B&B is bidding farewell to Stephanie!
While discussing how their lives have been coming apart, Donna and Brooke both wind up saying more than they’d intended to. Brooke tracks down her son and admits to Rick the real reason she came back to town without Ridge. This isn’t news that makes Rick feel any better. He’s already starting to feel bad about his role in breaking up Hope and Liam.
Continuing to unravel, Katie has serious doubts about her capacity to be a mother. Brooke and Bill realize that, even together, they still aren’t enough to get through to her. They decide to seek professional help and turn to Taylor. While Brooke is talking to the shrink, the two women begin discussing Thomas and how much he’s changed lately. It’s clear that there are other things bothering Brooke too. Taylor can’t help but notice that her old enemy’s emotional turmoil is bubbling over onto the surface.
Even though Stephanie is facing a big fight, that doesn’t stop Eric from having a problem with how she’s handling things. They have an argument about it and he winds up heading back to Forrester. Things aren’t exactly going swell around the office. Thomas’ first act in power was throwing Rick out the window and things haven’t gotten much smoother since. Since he’s obviously starting to crack, Donna decides that he could use some advice from her. Meanwhile, Pam turns to her sister for a big favor and Stephanie turns to Brooke with news that will shake her.
