At the Forrester Estate, Eric can’t wait to tell Quinn how much he loves her in front of everyone. Talk turns to what’s taking so long. Ridge worries that Brooke is up there, but Flo assures that Paris is with them — they’re probably making friendship bracelets by now.

Upstairs, Brooke presses her ear to the door as Paris tells Quinn it was just the other day she was on her knees saying she held her life in her hands and now she’s threatening her. Quinn snaps that Paris is the one threatening her, and her marriage, on the day she’s supposed to be renewing her vows. She warns, “You’re not going to tell anyone what you know.” Quinn suggests Paris leave — she’ll tell everyone she’s having stomach problems. As Quinn exits, Brooke hurries into the room and informs Paris she’s going to tell her what she’s hiding — for Eric’s sake.

At Forrester, Donna lets Katie know she’s there for her given what’s going on with Bill. Katie says that goes both ways. She knows something is bothering her sister, and she knows what it is — Eric and Quinn. Donna knows it’s been years since they were married, but she can’t help it… they were some of the happiest days of her life. Donna laughs at herself being so silly and nostalgic. Katie reassures her it’s only natural she’d thing about those memories today. Donna sighs over her time with her “Honey Bear.” Katie teases that she better not let Quinn hear her call Eric that.

Upstairs, Brooke stops Paris from leaving and works to convince her that Eric is about to be deceived and deserves to know. Paris sighs.

What they believe isn’t how it went down at all. She wanted to come forward before… Brooke deduces that Quinn wouldn’t let her. Without Paris saying a word, the blonde realizes that Carter didn’t turn to Shauna — he turned to Quinn. Quinn! Who is downstairs right now ready to profess her love to Eric! Paris nods.
