00:00Okay, Hope. I'll talk to you later.
00:09Me too.
00:15I love that.
00:17What?
00:18That.
00:19Beautiful smile.
00:21Well, there's a lot to smile about.
00:24You and I are married again.
00:27Hope and Liam are back together, and I couldn't be more thrilled for them.
00:35That is a reason to smile, for sure.
00:38Everything's working out for the people that I love.
00:41Yeah, it's true. We are blessed.
00:44Yes. Something I would never take advantage of.
00:49Same.
00:53But there is somebody that I'm still concerned about.
00:58Taylor.
01:09Deacon.
01:10I didn't mean to sortle you.
01:12I know our appointment's not for another ten minutes.
01:14Another ten minutes, right?
01:15But the sooner we get started.
01:17Get ready.
01:18Now that you're back with Sheila.
01:23Enjoy yourselves.
01:24All good here?
01:28Let me know if you need anything else.
01:34Looks like things are going well.
01:37Steffi.
01:38Hi.
01:41Well, I'd heard that you were back in town.
01:45Welcome back.
01:45I mean, how are things going, okay?
01:48After what Luna tried to do to me?
01:52Or Liam?
01:53Or you?
01:57Look, I'll never understand how or why you kept the secret about Luna from everyone.
02:01Let's go.
02:26I'm sure you can imagine my shock when Finn told me.
02:52I thought I'd never have to hear Luna's name again.
02:56Yeah, well, a lot of people felt the same.
02:59Well, we thought she was dead, Sheila.
03:02And she almost was.
03:04But Lee pulled off another miraculous life-saving event.
03:08I mean, she brought our granddaughter back to life.
03:12Something you kept from all of us.
03:15Until you got caught.
03:18I understand that you're upset.
03:21It was a nightmare, Sheila.
03:24I thought we'd never be confronted with that kind of evil ever again.
03:28And you won't be.
03:30Because Luna is in prison, so you can just go on living your life.
03:33Just like you.
03:35Apparently, without any repercussions.
03:39No, actually, I almost lost my marriage to Deacon over all of this.
03:48Meaning, what, you kept the truth from him?
03:53You deceived him like you did all of us?
03:56I betrayed him terribly.
03:58And he moved out.
04:00But he's back now.
04:02And he's giving our marriage and me a second chance, Stuffy.
04:06And I...
04:07I could not be more thankful.
04:10I do realize we've discussed this before.
04:19Taylor is the mother of your children.
04:22And you may not be married to her, but of course, you're gonna be concerned about her.
04:27Are you okay with that?
04:29Yes, I am.
04:30Why wouldn't I be?
04:32You should be concerned.
04:33But Taylor's a strong woman.
04:36And she knows that clinging to what might have been wouldn't move her forward in life.
04:42And of course, she wouldn't want that.
04:44So, I wonder where her future might take her.
04:53I should say, I already know how Sheila feels about your commitment to your marriage.
04:58Hmm.
04:59She came to see me in person to thank me.
05:02I'm aware.
05:03She told you?
05:04Well, she thinks she owes you everything.
05:06I mean, she can't thank you enough.
05:08But in reality, I'm the one who can't thank you enough.
05:11Taylor, you've been like a lifeline to me.
05:13One that I don't want to lose.
05:28What did you just say?
05:30Oh, what?
05:31About Taylor saving my marriage?
05:34How is that possible given the way she feels about you?
05:36Okay, you think your mother hates me.
05:38For everything you've done to her and my family over the years, yes.
05:42Okay.
05:43That's fair.
05:45I was sick back then.
05:46I was very disturbed and I'm not that person anymore.
05:49Deacon has opened my heart.
05:52He has helped change me.
05:54He has helped me become who I am today.
05:57But Sheila, I didn't last.
06:00He walked out on you.
06:02He moved out.
06:03He did.
06:04But he decided to seek therapy and your mother agreed to see him.
06:14Are you serious?
06:16My mother agreed to see Deacon.
06:18I am.
06:19I am.
06:20Your mom helped Deacon work through his issues with betrayal and they were all very valid because I did betray him.
06:29Yes, for keeping the secret about Luna from him.
06:31Yeah, but for whatever reasons I had, it was still a betrayal.
06:38Okay, so my mom...
06:41She...
06:42Yeah.
06:43Your mom literally brought my marriage back from the brink, as only Dr. Taylor Hayes can.
06:51And she became a sounding board for Deacon and so much more.
06:59Taylor saved my marriage to my husband.
07:03And I will forever be in her death.
07:12Taylor's a very accomplished woman and her career is very important to her.
07:17Right.
07:18But I don't want her work to be her life.
07:20Do you know what I mean?
07:21Mm-hmm.
07:22Yeah.
07:23She is a world-renowned psychiatrist, but she's also a devoted mother and grandmother.
07:28And she just loves her family.
07:30She spends a lot of time with them.
07:32She would do anything for them.
07:34I know that.
07:35It's true, but I'm looking at things like what I've done now.
07:38Look, I...
07:40I understand that you don't want her to neglect her own happiness.
07:44Right.
07:45I get that.
07:46Because that's who she is.
07:47She's always been that person, right?
07:48She puts other people's happiness before her own.
07:51She's selfless like that.
07:53Yeah.
07:55And you and I, we are blessed.
07:58And I would like it if everybody could have this kind of happiness.
08:02Even Taylor.
08:05And who knows?
08:07Maybe she's on her way.
08:08On her way to what?
08:09No relationship?
08:10No man?
08:11You want to be my patient.
08:12Permanently.
08:13Well, the fact of the matter is, I've got a lot of demons inside and I need to exercise
08:14them.
08:15And, you know, that's not going to happen overnight, right?
08:16No joke.
08:17About the demons?
08:18Yes.
08:19I don't have them.
08:20Literally, but...
08:21Good to know.
08:22You know, I mean, I've reunited with Sheila, but I still feel like I want to see you as your
08:29patient.
08:30You've made a lot of progress, Deacon.
08:46I've made a lot of progress, Deacon.
08:51I've made a lot of progress in my marriage.
08:54I want to become the man that I know I can become.
08:59And in order to do that, I've got to grow.
09:02And I think you can help me with that.
09:04And there is one more other important thing.
09:08What's that?
09:10I believe I can help you, too.
09:19Take these down to shipping, by the way.
09:21Come on in, Mrs. Ford.
09:23It was a better city.
09:24I said, it's different.
09:25We just have some nice memories.
09:28Absolutely, we will.
09:30Okay.
09:31Ciao, Giovanni.
09:33I will.
09:34Yes.
09:35Okay.
09:35Ciao.
09:36That man can talk.
09:38Giovanni says hello.
09:40And he says, next time we're in Rome, he wants to take you out for a special dinner.
09:45And I have to pay.
09:46Oh, that would be lovely.
09:50I just don't know when we're going to get out of here.
09:53And head over to Rome anytime soon.
09:55That's what I told him.
09:56It's the price of success, right?
09:57Yeah.
09:58I guess it goes with the territory.
10:00You and I have to guide Forrester forward.
10:03The same way you want to guide Taylor forward.
10:06Come on, that's not...
10:07No, I'm not jealous or insecure or anything like that.
10:12In fact, I admire you.
10:15I do.
10:16For caring so much about Taylor.
10:18And so do I.
10:20Even though you broke Mom's heart again by calling off your engagement and marrying someone else.
10:27Oh, I'm sorry.
10:29I promised myself I wasn't going to say anything, but here we are, so...
10:33It's okay.
10:34No, it's...
10:35It's not okay.
10:38But hey, it's your life.
10:40It's your situation.
10:42Obviously, I want you and Mom back together, but it didn't happen.
10:46Look, I know you're always going to care about Mom, so...
10:48Yeah, that's what we're just talking about.
10:51Just wondering what she's doing.
10:53Yeah.
10:54I'm sure she's super busy.
10:56Oh, she's so busy.
10:57Yeah, always.
10:58She's spending a lot of time with the grandkids, I'm sure.
11:01Oh, yeah.
11:02They're the light of her life, and she's the light of theirs.
11:06That's good.
11:07I'm happy for Kelly and Hayes.
11:09And Taylor.
11:13Steffi, I mean it.
11:15I do care about your Mom.
11:19Brooke does mean it, and I do, too.
11:23I know Brooke cares about Mom, and I know you care about her, too, but there's no point staying in the past.
11:27It's not that she would stay in the past.
11:30No.
11:31No, Mom is, uh, she's really, really busy.
11:34She's focused on the future.
11:35I've got a lot of things to do.
11:37I mean, but you spend time with her.
11:38I mean, so what is, uh, what is she up to?
11:46You can help me.
11:48Absolutely.
11:49Hmm.
11:51Yeah.
11:51Um, I can see the beautiful doctor is a little skeptical.
11:55Well, it's not that.
11:57Exactly.
11:58No, I did.
11:58Listen, I get it.
11:59I mean, you have a good reason to, because I don't have all those fancy letters after my last name like you do, but, uh, there is something I do have.
12:08I'm almost afraid to ask.
12:12Instincts.
12:13I've got the ability to see what somebody's been through, understand it, to see what you've been through.
12:22Hmm.
12:23You know all about that.
12:25All the gory details.
12:26I don't know about all of them, but, uh, I think I'm pretty familiar with how Ridge has jerked you around over the years, what that must have done to you, and Brooke's contribution.
12:38That's an interesting way of putting it.
12:42But it is spot on.
12:43I mean, you know, Brooke has been a major part of the heartache that you've had over the years.
12:49She kept coming for Ridge, even when she knew that he was committed to you.
12:54Look, I'm not trying to bash Brooke.
12:56I mean, we share a kid together.
12:57But I can see things from your perspective.
13:02Well, because you've had first-hand experience.
13:05Although, in a slightly different way.
13:09Right.
13:10Because you are-
13:10You and I are Ridge and Brooke's roadkill.
13:14That is the technical term.
13:17Look, I just want you to know that I'm here for you, the way you've been here for me.
13:23Thank you, Deacon.
13:25It means a lot that you care so much.
13:27How could I not?
13:28After everything you've done for me?
13:30I mean, you helped me get my head on straight.
13:33Maybe I could do the same for you.
13:36Help me get my head on straight?
13:38Yeah.
13:38No, I mean, you know what I mean.
13:42I do.
13:43And I appreciate your concern, but it's really not necessary.
13:47I have my family.
13:49I love my work, helping my patients.
13:52You're an incredible woman.
13:53And you're also the best shrink in the biz.
13:57But I want to know if you're truly, really happy, Taylor.
14:03You want my take on mom's life these days?
14:17I don't want to overstep.
14:19This is between you and your mom.
14:21No, I know you're concerned about mom.
14:25I know it's genuine.
14:30She's fine.
14:32But first, I want to say something about what I came home to, your instant marriage to Brooke.
14:39Brooke, you made promises to mom and you broke them again because of what happened in Italy.
14:50Brooke almost drowning.
14:53You almost lost your Logan.
14:54That's when things changed.
15:00Do I like it?
15:02No, I don't.
15:03I don't like that mom's been pushed aside again.
15:11But I understand what drew you back to Brooke.
15:14And mom understands it, too.
15:20And I understand why she would have resentment towards me again.
15:22No, she doesn't.
15:23She doesn't.
15:25She's done wallowing.
15:27She's going to bounce back like she always does.
15:30So you're saying?
15:31I'm saying that you don't have to worry about her.
15:35Mom's changed.
15:36It's like something new and exciting is driving her.
15:42Another man, perhaps?
15:44You'd like that, wouldn't you, Brooke?
15:45Well, certainly.
15:47Nobody wants to be alone.
15:49Mom's not going to be alone.
15:51I told her she's going to find someone.
15:53Someone who truly loves and appreciates her.
15:56And is always going to want her to be happy.
16:00Are you, Taylor?
16:02Are you truly happy?
16:03Because nobody deserves it more than you.
16:08I mean, all the lives you've impacted, the people that you've helped.
16:11You really are a saint.
16:15So I've been told in the past, but not in a flattering way.
16:19Look, we've really gotten off track here.
16:22This is supposed to be about you.
16:25You're the patient.
16:26I'm the doctor.
16:27Remember?
16:28I think helping you is going to help me.
16:31Deacon.
16:31Okay, look, I get it.
16:32I get it.
16:33All right.
16:33You know, you've got everything under control, right?
16:37You know, the fact that you and Ridge were engaged, that he was going to finally commit
16:42to you again.
16:44And then he just blew you off for Brooke.
16:47Again.
16:47You've got that all handled, right?
16:50You've dealt with all of that and you're good now.
16:51Or at least that's what you tell yourself.
16:56But I have to wonder, have you ever truly acknowledged to yourself how destructive and abusive this whole back and forth thing that you and Ridge have had for years has been to you?
17:07I mean, the toll that it's taken.
17:09I mean, Taylor, you had broken hearts in your room, for God's sake.
17:14Yeah, and Ridge is the one that helped me heal from that.
17:16Because he's the one who was largely responsible for it.
17:19Listen, here's the thing.
17:22I'm not trying to upset you and I'm not trying to bash Ridge.
17:26I get that the two of you have a very special bond because you have kids.
17:30Okay, but that's why you keep trying to make it work with the father of your children.
17:36And that's admirable.
17:39But here's the thing.
17:41Steffi and Thomas, they're adults.
17:43They don't need their mom and dad back together again.
17:45What they need is their amazing mother to feel fulfilled.
17:50And that's something that is not going to happen with Ridge because it's never happened with them.
17:54At least not to the extent that you deserve it.
17:57Look, you know what I'm saying is right.
18:03Deep down, you know everything I'm saying is true.
18:06And as much as you have sacrificed and tried to make this relationship work,
18:11Ridge isn't the guy for you.
18:14So if there's even a tiny part of you that's sticking around,
18:17hoping that Ridge and Brooke's marriage is going to implode so that you can go...
18:20Of course not that.
18:21Didn't cross my mind.
18:23Good, because enough's enough.
18:24You know, you shouldn't put your happiness, your life on hold for one second more.
18:30Ridge is in the past.
18:31Put him there.
18:32Firmly.
18:33Completely.
18:34Once and for all.
18:37And realize what I do.
18:40There is no one, and I mean no one,
18:43that deserves to be appreciated,
18:46admired,
18:48respected,
18:49and loved
