00:00You need to do right by mom, dad. You made her a promise.
00:04Promise to get married, spend the rest of your life together.
00:08It's a promise you better keep.
00:09Son, is there something wrong? Something you want to say?
00:13Yeah, you know, something is wrong. This.
00:21She almost died. I had to save her.
00:24You had to kiss her?
00:25Wow. Yeah.
00:31We really capitalized on that fashion luncheon in Capri.
00:34I mean, the orders from the buyers keep coming in.
00:36Well, I think that's the Brooke Logan effect.
00:39I mean, it wouldn't matter whether it was a luncheon or a fashion show or a tailgate party.
00:46As long as Brooke Logan is there, the dollars keep rolling in.
00:49A tailgate party? Don't give Rich any other ideas.
00:53I'll try not to.
00:54But he's got to be happy with these numbers, right?
00:57Rich? Yeah.
01:00He's not?
01:02Oh, yeah. No, he is.
01:04He is. He's very happy that it was successful.
01:07But I think he's just a little more focused on the fact that he almost lost me.
01:13Well, that's got to be a good sign, right?
01:16Yeah.
01:18It's just that actions matter more than words.
01:25And if it really bothered him, by accident, then why didn't he say anything to Taylor?
01:31I just can't believe Rich is still with her.
01:45Lee?
01:47Lee, is that you?
01:48Oh, hey.
01:50Hi, Taylor.
01:51Hi.
01:52I thought I heard you took a leave for absence.
01:55Oh, yeah, I did.
01:57But I still keep finding reasons to stop by.
02:00I'm not surprised.
02:02I know how dedicated you are to this place.
02:04How passionate you are about medicine.
02:06Yeah, well, sometimes these things need to be done.
02:12We're assuming you needed the break because of Luna.
02:15Luna?
02:15Luna?
02:36Luna?
02:37Luna?
02:38Luna?
02:39Luna?
02:40Luna?
02:41Luna?
02:42Luna?
02:43Luna?
02:44Luna?
02:45Luna?
02:46Luna?
02:47Luna?
02:48Luna?
02:49Luna?
02:50Luna?
02:51Luna?
02:52Luna?
02:53Luna?
02:54Luna?
02:55Luna?
02:56Luna?
02:57Luna?
02:58Luna?
02:59Luna?
03:00Luna?
03:01Luna?
03:02Luna?
03:03Luna?
03:04Luna?
03:06I understand your frustration.
03:15I would be frustrated, too, and I don't think Ridge is doing Taylor any favors
03:19by stringing her along and postponing the inevitable.
03:24Is it inevitable, though?
03:25I mean, the longer he waits to break it off with her, the harder it's going to be.
03:31And I don't envy his situation.
03:34I mean, this is going to be hard for him, especially now.
03:40What do you mean by that?
03:42Well, things are a bit more complicated.
03:45Thomas just got back in town.
03:52Don't let Brooke get to you.
03:55Come on.
03:55You accepted Mom's proposal.
03:58Right?
03:59I mean, you wouldn't have done that.
04:00You wouldn't have told her you're going to spend the rest of your life together with
04:04her if you didn't mean it, right?
04:06If you didn't intend on following through.
04:10You can't break Mom's heart.
04:14Not again.
04:16This whole family is counting on you.
04:18My mom's counting on you.
04:20I am counting on you.
04:22I need this more than you know.
04:32You've been doing patience if you'd like to talk about it.
04:36Not the easiest subject, I know.
04:39Yeah, well, what is there to say?
04:42She was a troubled young girl.
04:45Troubled young girl who happened to be your granddaughter.
04:49Who happened to be under your care after she was shot.
04:52I can only imagine how traumatic that was for you.
04:57Not being able to save her.
04:59Yeah, I'd rather not discuss it.
05:03Okay.
05:04I understand.
05:06If you change your mind, I'm here for you, Lee.
05:10If you want to talk about it, there's anything you'd like to get off your chest.
05:14Negative.
05:26Seriously?
05:30Hey.
05:31Hi.
05:34Something going on?
05:35What's going on?
05:48Here in this boring place where I'm stuck day in and day out?
05:53You know what?
05:53It's a lot better than a prison, isn't it?
05:56And don't give me that bull about day in and day out.
05:59You've had plenty of off-campus time.
06:01I'm sure you remember a little promotion party.
06:05Sure do.
06:06It's a good thing Will doesn't, though.
06:09Could have been a disaster.
06:11Will has no idea that he was with me that night.
06:15Well, makes sense, right?
06:17Since he and everybody else thinks you're dead.
06:19For now.
06:20I can't wait till he finds out that I'm still very much alive.
06:25No, no.
06:27Baby, do you really think that that's going to happen?
06:31You honestly believe that you could have a future with Will Spencer.
06:41Are you evading the time away from Hayes as much as I am?
06:44Oh, I can't wait for Steffi to bring our little grandson home.
06:49Uh, Kelly's already back, right?
06:52Oh, I had to practically beg Steffi to send her back early
06:55so I could help her get organized for the new school year.
06:58Oh, it's fun being grandma, isn't it?
07:00Oh, so much.
07:01Spoiling them rotten.
07:04With the right amount of tough love when needed.
07:07Sure.
07:07I mean, luckily that hasn't been necessary for Kelly or Hayes just yet.
07:12Oh, yeah.
07:12Well, those teenage years are coming.
07:14Oh, true enough.
07:15True enough.
07:16Hold on.
07:17Is that...
07:19I believe I see something new on your finger, Dr. Hayes.
07:22You are absolutely correct, Dr. Frennigan.
07:28Rich and I are engaged.
07:31I want to believe Rich will break it off with Taylor
07:33and come back to me.
07:36But with Thomas back in town,
07:39that could be problematic.
07:42I could see him laying on the guilt trip.
07:44Let him.
07:48Steffi and Thomas are two fully formed human beings
07:53with children of their own.
07:55Rich does not need to feel guilty about anything regarding them.
08:00And I have a feeling that once Thomas hears about what happened in Italy,
08:03even he's going to admit that you and Rich belong together.
08:06God, I don't know if that day will ever come.
08:10It was so incredibly romantic.
08:13Rich saw you get knocked off the boat.
08:16He dove in to save your life.
08:18Pulling me out of the water,
08:20breathing life back into me.
08:23Even Thomas and Steffi have to admit
08:26that's romantic.
08:28I mean, I just don't understand
08:31why Ridge is stalling with all of this.
08:34I mean, he said he was going to do the right thing.
08:37That can only mean leaving Taylor
08:39and coming back to you.
08:42Unless Thomas is talking him out of it
08:45as we speak.
08:47Steffi and I have waited years for this, Dad.
08:50I realize that.
08:51Years of watching you go back and forth
08:55between Mom and Brooke,
08:58tormenting yourself and tormenting Mom.
09:01Please tell me you're not going to go back to this, Dad.
09:04Dad, tell me you're not going to screw it up.
09:07I'm not intending to screw anything up.
09:09I know you're not intending to.
09:10You never intend to.
09:11It's just, Brooke, she will seduce her way back in.
09:15But I'm not going to let that happen.
09:17That's why I'm back here.
09:18One of the big reasons.
09:19I'm going to watch you.
09:20I'm going to make sure
09:21that she doesn't wiggle her way back in.
09:24Dad, tell me you're not going to go back to her.
09:30Tell me you're not going to hurt Mom.
09:32You can't really believe that there's a chance for you.
09:44And, Will, he thinks you're dead.
09:46What?
09:46You're the one who preaches that anything is possible.
09:49For the living, sure.
09:50Well, if you can survive a bear attack,
09:52then I can survive a gunshot.
09:53The bear attack was fake, Luna.
09:57Fake it.
09:58Yeah, that could work if it comes down.
10:00Excuse me? What are you saying?
10:02Nothing.
10:04I just...
10:05I'm afraid you're setting yourself up for disappointment, baby.
10:10I'm dreaming and fantasizing about a life.
10:11A life. A life.
10:13That's exactly what it is, Grandma.
10:15I mean, look at me. I'm alive.
10:16And I'm not in a hospital bed or in prison,
10:19which I never intend on going back to.
10:23Okay, we're all hoping that this attorney,
10:25that Lee is working with this lady...
10:26Yes, and I'm very grateful to Grandma Lee for that.
10:29And if her attorney can figure it out for me, that's great.
10:32But there's no way I'm leaving my future in anyone's hands but my own.
10:42I'm trying to be patient with Rich,
10:44knowing he's in a next-to-impossible position.
10:49Is he, though?
10:51Because it seems pretty straightforward to me.
10:53I think you're a little biased.
10:55Okay, sure.
10:56I'll give you that.
10:57But I'm also not wrong.
11:00No?
11:00Mm-hmm.
11:01Well, I mean, it seems straightforward to us, but not to Rich.
11:05He feels obligated to Steffi, to Thomas,
11:08and last time they broke it off with Taylor,
11:11she suffered a broken heart syndrome.
11:15Great.
11:16Well, Rich and you also have RJ to consider if we're talking about children.
11:23Beyond that,
11:24Rich committed to Taylor under the flimsiest of circumstances.
11:28I mean, he totally misinterpreted why you took the CEO position
11:32when he and Eric were out.
11:35Well, he does admit that he overreacted.
11:39Okay.
11:40And he needs to do the honorable thing.
11:43That means he needs to leave Taylor.
11:46And he needs to do it today.
11:50I'm surprised we haven't heard yet.
11:52I thought Steffi was blasting the news all over social media when it happened.
11:56Oh, I'm sure she's had, but I've just been so busy.
11:59I must have missed it.
12:00Congratulations.
12:03I've never been so happy.
12:05And to make things even better, my son is back in town.
12:08Oh, is he?
12:10Yeah.
12:10Funny, we were just talking about tough love.
12:14Oh, I'm sorry.
12:15Was I overstepping?
12:17It's...
12:18But Thomas did have some difficulties in the past, didn't he?
12:22Is that what you planned to do?
12:26To walk out on mom again?
12:28No, I'm starting to get worried about you.
12:30I'm sorry.
12:31I get a little upset when I think about mom getting hurt.
12:33I get it.
12:34I get it.
12:35But why are we talking about this?
12:37Why are we talking about me getting married?
12:39It's not about my wedding.
12:40Let's talk about your wedding.
12:42I mean, you've been engaged much longer than I have.
12:45Except Paris and I called off the engagement.
12:49You...
12:49Why?
12:50What did...
12:50I...
12:50Did you...
12:51Did you...
12:51Why didn't you tell me that?
12:52I don't know.
12:53It's...
12:54It's embarrassing.
12:55It's not embarrassing.
12:56Did you tell your mom?
12:57No.
12:58No, no, no.
12:58I didn't want to bring her day down.
13:01Look, Paris really hurt me.
13:03And...
13:03I mean, the whole family, after what they did...
13:06And...
13:07Allowing Liam to believe that he was dying...
13:11Oh, I get it.
13:16I don't know what my life is right now.
13:20I have no relationship.
13:22I have no career.
13:24You have no career?
13:25You're in Paris designing...
13:27No, no, no.
13:27I'm not...
13:28I'm not tethered to a line.
13:31Who am I designing for?
13:33Nobody.
13:34Right?
13:35That's it.
13:35I don't have anybody that I'm in a relationship with either.
13:39I always end up alone.
13:41And that's why I need this.
13:44I need our family to be back together, okay?
13:48Don't screw around with Mom.
13:50All right?
13:51And don't screw around with me and Steffi.
13:53I...
13:54I couldn't handle it.
13:55As someone who spent way too much time behind bars, I know exactly what you're feeling.
14:09And that determination to never go back again.
14:14I feel that every single day in my bones.
14:21But to realistically maintain your freedom, it's going to take a lot more than wishing and praying.
14:29Well, that's the great thing about people like us.
14:32When we're backed into a corner, we can make anything happen.
14:37Anything at all.
14:38I'm rooting for you.
14:43I'm rooting for you.
14:46Oh, baby girl.
14:49I have got to get back to the restaurant.
14:53You okay?
14:54I will be.
14:56All right.
14:58I love you.
15:00Love you.
15:01Hopefully in about nine months.
15:17Must have been too soon.
15:20I'm not wishing and praying for a future with Will, Grandma.
15:26I'm making it happen.
15:31I mean, if Rich can admit to you that he made a mistake, then he can damn well admit it to Taylor.
15:38He has to leave her.
15:40And he will.
15:45You know, you don't have to answer if it feels like I'm prying.
15:49No, no, no.
15:50It's fine.
15:51It's not exactly a secret.
15:54Thomas has had his share of challenges over the years.
15:57But I'm proud to say that he has worked hard to overcome them.
16:02Took a lot of time, a lot of therapy, but he's...
16:05He's much, much better now.
16:08And of course, as a mother, part of you will always worry.
16:12Always.
16:13I might hate for him to ever have a setback, but if he does, I'll be there.
16:18Yeah.
16:19Well, I hope nothing happens that will trigger those issues for Thomas again.
16:26He couldn't handle it?
16:27Honestly, no.
16:33Like, I miss you.
16:35And I miss our family.
16:37That's why this...
16:39You and mom getting back together, it means so much to me.
16:44I don't know what my life is.
16:47Paris is gone.
16:51And...
16:52I don't feel like I'm working.
16:55What am I really doing?
16:56And Douglas, he's always hanging out with his friends or he's going to school work.
16:59And...
17:00That's why this is so important to me.
17:06You and mom getting together.
17:08Because I...
17:09I need this.
17:10Look, you were there for mom.
17:16When her heart was broken, you helped take her back up.
17:20You mended her heart.
17:23Don't throw it on the ground and stomp on it.
17:25Can I ask you something?
17:30And I don't...
17:30I don't want to...
17:31I don't want to upset you anymore.
17:34It just seems that you were, um...
17:37Kind of sad and desperate and it reminds me of...
17:41How you were before.
17:44You okay?
17:47I'm fine.
17:50You're not backsliding in any way.
17:52You don't feel that?
17:52You know, I'm feeling...
17:57I'm feeling lost.
18:02And that's why this is so important to me.
18:05You and mom getting back together.
18:07This is the only thing I got going for me right now.
18:13Dad, I need my family.
18:21Rich will come through for me.
18:25He has to.
18:27Our love story won't end.
18:33I almost lost you.
18:37I will never take you for granted again.
18:42Never again.
18:47I'll make it right.
18:50We'll make this right.
18:51I just need my family.
19:07I just need my family.
