sure?

Tom: Yeah. And that’s when the screaming started.

Finn: What– screaming?

Tom: Yeah, and it didn’t stop.

Deacon: What’d you do?

Tom: I didn’t do nothing. Listen, you learn to mind your p’s and q’s when you’re living on the street. It’s survival. It eventually stopped.

Finn: Maybe there’s something in that building that can lead us to sheila. Or is it possible that sheila’s been in that building all along?

Deacon: Let’s just hope we’re not too late.

Announcer: Here’s a look ahead.

Tom: I hear a lot of weird things around here.

[ Shouting ]

Ivy: Oh, my god, it’s so nice seeing you, liam.

Liam: It’s been too long.

Ivy: I think about you a lot.

[ Dramatic music ]

Finn: Okay, so you’re telling me that there’s someone out there that looks exactly like sheila?

Deacon: Exactly like her, but with ten toes.

Finn: Okay, deacon, come on. Man, I knew I shouldn’t have answered your text. I don’t even know why I’m entertaining this. If steffy knew I was here–

Deacon: Listen, I don’t care if steffy thinks I’m a crackpot, all right? Don’t you get it, man? Come on, this is huge. Steffy didn’t stab sheila that night. Your birth mother’s alive.

Steffy: We never have to see sheila’s face again.

Hope: And we are all relieved about that.

Steffy: Yeah. Everyone. Except deacon.

Hope: And maybe finn?

Steffy: Look, this whole saga has been really rough on finn. But he’s getting back to himself. He’s, like, becoming better. Before sheila came into his life and wreaked havoc. Like, he’s really starting to heal and let go. I’m just grateful that sheila’s no longer a threat.

[ Brooke moaning ]

Ridge: I missed you.

Brooke: Not as much as I missed you.

Ridge: Yeah?

Brooke: Mm-hmm.

Ridge: I think that’s a lie. I miss you every second of every minute of every hour of every day.

Brooke: Okay.

Ridge: I was on that plane, just thinking about what it was going to do to you when I got here.

Brooke: Hm. That’s nice.

Ridge: Mm-hmm.

Brooke: So.

Ridge: So.

Brooke: How was your trip?

Ridge: It was good. Oh, no, it was really good. Hang on. Uh, it was… it was a good trip.

Brooke: What’s this?

Ridge: I had them sign the deal for distribution.

Brooke: Congratulations. I knew you could do it. And how is thomas and douglas?

Ridge: Thomas is amazing. And douglas loves european lifestyle. Can’t blame him.

Brooke: Oh, I’m glad. I mean, we all miss him so much.

Ridge: Yeah. They send their love. What about you? What’s going on here? Did I miss anything?

Ridge: Edward, I– no, I think you’re not listening because I didn’t say I didn’t like paris. I like paris. I just prefer london. Maybe it’s the people. I don’t know. Maybe it isn’T. Look, they’re all nice. They just…

Brooke: I am heartbroken for luna. I am. And for you, honey. How could zende do this?

Rj: All I want to do is tear his head off every time I see him now. I’m not saying that he took advantage of luna. He didn’T. I believed him when he told me that he didn’t know she was on anything. Zende would never do anything against her consent.

Brooke: I don’t think that he would. But still, think about it. Luna went to eric’s party with you. As your girlfriend. On your arm. You two have been together for months. Everybody knew that. Zende knew it. So for him to do this is– is a terrible betrayal. It is. It’s unforgivable. When your father finds out about this–

Rj: No. You cannot tell dad.

Brooke: Rj, he needs to know.

Rj: Mom, please. I want to protect luna because this isn’t her fault. I don’t want this getting around and people misunderstanding and it hurting her reputation. Please, mom. Do not say anything. It would devastate luna if this got out.

Ridge: It’s two acts. The second act could have been an hour and a half shorter. But I’ll get you tickets. Okay. I got– I really gotta go. All right. Me too. Bye. Oh, my goodness. Where were we?

Brooke: Uh, you were talking about missing me.

Ridge: Yes, because I did miss you so much. It was a nice trip and it was good to see thomas. Great to see douglas. But yeah, I missed all of this. I missed being here. I missed seeing rj. He’s home. I love that. And he’s good, right? Is he– is he okay?

Steffy: I love finn. And I’m always gonna try to support him, but–

Hope: But the whole sheila situation.

Steffy: Yeah, this has been extremely difficult. You know, I’m trying to understand his connection to her. Like, how could you? She’s a vile human being. But thankfully, it’s no longer an issue. Because sheila’s no longer an issue.

Deacon: Okay, this isn’t the end of sheila.

Finn: Deacon, you have been talking a lot of crazy stuff lately.

Deacon: Listen, I know this sounds nuts, all right? It’s not all in my head. Lauren fenmore told me, this– this sugar woman, right? Her face was changed to look exactly like sheila’S. The spitting image. I know, it sounds far-fetched.

Finn: No, deacon. It sounds impossible.

Deacon: I get it, man. I didn’t believe it when I first heard it either. But I’m telling you, it’s the truth. I swear to you, it’s the truth. Type 2 diabetes?

Ridge: No, I don’t want to go to the club. It’s numb. Yeah, you can come to the house. Sure. Um, can you– I’m sorry. No, she’ll make something. She loves cooking for you guys. Yes. No, I’m excited too. I can’t wait. Okay. I– I will. I’m sorry. Again.

Brooke: It’s okay. Word travels fast. Everybody wants a piece of you now that you’re back.

Ridge: I want a piece of you now that I’m back doing– um, hey, hi. What were we talking about before ted called? What did–

Brooke: Uh, the kids and your trip. But why don’t we talk more about douglas and thomas.

Ridge: Douglas and thomas. Favorite part of the trip.

Brooke: I’ll bet.

Ridge: It really was because the two of them, they’re– they’re bonding. They– it’s nice to see. It really is.

Brooke: That’s wonderful.

Ridge: But douglas, he brought up a couple of times how much she misses hope. And I’m sure she misses him too.

Brooke: Yes. She is really struggling with that. As well as having a father who refuses to believe that sheila carter is dead.

Steffy: Deacon needs to accept the truth. Sheila’s life ended. It happened right here. I mean, I– I still have visions of her coming at me. Must have been terrifying.

Steffy: Yeah, it was awful. And then finn shows up and he sees his biological mother’s blood on the ground. I mean… the point being is that sheila’s dead. Somebody needs to give your father the message.

Hope: I do think that deep down, he realizes that.

Steffy: Yeah, but the way he’s been talking–

Hope: I know. I know, steffy. But at the same time, he is still my dad. And I feel bad for him. I– I mean, I am allowed to worry about him.

Steffy: It’s just so weird to me. How could you love somebody like that?

Hope: I– believe me, it was weird for me too. But now that sheila is no longer part of the picture, I’m hoping we can all just move on.

Steffy: But how can we move on when deacon is saying that sheila is alive? Like, that is so irresponsible. Especially after all the things she has done to us.

Hope: No, and I agree. I just think my dad is… he’s processing it in his own way. And he is going to have to accept reality eventually.

Steffy: Well, until your dad is ready to face the facts, he needs to stay out of my husband’s head.

Finn: You need to snap out of it.

Deacon: Don’t put me in a straitjacket yet, doc. Look, I’m not insane. Just hear me out. Lauren said that she and sheila went way back, right? I mean, there was stuff that I hadn’t heard about.

Finn: What, like this sugar person?

Deacon: Yes, exactly. Okay, sugar went to go see the plastic surgeon, but sheila paid the surgeon to make sugar look like her.

Finn: What, so she’s basically had herself cloned?

Deacon: No, no, only her face. But that was enough to put sugar away to pay for sheila’s crimes.

Finn: And you’re buying this story?

Deacon: This is the only explanation.

Finn: Okay, deacon, you may be gullible–

Deacon: Okay, wait a minute. Steffy saw what she thought was sheila’s face when she stabbed her that night. I saw the same face at the morgue, and then again, right before the body went into the cremation chamber. But she had ten toes.

Finn: This is the most ridiculous story I’ve ever heard.

Deacon: I get it, I get it! But that’s what happened. Sheila’s more of a genius than we ever thought. If advanced lung cancer

[ Brooke sighs ]

Brooke: I’m worried about hope.

Ridge: Well, with deacon, as her father, how can you not be?

Brooke: He’s been acting very strangely lately.

Ridge: He always acts strange, that’s what he does. And he was never there for her, ever.

Brooke: Thankfully, you were. I never could have asked for a better father figure than you for my daughter.

Ridge: Well, thank you. I hope she sees it that way.

Brooke: I’m sure she does. Although I know she would have liked to have her father around more.

Ridge: I’m sure she would have liked that. Maybe this is a blessing. I mean, look at him. He’s– he’s a strange boy. He’s a convicted felon. And he tries to hang out with psychopaths.

Brooke: Nobody condones that, especially my daughter.

Ridge: I wouldn’t say anybody condones it, but look what he’s doing. He’s hanging out with sheila, and after everything that she’s done to you, to me, steffy, finn.

Brooke: My daughter wants a relationship with him. And they were getting close, until he hooked up with her. I mean, now that sheila is gone, maybe they’ll be able to build their bond again. That is if deacon can move on and forget about sheila.

Steffy: Finn thinks your dad is just conjuring up some fantasy.

Hope: Well, my dad is convinced that he saw ten toes.

Steffy: Okay, that didn’t happen. Deacon is delusional. He’s, like, painting some picture where sheila could just come back to life. And that’s just not happening.

Hope: But, obviously, my dad is struggling. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even be entertaining these theories.

Steffy: Because as soon as he digests the truth, then it becomes real. So, he’d rather live in denial. I mean, this whole thing is just a waste of time. Was he really that in love with her?

Hope: Evidently.

Steffy: Deacon needs to wake up. He needs to deal with his problems. Stop dragging finn into this spiral. Asking to see him? That is so disrespectful. I mean, finn is still trying to work through everything. Everything with sheila, that happened right here, at my hand. Look, deacon is making it extremely difficult for finn to just let it go. He’s constantly reminding him, bringing it up and I just want to be able to live in peace again. Deacon needs to stop talking about all this nonsense that sheila is alive.

[ Steffy grunts ]

Deacon: Lauren said sheila bragged years ago about what she’d done to sugar.

Finn: How do you know lauren’s not messing with you?

Deacon: Why would she lie? This is bonkers. Come on, man, you couldn’t write this stuff if you tried.

Finn: No, the whole scenario.

Deacon: There’s more, okay? So sugar finally gets put away for sheila’s crimes, right? And then lauren goes to visit sheila, or the person she thought was sheila, in the mental ward. Ultimately, sugar escapes, goes after lauren’s son, posing as sheila. But then lauren, she realizes that sheila would never go after her son. And when the police caught who they thought was sheila, it was lauren who put it all together. The authorities, they confirmed it with the fingerprints. Sugar confessed to everything. She sang like a canary.

Finn: So what, this sugar woman, she’s just been rotting in prison all this time?

Deacon: Yes, yes, except, except, she was recently released. And somehow, wound up at your place, inside your house, where she got stabbed by steffy. And before that happened, I think she did something to sheila.

Finn: Like what?

Deacon: I– I don’t know, something bad. I think your mother’s in real trouble. At bombas, we’re obsessed with socks.

Ridge: I planned a nice little evening for us.

Brooke: Oh?

Ridge: Couple’s massage. Mm-hmm. Gourmet dinner, and then, lucky you, you can have me all to yourself.

Brooke: Sign me up for all of the above. It’s been no fun sleeping without you.

Ridge: It’s gonna be nice to reconnect.

Brooke: Yes. We can put everything else behind us.

Ridge: Okay. So, what is deacon saying about sheila? He doesn’t believe she’s gone?

[ Brooke sighs ]

Brooke: He’s making some ridiculous claims.

Ridge: Like what? What is he saying?

Brooke: He’s refusing to believe that sheila passed away.

Ridge: She passed away. She’s gone. It’s done. The witch is dead. The coroner said she was gone, right? So– he saw her go up in smoke.

Brooke: I don’t know what deacon’s thinking.

Ridge: No one knows what he’s thinking. You know what, he just, he can’t live in a world that– that– that makes sense to anybody else. Sheila is gone. Out of our lives. He’s gotta deal with that.

Brooke: Yeah. I just wish he would stop fighting it. For all of our sakes. Especially hope’S. It’s beginning to take a toll.

Ridge: That’s not fair. It’s not fair to hope. It’s not fair to steffy. They shouldn’t have to think about sheila carter ever again.

Steffy: Deacon needs to get a grip.

Hope: Uh, he is heading down a bit of a dark path, but I’ve tried warning him.

Steffy: He’s already there. He’s in full-on crazy town. Like, is this really how he wants to live his life? Who he wants to be? He’s like living in a different reality.

Hope: I’m just hoping that he needs to get it out of his system, and once he realizes that he was imagining things, that sheila is not returning, he will get back to his old self.

Steffy: Yeah, well, hopefully that can happen today.

Hope: Tell me about it.

Steffy: Has finn said anything to you? Well, I know you two have spent some time together.

Hope: Uh, yeah, finn’s mentioned sheila. There’s feelings for her, but intricate and nuanced.

Steffy: I wish it was more cut and dry, that finn saw sheila for the monster that she was, but I guess his– his heart is just way too big. I just don’t want finn buying into deacon’s twisted fairy tale.

Finn: It’s too implausible.

Deacon: I think so too. If I couldn’t show you something to prove that it’s the truth. She’s a dead ringer for your mom. No pun intended.

Finn: Have you ever heard of photo editing?

Deacon: Come on, man, you’ve got to stop doubting me. What I’m telling you is legit. Look, I get this sounds nuts, maybe the most ludicrous story you’ve ever heard, but I’m not lying to you, and lauren fenmore wasn’t lying either. Why would she? She’s got nothing to gain from it. She hates your mother. Look, finn, the simple fact is this. Sugar is a mirror image of sheila, but with ten toes. That’s who I saw in the crematorium. Sugar, not sheila.

Finn: You’re really buying all of this?

Deacon: I’ve never been more certain of anything in my life.

Finn: Deacon, this is beyond the realm of reason or anything that I have ever even heard of as a doctor. And look, I have come to peace with sheila. I’ve accepted that she’s gone and we’re never going to see her again. And even then, after everything that she has done to me, it was hard letting go of her. All right? That connection that I’ve never been fully able to understand or articulate was destroyed. It ceased to exist. And so what? Now you’re telling me now that that’s not the case? That I might have a second chance with the woman that brought me into this world?

Deacon: Yes, yes, sheila is out there. I don’t know where she is, but you and me, we got to go find her. We got to find sheila right now.

Deacon: Prisoner janet webber, former warden, released from prison a couple months ago. My god. She– she was alive. She was free. That could have been her that I saw in the slab at the crematorium. Because it sure as hell wasn’t sheila.

Steffy: Where’s your scrub, dr. Finnegan?

Finn: In the bag. Is this for me?

Steffy: Oh, I thought you’d be working from home today.

Finn: I won’t be at the hospital long.

Steffy: Okay, good. I’ll make sure I’m ready for you when you come home.

Finn: That sounds nice.

[ Knocking on door ]

Steffy: It’s open.

Hope: It’s open? Well, that’s a nice surprise.

[ Steffy chuckles ]

Steffy: Yeah, no guards.

Hope: Well, it must be quite a relief.

Finn: Yeah.

Steffy: Now that sheila’s gone, we can finally breathe again.

Hope: Uh, about that, before we get to work, I just wanted to take the opportunity to apologize on behalf of my dad for the crazy things he’s been saying about sheila.

Luna: I thought that I was with rj, zende. I saw his face. How could I make that up? What have I done? How could I do this to him?

[ Carter clearing his throat ]

Zende: Hey, carter.

Carter: How’s it going?

Zende: I have been better.

Carter: Yeah, I see that. It’s hard to work when you can’t stop thinking about luna.

[ Door slamming ]

Luna: Oh, ridge, I brought– rj.

Zende: Hope’s counting on me. I want to give her my best designs.

Carter: Well, judging by your face, if it’s too much here, you can work at home, zende.

Zende: Yeah, where luna and I spent the night? Now, that’ll really help me focus.

Carter: You want to talk about it? You’re a good guy, zende. What happened with luna was messed up.

Zende: It was a bad misunderstanding. Luna thought she was with rj, not with me.

Carter: Yeah, that might be true. But you knew you were in bed with your cousin’s girlfriend, right?

Zende: You haven’t talked to anyone about this, have you? I mean, especially your best friend, my uncle ridge.

Carter: It’s not my place to say anything.

Zende: Thank you. Please, please keep it that way. I can’t even imagine how ridge would react being rj’s dad. He would never understand.

Carter: Understand, zende? Do you fully understand? You slept with your cousin’s girlfriend. That’s your cousin. That’s your family. And you’re worried about ridge? You can’t stop thinking about her. He is the least of your concerns. You betrayed your family, man. And despite all that, you’re crazy about her. It’s written all over your face.

Luna: Hope is, uh, really excited about the new fabric samples and she wanted your dad to see them, so. Uh, I’ll– I’ll go.

Rj: Wait, luna, don’t go. I miss you.

Hope: I really have no idea what my dad is doing. Going around town saying that sheila is alive.

Steffy: Well, she’s not.

Hope: Well, of course not. And we have no reason to believe that.

Finn: Deacon does.

Hope: Well, he’s wrong. And I understand that my dad is hurting, but it is not fair. I mean, we’ve already suffered enough because of sheila. Especially you, steffy.

Finn: I agree. And I don’t think that’s deacon’s intention. He’s in denial. It’s part of the process. He’s convinced himself he saw ten toes on sheila to give himself some hope that she’s still alive. It’s the only explanation.

Deacon: You can’t make this stuff up. This is unbelievable. I’m not losing it. This explains it. It– it wasn’t sheila that got cremated. It was sugar. It was sugar. Then where the hell are you, sheila? Damn it, where are you? My celebrity colorist?

Zende: You’re right. I am crazy about luna. The way I acted when she showed up at my place, I, um, I kicked myself, but that night, I thought that she really wanted to be with me. She said she was waiting for me. I thought she wanted me as much as I wanted her.

Carter: And it didn’t matter she’s with your cousin?

Zende: Rj didn’t even cross my mind. Is that wrong? Totally. But in the moment, all I could think about was luna. If I could take it all back, I would do things differently. But I can’T. Carter, I can’t work. I can’t focus. All I can think about is that night. It never should have happened. But I can’t stop thinking about it, either. Because… for me, it was real.

Luna: You know, you don’t have to say that if you don’t mean it.

Rj: I do.

Luna: You– you miss me?

Rj: Of course, I do. I hate being apart. I want to call you, wondering how you are. I keep wanting to talk to someone about all this. The only person I want to talk to is you. It’s just everything. It’s so awkward now. I don’t know what to say to you. I don’t know how to act when we’re around each other. I mean, this isn’t us. This isn’t us. This isn’t– this isn’t who we are. It’s just– it’s just so weird.

Luna: Yeah, uh, I feel the same way, but I don’t know what to do about it.

Rj: Neither do I.

Luna: So what are you saying, rj? You know, you can tell me. I need to know where things stand between us.

Steffy: Deacon can believe whatever he wants. Just don’t bring our family into it.

Finn: Nobody’s buying his theories.

Steffy: Because it’s ludicrous. Like, I don’t care what deacon thinks. I know what happened. What sheila forced me to do.

Hope: Look, no one wants you to relive that, steffy, but at the same time, my dad is struggling. And like finn said, he clearly just can’t accept the fact that sheila’s gone.

Steffy: Well, he needs to accept it. Because sheila is gone. And thank god she is. Sheila’s no longer a threat to us. I’m fine, finn. I’m fine.

Finn: I gotta get going to work. Are you going to be okay?

Steffy: Yeah, babe, I am. I am.

Finn: I’ll be home soon, okay?

Steffy: I love you. Yeah, it’s fine.

Finn: I love you too. See you soon.

Hope: So, dining room table?

Steffy: Yeah, let’s do it.

[ Phone pings ]

Hope: I wanted to talk to you about the projections for hope for the future.

Steffy: [Indistinct]

Hope: Steady. Uh, I also wanted to show you a little bit of what zende and rj have been up to.

Steffy: Their designs have been incredible.

Deacon: Your mother may still be alive, finn. Ugh, when is my allergy spray going to kick in?

Carter: So, luna, she really thought you were rj.

Zende: Yeah. I didn’t know until the next morning. When I think about that night, part of me remembers feeling so close and connected to her. And then I think about the next morning, seeing her so upset, realizing what a mistake it was.

Carter: How’s luna doing with it?

Zende: She feels beyond guilty.

Carter: That’s not right. It’s not her fault.

Zende: No. She realizes it was because she was drugged by her mom’s mints. But she feels guilty for lying to rj. For keeping it a secret as long as she did.

Carter: She told him?

Zende: Yeah.

Carter: What’d he say? Did he understand?

Zende: Would you? Who knows what rj’s gonna do now.

Rj: And you wanna know where we stand, and you deserve an answer.

Luna: Yeah, but, like, if you’re still trying to figure it out, I can–

Rj: I’m gonna be honest with you. I’m hurt. And I’m more confused now than when you first told me. Because every time I think about it, I see you in zende’s bed, in his arms. It’s not your fault. You thought it was me. And I– I– I believe you. I mean, what happened that night was terrible, but nobody can blame you for it. No one. And don’t you dare do it either.

Luna: But, what if you can’t get past it?

Rj: I want to. I want our life back.

Hope: I’m confident that hope for the future can meet these targets.

Steffy: It’s pretty ambitious.

Hope: I have an ambitious team.

Steffy: Well, if you do need more time, we can talk to katie and just tweak the schedule.

Hope: Oh, zende and rj are pretty revved up about it, and I trust them to follow through.

Steffy: Sounds like you’re managing the transition.

Hope: Since thomas left?

Steffy: He and douglas are enjoying their time overseas.

Hope: I heard.

Steffy: It’s good for them.

Hope: It’s been challenging for me. I miss them.

Steffy: So do I.

Hope: Well, I don’t think you have to worry about hope for the future. I am determined to make our next collection a success.

Steffy: I’m sure it will be.

Hope: Steffy, you wanted me away from your brother, so you don’t have to act sympathetic, really. Just be grateful for what’s going right in your life. Sheila’s gone, and you are married to an amazing husband and father.

Deacon: Finn.

Finn: Look, I’m on my way to the hospital. What’s going on?

Deacon: Okay, listen. You’re gonna want to sit down for this.

Finn: Sit down? I’m pretty sure I won’t, because I assume this has to do with sheila.

Deacon: I would not have texted if it wasn’t important.

Finn: Look, and I told you last time, I am done talking about sheila and this crazy idea that she isn’t dead.

Deacon: Look, I know. I thought I was crazy too, okay? But I think I figured it out, okay? And it makes perfect sense. Now more than ever, I’m convinced that sheila’s alive.

Carter: So, you don’t know if rj can get past this?

Zende: Luna is hoping he can.

Carter: What about you?

Zende: I think rj would be a fool not to forgive luna.

Luna: I miss you too. So much. I miss seeing you here. I miss talking to you about my day. Joking together about anything. And I miss– and I miss being with you at the beach. You know, just us. Feeling you close. I’m so sorry for hurting you, rj. Really, I am. And I– I hate this distance between us. I mean, what can we do? What can we do to fix this? I– I need to fix it, please.Ever you’re thinking, I just… I just– I don’t want you to forget how much I love you.

Rj: I’m never gonna forget. I love you too, luna. I’m never gonna stop loving you.

Steffy: I know how blessed I am to have finn in my life.

Hope: You’ve been through a lot together.

Steffy: Yeah. And that made us closer. Having sheila as his birth mother, it was– it was a challenge.

Hope: Yeah, but finn’s always been loyal to you, though.

Steffy: Yeah, but he’s always kind of had this connection to sheila. But it’s broken now.

Hope: All right, look, the important thing is you don’t have to worry about her anymore, and she’s never going to be a part of your life ever again.

Steffy: I’m really grateful for that. I just don’t know how much more of sheila my marriage could take.

Finn: Sheila is dead. And I realize that you don’t want to accept that, or you can’t, but it’s the cold, hard fact.

Deacon: No, it’s not. There’s more to it, more you don’t know.

Finn: Steffy stabbed sheila. She saw her face. You saw her face. It is not healthy to be clinging to this idea that sheila might still be out there.

Deacon: She is out there. I don’t know where, but that’s why I called you. We have to go find her.

Finn: Look, you’re wasting your time, and you’re wasting mine.

Deacon: Listen to me, please.

Finn: No, you need to let this go, okay? I’ve heard enough. You need help, deacon.

Deacon: I need your help. Your mother needs your help.

Finn: My birth mother is gone. She’s not coming back. And I don’t care about ten toes. I don’t want to hear another word about it. I don’t care what you think you saw at the crematorium. I am done.

Deacon: Listen– listen to me, please. It’s not about that, okay? Listen, I found out something, all right? Your mother, she had a friend, an accomplice, sugar.

Finn: You told me about her. I don’t know who this is.

Deacon: I know, I know. I didn’t either, okay? But somebody from your mother’s past, from genoa city, came to visit me and I asked her about it.

Finn: Asked who about it?

Deacon: Lauren fenmore. It doesn’t matter. If anybody knows about your mother’s past, it’s lauren. And yeah, she thought I was nuts too, okay? Until I mentioned sugar. Brace yourself, pal, because this is legit. I don’t, I just, I couldn’t figure out, how could I have seen sheila’s face and seen ten toes?

Finn: Because you didn’T.

Deacon: You’re right. I didn’t because it wasn’t sheila’s face. Lauren put it together for me. Sugar and sheila were one and the same.

Finn: Yeah, I’m not following you, deacon.

Deacon: Plastic surgery. Sugar thought sheila was her friend. Sheila convinced sugar to have cosmetic surgery, but sheila was in cahoots with the surgeon. When he was finished with sugar, she had sheila’s face.

Finn: She had sheila’s face?

Deacon: Yeah.

Finn: So, would they look alike?

Deacon: No, not alike. Identical.

Finn: Deacon, this is insane.

Deacon: This is the wackiest story I’ve ever heard, but it makes perfect sense. Don’t you get it, man? There is somebody out there that looks exactly like sheila with ten toes.

Finn: So, you actually–

Deacon: Yes, yes, I think it was sugar that was in the crematorium. Not sheila. Don’t you get what this means, man? Your mom is still alive. Sheila is out there, and she is still alive.

Deacon: Thanks.

[ Indistinct chatter ] She actually got cosmetic surgery to look like sheila.

Steffy: Oh, my gosh, that water was amazing.

[ Steffy laughs ]

Finn: Yeah. I was just… getting to be alone out there with you.

Steffy: Yeah.

[ Finn laughs ] Li’s such a saint, letting us have the morning.

Finn: Yeah. I mean, I could stay in the ocean all day with you, but, um, I mean, do you have any other ideas on how we could, uh, spend the rest of our morning?

Steffy: I think I have some ideas.

Finn: Yeah?

Rj: So this is what you’re telling me, you accidentally took your mother’s drugs and then you stumbled into one of the guest houses on my granddad’s property?

Luna: Yeah.

Rj: I– I wasn’t there, but someone was, right? Who was it?

Luna: I spent the night with zende.

Brooke: Good morning, sweetheart.

Rj: Hi, mom.

Brooke: Honey?

Rj: Hmm?

Brooke: You seem… what’s wrong?

Luna: I should have come to you right away that next morning. I should have told you exactly what happened.

Rj: You didn’T. You’ve been hiding it from me this whole time. I’m– I’m– I’m still trying to make sense of all this. It’s just every time I look at you, I see you in zende’s bed. In his arms. I just– I need time.

[ Knocking on door ]

Poppy: Oh, sweetheart. I’m so sorry.

Poppy: Luna, I am so sorry. My mints.

Luna: I don’t want to talk about it, okay? I know that you gave them up and you feel horrible.

Poppy: I do. More than you’ll ever know. Where do things stand with you and rj?

Brooke: Rj, you’re starting to worry me. What is it?

Rj: I’d rather not talk about it, okay?

Brooke: Okay, I respect that, but I can see that you’re upset. So, is it work? Is it your friends? It’s not your grandfather, is it?

Rj: No.

Brooke: Okay, well, that’s good. Is it something to do with luna? You two have a disagreement? That’s okay, you know, because sometimes in a relationship, there are rocky times.

Rj: This is more than a disagreement or a rocky time, though.

Brooke: What happened? You know you can talk to me about anything. So what is it? Maybe I can help.

Rj: I don’t think you can. I can’t believe I’m saying this. Luna was with another guy.

[ Phone chimes ]

Finn: Mm. No. I better get it. Ah. Hmm. Oh, look at this.

Steffy: Oh, my gosh! Look at kelly and hayes. Oh, my god, they’re so cute. Look at them with li. I’m so glad beth was up for a play date.

Finn: Mm, believe me, she’s having as much fun as they are.

Steffy: Yeah, you’re right. It’s so nice. Just this beautiful blended family. I love it.

Finn: So do I. Speaking of blended families, hope stopped by yesterday and dropped off kelly’s goggles.

Steffy: Well, that was nice of her.

Finn: Yeah, it was. Also, gave me a chance to tell her that her dad still thinks sheila’s alive.

Deacon: Who the hell are you? Here we go. Okay. Janet webber, warden in hemet, california prison. This is crazy. Okay, so sheila tricks sugar into getting cosmetic surgery to look like her. And then sugar takes the fall for sheila’s crimes. Sheila wasn’t the one who was getting cremated. I’m not losing my mind here. Are you still alive? Shake up your shower

Poppy: Rj realizes that none of this was your fault, right?

Luna: It doesn’t matter. I broke his heart.

Poppy: What did he say?

Luna: He wishes that I let him know sooner. And as much as he still cares about me, he can’t stop picturing me in zende’s bed. He needs time.

Poppy: You are innocent in all of this. Doesn’t rj understand that? Can’t he forgive you?

Brooke: What are you saying, rj? Who was luna with?

Rj: Zende.

Brooke: Zende? Oh, my god, luna slept with zende?

Rj: Well, she thought it was me. She was– she was drugged by her own mother. She– poppy’s mints turned out to be more than just mints, mom.

Brooke: How can poppy be so negligent?

Rj: Luna had no idea.

Brooke: Are you sure about all of this? It’s really hard to believe.

Rj: I– I know, but it’s true. I believe luna.

Steffy: You told hope her dad thinks sheila’s alive?

Finn: Yeah, and, uh, she was pretty upset when she heard the things deacon was saying.

Steffy: Well, she should be. She should be extremely concerned. I mean, he is way off-base. He’s seeing things that aren’t even there.

Finn: I don’t know, it has to be the grief, but deacon’s really struggling. But I don’t know, i saw things too at one point.

Steffy: Finn, do not compare yourself to deacon. I mean, you had no choice having this connection to sheila. But deacon, he’s just, like, willingly diving into the drama, so of course he’s going to see things.

Finn: Well, grief has its way of playing tricks on your mind. And that’s the only explanation for why he thinks he saw sheila with 10 toes.

Deacon: Oh. Come on, there’s got to be more out here on you.

[ Laptop chimes ] No, I don’t want a free sample of ethically sourced coconut sugar. All right, there’s a person out there that looks exactly like sheila, but has 10 toes. Is that person you, sugar? That’s the question. My celebrity colorist?

Poppy: Rj knows that you never would have betrayed him if you were in your right mind, right? Can’t he forgive you?

Luna: I hope so. I mean, I– I can tell how much he still loves me.

Poppy: Of course he does. And that is all that matters.

Luna: Does it, mom? Is that really all that matters? I mean, will it ever be that simple for rj again?

Brooke: I am heartbroken for luna. I am. And for you, honey. But how could zende do this?

Rj: All I want to do is tear his head off every time I see him now. But I’m not saying that he took advantage of luna. He didn’T. I believed him when he told me that he didn’t know she was on anything. Zende would never do anything against her consent.

Brooke: I don’t think that he would, but still. Think about it. Luna went to eric’s party with you, as your girlfriend, on your arm. You two have been together for months. Everybody knew that. Zende knew it. So for him to do this is– is a terrible betrayal. It is. It’s unforgivable. When your father finds out about this–

Rj: No! You cannot tell dad.

Brooke: Rj, he needs to know.

Rj: Mom, please. I want to protect luna because this isn’t her fault. I don’t want this getting around and people misunderstanding and hurting her reputation. Despite everything, she means too much to me. I’ll take care of zende. Please, mom. Do not say anything. It would devastate luna if this got out.

Brooke: O– okay. I won’t tell your father. I– I just can’t believe this. I– I– I can’t believe the drugs. Your cousin. I– I know you’re dealing with a lot. And I know you’re shocked. But what about luna? I think about what she went through. How is she? Is she all right?

Deacon: There has got to be more of this janet webber, aka sugar. Damn it, sheila, where the hell are you? Okay, okay, go– go over the– go over the text chain. “How did you get this number? It doesn’t matter. I got nothing else to say to you. I’m going to find you. Leave me alone, sugar. Leave me alone, sugar.” You sounded scared. Scaring you was no small feat. So she’d just leave town without telling me? Are you still out there, sheila? Are you in danger?

(“Holiday road”)

Luna: I broke rj’s trust. I mean, I slept with his cousin. Mom, if you could only see how– how devastated he was. I can’t blame him if he– if he never gets past what I did.

Poppy: What you did? Luna, you’re talking like you went after zende. That you intentionally and willingly spent the night with him. It was an accident.

Luna: I betrayed him.

Poppy: No, you didn’T. You would never do that to him on purpose.

Luna: No, of course not. I love him.

Poppy: And he loves you.

Luna: Yeah, but I– I should have never kept this from him. You were trying to protect his relationship with his cousin. That’s noble. You wound up telling him anyway. You could have kept this all to yourself. That is not who you are. You’re kind, honest, loving. Of course rj’s hurting right now. But he knows who you are. He knows what you stand for. Please, sweetheart. Please don’t lose faith in rj and his love for you.

Brooke: How is luna handling all of this?

Rj: She’s still so torn up. She’s blaming herself. Wondering how this could have happened. She thinks she betrayed me and our family.

[ Brooke gasps ]

Brooke: Are you kidding me? She is not to blame. She’s not. It was her mother’s drugs. She didn’t know. I believe it. And as a woman, I can only imagine what she felt. Waking up thinking that she was with you, her boyfriend. When really… I feel a sense of responsibility for her. She works at forrester creations. And this happened at the forrester estate. And she is a sweet, young, beautiful woman who went through a traumatic experience. I mean, this is terrible. What happened to her was– it’s horrifying, honestly. Can you imagine realizing that you think you’re with your boyfriend, but you wake up with somebody else, like, zende. Oh my god, zende! What was he doing? What was he thinking? How could he do this to you, honestly? He’s your cousin. And he knows how much you love luna. This, honestly, is a horrible betrayal. I’m sorry, honey. I am. I’m so sorry. I can see that you still love luna.

Rj: Of course I do. None of this was her fault. I–

Brooke: No. No, it wasn’T. And I will not tell your father, I promise. I just want you to know that I’m here for you. For you and luna. Whatever you need. Okay?

Rj: Okay.

Brooke: I just hope that you and luna can get back to where you were before this terrible night.

Brooke: Okay?

Rj: Okay.

Finn: Deacon’s inability to let sheila go concerns hope.

Steffy: Well– well why does it have to be a problem for us? I mean, deacon chose to love that monster. Sorry.

Finn: No, no. I’m sorry. Talking about sheila is getting me all worked up, and I don’t want to upset you.

Steffy: No, but I don’t want you to feel like you can’t talk to me.

Finny: I can talk to you. I know you can talk to you. I– you have been my rock through all of this. I couldn’t get through this without you. I’m the luckiest man in the world to have a woman like you. Married to you.

Steffy: And don’t you forget it.

Finn: And look, I know I have this very illogical connection to sheila, but it doesn’t and it will never compare to the connection that I have with you and the kids. You’re my light. Right through all this. But guess what? We’re free. Steff, we never have to worry about sheila again.

Deacon: What the hell happened? All right, come on, man, focus. Finally! How– how the hell did I miss this? Okay, prison warden janet webber was serving a prison sentence. Oh, my god. She was released a couple months ago. That could have been her that I saw at the crematorium. 10 toes and all. And if that was sugar, and if she had it out for sheila, and now sugar’s dead, then where the hell is sheila?

[ Mellow music ]

Deacon: Right, so you’re– you’re telling me that this sugar woman had cosmetic surgery and looks just like sheila?

Lauren: Not looks like. She’s sheila’s identical twin. Look, deacon, I realize how farfetched this all sounds.

Deacon: Farfetched? This sounds insane.

Lauren: But still, it’s true. And that means…

Deacon: What it means is that I’m not crazy after all. That I did see sheila’s face and ten toes.

Steffy: Deacon’s delusional. I told him that the other day.

Liam: You two got into it?

Steffy: Sheila’s dead. I was there. I’m the one who killed her.

Liam: Yeah, I know. In self-defense.

Steffy: Yes! There’s no way she’s still alive. Like I said, the guy’s delusional.

Hope: Well, clearly my father must be in a considerable amount of pain if he’s saying things like this.

Finn: Look, grief can do strange things to a person.

Hope: This is beyond bizarre, what my dad is claiming. I mean, obviously he’s mistaken, but…

Finn: I’m sure he’ll realize eventually.

Hope: Well, what about you? How are you feeling? My dad asked you if a part of you still wishes your birth mother could be here. And you said it didn’t matter because she’s gone. But how would you feel if, against all odds, my father was right about sheila?

Hope: I– I’m not trying to put you on the spot.

Finn: No, I know, and I appreciate that.

Hope: Hm. I mean, your feelings are your feelings. I just– I don’t know, I can’t help but wonder. I mean, does some part of you wish that sheila were still alive?

Liam: It’s has gotta be getting to you, right? Wearing you down?

Steffy: I’m fine.

Liam: Yeah, okay, but– but you would say that even if you weren’T.

Steffy: If deacon would move on, we could all get on with our lives. Instead, he’s concocting these absurd stories. I just want to be done with sheila once and for all.

Deacon: You saw this woman, sugar’s face, with your own two eyes?

Lauren: Yes.

Deacon: She’s the spitting image of sheila?

Lauren: Sheila’s mother wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.

Deacon: But how is this even possible? I mean, to– to transform one person into another, to give them the same face? I mean, look, I don’t care how talented a plastic surgeon is, to pull something like that off, it’s– it’s–

Lauren: It’s mind-blowing.

Deacon: It’s preposterous. This is the craziest story I’ve ever heard. Sheila really did a number on you, didn’t she?

Lauren: For years. Decades. The nightmare that was sheila carter began with me, and I was so happy that it ended with steffy.

Deacon: And now, like me, you’re wondering if maybe it didn’T. Lauren, this is why you have to tell me everything that you know about sheila and sugar.

[Alarm bell]

Hope: Yeah, but feelings are already complicated enough as is. And then, to have people that have had a big impact on our lives, good or bad, that just–

Finn: Like– like sheila.

Hope: Yeah. I mean, finn, you didn’t know who your birth mother was for the majority of your life. All those years of wondering, and then to finally find out, and it’S… her?

Finn: Yeah, and unfortunately, sheila came with a lot of baggage. She’s done terrible things to my wife and her family. And after all of that, I shouldn’t have any feelings at all for sheila. But I have felt a connection to her. One that I have never fully understood. And I don’t know if it’s biological or what it is, but to answer your question, do I want sheila dead? Stabbed to death by my wife? No.

Steffy: It’s like sheila is still pulling the strings, beyond the grave, and deacon is helping.

Liam: I– I know it feels that way, but sooner or later, deacon is gonna realize that this crazy woman he was integrating into his life is actually gone. It’s just– in the meantime…

Steffy: In the meantime, we can’t get back to normal. Something I want so badly.

Liam: I know, I know, I want that for you too. God knows you’ve been through enough because of sheila, and it just needs to be over.

Steffy: I thought it was, liam. I mean, they pronounced her dead. I thought that sheila could no longer harm me or my family.

Liam: Steffy, hey, she can’T. She actually can’T. No matter how much deacon rants and raves about her still being alive, which is weird.

Steffy: See, that’s– that’s what’s still so frustrating. Like, he’s not able to let her go.

Liam: Well, I– I would say cut the guy some slack, because he’s grieving, except… you know, his actions are hurting you, and that’s not acceptable. And by the way, you know this applies to finn too, right?

Sheila: My husband is just as concerned. But he doesn’t have any more sway over deacon than I do.

Liam: Really? Even though he’s her son?

Steffy: Okay, even though finn is sheila’s biological son, that’s all it’s ever gonna be. She’s never gonna touch finn’s life, or our lives, ever again.

Deacon: I realize this isn’t easy for you, reliving everything sheila put you through.

Lauren: You have no idea.

Deacon: I think I do. Yeah, I love sheila. I mean, as crazy as it sounds to everyone, but… I’m aware of a lot of the awful things she’s done.

Lauren: Just not all of them.

Deacon: Clearly. Especially not the sugar-sheila connection. She never said a word about it.

Lauren: Let’s just say… I don’t know why you let a woman like sheila into your life.

Deacon: I’m not sure either. Not entirely, anyway. But it happened. And now, I’m left trying to figure out something else about sheila.

Lauren: Whether she’s really dead or not.

Deacon: Or if something else is going on. And based on everything you’ve told me, I’m starting to think there is. All right, so… so sheila befriended sugar, who was her warden.

Lauren: Right. And sugar helped her escape. They somehow made it to south america. And sheila promised sugar some plastic surgery. But sheila had the plastic surgeon make sugar identical to sheila. I found out about it when sheila and I were held captive. And that is when–

Deacon: And that’s when she confessed that she made sugar look like her.

Lauren: Confessed? More like bragged. She was so proud of herself that she was able to pull that off. Just another in the long list of crimes by sheila carter.

Deacon: You know, I was really starting to think that I was going crazy. I mean… you know, now that I think about this, I’m more and more convinced that the body that I saw getting torched, that was sugar, not sheila. With cascade platinum plus,

Finn: Does that sound crazy?

Hope: Not wanting your birth mother to be dead? No.

Finn: She did terrible, hurtful things.

Hope: You’ve never made excuses for her, finn. You always knew who sheila was, what she was capable of.

Finn: Exactly. So why aren’t I just glad she’s out of my life forever?

Hope: Well, I don’t want to tell a doctor, but, you know, feelings are complicated. They don’t always make sense.

Finn: Well, in this case, though, it’s not like sheila was part of my world for my entire life. And the fact of the matter is, I was raised by two very loving and amazing adoptive parents who wanted nothing but the best for me. And then, when sheila finally did appear… on my wedding day, no less… for those few moments before I introduced her to steffy and the family, completely unaware of the history that they shared, uh, I– I was thrilled. I mean, I finally had a face and a name to the woman who had carried me for nine months. It was like having all the pieces to the puzzle finally completed, making a picture. You know? At least most of it. Does that make any sense?

Hope: Absolutely.

Finn: You know what doesn’t make any sense, though? How I could still feel something. Or anything for sheila. When she almost took everything that ever mattered to me. My wife, my mom… I mean, my little boy was almost an orphan because of her. And just that should’ve made me want nothing to do with her. Ever. So, I didn’T. At least I know this. Whatever my feelings for sheila, now or then… they aren’t important. Not compared to my feelings for steffy and the kids’ safety and happiness.

Liam: It’s gotta feel good being able to say that.

Steffy: Well, it’s true. Sheila can’t touch our lives ever again.

Liam: Which means that you get to breathe a huge sigh of relief.

Steffy: I do. Feels good that sheila’s not here doing her worst.

Liam: I mean, her worst almost cost you your life, so…

Steffy: My husband’s, too. For months, I thought he was dead. Our lives were turned upside down. And somehow, she got out of her crimes. She, like… she avoided justice. ‘Til the night I grabbed the knife and I defended myself.

Liam: And now, for the first time in ages, you can just relax, right? You don’t have to constantly look over your shoulder and worry about the kids.

Steffy: Yeah, that’s– that’s such a relief. Countless times I stood up to her. And the last time–

Liam: Was fatal. For her.

Steffy: Deacon is an idiot if he actually thinks that sheila is alive.

Deacon: So, I’m guessing this happened quite a while ago. Sugar busting out of the mental facility and posing as sheila.

Lauren: Yes. She attacked my son, scotty. And framed sheila. And she almost got away with it.

Deacon: How did she get busted? You know, it didn’t make sense to me that sheila would attack scott. She loved him too much. But that’s a whole other story. I went to go pay her a visit after she was arrested. And that’s when I noticed it.

Deacon: Noticed what?

Lauren: Sheila had severely hurt her ankle. And was walking with a limp. But when they led this sheila away… there was no limp. She was walking perfectly. The police confirmed it and the fingerprints didn’t match.

Deacon: This is– this is unbelievable.

Lauren: And that’s when the floodgates opened up. Sugar confessed everything. She said she did it to– to get back at sheila. She gave up everything for sheila. Her face. Her freedom. So, I mean, honestly, van you even blame her?

Deacon: For– for what? For hating her? For turning her back on her? I mean, that is what you’re saying, right? That sugar had it out for sheila, right?

Lauren: That’s exactly what I’m saying. (Chef vo) fancy feast.

Hope: You do realize you are way overdue, right?

Finn: For what?

Hope: Oh, just… husband and father of the year nomination. I mean, no, really. It’s your unwavering commitment to the kids and your wife. You’re always putting them first.

Finn: You don’t think liam deserves a nom?

Hope: Ah, I think he deserves father of the year, absolutely. He is a great dad. But I do believe your category was husband and father of the year.

Finn: So, we’re not in direct competition for that.

Hope: No, I think you can rest easy on that one. But you really do love it, don’t you?

Finn: Being married to steffy? Yeah. And being the father of two of the most splendiferous kids.

Hope: Oh, splendiferous?

Finn: Yeah. Yes, splendiferous. It’s– it’s kelly’s new favorite word. She’s been using it all the time. Steffy and I have no idea where she picked it up, but she’s been using it constantly. I think it’s wearing off on– on hayes, too. Well, maybe not. I don’t know.

Hope: See, this is what I’m talking about. It’s just– it’s the way you delight in your kids and– and being a husband and your devotion to them. Finn, you’re a good man. And steffy should know how lucky she is to have you.

Steffy: Well, I know you’re in the building to talk business with carter, so I’m assuming that you need to get back to spencer.

Liam: You giving me the heave-ho?

Steffy: I’m not doing that. I just don’t want to waste your time talking about sheila.

Liam: I don’t care. I’ll talk to you anytime, about anything.

Steffy: I know but you have a life, too.

Liam: Well, as it happens, the two biggest priorities in the aforementioned life happen to be my two beautiful, sweet daughters, and you happen to be one of their mothers. Which is kind of why I’m doing all this soul-searching lately, just trying to be the best man and father I can be right now.

Steffy: I think you’re pretty terrific as you are.

Liam: Aw, shucks, thanks. But you’re a little biased. We spent a long time together. We were extremely close and we were fiercely in love. And that– that kind of love, it doesn’t just die.

Deacon: So, you really think sugar could be looking for some payback against of sheila?

Lauren: You’re getting ahead of yourself.

Deacon: How?

Lauren: Sugar is still in prison for her own crimes.

Deacon: What?

Lauren: I just told you. She attacked my son. She tried to kill him.

Deacon: I hope she didn’t succeed.

Lauren: No, no, no, thank god. But if you’re asking me if sugar despises sheila, one hundred percent. Sheila changed her face to look like her own. She set her up to go to prison for her crimes. So, if you think that she has been dreaming about getting revenge on sheila, absolutely.

Deacon: Right.

Lauren: But remember…

Deacon: She’s locked up. She’s not a threat. Unless…

Lauren: Unless what?

Deacon: What– what was sugar’s real name?

Lauren: It was janet webber. Why?

Deacon: I’ve got to find out everything I can about her.

Lauren: Oh, I was so hoping that my decades-long war with sheila was over, and that she was dead. Now, it seems that that may not be the case. Okay, look, I, uh, I’ve gotta get back to genoa city. But deacon, I hope you’re wrong. I hope your eyes were playing tricks on you and that it was sheila that was cremated.

Deacon: Sheila, what happened to you?

[ Upbeat music ]

Deacon: Answer me, lauren. What do you know about sugar? Does that name mean anything to you? Sheila was texting with her before she went to steffy’S. Lauren, answer me! Who the hell is sugar?

[ Knock on door ]

Finn: Oh, hey.

Hope: Uh, did I catch you at a bad time?

Finn: No, no, no. I just, um, I just got back from a swim, actually.

Hope: Oh, well, funny you should say that. Speaking of, kelly’s goggles.

Finn: Oh, nice. She forgot these, huh?

Hope: Yeah, and I just– you know, things are still a little tense with steffy at work and I just happened to be driving by, so…

Finn: Hm.

Hope: Plus, I just– I wanted to check on you and see how you were doing after…

Finn: You know deacon’s eccentric and quirky?

Steffy: Yeah, clearly. He dated sheila.

Finn: Right, well, now you can add paranoid and delusional to the list. Because get this. Deacon is questioning whether or not sheila is actually dead.

Steffy: What?

Finn: Deacon’s convinced himself sheila may still be alive.

[ Knock on door ]

Liam: Yo, steffy.

Steffy: Liam, hi. What?

Liam: Good, she is alive.

Steffy: What?

Liam: Well, I’ve texted you, like, four times.

Steffy: Oh, you did? Oh. Oh, my phone’s on silent. God, for a second I– I thought you meant, um…

Liam: Meant what? Hey, are you okay? What’s going on with you?

Finn: Yeah, well I appreciate you checking in on me. Especially when I know you’re not a fan of sheila’S.

Hope: Well, even though i might not exactly be sad about sheila’s death, I– I can still be sympathetic to you. I know you’re going through a lot. She’s still your birth mother and, uh, how it all happened is…

Finn: I mean, has it been easy? No. But sheila only had herself to blame.

Hope: Well, when she was alive, she certainly posed a threat to your marriage. She put a strain on it.

Finn: Yeah, wondering if and when she would snap again. And, well, she finally did.

Hope: Well, I guess maybe that’s the silver lining, then? You and steffy, you don’t ever have to worry about sheila carter ever again.

Steffy: Actually, you’re here for the meeting, right? How did it go with the ad budget?

Liam: Yes. Yeah, uh… no, carter and I, we hammered it all out. We even talked about online presence and it’s good. It’s all good. I just figured I’d pop in to update you after. But, uh, clearly, it’s not a great time.

[ Steffy sighs ]

Steffy: You know, just when you think you’re able to, like, move on, close a chapter, some idiot just chimes in and yanks you back to where you were.

Liam: Ooh. Who’s the idiot?

Steffy: Deacon. I think you know how hard this has been. And I’m still just trying to process killing someone. You know, my husband’s biological mother, and I’m really trying to come to terms with that. But it’s, uh–

Liam: And deacon is interfering with that process? Or…

Steffy: Deacon thinks… deacon thinks sheila still may be alive.

Deacon: How did sheila know this sugar person? Lauren, tell me, please! You know exactly who she is.

Lauren: The sugar that I know couldn’t possibly be texting sheila. Or anyone else, for that matter. Because she’s in jail.

Deacon: Why?

Lauren: That is ancient history. And you know what? I do not want to talk about sheila or sugar ever again. And I strongly advise you to forget about sheila and anyone that she could be texting.

Deacon: Wait, lauren, please. I’m sorry. Look, I can see this is upsetting you. I am not trying to stress you out here with bad memories, but I’ve got serious reason to believe that sheila is still alive, as crazy as that might sound.

Lauren: It is extremely crazy, and I’m not listening to it.

Deacon: Please, lauren. No one has history with sheila like you. You may be the one person who can help me figure this out.

Lauren: Oh, because I’m the resident sheila expert? How I hate that title. And I hate knowing what I know about that psychopath!

Deacon: You might not know everything. There’s something sheila did, it was an act of desperation. Something she did recently to stay out of jail. To stay alive. Sheila has nine toes.

Lauren: Yes, I know she cut one off. So, what does some fake bear attack have anything to do with sheila being dead? My celebrity colorist?

Hope: Wait, wait, wait. What– what, um… so, are you– are you seriously telling me that–

Finn: Yeah. Yeah, and your dad is convinced. And like this was seconds before the body was engulfed in flames. And so, there’s no way for him to actually confirm how many toes were on the body.

Hope: Well, then, I mean, obviously, he’s mistaken.

Finn: Obviously.

Hope: Yeah, I mean, there’s no way that he could be… no. No. No. Like sheila, she came here that night. She tried to attack steffy. Steffy had to defend herself, so I don’t know what my dad thinks he saw, but, uh, clearly, he’s wrong. I mean, we all know the person that steffy killed that night was sheila.

Steffy: It is ridiculous that deacon’s telling people this.

Liam: So, like, what’s going on? I mean, is he just losing his mind or something?

Steffy: The man lost his mind when he fell for sheila.

Liam: Uh, that’s fair. But it is weird, right? Like, ’cause he knows exactly what happened. Sheila broke into your place, and she refused to leave, and she came after you, and you–

Steffy: I stabbed her. In self-defense. Deacon knows exactly what went down. Sheila died in my house. There’s no questioning that.

Liam: Well, clearly, in deacon’s mind, there is questioning. Because, uh, apparently he thinks he saw ten toes.

[ Steffy sighs ]

Steffy: Okay, liam, there could be so many explanations.

Liam: I–

Steffy: One being, he saw wrong. He was stressed out in the moment, he saw her body go in, and– I mean, can you really trust your eyes in that situation? Like, deacon is wrong. He is dead wrong. And I say that literally, because I know sheila’s not alive.

Lauren: Sheila faked her own death. Doesn’t that show you how truly insane she was?

Deacon: Or maybe still is. Insane enough to cheat death again. Look, I went to the crematorium, okay? I didn’t want her to be alone.

Lauren: Faithful and misled ’til the very end.

Deacon: It was important to me, all right? I wanted to be by her side one last time. Just to say goodbye. And so I pulled the sheet back to look at her beautiful face, and I said goodbye.

Lauren: I’m sure it was a very special moment for you. Now I need to–

Deacon: Wait, wait, listen. Just as she was about to go into the flames, the sheet fell, exposing her feet. And that’s when I saw it, lauren. I saw ten toes.

Lauren: It’s not possible sheila cut one off.

Deacon: No, it isn’t possible, is it? Because the body that i mourned, the one that I had a– a service for, that wasn’t sheila.

Lauren: Deacon, you’ve got to stop doing this. The body was identified. You saw her.

Deacon: Yes, yes. Once at the morgue, and like I’m trying to tell you, right before she went into the cremator.

Lauren: Then how can you even question that sheila’s alive?

Deacon: The ten toes!

Lauren: You must’ve been seeing things.

Deacon: Don’t you think that I’ve been wondering that too? I’ve been playing this back in my mind again and again. Lauren, I thought I was going insane. I’m telling you, I saw ten toes. That was not sheila.

Lauren: Oh, my god.

Deacon: What?

Lauren: Sugar. When my doctor gave me breztri for my copd

Hope: Okay, well, now I’m– I’m certainly more concerned about my dad if he’s having these delusions.

Finn: Look, I think it’s– I think it’s all part of the grieving process. At least that’s what I tried to tell him. I mean, the power of grief can take the mind to some odd places, sometimes. And this is the way his mind is choosing to cope with the loss.

Hope: By hoping that he hasn’t lost her at all. Is that what you’re trying to say? That he’s just telling himself that he saw what he saw in order to keep some shred of sheila alive?

Steffy: Look, if deacon wants to believe that sheila is alive, fine, but he needs to keep it to himself.

Liam: Yeah, I mean, is he actually going around telling people this?

Steffy: Yes!

Liam: Oof.

Steffy: And it’s so annoying! And it’s really disturbing. I mean, we are all just trying to move on with our lives.

Liam: We all have moved on with our lives, except deacon. I mean, clearly he’s just stuck on it.

Steffy: He’s enamored with sheila. He can’t let her go. He can’t accept that she is gone. I mean, when I think about everything that woman has done to us, just– it’s just–

Liam: Yeah, I mean, I get it. The last thing you need right now is somebody just gaslighting you into thinking she’s still alive.

Deacon: Okay, um, just tell me what you know about sugar.

Lauren: I’ve tried so, so hard to get her out of my mind. It was, uh, so long ago.

Deacon: So, you do know her? Is she from genoa city?

Lauren: Los angeles. Sheila met her in prison.

Deacon: What, was she like her cellmate or something?

Lauren: She was her warden. And it wasn’t long until sheila worked her magic and convinced sugar to help her escape.

Deacon: Oh, my god.

Lauren: And that’s when they resurfaced in genoa city.

Deacon: So sheila and sugar, they were pretty tight-knit. Sheila never said a word about that.

Lauren: Tight? They were one and the same.

Deacon: One and the same?

Lauren: Sheila was in the mental ward, where she belonged. And I went to go see her because I had to make sure it was her for my own peace of mind.

Deacon: Okay, wait, wait. So, what does this have to do with sugar?

Lauren: Everything, deacon. Everything.

Deacon: How? I– I don’t get it. Make me understand.

Lauren: Okay, stop asking questions and start listening. Because you are gonna be as blown away as I was.

Hope: My poor dad. I wish he could just let sheila go instead of trying to convince himself that, what, she’s out there somewhere? I mean, who– who does he think they cremated, then?

Finn: I don’t know. But your father obviously loved sheila very much. You know, there was one thing that he asked me when he was trying to convince me that sheila was still alive.

Hope: What?

Finn: He asked me if part of me still wishes my birth mother was still alive.

Hope: What did you say to that?

Finn: I told him it doesn’t matter how I feel. My birth mother’s gone. Sheila carter’s dead.

Liam: Well, look, deacon’s obviously wrong about this. And if anybody knows that, it’s you.

Steffy: Right. What’s more plausible here? Either deacon didn’t see the toes correctly, or I, I don’t know, I just killed a stranger in my house and told everyone that it’s sheila.

Liam: Also, not to mention, there was a full-on investigation, right? Like, they identified the body. What– what’s he got to say about that?

Steffy: I don’t know. He’s just not living in this reality. I think he’d be saying things differently if he were in my shoes.

[ Steffy gasps ]

Steffy: Sheila, I know it’s you. You stay– you stay away from me. You stay the hell away from me. Get out.

Sheila: No!

Steffy: I’m never gonna forget it. It still haunts me. But deacon is wrong. I killed sheila. She’s dead and gone and she’s never coming back.

Deacon: Figured you for a whiskey gal. So, sheila was in the nut house.

Lauren: For the criminally insane. Or so I thought.

Deacon: Wait, thought? What do you mean thought? Either she was or she wasn’T.

Lauren: Okay, just listen. It will all start to make sense. A few months later, sheila and I were stuck in this–

Deacon: Wait, stuck?

Lauren: Oh, long story. The point is, all that time, I thought she was locked up. And then, I learned…

Sheila: That wasn’t me in the mental institution.

Lauren: But I saw your face.

Sheila: Brings a whole new meaning to the phrase extreme makeover, doesn’t it?

Lauren: Who was it?

Sheila: Very good friend of mine, sugar.

Lauren: Sugar? Who’s that?

Sheila: She was my warden. I convinced her that I was being treated unjustly and she helped me escape.

Lauren: Treated unjustly? After all the horrible things–

Sheila: Do you wanna hear this or not?

Sheila: We– we fled down to south america and that is where sugar sacrificed her face for the cause.

Lauren: How’d you get her to do it?

Sheila: She thought she was going in for a little lift.

Lauren: But instead she came out looking just like you.

Sheila: Well, fortunately, the plastic surgeons down in south america, they’re not quite as honest as the ones up here, lauren.

Lauren: So, you bribed them?

Sheila: Everyone lived happily ever after. Except for sugar. She took my place in hemet.

Lauren: I’m sure she told them she wasn’t you.

Sheila: She’s in a mental institution for the criminally insane. She tells people she’s not sheila carter and they think she’s delusional.

Lauren: My god.

Deacon: What are you telling me, lauren?

Lauren: That there’s someone out there that looks exactly like sheila. Someone with ten toes.

Deacon: Sugar. I was right. It wasn’t sheila that got cremated. She’s– she’s alive. My god, sheila’s alive.

Luna: Here’s a look ahead. I broke his heart.

Brooke: She is not to blame. It was her mother’s drugs.

Finn: You have me thinking.

Deacon: Good, ’cause I’m right. We need to find her right now.

Steffy: Deacon is an idiot if he actually thinks that sheila’s alive.

Deacon: You recognize her, don’t you?

Recap written by Suzanne

At home, Finn tells Steffy that he already picked up dinner, so they can just heat it up for a romantic evening when she gets home late from work. When Steffy realizes he got the food from Deacon, she guesses that he’s still saying that Sheila might still be alive. Finn tells her that Deacon is still struggling with Sheila’s death. After some discussion, he assures her that he’s focused on her and the kids now, not Sheila or her death. They kiss and say, “I love you.” He tells her that he’ll give her a back rub later, and then they go back to talk about Deacon and Sheila.

Lauren is in town again, visiting Eric. She asks about his health, so he tells her that he’s doing well. She mentions once more that they’re so lucky not to have to worry about Sheila again. She lets him know that she saw Steffy last time she was visiting. They discuss her and Finn, and then Eric mentions that Deacon is not celebrating Sheila’s death. She can’t believe that he fell for her. Eric reminds her that he once did, too. Lauren reminds him that he was conned by Sheila, not knowing she was a psycho (unlike Deacon). They both agree that they beat Sheila by surviving her.

Deacon keeps wondering who Sugar is. He does a search online but doesn’t find anything. He wonders again if he’s going crazy, but he’s sure that he saw ten toes, so he vows not to give up looking for her. Later, Lauren finds him look at Sheila’s picture on her computer while he thinks. She tells him to detail that photo and any reminders of Sheila. He knows that she had a bad history with Sheila, but he knew her differently. She’s glad Sheila’s gone, but he wonders if Sheila could still be alive. They go through what happened (with Steffy stabbing Sheila). Lauren is walking out when Deacon asks her if she knows someone named, “Sugar.” She stops, shocked, and looks at him. It’s clear that she knows the name.

Zende keeps arguing with RJ to forgive Luna for sleeping with him. RJ gets annoyed and tells RJ that he stabbed him in the back. Zende says that he’s sorry that he betrayed his cousin, and he hopes that he forgives him one day. He urges RJ not to blow his relationship with Luna. RJ also blasts Poppy for her drug use. Zende and Poppy leave Luna and RJ alone to talk. He asks her why she didn’t tell him right after it happened. She wishes she had, but she explains that she didn’t want to ruin his relationship with Zende. He tells her that he needs some time. Luna agrees, looking miserable.
