Finn’s Tense Encounter With Vinny in the Lab Leaves Him Puzzled

At the apartment, Thomas demands to know if Vinny altered the paternity test and robbed Finn and his sister of their child. “If you did, and you don’t come clean, I’ll never forgive you.” Vinny complains that the doctor Steffy’s involved with is full of himself; he ran into him a couple times at her house. Thomas looks outraged as Vinny suggests she dodged a bullet. He claims he ran the test, that’s it, and science and DNA gave the answer. Thomas warns, “You’d better not be lying to me,” as he walks out.

At the doctor’s office, Finn tells Steffy his focus isn’t on the paternity test, but on her and the baby. Finn makes a reservation for a special dinner just as Dr. Campbell joins them. She’s happy he’s supportive. Finn confirms he loves Steffy and the baby. They watch the ultrasound together and Finn talks to the unborn baby. Steffy sighs; the only thing that could make her happier is if he were the father. She’s glad he came with her to the appointment. Finn admires the beautiful fetus in the photo and they laugh. Steffy’s grateful to have him in her life.

Wyatt arrives outside the Spencer Publications office in time to hear Flo worrying to Shauna that the Logans will never accept her. He enters and advises her not to rule it out. Shauna agrees. Flo recounts what she has to be grateful for and feels greedy acting like she’s missing something — it just hurts that her father’s family is right there but she can’t be close with them. “And it’s all my fault.” They go over how the Logans have been pleasant but distant even after she donated her kidney to Katie.

At Forrester Creations, Wyatt’s plea to welcome Flo to the family replays in Katie’s mind. Brooke enters and asks what she wanted to see her about. Donna joins them and learns Katie’s called them there to discuss Flo. Suspicious, they wonder what she’s done now. Katie chastises them and reminds her sisters that she’s Storm’s daughter. Brooke doesn’t think she can forgive Flo for the role she played in keeping Beth from Hope and Liam.

Katie reminds Donna and Brooke that Flo saved her life. Donna feels it was loving and selfless. Katie reminds them they’ve all been given second and even third chances. She believes they should forgive her, if only for Storm’s sake. Donna’s willing to give it a shot — it’s what their brother would want. Brooke sighs, “I’ll try. That’s the best I can do.” Katie calls Flo to summon her.
