No.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: [ Sighs ] Yes, the company you founded. How about we do what we talked about? Take some of your designs, put &#8217;em in the couture line.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: The couture line that you&#8217;re working on.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: The couture line that we&#8217;ve worked on over the years? Yeah. What is your problem?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Why do I have to keep telling you this, Ridge? I&#8217;m designing this line, and I&#8217;m doing it solo.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Solo? With RJ!<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Yes, with RJ. I&#8217;m doing it with RJ. [ Grunts ] He&#8217;s helping me. He&#8217;s, uh&#8230; he&#8217;s helping me put these designs on paper. That&#8217;s what&#8217;s bothering you, isn&#8217;t it? That your son is designing, but he&#8217;s designing with me and not with you.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>RJ: Mom, are you saying that my designing with Granddad could hurt his relationship with Dad? I mean, I don&#8217;t want that, but I don&#8217;t&#8211; I don&#8217;t understand. Why would Dad be angry?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: No, he&#8217;s not angry. Just the opposite. He&#8217;s ecstatic that you&#8217;re designing. I meant that.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Yeah?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: He just wishes that the circumstances were different.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: He wish&#8211; what&#8211; what does that even mean? Are you saying that Dad doesn&#8217;t want me designing with Granddad?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Hope: Are you sure you&#8217;re okay with this?<\/p>\n<p>[ Hope exhales sharply ]<\/p>\n<p>Hope: You&#8211; you get what this is, right?<\/p>\n<p>Thomas: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Hope: Yeah. Just, I&#8230; I&#8211; I know your commitment to me, and, Thomas, the way you&#8217;re looking at me, I just&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Thomas: Hey. You&#8217;re so beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>[ Hope chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Thomas: We&#8217;re good. No strings.<\/p>\n<p>Hope: Okay. &#8216;Cause I&#8230; love what we&#8217;re doing together. I just&#8230; is it really going to be enough for you?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Brooke: I still can&#8217;t believe that you kept it from your father and me that you&#8217;re designing. That is incredible! We&#8217;re so proud.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Thank you, Mom. Yeah, I, um&#8211; I mean, I just wanted to keep it low-key &#8217;cause Granddad wanted to keep it low-key, so.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Okay. Well, I respect his wishes. It was still a shock, though.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Well, what&#8217;s life without a few surprises, am I right?<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: [ Laughs ] That&#8217;s right. It&#8217;s a little more complicated for your father, but&#8230; you should&#8217;ve seen his face when I told him. He was, uh&#8230; he was amazed. I think it took a minute for him to believe it.<\/p>\n<p>Carter: Um&#8230; believe what?<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Hey, Carter. Um&#8230; well, I mean, you&#8217;re gonna find out sooner or later. Uh, my granddad is creating a new line, and I&#8217;m helping him with it.<\/p>\n<p>Carter: What? I&#8217;m sorry. Wait, hold on, hold on. Is RJ Forrester actually getting involved in the family company? How, man? How so?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Eric: RJ and I are working together.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: I know. You&#8217;re mentoring him. Great.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: No, it&#8217;s more than mentoring him. He&#8217;s doing this collection with me.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: This&#8211; yeah, your&#8211; your grand finale. Yes.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Yes. You should be thrilled that he&#8217;s designing.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: I am thrilled!<\/p>\n<p>Eric: No, I think it bothers you. I think it really bothers you.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Why do you keep saying that it bothers me? Nothing bothers me. No, I wanted this from the day he was born.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Yes, and now he&#8217;s finally doing it, and he&#8217;s designing with me, and not with you.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Carter: Seriously, RJ, congratulations, man. You couldn&#8217;t be learning from a better artist, a better designer than Eric.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Yeah. Believe me, I know how lucky I am.<\/p>\n<p>[ Carter chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Carter: Your dad must be losing his mind.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: That sounds about right.<\/p>\n<p>[ All chuckling ]<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Yeah, I think, uh&#8211; well, I actually haven&#8217;t had the chance to talk to him yet, Mom.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Right. I was the one who had the pleasure of sharing this amazing news, and we&#8217;re both so excited. And your dad? Oh, my gosh. He is so proud.<\/p>\n<p>Carter: And Eric, he&#8217;s the one teaching you.<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Seems like you&#8217;re very passionate about the work that you&#8217;re doing together.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Oh, yeah. I mean&#8211; well, he is teaching me, and that&#8217;s been great. It&#8217;s been amazing. But&#8230; Mom, it&#8217;s even more than that. I mean, he called this line &#8220;our line.&#8221; I mean, you have no idea how that makes me feel.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Ridge: Here you go.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Well, thank you. Cheers.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Cheers. Mmm.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Perfect?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Very close.<\/p>\n<p>[ Ridge chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: What are you doing? What is all this? What do you&#8211; what do you want? Do you want&#8211; want drama in your life? Is that it?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: There&#8217;s not drama. It&#8217;s just a&#8211; it&#8217;s a pretty simple story, really. With RJ&#8230; RJ was off in the world. Traveling around, not communicating with us very much, not coming home very often. He had no interest in the family business. And now he&#8217;s home, and all of a sudden, he&#8217;s designing away. With me, and&#8211; and not with you. It&#8217;s&#8211; it&#8217;s not drama. It&#8217;s a pretty simple story, really. And I wanna be sure that my son isn&#8217;t harboring some kind of resentment there. RJ&#8217;s a great kid.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: He is a great kid. I gotta say something, I&#8217;m sorry. You really think I have a problem with you teaching him? You? Absolutely not. You&#8217;re the best. You taught me. You&#8217;re&#8211; you&#8217;re the master. There&#8217;s no one better to teach him. I&#8211; I get that. You know what I don&#8217;t get? This. How it&#8217;s looking like you&#8217;re having a yard sale. This&#8211; what&#8211; what are you doing, putting yourself through all of this stress, all this anxiety, to do one more thing. Why? Let&#8217;s do it together as a family. You, me and RJ. We&#8217;ll do it together. Why wouldn&#8217;t we do that?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Because this is all mine.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Hope: Mmm. Yeah, I don&#8217;t&#8211; I don&#8217;t wanna talk anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas: Well, there&#8217;s a simple solution to that.<\/p>\n<p>Hope: I do. I&#8211; I want this.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas: So do I.<\/p>\n<p>Hope: But I just&#8211; I just&#8211; um, I need to make sure that you&#8211; you can handle it.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas: I can.<\/p>\n<p>Hope: The agreement. You understand?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Carter: I&#8217;m really excited for you, RJ. I mean, you&#8217;re designing. This is huge. It&#8217;s a wonderful opportunity. You&#8217;re carrying on the family legacy.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Thank you, Carter. It means a lot.<\/p>\n<p>Carter: But I have to be honest. I do have reservations. It&#8217;s the timing, man. To start a new line while Hope For The Future is firing on all cylinders, not to mention the continued success of Ridge&#8217;s couture line, it&#8217;s&#8211; it&#8217;s risky.<\/p>\n<p>RJ: Yeah, but other than that&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Brooke: Ah, you do make some good points, though. You do. And I imagine Ridge feels the same way.<\/p>\n<p>Carter: Yeah. But I do know the history of this place very well, and the first collection was a gamble, but it worked. We&#8217;re here today because Eric took a risk.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Ridge: I&#8217;m trying to figure this out, you know, where it&#8217;s coming from, this&#8211; this need to wanna do this all on your own.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Well, I know what it is. Uh, maybe it&#8217;s, uh, the, uh&#8230; it&#8217;s the ego of the artist.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: [ Chuckles ] The ego of the artist. I like that.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Um, let me ask you something. Do you know what the artist needs? More than fabric, pencils, drawings? You know what that is? The press.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: The press?<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Listen to this: &#8220;Three generations of Forresters meet. The third one was pulled from the shadows by the famous grandfather.&#8221; Huh? Story writes itself.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: It&#8217;s a Pulitzer.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: It is.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Ah, it&#8217;s wonderful. It is. The only trouble with this is that you still&#8211; you still retain control of the line, and I&#8217;m working for you.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: What does that have to do with anything?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Ridge, I&#8217;ve been&#8211; I&#8217;ve been happy to stand in the wings quite a lot over the last few years and give you the limelight. Deserved. Well-deserved. Been very proud of you. But&#8211; but not this time.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: You really wanna do this?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Couldn&#8217;t be more certain.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Thomas: You. [ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Hope: You.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas: All this change in you.<\/p>\n<p>Hope: Mmm. Well, I&#8217;m pretty surprised myself. I discovered something that I never even knew existed. And, uh&#8230; [ Whispers ] &#8230;I like it.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Brooke: So what are you saying, Carter? You support Eric&#8217;s decision to break off and create his own line, even though you know the risks better than anybody?<\/p>\n<p>Carter: I&#8217;m not saying that, but I am too smart to count out the great Eric Forrester.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Ridge: And here I thought Mom was the stubborn one. Yeah, well, you live with someone long enough, you know&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Yeah, good point. Yeah. Do&#8211; do you not feel relevant anymore? Is that it?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: No, Ridge! No, that&#8217;s not it.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: What&#8211; what, you&#8211; you feeling your own mortality? No, Eric Forrester, you&#8217;re gonna outlive all of us.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Well, thank you for that, and thanks for acknowledging that I might have a few good years left in me.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Sure. But I need you to acknowledge something too. There&#8217;s a new generation at Forrester.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: New generation. That&#8217;s, uh&#8230; why, that&#8217;s you, isn&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: No, it&#8217;s not me. No&#8211; yeah. Yes, it is me. And Steffy. And maybe RJ, and Thomas. Look at what we&#8217;re doing. Look at hope for the future. Show some pride in that. Be proud of that.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: I&#8217;m so proud! I&#8217;m so proud of this company. Of course I&#8217;m proud of that. I&#8217;m just not ready to ride off into the sunset.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: No one&#8217;s asking you to do that. No, it&#8217;s the opposite. People want you to stay here and maybe mentor the next generation because their success is your success. How do you not see that?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: All right, stop. Stop, Ridge, stop it. God! I need this. I want this, this&#8211; this new collection of mine. My&#8211; my&#8211; my legacy collection. I want that.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Legacy collection. With all due respect, Dad&#8230; what if it doesn&#8217;t succeed?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: It will.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: You don&#8217;t know that.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: I do.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: You don&#8217;t! You don&#8217;t know that. We&#8217;ve never known that, never. But I do know something. I know that you, you can go into any bar anywhere in the world, and somebody will buy you a martini because of what you&#8217;ve done. You can go to any&#8211; any ballroom anywhere, and some sexy lady&#8217;s gonna ask to dance with you because of what you&#8217;ve done. Any yacht, any harbor, anywhere in the world, you can walk onto, and they will host you for as long as you want, because of what you&#8217;ve done. Not&#8211; not because of what you wanna do. You have plenty of accolades. What do you need?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: I&#8217;m the founder of this company, Ridge. You don&#8217;t&#8211; you don&#8217;t get to tell me what to do.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: You&#8217;re right. Okay. Don&#8217;t say I didn&#8217;t warn you.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Warn me.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: You wanna do this with me? This fashion showdown, with me? Well&#8230; just know that I&#8217;m at the top of my game.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Hmm. That&#8217;s one big ego you got.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: I know. [Indistinct]<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Not my fault.<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: I&#8217;m with Brooke. She inspires me. Everything I touch turns to gold. You sure you wanna do this?<\/p>\n<p>Eric: Absolutely. Let&#8217;s settle this on the runway.<\/p>\n<p>Ridge: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>[ Door closes ]<\/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 &nbsp; Ridge: You&#8217;re not budging on this at all, are you?
