Stephanie learns Pam’s mistake, Ridge and Brooke come to a new understanding, and Taylor vows to get Ridge back.
Stephanie urges Taylor to fight for Ridge, but Taylor doesn’t want to interfere in someone’s marriage. Stephanie tells her their problems with Rick have caused a rift in their marriage, but Taylor won’t throw herself at the feet of a married man because she has too much self-respect. Stephanie continues to push her agenda on Taylor, but Doc sticks to her moral code. She admits nothing would make her happier than to see Brooke and Ridge break up, but she won’t live her life clinging to a dream. Stephanie thinks Rick is coming between Brooke and Ridge and urges Taylor to keep an eye on Steffy because Rick will come sniffing around again.
Pam continues to berate herself for her mistake and worries what Ridge will think when he finds out what she’s done.
Ridge assures Brooke nothing happened while he was at Taylor’s. Brooke trusts him, but isn’t so sure about Taylor and thinks it’s inappropriate for him to run to his ex-wife whenever they have problems. Brooke thinks Taylor would be happy to see their marriage fail and then talk turns to Rick and how Ridge teamed up with Taylor. Ridge wanted Steffy to see how demented Rick is without her around and his plan worked. Brooke can't believe the pleasure he is taking from this and thinks it’s tragic. Ridge thinks what happened to Phoebe is tragic and is concerned about Steffy because she is vulnerable. He thinks Rick won’t stop where Steffy is concerned because he hates to lose. Ridge wants Rick gone and he’s concerned how Rick continues to affect their marriage. He says until Brooke opens her eyes and sees her son realistically he doesn’t see how they can get through this. Ridge wonders if Brooke continues to defend Rick because she feels guilty about how he was raised. Brooke wishes she could have given him a more stable upbringing living under the same roof as his father. Ridge reminds Brooke Bridget was raised the same way and she turned out okay. He tells her she is a great mother and only Rick is responsible for his issues. Brooke admits she has felt guilty and realizes she has to really look at what’s going on with Rick. She feels that Rick has no one left and she’s the only person who understands him. She doesn’t want to abandon him, but Ridge tells her she is allowed to disagree with him and that she needs to cut the apron strings. Ridge wishes they could get away from all of this and go back to those two people on the beach when they got married away from the world and from her son. Brooke tells him Rick will always be in their lives and Ridge wonders what they will do now. Brooke suggests they weather the storm and points out that one of their problems is gone since Rick and Steffy have broken up. Ridge needs Rick to stay away from Steffy and respect her decision. Brooke thinks he will and she will no longer support any involvement between Rick and Steffy. She promises that Rick will never touch Steffy again. Ridge thanks her because he really needed to hear that.
Stephanie comes to Forrester Creations to see Ridge, but runs into Pam who tells her he is with Brooke. Pam brings Stephanie into Eric’s office so they can talk privately. She tells her sister she put in the wrong social security numbers and wrong dates for Ridge and Brooke’s marriage license. Stephanie is confused so Pam explains that in order for their wedding to be official they went to city hall and had a quickie wedding. They asked Pam to fill out the paperwork and then had their ceremony. Pam just got paperwork back saying their marriage is invalid. Stephanie laughs and calls Pam a miracle worker.
Taylor looks at a family photo and recalls her life with Ridge and thinks about how much she wants him back. She believes that it will happen and then fantasizes about them reuniting in bed.
