Donna: Here you go. It’s finally happening.

Nurse: We’ll miss you around here.

Eric: Been nothing but trouble for you since I’ve been here.

Nurse: Good trouble.

Eric: Thank you. Thank you for all your attentiveness and taking such good care of me. Thank you. And you, doctor. It wasn’t for you, this wouldn’t be happening, so I– I don’t know how to thank you. I– I can’t thank you enough.

Donna: I second that.

Ridge: If you’d told me a few weeks ago that we’d be here waiting for Dad to come home… I don’t know. I thought it was the end.

Brooke: So thankful it wasn’t Just so happy he’s gonna come home from the hospital. Just think what would have happened if you told Finn not to go through with that procedure.

Ridge: I hope he understands why I did what I did.

Sheila: And I’m gonna need two sidecars for table six, when you can do it, please.

Deacon: You know, I think I’m regretting giving Hollis the day off. I didn’t expect it to be this crowded.

Sheila: It’s become the norm lately. I– It’s understandable. It’s the best pizza in town.

Deacon: Best waitress in town too. That’s what keeps them coming back.

Sheila: Are you flirting?

Deacon: I could be.

Sheila: Are you flirting with me? That might get you lucky later. But what about the people that stopped coming because of me?

Deacon: I don’t want you worrying about that now, right? We’re doing just fine. Fantastic. I can’t get Brooke or Hope to come down here and this guy, it’s like three meals a day.

Sheila: You better go wait on your favorite customer, honey.

Deacon: Welcome back. So, a table for two?

Bill: Please.

Deacon: You’re in luck. We have one right here. And we happen to have a very special mushroom risotto. Best of all the lovely, charming Sheila will be your server. Here you go.

Bill: Interesting. When you said luck, I thought you meant the good kind.

Bill: I’m glad you agreed to see me again. The truth is, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you.

Poppy: A memory of the night we spent together all those years ago.

Bill: Yes, that. And the new memories that I’m hoping to make.

Sheila: Why’d you put them in my section? What? Did you do this on purpose? You thought it would be funny?

Deacon: I thought you could have a little fun with him. Hey, who knows? Maybe we’ll get lucky. We’ll get a crying toddler that comes in and we can seat him next to their table. Better yet, better yet, Tell Bill every time he uses his credit card that it’s declined.

Sheila: You know, he’s gonna pay with hundreds.

Deacon: That’s why they call him–

Both: Dollar Bill.

Sheila: Yeah, here goes. Hello. Hello. Bill, welcome back to Il Giardino. Uh, I don’t– I don’t think I’ve had the pleasure of meeting your new friend.

Poppy: I’m Poppy.

Sheila: Hi, Poppy, I’m Sheila. I’ll be your server. Can I start you with a drink?

Poppy: Uh, I’d love a still water.

Sheila: Okay.

Bill: If you don’t know my drink order by now, you’re an even worse waitress than I thought.

Sheila: Oh, no, I’ve got your number. Uh, would you like to know the specials?

Bill: No.

Sheila: Very well. I’ll get those drinks right up.

Bill: Just so you understand, I’m not normally rude to waitresses.

Poppy: Okay.

Bill: In fact, quite the opposite.

Poppy: So, this Sheila person…

Bill: Is the same Sheila who tried to kill your sister.

Ridge: He wanted to go. And I took that away from him.

Brooke: Are you serious? Eric is so happy to be alive. Ridge, he loves you. He loves his entire family. His work. There’s a reason he fought to be here. Trust me. If he wanted to go, he would have.

Eric: I really didn’t think I was ever gonna get out of here and certainly not to walk out on my own two feet. I don’t know. I don’t know if I can even process this.

Donna: Well, let’s just process this at home, shall we? It’s time and we’re done, right? All the paperwork’s good and…

Finn: Yeah, we’re good. Get out of here before I have to kick you out.

Eric: Oh, I don’t think it’s gonna come to that.

Finn: Eric. Congratulations. I know you– you credit me with this, but this is because of you and your hard work and your determination.

Eric: This is about the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. Donna, I– I– I was gone for a while. I went somewhere and I… And what happened there, I’m never going to forget. I’m never gonna forget it for the rest of my life. I thank you for everything– everything you did. I’m so grateful. I’ll never forget.

Sheila: Here we go. A still water for you, Poppy. And a scotch neat for Mr. Spencer. I’ll be right back to take your order.

Poppy: I’m gonna throw my drink in her face, you know? And give her a piece of my mind for what she did to my sister.

Bill: As much as I would like to see that, and I really would, you know, I do remember, you had a bit of a feisty side. Oh, listen, now it’s– it’s not worth it. Sheila is legitimately dangerous and eventually, she will snap and find herself back behind bars.

Poppy: You think?

Bill: I do? Hey, uh, that could be our next date. Just, you know, a fun night out visiting Sheila in prison.

Poppy: Mr. Romantic here.

Bill: Oh, we’d take you to the finest penitentiaries. I noticed you didn’t say no, so that must mean you’re open to seeing me again.

Poppy: Very open.

Carter: Hey, is that Eric? Is he–

Ridge: He’s not here yet.

Brooke: Donna texted and said they’re on their way.

Carter: Oh, must be thrilled. And I hope it’s okay that I’m here. You know how much I care about Eric and I wanted to be here to welcome him home.

Ridge: You’re family, Carter.

Donna: All right. Just take your time, take your time.

Ridge: There he is.

Carter: Man of the hour.

Eric: I should get at least a week.

Brooke: Oh, you’re here, Eric.

Eric: Hi.

Brooke: You’re really here.

Eric: I– Don’t hug me. Don’t. I wanna hug everybody, but I can’t. I– I– I’m so glad to be here. Hi. All right.

Carter: So good to see you out of that hospital.

Eric: Thanks.

Carter: Healthy.

Eric: Thank you. Ridge.

Ridge: Welcome home, Dad.

Deacon: All right, good.

Sheila: Okay.

Deacon: Date seems to be going well. She’s letting him hold her hand.

Sheila: She probably thinks she hit the jackpot. Handsome, wealthy man, like Bill. Poor, poor Poppy though. She doesn’t realize he is not what he seems.

Deacon: Poppy. Cute name.

Sheila: Yeah. Cute name, cute personality. I can– I can see why he’s interested.

Deacon: Poor Poppy. She has no idea what she’s in for.

Bill: Uh-oh, another one of your special mints. Don’t tell me you’re nervous.

Poppy: Should I be?

Bill: Not at all? I have very high hopes for us.

Brooke: I was so close to inviting everybody over to surprise you.

Donna: But then common sense won over and we decided not to overwhelm you.

Eric: It’s all right.

Ridge: You okay, Dad?

Eric: Yeah, I’m okay. I’m okay. It’s just– I, uh, I was never sure I was gonna be able to set foot in this house here.

Brooke: We weren’t sure about that either, but we are all so happy that you’re back home, Eric.

Carter: You never count out the great Eric Forrester. You’ve been like a father to me, Eric, and you believed in me. You, uh, you saw promise in me and I accomplished so many goals thanks to you. What’s most important is that you opened up your home and your family to me. You’ve shown me so much grace and forgiveness and for that, Eric, I am so grateful. And I’m glad I get to tell you that now, with you here. Because I wasn’t ready to lose you.

Bill: You know something I remember about you from the festival, besides how gorgeous you were? Was the way you made everything seem so carefree and magical. Now, here we are some -plus years later and you still have that same quality. To me, you haven’t changed a bit. Uh, except for the fact that you’ve raised your– your beautiful daughter, of course.

Sheila: Look at her. Her eyes are just glazing over. She’s probably falling for every single lie he’s telling her. Okay, what? All right. Okay, so the lies were easy to fall for.

Deacon: You– you’re not really helping your cause here. Cut some more limes. Yeah.

Poppy: Well, it’s very kind of you to say that I haven’t changed, but let’s face it, I’ve aged.

Bill: Oh, come on now. I mean, we’ve all aged. But the essence of you, your style, that smile. Yes, that– that exact smile right there. I can see you dancing in the moonlight, smiling at me. As a matter of fact, I’m pretty sure you were dancing to this.

Bill: Oh, you bet I have it. I could never forget those moves.

Poppy: Turn it down.

Bill: Oh, I’m gonna turn it up, if anything. In fact, I’m daring you. Huh? Double dare you. Let’s see you girl.

Bill: You are really Let’s see you girl.

Bill: You are really something, you know that?

Poppy: I’ve been told.

Bill: Transporting me back in time, just watching you moving so beautifully, gracefully, and effortlessly. What a surprise you are. A magical surprise when I– when I needed it most.

Eric: I’m sorry that Carter had to leave. I’m sorry. He said wonderful things.

Ridge: You made a huge impact on his life, obviously.

Brooke: On all of us.

Donna: Especially me. I mean, where would I even be without you? And we came a little too close to finding out.

Brooke: Carter said it the best. He wasn’t ready to lose you. None of us were. It just feels so good to have you here now and we get to spend more time with you.

Ridge: More time with the greatest man I know. We weren’t ready to say goodbye. Were you? You said you went to the other side? We haven’t talked about it. Did you want to stay?

Eric: Well, I– I– I’ll tell you, Ridge. Everybody fears death. Everybody’s afraid of it. I was just like everybody else. I was afraid to die. I was scared. God knows I was– I was scared. And then I went to this place, this– It’s a crossing place, crossing over place and I saw, I heard, uh… You know how people say that, um, they saw the light?

Donna: Yeah, of course.

Eric: I said I did. And– and hearing and seeing are the same thing in there. They’re not separate. You can hear the light and you can see the music and– and, uh, everything that I felt, I was part of it. Uh, It was coming through me. I saw your mother. She’s there. She’s… waiting for me And, um, I was relieved of, uh, things that I was feeling that were bad. My body felt fine. I– I was– I was free of all pain and ache and it just– It was– it was gonna be the perfect exit.

Ridge: Dad, I–

Eric: No, wait, I wanna– I wanna say this to you. And I wanna say that to you too. There’s nothing to be afraid of. It’s wonderful there. It’s a beautiful, beautiful place and– and as– as wonderful as life is here, just you wait. Just– just you wait. It’s– it’s full of love and light, love and light. And so, uh, I was ready. I was– I was going there. And now, I’m back here.

Ridge: Did I let you down? Did I make the wrong decision? Did you wanna go?

Steffy: It feels so good being safe in your arms. Life has just been so crazy lately.

Finn: Hm. Yeah. Yeah, it has. But tonight, we’re only acknowledging the good stuff. All right? Like how lucky I am to be married to the most beautiful, amazing woman on the planet.

Steffy: No, I am the lucky one. My husband can actually work miracles. No, seriously, you brought my grandfather back from the brink of death. Not only brilliant, but you’re kind and you’re funny, and you’re incredibly sexy. I love you more than I can say.

R.J.: You look good, Granddad.

Luna: Yeah, you got your color back and that twinkle in your eye.

Eric: Then tell the doctor, I want to get out of here.

R.J.: Are you– you going a little stir crazy?

Eric: Okay. Yeah. Yeah. As much as I appreciate you visiting me, and I do, I wanna go home, I wanna be in my own bed. I want to see Donna. I want to get back to this– this life I have.

R.J.: You will. But, you know, until then, there’s no place I’d rather be than right here in this room. By your side.

Eric: As long as Luna is by yours.

Poppy: Luna. Are you here? Hello, Bill.

Bill: I miss you.

Poppy: Now, how is that even possible? We’ve only had one date.

Bill: That’s the problem. We need to rectify that. It’s only one. You available tonight?

Poppy: Well, actually, I’m hoping to spend some time with Luna.

Bill: I can certainly understand why. She is just a beautiful, accomplished, young woman. Any parent would be proud.

Bill: How about tomorrow? We could, uh, do Il Giordino again. You can choose a meal that you couldn’t decide on last time.

Poppy: I’d like that.

Bill: Then, it’s a date.

Poppy: I’ll see you tomorrow, Bill.

Li: What are you doing here, Penelope?

Wyatt: Hey, Dad. There you are.

Bill: Everything okay?

Wyatt: Uh, yeah. Yeah. No, I just, I– I wanted to uh– I wanted to I wanted to talk to you about something.

Bill: Well, here I am. What’s going on?

Wyatt: I don’t know. I, uh, I kind of feel like I need a change. Maybe move out of here, maybe– maybe even L.A.

Poppy: Like it or not, this is where my daughter works. I was looking for Luna.

Li: Such a convenient excuse, isn’t it? And no, I don’t like it. None of it. I especially object to Luna’s involvement with RJ, who just happens to be Steffy’s brother.

Eric: I can picture it now. Sitting on the patio, looking at the view, drinking my coffee looking at the view. Drinking a martini, looking at the view.

R.J.: That reminds me, we gotta get you fully stocked. for when you get back, right?

Eric: That’s my boy.

R.J.: Who is it?

Luna: oh, I, um, I have to get back to the office.

R.J.: Come on. Let’s go.

Luna: No, no, no. Stay. I’ll just call you when I’m about to leave.

R.J.: Are you sure?

Luna: Yeah, positive. We all have important things to do.

R.J.: We sure do.

Eric: I’m so glad you two found each other.

R.J.: So are we. There’s a lot to be thankful for in this room, but especially you, Granddad. You know, you– you’re like a living medical miracle now. On top of everything else that you are, sir. I mean– I mean, none of us are gonna be able to thank Finn enough for– for saving your life.

Steffy: I was so scared when I thought Granddad was dying. Like I– I couldn’t imagine my life or this world without him. And then when I wasn’t able to say anything, it was just– it was really awful. But then it all turned around. I mean, you gave us the most profound gift.

Finn: And speaking of… I have some good news about Eric.

Wyatt: If I leave town, is that something that you can get behind?

Bill: Well, I’m not happy about it. I like having my sons close. But if it’s something you feel you need to do for yourself, then who am I to stand in your way.

Wyatt: Look, you’ve been extremely generous for letting me live here when Taylor moved out and everything.

Bill: Don’t be ridiculous. I just– I’m just glad it worked out for you.

Wyatt: Thanks. I’ve made a lot of good memories here. It couldn’t be a– Couldn’t have been a better place to call home And just so you know, I– I did, I– I found a renter. You know, while you’re trying to figure out what you want to do with the place and I think it’s– I think they’re– they’re a good candidate. I think you’ll– you’ll approve.

Bill: Thank you. That saves me a call to Cindy. You know, the head of our– our real estate team. Don’t have to worry about leasing it out.

Wyatt: But enough about me and my evolving situation, what about you? Liam tells me about this new woman in your life.

Bill: Ah, yes. The beautiful, mysterious Poppy.

Poppy: Luna came here to start the career she’s wanted ever since she was a little girl.

Li: She set her eyes on RJ the second she walked in that door. Why? I guess that old saying has merit. Like mother, like daughter.

Poppy: Are you done?

Li: Actually, no. I heard you on the phone before I was about to come in. It was obvious you were talking to a man. I even knew before I heard you call him Bill. Another lonely, wealthy suitor. Or should I say sugar daddy?

R.J.: So, is– is everyone still treating you well here?

Eric: Yes.

R.J.: Yeah?

Eric: Finn, mostly. He’s a wonderful doctor and he’s a terrific guy, you know. But I gotta tell you something. If I never see him again in a hospital setting, it’ll be too soon.

is impressed by Eric’s progress. I mean, it’s remarkable how far he’s come so quickly.

Steffy: Yeah. It’s hard to believe that he technically died in recovery.

Finn: Yeah, but he came back strong. So much so that if all goes well, and I have no reason to believe it won’t, Eric’s going home.

Steffy: Soon?

Finn: Tomorrow.

Steffy: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. He’s gonna be released? He’s going home? Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Wyatt: So, tell me about this new woman in your life. >>

Bill: Well, I wouldn’t say that she is in my life quite yet, but I am working on it.

Wyatt: Well, look at you all smitten. Wow. I mean, Liam said that you guys met in what? In the Bay area? Some–

Bill: Golden Gate Music Festival.

Wyatt: I’m sorry, what? The universe just– just tilted a little bit. What were you doing at a music festival?

Bill: What are you talking about? You know, your dad gets down.

Wyatt: Don’t do that at all.

Bill: I love music. You know that.

Wyatt: I just can’t picture Bill Spencer, uh, slumming it for three days in a tent while eating mystery meat out of a commune truck.

Bill: Number one, I had a set up like a Bedouin king. But look, that’s beside the point. Do you want to hear about Poppy or not?

Wyatt: Yes, please share.

Bill: I was walking back to the camp and uh, something caught my eye. And it was just this magnificent creature. I mean, she was dancing in a way that I– I had never seen. She was just so free and– and totally uninhibited. But when the music stopped, she locked in on– on me. It was powerful, magnetic. And it just led to this incredible evening together.

Wyatt: It sounds like this Poppy made quite the impression on you.

Bill: She did. I mean, as the saying goes, right? We made beautiful music together. In fact, I– I think you could say that we created magic.

Poppy: I really don’t appreciate this judgmental attitude. You have made this villain version of me. This calculating, well, gold digger now, I guess, who only thinks of herself.

Li: That sounds about right. Especially when it comes to men. It’s always the same pattern. He has to be strong, handsome, but his number one qualification, he has to have money. Lots of it. So you can keep selling your hippie clothes at festivals instead of getting a real job. That is your current plan. To hook up with some poor, unsuspecting sucker here in Los Angeles, so you can lay down your roots. I’m warning you, Penelope, don’t try it.

Poppy: You can’t tell me where to live.

Li: I won’t stop, Penelope. I don’t want you here, or Luna. And I won’t rest until you are both gone.

Luna: Um, Was that Aunt Li until you are both gone.

Luna: Um, Was that Aunt Li I just saw leaving?

Poppy: Yeah, I’m afraid so.

Luna: Hey, she ripped into you again, didn’t she?

Poppy: Yeah. And with a new angle this time. Your aunt called me a gold digger.

Eric: I want to go home.

R.J.: I know. Granddad, I– I– I know– I know you do, okay? I know, you’re frustrated, but you– you’ve come so far. All right? So just be patient just a little bit longer, okay?

Eric: Face it. Patience is overrated.

Finn: Hey.

R.J.: Hey, doctor. Your, um, your patient’s getting a little restless, he wants to see the world again.

Finn: Yeah, well, we want that for you too, Eric.

Eric: Yeah, yeah, I know. But we haven’t made quite enough progress as we wanted and we still have a couple of bars to clear before we’re done, so I get it.

Finn: Well, contrary to what you’re expecting, we came in here to tell you that if all goes well, you’ll be going home tomorrow.

R.J.: You’re ready.

Wyatt: I mean, you must have been blown away with seeing Poppy after all those years.

Bill: Oh, I’m– I’m just sitting there in Il Giardino and in walks this apparition from the past and I mean, at first, you know, it just didn’t quite register.

Wyatt: Well, did she recognize you?

Bill: Everybody recognizes me. But look, if she didn’t recognize me, she did a very good job of– of hiding it. Now, she didn’t blow me off and then finally, it hit me. Pretty crazy. Huh?

Wyatt: Maybe not. What do you mean?

Wyatt: Well, I mean, you basically turned yourself inside out to try and get Katie back, and for the first time ever, nothing you did worked.

Bill: Yeah. Thanks for the reminder.

Wyatt: I’m just saying, maybe things didn’t work out with Katie because Poppy is supposed to be a part of your future.

Bill: Well, stranger things have happened, right?

Wyatt: I mean, that would be amazing, right? If Poppy, this– this woman from your past just suddenly showed up with the most surprising, unexpected gift.

Luna: Aunt Li goes way too far.

Poppy: Yeah. Try telling her that. Lua: I mean, seriously, where does she get off? I mean, calling you a gold digger?

Poppy: I have dated men with money, okay? But it’s not the way your Aunt Li makes it sound. That, you know, there was no targeting.

Luna: I know.

Poppy: I just went where my heart led me.

Luna: What?

Poppy: Just, can you imagine her reaction if she knew it led me to Bill Spencer years ago?

Luna: Oh, and that he’s interested in you again? He’s one of the richest men in Los Angeles. I mean her head would explode.

Poppy: Well, you don’t know the half of it.

Luna: So, where do things stand? With you and Bill, I mean?

Poppy: I’m seeing him again tomorrow.

Luna: Awesome. You must be so excited.

Poppy: Well, we are just getting reacquainted.

Luna: But that could lead to finding out that you’re still into each other, maybe more than before.

Poppy: Okay, you are getting way ahead of yourself, sweetheart.

Luna: We’ll see. But in the meantime I approve. I like Bill. Um, I have since the moment I met him. I like having him around.

Eric: This is really happening?

R.J.: He’s– he’s gonna get released like tomorrow?

Steffy: It is the best news.

Finn: Look, I’m not saying it’s definite, but as long as you don’t have any setbacks tonight. Um, yeah, you’re out of here.

Eric: I– I can’t– I can’t tell you what that means to me. Yeah.

Finn: I– I– I think I understand.

Steffy: Yeah, we all do. And you made it. You fought your way back to us and I know it seemed impossible, but… you’re coming home.

Eric: Well, I had a lot of help. Finn. You saved my life.

Steffy: Granddad, it was you. If you didn’t fight, it would be a very different outcome right now.

Eric: Yeah.

Finn: You had an incredibly difficult procedure and it’s been emotional and– and difficult. And it’s gonna continue to– to not be easy, but–

Eric: I can do it. I– I didn’t think I could get this far. I didn’t think I had the stamina or the strength, but I– I had all of you cheering me on, yeah. I’m gonna go home, I’m gonna feel the sun on my face. And the, uh, the breeze coming up from the ocean, from the coast, on my face. Yeah. And hearing the good grandkids laughing around the pool and seeing that– that big old, wonderful house. And my big old, wonderful family around me. I’m– I’m so blessed. I love you so much. Tomorrow.

R.J.: It’s tomorrow. Going home tomorrow.

Eric: Yeah, going home tomorrow.

Thomas: I was there that night. I was on Mulholland, following Emma’s car.

Hope: Yeah, because she was on her way to see me. To tell me that Beth was alive.

Thomas: Yeah. But what Xander accused me of, I didn’t drive Emma off the road, Hope. I’m not a murderer. I tried to stop her and I did not want her to die. I have been completely open and honest with you. And now, you know everything. So please, tell me we can still have a future together. ♪♪♪

Luna: I’m still smiling after seeing Eric. I’m so happy we got to visit him.

R.J.: Yeah. Me too. I, uh, I told him we were gonna go back and see him later tonight. You’re not the only one who’s still smiling ’cause I heard all those nice things you said about me to granddad. They were very cute.

Luna: I was supposed to be playing it cool.

R.J.: Yeah, too late. You are very into me and I’m into you.

Brooke: Ooh. Oh, R.J. Uh, I– I– I didn’t realize that you were in here. So, uh, just, uh, I’ll be back. Carry on.

R.J.: Okay.

Luna: Uh, well, that wasn’t embarrassing at all.

R.J.: This is what I’ve been saying, okay? I– I need to get my own place. Right? Like– like today.

Ridge: Dad’s getting better every day.

Carter: Yeah, what a relief. I’m thrilled for Eric. Well, for all of you really.

Ridge: Means a lot how much you care about him.

Carter: Of course I care about him. You’re like family to me.

Ridge: Like family? No, we are a family. Come here.

Carter: Thanks, man.

Brooke: Oh, now you two? I keep interrupting everybody tonight. ♪♪♪

Luna: Yeah, I mean, you’ve been mentioning for a while, how much you want your own place.

R.J.: Yeah, it’s– it’s… You know, it’s not that I don’t enjoy living with my parents. It’s just it was only meant to be temporary.

Luna: Yeah, well, I know they enjoy having you around.

R.J.: Well… I mean– I mean, that’s the thing, you know, ’cause… when I got back things were a little, like, rocky between them, you know? Like with my dad moving back in and, you know, it– it just felt right, like it felt healing for– for my family.

Luna: Yeah.

R.J.: Yeah. You know, now everything is better and maybe, uh, it’d be nice to have a little bit of privacy.

Luna: Yes, it would be.

Brooke: So, I walked in on R.J. and Luna kissing. I felt terrible.

Ridge: Well, I’m sure our son was equally mortified.

Brooke: I just hope I handled it the right way. I don’t want them to feel embarrassed.

Carter: Well their relationship isn’t exactly on the low. I mean, everyone in this building knows how they feel about each other.

Brooke: Well, that’s true. And it is cute how smitten he is with her. And she does seem to be a nice, wonderful, very talented young lady.

Ridge: Well, that’s fantastic. That’s exactly what we need, right? Another office romance including one of my kids.

Brooke: Uh, yeah.

Thomas: Say something, Hope.

Hope: I’m– I’m not really sure what to say.

Thomas: I know it’s a lot to digest but now you have the whole story. Look, there are no more secrets between us.

Hope: I appreciate you being honest about what happened that night. But…

Thomas: Hope, I love you and I want to marry you. And I don’t want the past to affect where we are right now.

Hope: I just– I’m going to need some time.

Thomas: I understand.

Hope: But I also don’t want you to lose sight of the fact that I– I know the man that you’ve become.

Thomas: Thank you. As long as you have my ring on your chain, I… still have hope.

Hope: I can’t give you any promises about what the future may hold. Thomas, I just– I just need… I need time to make sense of everything that you have just told me. ♪♪♪

Carter: I’d say you both know a thing or two about office romance.

Ridge: I think we’ve all dabbled a little, Carter.

Carter: Touché, touché. But you two, you’re the king and queen.

Ridge: I am the king. And there’s my queen. Hi. Brooke Hm. Yes.

Brooke: But we can’t compare ourselves to Hope and Thomas. You know that, right? That was a different situation. We’re very different people.

Carter: I feel like you two are about to debate– I mean, have a… discussion about this.

Ridge: Yeah, we just– we don’t see eye to eye when it comes to our kids.

Carter: Right. And that’s my cue to leave.

Ridge: You don’t want to hear about parenting stuff?

Carter: No, I think I’m fine.

Ridge: You should have kids. Parenting never ends, Carter. It never ends.

Brooke: Oh, God.

Brooke: Okay, I– I don’t want to debate about our kids once again. Okay?

Ridge: Okay, so what do you want to do? Maybe make out a little? Show this room how it’s done?

Brooke: Yeah, we could… do a little of that.

Ridge: A little of that?

Brooke: Yeah.

Ridge: Good. ♪♪♪

R.J.: You know, even when I do move out of my parents’ house, I’m still gonna see them all the time.

Luna: Yeah, for sure. And you all get to see each other here at work every day. Which is amazing.

R.J.: Yeah, it’s the best. You know, moving back to L.A. was one of the smartest decisions I ever made. I wouldn’t change a thing. But I do have a new priority. And that’s getting even closer to you.

Carter: Hey, R.J., man, I– Ooh.

R.J.: Hey. Twice in one day. That’s twice. That’s two times.

Carter: My bad, man. Your mom just told me about the first time.

R.J.: Really? Oh, she’s– she’s going around telling people.

Luna: That is just beyond embarrassing.

Carter: I’m just dropping off Eric’s numbers, okay? And– and hey, a little tip: next time, lock the door.

R.J.: Ah. ♪♪♪

Ridge: No, gracias. He’s– he’s doing a lot better. He’s getting better every day and hopefully he’ll be out of the hospital soon. That’s exactly what that means. We will see you in Milan in the spring. He– I– I will certainly tell him that. Listen, uh, Domenico, I gotta run and I will talk to you very soon. All right? Oh, me too. Ok, bye. Ciao.

Thomas: The Domenico, Domenico?

Ridge: Yeah, he was just checking on your granddad.

Thomas: Yeah, I look, I– I didn’t mean for you to get off the phone on my account.

Ridge: Just wrapping it up.

Thomas: Well, how is Granddad coming along?

Ridge: He’s– he’s getting better all the time. What’s going on with you? You walked in here, you had the weight of the world on your shoulders, what’s up?

Thomas: Yeah, I just, um… I was just talking to Hope and– And I– I– I feel like I– I just screwed it all up. ♪♪♪

Brooke: Hi, sweetheart. I’m sorry to stop by unannounced. But I saw that the lights were still on and I thought I’d come down and say good night to the kiddies.

Hope: They are actually not here right now, they’re with Katie.

Brooke: Oh, sorry I missed them. Well, I guess that would explain the flowers and the candles, and the wine. That’s quite the romantic setup. For Thomas? It’s still quite early. So, is Thomas here in the other room? Am I intruding?

Hope: No. No, it’s, uh, it’s fine. Actually, he’s– he’s, uh, left already.

Brooke: He left? Did you have an argument?

Hope: No, no, we did not have an argument.

Brooke: Honey, you’re my daughter and I know you very well. I can tell when something’s weighing on you. So why don’t you tell me what happened here tonight? Between you and Thomas? ♪♪♪

Luna: This is nice.

R.J.: I’ll just stay right here and never move.

Luna: I’m game. I love the way I feel in your arms.

R.J.: Me too.

Luna: Have you always been this sweet?

R.J.: Let’s just say you bring out the best in me.

Luna: They don’t make ’em like you anymore, R.J. You’re one of a kind.

R.J.: Same goes for you.

Luna: No, for real though. Like every new day I get to spend with you I like you even better than the day before. And the day before that. My feelings for you have just grown stronger. Watching how caring you are with your grandfather and seeing the way you treat the staff here. And the barista at our coffee place. You just have all the qualities I’ve ever wanted in a guy. You’re thoughtful and kind, sensitive.

R.J.: Well.

Luna: And you’re also pretty hot. I’ve never felt this way about anyone before.

R.J.: Neither have I. I feel the exact same way about you. ♪♪♪

Ridge: You all right?

Thomas: Yeah.

Ridge: And Hope?

Thomas: Yeah, she’s, uh, she’s Hope. She’s incredible as always. I keep thinking about her and how amazing she’s been. She’s always been so forgiving of me.

Ridge: Very impressive. She left the past in the past.

Thomas: Yeah, I just hope it continues in that direction.

Ridge: Why wouldn’t it?

Thomas: I don’t know. I– I guess, um… I’m falling more and more in love with her, you know? And I– I just wanna make sure that in– I don’t wanna do anything to mess it up.

Ridge: It sounds like a healthy perspective.

Thomas: Yeah, well, I’m trying to stay positive, you know, give her space.

Ridge: That’s all you can do. You know, keep your head on straight and do what you can and if it lines up then it’s meant to be, right?

Thomas: Sure. Yeah. Yeah. No, that– that helps. Um, you always give good advice. Thank you. I love you, you’re my son. And I love who you’ve become. You… I’m proud of you.

Thomas: That means a lot, especially coming from you. And talking about this. I know that– I know my relationship with Hope has… always been a little bit of a shock. Right?

Ridge: Shock or not, listen… if you’re happy, I’m happy.

Thomas: Wow. I mean, look, you– you might be the only one who feels that way ’cause it feels like, uh, I don’t know, everyone has something against our relationship, especially Brooke.

Brooke: Honey, I can’t help but be concerned. Did something happen? Did Thomas do something to you?

Hope: No, Mom. Nothing– nothing happened to me. Okay? Thomas loves me.

Brooke: Then why isn’t he here? I mean, obviously you set up this really nice, romantic evening for the two of you. What’s going on? What happened tonight?

Hope: We– we uh, had a… difficult conversation about some of the things in his past.

Brooke: Oh, yes. We are all very familiar with that time. It traumatized all of us, most importantly, you. But Thomas did say that he’s been improving and working on himself and… he’s a changed man. We all would really love to believe that.

Hope: I do. I believe him.

Brooke: But you can’t feel that comfortable with what happened in the past. I mean, I’m sure it would be very difficult for you to commit yourself to him.

R.J.: I can’t stop kissing you. You know, I think about you day and night. Especially at night, when I’m alone in my bed. Wishing you were there.

Luna: I think about you the same way.

R.J.: You do?

Luna: We need to be alone together. Please get a place of your own, soon.

Ridge: Well, don’t worry about Brooke. She’s just being a protective mother.

Thomas: You always say that.

Ridge: I always say that because it’s true. She’s not trying to sabotage your relationship. Right?

Thomas: Brooke is entitled to her opinion. Sure. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. But I don’t really care about anyone else’s opinion. All I care about is Hope’s opinion. Right? I– I want her to know how committed I am to her and how much she can trust me.

Ridge: And… she’s on board with that. I mean, she’s forgiven you. Right?

Thomas: She’s– she’s trying, you know, but– but she’s not going to forget everything from the past. Right? That’s impossible.

Ridge: Right, but she also knows how much work you’ve put in and she realizes that.

Thomas: Yeah. Look, I would– I would do anything for Hope.

Ridge: That’s how I feel about Brooke. It sounds like it’s real.

Thomas: Yeah. You know, I– I feel like I’ve shown her the kind of love that she deserves. I’ve– I’ve told the truth about every mistake I’ve ever made. I’ve– I’ve let her know that, well, she has all the cards. Right? I put them all on the table. And she’s the only woman for me. There’d never be anybody else. I think I can give her the life she deserves.

Brooke: Well, it seems like you’ve developed feelings for Thomas. I won’t fight you on that, but I’m sure it’s gonna be hard for you to move past that chapter in your life. One that Thomas was a very big part of. So it would be best for you to… end it with him now.

Hope: I know you mean well, Mom. But I don’t intend on doing that.

Brooke: Honey, I want you to consider what’s best for you, what’s best for the children.

Hope: I have. And yes, Thomas has– he has made mistakes. He has done some regrettable things and he acknowledges that. But I mean, we haven’t we all messed up? I mean, I’m– I’m not perfect. None of us are. And Lord knows I’m the queen of giving people nd, rd and th, th chances. But what makes this different, Mom, is that it’s not just empty words and platitudes. He’s done the work. And so I’m not just hoping that maybe he’s going to transform. I know he has. He’s backed it up with action.

Brooke: Oh, okay. Um, you’re acting a little strange. I mean, you’re not really yourself right now, honey. You’re very uneasy. And if you don’t want to tell me what’s going on. That’s okay. I just want you to trust your instincts. If there’s anything that you doubt about Thomas, anything at all, please…

Hope: I don’t doubt Thomas. I think– I think he is an exceptional designer. I think he has stepped up and proven himself as a father. And, Mom… He loves me unconditionally. Which is all I have ever hoped for. So I know you hate to hear that, but at some point, Mom, you are going to have to stop fighting this, please. Is there any part of you that can learn to accept Thomas and me? Because who knows… what our future might– might be? ♪♪♪

[Dramatic Music]

Hope: I read everything I could find about Emma’s accident and the police said that there were no witnesses. And you’re telling me that you were there? You saw Emma’s car go off the road and you said nothing.

Thomas: She was driving so fast.

Hope: You were following her!

Thomas: And we were both trying to get to you. To this day, I am still horrified about that night

Hope: All this time.

Thomas: I have been trying to get it out of my mind.

Hope: So what so many people suspected of you… you’re actually admitting is true? That you were on Mulholland the night that Emma died.

Steffy: I love how protective you are, but my brother isn’t the threat you think he is.

Finn: Look, I can’t just ignore what Xander told me. He seems sure.

Steffy: That doesn’t make it true, Finn.

Finn: So you’re just really not concerned that Thomas could be responsible for Emma’s death?

Steffy: No, because the police already looked into it. It was an accident, a terrible accident. Finn, listen to me. Dredging this all up, it isn’t helping. I know my brother has changed. He’s learned from his mistakes. Finn, I promise you, Thomas isn’t a danger to anyone. You need to believe me.

Finn: I hear you, all right? Thomas is your big brother. You’ve spent years looking up to him.

Steffy: In a way, his mistakes hurt me more than anyone.

Finn: Well, maybe he hurt someone else a lot more. Look– look, Steffy, I’m sorry, okay? I’m sorry. I can see the stress that this is causing you.

Steffy: No, I understand that you have questions. I get that you’re concerned. Xander just shows up here. He’s a new patient and he starts spewing all these accusations against my brother. I get it.

Finn: But that’s just the thing. It wasn’t really like that. I mean, I had to pull the story out of him.

Steffy: It doesn’t make it true. There’s no proof of what Xander’s been saying.

Finn: I understand that, but it’s the way Xander reacted, okay? Just saying your brother’s name. It wasn’t like he was putting me on. He truly believes Thomas is– is dangerous.

Steffy: Well, he’s not. Xander is wrong. Don’t listen to him. Listen to me, your wife.

Thomas: I’m so ashamed. I wish I’d come forward sooner. I hated keeping this from you. I wanted to say something so many times and you were so proud of me. Encouraging and supportive. It terrified me this would set us back, make you question everything. And it doesn’t change anything, you know. It– Emma still died because of an accident. But holding it in and holding it back from you, not sharing everything with each other… Yes, I was on Mulholland that night. I was there. I saw Emma’s car go right off the road. All of that is true. But Xander is wrong, Hope. I’m not a murderer. You know me. You have to believe me.

Finn: Look, I want to believe you. I don’t want to believe that Thomas might be capable of murder.

Steffy: He is not. Xander and Emma were close. He was deeply affected by her death. So he wanted to point the finger at someone.

Finn: He told me Thomas threatened him.

Steffy: Thomas has done some very dark things in the past. You know that. And Thomas would be the first person to admit that, But hiding something as disgusting, as gruesome, like a crime? He wouldn’t do that. He’s worked so hard on himself. All this healing. He’s become a better father and Xander doesn’t know any of that because he hasn’t seen it. He’s basing this all on the man he used to be. And even at Thomas’s worst, he wouldn’t be homicidal.

Finn: He was desperate though. All he cared about was getting close to Hope. And if he thought Emma was gonna expose him, come between them? I’m just saying, I know how he is, Steffy. Even recently, when I told him that Hope and him should never be together.

Steffy: Was Thomas ever violent with you?

Finn: No.

Steffy: Did you ever feel as though, I don’t know, you were in danger?

Finn: No.

Steffy: Then what does that tell you? I don’t understand why you’re not trusting your instincts or trusting your wife. And I don’t know why you’re trying to open this wound. Yes, I am very protective and I will do anything to protect my family, but I’m not giving Thomas the benefit of the doubt because he is my brother. I’ve seen that he’s changed and I’m putting my faith in him just like you should put your faith in me.

Finn: Okay. Come here. Look, honey… Honey, I love you, okay? You and the kids are my entire world. And if… Look, if you need me to let this go, I– I– I will.

Steffy: So, you’ll drop it?

Finn: Well, if this is causing you this much stress? Yeah. Okay. I can let it go.

Steffy: Oh, my God.

Finn: Yeah.

Hope: Why are you telling me this now? Hm? Is it because Xander’s back? Thomas He started up. He got Finn involved, but I’m here because I want a life with you. And there can’t be any secrets between us.

Hope: Tell me again. How it happened. I need to hear you say it again.

Thomas: Emma and I argued at the office. What are you talking about? She demanded that I tell you about Beth. Take a breath.

Emma: I can’t calm down. I just overheard–

Thomas: I tried to reason with her. I tried to make her see what that would do to Steffy.

Emma: Shouldn’t Steffy know the truth?

Thomas: My sister loved that baby girl so much. I just needed more time, but she wouldn’t listen.

Emma: There’s nothing you cn do to stop me, out of my way.

Thomas: No.

Emma: Move, now!

Thomas: You’re not going anywhere. She was gonna find you. She was gonna tell you everything and I tried to stop her. But she jumped in her car and she tore off. I thought I could get her to pull over. She was just driving so fast. She must have been, I don’t know, trying to call you or– or– or text you or something. I– I honked, I tried to get her to slow down, but she just went faster. And then I saw her head go down. She must have been reaching for something. And that’s when she lost control. She missed the turn, crashed through the guardrail. Where she went over, no one would have survived. I still have nightmares about it. I– I hear swerving and the brakes. And then not being able to do anything. I’m haunted by it. But I did not run her off the road. Hope, I swear to you. I was there, but I didn’t kill Emma.

Steffy: Look, I know you’re just trying to do the right thing.

Finn: Well, the right thing is for us to stay unified.

Steffy: Yeah. But it is okay if we disagree and we have different opinions.

Finn: Well, you’re my wife and Thomas is your brother. I respect that.

Steffy: I just wish you two could get along.

Finn: Look, I want to get back to that.

Steffy: Yeah, but if you have doubts about Thomas Or you’re troubled by what Xander said, then I don’t know where to go from there.

Finn: Look, what I need to remember and what I can’t forget is how much I love you and how much I missed you and the kids when you were gone. All those nights, I would lay awake just wishing that you would come home. I promised myself that I would never let anything come between us again. So, if you don’t want me to pursue this, I won’t.

Steffy: Well I’m really happy to hear that. We just have so many things going on. Everything we’ve been through. Sheila, our time apart, my grandfather, and now Hope and Thomas are in a relationship.

Finn: Look, there’s been enough turmoil. You’re right. The last thing we need is to go looking for more.

Steffy: Especially when everything’s finally starting to turn around.

Finn: I agree. All I want is a loving, supporting, peaceful family. Your brother included.

Steffy: Okay.

Thomas: When I think back, it’s like I’m remembering someone else. A stranger who did all those misguided things. He did it because he loved you in a messed up way and he wanted to spend his life with you. But I’ve done a since then, thanks to you. Your understanding, your support. I’ve changed my ways completely. When I look back, it’s like I see that man clearly, his selfishness and obsession, but that doesn’t exist anymore and he’s never coming back. Now, did I lie? Did I withhold the truth? I handled that night and pretty much everything at that time all wrong? Yes. I should have told you what happened with Beth. But I was so caught up in my own fear. And I don’t want any more secrets between us. Never again. I don’t want us to ever have to think about that night again. Emma is gone and that is the real tragedy. But can’t we just focus on our own life and our future together?

Hope: I, uh… I have to think about this.

Thomas: Nothing has to change.

Hope: You chased Emma, Thomas. You were on Mulholland that night. You saw her go off the road. She was my friend. She died trying to get to me. Trying to tell me the truth about my daughter, about Beth. Do I believe you’re telling the truth, Thomas? Yes. I do believe you.

Thomas: Thank you.

Steffy: You really would do anything for me.

Finn: No question.

Steffy: How did I get so lucky?

Finn: It’s never been luck for us. It’s loyalty, commitment, trust.

Steffy: Passion?

Finn: We got plenty of that.

Steffy: I think we could use a little more.

Finn: Oh, is that a complaint?

Steffy: No, it’s a proposition.

Finn: I know. What do you have in mind?

Steffy: We can get someone to watch the kids and I’m gonna keep you in bed until the sun comes up.

Finn: Well, my schedule just completely freed up.

Steffy: I am so grateful for you. I really am.

Thomas: I’m sorry, Hope. I hate bringing up these terrible memories. They’re painful for me too. I didn’t want Emma to die. I tried to stop her. You’re disappointed in me. I am too. I did love you then, but it was a messed up flawed kind of love. I was confused. But what I feel for you today is way different. It’s pure and it’s healthy.

Hope: Thomas… We can talk about that another time.

Thomas: Look, I’m not asking you to accept the person I was, but please believe in who I am now. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you, Hope I just want to put that horrible night behind us. I promise I am committed to being the upstanding man that you deserve. Someone you can truly love. You’ve changed me from the man who did all of those terrible things years ago to someone that maybe you’re capable of loving, who’s capable of honoring you and loving you. I wanna be a good father. I wanna be a good husband someday. The best designer for your line and the right man for you. No more secrets, Hope. I told you everything. I swear it’s the truth. And if you can’t forgive me, just tell me you believe that I’m a different man now. A better man, better than I was before. Tell me you know I’ve changed. It may have taken me a really long time to mature and find confidence, but I have. To find true love. It’s all because of you. It’s not obsession, not like it was. I swear. I just love you. I love you so much. I want the world to recognize who we are today and what we can be, moving forward. I want to prove how good I can be. Now, and every single day in the future. You’re wearing that engagement ring around your necklace. That ring represents who I am today and the life that I want to share with you, forever. Please don’t give up on me. Don’t give up on us.

Liam: Hope, I know you don’t like hearing this, especially not from me, but you are not safe with thomas. Not emotionally and not physically.

Hope: Liam.

Liam: Okay. What if– what if you say something and it triggers his dark side again? Do you ever think about that? What if he runs you off a cliff too?

Hope: Thomas had nothing to do with emma’s death.

Liam: All I’m saying is you should give that ring back and you could be– listen. You can’t possibly… what, are you gonna marry him?

Hope: That’s not really up to you.

Liam: Okay. Okay. This is me just looking out for you because none of this bodes well. Xander back in town, the emma thing being dredged up again and you know what it’s doing? It’s making me even more worried about you.

Steffy: You said xander was right about something. What is it?

Thomas: It was a tragedy, steff. And what happened to emma, it still weighs on me but I’m not responsible. I didn’t kill her, steff.

Eric: So? What’s the verdict, doc?

Finn: I’m happy to say you’re making excellent progress.

Eric: Thanks for taking such good care of me.

Liam: Well, your family would have come after me with pitchforks if I hadn’t with steffy leading the charge. They love you so much.

Rj: I can vouch for that. Hey.

Eric: Rj.

Rj: Hey.

Eric: And the beautiful luna. What a treat.

Rj: No. Hey, having you here with us, getting stronger every single day. That’s the treat, granddad.

Finn: It’s always a nice surprise to see my cousin, especially when you’re smiling like that.

Luna: Yeah, well, I got lots to smile about.

Finn: Have a nice visit, okay? And can you try to have him take it easy?

Rj: Have– have him take it easy? Do you know who you’re talking about, dude? Come on.

Eric: Finn. Finn. I’m very grateful.

Rj: Hey, yeah. From– from me to you, dude, thank you. Seriously, you’re– you’re a miracle worker. Steffy’s definitely lucky to have you, man.

Thomas: I’m not gonna let xander keep spreading these lies and please tell finn to stop listening to him. It’s no secret. I wasn’t a saint back then, but I’m not responsible.

Steffy: I know.

Thomas: I need hope to know too. But thank you so much for always having faith in me. It means the world.

Steffy: Of course.

Thomas: Yeah.

Steffy: Of course.

Hope: Thomas is not a murderer and xander shouldn’t be running around town saying that he is.

Liam: Well, he should, if it’s true.

Hope: It isn’T. Liam, I– I get that you’re, I don’t know, trying to look out for me here, but it’s not necessary, okay? I know thomas. I know the man he really is.

Liam: Who’s the man he really is? Who’s the man thomas really is? Is it a man that you love? Do you love him, hope? So I didn’t think I needed swiffer,

Eric: It’s good– it’s good to see you, both of you. Thanks for– thanks for stopping by.

Luna: Of course. And we did not come empty-handed.

Eric: Luna, the guardian of the stapler.

Luna: Well, it’s a little reminder of what’s waiting for you when you get out of here.

Eric: Good that it did not get tossed or… or forgotten.

Rj: Neither have you, granddad.

Hope: I’m going to tell you what I told steffy and ridge and my mom and everyone else who asks: My feelings for thomas are private. And they’re not up for discussion, especially not with someone who is so openly against our relationship.

Liam: Okay, I know that look. Anything else I say, you’re just gonna dig in deeper. So promise me this, promise me that you’re gonna keep your guard up, okay? You’re not gonna get blindsided by whatever the next round of thomas’s dark secrets is, okay? Because hope, I am telling you they are out there and they are coming.

Steffy: So, how’s granddad?

Finn: I was just checking on him. He’s– he’s doing really well. I– I’m so pleased.

Steffy: That’s such a relief to hear.

Finn: Yeah, well, for me too. Uh, luna and rj are with him.

Steffy: That’s good. They lift him up. I think it’s all the youthful energy and love. So, um, I spoke to thomas like you asked.

Finn: Did he say anything more about emma? Or, let me guess. Thomas just denied, denied, denied

[ Knocking on door ]

Hope: Come in.

Thomas: Hey. Uh, wow. The– the– this place looks amazing.

Hope: You like?

Thomas: Yes. Yes. Mm. I like that even more.

Hope: Um, okay. So…

Thomas: Hold on. I- I just– I need a second. You did this all for me?

Hope: Well, don’t forget about little old me. I intend to reap the benefits of this as well. So, here’s what I’m thinking. We have the night to ourselves. The kids are with katie. We can order in and we can continue collaborating.

Thomas: Oh, I like the sound of that.

Hope: Thought you might. So, would you like to start with a glass of red?

Thomas: Uh, um, actually, I’m– I’m okay.

Hope: Ooh. Okay. Something wrong? You seem a little off?

Thomas: Yeah, look, um, finn confronted steffy in an attempt to try and get her to talk to me about the night that emma died.

Hope: Well, I– I’d really rather not revisit that, so…

Thomas: Yeah. And I– I totally understand, but I’m actually, um, I’m a little relieved that it’s coming up again.

Hope: Why?

Thomas: I think it’s caused a little bit of a barrier between us.

Hope: Okay so what are you trying to tell me, thomas?

Thomas: I love you so much. And I don’t want there to be anything between us, so I want to tell you everything about that night, hope. Aah, it’s a good day to cough.

Eric: Luna. I sent rj away to get water for me so I can have some time alone with you, okay?

Luna: That’s sneaky. What did you, um, what did you want to talk about?

Eric: You and rj. He’s crazy about you.

Luna: Yeah, he may have mentioned it once or twice.

Eric: He’s a smart man. You’re very special.

Luna: Thank you. Your support means everything to us.

Eric: I approve.

Luna: Yeah, I, um, I’ve– I’ve never felt this way about anyone before. Yeah. It’s a surprise. I– when I first moved to L.A., It was for my career. I mean, getting a job at forrester creations? It was like an absolute dream for me and– and that would have been enough. But, um, I– I got really lucky and I met rj and he’s added so much to my life. Fun, friendship, laughter, creativity. The chance to work with you. The biggest one, the one that I was never expecting is– is love.

Eric: Perfect timing.

Luna: Did– did you hear all of that just now?

Rj: Yeah, I did and I’m glad I did.

Luna: Good, because I meant every word.

Steffy: Of course, thomas denied his involvement in emma’s death. He is incapable of murder.

Finn: Well, I wish I were as confident as you.

Steffy: I wish you were too. And maybe you would be if you’d take the time to get to know him better.

Finn: I know him plenty.

Steffy: Yes, thomas has made mistakes in the past. I’m not condoning them. He has done some terrible things, but murder?

Finn: He’s gone to some pretty dark places before.

Steffy: You’re making thomas out to be some kind of monster. He’s not, finn. Look, he didn’t do what xander is accusing him of. You’ve got to trust me on this. I know thomas better than anyone. You need to let this go.

Hope: I thought I already knew everything that happened that night.

Thomas: Not all of it.

Hope: I mean, it still haunts me. The fact that emma lost her life driving to see me to try to tell me that beth was alive.

Thomas: Well, you don’t feel any guilt, do you? Because nothing could be further from the truth.

Hope: Well, that’s what I think about when I let myself go there. And what about you? The police cleared you in the investigation. They said that it was distracted driving that led to emma’s death, and yet, you are telling me that there is more to the story now.

Thomas: That was one of the darkest times of my entire life. I’m not that person. I’ll never be that person again and you believe that, right?

Hope: I’m going to be honest. You telling me that there’s a part of that evening that you have kept to yourself all this time, I mean, that is– that is making me nervous, thomas. So, I am going to need you to tell me everything. I need the whole truth. (Avo) kate made progress with her mental health…

Eric: You two… make my heart warm.

Luna: I think we all feel the same way.

Rj: We sure do.

Luna: Yeah. What’s your secret anyway?

Rj: Yeah. Yeah. What are the secret? We want to be like you when we grow up.

Eric: You’re asking me for a life lesson?

Rj: Well, who better?

Eric: Life is precious. If love finds you, then… give it all you’ve got.

Steffy: Thomas is far from perfect. I am the first one to admit that. I know he’s done horrible things in the past. He hurt a lot of people, but killing someone? I mean, the thought of that is so absurd. Finn, I don’t want to talk about this. There are so many things that are going on. I’m already stressed out about my grandfather and now this?

Finn: Okay. All right. Look the– the last thing I wanna do is– is upset you.

Steffy: Then drop it. My brother’s not a killer.

Hope: I am, uh, trying to wrap my head around this. Okay, so you proposed to me, thomas. I’m wearing the ring you gave me around my neck and that is something I don’t take lightly.

Thomas: Neither do I.

Hope: Okay. So then, if– if you want us to have any chance of a future together, I am going to need you to be completely honest with me.

Thomas: That’s exactly what I want too. And this is a very sad thing to talk about, but this is why I’m thankful we’re finally talking about it. I need to tell you everything about that night, hope. Emma and I had a confrontation. She wanted to go to you and tell you about your baby and I wanted to stop her. And I went after her, which is no secret. I mean, xander pulled the security footage. It showed me leaving forrester. That’s when the accusations started flying, that I ran her off a cliff. But there was no proof. So xander went to try and get the gps location to show I was there at the accident site, but when the cops followed up, I had already erased it. I knew with everyone knowing about what had happened, me keeping the secret about beth, what they would think if I was there that night.

Hope: So, you were there? So, liam and xander and their assumptions about you somehow being involved… are…

Thomas: Yeah. I, uh, I chased after her and we were both driving very fast. And you know how at night time, mulholland can get very, very dangerous, especially if you’re driving fast. That’s when it happened. She went off the road, down into that canyon. I saw it. But I didn’t cause it, hope. I didn’t kill her.

Hope: Did you try to help?

Thomas: No one could have survived that. No one could survive that crash. I– I should have told you the truth about beth and I never meant to hurt her or you or… I never meant for emma to die. That’s the truth about that night, hope. It’s not like xander said. I’m not a murderer. And hope, I… please tell me you can forgive me, please.

Finn: So then, you’ll do it then? You’ll talk to your brother?

Steffy: If that’s what it takes to finally put this to rest, then…

Finn: Okay. Well, hopefully it will, but… only if your brother’s honest with you.

Steffy: I thought he was honest with me. Just wish you thought that too.

Finn: You know that I’m not trying to make trouble for thomas. You do know that, right?

Steffy: None of this would’ve started if you hadn’t spoken to xander.

Finn: Yeah. Well, I have, okay? And he’s come to me twice now. He’s having the same accusations against your brother.

>>. Steffy: Well, it’s not true.

Finn: I know how much that you want to believe that. And for thomas’ sake, I hope it isn’T. But there are still a lot of unanswered questions, babe. Questions only your brother knows the answers to.

Steffy: I told you I– I would talk to him, okay?

Finn: Okay. You just be direct. Ask him point blank if he had any hand in emma’s death.

Thomas: I could do this all day.

Hope: Me too.

Thomas: Unfortunately, I have work to do.

[ Hope sighs ]

Hope: Oh…

Thomas: Well… yeah, I gotta finish this design and then show it to you so that you can give me pointers.

[ Thomas laughs ]

Hope: You know, actually, I think, uh, I might have a better idea.

Thomas: Yeah?

Hope: Mm-hmm. What if, uh, you came and met me later at my cabin after you finish, and we could do some more collaborating then?

Thomas: I love collaborating.

Hope: I thought you might like that.

Thomas: You know what else I love? I love that you have always seen the good inside of me. You’ve seen the person that i was, and you helped me turn into the person that I am now. You helped me grow so much. Grow into a person that feels worthy of someone as amazing as you. Still hoping for a future. I’ll never stop hoping. Steffy: Finn, my brother was cleared of any suspicions in emma’s death.

Finn: I’m aware.

Steffy: He answered all of the questions, and the police were satisfied with his answers.

Finn: So, we should be too? Like I should be satisfied?

Steffy: We wouldn’t even be having this conversation if xander hadn’t dredged all of this up.

Finn: Well, the point is, he has and we can’t just ignore it. Are you gonna see him? Right now?

[ Steffy scoffs ]

Steffy: Fine. Yeah, I– I’ll talk to him. I just think it’s a waste of time. I already know everything.

Finn: Well, maybe, but it’s also possible that he’s holding something back, all right? Something that he’s never shared before for whatever reason.

Steffy: He didn’t harm emma. She didn’t die because of anything my brother did.

[ Steffy sighs ]

Li: I saw steffy leaving. She didn’t look happy. What’s going on, finn? Were you arguing?

Finn: Arguing, no. Disagreeing, yes.

Li: About what?

Finn: Steffy’s brother, thomas.

Thomas: Please say you’ll marry me.

Hope: I’m just– I’m not ready yet for this, thomas. I hope you understand.

Thomas: Until you’re ready to put this ring on your finger, just keep it here where it belongs, right next to your heart.

Finn: But given the things thomas has done in the past, when xander accuses thomas of murder? Now, do you understand why I’m so concerned about you?

[ Door opens ]

Hope: Uh-huh. Hi, liam. What are you doing here?

Liam: Interrupting, apparently. Hey, at least you’re not in lingerie. Thomas on his way over? Hope?

Hope: Don’t do that. Don’T.

Liam: Okay.

Hope: What do you want?

Liam: I’m just– you seem distracted and, um, you know, contrary to popular opinion, I do still care about you and you can talk to me, so what’s going on?

Hope: I don’t even know if I should be telling you this, but, uh, I have two words for you. Xander avant.

Liam: Xander… hm. What about him?

Hope: He’s back in town.

Liam: And making thomas’s life hell, no doubt.

Finn: I’m not trying to stir up trouble in my marriage, but I just– I can’t look the other way either.

Li: You’re that concerned about thomas? Doubts you’re not willing to brush away?

Finn: I can’T. It just– it wouldn’t be fair.

Li: Fair to whom? Steffy? Thomas? Someone else you’re not mentioning?

Finn: No, actually, I’m thinking of hope.

Li: Hope?

Finn: You know thomas and hope are a couple, right?

Li: Well, yes. Her marriage to liam ended because of it. At least, that’s my understanding.

>Finn: Well, there are other factors too. Though it– it still baffles me.

Li: What does?

Finn: How hope could be involved with thomas after everything he did years ago.

Liam: Hey, so I know you, uh, don’t wanna hear this, but it’s not exactly easy to blame xander, right? I mean, thomas is the guy who had us convinced our daughter was dead for month after month after month. I mean, it’s not shocking that someone might also think he had something to do with emma’s death.

Hope: Okay, that is a pretty serious accusation to be throwing about, liam. Thomas was cleared. They dropped the investigation. Okay? And– and that thomas that you’re talking about from back then, that’s the old him.

Liam: Right. I forget that. Yeah, the two thomases. I keep forgetting. The old one, the new one, the good one, the bad one. You’ll forgive me if I have a little bit of trouble believing. What is that? Is that an engagement ring?

Steffy: Thanks for seeing me.

Thomas: Yeah, no, it sounded important, but I don’t have much time.

Steffy: Somewhere you need to be?

Thomas: Yeah, I’m meeting hope at the cabin.

Steffy: Hope can wait. This can’T.

Thomas: What’s on your mind, steff?

Steffy: I just came from seeing finn.

Thomas: Good. Hopefully, you were able to convince him to, you know, stop hanging out with xander and stuff.

Steffy: Yeah, yeah, a little late for that.

Thomas: A little late for what?

Steffy: Xander showed up at finn’s office again. He still says that you’re responsible for emma’s death. Attention medicare beneficiaries

Li: Word of advice from your mother. Don’t get too caught up in being hope’s protector. There is a complex history between her and your wife. You don’t want to inadvertently–

Finn: Look, mom, I hear you, okay? But that’s not what this is about.

Li: It’s not? You sure?

Finn: Yes, I’m sure. I mean, yes, of course, I want hope to be safe and happy, but my family is my first priority. Nothing will ever come before them.

Li: As it should be.

Finn: Believe me, I know how lucky I am to be married to steffy, to raise our children with her. I would never do anything to hurt what we have together.

Li: Still, this thing with thomas, whatever it is, if it’s causing tension–

Finn: Not in the way that you think it is. It’s just– look, steffy thinks that her brother has changed and grown, and thomas says that he has changed and grown for the better.

Li: But you’re not convinced.

Finn: Look, I would love nothing more than to tell my wife that she’s right. That her brother is who she thinks he is. But thomas has a checkered past. He has done harmful, hurtful things and I will always be wary of thomas until proven otherwise.

Liam: So, thomas proposed, gave you a ring.

Hope: Yes–

Liam: Only that ring is not where rings go. That ring is on a chain around your neck. Why?

Hope: It’s really none of your business.

Liam: Hey, no matter the status of our relationship, I still care about you and you can still confide in me. So, when did this happen?

Hope: Not long ago.

Liam: Not long ago? Anybody else know? They don’t, do they?

Hope: Okay, I am not discussing this with you anymore, all right?

Liam: Oh, you couldn’t do it. You couldn’t do it. You couldn’t say “yes.”

Hope: Not yet.

Liam: Honestly, between you and me, that thing shouldn’t even be on a chain, much less your finger.

Hope: Hm. That’s not exactly up to you, is it?

Liam: No, clearly not. Clearly not. All I can do is keep the old fingers crossed that one day, somehow, you’ll come to realize how much this relationship with thomas is costing you and get out of it before he hurts you again.

Steffy: I realize how frustrating this is for you. That night on mulholland is rearing its ugly head again.

Thomas: Yes, because xander, for some reason, couldn’t just stay away.

Steffy: Well, he’s back here now, thomas, and he’s making waves.

Thomas: Yeah, he’s definitely got your husband sucked in. I wonder if he’s gonna convince you.

Steffy: What? He’s not gonna do that. Look, I– I support you, I do. Look, what happened to emma, it was an accident. I don’t know why finn keeps pointing the finger at you.

Thomas: Finn blames me for what happened.

Steffy: He has questions. Questions that xander put in his head. I told him not to go there.

Thomas: Right, but he won’t let it go, steff.

Steffy: I– well, finn asked me to come here and… he wanted me to ask you one more time if you knew anything about emma’s death. Xander has these accusations. Are any of them true?

Thomas: He’s right about one thing.

>>Liam: I swear, hope, I would never judge you. I– I– I never have, I never would. I just– you know, just– just think about how many people thomas has hurt. Think about how much he’s hurt you.

Hope: Oh, gosh. Um, hate to break it to you, uh, but thomas isn’t the only one who’s hurt me. Yeah, I haven’t forgotten about that whole, you know, moment of you running to steffy and acting like what we shared meant absolutely nothing to you. So, um, I may have been naive and trying to be– you know what? No. This is not even worth it because we’ve both moved on, right?

Liam: Yeah. Yeah. No, we’ve– we’ve– we’ve moved on. I just, um, it’s just a shame that you’ve moved on with thomas, especially given that xander’s back in town spitting all this truth, and that’s got to be–

Hope: Okay, what xander is saying isn’t true, liam.

Liam: Well, I don’t know.

Hope: No, while thomas, yes, has done horrible things in the past, things that he has regretted, things that he has taken accountability for, being responsible for emma’s death is not one of them. He’s not capable of that, as much as I know you’re not going to be convinced of that.

Liam: Well, you know, what– let me ask you this– why? Why now? Why is xander here? What’s in it for xander?

Hope: Because he has an axe to grind. He was fired from forrester, liam, and more importantly, he was very close to emma. So, while the investigation cleared thomas, xander needs someone to blame and who better than thomas?

Liam: So– just so I understand, in this parable, thomas is the victim?

Hope: That is not what I am saying. That is not what I am saying.

Liam: Kinda sounds like it.

Hope: You’re just committed to misunderstanding me. No, what happened to emma was an accident, not a crime. And I get that you and finn and– and everyone else has your judgment and has your doubts and are trying to protect me. I don’t want it. I don’t need it. Especially not from thomas and that whole period of my life, that dark chapter that everyone just keeps trying to bring up, I am wanting to move past it. So, can we please not go back there again?

Liam: I just hope that you understand that as long as you’re in a relationship with thomas, you’re never gonna be able to move past emma’s death.

Steffy: Xander was right about something?

Thomas: Yeah.

Steffy: What? Tell me.

Thomas: First, I wanna say how sorry I am about what happened to emma. That she lost her life. The police, they know that she went off the road. They think that she was distracted while driving.

[ Tires squealing, crashing ] The thing that xander has right is that I was a person of interest and I should have been. But I was cleared, and the case was closed. The thing is, is xander won’t let it go. He believes that I intentionally killed emma, and, steffy, I didn’T. I didn’t kill emma, okay? I– I don’t know if she was texting while driving, but no matter what, it was a senseless car accident.

Steffy: Yeah. It– it explains a lot. But not everything. Somehow, the truth needs to come out. All of it, thomas.

Thomas: Yeah, it does. I totally agree.

Liam: Hope, given thomas’s past, don’t you think anything is possible? He knew our little girl was alive. He wanted us to think she was dead and he watched us suffer month after month. If he’s capable of that, I think he’s capable of anything. Even murder.

Nurse: Dr. Finnegan?

Finn: Yeah.

Nurse: I just thought I’d let you know that mr. Forrester’s numbers look good and he’s even cracking jokes.

Finn: That’s– that’s great. Thanks. I appreciate the update.

Nurse: I know how important the forrester family is to you.

Finn: Very important. And eric’s not the only forrester I’m worried about.

[ Steffy sighing ]

Steffy: I feel terrible about what happened to emma. She had her whole life ahead of her. It was a tragic accident. She lost control of her car, finn. She drove off mulholland, she took the turns too quickly. It wasn’t murder. Thomas did not murder her. So, can you please just get that out of your mind?

Hope: Uh, steffy. I got your email and we can definitely make those adjustments. I do think that, uh… um, but you know what? I– we can schedule this for another time.

Steffy: I’m sorry, I just wasn’t, um… what– what were you saying?

Hope: We don’t have to do this right now. You seem a little distracted. It’s okay. We can…

Steffy: No, it’s, uh, I just, um, I’m a little worried is all.

Hope: About thomas?

Steffy: Yeah, I– I’m worried about his past.’S word so hard to put behind him that could potentially drag him down again.

Luna: Oh, so you were at the hospital?

Rj: Yes, I was. I’m sorry, I meant to call you. My bad.

Luna: No worries. Um, how’s eric doing?

Rj: He– he’s good. He’s doing all right. He’s improving, for sure. He made it a point for me to tell you to say hi.

Luna: Oh.

Rj: Yeah. So, what about you? What were you up to?

Rj: So, did you do anything fun last night?

Luna: Actually, um, look, I don’t want to keep any secrets from you.

Rj: Okay.

Luna: I was with zende.

Rj: Like you were like, were you like working late or something?

Luna: No, um, I thought I was having dinner with you, but turns out, it was with zende. No more secret notes pretending to be rj and no more tricking me into a cheap kiss, okay? You’re a great guy. You’ll find someone.

Zende: It’s too bad rj met you first.

Luna: He did and he stole my heart.

Zende: Rj is a very lucky man.

[ Zende sighing ]

Hope: Uh, steffy, you aren’t implying that I’m dragging your brother down, are you?

Steffy: Well, I didn’t say it was only you, hope. Thomas, we were just talking about you.

Thomas: Oh, yeah?

Steffy: Just saying that uh, all the things that you’ve overcome, I’m really, really proud of you. You’ve earned the right to put all the misfortunes and pain behind you.

Thomas: Well, do you think I’ve been doing a good job of that? A lot of that is thanks to hope. You don’t have to worry about our relationship or anything else from the past. I am focused on the future and all the joys to come.

Rj: So, what you’re telling me is that zende sent you a note pretending to be me.

Luna: Well, no, he didn’t sign his name or anything. I’m the one that jumped to conclusions thinking that it was from–

Rj: Well, no, he knew that you’d assume it was me, right? What the hell is wrong with him? Why is he ambushing you like this?

Luna: Try not to be too upset with him. I mean, it seemed innocent enough.

Rj: Enough? What does enough mean? Luna, what happened? Did he come on to you?

Luna: Look, it’s not a big deal, but he did kiss me on the cheek.

Rj: You! Don’t walk out. You’re pathetic.

Zende: Excuse me?

Rj: You just heard what I said. You are pathetic. You can’t find a girl to kiss you, so you have to kiss my girlfriend?

Thomas: It is a shame that steffy had to leave.

Hope: Right. I mean, I don’t know. I– I just think that, uh, our relationship shouldn’t be anyone else’s business but, you know, ours.

Thomas: Yeah, I agree. Though, yeah, it would be nice to have a little bit of support from some people that we know. Like, between my sister and my mom and your entire family. Uh, yeah, it’d be nice if they would at least acknowledge how much I love you and that I’d do anything for you.

Hope: Well, I think the only opinions that should matter when it comes to us is yours and mine.

Thomas: Hm. Well, my opinion is that you are the smartest, most talented, most beautiful woman that I have ever met. I am so proud to call you mine. I’m so proud to work next to you and I’m thankful for every moment we get to spend together. And I am very much looking forward to that ring coming off the necklace and going on your finger.

Finn: You made it.

Steffy: Yeah. Well, when you text me, I just drop everything and I come right over. Actually, I did have an appointment like right down the street.

Finn: Well, thanks for fitting me in.

Steffy: Yeah, of course. So, what’s going on?

Finn: Um…

Steffy: Is it my grandfather? Is everything okay?

Finn: Oh, no, no. Eric– eric’s doing fine. He’s doing better and better every day.

Steffy: Really?

Finn: Yeah.

Steffy: Thank goodness. Yeah, I just, I don’t know if I could handle A… I mean, with everything going on. My grandfather and thomas, his relationship with hope, or whatever you want to call it. And now xander being back and spreading these lies. I assured thomas that you weren’t going to say anything to anyone.

Finn: Well, actually, that’s– that’s why I texted you. That’s why I wanted to see you. There’s something you need to know. Xander came back. I met with him.

Zende: Relax, okay? It was a friendly thing.

Rj: Oh, it was a friendly thing. So– so it’s friendly for you to invite someone else’s girlfriend to a private dinner and then give them a kiss? Is that– is that friendly for you?

Zende: Rj, I grew up in europe. This is– this was– it’s nothing, okay? Maybe it’s one of those situations where we had to be there to understand the vibe, right luna?

Rj: Oh no, I understand the vibe, zende. You’re right, I wasn’t there, despite what you led her to believe. Are you trying to get to me through luna?

Luna: Okay. Okay, guys, let’s not let this get weird.

Rj: Oh, no, we’re beyond that.

Luna: Okay, I just don’t want you guys fighting over me.

Rj: First of all, you’re not okay with me working with granddad, then you’re not okay with me working with my own father. And now, I find out that you’re kissing my girlfriend?

Zende: Rj, the time I spend with luna really has nothing to do with you.

Rj: It has everything to do with me, zende! You know, this whole situation with granddad made me really realize just how fragile life is. And it’s why I’ve been so patient with you. It’s why I’ve been reaching out to you. That’s why I asked you to work on this collection with me and– and this is how you’re gonna repay me? You know what? My patience has an end. I’m not gonna allow you to make moves on luna. Now, grab your sketchbook and back off.

Hope: I hope you realize how much I appreciate your proposal.

Thomas: I do. And I do wish that you had said yes, but, um, I don’t know, I guess in one way or another, I’m glad you didn’T. I don’t want you agreeing to a wedding you’re not ready for.

Hope: Hm. Yeah. Been down that road before.

Thomas: Oh, yeah. Uh, yeah, we– I have. Though that feels like it was with a different person. Like I– I told you before, I’ll say it again. I felt like I’ve waited my entire life to be married to you, so I can wait a little longer.

Hope: Can you?

Thomas: Maybe.

Steffy: You met with xander? You know how I feel about that.

Finn: Look, it’s not like I planned to. I didn’t seek him out. He called, he wanted to see me.

Steffy: So, hang up! It’s that easy. You don’t have to engage.

Finn: Look, I don’t know what to tell you, steffy. There’s this desperation about him, okay? There seems like there’s a lot more going on. So, yeah, I agreed to meet him.

Steffy: So, why did he want to see you this time? Does he have more accusations against thomas?

Finn: Look, I understand that this is difficult for you and you want to support your brother.

Steffy: No, I want you to be able to support my brother. See that he’s changed. He’s worked really hard to become a better man.

Finn: Why? Because he wasn’t a good man before? Because he did terrible, terrible things, maybe even things that you don’t want to face? Look, but after what xander has said, I’m convinced now more than ever that thomas may be responsible for emma barber’s death.

Rj: I can’t believe him. He’s trying to get to me through you.

Luna: I mean, yeah, I basically said the same thing, but he insisted that that’s not the case.

Rj: I– I didn’t mean to imply. I mean, it just– of course, he thinks you’re hot, you’re hot.

Luna: Don’t worry, my self-esteem is not that bad. I didn’t think that I was only like a pawn in some game. But I don’t know. Maybe it’s a– it’s a little bit of both. Like sure, zende’s attracted to me, but also sticking it to you would make him happy too.

Rj: I just– I don’t get why he’s so jealous. Maybe he’s just jealous because I have you.

Luna: Well, you do realize that I– I never would have met up with him if I had known. I mean, I– I– I genuinely thought that the invitation was from you.

Rj: I know, it’s okay. It’s fine. I actually have a question though. Was the dinner any good at all?

Luna: Well, I did not stick around to find out.

Rj: Good.

Luna: Look, zende is a charming guy, but make no mistake my heart’s with you.

Rj: Love you.

Thomas: You know how much I want you.

Hope: Hm. I want you too. Wow. Thomas.

Thomas: Mm-hmm?

Hope: About the engagement.

Thomas: I know, I know. Not yet. And that’s okay. I can live with that. Really. This– I don’t know, it feels promising. Feels like yes is just around the corner.

Steffy: Finn, you have to drop this.

Finn: Steffy, if he killed an innocent girl then–

Steffy: There was a police investigation and they determined emma died by her own reckless driving.

Finn: Her own or thomas’s? Xander said that thomas was determined to stop emma from telling hope the truth. They were fighting about it at forrester. Emma took off, thomas followed, chasing after her in his car, dangerously tailgating her.

Steffy: How does xander even know this? He wasn’t even there.

Finn: No, he wasn’T. But he seemed certain. And he looked at the security footage. He saw thomas going after her. He even accessed the gps in thomas’s car and figured out that he was there. Thomas was on mulholland.

Steffy: He could have been on his way to brooke’s house. It’s like the same route. It doesn’t mean he was anywhere near emma or maliciously ran her off the road. My god. I mean, emma was a really, really sweet girl. What happened to her was a tragedy, but it was not murder. I know my brother and yes, he has done some shady things in the past, but what xander is saying is not true.

Finn: Yeah, well, but there’s evidence and there’s a lot–

Steffy: Evidence that the police already looked into. They investigated it. Thomas was cleared. Look, this is why I didn’t want you digging all of this stuff up. It’s dangerous.

Finn: Do you think–

Steffy: I am not– I am not saying that thomas is dangerous. I’m saying this situation, xander coming here, spreading all these lies, hope doing whatever it is that she’s doing. It could just– it could trigger him. It could make him more vulnerable and he could backslide.

Finn: Do you think that he could become obsessed again?

Steffy: I hope not. My brother has changed.

Finn: Look, I understand, okay, why you want to believe in him. You are a protective, loving sister and I respect it so much, but you’re wrong.

Steffy: Finn, I don’t want to talk about this–

Finn: No, you need to go to thomas, ask him about emma and get the truth.

Thomas: I’ve worked really hard and it’s wonderful that you see that. I mean, I’ve worked from being the person I was to a completely new human being. And now, finally, I feel like I’m worthy of you. Worthy of your love.

Xander: I’m not making this up. Look, you have to believe me. Thomas is dangerous. He killed someone.

Thomas: I didn’t kill anyone, steff. You know that.

Steffy: Of course, I know that.

Thomas: Then tell finn to back off. To stay out of my relationship with hope and stop listening to xander.

Steffy: Thomas, I understand why you’re upset. I don’t want finn dredging up all the horrible events surrounding emma’s death either.

Rj: You can, uh, you can rest now, granddad. They said they’re all done. That’s all the tests for today.

Eric: Good.

Rj: How are you feeling? You feeling any stronger?

Eric: Stitches… healing. Don’t make me laugh. It’s just so funny looking.

Rj: Well, I can, uh, I can see that your sense of humor, thank god, is still intact.

Eric: Yeah. I hope so.

Zende: You must be confused.

Luna: Yeah, I don’t– I don’t understand. Where’s rj?

Zende: He’s at the hospital. He went to see our grandfather.

Luna: But he– he sent me a note asking me to meet here. You’re saying that was you?

Eric: Glad you’re here

Rj: I just came to check on you. We all really miss you at the office.

Eric: Soon.

Rj: Yeah, soon. Keep progressing the way you are, you’re gonna– you’re gonna walk out of here. Otherwise, we’ll bust you out. All right?

Eric: Yeah.

Rj: But, um, you know, until then I’ll be here. Every day to check on you.

Eric: Love you, rj. Love you.

Rj: Love you too, granddad.

Luna: So it was you.

Zende: I arranged dinner, sent you that note. I hope it’s cool?

Luna: Yeah. No, I just, um, I don’t know, I just assumed that it was from rj.

Zende: I didn’t mean to throw you off. I wasn’t trying to be sneaky or anything. You look beautiful tonight, luna.

Luna: Thank you. Um, angelo was kind enough to let me borrow this dress from the archives.

Zende: It’s not the dress. I can’t take my eyes off of you.

Steffy: Thomas, I completely understand your frustration. And I told finn not to follow up on this. Told him to let it go.

Thomas: Okay, I don’t think he’s gonna let it go, ’cause the way he was talking earlier–

Steffy: No, he will. He’s not gonna bring it up anymore.

Finn: You seem pretty certain about this allegation.

Xander: I am. I wouldn’t be here if it was just a hunch. And– and now thomas and hope are working together? I mean, they’re in a relationship?

Finn: Yeah, I can hardly believe it myself.

Xander: Look, the fact that thomas knew that beth was alive and told no one was bad enough. But believe me, he didn’t stop there.

Finn: Look, I need to know if thomas really is a murderer. Are you absolutely certain?

Eric: Mm.

Rj: Good?

Eric: That’s all, okay.

Rj: Okay.

Eric: Good, thank you.

Rj: No problem. We gotta keep you hydrated so you can get back to drinking those martinis.

Eric: Yeah.

Rj: Mm-hmm.

Eric: Yeah.

Rj: How, um, how about some food? Do you want something to eat? You know, I– I saw the pudding, and the pudding looks… seriously, maybe I can sneak in some pizza, and we just don’t tell anybody about that.

Eric: Rj…

Rj: Yeah?

Eric: How’s luna?

Rj: She’s– she’s good. Yeah. Um, she asks about you all the time. She’s pulling for you.

Eric: The two of you are…

Rj: We’re– we’re great. Yeah. Better than ever.

Eric: I knew it.

[ Laughs ]

Luna: I know what you’re doing, zende.

Zende: Having dinner with a gorgeous woman?

Luna: No, I just– this whole competitive vibe with rj.

Zende: About work, maybe.

Luna: No, about everything.

Zende: Nah.

Luna: So you’re not using me to try to get back at rj?

Zende: No, I swear, I’m not. I really enjoyed getting to know you, luna. And I just wanna get to know you a little bit better. Dance with me?

Luna: What? In these shoes?

Zende: Then take them off.

Luna: What am I gonna do with you?

Zende: I can think of a few things. But seriously, I mean, there’s nothing wrong with the two of us having dinner together. All right, all right. I get it. Rj is the golden child. Ridge junior. The son of brooke logan and ridge forrester.

Luna: Come on. Rj does not use the nepo baby card. He’s so modest and down to earth. Besides, you guys are cousins. You should be figuring out a way to be friends with each other. Look, rj does not want any problems with you, and neither do I. Okay? I like you, zende, but… I have to go.

Zende: Aww, don’t leave.

Luna: Look, I’m dating rj.

Zende: Technically that means you’re still single, right? So am I. Oh, come on. Just stay, hang out. Enjoy the evening. Everything I have planned.

Steffy: I told finn that xander’s probably making these accusations to get back at you.

Thomas: Do you know how painful it is to know that your husband thinks I could intentionally kill someone?

Steffy: I made it clear to finn that it was a horrible accident. One I wish we could put behind us.

Thomas: Right. But now he’s throwing gasoline on the flames.

Steffy: This isn’t finn’s fault. He didn’t intentionally go out to seek xander. They met by chance.

Thomas: So xander says. But either way, finn is listening to some random guy instead of his brother-in-law.

Steffy: He’s just protective of me, thomas.

Thomas: Steffy, he told me that he believes I’m a bad person. And now he’s listening to some random stranger who obviously has it out for me.

Steffy: Finn met xander by accident. Once. Okay? It is never gonna happen again.

Finn: How dangerous is thomas?

Xander: I mean, is there anything worse than ending someone’s life? Look, I’m telling you, there’s no limits with thomas, dr. Finnegan.

Finn: No, just– just call me finn.

Xander: Finn… thomas will do anything to protect his own interests. And now I see that he’s getting closer with hope. And I’ve read all the stuff online. It just gives me the creeps looking at the guy. I don’t know what she sees in him. I’ve always admired hope. She’s got everything going for her. You know, she’s smart, beautiful, successful. I don’t know what the hell she’s thinking.

Finn: Well, like my wife, hope buys into this new and improved thomas.

Xander: Yeah. I don’t know, man. I’m worried about her.

Finn: Yeah, me too. But since I wasn’t around back then, I’m not trying to rush into any judgment. I’m trying to keep an open mind, so you need to tell me what happened. The details. Give me the details. What exactly happened the night emma barber died?

Your heart is

the beat of life.

If you have heart failure,

Rj: So, um, I guess you could say that luna and I are getting a little more serious.

Eric: Nice. Nice.

[ Rj chuckles ]

Rj: Yeah, she’S… she’s perfect. She’s just– she’s so supportive and– and she asks about how you’re doing all the time. How I’m doing. She’s just there with me every second. And just– and just thoughtful and– and loving. It’s great. It’s really great. It’s nice having someone I can– I can count on, you know?

Eric: She’s a great girl.

Rj: I agree. 1,000%. I’m lucky to have her. Honestly.

[ Laughs ] I, uh… I like where it’s headed.

Zende: Dinner will be ready shortly. My favorite restaurant in san francisco.

Luna: This is sweet, zende. And I appreciate all of this. But… I can’t have dinner with you.

Zende: Because of rj?

Luna: Yes, because of rj.

Zende: Are you sure? Well… if I can’t have dinner with you… you can at least tell me who the better kisser is.

Luna: I can’t tell you that. I haven’t kissed you. You’re crazy.

Zende: And you’re breathtaking.

Luna: Thank you. And look, I’m flattered. And I have to admit that it’s nice having two incredible forrester guys show interest in me.

Zende: It can’t be too surprising.

Luna: Well, this whole experience, I mean, interning here. The people I’ve met. Getting invited to a romantic dinner like this. I mean, it’s– it’s all beyond my wildest dreams. But rj and I are…

Zende: Engaged? Married?

Luna: No. But I’m happy with rj, and I love him.

Thomas: I don’t want any bad blood with your husband, but now he’s trying to come between me and hope.

Steffy: Finn probably felt obligated to tell hope after what he heard.

Thomas: Okay, well, now he’s crossing a line though. He’s fanning the flames. And– and hope knows about emma’s death and how much of a tragedy it was. But I don’t need finn coming in and saying some crazy things about me.

Steffy: I hear you.

Thomas: Finn’s worried about what I’ll do to hope. Seriously? Me? I love hope and I never want to hurt her.

Steffy: I trust you, thomas.

Thomas: I know, and I know that you have issues with hope and me, our relationship, but… this is about bringing up emma’s death. Okay? I– I had nothing to do with that.

Steffy: Look, I told finn he can no longer communicate with xander. I’m on your side. Okay? I believe in you.

Thomas: Thank you, steff.

Steffy: Yeah.

Xander: The night that emma died, um… look, okay, I’ve– I’ve put together things that I heard from that night. Things that I saw and that I know. And, um, this is how I think it went down. Emma confronted thomas at forrester.

Emma: Shouldn’t steffy know the truth?

Thomas: My sister is her mother.

Emma: No, she’s not. Hope is her mother!

Thomas: Will you keep your voice down?

Xander: Told him that she wouldn’t keep his secret any longer.

Emma: You can’t stop me from telling her.

Xander: So thomas threatened her.

Thomas: This is none of your business. Don’t push me, emma. I am dead serious.

Xander: When she refused to be intimidated, that’s when she ran off to tell hope that her baby was still alive. That’s when thomas followed her.

Finn: So emma was driving to hope’s to reveal the truth about what thomas had done?

Xander: Yeah. But thomas made sure that emma never got there.

Eric: Rj… hang on to luna.

Rj: Oh… [ Chuckles ] I definitely will. Absolutely. I… cherish every single second I get to spend with her. It’s not every day a girl like her comes into your life, you know?

Eric: That’s right.

Rj: This whole experience with you, you know, getting sick, how hard that’s been… it just really showed me how valuable it was to just have luna there in my corner.

Luna: I’m just not used to this kind of attention.

Zende: I find that hard to believe. I mean, look at you.

Luna: Well, I was actually in the chess club in high school, so…

Zende: No. I was too.

Luna: Really?

Zende: Yeah. We’ll have to play together sometime.

Luna: Yeah, maybe.

Zende: Okay. Okay, I won’t push.

Luna: Thanks. And I really do hope that you’ll respect my feelings for rj.

Zende: I will.

Luna: I will have to tell him about this though.

Zende: About what? That we spent some time in the salon together? Some candles and music and a little impromptu kiss on the cheek? You have to admit it was a pretty good cheek kiss.

Luna: I’m chill. But all good things must come to an end, right?

Zende: Should I take that as a sign of encouragement?

Luna: Zende, I’m your friend. Okay? So no more secret notes pretending to be rj and no more tricking me into a cheek kiss. Okay? You’re a great guy. You’ll find someone.

Zende: It’s too bad rj met you first.

Luna: He did. And he stole my heart.

Zende: Rj is a very lucky man.

Thomas: What more do I have to prove, steff?

Steffy: You just keep doing what you’re doing.

Thomas: Look, I– I was in a dark place in the past, but I found therapy, right? And– and– and ways to center myself, practices. And I continue to do those practices. I’m a new person now, steff.

Steff: You just stay on that path, all right?

Thomas: I will. Look, I have turned my life around. I have made amends. I’m dedicated to being a good man, a good father. But your husband, he doesn’t believe that. He looks at me like I’m some kind of monster. Why can’t he just show me the– the tiniest bit of grace or– or understanding?

Steffy: I get it. I do.

Thomas: Then call him off. I just want peace.

Steffy: I want that too. Emma’s death is a very dangerous, volatile subject. It is very important that finn leaves it alone.

Xander: Like I said, I wasn’t there, but in my mind, I’m certain of how it went down. Thomas chased after emma in his car.

Emma: What are you doing?

Xander: Forced her to drive fast on mulholland. Mulholland, it’s a winding road and it was dark. I’m sure emma was terrified.

Emma: Get off my bumper, you idiot!

Xander: Thomas dangerously tailing her…

[ Tires squealing ] …Right on her bumper.

Finn: What, you think thomas ran her off the road?

Xander: Like I said, I– I wasn’t there, but… when you put the pieces together.

Finn: I mean, yeah. It’s no secret that thomas is a man with issues.

Xander: Look, thomas threatened us. He bullied us. I knew emma, okay? She was a cautious driver. The only thing that got her killed was trying to tell hope the truth about beth.

Finn: Okay, yes, but there was a police investigation, and they found no foul play.

Xander: It was ruled an accidental death, but I know better. I saw the security footage from forrester. I saw thomas running to his car, chasing after emma. He went after her. I knew it. So I checked his gps system. Oh, my god. He was at the scene of the accident that night.

Finn: You’re sure?

Xander: Positive. But thomas weaseled his way out of the investigation somehow.

Finn: But you still believe he’s guilty?

Xander: Without a doubt. And as much as your wife and the rest of her family doesn’t want to believe it, thomas is a murderer. He’s responsible for emma’s death, so what are we gonna do about it, finn? We need to put an end to thomas once and for all.

[dramatic music ]

Thomas: You’re putting me on notice? “As long as I live and breathe, you’ll never be with Hope.” Really? You think Hope deserves better than me?

Finn: She deserves a normal, stable relationship with a guy that she can trust and depend on.

Thomas: Hope trusts me.

Finn: Yeah. And I’m saying she shouldn’t.

Finn: What aren’t you telling me? No. Look, I– I understand that Thomas has done a lot of terrible things in the past, and even I wouldn’t have thought murder. Is your brother more dangerous than I realized?

Poppy: Your text said you were swamped. Too busy to get outta the office?

Luna: Um, yeah.

Poppy: Um, why do I feel like I’ve been lured into a trap?

Luna: Okay. So maybe I may have taken advantage of your maternal instincts a little bit.

Poppy: Okay. So you weren’t dying for a chai latte?

Luna: No. I am dying to know how your date went with Bill Spencer.

Poppy: It was lovely reconnecting with Bill.

Luna: Wait, so he was right? You two really did know each other?

Poppy: Mm. From years ago.

Luna: But he never forgot you.

Poppy: No, he thought he recognized me, and he did. You know, which isn’t surprising, given how many people I meet on the craft fair circuit.

Luna: Really? Bill Spencer doesn’t seem like a craft fair type.

Poppy: All right, fine. It was at a music festival. Okay. But– but decades ago, you know. Which reminds me, I’m setting up a booth at the farmer’s market in Malibu this weekend. Do you wanna help me? Like old times?

Luna: Wait, I thought you were gonna take a break after the holidays.

Poppy: Well, if you don’t want to–

Luna: No, no, no. I’d love to. Can RJ come with?

Poppy: Of course, he can. You really care about him.

Luna: Yeah. I could go on and on about RJ all night.

Poppy: You know what? Great idea. Let’s go to dinner and you can talk my ear off about him over enchiladas mole.

Luna: Ooh.

Poppy: Yes. What is it, honey?

Luna: Um… well, I think you’re gonna be having enchiladas without me. “Dinner in the salon. One hour. Can’t wait to see you.”

Poppy: Hm.

[ Luna laughs ]

RJ: Hey.

Zende: What do you want, RJ?

RJ: Listen, I just– I– I just want you to hear me out on something, okay?

Zende: Don’t you have some big important work to be doing with your father?

RJ: Come on. Really? Don’t– don’t be like that. I just, I came in here to tell you that I get it. I get it. I– I get that you wanted to be the one to work with my dad and finish Granddad’s line. And I’m telling you that you can still do that. We can all work together on this.

Zende: Oh, you’re inviting me to join your project.

RJ: I’m just saying that we’re all, you know, we’re– we could all work together. Why not? We– we all wanna honor Granddad, so let’s do that.

Zende: Okay, great. RJ, just tell me one thing. Does your dad need you to draw for him like Granddad did?

RJ: Do? No. What?

Zende: Because that’s what you are. You are a draftsman. I’m a designer.

Xander: I know it sounds crazy and I’m sure you don’t wanna believe that your brother-in-law’s capable of something like this, but Thomas, he’s… he’s not a good guy. You should be very careful with him.

Finn: You’re– you’re saying Thomas murdered somebody?

Thomas: I really wish you didn’t feel that way. I’ve proven for a long time that I’m not that person anymore. No one has to worry about Hope with me. No one has to protect Hope from me.

Finn: Are you sure about that, Thomas? Because the things that I’m hearing are making me wonder.

Thomas: I understand. But you’re not listening to what I’m saying. You’re not watching my actions. Look, Hope and I, we’ve– we’ve grown so much closer. We’re so much more connected than we were before. We’re really a couple. I’m looking forward to a relationship with her. She is my future.

Finn: You felt that way before, Thomas. She didn’t.

Thomas: I’m not a threat to Hope or to anyone. Not anymore. And I get it. Look, Xander’s coming in here and he’s telling you this story about Emma and her car accident, and it’s gotta trip you up. I get that. But remember who I am. I’m your kid’s uncle. We’re family, man. We should be on the same side. I– I really hope you can believe me. Don’t let Xander come in and drive a wedge between us. And please, please, do not drive a wedge between Hope and me.

Luna: Dinner in the salon.

Poppy: It’s very romantic. And being invited like this, so much sweeter than a text.

Luna: Yeah. Well, and that’s RJ making sure everything’s perfect. Oh, god. But the dinner’s gonna be like super fancy, too. I can’t show up like this.

Poppy: What? You look fantastic.

Luna: No, no. I’m dressed for work. Okay. This is like a let’s-go-and grab-burgers-after kind of outfit. It’s not a secret-note-through-the-door kind of outfit. What am I gonna wear? I don’t have time to go back home.

Poppy: Fortunately, you work at a fashion house.

RJ: I’m just trying to find some common ground here, Zende. That’s all I’m trying to do, man.

Zende: No, what you’re trying to do is make me feel okay with you finishing Granddad’s collection.

RJ: Yes. Obviously. And– and you’re not.

Zende: RJ, I support your interest in design. I think it’s great that you wanna be part of the family business. I know how much it means to Ridge and to Granddad, but this collection is different.

RJ: How is it different? Grand– Granddad said that I could handle this.

Zende: You were his assistant, not his protégé.

RJ: Oh, we’re gonna go back to this again? I thought you understood when you found out about Granddad’s condition, Zende.

Zende: Listen, his condition is the most important thing right now. Nothing is more important than Granddad’s recovery.

RJ: I agree with that. So, what could be better for him right now than seeing all of us pull together?

Zende: I did not understand why Granddad chose you to be on his team for the showdown. I didn’t know the whole story. Now, I do. But it doesn’t change the fact that you have been given more opportunity around here than everyone else. And we all know why. ‘Cause you are the golden child, Ridge, Jr.

Steffy: Xander isn’t as innocent as you think. He was part of the whole baby Beth lie.

Finn: So, you think he’s making these accusations against Thomas as payback?

Steffy: That’s exactly what I think. Look, what happened to Emma, it was terrible, but it was an accident. I will tell you it again. Thomas is not to blame, so drop it, okay?

Finn: I am not gonna debate this with you, Thomas.

Thomas: Well, we probably should ’cause you have it all wrong.

Finn: Okay. Look, I’m– I’m trying to figure out the truth.

Thomas: You’re not gonna get that from Xander.

Finn: Or from you. Am I, Thomas?

[ Phone chimes ]

Finn: You’re very smooth. You deflect my questions. But Xander didn’t come to my office to start trouble. He was stunned when he realized that I was married to Steffy and related to you.

Thomas: Xander’s wrong. His accusations are false. And Hope, she’s not some damsel in distress. She can make her own decisions about who is in her life.

Finn: And she’s making the wrong one with you.

RJ: I’m not gonna apologize to you because I’m Ridge and Brooke’s son, Zende.

Zende: You need to know what that means. The leg up it gives you.

RJ: I know the leg up that it gives me. I know how lucky I am. It was incredible, all the time I got to spend with Granddad. I’m not taking a single second of this for granted.

Zende: It’s not luck, RJ. It’s who you are.

RJ: Who I am? You are a Forrester, Zende. We’re both Forresters. What’s your argument?

Zende: You do not have the chops to work on a historic collection like this. That’s it.

RJ: Well, may– maybe I– I don’t, but I– I– I’ve learned a lot from Granddad. I learned hell of a lot from him. I– I–

Zende: Listen, you spent a few weeks learning from the master and now you feel entitled to help finish his collection? What am I saying? Entitled? Of course, you are. You are doing exactly what a Ridge Forrester does best. Flirting with the interns, camping out in the CEO office, walking around with your noses–

RJ: Stop it! You know what? I’ve been– I’ve been trying to see this from your side the whole time, and now, I’m done. Okay. Good luck, Zende. I have plans.

Poppy: This is the one.

Luna: You think?

Poppy: Mm-hmm.

Luna: Angela was nice enough to let me borrow it.

Poppy: You look stunning.

Luna: Well, I hope RJ feels the same way.

Poppy: You’re gonna take his breath away. RJ is one lucky guy.

Luna: Mom, I have never met anyone like RJ. I mean, he’s the most thoughtful, empathetic person ever. I mean, if he really cares about someone or something, you can tell. And he puts his heart into everything. I mean, his work and his family, but especially with his surprises. I’m talking chocolates, lunches, uh, flowers. He just, he pays attention to every detail.

Poppy: You two are having quite the effect on each other. The way you talk about him, you sound like a girl in love. Good for you. Enjoy it.

Luna: Mom, I’ve been waiting my entire life for a guy like RJ.

Thomas: Your timing of texting is excellent.

Steffy: Oh, I’m sorry. Why? Did I pull you away from something?

Thomas: No, I was just getting an earful from your husband.

Xander: Your assistant said I could come in.

Finn: Shut the door.

Xander: Thanks for seeing me again, Dr. Finnegan. To be honest, I wasn’t sure that you would.

Finn: Yeah, I was surprised. I thought our first meeting would be our last.

Xander: Right. Right. Sorry, it’s just, um, after seeing that picture and, you know, everything with Thomas, it just kinda freaked me out a little.

Finn: No, to be honest, what you told me about Thomas freaked me out, too.

Xander: So, you believe me?

Finn: Right now, I don’t know what to believe.

Xander: Because I– I mean, I’d understand if you– if you didn’t. I’m just some guy that walked into your office, told you something horrible about your family. But I– I promise I’m telling the truth.

Finn: Can you prove it?

Xander: Beyond reasonable doubt? No. Neither could the cops. I mean, that’s why Thomas isn’t in jail, but he should be. But Doctor, I’m telling you, Thomas is dangerous. And he’s responsible for Emma Barbara’s death.

RJ: Hi. Uh, where’s Granddad?

Nurse: Downstairs getting some tests.

RJ: Oh, okay. How’s, uh, how’s– how’s he doing? Is he– is he doing okay?

Nurse: Getting stronger every day.

RJ: Glad to hear it.

Nurse: If you can wait, I know he’d be happy to see you. You’re a wonderful grandson to visit so often.

Luna: Zende.

Zende: Hi.

Luna: Hi.

Zende: You look fantastic.

Luna: Thanks. Uh, have you seen RJ?

Zende: No, I haven’t.

Luna: Oh, I– I was supposed to meet him here.

Zende: Are you sure?

Luna: Yeah. He, uh, slipped me a note.

Zende: “Dinner in the salon. One hour. Can’t wait to see you.” I’m so glad you’re here, Luna. I’m really looking forward to our evening together.

Steffy: You were with Finn?

Thomas: Yeah. I overheard him bashing me to Hope.

Steffy: Bashing you.

Thomas: He told her that she hasn’t been herself lately. That I have been corrupting her, and that she’s just been lashing out since we’ve been together.

Steffy: You want me to disagree?

Thomas: Yeah. That’d be nice to have, you know, some family support.

Steffy: Well, I– I don’t think you’re corrupting Hope, but she’s changed. Finn isn’t wrong about that.

Thomas: He told Hope that she deserves a one-woman man, but not me. He looked her directly in the eyes and said that I’m not good enough for her. Especially after hearing Xander’s accusations against me.

Xander: I understand if you don’t wanna believe that Thomas is capable of murder and that you’re worried about Hope. I mean, you should be. It seems like she’s getting closer and closer with Thomas and… I’m sorry. Are they seriously in a relationship? You know, they’re– they’re working together. He’s– he’s the lead designer. Is that true?

Finn: No, I’m– I’m concerned, too.

Xander: Okay. Then tell me that you’ll listen to me. Emma was an innocent young woman with her whole life ahead of her until Thomas ran her off Mulholland Drive. He couldn’t risk Hope knowing the truth about Beth and was willing to do anything to make sure that Emma didn’t tell her that her child was alive.

Finn: Okay, Xander, understand that’s a very serious accusation.

Xander: Look, that’s why I’m back here, to make you– look, I don’t care if– if the investigation is over, okay? Thomas threatened me, and I know what he’s capable of. He’s capable of murder.

Thomas: Please, Steff, you may not wanna hear it, but I love Hope and I believe that she loves me, too. We could have a wonderful relationship together, and think about how amazing that would be for Douglas. He would love it so much. So please, talk to Finn. Convince him I’m not a threat. Don’t let him interfere in my relationship with Hope.

Recap written by Suzanne

After hearing Finn tell Hope that she deserves better than him, Thomas tries to convince Finn that he’s not a bad person, but Finn doesn’t believe him.

Poppy stops by to see Luna, who’s happy to hear that her date with Bill went well. Luna gets a text that she thinks is from RJ, asking her to meet him in the salon. She borrows a Forrester dress from someone name Angela. Poppy can tell how much Luna loves RJ, so Luna gushes about how great he is.

RJ tries to get Zende to work with him and Ridge on Eric’s collection, but Zende accuses RJ of being the golden boy. He says RJ doesn’t have the experience or training to be getting such great design opportunities over him. RJ gives up after it’s clear that he’s not getting anywhere with Zende.

Recap written by Suzanne

Finn keeps telling Hope about how Xander accused Thomas of murdering Emma, and why he’s so concerned about her dating Thomas. She tells Finn that the police cleared Thomas of any wrongdoing. Finn explains to Hope how amazing she is and why he thinks that she can do way better than Thomas.

Meanwhile, Steffy fills Thomas in on what Xander said, as well. He thanks her for sticking up for him with Finn. They wonder why Xander is bringing all this up now. Thomas vows that no one will get in the way of his relationship with Hope.

Thomas goes to Finn’s office and hears part of his conversation with Hope. He then talks to Finn about it later, after Hope has left. He lays out how he’s changed and that Hope has forgiven him. He warns Finn not to come between him and Hope. Finn takes it as a threat. Finn tells him off, saying that he’s a bad person and shouldn’t be with Hope. Thomas warns him again.

Steffy mentions to Hope that Xander is back in town, so Hope tells her that she heard all about it from Finn. Steffy is surprised that Hope and Finn have been talking. Steffy tells her that with Xander going around spouting accusations, Thomas needs someone who is fully committed to him. Hope flashes back to Thomas asking her to marry him.

Ridge, Carter and Brooke talk about how good Eric looks now. Ridge is cautiously optimistic and still feeling guilty for not honoring Eric’s wishes. Carter talks about how much Eric has done for him, and Ridge repeats what Eric said not too long – that Carter is part of their family. Ridge changes the subject to Thomas and Hope. He thinks they should all let them be as the grownups that they are. Carter excuses himself. Brooke admits that Thomas is behaving better. Ridge is grateful for her support.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[dramatic music]

Hope: Okay, okay, I– just– just hold on– hold on a second. So, the fact that xander is even back in town is news enough, but that he is still making these accusations against thomas?

Finn: Look, xander seemed emotional to even talk about it, but you get why your relationship with thomas is so concerning for everyone who cares about you?

Hope: I just– I don’t understand why he’s coming back to town and bringing all this stuff up again.

Finn: Maybe because it’s true. Maybe thomas is responsible for emma barber’s death.

Thomas: Hold on. Xander said what?

Steffy: He told finn that you killed emma.

Thomas: Why would he do that? Why would he make these kind of accusations?

Steffy: I don’t know. I just wish they never had this conversation.

Thomas: What did you tell finn?

Steffy: I told finn that it wasn’t true. To forget what xander said. Never mention it again.

Brooke: Eric looked good.

Carter: Yeah, a little better every time we see him.

Brooke: Don’t you think, ridge?

Ridge: Yeah, sure. I don’t wanna get too excited. He’s not out of the woods yet. We don’t know. This– this procedure, we don’t know what it did. We don’t know how compromised dad might be and what kind of life I sentenced him to.

Carter: Ridge, I can’t even imagine. An intense responsibility was placed in your hands, but eric is hopefully on the mend.

Brooke: You did the right thing, ridge.

Ridge: Listen, obviously, I’m– I’m happy that he’s doing better. I– but I– I– we don’t– we don’t know who he’s gonna be when he comes back, when he– he crossed over to the other side, right? And maybe he saw mom, maybe he saw phoebe. I haven’t been able to talk to him about that and I don’t– maybe a part of him wanted to stay there.

Thomas: Now would be a good time to say thank you.

Steffy: To me? For what?

Thomas: We may not always agree, but… when we’re down in the trenches, you always have my back and that means the world to me.

Steffy: Well, I’m your sister. I’m always gonna be on your side.

Thomas: Even when I don’t deserve it?

Steffy: Stop. Please. You have done an incredible job working on yourself, remaking yourself. And yeah, have you made mistakes in the past? We all have. But you’re a good man. And look, what happened to emma, it was a tragic accident, but it was an accident. She lost control of her car. It wasn’t your fault.

Hope: I cared about emma a lot. We were friends. I felt responsible for her. She was my intern. She was young. She was full of promise and she left us too soon. And we all struggled with her loss, xander especially, but to keep blaming thomas?

Finn: You think xander is lying?

Hope: Xander took his theory to the police and they did a full investigation and they cleared thomas.

Finn: Yeah, that’s what steffy said.

Hope: Okay, so then why– why are you digging into this?

Finn: No, I’m not. This guy, xander, shows up at my office, and he clearly thinks thomas is guilty and that worries me, hope. I care about you. You didn’t live this strong,

Carter: Eric changed my life. Believed in me. He gave me opportunities I would’ve never had without him and I’m very thankful for the career, but most important is… he made me feel like family.

Ridge: Because you are family. Don’t ever doubt that.

Brooke: We’re lucky to be able to claim you.

Ridge: Speaking of family, this is important. We all gotta be on the same page.

Carter: About eric?

Ridge: About eric and… hope and thomas. I know you have your concerns, but–

Brooke: Of course, I have concerns. They’re valid.

Ridge: I have my reservations as well, but thomas has worked hard. He lost his way and now, he’s back and if hope and thomas want to have a relationship, they’re grown-ups. Let them have it.

Thomas: Okay, so what are the chances of xander showing up at finn’s office as a new patient?

Steffy: I know. It’s a crazy coincidence.

Thomas: You sure there wasn’t prior contact?

Steffy: That xander and finn knew each other? No. Finn had no idea who xander was.

Thomas: Okay, but maybe xander knew who finn was, right? Because it’s not exactly like you’re low profile.

Steffy: You think xander came back to pin emma’s death on you and used finn as a way to do it?

Thomas: It’s possible.

Steffy: Oh, my gosh. This is crazy.

Thomas: I know.

Steffy: I thought we’d put this all behind us.

Thomas: Obviously, xander hasn’T.

Steffy: Look, I– I tried to explain it to finn that xander knew about what happened with baby beth and he wanted to tell us, but you… you stopped him. And I think, maybe xander wants payback. Look, I– I know you’ve done dark things in the past, but I do not believe you would murder someone.

Thomas: Okay, but I’m gonna take a wild guess here and think that finn doesn’t think the same way that you do. I mean, he came in here, busted in and got in my face because you and I were arguing.

Steffy: Yeah, but he was just trying to be protective.

Thomas: You don’t need protection from me. And neither does hope. Look, I get why you’re worried about hope and me and our relationship, because you think that she could hurt me. And then, that could send me in a tailspin and put me in a bad way, but finn thinks the opposite. He thinks I could hurt hope, which is the last thing I’d ever do. I love her. I– I want the world for her. And no one, I mean no one, is gonna come between us.

Finn: Do you even realize what a remarkable woman you are? I’m a pretty good judge of ’em. I married one. My mother’s one. Oh, li, li. Not– definitely not sheila.

Hope: Yeah.

Finn: But look, the point is you’re amazing. You’re hope logan, founder of hope for the future, which is not only a kickass design house, but it’s this wonderful charitable organization that does so much good for people all around the world. I mean, who would’ve ever thought about combining the two.

Hope: Uh, it seemed– seemed obvious to me.

Finn: Well, that’s because you’re special. In all these years, you’ve worn your values and your principles out where everyone could see them and be inspired by them and emulate them. And this… detour to thomas? It’s not you.

[ Hope clearing her throat ]

Hope: I, uh… hate to break it to you, finn, but hope for the future, I mean, hope logan, this paragon of virtue, that’s not all I am. I’m also a woman and thomas reminds me of that.

Finn: I get it, okay? You’re rebelling against that image. I mean, against liam and the way he’s treated you, right? And then, there’s thomas. With his heart in his hand, he’s telling you everything you want to hear. You deserve better than him. And now, after hearing what xander had to say, that he might be responsible for the death of an innocent, young woman? Hope, he’s dangerous and you need to walk away.

Brooke: After everything that thomas has put hope through, you’re really asking me to ignore my reservations and support their relationship?

Ridge: Maybe not all of your reservations, but yeah, that’s what I’m asking you.

Carter: I don’t think I need to be here for this particular conversation.

Ridge: Carter, thanks for coming to the hospital.

Carter: Try and keep me away.

Ridge: What do you think?

Brooke: Hm. It’s not that simple. I’m concerned.

Ridge: I know you’re concerned, but what has thomas done lately? Has he mistreated hope in any way?

Brooke: No.

Ridge: Scared or made her feel afraid?

Brooke: Not that I know of.

Ridge: No, right? She seems pretty good. She seems happy doing what she thinks is right.

Brooke: Yes, but–

Ridge: But what? Thomas made mistakes. How hard does he have to work to get your trust back? How good does he have to be?

[ Brooke sighing ]

Brooke: I will admit, he has been on his best behavior lately.

Ridge: Yeah. So, what do you say? Why don’t we give him a break? He’s a changed man. He’s good enough for your daughter.

Steffy: You looking for thomas?

Hope: Yes. Do you know where he is?

Steffy: We spoke earlier.

Hope: Okay, well, if you find him, uh, can you tell him to see me?

Steffy: Uh, hope. Hold up a sec. Look, I– I think you should know something. Um… xander avant is back in town.

Hope: I know.

Steffy: You do?

Hope: Yes. I found out from your husband, actually.

Steffy: You were with finn?

Hope: Well, he, um, seems to be worried about my relationship with your brother.

Finn: Yeah, I can stop by in the morning and take a look at her chart. And if her vitals are stable, we can release her. Okay, thanks.

[ Knock on door ] Thomas.

Thomas: I wanted you to have time to finish your call.

Finn: How long have you been standing outside my door?

Thomas: Long enough to hear your conversation with hope.

Finn: Okay, well, I’d appreciate you not lurking around listening in on my conversations.

Thomas: Well, I, uh… I actually came here to talk to you, brother-in-law to brother-in-law.

Finn: Um, okay. I’M… I’m listening.

[ Thomas sighing ]

Thomas: I’m a very lucky person. Hope opened her heart and found forgiveness for me somehow. And now, somehow, we’re together and I am so in love with her. I’m going to treat hope like the jewel that she is. Now, you are married to my sister, which makes you my family, whether you like that or not. And I feel like, as family, we should be able to get along. I think we can get along. Look, hope’s heart, it’s safe with me. That hasn’t always been the case. She knows that, you know that. You know my history. I was a hurt person and I hurt people, but as a doctor, you also understand that people who are hurt, they can be rehabilitated. They can be healed. I’m healed, finn. And finn, I– I do not want trouble between us, so don’t make trouble between us. Don’t put yourself between me and hope, understand?

Ridge: Every aspect of my life, I feel your love and your support. At this point, I count on it. How do you do that? How do you know when I need it?

Brooke: Because I pay attention and it’s not a chore because you are my favorite subject.

Ridge: Yeah? Hey. Think about what I said.

Brooke: I will.

Steffy: So, finn specifically asked you to come to his office?

Hope: Um, yep. He texted me that he wanted to see me.

Steffy: About thomas?

Hope: Well, yes. He is concerned about our relationship, like everyone else and warned me against it.

Steffy: Interesting.

Hope: Yes. And then, he brought up xander and that’s how I knew he was back in town.

Steffy: What exactly did finn say?

Hope: Well, just that xander made accusations against thomas and his involvement with emma and her death.

Steffy: Look, I– I really wish finn didn’t bring you into this and I’m sorry about that.

Hope: No. It’s, um, it’s not like it’s my first time hearing it. We all had to deal with that.

Steffy: It was awful about what happened to emma. I mean, she was such a sweet girl, but what happened to her was an accident. She lost control of her car and she drove off mulholland. The police investigation proved that.

Hope: You don’t have to convince me. I mean, yes, thomas has done many regrettable things in the past, but a murderer he is not.

Steffy: I’m really glad to hear that because I know that thomas has turned his life around. Look, if these, um, these false accusations come out about emma, if they do, he’s gonna need someone to be there for him, to have his back. So, it’s either you’re all the way in or you are all the way out. He needs someone there who truly loves him and is there for him.

Thomas: Hope logan… will you marry me?

Steffy: It’s the least my brother deserves after all the hard work he’s done on himself.

[ Hope inhaling shakily ]

Finn: Sounds like you’re threatening me, but you– you wouldn’t do that, right? Because you’re the new and improved thomas. If you think that I’m buying any of this, you’re mistaken.

Thomas: Wait, this is so antagonistic. We’re supposed to be brothers-in-law. Like what? Why can’t we just support each other, right? Look, I’ve made mistakes in the past, yes, but haven’t you made mistakes before?

Finn: Not like you. And your mistakes aren’t little blunders, thomas. You kept hope away from her daughter for months and I understand why a family wants to believe the best in each other and I get why steffy is so quick to defend you, but I see you clearly, thomas. You are unstable as ever and you need to stay away from hope. And, by the way, after learning what xander has to say, I’m concerned now, more than ever, because not only are you unstable, you’re dangerous. Emma barber died that night and xander’s convinced you killed her.

Thomas: The case was closed and I wasn’t charged for a reason.

Finn: But that doesn’t mean you weren’t guilty. What happened that night, thomas?

Thomas: Do me a favor, finn. Don’t mess with my family or my life and especially, don’t mess with my relationship with hope.

Finn: Or what? Are you gonna drive me off a cliff too? You might have them all fooled, thomas, but not me. Your father, your sister, I mean, even hope, they’ve all bought into this new and improved thomas, but I see right through it. I see the anger in your eyes and the hostility and this obsession that you call love. You still have issues, thomas. Serious issues. And you play it off as the good designer, the good father, the good boyfriend, but you are a bad person and hope is a decent, wonderful woman who is too good for you. And as long as I live and breathe, you will never be with hope. Ever.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Steffy: I still can’t believe it. I mean, what are the odds that he chooses you as his doctor? In all of L.A.? Do you think he came back here to stir up trouble?

Finn: For thomas.

Steffy: Well, could you think of another reason that he’d bring up emma’s death? Accuse my brother of murder?

Finn: I actually kinda had to pull it out of the guy.

Steffy: Well, when you did, xander didn’t hold back, right? He said that my brother is responsible for emma’s death. But he wasn’t, finn.

Thomas: Sure you don’t wanna change your mind? You’re allowed to reconsider. But not this time.

Hope: I’m sorry.

Thomas: No, I’m not. At least you didn’t throw the ring in my face. I’m serious! I just wanna be with you, so I can wait.

Rj: Hey, luna, can you hand me that sketch? Luna?

Luna: What? Oh. Sorry, I was just thinking about my mom.

Rj: Well, what are you– are you thinking about how the date’s going?

Luna: Look, I realize that bill spencer is not your favorite person.

Rj: Yeah, that’s– that’s putting it mildly.

Luna: Okay. But, my mom hasn’t had a man in her life in a really long time. So, who knows? Maybe bill could be the one.

Rj: The one?

Luna: Who changes her life forever.

Bill: I’m right, aren’t I?

Poppy: About what?

Bill: San francisco. Golden gate music fest. I realize it was a long time ago.

Poppy: Yes, bill. I remember. It was a wonderful night. One that I haven’t forgotten. Or ever will.

Rj: Wow. So, you’re expecting a lot from a first date.

Luna: No. It’s only if bill really does turn out to be the one.

Rj: The– the one who sweeps her mom off her feet?

Luna: Yeah. I mean, stranger things have happened.

Rj: Yeah. Especially when bill spencer’s involved.

Luna: Wait. What do you mean?

Rj: Let’s– let’s just say that he has quite, uh… a history with the ladies.

Luna: Should– should I be worried? Should my mom be?

Bill: I don’t know. I mean, I think that she can handle herself, but I don’t know her that well, so.

Luna: When it comes to my mom and men, I’ve always felt bad that my dad was never in the picture. I mean, not just for me, but… for my mom as well.

Bill: Thank you. So, you do realize I’ve got a million questions.

Poppy: That many?

Bill: All right. Maybe half a million. What’s that?

Poppy: Fortification. For all the intense questioning.

Bill: This is a date, all right? It’s not gonna be a cross examination.

Poppy: I’m joking. Hey, but this is all natural. It is guaranteed to put a smile on my face.

Bill: Fair enough.

Poppy: Can i admit something?

Bill: Sure.

Poppy: I was a little nervous about this date of ours and this will just take the edge off a little, much like your scotch.

Bill: So, back to that night all those years ago.

Poppy: Hm.

Bill: A chance encounter that turned into something more.

Poppy: Well, I don’t wanna put you on the spot, but I never heard from you again. You never called.

Bill: I meant to. I really did. It’s just that… after the festival, it was– it was back to work. Uh, at that time of my life, I was all about building my company into what it is today. You might even call it an obsession. I had no room in my life for anything else. And if that’s– that’s a lame excuse, I know.

Poppy: No, it isn’T. You had a life to live and so did I.

Bill: You’re very sweet to let me off the hook, but I am sorry, poppy. More than you know.

Thomas: You may not be wearing the engagement ring on your finger, but I think it’s wonderful right where it is, next to your heart. It’s kinda where it belongs. And in the mean time, I’ll keep reminding you how happy I can make you.

Hope: I am happy.

Thomas: I know, yeah. I am too, but think about how much happier we’ll be if we were like husband and wife and stuff. I’m not gonna push. I’m sorry. I’m not pushing. Uh, I know that you are not ready to marry me. Yet.

Steffy: Thomas is my brother. You need to support him.

Finn: Baby, I want to, but we can’t just ignore xander’s accusation.

Steffy: Xander isn’t as innocent as you think. He was part of the whole baby beth lie.

Finn: So, you think he’s making his accusations against thomas as payback?

Steffy: That’s exactly what I think. Look, what happened to emma, it was awful, but that accident wasn’t because of my brother.

Finn: So, you believe your brother?

Steffy: Yes. And the police.

Finn: Police?

Steffy: Xander went to the police and the police determined that it was reckless driving. It wasn’t thomas’ fault. Look, I didn’t say anything to you because there was already so many things stacked up against thomas in the past, but thomas didn’t do what xander said. You’re my husband, finn. You need to understand that.

Luna: I think bill seems like a nice enough guy. I know, I know. I know you’re not the biggest fan of him, but he is very successful and larger than life.

Rj: Is that your mom’s type?

Luna: I don’t know what my mom’s type is actually, but if bill and my mom’s paths really did cross years ago like bill thinks, I don’t know. Maybe he is her type after all.

Bill: Li never told you.

Poppy: You saved her from this horrible sheila woman? No, I had no idea. I mean, that’s amazing. My family and I owe you a lot.

Bill: Oh, no, no, no. You don’t owe me at all. The fact is, I owe you an apology. Look, I– I meant what I said. The impact you had on me all those years ago… and– and look at you. That same glowing, effervescent, free-spirited beauty. If I picked up the phone back then, who knows how different our lives could’ve been.

Thomas: I’m sorry that my proposal caught you off guard.

Hope: I hate to disappoint you.

Thomas: You didn’t disappoint me. I get it. You just– you couldn’t accept. You’re not ready to commit to me or to anyone. That’s okay. But when you are, and in the meantime, you’ll know, you’ll always know, that you are the only woman for me.

Steffy: You’re worried about my brother? Well, so am I. But not about what xander said. I’m worried that hope is using him. And if she ends it with thomas, like this could be really devastating for him.

Finn: Yeah, I agree. It could be a breaking point, but as concerned as I am for thomas, I mean, I’m even more concerned for hope. I– I’m sorry, honey, but I still think that thomas has issues. Hope needs to be protected.

Steffy: So, you’re taking hope’s side?

Finn: I’m not taking anyone’s side. Yes, thomas is family. He’s your brother. But, that doesn’t negate or forgive him for what he did to hope. Keeping baby beth from her, perpetuating the lie that she died during child birth. These are cruel things.

Steffy: So many people suffered. Hope suffered. I suffered. Yes, I adopted a child, not knowing it was hope’s baby.

Finn: Yes, exactly. He put you through hell because he didn’t come forward and tell you what he knew. And now, these accusations from xander–

Steffy: That’s exactly what they are. They are accusations. That’s all they are. He’s just trying to get back at thomas because he got axed from forrester, from our family, from thomas.

Finn: He’s convinced that thomas is responsible for emma barber’s death.

Steffy: That is not true. It was a tragic accident. I– I– I can’t believe we’re talking about this again.

Finn: No one in your family mentions it.

Steffy: It doesn’t mean we’re not haunted by it. Look, what happened to emma, it was terrible, but it was an accident. I will tell you it again, thomas is not to blame. It wasn’t his fault. So, drop it, okay? Please, baby, just drop it. I can’T. Woma

Rj: It must’ve been hard growing up without a father. I mean, you said that’s all you’ve ever known, right?

Luna: Yeah, it’s always just my mom and me. I mean, it’s not like my dad was in my life and he walked out on us, never to return.

Rj: Can’t miss what you’ve never known.

Luna: Yeah. Something like that. Though, I do have to confess, when I was younger, I did think about him a lot. Like, who he was.

Rj: Has poppy ever talked about him? Mentioned a name? Nothing?

Luna: Nope. All she’s ever said was that I was made from love.

Bill: So, I was doing a little poking around the forrester creations website.

Poppy: Hm?

Bill: Very impressed with luna.

Poppy: Thank you. I’m really proud of her.

Bill: Well, you should be. She’s making the most of her internship and that speaks well of her.

Poppy: Luna adores fashion. You know, it’s been her dream ever since she was little. To be a part of that world. She worked really hard to get there.

Bill: Well, they’re lucky to have her.

Poppy: Well, I’m just thrilled that she’s happy. Especially since she didn’t have the easiest childhood.

Bill: How’s that?

Poppy: Well, her father wasn’t in her life.

Bill: Oh. I– I’m sorry to hear that. Guy’s gotta be a total jerk.

Poppy: No, he isn’T. He never knew I was pregnant.

Bill: So, luna has no idea who her father is?

Poppy: Mm-mm. Nope.

Bill: But you do?

Poppy: All right. You’re getting kind of personal. We haven’t seen each other in 20 years.

Bill: Ah, I’m sorry. I don’t mean to pry. It’s just that, luna is really exceptional. Any man would be proud to call her his daughter.

Thomas: Hope for the future put on hold didn’t slow me down. What do you think?

Steffy: I think it’s nice.

Thomas: It’s nice. That’s all you have to say? Really?

Steffy: Actually, I have a lot more to say.

Thomas: Oh, no. This isn’t about hope and me, is it?

Steffy: No. It’s about xander. Xander avant.

Hope: Hi. I got your text. You wanted to see me?

Finn: Yeah. Thanks for coming.

Hope: So, I’m going to guess that this is about thomas.

Finn: Yeah. I’m worried more than ever about your involvement with him.

Luna: Imagine, bill spencer, a man from my mom’s past, could possibly be her future. I mean, wouldn’t that be surprising?

Rj: Anything is possible, I suppose.

Luna: Look, I’m not trying to play matchmaker, but if something really came of this and they really hit it off and somehow got involved?

Rj: Luna, it’s their first date and you’re hearing wedding bells. Come on.

Luna: No, no. Stop. Stop. I guess it’s just the romantic in me, but.

Rj: Ah.

Luna: I love happy endings and maybe, bill spencer could be the one to give my mom one, after all this time.

Bill: You are a very beautiful woman.

Poppy: Thank you.

Bill: As beautiful now as you were then. I just remember watching you dancing to the music and you were just so into it. I mean, the look on your face, the way your– your body moved, just so free and uninhibited. It was like nothing else mattered but that moment in time.

Poppy: My life was so different back then. I was so carefree, before I became a mother.

Bill: I still can’t believe you have a daughter luna’s age. I swear, I never forgot about you. In case you’re wondering, I would really like to see you again, poppy.

Thomas: Wow, talk about a small world in a very large city. Wasn’t xander in london?

Steffy: He was in london. Now, he’s back in L.A. He showed up at finn’s office and he freaked out when he found out that I was his wife.

Thomas: Oh, wow. I mean, I guess there’s no surprise there. His tenure at forrester didn’t exactly end well. Dad let him go.

Steffy: Yeah, part of that was because of the whole baby beth lie.

Thomas: Okay, so why are you bringing this up? So, finn saw xander as a patient. It’s no big deal.

Steffy: It is a big deal, thomas. He and emma were close and he hasn’t forgotten about what happened on mulholland. You and I know what happened to emma, it was an accident, but xander doesn’t think that. He told finn that he thinks you’re responsible for emma’s death.

Hope: While I appreciate the concern, finn, it is misplaced. There is nothing to worry about with thomas, as I have told steffy, as I have told everyone else over and over and–

Finn: I realize that and while steffy’s worried about her brother, I’m worried about you.

Hope: Okay, well, that’s– that’s sweet, but it’s unnecessary. I mean, I know better than anyone how much thomas has changed, so.

Finn: Are you sure about that, hope? Because I learned something pretty shocking today.

Hope: About thomas?

Finn: I, um, I saw a new patient and when he saw our wedding photo, he– he freaked out and he couldn’t believe that I was married to steffy forrester.

Hope: Well, I am sure that that was just a mistake or that he’s a fan. I mean, steffy has many fans.

Finn: No, he is not– he is not– he’s definitely not a fan. He’s a former employee of forrester. Does the name xander avant ring any bells?

Hope: You saw xander?

Finn: Yeah, and he made a pretty shocking statement. And I– I told steffy and she seemed to already know and I’m sensing that you do too. And yeah, it goes all the way back to one of the darkest chapters of your life, when your baby was stolen and you and liam thought that she was dead, and look– look, I’m really sorry to be– I’m bringing all this up, but I really wish I didn’t have to. I wish I could just forget what xander told me, but given the things thomas has done in the past… and look, I mean, steffy, she– she believes in thomas. He’s her brother, after all, but when xander accuses thomas of murder, now do you understand why I’m so concerned about you?

Steffy: I don’t know what Xander Avant tried to tell you, but I think he’s wrong.

Finn: He– he accused your brother of murder. She was a Forrester intern. Emma Barber.

Steffy: What?

Finn: Wait, do you know about this?

Steffy: I knew that Emma died in a car accident, Finn. It wasn’t murder.

Finn: Well, Xander seems pretty convinced.

Steffy: Oh, my God.

Finn: What aren’t you telling me?

Steffy: Well–

Finn: No, look, I– I understand that Thomas has done a lot of terrible things in the past and even I wouldn’t have thought… murder. Is your brother more dangerous than I realized?

Thomas: You may not be able to wear this ring on your finger just yet. But in the meantime, it’s exactly where it belongs. Right next to your heart.

Hope: Maybe… someday I will say yes. But right now, I just… I’m not ready for that level of commitment, and… I hope you can understand.

Liam: So here’s what I don’t understand… all the restaurants in L.A… Why do you put yourself in a position to run into Sheila?

Bill: Because I want that degenerate to know that I’m keeping tabs on her. Dollar Bill is always watching, just waiting for her to slip up.

Liam: Oh. Nice. Well, it seems like you’re out of luck today because Hollis said that she and Deacon won’t be in, so…

Bill: I’ll give her twice as much grief next time.

Liam: [ Chuckling ] Fair enough.

Bill: Thank you.

Liam: Uh, thank you. So, uh, you… you in a rush or something?

Bill: No. Why?

Liam: Because you specifically invited me to drinks, and not dinner, and I’m a little hurt, and I was wondering why.

Bill: Well, you’re gonna be more hurt. I’m kicking you out after.

Liam: Well, what, why, what the hell? What did I do?

Bill: All right, hey, Dad has a date.

Liam: You– you have, you got a– is it anyone I know?

Bill: Not directly, but you do know her nephew who happens to be married to Steffy.

Luna: Mom, this is so exciting. You haven’t been on a date in so long.

Poppy: I know. I’m so out of practice, Luna. Okay. It’s probably just best if I cancel.

Luna: No, no, you can’t do that.

R.J.: Whoa, what’s going on? What are you cancelling?

Luna: Ah, my mom is going on a date with a certain publishing tycoon.

R.J.: No. Is it…

Luna: Yeah, Bill Spencer asked her out.

R.J.: All right. This is my humble opinion. Okay? You shouldn’t walk away from this. You should run, you should run as fast as you possibly can.

R.J.: Did I say that out loud? I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to. It’s just that I’m not exactly a huge Bill Spencer fan.

Luna: Yeah. Well, shouldn’t my mom get a chance to form her own opinion?

R.J.: Yes. Sure.

Luna: Yes, and the best way to do that is to meet up with him.

R.J.: Okay, but question, how did he get your number?

Poppy: He just tracked me down somehow.

Luna: Okay. So, Bill thinks that they might have met years ago and he just wants to get to know her better. I think it’s sweet. Mom, come, come on, you gotta go on this date, please. Seriously. What do you have to lose?

Bill: Remember me telling you about the woman I met here a few weeks ago?

Liam: Yes. The one you thought you recognized?

Bill: Yeah, I couldn’t shake this feeling that we’d met before. Well, now I’m certain of it. Anyway, she is Finn’s aunt. Her name is Poppy. And I’m looking forward to getting to know her better.

Thomas: I’m not gonna lie. I am disappointed. Not– not that I should be disappointed. I mean, obviously, this proposal, it… caught you off guard. Came out of the blue.

Hope: But it– it was beautiful though, Thomas. I mean, everything you said, and this ring is…

Thomas: Yeah, but you need more time and I understand. And like I said before, uh… it feels like I’ve waited my entire life to be with you. I can wait a little longer.

Finn: Tell me, Steffy, what’s really going on? Is your brother more dangerous than I realized?

Steffy: No. Like you said, my brother has made some terrible choices in the past, things that he regrets, but not murder.

Finn: Yeah, but you don’t seem surprised Xander would think it.

Steffy: Look, there are some things about Xander that you don’t understand. And once I tell you the whole story, I think you’ll realize why he made that accusation.

Poppy: I don’t know, Luna. I mean, this just all seems a bit silly. Getting back into the dating scene?

Luna: What scene? It’s one date with one guy. That’s all there is to it.

Poppy: Okay. True. But is this the one date the one guy that I should be seeing? I mean, R.J. doesn’t seem to like him. Right? That can’t be a good sign.

R.J.: Well, may– maybe she’ll have better luck with him than anyone in my family ever has.

Poppy: None of you like Bill?

R.J.: Um, my– my cousin Will likes him. But he kind of has to like him because he’s his dad, so…

Luna: Oh, my god. Go, please go enjoy yourself. And I don’t know, maybe think of it as like a little mystery to solve.

Poppy: Mystery?

Luna: Yeah, I mean, he said that you guys have met before, and maybe it’s true. So just try to figure it out together. You know, talk about where you’ve lived. The places you’ve been. Who knows? It might be true. You guys really have crossed paths before.

Poppy: All right. All right.

Luna: You’ll go?

Poppy: Yes. I mean, it would be rude to cancel at this point.

Luna: I hope you two figure it out, whatever it is that connects you.

Liam: Thank you.

Bill: Thanks.

Liam: So… [ Chuckles ] The history that you think you share with Finn’s aunt. Tell me her name again.

Bill: Poppy.

Liam: Poppy. Was it…? Uh… did you– did you two…?

Bill: Hey, I don’t kiss and tell.

Liam: Oh, you don’t kiss…

Bill: Sometimes I do. I’m not kissing and telling now.

Liam: All right.

Bill: Now get out of here. Scram.

Liam: I’m going. I know. I knew you were gonna say that. I don’t want to be here anyway. Listen, good luck to you. And, um… I know that your– your love life lately has been less than you deserve. So… I hope this mystery woman brings something new. Maybe even something special to your life.

Bill: Thank you, son.

Liam: See you.

Thomas: I gotta admit, I was feeling a little hopeful about this. I had this image of you taking the ring and sliding it on your finger and this huge ear to ear grin. All this joy on your face.

Hope: Thomas.

Thomas: Yeah, but you’re not ready yet. And I get that. I do. And I’m happy. It’s right there next to your heart.

Hope: Well, for now. But I do think we should, um, maybe keep this proposal between the two of us. At least until I figure myself out. Besides I was just talking to your dad and your sister about how our relationship should, uh, you know, just stay between the two of us.

Thomas: Yeah. Also your mom would freak.

[ Both chuckling ]

Hope: Yeah, I could think of a few people that wouldn’t be too thrilled about this.

Thomas: Hm. That includes Dr. Finn, Mr. Medicine Man. I don’t think he’s, uh, too fond of me.

Steffy: This is so weird. Xander Avant, randomly your patient. I didn’t even know he was back in Los Angeles.

Finn: I’m pretty sure he’s not gonna be my patient. He didn’t exactly react well to seeing your picture and learning that Thomas is my brother-in-law. Okay. So… you said Xander was involved with what happened with Beth?

Steffy: Not initially, he got pulled into it and then when he learned that Beth was alive… he wanted to tell the truth.

Finn: Oh, let me guess. Your brother told him not to.

Steffy: According to Xander, Thomas threatened him.

Finn: Threatened?

Steffy: We don’t know if that’s true or not, which… the state of mind my brother was in back then, yeah, it probably is true. And that’s–

Finn: Wait, so you’re saying that Xander’s making these accusations, claiming Thomas killed someone as payback?

Luna: Look, I know you’re not the biggest fan of Bill.

R.J.: That’s an understatement.

Luna: Okay. But I’m happy for my mom. Okay? She deserves some attention.

R.J.: Yeah, but it’s negative attention because I know Bill– Bill, he can be… okay. I’ll stop. All right. I– I genuinely hope she has a great time. I really do.

Luna: Yeah, me too.

R.J.: It’s adorable, how much you care about your mom.

Luna: Well, yeah, obviously. I mean, my mom sacrificed so much for me, just… raising me on her own. I often think about how different my life would have been if my father stayed in the picture. Whoever he is.

Bill: Poppy. Thank you for agreeing to join me.

Poppy: Well, after you went to the trouble of finding me.

Bill: How could I not? I couldn’t stop thinking about you. This feeling that we’ve met before, now I’m certain of it. It was years ago. But there’s not a doubt in my mind.

Hope: Why would you… think that about Finn?

Thomas: Yeah. You know, I was speaking to Steffy earlier and I was asking her to support us and our relationship. Um, and I– and I said, if– if she can’t do that, to at least not undermine us.

Hope: Okay.

Thomas: And then Finn came in and warned me not to speak like that to my sister.

Hope: Oh, okay. Yikes.

Thomas: I know. Look, I– I– I’m glad that Finn is protective of Steffy, but… I don’t know. I guess for a long time I’ve kind of wondered what Finn thought of me and now he’s making it abundantly clear.

Finn: You know how I feel. I know you can do better than Thomas.

Steffy: Look, it is possible that Xander is trying to get back at Thomas? Make him suffer a bit? But this, this is really irritating. Like spreading lies that he killed Emma, especially after all of this time? I feel terrible about what happened to Emma. She had her whole life ahead of her. It was a tragic accident. She lost control of her car, Finn. She drove off Mulholland; she took the turns too quickly. It wasn’t murder. Thomas did not murder her. So, can you please just get that out of your mind, please? Because I don’t wanna think about this anymore. I really don’t. I really don’t. It was just so much pain and I don’t… no, I don’t wanna talk about it. Xander’s wrong. So, let’s leave it at that.

R.J.: I know it must be strange, never knowing–

Luna: Who my dad is? Yeah. It’s strange. But, I don’t know. It’s also kind of normal. I mean, it’s all I’ve ever known, so… do I wish that he stuck around when I was a kid? Yeah. Sure. But not even for my sake. But more so for my mom. Sometimes, I can’t help but wonder how different her life would have been if he just manned up and made a commitment.

Poppy: I’m curious, what makes you so certain?

Bill: You promise you won’t think I’m a stalker?

Poppy: Well, that depends on what you say next.

Bill: All right. Fair enough. I did a little digging.

Poppy: Into?

Bill: Into you. Your life, your beautiful daughter, Luna. I was looking at pictures of you online. And it all started coming back to me. You really don’t remember?

Poppy: Remember what?

Bill: The Golden Gate Music Fest? Over 20 years ago? You were dancing. So free, so beautiful. Every guy noticing you, including me. I know it was you. You made eye contact. We danced. We talked for hours. It was a very memorable evening. At least it was for me. I haven’t forgotten. And something tells me you haven’t either.

Hope: Try not to worry. Finn is just… concerned about his wife. And as long as you keep showing that you’ve changed. And prove yourself to be the kind, generous, thoughtful man that you are. He’ll come around. Everyone will.

Thomas: Well. There’s only one person that needs to come around. And she already has. It’s you. Um, I believe in us, Hope. I love what we’re building together. And since you didn’t take that ring and throw it in my face, I think that means maybe you feel a little bit like the same. I think we can have a wonderful life together. And think about how ecstatic Douglas would be, right? Take your time. Okay? I’m not going anywhere. My eye will never wander to another woman. Because for me, it’s only you, Hope. Only you.

Steffy: I realize you’ve been concerned about Thomas. So hearing this from Xander is probably the last thing you needed.

Finn: Definitely not something I wanted to find out about my brother-in-law.

Steffy: But I believe in him, Finn. The good man he is.

Finn: The man he’s trying to be now. But back then, Thomas was deeply troubled. I mean, what he put Hope through to try and be a part of her life? Allowing her to think her baby was dead? Then having his own sister fall in love with a child that he knew belonged to someone else?

Steffy: Yeah. It was a horrific time. It took me a very long time to come to a place where I could finally forgive him. And once I realized that he was obsessed with Hope, truly obsessed with her–

Finn: This goes way beyond obsessive behavior, honey. And I look– I’m not gonna presume to diagnose him, but… there was something seriously wrong back then. And no matter how hard he tries to be a better man and the hours and hours of therapy. I just… we need to be cautious around your brother. And– and if you wanna believe in him, I support that. But please, after learning this from Xander, whether it’s unfounded or not. I just– I think… we need to keep our eyes very open.

Steffy: You’re right. I get it and I will. That’s why I’ve been so concerned about Thomas having a relationship with hope. Look, I do believe that he’s healed. I believe that he’s not obsessed with her anymore, but it takes that one thing to just trigger him and I worry about that. I worry about what will happen if… Hope lets him down.

[ Dramatic music ]

Xander: I know it sounds crazy and I’m sure you don’t want to believe that your brother-in-law is capable of something like this, but Thomas, he’s– he’s not a good guy. You should be very careful with him.

Finn: Thomas? You’re saying Thomas murdered somebody?

Thomas: Will you marry me? Will you make me the luckiest man in the world? Say yes, Hope. Say you’ll marry me. Say that you will be my wife.

Steffy: I’m telling you. Hope isn’t taking it seriously.

Ridge: Well, she didn’t talk to me about that. She just said that her relationship with Thomas is private. And it is. I mean, they’re grown-ups, right?

Steffy: It’s private because she wants to hide it from us, Dad.

Ridge: She’s not hiding it from anybody.

Steffy: She’s using Thomas as a hook up. She and Liam just split.

Ridge: I don’t think your brother sees it that way.

Steffy: Hope has no intention of getting serious with Thomas.

Brooke: Let’s hope you’re right.

Ridge: How was your meeting?

Brooke: It went well. Everybody was so kind about sending their regards for Eric.

Steffy: It’s really incredible watching the entire fashion world cheer on Granddad.

Ridge: Well, it makes sense. He’s the man.

Brooke: He is. So, how is he today? Any news?

Ridge: Well, the doctor said he’s getting better all the time. He’s meeting his markers.

Brooke: Good. I’m glad to hear that. And I’m glad to hear that Steffy and I are on the same page.

Ridge: About what?

Brooke: About Hope. I mean, she can’t possibly be considering a future with Thomas.

Thomas: So, what do you think, Hope? Will you marry me?

Hope: Thomas, I– I’m, um, I’m speechless. I don’t even know what to say. I– it’s– it’s so unexpected. Um…

Thomas: Is it really, though? You know how much I care about you. You know how devoted I am to you. And that I always will be. To you, and to only you. All you have to do is say yes.

Finn: Thomas is a murderer? That’s what you’re telling me? All right, look. My uh, my brother-in-law is a lot of things, but, uh, a killer?

Xander: I probably shouldn’t have said anything, but once we started talking about Thomas, I just– but I thought you should know.

Finn: Okay, look, I just met you, okay? Is that it? You came in for an exam.

Xander: I know, but I promise, I had no idea who you were when I booked the appointment.

Finn: I understand that. Okay. But this accusation? Just I… okay, you– you’re saying that you worked at Forrester Creations with my wife.

Xander: Yes, several years ago, but I had no idea you were married to Steffy.

Finn: And–and now you’re implying that Thomas took someone’s life?

Xander: Emma Barber. She was totally innocent. She didn’t deserve what Thomas did to her.

[ Car skidding and crashing ]

Xander: It wasn’t an accident, Zoe.

Brooke: I am not only trying to protect my daughter. I’m looking out for Thomas as well.

Ridge: Hm. Because it doesn’t always come across that way, my love.

Brooke: Okay. I’m sorry. I– I do care about Thomas, but Hope is like a drug to him and he’s got to stay away.

Steffy: I agree with Brooke. Hope is Thomas’s kryptonite. Look, I’m impressed with Thomas, all the steps he’s made, with Douglas, with work, but his relationship with Hope could cause some real problems.

Ridge: Or– or maybe it won’t cause a problem. Where’s all the– the faith you guys keep talking about? That you walk in with. Where is it?

Brooke: I don’t have much of that when it comes to Hope being with Thomas.

Steffy: Yeah, neither do I. And if I suspect what I think she’ll do, if she ends it with Thomas, he’s going to be heartbroken.

Ridge: I don’t want things to end that way either, but if it does, that doesn’t mean that Thomas is gonna crack.

Brooke: We’ve seen him crack before.

Ridge: He’s not the same guy. He’s not weak anymore. He’s just– can you just give him some credit, please?

Steffy: I just don’t want this to be the thing that sets him back. Either Hope is fully with him, which I know she doesn’t want that, or she needs to end it with him. Because I don’t want Thomas to put his heart further on the line. I don’t want her playing with his emotions.

Thomas: You have my whole heart. I want you to be my wife, my forever.

Hope: Thomas, I, um… well, you– you are so incredible. I mean, the ring, it’s– it’s gorgeous. And you’re so sweet to do this for me.

Thomas: Not just for you. For us, for our child, for our life together.

Hope: Yeah, I had no idea that you had any of this– any of this planned.

Thomas: Wow. Really? I mean, okay. Well, you– you’re not the easiest person to surprise, okay? And I have had this ring for a while. And I’ve been trying to find the right moment and I know that this isn’t exactly the most ideal location. Being here at work, surrounded by dresses and whatnot, but we have had some of our most incredible memories here.

Hope: Um, Thomas, you are so, so thoughtful and you always make me feel special and it’s in the way you value me. The way you’ve put me first. I’ve never had that before. I can’t tell you how nice it is not to have to question your commitment or your loyalty and I know I know how deep your love is for me.

Thomas: So, that’s a yes? You’ll be my wife?

Hope: Thomas, I can’t accept your proposal. I can’t make that level of commitment to you or to anyone right now.

[ Thomas sighing ]

Finn: I know what Thomas is capable of. I’m not naive, okay? I’ve heard all the stories.

Xander: Yeah, well, every story you’ve heard is true.

Finn: But ending someone’s life?

Xander: Look, if Thomas can hide a baby from her parents, you don’t think he’s capable of doing more? You know what? Um, I should go. Like I said before, I’m sorry that I wasted your time, but you can’t be my doctor.

Finn: Because Thomas is my brother-in-law?

Xander: Look, believe me or don’t believe me, okay? That’s your call. But all I know is that Emma was a– a sweet, beautiful young woman and everybody loved her. She was– she was kind and– and smart and a talented young dancer and she had her whole life ahead of her. And now she’s gone.

Finn: May I ask how she died?

Xander: Yeah, it was a car crash. Mulholland Drive.

Finn: And– and you think that Thomas is responsible?

Xander: I don’t think he’s responsible. I know he is.

Brooke: I didn’t mean to upset you about Thomas.

Ridge: I’m not upset. I just thought we’d moved past this.

Brooke: Yeah, I thought so, too, but then our children started dating.

Ridge: And now what? All bets are off? You sound like my mother right now when we started dating.

Brooke: Yeah, I suppose I do, but you were nothing like Thomas.

Ridge: I wasn’t perfect.

Brooke: Me, neither. And I’m still not.

Ridge: Pretty damn close, if you ask me.

Brooke: I don’t want this to cause a rift between us.

Ridge: It won’t. I see what you’re doing. I know you mean well.

Brooke: I’m not being selfish. Of course, I’m looking out for my daughter, but I’m also trying to protect Thomas.

Ridge: I know that. And I believe you. And you gotta believe me when I tell you that I think Thomas is so much better than he was. And maybe the two of them together, maybe that’s not the worst thing. Maybe… okay. Maybe this is their destiny. Can I say that?

Brooke: No.

Ridge: But think about it. My mom, she never thought that we would be together. She said we were horrible for each other and now look at us.

Brooke: Well, that’s true. We’re better than ever.

Ridge: Yeah.

Brooke: Yeah.

Ridge: They may have to navigate some rough waters and maybe they have to as well, but my son adores your daughter and maybe she likes that. Maybe they should be together.

Hope: Don’t get me wrong, Thomas. I am so touched by your expression of love and the fact that you’d want to spend the rest of your life with me. Because I love spending time with you and with Douglas. Right here in this office, working together and– and our time alone together. Every moment with you is magical. I just– I am not ready yet for that level of commitment. I mean, I’m still trying to find closure at the end of my marriage to Liam. I wanna make sure that Beth is in a good place and I still wanna give myself space to figure out what I need and who I am and what I think my future looks like. And I am, I’m so sorry. I’m just– I’m not ready yet for this, Thomas. I hope you understand.

Thomas: It’s okay. You don’t have to apologize. I do understand. But I don’t want this ring. It belongs with you.

Hope: What? What are you doing?

Thomas: Until you’re ready to put this ring on your finger, we should keep it here where it belongs. Right next to your heart.

Finn: Thanks for coming over.

Steffy: Well, I’ll drive anywhere to get a kiss from you.

Finn: I could really use it after today.

Steffy: Rough day?

Finn: Yeah, you could, um, you could say that.

Steffy: Difficult patient?

Finn: This guy came in and that’s– that’s why I texted you. Says that he knows you.

Steffy: Me?

Finn: Yeah, and you must know him.

Steffy: What? Is it like someone I dated before or something?

Finn: No, no, it’s not.

Steffy: Well, what’s his name?

Finn: Uh, Xander Avant.

Steffy: Xander Avant? Wait, he was– he was here in your office? I– I didn’t even know he was back in Los Angeles.

Finn: Apparently, he’s back in from London.

Steffy: Huh.

Finn: And he said that he worked at Forrester Creations as an intern.

Steffy: Yeah. Yeah, he was– he was fired. So, what did he– did he know who you are?

Finn: No, no, not initially. He just– he came in for a physical, but he kind of freaked out when he saw that picture of us. And realized that we were married and that Thomas was my brother-in-law. I don’t know. It was– it was weird and I don’t really know how to take it, but Xander made a very serious accusation against your brother.

Ridge: You’re not alone. I was concerned about their involvement as well.

Brooke: I know. I remember that.

Ridge: But sometimes, you gotta just stop fighting. Right? What’s the point?

Brooke: Ridge, what if it just blows up in their faces?

Ridge: So, what if it does? They’re not kids, they know what they’re doing. They– they’re being honest with each other. And I think Thomas knows that this might be as far as it’s gonna go.

Brooke: I don’t think that he’s prepared to accept that.

Ridge: I think he has accepted it, but what about Hope? What if she falls for him? The two of them together wouldn’t be the worst thing.

Brooke: No. No, I just don’t see that happening. Deep down, I don’t think that Hope will ever be able to commit to Thomas.

Hope: Thomas, this is such a beautiful gesture and…

Thomas: Only the best for you. Hey, I don’t want you to feel any pressure. I believe in us. And I believe that ring will be on your finger. I know it because of our love. I can feel it. I feel our love every time we’re together. Working together. When you’re saying my name. In the bedroom. I can feel it all the time. I just have to wait. Hey, I have waited for years already. I can wait a little longer.

Steffy: What else did Xander say?

Finn: He was surprised I didn’t know who he was.

Steffy: Did he tell you he got caught up in the whole secret about baby Beth?

Finn: No.

Steffy: Yeah, he was one of the ones who knew and didn’t say anything. That’s why we had to let him go.

Finn: Geez, I’m– I’m sorry. I– I know that’s a…

Steffy: I just– I don’t– I don’t like thinking about it. So many lies and so many lives turned upside down. Especially Hope and Liam.

Finn: I mean, and– and you. Raising the little girl you adopted, not realizing it was actually Beth, Hope and Liam’s child they thought was stillborn.

Steffy: Yeah, like I said, I– I don’t like to– to think about that. It was a really terrible chapter in my life. And so many people were hurt.

Finn: And your brother was at the center of it.

Steffy: Yeah. But he says it– it was his biggest regret and it still haunts him to this day. I mean, allowing Hope to continue to believe that Beth was– that Beth was dead. And he knew that she was alive and I was raising her as Phoebe. It was terrible. But Thomas isn’t like that anymore, okay? He’s grown. He’s changed. I mean, so much so that even Hope has miraculously forgiven him.

Finn: Yeah, that’s– that’s a miracle, all right?

Steffy: Yeah.

Finn: Look, I am still unclear about Thomas. And I know he says it’s not an act, but maybe he hasn’t changed as much as everyone thinks. No, look– look at the moment when I walked in on you guys at the office earlier. He’s laying down the law. Threatening you.

Steffy: No, he– he wasn’t threatening me. Yes, he was fired up.

Finn: Fired up? Steffy, he was in your face telling you what you can and cannot do.

Steffy: He’s my brother. I can handle it. Look, you still haven’t told me why Xander was here. Did he accuse Thomas of something?

Finn: Yeah.

Steffy: Well, what?

Finn: I don’t know how to tell you this Steffy, but Xander accused Thomas of murder.

Thomas: My sister’s just forcing the issue and she needs to back off.

Steffy: He just got a little worked up. He needs some time to cool off.

Thomas: If you have a problem with my relationship, you should keep it to yourself.

Finn: Or what, thomas? What are you gonna do?

Thomas: You know what, finn? This really doesn’t involve you.

Finn: See, when you speak to my wife that way, it does. I don’t stand for that.

[ Phone chiming ] A new patient at the office.

Thomas: You probably shouldn’t keep them waiting.

Finn: Are you okay?

Steffy: Yeah, I’m fine. I can handle it. Thank you. See you in a bit.

Hope: I understand that steffy just wants to protect her brother.

Ridge: And you understand why she might be concerned.

Hope: But steffy has nothing to worry about. My mom has nothing to worry about. You have nothing to worry about.

Ridge: But I do have something to worry about. I do worry. So, let me ask you a simple question: Do you see a future with my son?

Hope: All right, like father, like daughter. I guess I’m in the hot seat with you now, huh.

Ridge: Nah, I’m just asking a question.

Hope: What my intentions are?

Ridge: Yeah. Are you serious about my son? Because he’s serious about you and the last time he was serious about you, it caused a lot of problems for my family and for yours. And I would hate for history to repeat itself.

Steffy: Thank you, ahn. Yes, it is. It is wonderful news. Yeah, we’re very grateful that granddad is getting better. Mm-hmm. Yes, of course. We’ll talk to you soon. All right, bye bye.

Thomas: Silk supplier?

Steffy: Yeah. Granddad’s recovery is being celebrated all over the world.

Thomas: And hopefully, we’ll have even more to celebrate soon.

Steffy: But we still need to be patient. Granddad just got off the ventilator, so he has a long road ahead.

Thomas: Yeah, you know, it’s really amazing that that granddad has all this help and support around him.

Steffy: Yeah.

Thomas: From his friends and his family. You know, maybe you could take some of that care and concern that you have for me and my relationship with hope and focus is it on granddad instead.

Steffy: Okay.

Thomas: And if you could, just to be helpful, pass that message along to your husband, you know, the good doctor?

Steffy: Ha.

[ Knock on door ]

Finn: Come in.

Woman: Dr. Finnegan, your patient’s here.

Finn: All right. Right on time. Uh, xander… avant?

Xander: That’s right.

Finn: Right. I’m dr. Finnegan. Nice to meet you.

Hope: I’m telling you, everything is fine and there is nothing to worry about, but I– I don’t understand why people refuse to believe me.

Ridge: Everything is fine. You’re living in the moment right now. What happens after that?

Hope: We love being with each other. Why can’t that be enough?

Ridge: So, you don’t think it’s gonna last?

Hope: I did not say that.

Ridge: So, you think it will?

Hope: Are– are you asking me to give you a guarantee? To be completely certain, ridge? Because I– I can’t give you that. I thought I was going to be with liam for the rest of my life and I’m not. I don’t have a crystal ball. I don’t know what the future holds.

Ridge: Well, thomas thinks he knows what his future’s gonna be. He thinks it’s gonna be with you. Is that a possibility?

Hope: I get that you’re a concerned parent, but this? This is between thomas and me. Only thomas and me.

Thomas: Yeah, I forget that finn is an only child. Just doesn’t understand sibling energy.

Steffy: He doesn’t like the way you talk to me.

Thomas: Maybe I did come on a little strong.

Steffy: Ah, he’s just protective of me. Just like I’m trying to protect you with hope.

Thomas: You’re my little sister. I’m supposed to protect you too. I still want you to be supportive of me. Look at me. Happy, steff. I’ve earned this, haven’t I?

Steffy: Look, I don’t want to crush your feelings, okay?

Thomas: Why do we have to focus on the past? Look, I’ve done so many things that I regret. I wish I could go back and change them, right? But I’m done sitting in that remorse and that regret. I wanna move past that and hope has moved on. Why can’t you?

Steffy: I– I know you’ve made some changes. I just don’t want you to jeopardize them and when I see you and hope together and the way you talk about her, kind of feels that you are.

Thomas: Not to me. Look, I– I want you to be there for me. I want you to be my supportive sister. I mean, so many things are going so well in my life right now– our lives. I mean, the company is thriving, right? Douglas is also succeeding and yeah, I’m in love. You don’t have to fully support my relationship with hope if you really, really, really don’t want to, but please don’t undermine it. Please.

Finn: Don’t see any red flags in your medical history.

Xander: No, no. I’ll just mostly be coming in for annual checkups, that kind of thing.

Finn: Okay, I’ll order some labs, we’ll get a baseline and I see your doctor in london released your records, so.

Xander: Oh, great. Um, if it’s easier, I can get them from my last doctor in L.A.

Finn: Oh, did you used to live here?

Xander: Uh, yeah. Yeah, a few years ago.

Finn: Glad to be back?

Xander: Uh, we’ll see.

Finn: What took you to london? Work?

Ridge: You were involved with keeping baby beth a secret from everyone. It’s not a crime against society, it’s just a crime against my family. But I love my family. Don’t ever step foot in this building again. You’re terminated.

Xander: Uh… just– just got to the end of my road here, you know? Just needed some time. Regroup.

Finn: Well, that’s good. Glad you– you got some time. So, the exam room is just out the door to the right, so.

Xander: Oh, great. You said, uh… wait. Are you married to steffy forrester?

Steffy: Hey, any updates on granddad?

Ridge: Um, I’m waiting on finn to give me a call about the latest test results. Uh, I need to talk to you.

Steffy: Yeah, what’s going on?

Ridge: Hope was in here. Said you gave her an earful about thomas.

Steffy: I told her to back off and now she’s dragging you into it? Right, okay.

Ridge: She’s not dragging me into it. She just said that there’s an attitude about her relationship.

Steffy: Attitude? My attitude isn’t the problem. I– I told them that I am concerned about them and I am. Thomas has intense feelings for hope and that makes him vulnerable, but hope thinks it’s no big deal. She doesn’t want a future with him, you know that.

Ridge: I asked her about that.

Steffy: What did she say?

Ridge: She told me to mind my own business.

Steffy: Okay, okay. So, thomas is just like a open book. Actually, he’s more like a bright neon sign. No restraints, no reservations and I know he wants me to support him, but I can’T. Because this looks like it could be dangerous. This could end very badly for him.

Thomas: Sorry about my sister. She loves to lecture.

Hope: Mm, well I got one from your dad too.

Thomas: Hm. What is wrong with my family? It’s like, “okay, so granddad’s doing better, so what else can we stress out about?”

Hope: Well, I did kinda bring it on myself. I was, um… I was hoping ridge might tell steffy to lay off us a little bit.

Thomas: Okay, so I’m not the only eternal optimist in this relationship.

Hope: No. Um, but I also– I do understand where they’re coming from, thomas. They love you and they worry.

Thomas: Yeah, even when I told them not to worry.

Hope: Well, don’t you know? I mean, what we have is very, very, very confusing to them.

Thomas: Oh, very confusing. Even though it makes complete and total sense to us and that’s all that matters.

Hope: Mm. Can’t let them hear that though.

Thomas: They should be feeling the opposite, you know? For what you’ve shown me, your love, commitment and support, it’s helped me gain the strength to become a new man. The kind of man that the line deserves. The kind of man that douglas deserves as a father. That’s because of you. You’ve made me happier than I ever have been. Thank you for that.

Xander: You and steffy are married?

Finn: Do you know my wife?

Xander: Yeah. I was an intern at– at forrester.

Finn: Nice. All right, so you know steffy? You worked with her and the forresters?

Xander: Yeah, I worked with all the forresters. Even thomas.

Finn: Thomas?

Xander: Yeah, your brother-in-law?

Finn: Do you have some sort of history with him?

Xander: You really haven’t heard anything?

Finn: Uh, no, but, uh, the way you’re acting, I feel like I, uh, should have.

Thomas: You stop! You’re trying to make this simple, xander, and it’s not. We’re trying to tell you it’s not. Hope and liam, they’re gonna be fine and beth? She’s gonna be fine too.

Xander: Then what about emma? She is dead because of you. Because of this evil secret.

Thomas: Emma was reckless and selfish, which is what you’re being right now.

Xander: Is that a threat?

Zoe: No. Nobody is threatening anyone.

Xander: Oh, please. He’s working you, zoe! Praying on your fear, just like he’s praying on hope. You know, I heard her mother talking to donna and katie. She’s not happy about this engagement. She’s worried as hell because she knows that it’s wrong. What kind of marriage do you think you’re supposed to have with hope? It’s based on a lie. I mean, what– what kind of life do you think we’re supposed to have, huh? With this always hanging over our heads? But I don’t want him tempting fate, getting mixed up with hope. He put that dark chapter behind him.

Xander: You know what? I– I don’t want to be rude. I’m sure you’re a great doctor, but I just don’t think this is going to be a good fit, so I think maybe I should go.

Finn: Wait, I’m sorry. Because of what? My family. Okay, obviously, um, there is– there is something going on here that I don’t quite understand and you’re giving me the feeling that it involves thomas.

Xander: Thomas… thomas isn’t who you think he is.

Thomas: No one’s gonna take this away from us.

Hope: I don’t think that’s what they’re trying to do. But, I also don’t want to cause tension between you and your family, especially now with eric’s recovery. So, I just– I just think we should be grateful

Thomas: I am. I am so grateful to be right here, right now, holding you, kissing you.

[ Thomas sighing ] I love how close we are. So close that all I have to do is look at you and I know what you’re thinking. You don’t even have to tell me. I look beside me and there you are, always. You just– through the hard times, my grandfather’s illness. Also, the good times. You put your faith in me. You have trust in me to grow and become the kind of man you deserve by your side. Yeah, I’ve told you this before and I will tell you again, I am a one woman man and that woman for me is you, hope. I also know a little– a little boy who feels the exact same way. Loves us together. Always and forever. So, hope… will you make me the happiest man in the world? Hope logan… will you marry me?

[ Both chuckling ] Hope logan… will you marry me?

[ Both chuckling ]

Finn: Not who I think he is?

Xander: I don’t even know what to call someone with no conscience. No remorse. Look, doctor, I’m sorry. I know he’s your brother-in-law, but… but thomas did something just… evil. Um… to an innocent young girl.

[ Car skidding and crashing ] What if it wasn’t an accident, zoe?

Zoe: Sh. Xander.

Xander: I can’t stop thinking about it.

Zoe: We should be thinking about emma and her family, not what you think thomas may have done.

Thomas: Hey.

Xander: You can’t stop me.

Thomas: Go. But if you tell anyone about this–

Xander: What are you gonna do, huh? You gonna kill me like you killed emma? You gonna kill zoe? Um, I’m sorry. Have– have you ever heard the name emma barber?

Finn: Uh, no. What– what– did something happen to her?

Xander: Yeah. We were both interns. We were all hoping on hope for the future.

Finn: So, did she leave too? Did thomas make it difficult for her?

Xander: Difficult? No. No, much worse than difficult. I’m talking about murder.

Finn: Murder?

Thomas: Say yes, hope. We belong together. Please say you’ll marry me.

Thomas: Don’t do this.

Steffy: What? It’s a simple question. Do you love my brother or not?

Thomas: You don’t have to answer that. Steff. Why are you putting hope on the spot like that? Look, you have been completely open about your feelings. Don’t you think thomas deserves the same?

Thomas: Come on, steff.

Steffy: I’m not trying to upset hope, thomas. I’m just being a protective sister.

Thomas: Okay, well, you don’t need to be a protective little sister because I’m a grown ass man.

Steffy: You are a grown ass man who’s been crazy about hope for a very long time. But I don’t think she’s ever reciprocated the feelings. Until rome. Until you kissed him. And ever since then, you two have gotten closer. Your feelings have gotten stronger. So that’s why you need to be straight with him. Do you love thomas? Will you ever love thomas?

Finn: Hey. Yeah. I’m checking to see what the eta is on on those test results. Seriously? No, I– yes, I understand that they’re shorthanded. It just… okay, well see what you can do, okay? I need the results as soon as possible. All right. Thank you.

Ridge: It sounds like you’re slammed.

Finn: Ridge.

Ridge: I’ll come back when you’re less busy.

Finn: No. Honestly. I don’t know when that’s gonna be. It’s crazy around here all the time what can I do for you?

Ridge: Well, I came by to see dad, but apparently he’s having some tests.

Finn: Yeah, I ordered them. I was actually just checking to see when the results are gonna be ready. He’ll, uh, he’ll be back up in his room soon.

Ridge: How’s he doing?

Finn: How do you feel he’s doing?

Ridge: How do I– well, I don’t know. Um… I kind of was hoping that he’d have improved a little more and I know it takes time. I get all that but, uh, I just wanna make sure we get there.

Finn: Get there as in when is he gonna be eric forrester again?

Ridge: Yeah. I know you can’t look into the future. I– I know. But, um… I want to make sure we get the same guy back. Or is that asking too much?

Finn: You’re right. I– I can’t see into the future. All right. But what I can do is tell you where he is right now. Right? And where I hope he’ll be as eric’s doctor, in a month or two or longer.

Ridge: Understood.

Finn: Okay, first of all, ridge, look, you– you gotta understand. Eric’s met all his markers, right? He’s off the ventilator, he’s healing nicely from the surgery and that’s saying a lot for a man who’s been through what he’s been through.

>>Ridge: Yeah, we almost lost him. We did lose him.

Finn: Briefly, but he came back. Right? Eric came back to you and your family. That’s a family he gets a lot of strength from. Supporting him in recovery.

Ridge: I get that and his family will be here.

Finn: Always, right?

Ridge: Yeah.

Finn: But that same family been through a lot. Especially you, ridge. I mean, you have responsibilities of being eric’s medical power of attorney, all that. So, it– it put steffy through, the toll it took on her. I just can’t imagine what it was like for you.

Ridge: It almost seemed easy on paper, right? Give him what he wants. Let him go peacefully. No machines. And then you came up with, I still don’t know what it is but whatever you did and uh, so far so good.

Finn: So far. Yeah.

Ridge: Well that makes you the doctor, makes you the man that saved my dad. And I know I’ve been hard on you and I’m sorry about that, but I was a little scared but he’s here and I will always be grateful to you for that.

Thomas: You need to stop. Hope isn’t on trial, okay? You don’t get to come in here and–

Steffy: And ask if she’s leading you on? If she has genuine feelings for you?

Hope: Of course, I have feelings for thomas.

Steffy: But how deep are those feelings?

Thomas: I think it’s pretty obvious. You just pointed it out.

Steffy: What? That you two are lovers? Okay. Fine. But has she actually told you that she’s in love with you?

Thomas: You gotta stop, steff. I know what this is. You don’t like our relationship. You don’t actually want a relationship between us to succeed. But that’s okay because I know what I’m doing.

Steffy: But does hope know what she’s doing?

Hope: Steff, I don’t know what you want me to say.

Steffy: I’ve asked you a question and you haven’t answered it. You haven’t even been honest with thomas. Look, I have my doubts about whatever this is, but one thing I know is that you do not love my brother. I don’t think you’ll ever love my brother, so can you stop leading him on? Thomas has turned his life around and I will not let you undermine all the progress he’s made I won’t let you do that to him.

Finn: Honestly, I, um.. I don’t know what I would have done in your situation. And as a doctor, yeah, I believe in the power of medicine to heal and I– I took an oath, but there– there have been times when… yeah, it– it– it may have been kinder to let a patient go. You know, and not try to prolong a life that was probably ending anyway with– with machines and surgeries and everything, you know?

Ridge: And there’s the rub. My dad was done. He wanted to go. And then you offered the possibility of life. And I get it. Maybe not the life he had, but a life and… I had to decide if that was worth it.

Finn: I mean, you were in the middle. I mean, you had the responsibility of being eric’s medical power of attorney. Everything that comes with that. And then on the other hand–

Ridge: A family who didn’t want to let him go.

Finn: Yeah. I know steffy didn’t want to let him go.

Ridge: Steffy, donna, brooke, bridget. All of them. They made me change my mind.

Finn: And I realize that’s a decision you’re still second guessing yourself about.

Ridge: Yeah.

Finn: Yeah, one that you’re probably still gonna struggle with until you see some significant improvement from eric.

Ridge: And we will, right? I mean, look, if– if he comes back the same person, if– if everything is fine, if he can still play the piano and do whatever he likes to do, then we’re in great shape. But he– if he loses speed even just a little bit…

Finn: You feel responsible?

Ridge: Because I am responsible.

Finn: But look, eric’s alive. Right? He’s breathing on his own. He’s getting stronger every day. And ridge, I see potential for him to recover from this. I mean, he’s already in the holiday spirit.

Ridge: I know. You heard him, right? Merry christmas. Well, what a present that was.

Finn: Yeah, well it definitely was for steffy. You know, she’s been worried sick about– not that she still isn’T. But look, she’s seeing her granddad get progress every day

Ridge: And he’s getting better. You said his markers are good? Is that what you said?

Finn: Yeah. Yeah. And if these tests show what I need them to show. Again, but for now–

Ridge: For now, we celebrate. I hear you. That’s what we’re gonna do. That’s what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna celebrate.

Finn: Good, good.

Ridge: None of this could happen without you. A few days ago, I mean, I’m sitting in the waiting room and I’m– I’m trying to think how I’m gonna live my life without my dad. And now I don’t have to do that. So, I’m– I– I’m so grateful. My family is grateful.

Finn: Thanks. I– I mean, I’m just doing my job, but the fact that’s steffy’s grandfather is eric, it also…

Ridge: Yeah, you didn’t really have a choice, did you?

Finn: I wanted to. You’ve got a good family and the foresters are fiercely loving, protective. There’s nothing steffy wouldn’t do for her family.

Ridge: Thank you.

Finn: Yeah.

Thomas: Steff. I know you’re trying to look out for me, but hope has been honest about her feelings for me.

Steffy: Have you really? Have you been honest with yourself? You’ve asked yourself where this relationship is going? Do you actually want a future with him? Have you thought about douglas? What kind of message this is sending to him? I mean, all he wants is his mom and dad back together and it seems like you’re just stringing his father along.

Hope: Okay. I’m going to stop you right there, steffy. Honestly, it is none of your business. This is an intimate, private matter between your brother and me, between our family. I am not about to share that information with you.

Steffy: What about you, thomas? I hate to say it, but you’ve had problems in the past. Your obsessive feelings for hope. I know you regret it now, but that is because of your feelings for her.

Thomas: But you’ve said it before. People change.

Steffy: Do you see what you’re doing? Do you really see what you’re doing? You’re fanning the flames. Thomas is gonna end up heartbroken because you are unable to love him the way he wants to be loved. I really think what you’re doing is unfair.

Thomas: Hope. Can I have a moment alone with my sister?

Thomas: What the hell are you doing? Are you actively trying to ruin our relationship?

Ridge: Oh, hey. Oh, ridge. Hi. Are you, um, are you coming from the hospital?

Ridge: Yeah, I was just there.

Hope: How is eric doing? You know what? I didn’t get a chance to see him. He was having some tests done, but it gave me a chance to talk to finn and thank him for everything.

Hope: Yes, he is a remarkable doctor.

Ridge: Yes, he is.

Hope: I just wish steffy would focus on that. Sorry. I, um… I just think that we all have so much to be grateful for right now. Eric doing well and, um, I wish steffy would just stop giving thomas and me such a hard time.

Ridge: What are you talking about?

Hope: I actually came in here to escape the design office. I was in there with thomas and steffy came barging in and proceeded to put us on the spot, once again.

Ridge: On the spot? What was she doing? She was asking you how you feel about her brother or…

Hope: I mean, yes.

Ridge: And? How do you feel about him?

Steffy: I’m sorry, thomas. I don’t mean to upset you. I’m just concerned.

Thomas: So you’ve said, but I love hope.

Steffy: I know you love hope. You’ve loved hope for as long as I can remember. But does she love you?

Thomas: She was married before, steff, okay?

Steffy: Okay.

Thomas: We didn’t have that before because she was married to liam. But now she’s not, right? So, this is our chance.

Steffy: So you and hope? A future?

Thomas: Yes.

Steffy: You really think that’s possible?

Thomas: I know it’s possible.

Steffy: How do you know that? Has she said anything? Any kind of indication that she wants to marry you? Spend the rest of her life with you?

Thomas okay. Not directly. Right. But I’m willing to wait.

Steffy: You have been waiting a very long time. Shouldn’t that tell you something?

Thomas: Don’t look at me like that. You don’t understand how intimate hope and I have been.

Steffy: Oh, thomas. God.

Thomas: Steff. We’ve had a wonderful relationship and I know that you say you want me to be happy, so let us be happy together.

Ridge: Take it easy. I don’t want to pry, all right? That’s his love life. My son’s love life. That’s his business. And as long as he makes strong, healthy choices, I’m not gonna interfere.

Hope: That’s great. I just wish that steffy and everyone else got that memo.

Ridge: And I’m sorry this is causing friction between the two of you.

Hope: Me too. Honestly. But I– I don’t know. I just– I don’t know what to tell everyone. I don’t have an answer. I am just for once in my life trying to be present and live in the moment and see where my heart takes me. Something that my mother has done over the years and I don’t know, it seemed to have worked out pretty well. But, I just wish that people would have the decency to give us the space to figure it out for ourselves. Thomas and I, we have– we have a good thing going. And he’s happy. I’m happy. The kids are doing well. I don’t think it’s anybody’s business. And quite frankly, keeps pushing– keeps pushing thomas and violating our boundaries, I just– I worry it could lead to trouble.

Thomas: These past few months with hope, I can’t even explain how amazing they’ve been. How amazing she has made me feel. By her own admission, how amazing I’ve made her feel. Being together, intimately, holding her, touching her.

Steffy: Oh, please stop.

Thomas: I can’t stop loving her. I— don’t you get that by now?

Steffy: I– I do get that. I absolutely get it. And I’m trying to take you at your word that you’re not getting obsessed with hope again.

Thomas: Okay, you have told me that I am a changed man. You believe that I’m a changed man. So, why would you even insinuate that? It doesn’t make any sense. Steffy, look… I’m not getting obsessed with hope. But I love her. And yeah, maybe she hasn’t directly said, “I love you, thomas,” but you haven’t been there for the intimate conversations and you weren’t there for a conversation where she looked at me and said, “I do love you for that.” And yeah, I get it. It’s not the same, but you weren’t there. There was love there, steff.

Steffy: It’s not the same. It’s not the same as hope looking at you and saying, “I’m in love with you.” And you know that. You just don’t want to accept it and that worries me.

Thomas: Okay, that’s fine. You haven’t been there for the last few months. You haven’t been there for our intimacy. You weren’t there for that conversation. That doesn’t matter. That doesn’t stop you from being supportive of me and you don’t even have to do that. You don’t have to be supportive of me. Just don’t ruin my relationship. Don’t intentionally get in the middle of my relationship with hope because I’m not going to allow that, steff.

Steffy: This is so crazy.

Finn: That’s enough, thomas. You are out of line. I don’t care that she’s your sister, you don’t speak to her that way. You hear me? Thomas. Thomas! Do you hear me?

Steffy: I cannot thank you enough. All this time, I’ve been terrified that my grandfather was dying, but now he’s through the procedure, he’s off the ventilator and he’s getting better every day.

Finn: Hey, eric is definitely improving, but steffy, he’s got a long road ahead of him.

Steffy: I know that, but it’s all because of you. You saved my grandfather’s life.

Hope: I think that was a good way to start the day. Eric is getting better every time we see him.

Thomas: Yeah. No, he is. You know, I– I couldn’t go through the holidays without my granddad. I just can’t imagine that.

Hope: He’s fighting his way back to us.

Thomas: Yeah. It won’t be easy though. He’s not out of the woods yet. Right? But– but for now, it looks like he’s gonna make it.

Hope: I think we can finally start to breathe again.

Brooke: Are you disappointed eric was sleeping? You really didn’t get much time to spend with him.

Ridge: That’s okay. He needed to rest. Besides felicia, kristen, rick are there. The whole family is coming, so, uh, I don’t know. I’m just glad he’s back.

Brooke: Yeah, me too. We should have known better than to count eric out. Even for a second. He has so much more life left to live.

Ridge: I know. People love him, need him.

Brooke: You more than anybody.

Ridge: Yeah, I’ve grown attached to the old man, you know? He’s beaten the odds, hasn’t he? It’s a real christmas miracle.

Thomas: I don’t know where I’d be without your support, your presence.

Hope: We helped each other. And now look. Eric’s gonna make it. I can feel it. Yes and yes– yes, there will be some challenges ahead, but knowing eric and his determination, I know that he’s going to meet them head on and rise above.

Thomas: God, I love that man. You know, he is– he is our family support, our family’s center. I just think about my dad and what he’s had to go through. Holding his own father’s life in his hands. Having to make the decision of whether to pull the plug, in a way, like, especially knowing that granddad, he– he didn’t want to be kept alive by machines. But thankfully, thank god, the family got through to him.

[ Both chuckling ]

Ridge: Let me ask you something. Do you think dad wants to be here?

Brooke: Of course. Why wouldn’t he?

Ridge: Because he flatlined, he went over to whatever the other side is and what if he liked it there and we brought him back?

Brooke: Ridge, you’ve got to stop doing this. You need to remain positive. Your father came back to us. It seems like the experimental treatment is working. He’s alive. That means anything is possible, including getting him back to being his old self again. And we have finn to thank for that.

Steffy: I never want to let you go. I kind of wish we were at home right now so I could show you how much I appreciate you.

Finn: Well, I gotta come home at some point.

Steffy: Yes, you do. It’s just amazing. You found a way to keep my grandfather alive. You have no idea how much that means to me and my family. I’ve never wanted to make love to someone more than I do now. Did you know 80% of women are struggling with hair damage?

Brooke: When eric is fully back to himself and completely recovered, he is going to be so grateful for you.

Ridge: I– I think this is kind of dependent. If he comes back and he sits behind his desk and rules this empire that he’s created and he gets to go home and make love to donna and have dinner and a couple of cocktails and play the piano, then yes, he’s going to be grateful. But if he can’t do all of that, if he’s not that same person, he’s gonna hate me. And he should.

Brooke: Oh, my gosh, he’s not gonna hate you, ridge. There’s nobody more compassionate and understanding than eric. He’s gonna know that you acted out of love. And that you worked hard at giving him a second chance at life. And when he recovers and he will, fully, then we will have finn to thank. I mean, what he’s done is incredibly remarkable. How he’s been there for steffy and the whole family.

Steffy: We all love granddad so much. The thought of losing him was incomprehensible. And then when dad wanted to take him off life support, I just– I couldn’t handle it.

Finn: It’s– it’s one of the most difficult things a family could go through.

Steffy: Oh, my gosh, I know. It was awful and it was tearing dad apart. And I begged him not to go through with it, and then when granddad died in the recovery room. And then, he comes back on– on a ventilator. Like that’s when I really started to doubt myself. And I started to wonder if– if we did the right thing. And maybe we should have let him go peacefully like he asked. But, oh, my god, thank god, we didn’t do that. Thank god, we didn’t do that.

Finn: Yeah.

Steffy: I’m just– I’m so glad that we have you. And that you gave him a second chance.

Finn: Yeah, but honey, it’s exactly that. Okay? It’s a second chance. There’s still no guarantees. He’s got a long road ahead of him.

Steffy: Yeah, but he’s gonna fight to live his best life and we’re gonna help him. Thanks to you.

Finn: No, I don’t want to lose eric either. Look, I just– listen, don’t dwell on all this, okay? And don’t guilt yourself about everything. These are very stressful and challenging things for a family to go through.

Steffy: Yeah. It makes me worried about thomas.

Finn: Why? What– what’s going on?

Steffy: He just internalizes things when he’s just scared or he’s hurting. I am glad that he’s had someone to lean on. That hope’s been there for him.

Hope: I mean, I– I still can’t believe that finn has just been working behind the scenes this entire time to try to help save your grandfather’s life. I mean, he kind of has.

Thomas: I know and I’m so grateful. I just… I hope…

Hope: What? What?

Thomas: I just hope that granddad makes a full recovery.

Hope: Well, he is still here. And he is putting up one hell of a fight and I have to believe that he is going to come back to us better than ever. And again, a large part of that is thanks to finn. I mean, your sister, she must be– she must be pretty proud.

Thomas: Oh, yeah, 100%, right, and now he’s obviously got a fan in you.

>Hope: Well, I have always had a lot of respect for him and then he gives us this miracle and I just think that we should all be very grateful that he is a part of our lives.

Thomas: You know what I’m grateful for?

Hope: Hm?

Thomas: This woman that’s in my arms right now. Yeah, that one. Right here.

Hope: Oh, oh.

Thomas: I’m just so grateful for your love and your support.

Finn: I thought you weren’t thrilled about thomas and hope’s relationship.

Steffy: I’m not. It’s just– it’s no secret that thomas is head over heels in love with hope. And she’s not gonna return the feelings.

Finn: Honey, could you blame her? I mean, how could hope forget all the things thomas did?

Steffy: He’s come a long way since then.

Finn: True. But, honey, I hate to say it but beth wouldn’t be with hope if thomas had his way all those years ago.

Steffy: Yeah, but that was a long time ago, finn. Thomas was in a really dark place. Look, I– I’m just worried that hope being so cavalier with thomas’s feelings is gonna trigger him back. And yes, I am glad that he’s had a lifeline through this whole crisis with granddad, so I can’t be mad at hope for that, but…

[ Cell phone chimes ]

[ Steffy sighs ]

Finn: I gotta get back to the floor.

Steffy: I’m gonna head over to forrester. Thank you for being my little miracle worker. What would my family do without you?

Finn: You’ll never have to find out.

Ridge: This is important. You want this tube out of your mouth or not?

[ Eric gasps ] Dad. I know I made you a promise. And I wanted to honor it. But finn came up with an option and we took it. And I’m so glad we did.

Brooke: Where did you go?

Ridge: No, I’m– I’m sorry. I’m here. I’m– I was just thinking about bridget and finnegan and taking dad off the ventilator.

Brooke: Yeah, that was really scary. Not knowing if he was going to breathe on his own or not. But then, he heard stephanie’s bible verse and he did.

[ Brooke chuckles ] I was so happy in that moment. I’ll never forget it. He did. He was breathing and eric is back with us.

Ridge: Is he back with us? Does he want to be back with us? You saw him? He woke up and he– he looked at everybody. He looked at me. He wasn’t smiling and it didn’t seem angry, but he just seemed like a man who was in a place where he wanted to be and got pulled back into a hospital bed.

Brooke: Ridge, he was unconscious. He was trying to, you know, make the adjustment coming out of that.

Ridge: I just don’t know that he wants to be here.

Brooke: Well, I do know, we have proof. On christmas day, he started breathing again on his own.

Ridge: Okay.

Brooke: And for the record, I know that eric is happy to be back here with us. Especially with you. A son that he adores.

Thomas: Yes, he is off the ventilator and he’s fully conscious. I know, it’s amazing. I’ll keep you posted, okay, renee? All right, thanks. Bye. What?

Hope: It’s just really nice to see you so relieved. That smile.

[ Thomas laughs ]

Thomas: I’m smiling because of you. You stood by me through all of this and held my hand through some of my family’s darkest hours. I love you, hope, and I can see how much you love me. (Owner) purina one… we switched and wow! From day 1, its proven natural nutrition supports charlie’s strong immune system… and ginger’s healthy heart. (Vo) healthy differences today and for a lifetime. Purina one. A difference from day one.

Brooke: It’s obvious how much you and your father love each other. You share so many beautiful memories together.

Ridge: I should never take any of that for granted.

Brooke: No, life is too fleeting. I mean, look around. You grew up here. You were playing on the floor. Your dad taught you so much. He turned you into this amazing designer and made you the man that you are today.

Ridge: Yeah, it’s true. I love that man. The smartest, the kindest man I know. And I would do anything for him. Except let him go. I couldn’t do that.

Brooke: Yeah, well, I always knew he was gonna make it.

Ridge: Did you?

Brooke: Mm-hmm.

Ridge: See, that’s why my dad loves you because you’re always so positive. He’s always been our champion, right? Always believed in our love.

Brooke: Our destiny.

Ridge: Our destiny. Smartest man I know. And thank you for always being my rock. Even through your own pain.

Brooke: I will always be whatever you need me to be.

Ridge: Same. I gotta say something because I don’t say it nearly enough. I am so glad I’m on this journey with you. I love you so much, logan.

Thomas: All the time we’ve spent together and how close we’ve become, it tells me everything I need to know about how you feel about me. And you obviously know how I feel about you. I’m here for you and only you. Hey, steff. Uh, any news about granddad?

Steffy: He’s doing a lot better. We still don’t know the prognosis, but he’s– he’s not backsliding.

Thomas: Thank god.

Hope: I’m so happy for you both. I know how much you love him.

Steffy: Yeah, you have, uh, you’ve been a huge support. I appreciate that.

Hope: I’m sensing a but.

Steffy: Yeah, there is. I mean, there’s no surprise I’m concerned about my brother.

Thomas: There’s no reason to be.

Steffy: Really? Are you sure about that? Considering the history between you and hope?

[ Thomas clears throat ] So, what is this? I’m curious. Is this a– is this a relationship now? Are you guys hooking up? You really think that’s a good idea?

Thomas: Steff, I told you, everything is under control.

Steffy: I’m not sure about that after what I just heard. Thomas, you are in love with hope. You’ve been in love with hope for a very long time and those feelings have taken you to very unfortunate places. Do not lead my brother on, hope. Do not toy with his emotions. He doesn’t deserve it. What he deserves is the truth. So, be honest with him. Do you love thomas or not?

[ Dramatic music ]

Ridge: You saw that, right? You all saw that.

Donna: Saw what?

Brooke: He opened his eyes.

Finn: Not quite open, but…

Brooke: Well, his eyes fluttered. That’s got to be good, right?

Donna: Eric, can you hear me?

Steffy: We were talking about the ventilator. Taking him off, seeing if he could breathe on his own.

Brooke: That’s a sign. He’s listening. He’s ready. Is that what you’re trying to tell us, eric? You’re ready?

Bridget: It’s time to give this a try, dad. Okay? Finn and I are a little worried if we wait too long.

Finn: We don’t want you to get an infection, eric. Eye movement’s a positive sign. It reinforces we’re making the right decision. He’s capable of breathing on his own.

Bridget: But will he?

Katie: Oh, thank you so much for doing this. Donna is gonna be so appreciative.

Zende: Of course. No problem.

Luna: Is this supposed to be a surprise or?

Katie: No, no. She just texted and said fill the house with holiday spirit.

Zende: I think we are accomplishing the goal.

Katie: Yes.

Zende: Best we can at least with– without granddad here to supervise us.

Katie: Yeah.

Rj: Hey. Found the carousel. I mean, is granddad even gonna see the decorations this year or ever again?

Luna: Well, if there’s any time of year for a miracle to happen…

Katie: She’s exactly right. This sense of holiday spirit that donna wanted us to create, it’s not just for the house. It’s– it’s so much bigger than that. Maybe this is the boost that eric needs. To bring him back to us.

Zende: I hope you’re right, katie, because I gotta say, doesn’t feel like the holidays without granddad in the house.

Rj: Him playing piano.

Katie: Pouring his lethal eggnog.

Rj: We should bring some to the hospital. I think the aroma alone, it might– it might wake him up.

Katie: I think bridget and finn might have something to say about that.

Rj: Yeah. It’s just– isn’t it hard just sitting here waiting for news?

Luna: Yeah, but your dad promised to update us.

Rj: I know– I know he did. I’m just worried that it’s gonna be bad news.

Zende: This can’t be what christmas is like for us moving forward. A holiday filled with so much joy and laughter is turned into a painful memory? Of losing the man who holds this family together?

Bridget: Thank you. We’ll see you in a minute. The respiratory specialist is on her way up.

Ridge: Specialist? What does the specialist do?

Bridget: Well, she’s the one that’s been in charge of dad’s ventilator.

Finn: And if we want to do this, remove it, she needs to have the final sign-off.

Donna: Yeah, okay, but you both think that eric’s ready.

Finn: No, we do. Plus, the risks of keeping him on this much longer.

Steffy: We have to do it. Granddad, you have to come back to us, I pray. I pray that you come back to us.

Brooke: I know you’re choosing to fight.

Steffy: Yes. Grandad, you have to fight. Fight.

Finn: Don’t lose faith, you hear me?

Steffy: He’s kept alive on these machines.

Finn: Yeah, kept alive after a very difficult procedure. Yeah, machines were needed, but he’s gonna be glad that he had them. After he’s up and about and back to the man that he was. Look, I don’t want you to lose any hope. I don’t want any of you guys to lose any hope.

Ridge: Hey, finn, no one’s given up. We’re gonna pray for a christmas miracle.

Brooke: Yes, we are.

Katie: All right. All right, no more talking about losing eric. I believe in the power of positive thinking and we are going to send your grandfather all of our healing thoughts.

Luna: I agree.

Rj: 100%.

Katie: Yeah.

Zende: So, let’s do it. Let’s send granddad every bit of positive energy we have. Maybe tell some stories, share some appreciations, memories of how awesome granddad is.

Katie: Yeah, that’s exactly what we should do. That’s how we should be spending our energy. Absolutely.

Zende: Yeah. I’ll start?

Katie: Yes. Go. Start.

Zende: You know, I wasn’t born into this family. I basically won the adoption lottery. And I’m not talking about the forrester wealth. I’m talking about the forrester heart. Particularly granddad’S. From day one, he was so welcoming. He must have thought my parents were crazy coming back from a honeymoon with the idea of throwing an orphan into the mix. But… he never let on, not for a second. He… always made me feel loved. That I was as much a forrester as anyone else in this family.

Katie: And you are. That’s just the kind of man that eric is.

Zende: Yeah. And years later, he was still so welcoming. I came back from europe and… he insisted that I live here with him. Granddad had such a gift. He knew exactly what to say, exactly how to lift your spirits up.

Katie: You’re so right about that. And he’s going to be that for you again ’cause he’s not going anywhere. Not yet.

Bridget: Okay, everyone heard what the specialist said, right?

Finn: She agrees eric’s ready. He needs to start breathing on his own.

Donna: Needs to, but there’s no guarantee he can.

Bridget: Well, there are risks.

Brooke: He wants to stay. He’ll fight. He’ll breathe.

Finn: Hey, eric, it’s finn. We need to remove the ventilator. Now bridget and I are gonna take care of that, but you have an important role to play too. Once we remove it, you’ll need to breathe.

Donna: He’s hearing you.

Bridget: You understand what you’re about to do, dad? You’re ready to breathe on your own?

Ridge: This is important. You want this tube out of your mouth or not?

[ Donna gasps ]

[ Monitor starts beeping ]

Donna: Oh, no. Please…

Steffy: Finn, do something. Save– save my grandfather.

Finn: Just hold on.

Brooke: Eric, stephanie’s bible here. “Then they cried to the lord in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. He sent out his word and healed them. He rescued them from the grave. Let them give thanks to the lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind.”

[ Eric gasps ]

[ All gasping ]

Bridget: Oh, my god! Oh, my god.

Rj: I found them.

Katie: Oh, yay. Awesome.

Luna: Oh, my gosh. Please tell me that there’s embarrassing baby photos or, like, awkward teenage ones.

Rj: There might be one, or– I don’t know, a couple, like 50. You know what? Extra bonus points if you find any pictures of awkward teenagers of him.

Zende: Hey! Hey, hey, hey.

Katie: Oh, my god. I cannot believe he kept this picture. Or, should I say, I cannot believe that stephanie allowed him to keep this picture.

[ All exclaiming ]

Luna: Oh, my god.

Zende: Ooh, la-la.

Luna: Look at your aunt and your mother.

Zende: Incredible.

Katie: Oh, my god. He’s just…

Zende: Wow.

Katie: He’s meant so much to our family. He’s always taken such good care of us and… especially at this time of year. He’s been so kind and so caring and… wow. He’s been a miracle to so many people. He deserves a miracle himself.

[ Katie sighs ]

Donna: Eric, are you– is he getting air?

Steffy: Finn, he needs help.

Bridget: No, no, he’s okay. This is normal. It’s very hard to breathe at first.

Finn: We expect this. This is good. His body knows what to do. Just needs a little time.

Brooke: Come on, eric. You can do this.

Ridge: You gotta fight.

[ Monitor beeping ]

Bridget: Vitals are improving.

[ Eric grunts ]

Steffy: Granddad, please. Please.

[ Eric grunts ]

Donna: Eric? Eric? Eric?

Ridge: We’re here.

Donna: We’re all here, eric.

Steffy: We’re right here with you.

Finn: Eric, stay with us. Can you focus? Give us a sign.

[ Excited laughter ]

Donna: Oh, my god.

Steffy: Oh, my god.

Brooke: Welcome home, eric.

[ Rj playing “o holy night” ]

[ Cell phone rings ]

Katie: It’s brooke. Hello?

Brooke: Are you still with rj?

Katie: Uh, yeah, I’m here with rj and luna, and zende is here too. We’re at eric’S.

Brooke: Okay, well, put me on speaker.

Katie: Yeah, yeah, of course. Okay. Uh, what is it? Do you have any news?

Brooke: Eric is off the ventilator. He is conscious and he is alert.

Zende: He is?

Brooke: Yeah. He’s breathing on his own again.

[ Katie gasps ] And his vitals are improving. He still has a long road ahead of him, but this is the miracle that we were praying for. I got to go ’cause I have to make more calls and let everybody know. It looks like we’re gonna have a merry christmas after all.

Katie: Okay. All right. We love you. We love you so much. Tell eric we love him. Oh, my god, oh, my god!

Zende: Granddad did it!

[ Shouts ]

Rj: He’s gonna be okay. Yes!

Katie: Oh, my gosh. Okay, well, I think we need to celebrate. I think we need to celebrate. So, we’re sitting at the piano, one of the places that eric loves the most. We should celebrate with one of his favorite christmas carols. So you. You call it?

Rj: Yeah. “Joy to the world.”

Katie: “Joy to the world.” That’s it.

Rj: Yes. Okay.

Joy to the world

the lord has come

let earth receive her king

let every heart

prepare him room

and heaven and nature sing

and heaven and heaven

and nature sing

joy to the world

the lord has come

let earth receive her king

Ridge: Did you make some calls?

Brooke: Yeah. I called thorne and hope and katie spreading the beautiful news. Now, we can really celebrate the holiday.

Ridge: Yes, we can.

Steffy: Granddad, we’re so relieved that you finally came back to us.

Donna: Finn saved you, honey bear. Finn and bridget.

Steffy: Finn found a way to heal you.

Ridge: Dad… I know I made you a promise. And I wanted to honor it. But finn came up with an option and we took it. And I’m so glad we did. Please say something.

[ Eric inhales sharply ]

Eric: M– merry chr… that’s right, eric. It’s christmas. [ Laughs ]

Bridget: Merry christmas, daddy.

Brooke: It’s truly a miracle.

Donna: Merry christmas.

Bradley: From our family to yours.

All: Happy holidays!
