Come on, deacon. You&#8217;re&#8211; you&#8217;re all about creating new opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Not the kind that you&#8217;re talking about.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Look around you. Come on. You did all of this. Isn&#8217;t it amazing? Changes, just a few little things can make?<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Uh-huh.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Yeah. Come on. You know, you&#8211; you&#8211; you saw an opportunity, you followed your heart. And now ii giardino is new and exciting.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Why do I get the feeling that you&#8217;re not talking about my new menu?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Okay, well, I kind of am. I&#8217;m&#8211; I&#8217;m&#8211; but I&#8217;m talking about your&#8211; your personal menu. See now that&#8211; now that brooke and I have sworn off of ridge, she might be into trying an old favorite again. Could be really great for both of you.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: Yeah. Dad cast a pretty long shadow in all of our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: It&#8217;s definitely pretty hard to ignore, that&#8217;s for sure.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: Yeah. He can be relentless.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: Is that how you became co-ceo?<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: Hey, I&#8217;ve had my eye on that chair for a long time, all right?<\/p>\n<p>Rj: And it suits you. My sister, the reigning queen of fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: Wow. Okay. Don&#8217;t let your mom hear you calling me that.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: Oh, come on. She&#8217;s not territorial or competitive about stuff like that anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: Um, you say that, but it kinda sounds like you still want your mom backbo with dad. Is that what you meant, rj?<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: You saved my life. My heart stopped beating. I&#8211; I was fading away, but you pulled me back, my son. I can&#8217;t thank you enough for that. You couldn&#8217;t let me slip away, finn because I know that somewhere deep inside of you, you still love me.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: I told you. I saved your life because that&#8217;s what I do. I treated you like any other patient in my emergency room.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: I know you did, but I really have to believe that somewhere in that big beautiful heart of yours, you haven&#8217;t forgotten that I&#8217;m your birth mother. That I am the woman that brought you into this world.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: I&#8217;m not matchmaking.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: Good. &#8216;Cause it never turns out the way you think it will.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: I know. I&#8217;m&#8211; I&#8217;m&#8211; you know. I&#8217;m not trying to get involved in any of the family drama either. It&#8217;s one of the reasons why I was away for so long. I really&#8211; I just wanna make sure that my mom&#8217;s actually happy.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: I get that.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Rj!<\/p>\n<p>Rj: Hey, mom. How&#8217;re you?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: I didn&#8217;t know you were here in the office. Oh, what a wonderful surprise.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: We were, um, we were actually just talking about you a little bit.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: So you&#8217;re telling me that you really think brooke would take me back?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: You say that like it&#8217;s impossible.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: You know, you and i both know that even if ridge isn&#8217;t hanging around, he&#8217;s always in the picture.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Oh, okay. But things have changed.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Yeah. I&#8217;ll tell you what&#8217;s changed. She&#8217;s hanging out with my boy, hollis.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: They shared a few kisses.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Okay. Didn&#8217;t know that.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Okay. Brooke doesn&#8217;t want hollis. She&#8217;s made that very clear. She wants to be with someone who knows her. Someone she shares a history with. Can you think of anyone that fits the description? We live our lives on our home&#8217;s fabrics.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: I don&#8217;t need to be reminded you&#8217;re my birth mother. Oh, by the way, spoke to my dad. Told me you wanted him to get you outta here?<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: I just want another opportunity to show you that I&#8211; I can be a good, healthy influence in your life and hayes&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: After all the horrific things that you have done?<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: I&#8217;m still family.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: You shot me, sheila.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: It was an accident.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: And you tried to kill steffy. You confessed to murder! That&#8217;s why you&#8217;re in here! And it&#8217;s why you&#8217;re never getting out. There is no future with us. There&#8217;s no role for you to play in my life. This&#8211; this is your life now. You are gonna spend the rest of it in a prison cell.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Rj, I am touched that my happiness means so much to you.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: I&#8217;m sorry. I&#8217;m not trying to put you on the spot or anything. I&#8217;m just curious. I&#8217;m sure steffy is too.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: No, no, no, no. I&#8211; I asked you if you were playing matchmaker. He&#8217;s not. Thankfully.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: That is truE. I am not. I just wanna know if, you know, the door is completely closed on the future with dad or not.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: Okay. There&#8217;s my cue to leave.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Oh, no. You don&#8217;t have to leave. This is your office. I don&#8217;t have anything to say about ridge that I wouldn&#8217;t share with you.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: I just feel as though this might be a private conversation between you and rj. Plus, I have to go see finn.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Is everything okay?<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: Yeah. I just&#8211; he had to take care of something and I just wanna make sure he&#8217;s okay. Yeah. All right. Bye.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: Bye. Okay. We&#8217;re completely alone. You can be totally honest with me, okay? This whole pact that you made with taylor, do you ever wish that you hadn&#8217;t made it?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Oh, my god. I&#8211; I think that you think that I am trying to take advantage of this situation.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Are you? I mean, I thought you and brooke have this agreement.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: This agreement is why I&#8217;m having this conversation with you.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Trying to convince me that brooke would give me another shot.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Trying to remind you that you miss all the shots you don&#8217;t take.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: I&#8217;m just curious why you&#8217;re encouraging me.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Because brooke&#8217;s my friend, and I care about her a lot. And&#8211; and she&#8217;s never without a guy, you know. I&#8211; I&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Will you pinky swear that you&#8217;re not just using me to distract brooke so you can get to ridge? Come on.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: I care about ridge.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Uh-huh.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: He is the father of my children, but this is not about ridge.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Who is it about?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Oh, my god. You. Deacon, you. About you living your best life. Getting everything you deserve.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: With brooke. Postmenopausal women with hr+ her2-<\/p>\n<p>Finn: No more letters. No more email.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: You don&#8217;t even have to respond. I&#8211; I&#8217;m&#8211; I&#8217;m hoping that over time you&#8217;re gonna understand, you&#8217;re gonna realize that I am not your enemy. There&#8217;s so much that I have to say. Finn, there&#8217;s so much that I want you to know. What&#8211; what I felt like when I&#8211; I found out that I was pregnant with you. The&#8211; the hopes that I had for your future. How I wanted to raise you.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: I came&#8211; I came to tell you to leave me and my family alone. I won&#8217;t visit you again. This is the last time we&#8217;ll ever see each other.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: No. No, no, finn. Don&#8217;t do this to me.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: You did this. You put yourself in this position by your own actions. So use this time, better yourself. Not for me. Prove to yourself that you can be a positive influence on the world, even from a prison cell. Goodbye.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: No.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: Guard.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: No, no, no, no, no. Finn, I&#8211; I love you. I love you more than anything. This is not over.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: You&#8217;ll see me again. You will see me again.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: My agreement with taylor isn&#8217;t something that I regret.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: And you wouldn&#8217;t change it if you could?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: You weren&#8217;t here when my marriage fell apart. Ridge left me to go back to taylor, and then he left her at the altar.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: I know. I know that was&#8211; that was painful for you and for taylor. Look, I&#8217;m not trying to get you guys back together, mom. I love your independence. I wanna see you happy and satisfied with being on your own. I support that 100%. And if you and dad, you&#8211; you choose to move on and to live separate lives, I&#8217;ll support that too, but if and only if it&#8217;s what you want and you are choosing it for you because it&#8217;s gonna make you happy.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: I told you that I&#8217;m happy.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: I know, but come on, mom. I&#8217;m your son. You can just talk to me. It&#8217;s between us. Don&#8217;t you still see dad as your soulmate? You know, your destiny?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: You know the answer to that, but I made a pact with taylor and I intend to keep it.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Is this a therapy session or a pep talk?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: It is a thera-pep talk.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: A hybrid thing, okay.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: That&#8217;s exactly what it is. Do you want the psych 101 analysis?<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Well, you&#8217;re gonna give it to me anyway, so let&#8217;s hear it.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: You suffer from low self-esteem.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Well, don&#8217;t hold back. Thanks.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: I&#8217;m not going to. No, but you know, you beat yourself up for the questionable choices that you&#8217;ve made in life or the women that you&#8217;ve been with.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: You don&#8217;t even wanna know.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: No, no, I don&#8217;T. But look how you&#8217;ve turned your life around. Ii giardino is&#8211; is booming. You&#8217;re the talk of the town.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: I mean, it is pretty incredible, isn&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: It is incredible. And it&#8217;s probably unbelievable to you because&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: The&#8211; the low self-esteem.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: See? You&#8217;re a quick study. Wow. You know what? You deserve all of this. You&#8217;re&#8211; you&#8217;re a good guy now. You&#8217;re&#8211; you&#8217;re smart, funny. You&#8217;re business savvy. You&#8217;re not terrible to look at and you&#8217;re somebody that brooke has&#8211; has loved. You&#8217;re the father of one of her kids. Don&#8217;t doubt yourself. Stop wondering what you can bring to the table. You are the damn table.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Well, I mean, nothing screams sexy like a table, so got that going for me. The table?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Yes. [ Laughs ] This isn&#8217;t charmin! No wonder I don&#8217;t feel as clean.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: So how was it seeing sheila?<\/p>\n<p>Finn: Like I expected. She thanked me for saving her life. Got all emotional about it. Told her I was just doing my job. But you know, she made it about herself and our relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Steffy: I&#8217;m not surprised.<\/p>\n<p>Finn: You don&#8217;t need to worry, okay? I made it absolutely clear that sheila will have no part of our life ever again. I just wanna&#8230; forget her. You know, like completely.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila: I will be free again. With my son and his family.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: Do you ever think about dad?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Oh, yes. Yes. And I&#8217;m sure taylor does too. But we&#8217;re just not going to fight over him anymore. That is over.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: And you&#8217;re&#8211; you&#8217;re happy about that?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Oh, yes.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: And if you and dad never get back together again, you&#8217;d be happy with that too? I&#8217;m&#8211; I&#8217;m&#8211; I&#8217;m not lobbying for a reunion. All I care about is how you feel, okay?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: My sweet boy. Always looking out for me.<\/p>\n<p>Rj: So you are happy with this pact that you made with taylor?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Mm-hmm. Yeah. It was a decision that we made together and it was time to move on. I wasn&#8217;t coerced or pressured into it. Taylor and I wanna put our friendship first. We wanna put faith in ourselves and in each other. I don&#8217;t have any reservations about that. I trust taylor completely.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: All right. I gotta admit it. You are pretty good at this.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: I am literally world-renowned, so. You know, I saw the way that your face lit up when you were talking about hope. How much you love her and how proud you are of her.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: I am so proud of her. I&#8211; I&#8211; she&#8217;s accomplished so much and I just&#8211; I can&#8217;t believe the woman that she&#8217;s become.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: And you don&#8217;t think she&#8217;s as proud of you?<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: Yeah, no, I do. I&#8211; I&#8211; yeah. Yeah. And that means everything to me.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Wouldn&#8217;t it be cool if you could&#8211; if you could put her family back together, you know? I mean, come on. Brooke was the&#8211; the great love of your life. You must still love her.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: I think I&#8217;m always gonna love her. I mean, we had some incredible times together. Some of the best of my life. You really think that I got a shot with brooke again?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: You know, I&#8211; I think I do. You&#8217;ve set yourself up here, you know, to&#8211; to hit the target, but you won&#8217;t actually know unless you take the shot. I mean, she&#8211; she was in love with you once. She obviously still cares about you. I don&#8217;t know, maybe you could just go over to&#8211; to visit hope and&#8211; and spend time as a family and&#8211; and see if there&#8217;s anything there.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: And that opens things up with ridge for you.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: Oh, god. Look, it&#8217;s like you said about brooke. I love ridge. I always will, but&#8230; you know, brooke and ridge, they&#8211; they&#8217;ve been trying to make this destiny thing work for a really long time and it&#8217;s never stuck. God, do I wish that things could have been different for ridge and me? Yeah, I do. But they&#8217;re not. That doesn&#8217;t mean that I&#8217;m trying to manipulate the situation for my benefit. What I saw earlier was a&#8211; was a sweet spark with you and brooke. I don&#8217;t know, maybe there&#8217;s an old flame burning in there. An opportunity to turn that into a&#8211; a wildfire. And, I don&#8217;t know, maybe&#8211; maybe have the life you&#8217;ve always dreamed about.<\/p>\n<p>Deacon: With brooke?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor: No, the lady at table eight. Yes. With brooke.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tvmeg.com\/index.php\/2020\/05\/30\/bbtrans\/\">Back to the B&amp;B Transcripts Page<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/tvmegasite.net\/day\/transcripts.shtml\">Back to the Main Daytime Transcripts Page<\/a><\/p>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- TVMEGBODY -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1056557952271337\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8801203268\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6117\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/bbanim.gif\" alt=\"B&amp;B cast animated GIF\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bold &amp; The Beautiful Transcript &nbsp; Transcript provided by Suzanne [ Relaxing music ] [ Taylor clearing her throat ] Taylor: Hey, stop.
