[ dramatic music ] >> Steffy: I swear, Thomas,
if Dad stays with that woman, I don't know...
>> Thomas: I don't see how he could.
I mean, we're talking about his wife and Deacon Sharpe
boozing it up and making out.
>> Steffy: It's worse than that. That loser spent
the night in Dad's bed with Dad's wife.
>> Thomas: Right? But they were, uh, "fully clothed and
it was over the sheets", like that excuses anything.
>> Steffy: Apparently, it does for Hope,
making every excuse imaginable for what Brooke
did that night.
>> Thomas: I'm guessing you gave Hope a firm talking to
about this whole thing?
>> Steffy: I did. Just like how Mom undoubtedly did
with Brooke.
>> Thomas: Speaking of which, shouldn't we have heard
from Mom by now?
>> Steffy: I think Mom and Dad are together.
They have to be.
I'm sure Dad confronted Brooke--
>> Thomas: Maybe not.
>> Steffy: Mom. Mom, what-- What? What happened?
>> Thomas: What's going on?
>> Steffy: What's going on with Dad?
>> Thomas: Is Dad okay?
>> Steffy: What happened with Dad and Brooke?
>> Taylor: Let me get a word in.
>> Thomas: We just want to know what's going on.
>> Taylor: I know.
>> Steffy: Yeah. Is it over with Dad and Brooke?
>> Taylor: Not according to Brooke.
>> Thomas: What?
>> Steffy: What?
>> Taylor: Yes. Not only is she confident that she
and Ridge will get past what she did with Deacon...
She also claims that your father professed
his undying love to her.

believe Taylor went and told Ridge everything before
my mom even had a chance to.
You know, if she had just stayed out of it

What did Steffy say exactly?
>> Hope: Well, for starters, she's basically rooting
for my mother's marriage to end.
>> Liam: You know, we don't know that it has ended.
>> Hope: I still haven't heard from her and
I'm worried because I've tried texting, I've called,
I've left voicemail-- >> Liam: Okay, but--
But just try not to go there right now because your mom
and Ridge have overcome challenge after challenge
after challenge in their relationship.
There's no reason to think they can't
overcome this too.
>> Hope: Well, I hope you're right.
At least for my mom's sake.
I think I should try calling-- Mom. Oh, my gosh,
I've been so worried.
You okay?
What is it?
Mom.
What happened?

is just saying that to you-- >> Taylor: Honey, we knew
your father was gonna have a difficult time with this.
>> Steffy: Yeah, but he can't ignore what happened
with Brooke and Deacon that night.
>> Thomas: I think Steffy's right. Brooke's gotta be
lying. It doesn't really make sense. Okay,
so she cheats on Dad and then he professes
his undying love for her?
>> Taylor: I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know.
But, I don't think she was lying to me.
What's the point?
>> Thomas: Uh, to save face in front of you?
>> Steffy: Keep from admitting that she lost Dad
for good this time.
>> Taylor: Only she hasn't lost him.
>> Steffy: But we don't know that yet.
Not 'til we talk to Dad.
Then, we'll figure out everything.
Dad. Oh, my goodness.
>> Thomas: What the hell happened to your face?
>> Taylor: Who did this to you?
>> Ridge: It's not as bad as it looks--
>> Steffy: It was Deacon, wasn't it?
>> Thomas: Oh, you went after him for sleeping
with your wife.
>> Ridge: He didn't sleep with my wife the way
you mean.
But yeah, he got what was coming to him.
>> Steffy: What about Brooke?
Did she get what was coming to her after deceiving you
with Deacon?
The lies, the secrets, telling a little boy
to keep quiet?
And, despite all of that, you told her that
you love her?

♪♪♪
>> Hope: Did you talk to Ridge?
>> Liam: Because we know you were planning to?
>> Brooke: Yes.
>> Hope: So, yes, you did talk to him or yes,
you were able to tell him the truth?
>> Brooke: Yes, I did talk to him and I told him
the truth.
But, I think I was too late because apparently
Ridge learned about Deacon and me through a Taylor.
>> Hope: Uh, yeah, we-- Or, I know.
>> Brooke: You know?
>> Hope: Yes, Steffy told me.
>> Brooke: Oh, of course.
Yeah. I'm sure she was thrilled to spread the news.

of things?

Though, I'm not sure that it makes much of
a difference now.

Put this on.
>> Ridge: Ah, it's not necessary--
>> Taylor: Yeah, it is.
>> Thomas: You look like hell.
>> Ridge: Yeah, you should see the other guy.

and Brooke did.
>> Taylor: You know, Steffy, just call Finn, maybe,
and see if he can come by-- >> Ridge: Oh, stop.
Leave him at the hospital.
>> Steffy: Dad, no-- >> Ridge: Honestly, stop.
>> Taylor: You stop.
>> Ridge: No, no, I'm fine. It's not necessary to push him
to come over here.
>> Steffy: What?
>> Thomas: Why not?
>> Ridge: Because the kids don't need to see me like this.
>> Steffy: No, Kelly's out.
And Hayes is sleeping.
It's okay.
>> Thomas: So, Deacon got what was coming
to him, right?
>> Steffy: Like Brooke?
Because it's not all Deacon.
Brooke's responsible, too.
>> Thomas: You can't let her get away with this, Dad.
>> Steffy: Do not let Brooke get away with this.
♪♪♪
>> Ridge: You chose Deacon over me.
>> Brooke: No, no, I-- I didn't do that. No.
>> Ridge: I told you he was gonna put a wedge
between us.
I told you he was going to ruin everything.
And you invited him into our house.
Into our bed, Logan.
Our bed.
I love you so much.
But, I'm tired. I can't-- I can't do this anymore.
>> Hope: I know Taylor got to Ridge first,
which was not her place but once you were finally
able to talk to Ridge and tell him your side
of things, was he able to understand and
forgive you?
>> Brooke: It's just heartbreaking, seeing how
much I hurt him.
How much I let him down.
>> Hope: But you didn't mean to, Mom.
You would never knowingly cause Ridge pain.
>> Liam: Yeah, Ridge has to realize that. He knows
what's in your heart, the-- The love you have for him.
>> Hope: And, his love for you. He's never stopped
loving you, Mom and your love has been
tested over the years.
And yet, it still remains.
>> Brooke: I know. I do.
Ridge was very protective of me. He said, well,
he insisted, that Deacon spiked my drink somehow,
got me drunk, but that isn't what happened, honey.
I drank on my own and Deacon tried to stop me.
>> Hope: And were you able to tell Ridge that?
>> Brooke: Yes. But, I still don't understand
what gave me that urge to drink in the first place.
>> Liam: Hey Brooke, that's an answer you may
never get, but from how it sounds, Ridge understands
that the reason you weren't yourself that night
is because of alcohol.
>> Brooke: I just really thought that we were going
to work through this.
>> Hope: "Thought"? Mom, what do you mean, "thought"?
♪♪♪ >> Steffy: Brooke betrayed
you. Not just with anyone, with Deacon. You have to hold
her accountable.
>> Thomas: She's been doing things like this for so long.
It's gotta stop.
>> Steffy: She needs to understand that she can
never do that to you again.
>> Thomas: Let what Brooke did with Deacon be
the final straw.
>> Taylor: Okay, guys-- Listen. Both of you.
We're all going through a lot right now, but you're
really putting your father on the spot.
>> Steffy: We're tired of Brooke sticking it to him!
>> Thomas: Yeah, and we've watched it happen repeatedly.
Enough, already-- >> Ridge: I heard you,
both of you!
>> Taylor: This is a lot for your dad to process.
>> Thomas: What does he have to process?
>> Steffy: We don't want Dad to go through this again.
>> Thomas: And, he will go through this again with
Brooke because she never learns.
>> Steffy: No, she doesn't.
He already warned her to stay away from Deacon
and she didn't listen.
The moment you turned away, she was kissing him.
She slept in your bed with Deacon,
the man that you despise.
>> Taylor: Okay, okay, just give him some time.
Okay, please. This is a lot.
Plus, he just got in a fight with Deacon.
>> Ridge: I still think he did something
to make her drink.
>> Thomas: Okay, let's say he did.
That doesn't absolve Brooke of anything.
>> Steffy: Mom talked to Brooke. Brooke gave her
the impression that you forgave her.
I--I don't care what excuses she had or how hard
she threw Deacon under the bus, but--
>> Ridge: She didn't throw him under the bus.
She was making sure he was okay. She was defending him.
♪♪♪
>> Brooke: Ridge was furious with Deacon.
He thought that I had been victimized,
that he orchestrated this whole night and he got
me drunk. And then, he just left.
He said he needed some fresh air.
Then, Taylor stopped by.
She wanted to tell me that she knew what happened
between me and Deacon that night.
Which I was already aware of because she told Ridge.
>> Hope: So, in other words, she came by to gloat.
>> Liam: Yeah.
>> Brooke: Yeah, it certainly seemed that way.
She was trying to act professional.
She made it very clear that she believes that
I drank in order, "To give myself permission,"
to be with Deacon, which isn't true at all.
>> Hope: Of course it's not.
Did you tell her that?
>> Brooke: Yes, I did.
But at that point, I was so worried about
Ridge and if he went to see your father.
Made me nervous, so I ran out of here
and I went to Il Giardino.
>> Liam: Did you find Ridge with Deacon?
>> Brooke: Yes, I did.
It was horrible.
They were there.
They were both bloody, they were fighting.
>> Liam: What?
>> BriijeL Ridge was punching him over and over again.
>> Hope: Oh, my God.
>> Brooke: I know, I ran in there and I pulled them
apart. I told Ridge to stop it,
that Deacon didn't do anything wrong.
I did. And, he just stopped and looked at me.
And he couldn't believe that I was defending Deacon.
And at that moment, everything just...shifted.
>> Hope: Shifted how?
>> Brooke: Ugh. He told me that he believed me,
you know, when that happened with Bill, that something
like that would never happen again.
And yet, there it is.
I did the same thing.
>> Hope: Mom.
Hey.
>> Brooke: But he loves me, honey. I know he does.
He told me he loves me.
But, then he told me he-- He couldn't take it anymore.
And he turned around and he walked out that door.
And-- I'm just afraid that
I may have lost my soulmate forever.
>> Steffy: Brooke actually defended Deacon to you?
>> Ridge: Yeah. And I don't get it, after everything
this bastard's done to her.
And now, she expects me to-- >> Thomas: Just forgive
and forget?
That's classic Brooke Logan.
She breaks your trust and then she turns on
the waterworks.
>> Steffy: And tells you that you two are destiny
and you forgive her, like you always do.
>> Ridge: Well, this time's different.
>> Taylor: How is it different?
>> Ridge: It's different because I can't do this
anymore. First, it's Spencer and now Deacon.
It's too much.
>> Thomas: You're damn right it's too much.
It's a never ending cycle with that woman.
Enough is enough.
>> Steffy: I agree, Dad.
I know it's hard walking away from
your marriage but-- >> Taylor: He didn't say
he was walking away from his marriage.
>> Steffy: Well, did you?
Did you end it with Brooke?
>> Ridge: I had to.
>> Steffy: Oh, Dad.
I'm sorry that Brooke did this to you.
But, maybe it's good to finally be free of her,
free of all of Brooke's toxicity and drama.
It's really nice to know that you came here,

for so many years and this is how she repays you?
By sharing a bed, your bed, with the man who got
her pregnant while he was married to her daughter.
This is the man that you can't stand.
But did that stop her from bringing Deacon back
into your life, into her life?
Of course not!
Because Brooke Logan plays by her own rules.
To hell with who she hurts, including you.
