04:51yeah i gotta be honest sheila the things i already know are a bit troubling to say the least
04:56right my past is a little iffy iffy i would really love for you to get to know the sheila
05:03that is standing before you right now it's a sheila that loves your dad more than anything
05:10and i'm hoping one day you'll see it that way too that you'll believe in our marriage the way that
05:17your dad and i do things with sheila you can't be surprised i'm asking she's one of the main reasons
05:25you wanted to get into therapy fair enough um actually i feel pretty confident about things
05:33pretty positive well that's good to hear how was thanksgiving i'm assuming hope and deke steered clear
05:42yeah i don't know it's like it's like sometimes i feel like i'm making progress with them you know
05:49like today deke was over at the restaurant and um you know he was perfectly polite with sheila i mean
05:54they're you know they're not embracing or anything but i mean i think it's a start as far as all of us
06:00spending thanksgiving dinner together we're not quite there yet i spent time with the kids then sheila
06:06and i had a really nice dinner for two you know we talked about gratitude um things we're thankful for
06:14your name came up my name sheila's incredibly grateful that i came back to her
06:20she uh she gives you all the credit believes that you saved their marriage
06:32borrster creations only exist because of eric his dedication his talent nobody's denying that
06:40ridge understands the legacy he's inherited see that that there that's exactly it
06:46it they haven't inherited anything because eric's still here thank god we're all so grateful
06:58especially rich really well maybe if he could just express it once in a while
07:05he should welcome working with his father again it's not up to me donna whatever is decided
07:20is between rich and eric you can't be surprised at this rich of course i want to step in and do this
07:26beautiful collection with my son of course you've already done it we've done this you did a final line
07:32and it was amazing it was gorgeous but it almost put you in the grave so i'm not asking you to do
07:37that again no you're not asking me this is coming from me rich this is uh this this is a collaboration
07:43it's not a competition like that was you stepped away from this and rightly so i didn't step away
07:48i haven't put a pencil down since i left the company i haven't
07:53i'm a designer i'm an artist no you are one of the greatest designers in the world dad you
07:58you changed fashion who can say that nobody you did that and now it's time to do something else
08:06go off into the sunset do something that's what i would do if i were in your shoes you're not in my
08:10shoes rich you can't possibly know what it feels like for me to be standing here in this room like
08:18this right now you can't know do you remember what it's like hard work the sleepless nights
08:35you know what you did you asked me to do that and i'm doing it i can do it i take the frustration
08:42i take the headaches so you don't have to my god
09:01why is this the reoccurring theme in my life what do you mean people claiming to change
09:06that they aren't who they used to be that's because they do people can change sure but
09:14people like you yeah i changed i changed because of your father truly and i would love nothing more
09:22than to just live a nice simple life with him now look at this that's not entirely true
09:32true because i would love to be accepted embraced by his children
09:45take you and hope your dad me
09:50we're a family i realize that sheila is appreciative but i can't take credit for that
10:03i mean you can downplay it all you want but sheila thinks that you are the great savior that rescued
10:07our relationship look marriage family acceptance love these things mean more to sheila than you can
10:15imagine well i'm happy for the two of you if the acceptance is really there do you think that sheila
10:26will ever really be accepted by your family by hope and deke
10:37of course eric should be on the design team he created this entire company look let's just here sit
10:44down sit down sit down okay haven't you been enjoying all this time that you've been spending
10:57with eric right all the day trips you've been taking and that cruise you guys had together
11:04i mean none of that would have happened if eric was still working
11:09and now what you want him back in the office every single day you know how he is when he throws
11:16himself back into work no he's gonna be the first one here in the morning and he's gonna be the last
11:21to leave at night no i'm not gonna let him push himself to his limit like that not not not after
11:27what happened last year now would i prefer to have him all to myself 24 7 of course
11:34but that that wouldn't really be fair of me to ask him to give up something that he loves so much
11:44it wouldn't really be fair bridge either please get through to him because eric he needs this
11:53he needs to be in the thick of things he he can't just be some figurehead watching from afar
11:59eric is and always will be a designer
12:08until his dying day you're telling me it's frustration and heartache and how difficult
12:15that is you're telling me this none of that matters because in the end you have this collection
12:20in the beautiful gowns yes it's all beautiful and yes it's all worth it but it's not worth
12:25putting your life on the line for it it's not worth it let us do what we do and then come
12:29back and watch the show you know just watch this watch the show i don't do that i don't mean that
12:34that's that's not what i'm i mean go up on the stage talk to the buyers to talk to yeah i love that
12:40i love that but richard's the work itself the work itself is covered that is covered
12:46you asked me to do this you asked me to take over the company i got it
13:07i'm sorry i've got this short
13:16you know what i'm really excited about your sister's wedding oh yeah you uh you like weddings
13:34oh my gosh of course i mean who doesn't like a wedding i mean the romance the
13:40the fact that two people are committing their lives to one another
13:43but this wedding that gives me the opportunity to show you and hope that i can be a part of your
13:50lives this is really so special and when i am at hope and liam's wedding on your dad's arm
14:01that's going to show everybody that the sharp family is truly united
14:06i don't know i have to hope that they will you know hope that hope and deke will
14:14eventually see sheila the way that i do it's like two steps forward one step back you know and
14:20unfortunately sheila covering for luna was an enormous step back and it's one that i don't know
14:26know if they're going to be able to forgive it's understandable you struggled with it yourself yeah
14:34you know i i don't blame them you know they're worried for me maybe another family session in the
14:41future yes especially because hope and liam's wedding's coming up it's a big day for your family
14:47yeah you don't want things to be uncomfortable do you think that sheila will be welcomed in an ideal
14:56world let's talk about the world we're in i don't know taylor she's my wife you know i mean she's
15:04technically hope's stepmother i'd like to think that hope would want her there but
15:08i gotta admit i don't know if she's gonna get an invitation and if she doesn't she's gonna be
15:16devastated hey hey how did that go how did it go with my dad you mean what did he want to talk
15:30about oh he never gotta believe it he wants to jump back on the couture line oh yeah i can believe it
15:36after some of the things that donna was telling me donna's encouraging this she's supposed to keep
15:41him healthy oh i think she was trying to in her own way you know his mental health and if he still
15:46wants to be a part of it i don't know if he wants to be part of it i don't know at this point it just
15:51seems like it's a habit you know and but he's had such a great career but now it's over he's got to hang
15:58it up what if he doesn't want to hang it up no one wants to hang it up no one wants to do that
16:04ask anybody any any professional athlete or or actor or model everything is great and then one
16:09day it's it's done it's over my dad at least he had a swan song he put this whole beautiful line
16:17together and it was great and it almost killed him almost put him in the ground i get it it's hard for
16:23him but it's my job to keep him safe okay you didn't tell him about the party did you i didn't tell
16:35him about the party what are you no no no no still a surprise what did you say to him
16:42so that everything that he has in his life he's earned
