00:28Hey.
00:30Hate to interrupt, but the design that you left at home.
00:34Perfect. Perfect. Let me see.
00:36Oh, great.
00:38Yeah, this one.
00:40Here we are.
00:42All right.
00:44Well, it's not a complete collection, but it's enough to show to Ridge and Brooke right now.
00:48He says he's too busy, but when he sees this, he's gonna change his tune.
00:52They all will.
00:54Eric Forrester is back.
00:57Okay.
01:07Well, let's place those right there.
01:11I think that is great.
01:13And the last thing that we need is the ice bucket and champagne.
01:17Got it right here.
01:19Oh, perfect.
01:21Well, I think that's it.
01:23Thank you for your help, Tara.
01:25Of course.
01:27Thank you for your help.
01:29Thanks for setting all this up.
01:30Oh, yes.
01:31Well, only the best for Eric.
01:33It's really coming along, right?
01:37Yeah, it is.
01:39Big day.
01:41Along the way to retirement party.
01:43I'm not gonna lie.
01:55I really do enjoy it when my hot husband comes to my office.
01:59Yeah?
02:00Mm-hmm.
02:01Should I stop by more often?
02:03Oh, I don't know about that.
02:05You're a little distracting.
02:07Fair enough.
02:08Babe.
02:09So, um, everything all set for Eric's party?
02:17Um, yeah, I think so.
02:21Hey, what's going on?
02:24You alright?
02:25No, I just, I just want this retirement party to go the way my father hopes, but I am a bit concerned how my grandfather is gonna take all of this.
02:35Well...
03:05It feels like Granddad's last show was ages ago.
03:30And that's why Ridge keeps insisting that Eric's official retirement is long overdue.
03:35Yeah, no, I get it.
03:37But we need to build him up the way he's built this company.
03:40Return the love, sweat, and tears he put into it.
03:43Well, look, I agree with Dad.
03:46Granddad has worked way too hard for so long.
03:49He needs to prioritize his health.
03:51He needs to just live a nice, calm life.
03:54He's earned it.
03:56And you're worried that Eric won't see it that way.
04:01Well...
04:02Well...
04:23Everything okay?
04:25Yeah, no, I was just thinking about the last time my dad approached me by doing a collection.
04:31Maybe his lying fear showed up.
04:33That's how it was in the beginning.
04:34He wanted to do something together for his legacy.
04:37Say his words.
04:38Yeah, you remember.
04:40It was his grand finale.
04:43It was a huge success.
04:44Almost killed him.
04:46I know you're worried about him.
04:50So am I.
04:51Well, that's why we gotta do this right now.
04:54Before this company puts him in the ground.
04:59See that?
05:00The clean, clean lines.
05:02The classic silhouette.
05:03It's beautiful, eh?
05:04It makes it easily recognizable as Eric Forrester originals.
05:08Well, yes.
05:09Yeah, but it's different.
05:10I've changed fabrics.
05:11It's smoother now.
05:13It's younger.
05:14I like it.
05:15It has more energy.
05:16But they're...
05:17And you've never seen anything like this from me.
05:20They're incredible.
05:21They're inspired.
05:23In fact, I want to be wearing this one right now.
05:26Ooh, I'd like to see that.
05:28It would blow everybody away.
05:30I've...
05:31You have been working so hard and...
05:34Wow, the living rooms turned into a design studio again and half the dining room tables...
05:40Well, everything, everything's gonna be back to normal soon.
05:43I promise.
05:44No.
05:45No, that's not what I'm saying.
05:46My goodness.
05:47I love seeing you back in your elements, you know, designing endlessly and...
05:53I'm just concerned.
05:55Don't, don't, don't, don't.
05:57Don't do that.
05:58You're starting to sound like everybody else.
06:00Worried about my health.
06:02Don't.
06:03You sound like Ridge.
06:04You know, your concern for Eric makes sense.
06:19This is fragile.
06:20But you're not coming from a mean or greedy place.
06:25You're coming from a place of love.
06:27You want to reduce your grandfather's stress and have him have a healthy future.
06:34And, Steffi, retirement helps with that.
06:39Even if he doesn't see it.
06:40Yeah, it could be hard for him.
06:42I think it might be difficult for him to let it go because it's been his identity.
06:46I mean, look, yeah, he had his last show.
06:50He showed it to the entire world.
06:52Shouldn't he go out on top, pass the baton, so he could just chill out and relax and enjoy life?
06:59You know, I feel like Eric will understand.
07:02He, he may even be more open to stepping down than you think.
07:06Especially if Ridge and everyone is expressing their gratitude for what he's built.
07:11Yeah.
07:12Yeah, and then he can pass it on to his son and his granddaughter.
07:17He may not like it, but it's something.
07:22But I agree with Dad.
07:25It's time.
07:27You are a loving son who is only looking out for his father.
07:31It's obvious how much you care.
07:33It's just...
07:34Why does it sound like you think this is a bad idea?
07:37I just wonder how he's gonna react to this retirement.
07:42I know I wonder that too, but you know what?
07:44I think he's gonna be alright eventually.
07:46Yeah?
07:47Not right now.
07:48It's gonna take a minute, but this is what we're doing this.
07:50We're celebrating his mark on the fashion world.
07:52Okay.
07:53But the question is, is he really ready to walk away from Forrester's creations?
07:57Who's questioning it?
07:58This is Donna?
07:59Is that what Donna's saying?
08:00Oh, she had some compelling points.
08:02Okay, I have one compelling point.
08:05I need my dad alive.
08:07So we need to do this now.
08:12Okay?
08:13Okay.
08:14Hey, guys.
08:15Wanted to see if you need any last minute help before the Guest of Honor arrives?
08:19I told you Brooke would have it under control.
08:23I should have never doubted you.
08:25Oh, well, thank you.
08:26But you know, I didn't do this all by myself.
08:28Oh, is that the cologne I asked for?
08:30Oh, is that the cologne I asked for?
08:31Oh, yes.
08:32One of a kind son for one of a kind man.
08:35It's very thoughtful.
08:37He's gonna cherish that.
08:39I can't believe today's the day.
08:42Eric Forrester steps down.
08:44Your dad's been a force in my life over the years, Ridge, and I've just been wondering
08:48how I could repay him for all the knowledge and guidance.
08:51Listen, we all feel the same way.
08:52That's what we're doing this party today, right?
08:54To celebrate the man that did all this, for this company, for everyone in it.
08:58There's no doubt that he deserves to be celebrated, and I'd never question your love for your father,
09:05but I do question whether Eric should have to accept this.
09:09You know, this work, all these drawings, I mean, it takes all my energy.
09:20It takes everything.
09:21It overcomes me.
09:22The last person I expected to criticize me for that is you, is my wife.
09:28I am not criticizing you, but as your wife, I am concerned about what the added stress is doing to you.
09:37Okay, you're working so hard.
09:40One hour after dinner turns into all night, and I promised myself I would not let you push yourself past the limit.
09:49Do you know what time you finally came to bed last night?
09:54Do you?
09:56It was 3 a.m.
09:58No, I know, I know.
09:59I lost track of time.
10:00I lose track of time every time I'm doing this.
10:04I do, and I'm not...
10:06It's what I want to do.
10:07It's what I want to create.
10:08I don't apologize for that.
10:10I'm not one of those people that you need to prove something to.
10:15I already know how great you are.
10:20You're my honey bear.
10:23But what I do want is for you to...
10:27To find some...
10:29Some happy medium, okay?
10:33You can get the rest that you need knowing that these designs, they're gonna be there for you.
10:39In the morning.
10:41Alright.
10:42I think I can do that.
10:48Look at this.
10:49Look at the fruits of my labor.
10:51You already know how fabulous I think they are.
10:55Yeah.
10:56These are gonna be the cornerstone of the new Couture Collection.
10:59I just...
11:00I just need to get these in front of Ridge.
11:02There is no way that he's...
11:04He's not gonna see this vision.
11:06Gonna take the fashion world by storm.
11:08I'm gonna do it.
11:09And it starts today.
11:11Today.
11:24I mean no disrespect, Ridge.
11:26I come from a different part of the world.
11:28A culture that views elders with more reverence than this.
11:32More reverence.
11:33You think I don't respect my dad?
11:37Because I do.
11:38This is why we're doing this.
11:40Ridge is only looking out for Eric's best interests.
11:43Perhaps don't count him out just yet.
11:46He still has a lot to offer.
11:48No one's discarding Eric.
11:51We're aware of the legacy he built here.
11:53Okay.
11:54Well, if you all believe this, maybe you should be asking yourselves.
11:57Shouldn't Eric be allowed to do what he wants and decide his own future?
12:02Oh boy.
12:03Feels pretty intense for a party.
12:04Mm-hmm.
12:05I was only explaining that in many other part of the world, we would never push an elder out.
12:20Well, this elder is not just an elder.
12:22He's my dad.
12:23We're doing what I think is right for him.
12:26But I don't have to explain that too.
12:28Let's ask the good doctor.
12:29What do you think?
12:30My dad almost killed himself last time he did that.
12:33Now that he's older, shall you do it again?
12:35What are your thoughts?
12:36Ultimately, as a doctor, I do support this.
12:41Getting Eric to reduce his stress levels, get him to focus on his health and his well-being, it's critically important.
12:48Well, listen to that.
12:52If it's okay with you, I'm gonna text my dad, tell him to come over.
13:01Ridge keeps brushing me off.
13:03You know, he thinks I don't, uh, I don't have it in me.
13:06But when he sees this, he will see that, uh, I'm still Eric Forrester.
13:11Of course you are.
13:12You know, it's a shame that Ridge has to be reminded of it again.
13:16Yeah.
13:17Yeah, I know.
13:18He just wants me to back off.
13:19He wants me to separate from work, you know?
13:22But...
13:23Well, you know, I mean, you know, I always fully support you.
13:27But, uh, that actually doesn't sound too bad.
13:30You know, finally getting back to Amsterdam in the spring and summers in the south of France.
13:36Sounds pretty good.
13:38Yeah.
13:39But I'm not there yet.
13:40I'm not ready to do that yet.
13:41I still have to work.
13:42I need...
13:43I need to design.
13:45You understand, right?
13:47Yeah.
13:49Yeah.
13:50Speaking of Ridge, he wants to see me in the office.
13:53My office.
13:55Yeah, well, I can't wait to get him in here to see these designs.
13:59He will see that I'm still Eric Forrester.
14:01He'll see.
14:05You still believe in me.
14:06You believe in this, right?
14:07You believe in me, Donna?
14:08Right?
14:09Of course I do, Eric.
14:11I'm always Team Eric.
14:13But this is so much more than just putting out another line, getting another line under my belt.
14:18This is...
14:19This is the beginning of a whole new chapter.
14:21This is...
14:22This is proof that my career is still going strong.
14:26This is the beginning, today.
14:28Today's the beginning of a new chapter.
14:31My new chapter at Forrester Creations.
14:34You still don't see it, do you?
14:44The work we do here, the stress of this company is too much for someone my dad's age.
14:50So we're trying to do the right thing.
14:52We're trying to open a door for him to a better world.
14:55You know?
14:56Something where there's no stress.
14:57Just happy thoughts.
14:58And as soon as he embraces that, he's gonna love it.
15:01We almost lost my dad.
15:03And listen, I don't know what the cultural difference is.
15:05But in this family, we love each other, and we protect each other.
15:09Even that means protecting him from himself.
15:12But what if Granddad fights us on this?
15:15And we fight back.
15:17This is what he needs, and eventually he's gonna agree with us.
15:21Surprise!
15:23Surprise!
15:26Okay, what's this all about?
15:28This is all about you, Dad.
15:30Yeah?
15:31All right, good.
15:32Because I want to talk to you.
15:33You might want to talk to you, too.
15:34We all want to talk to you.
15:35We want to congratulate you, this icon of industry.
15:40Congratulations.
15:41Um, Eric.
15:42I can tell you're speechless, but like Rich said, we're here to celebrate you and your incredible contributions as co-founder of this company.
16:00That's right.
16:01That's right.
16:02And now you can just enjoy yourself and no more stress.
16:07Enjoy your life with Donna.
16:09Yeah.
16:10Granddad, we are so happy for you.
16:15You've had an incredible run.
16:18A run that's over today?
16:20Never over.
16:23Your legacy will live on forever, not just in this family, but in everyone that you've taught over the years.
16:30No one more than me.
16:32I get to learn from the Master, and now it's time for the Master to rest.
16:37Oh, to rest?
16:38You mean like, like permanently?
16:42Like six feet under?
16:43Don't do that, Dad.
16:44Someone.
16:45Donna was talking to me earlier about prioritizing and about not burning out before I get a chance to do everything I want to do in this life.
16:57And the one thing I want to do more than anything else is design, because that's all I care about, and that's what I'm going to be doing until the day I die.
17:06Stephanie and I founded this company, and we built this company from the ground up, right to where you're all standing right now.
17:22And you said it.
17:23You're right.
17:24You're right.
17:25This is my legacy.
17:26And because it's my legacy, I get to decide.
17:29And I decide not to do this.
17:33I don't accept this.
17:35I'm not doing this, Rich.
17:38Yes, you are, Dad.
17:40Yes, you are, Dad.
17:41Here's a look ahead.
17:45Welcome to the wedding of the year.
17:47Hope Logan and Liam Spencer.
17:48Crashing that wedding would be a crazy thing to do.
17:50You think I'm crazy.
17:51You'd never listen to a word I said.
17:52Just everything you say.
17:53I will not be put out to pasture.
17:55I will not be put out to pasture.
