your meeting got cancelled. Thanks for coming right home.

mind, I would have driven a hell of a lot faster.
[both chuckling] Mmm.
Everything okay? >> Steffy: Yeah.

fine. I just wanna tell you how happy
I am. >> Finn: Oh, baby, you tell me

mother's desk in the Forrester CEO office--you were there
that day, actually-- >> Will: Yeah, okay, so what
about you two? Do you guys ever get to work with Steffy, like--
>> Lainey: I delivered mail to her when I first started.
But I work in marketing now. >> Toni: I'm in sales.
You'd love it, Will. Celebrity central.
It's honestly really exciting. Actors, rock stars, business
leaders. >> Lainey: Be even more exciting
with you on the marketing team. >> Liam: You know, I completely
concur with that. I think--can I tell you a few
things about this guy? This guy right here?
He's handsome, as you can see. Right? He's honest, he's a good
guy, he's ethical... >> Will: Yeah.
>> Liam: He's, uh, he's a gentleman, he's responsible.
He's an excellent, excellent uncle to his two nieces.
If you will just permit me one more--one more photo of pool day
with the family, you're gonna see what he looks like with his
shirt off. So just hold on one second.
There it is. Look, he's making 'em crack up.
They just--they almost fell into the pool, I think.
And ooh, ooh, ooh, and this is him...

pretty good lately. >> Steffy: It has been really

Mom's back in town, and I really think she's gonna stay this

to share it with you. Every bit of joy in our life...
it really is because of my strong, sexy husband.
You really are my hero. ♪♪♪
>> Liam: You know, it's funny when you think about it--my two
little girls could grow up and work at Forrester, just like
you guys. You know, it's actually funny
what an abundance of talented, eligible women work there, huh?

too. >> Liam: Bingo.
>> Sheila: Liam, Will, how's your meal?
>> Liam: Uh, hey, Sheila, what's up? I didn't know you were
working today. >> Sheila: Oh, actually, I'm
taking over for, uh, for Deacon today, but I don't recognize you
two beautiful young ladies. Have you been to Il Giardino
before? >> Lainey: I have. I'm obsessed
with the arugula and vodka sauce pizza.
>> Sheila: Yeah. >> Lainey: So good!

Glad to have you here. You know what?
I am going to send dessert over on the house--how's that sound?

my daughters. >> Lainey: That would be great.
But, you know, um, we really actually have to get back to
work. We have this big meeting today.
It's a whole thing, so... >> Will: Right, okay...

me? [Liam snickering]
[Will laughing]

you weren't just thinking about me modeling lingerie.
You were-you were thinking about kissing me too.

We bring out the best in each other.

always there. >> Finn: And I always will be.
No matter what. >> Steffy: Sounds like a hero to
me. >> Finn: Babe, I love that's how
you see me... and I wanna be that for you and
the kids, but sweetheart, we saved each other.
>> Steffy: Dr. Finnegan, have you forgotten how we met?
>> Finn: [chuckles] No, I got called into the hospital room
and saw the most beautiful woman I've ever seen.
>> Steffy: [laughs] Okay, that's what you saw, but
it wasn't like that for me. I was in so much pain, and it
wasn't just because of the motorcycle accident.
>> Finn: Yeah, but I could tell you were a fighter.
You just needed someone to stand by you, help you recover.
Steffy?

with so much compassion, I knew right then and there...
that is the man for me. That is the man I'm gonna spend
the rest of my life with. ♪♪♪

taken by you, Will. >> Will: Uh, they had to get
back to work. >> Sheila: Okay.

dessert. >> Sheila: You know, I can
box it up. >> Liam: Oh, no, no, no.
Thank you. So nice. No, thank you.
>> Sheila: Yeah, but the girls, they seemed to appreciate my
gesture, Liam. >> Liam: Yeah. How's this for a
gesture--check, please.
>> Will: Listen, bro, you're a good guy.
You're a family man, and I respect that.
I hope one day I'm as good a dad as you are, but I gotta
say...you are the worst wingman I have ever seen.
>> Liam: And you're saying that showing strangers photos of
small children over and over again is a turn-off?
>> Will: Yeah, I think just-just a little bit.
>> Liam: Just...mmm. >> Will: So, um, you been dating
at all since you and Hope split? No, I get it.
You're focused on work and your kids.
So what about their mothers?
Yeah. >> Liam: Uh, well, Steffy is,
um, Steffy's happy with, uh, Finn.
He's a great stepdad to Kelly, and I support that.

And not just as a businesswoman, no, I--
I see you. I see your passion,
I see your strength. Your beauty.

I think you are. The way you affect everyone
around you... including me.
>> Hope: Well, I've always felt like I could open up to you,
Carter. I mean, I...I trust you.
And lately, though... I thought maybe it was feeling
a little different. I thought, "Is there something
there?" But now to find out that you--
you actually do think about me this way, I...

>> Steffy: You really put me back together.

and... I walked in and I saw you, and I
just... I knew.
One look at you, and I knew. I knew that I had to help you,
get to know you, but most of all...
I wanna be the man that you can depend on.
>> Steffy: I felt it... this sense of security I
never experienced before. >> Finn: It was like we bonded
on a cosmic level. [Steffy chuckles]
Well, that's-that's how I knew something was wrong when you
went missing. I just-I kept telling everyone
that you were in trouble. >> Steffy: There you were.
You saved me again. [Finn chuckles]
You did. [sighs] Oh, wow.

I know you'll never let anything come between us...
or tear us apart. ♪♪♪
>> Will: Look, it's probably none of my business, but nobody
ever actually told me what happened between you and Hope.
>> Liam: Uh... well, long story.
Bottom line is Hope, uh, kissed another man, and I happen to
despise that man, so... >> Will: And then she got
involved with him. >> Liam: It wasn't all her
fault. I mean, my connection to Steffy
was also weighing heavily on Hope, and she put up with that
for as long as she could until she couldn't.
>> Will: Do you miss her? >> Liam: Of course.
Every day. >> Will: So tell her, man.
>> Liam: Oh. That's a nice thought.
[laughs] Um, I just--I don't think it--
I-I think we've been through too much.
>> Will: Well, if you still feel something, let her know.
Tell her that you miss her, that you love her.
Maybe you guys can still patch things up.
>> Liam: Ha. That's not really how it works.
>> Will: Listen, it's not gonna work if you don't give it a
shot. All I'm saying is that she's
available, you're available. You both love Beth and being
a family. She might miss it as much as
you do.
>> Carter: Be honest.
You had to have known how I felt--I couldn't have hid it
that well. >> Hope: Well, I mean--[sighs]
Did you not see how I admire you?
I mean, Carter, the way you care,
how you lead with such compassion and strength.
I mean, you don't just care about the bottom line.
You genuinely care about every single employee.

>> Hope: Mmm. >> Carter: Look, Hope, I know
you've been struggling, that you've been having a hard time
at work and your personal life, and it can be discouraging...
but that's not your whole story. No, when I look at this time in
your life, it's like a... it's like a rebirth, right?
Like-like-like the reemergence of who you really are.
>> Hope: Oh, you mean like The Logan rising from the ashes?
>> Carter: Yes! Yes, absolutely. And exceeding everyone else's
expectations. Becoming exactly who you really
are. >> Hope: I-I admit
that I may have defined myself by what I didn't want to become.
>> Carter: Mm-hmm. >> Hope: Namely, I didn't want
to become my mother. Does that sound so bad?
I'm s-- >> Carter: No, no, it does not
sound bad. It sounds like
an alluring, beautiful woman with a complicated history.

is that I have hope for your future,
