>> Steffy: It's just awful.

Emma was so young.

>> Liam: [ Sighs ] I know.

I think about all the times

we all drove on that road.

>> Steffy: I know.

Such a horrible accident.

Like, I know it's been a few

days, but do you think we should

really be doing this?

Like [Sighs] a beach party

seems, I don't know...

>> Liam: No. No.

>> Steffy: ...inappropriate.

>> Liam: Listen, you --

You had this planned

way before Emma passed away,

for one.

>> Steffy: Yeah. Yeah.

>> Liam: And it's just family.

It's gonna -- It's fine.

It's okay.

>> Steffy: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

You're right.

And, like, you know, the girls

are babies, but, you know, I

want them to know their cousin.

>> Liam: [ Sighing ] Yeah.

I mean, it'll be nice

to see Douglas.

I'm not super psyched about

spending the day with your

brother.

>> Steffy: Well, you know what,

today's not about us,

and I think it might be good for

Hope.

Get her mind off of Emma's

death.

>> Liam: Hope is coming?

>> Steffy: Well, Thomas is

hoping she might be here, yeah.

>> Liam: Oh.

>> Hope: Hi.

>> Brooke: Hi.

Don't you look cute and summery.

>> Hope: Yeah.

I'm going to Steffy's with

Thomas and Douglas

for a beach party.

>> Brooke: Yeah,

you mentioned that.

I'm surprised you want to go.

>> Hope: Well...part of me

doesn't, but, uh,

like Thomas says, I need to

move on with my life.

>> Brooke: How do you feel?

>> Hope: Like I want to stay in

my room and not see anyone.

But I know that's

not good for me.

>> Brooke: No, that isn't good.

But I'm not sure that spending a

lot of time with Thomas

is good for you, either.

>> Thomas: [ Grunting ]

[ Cellphone rings ]

Yeah. What's up?

Yeah, you got it?

Okay, good. Good, yeah.

Yeah, just drop it by the house.

Okay, cool.

Yeah.

Yeah, I got a big day planned.

>> Brooke: You shouldn't let

anyone pressure you into doing

anything that you're not ready

for.

>> Hope: It's a day

at the beach, Mom.

If I can't handle that, then...

>> Ridge: Hey.

You're still here.

I thought you were headed over

to Steffy's.

>> Brooke: She's not sure

she's up for it.

>> Ridge: Oh.

>> Hope: I'm fine.

I don't want to let

Douglas down.

And besides, I'm excited

to see the girls.

>> Brooke: Bet it must be hard

to see Liam and Steffy together.

>> Hope: I'm the one who ended

the marriage and insisted that

Liam move in with them.

Besides, it's not like they're

back together in that way.

I don't think so.

[ Door opens ]

>> Steffy: I'm all ready.

Why don't you put your suit on?

>> Liam: Uh... Yeah.

I probably should.

Hope and Thomas will be here

soon, won't they?

>> Steffy: Yeah.

Well, hopefully the sun will

stay out, and it'll be

nice and warm.

>> Liam: Yeah.

Honestly, I'm a little less

worried about the weather and

more worried about

dealing with Thomas all day.

Listen, I -- Sorry.

I don't trust him, and I don't

trust his interest in Hope.

>> Douglas: Daddy?

>> Thomas: Hey, buddy.

You don't have your swimsuit on.

>> Douglas: I don't think

I want to go.

>> Thomas: But we're going to

Aunt Steffy's.

We're gonna see your cousins.

And we need Hope to come, too.

>> Douglas: Why?

>> Thomas: Why? Well...

Well, everything's better when

we're with Hope, right?

Come on. It'll be fun. Okay?

>> Douglas: Okay...

>> Thomas: Come on.

Let's hear some excitement.

I want to hear some enthusiasm

from you, right?

>> Douglas: Okay, Daddy.

It'll be fun.

>> Thomas: That's my boy.

Trust me, kiddo.

This is a day I don't want to

miss.

♪♪

>> Douglas: I don't like

that stuff.

It makes my hair crunchy.

>> Thomas: Well, too bad.

We need you looking

extra handsome.

>> Douglas: Do I have to go

swimming in the ocean?

>> Thomas: Well, not if

you don't want to.

But we'll be hanging out with

Kelly and Phoebe.

That'll be fun, huh?

>> Douglas: But they're babies.

I'm a big guy.

>> Thomas: Yeah, you are.

You've gotten to be a really

big boy.

Here. [ Grunts ]

Oh-kay!

Well, that looks pretty good,

huh?

>> Douglas: Not bad.

>> Thomas: [ Chuckles ]

Okay. So when you see Hope,

you're gonna give her a big hug,

okay?

And, uh, we need her to be

excited to see us, so it needs

to be an extra big one.

You got that?

>> Douglas: Sure.

>> Steffy: Okay, I got

margarita mix, wine.

Hope likes rosé, right?

>> Liam: Uh, yes. She does.

I hope she's, um...

I hope she's okay with all this.

>> Steffy: Well, she wouldn't

come if she weren't.

>> Liam: Yeah, well [Sighs]

your brother can be

pretty persuasive.

>> Steffy: Hope likes being

around the girls.

Phoebe's like her favorite

person on the planet.

>> Liam: I know, but, like,

don't you think it'll be a

little weird for Hope to be here

with you and me, together,

with the kids, and --

>> Steffy: This is what Hope

wanted.

And I don't know, maybe Thomas

is good for her.

She's been spending a lot of

time with Douglas.

They've been through a lot.

>> Liam: I-I know, but Thomas is

just -- he's -- Aagh!

I just don't like the way he,

like, moves in on her, you know?

>> Steffy: Okay, stop.

>> Liam: He's so intrusive --

>> Steffy: Can we not --

Can we not focus on Thomas?

Please?

This is about getting the

cousins together.

It's about the children.

And our family.

>> Liam: Okay.

>> Ridge: I think you should go

and have fun.

Jump in the waves and enjoy the

ocean air.

>> Brooke: Only if you're

feeling up to it, sweetheart.

Otherwise, I think you should

stay home.

>> Douglas: Hope!

>> Hope: [ Squeals ]

Oh, my! [ Laughs ]

That is quite a hug.

Thank you very much, Douglas.

That was very sweet.

Heh...

>> Thomas: Aww.

>> Brooke: Uh, I-I was just

telling Hope that maybe you and

Douglas should go over to

Steffy's by yourselves.

>> Thomas: Oh, that's no fun.

I-I know you might think it

will be hard for Hope to be

there, but Douglas is really

looking forward to her coming

with us, aren't you, buddy?

>> Douglas: Yeah!

>> Hope: Yeah? [ Chuckles ]

Mom, it'll be fine.

I promise, I'll be okay.

>> Brooke: Are you sure?

>> Ridge: You should go enjoy

yourself.

And take some pride in knowing

that you helped reunite a

family.

We're all in this together.

>> Thomas: I couldn't agree more

with Dad.

[ Knock on door ]

I'll get it.

>> Thomas: Uh, you got it?

>> Vinny: What do you mean,

do I got it?

Of course I got it.

>> Thomas: Good.

>> Ridge: Vinny? Is that you?

>> Vinny: Hey, Mr. Forrester.

>> Ridge: Hey, what's going on.

It's been a long time.

Brooke, look who it is.

You remember Brooke, right?

>> Vinny: Yeah.

Hi, Mrs. Forrester.

>> Brooke: Hi, Vinny.

>> Vinny: It's good to have

Thomas back in town, huh?

I've missed this dude.

>> Thomas: Yeah.

Uh, Vinny just, uh,

came for some advice.

>> Ridge: Okay.

Is it something I can

help you with?

>> Thomas: Oh, no, no, no.

It's just a personal thing.

But, uh, we'll just be a minute.

>> Ridge: Okay.

>> Thomas: Yeah.

>> Vinny: Damn, bro.

It's been a while.

You're living with your

hot stepmom.

Man, oh, man!

>> Thomas: All right, all right.

Just, uh -- just give it to me.

>> Vinny: Okay, chill.

>> Thomas: This stuff is good?

Huh? It'll do the trick?

>> Vinny: It's the best.

>> Thomas: It better be.

I got a big day and night

planned.

>> Brooke: All this talk about a

beach party made me want to hang

out by the pool with my very

handsome husband.

>> Ridge: Yeah.

>> Brooke: Mm-hmm.

What do I have here? Oh!

Shoulders, please.

>> Ridge: Hmm?

Oh, yes, ma'am.

>> Brooke: A little sunscreen.

Oh!

>> Ridge: How's that?

>> Brooke: Oh, that's perfect.

Thank you.

I just hope that [Sighs]

my daughter made the right

decision, going over to

Steffy's house.

>> Ridge: She's a grown woman.

Yes, I think she made the right

decision.

>> Brooke: Yeah, but

she can be so hard on herself.

I think she's feeling pressured

to move on with her life.

>> Ridge: You think Thomas

is pressuring her?

Do you? Really?

>> Brooke: Yeah, I do

a little bit.

I just think she needs to work

through these changes on her own

and be alone for a while.

I don't think she needs to rush

into a relationship with Thomas.

>> Ridge: Hey.

What are you worried about?

The relationship or Thomas?

>> Brooke: Both.

[ Sighs ]

You know what, maybe, um...

Maybe you should give Thomas

a break.

He's having a tough time, he's

learning how to be a single

father, and he likes Hope.

I'm not sure what the problem is

with that.

>> Brooke: Well, I think that

it's too soon.

I think she's still hung up on

Liam, and it's gonna be hard

for her to let him go.

>> Ridge: They had the

marriage annulled.

And that's it.

They're not together anymore.

It's what Hope wanted.

>> Brooke: Somehow, Hope was

convinced that that was the

right solution.

>> Ridge: [ Sighs ]

Um, well, maybe it is

the right solution.

For the girls and for Hope.

>> Brooke: Do you

really think so?

>> Ridge: Yes.

Here's a man who's not caught

between two women.

He's there just for Hope.

Sounds good to me.

>> Brooke: I respect the way you

feel.

But we can't forget all of the

things that Thomas has done in

the past.

>> Ridge: But we can, 'cause it

is the past, and we're trying to

think about the future.

And maybe we could not be so

negative about my son.

What do you think?

>> Hope: Hello?

>> Thomas: Hey, guys. Hello?

>> Steffy: Hi!

[ Gasps ] Hi, there!

Thomas.

>> Thomas: Hi.

>> Steffy: Wait, who is this

teenager you brought with you?

>> Douglas: It's me,

Aunt Steffy.

It's Douglas.

>> Steffy: What? No way!

You're so, like, big and strong!

Whoa!

Look at you! [ Chuckles ]

>> Hope: It's good to see you.

>> Liam: Yeah, you too.

I'm glad you came.

>> Thomas: Hey, man.

>> Liam: Hey.

>> Hope: Um, so, where are the

girls?

>> Steffy: Oh, uh, the girls are

still napping, but they'll be up

soon, especially with so many

visitors.

But most importantly

to see their cousin.

I got you some toys.

>> Douglas: Oh, cool.

>> Steffy: Yeah.

We can build a -- a sand castle.

How about that?

>> Thomas: You know, if you want

to go in the water, Hope, I'm

sure, would want to go with you.

You'll be in good hands with

Hope.

>> Liam: A-anybody want a beer

or...?

>> Thomas: Oh, I'm good.

>> Hope: Um, I'll have a water,

please.

Great. [ Clears throat ]

>> Steffy: I'll be right back.

>> Hope: What'd she get for you

over here?

>> Thomas: What is over here?

>> Liam: It's jus-- it's so

obvious what Thomas

is doing right now.

He's just --

He's just, like, using Douglas

like a little pawn.

>> Steffy: Can we please just

make this a happy, positive day?

Please?

Thomas, can you help me with the

hummus and the pita?

>> Thomas: Yeah, sure.

>> Liam: Here you go.

>> Hope: Thank you.

>> Liam: Sure.

>> Hope: [ Sighs ]

>> Liam: Uh, y-you know, we also

have the, um -- the --

those carbonated, fruity

ones in a can that you --

that you like.

>> Hope: Oh, this is --

this is great, thanks.

>> Liam: Cool.

Hey, hey, why don't you go play

over there for a second,

Douglas?

Could you do that?

Thanks.

Yeah, we got a nice

thing set up.

Listen, while I have you alone,

um...

This is totally out of line.

I know that.

Do you have to spend

all your time with Thomas?

Because I really don't

trust him.

[ Sinister music plays ]

>> Brooke: [ Sighs ]

>> Ridge: Hope is gonna be okay.

>> Brooke: I know. But...

>> Ridge: She's your daughter.

I understand.

>> Brooke: She's just very

fragile right now.

She needs some time to get

through all of this, and

she needs some space.

And I wish Thomas would

realize that.

>> Ridge: I think he does

realize that, and they all need

some time to heal.

>> Brooke: [ Sighs ]

>> Ridge: And I think Hope is

helping Thomas and Douglas,

and maybe, in a way, they're

helping her, too.

>> Brooke: I just

worry about her.

>> Ridge: Don't worry about her.

He's a good kid.

He's -- he's a good designer,

and he's working hard, and he's

committed to this company

and to this family, and he's --

he's a great dad.

You can't dispute that.

>> Brooke: I know, Ridge.

She's just so fragile,

and she's so trusting, and...

>> Ridge: I think everybody

wants her to get back

to who she was.

And who knows?

Maybe Douglas and Thomas, maybe

they're part of that journey.

Is there any way you could at

least be open to that?

>> Thomas: I'm -- I'm so glad

we're doing this.

Thanks for having us.

>> Steffy: We're happy you could

make it.

We need to do this more often.

>> Douglas: Where are my

cousins?

>> Steffy: They're napping.

But we can check the monitor,

see if they're awake.

Come on.

>> Liam: So, Thomas, um...

Steffy told me

some of the details surrounding

Emma's death.

She said you two were arguing?

>> Thomas: I wouldn't

call it an argument.

It was just more of a

discussion.

>> Liam: Oh, yeah? About what?

>> Thomas: Emma wanted to dance

for the next Hope For The Future

fashion show.

I didn't think it was a good

idea.

I mean, it doesn't work with the

line, we've done it before.

We can't just do the same things

over and over again.

I guess her feelings got kind of

hurt.

>> Liam: That's why she was that

upset?

That's why she needed to speak

to Hope immediately?

>> Thomas: Okay, it's not my

fault she reacted the way she

did.

I was trying to be reasonable

with her.

I was trying to keep her

from going to Hope, but...

[ Sighs ]

She just kept pushing.

[ Phoebe coos on monitor ]

>> Hope: Phoebe's awake.

>> Steffy: Douglas, you want to

get her with me?

>> Douglas: Sure.

>> Steffy: We need to be really

quite just in case Kelly is

still napping, okay?

>> Douglas: Okay.

>> Steffy: All right, let's go.

Let's go! This way, this way.

[ Laughs ] Silly.

>> Hope: I can't wait to see

her.

>> Thomas: Hey, I know you got

a real soft spot for Phoebe,

but you're still mourning

the loss of Beth.

Maybe it's not a good idea you

spend too much time with her.

>> Liam: Uh... Are --

Are you for real right now?

How -- how is that any of your

business?

Hope has been finding comfort in

Phoebe ever since we lost our

daughter.

Steffy's fine with it.

I'm fine with it.

I mean, if you -- [ Scoffs ]

If you understands Hope's

connection to Douglas, you

should damn well understand her

connection to Phoebe.

[ Stammers ] And even though she

is not our daughter, she is

welcome here, Thomas.

She is welcome here any time to

see Phoebe.

>> Thomas: You're right.

Okay. Yeah.

Phoebe isn't Beth.

And...

Beth is gone.

And as much as I wish she could

come back, that's never going to

happen.

Look, I'm -- I'm sorry, Hope.

Yeah, I-I have no idea how hard

this must be for you,

and that's why.

That's why I thought maybe

you shouldn't get too

attached to Phoebe.

>> Hope: I like being around

her.

>> Steffy: Look who it is!

People who love you most in the

world.

There's Auntie Hope and

Uncle Thomas and Daddy.

[ Chuckles ]

>> Hope: Can I hold her?

>> Steffy: Yeah, of course.

Here you go. Ready?

Whoosh!

>> Hope: Whee! Hi!

Hi, sweetie. I missed you.

I think about you every day,

Beth.

Oh, my God.

>> Liam: Hope? Hey.

Hey, you okay?

What -- what's going on?

>> Hope: Beth?

Beth...
