Original subtitles

>> Hope: I'm not sure what

you expect me to say.

>> Flo: That you can give me a

second chance to start over and

be the cousin that I really want

to be.

>> Hope: And you think you

deserve that after what you did?

>> Flo: No.

>> Hope: I was told

my baby died.

>> Flo: I know.

>> Hope: Yes. You did.

You did know.

You knew Beth was alive.

You knew what that man did.

And still you said nothing.

>> Flo: If I could go back and

change that, I would.

But I can't.

All I can do now is try to

make it right with you.

>> Hope: All those months I lose

with my daughter, you -- you

think you can make that right?

>> Flo: No, I-I can't.

I-I know I can't make that

right.

But what I do know is that

I don't want to lose you.

And I care about you so much.

And I will do whatever it takes

to prove that to you, and to

prove to you that --

that you can trust me again.

Please, Hope.

>> Shauna: Well, say what you

want, but I really think that

Flo is gonna get through to

Hope.

>> Donna: [ Laughs ] No.

No, I don't think so.

>> Shauna: Weren't you the ones

that told me how close you

Logans are, and how loving and

supportive?

>> Katie: Yeah, not when it

comes to stolen babies.

>> Ridge: Hey. What's going on?

>> Brooke: Ridge, hi.

>> Ridge: What is she doing

here?

>> Brooke: [ Sighs ]

Shauna's trying to convince us

that Flo did nothing wrong.

>> Shauna: That's not what I'm

saying.

Of course Flo did something

wrong.

I did something wrong.

I'm just...

I'm trying to ask for

a little forgiveness.

>> Ridge: Oh, wait.

You're serious.

>> Shauna: Flo never

intended to --

>> Ridge: We don't care

about her intentions.

We care about her actions.

Actions that will land her

in prison.

>> Wyatt: Congrats, man.

>> Liam: Thank you.

[ Laughs ]

Yeah, thank you.

>> Wyatt: Is that weird to say?

Like, I mean, it doesn't really

feel like a "congrats" kind of

situation.

It's more like a "your nightmare

is over, and I'm incredibly

happy for you."

>> Liam: Well, it's true.

I mean, for the first time, it

doesn't feel like a dream

anymore.

Beth is back.

She's back! [ Laughs ]

What are you -- what are you

doing?

>> Wyatt: I feel like my brother

is pretending to not cry, so I'm

gonna give him a hug to make us

not feel uncomfortable.

>> Liam: I'm not crying.

You're crying.

>> Wyatt: No, I'm not crying.

You're crying. Heh.

>> Liam: She's back, man!

>> Wyatt: [ Laughs ]

>> Liam: She's alive.

She's alive.

It's like my brain is struggling

to process it, but...

>> Wyatt: I mean, I guess it

does actually feel like a

"congrats" kind of situation.

>> Liam: Yeah. I think it does.

♪♪

>> Wyatt: What? What is it?

>> Liam: Uh...

Dad and Justin are here.

>> Wyatt: Oh.

>> Liam: I hope you don't mind.

I told them I was coming over.

>> Wyatt: No, the more,

the merrier.

It's a celebration, right?

But Justin, too, though?

>> Liam: Uh, yeah, 'cause I

think Dad has questions.

Like, legal questions.

>> Wyatt: Right.

>> Bill: Hey, hey! What's --

Oh, come on! It's just you two?

>> Liam: Hey.

>> Wyatt: Okay...

>> Liam: Come on.

>> Bill: Well, I thought

Hope was gonna be here

with my granddaughter.

>> Liam: You just saw Beth

earlier today.

>> Bill: I got a lot of time to

make up for, Liam.

>> Liam: Yeah, don't we all.

Hey, Justin, how's, uh --

How's your family since Emma...?

>> Justin: Well, we're still

trying to make sense of it.

But thank you.

I-I appreciate that.

Heard about your news.

I'm very happy for you.

>> Liam: It's pretty insane,

isn't it?

>> Justin: Yeah, Bill was

filling me in on the way over.

So, Steffy had the baby the

whole time?

>> Liam: Not -- not that she

knew.

>> Bill: No.

It was just as shocking for her.

>> Liam: Actually, I was over

there earlier, just to check up

on her and Kelly.

>> Justin: You know, I can't

believe that the doctor was able

to pull this whole thing off.

>> Liam: Yeah, well, he

had help.

>> Wyatt: Yeah.

He, uh, certainly did.

>> Flo: I didn't plan any of

this.

>> Hope: [ Scoffs ]

>> Flo: I didn't know what

Reese had done.

I didn't know

what he was involved in

or how much trouble he was in.

If I had known, Hope, I --

I never would have gotten

involved in any of this.

>> Hope: So I'm supposed to

forgive you because this wasn't

your idea?

>> Flo: No.

>> Hope: Because you just...

had to help a friend?

Because you had no idea what was

actually going on?

>> Flo: Thomas knew.

Did you know that?

Thomas knew about Beth.

He knew about everything.

And he didn't want me saying

anything, and he threatened my

life.

Because he didn't want anything

getting in the way of being with

you.

I know that that's --

that's not an excuse, and I know

I should have still come to you

and everything, but I --

>> Hope: I know.

I know about all that.

But what about before then?

Before Thomas?

You had plenty of times to --

>> Flo: You're right.

You're absolutely right.

Please, Hope.

Can you please just --

>> Hope: Forgive you?

No.

Hell no.

Not now. And not ever.

>> Justin: What kind of

doctor -- no, what kind of

person switches babies?

>> Bill: [ Sighs ]

>> Liam: I just didn't

question it.

I mean, I-I should have

questioned everything.

>> Wyatt: Oh, come on.

How could you have known that

someone could do something so

awful?

>> Bill: Well, my guys didn't

get their hands on him, but at

least he's been arrested.

>> Liam: Yeah, in London,

apparently.

I mean, I-I don't know, like,

when he gets extradited

or what happens next.

>> Bill: Oh, I'll tell you what

happens next, Liam.

What happens next is his little

helper, Flo, she gets arrested.

And the two of them

rot in their cells.

>> Shauna: I don't know Hope

very well, but from what I've

seen and heard, she has a really

big heart.

And I think, once she

hears Flo's side of the story,

she'll sympathize.

>> Katie: How does Flo's side of

the story add up to anything

but, "I stole your baby,

I sold it, and then I lied about

it for months"?

>> Shauna: She was helping her

friend.

[ Katie sighs ]

And once she realized that

she was doing something wrong,

it was too late.

>> Brooke: Really?

Because I would have known it

was wrong the minute I said the

baby was mine.

>> Donna: I would have known

the -- the moment I signed

false papers.

>> Ridge: Shauna.

She put a stolen baby

into my daughter's arms

and told her to raise it

as her own.

>> Brooke: Maybe she didn't plan

it, but she went along with it,

and that makes her just as

guilty.

>> Shauna: There is one person

and one person alone that took

that baby.

[ Ridge sighs ]

And that is Reese Buckingham.

So you all should be putting the

blame on him.

>> Ridge: There's plenty of

blame to go around.

Even with Buckingham in custody.

>> Shauna: He --

He was arrested?

>> Ridge: Earlier today.

Oh.

I know what I was gonna ask you.

You're from Vegas, right?

So, what are the odds

of your daughter not getting

arrested today?

>> Shauna: I am begging you,

please.

I'm begging you, please.

She's your niece.

Please!

>> Brooke: She stole

my granddaughter.

She stole her. She sold her.

And then she lied to all of us

about it.

She's not my niece.

She is a thief.

Just like Ridge said.

And that's all she will

ever be to me.

>> Hope: Did you honestly think

that you could convince me to

forgive you?

>> Flo: I guess not.

>> Hope: What you did was vile.

It was despicable.

>> Flo: I-I understand --

>> Hope: No, you don't!

Or you wouldn't have showed your

face here today if you even

remotely understood what you

put me through.

And don't do that.

Don't look like you're all torn

up inside, like you're some kind

of --

[ Scoffs ] Oh, my God.

You think you're a victim

in this.

>> Flo: No. No, I --

>> Hope: Don't.

Don't you dare.

Liam and I

were the ones victimized.

And Steffy, too.

Did you ever think about her?

Her heartbreak?

What it would feel like to adopt

a little girl, to fall in love

with her, only to have her

ripped away?

>> Flo: Of course I thought

about her!

I thought about Steffy

every single day!

>> Hope: And what about Kelly?

How confused she's gonna be

when her little sister

isn't there in the morning?

A stolen baby!

What is wrong with you?

>> Flo: I don't know.

>> Hope: When I think about

month after month

[Voice breaking] and lie after

lie, and you pretending to build

this bond with me --

>> Flo: I wasn't pretending.

>> Hope: [ Sobbing ]

You made me trust you.

You made me care about you.

And you were deceiving me the

entire time!

>> Flo: I was not!

I never -- I never lied about

our friendship.

I never lied about being happy

about being your cousin.

Yes, I -- I kept the truth

from you, but the rest of it,

it wasn't a lie.

>> Hope: Oh, well.

So much for family, then, right?

Even that couldn't make you

do the right thing.

I cannot believe I ever thought

Uncle Storm would be proud to

know you.

>> Flo: Look...

finding out that you were family

only made it that much harder.

I struggled every single --

>> Hope: I don't want to hear

about your struggles!

I don't want to hear about how

many people intimidated you, how

many people bullied you.

[ Clapping ] It does not matter!

You chose silence.

And for what?

For some loser

who sits at your blackjack table

so he can repay his debt.

I had to wallow in agony for

some jackass' gambling problem.

He put a dead baby in my arms

and told me it was mine!

That is who you aligned

yourself with!

That is who you were loyal to!

And that...

[Whispers] That

is what you deserve.

>> Bill: Flo is gonna

serve time for this?

>> Justin: Well, that's a pretty

safe bet.

>> Liam: I mean, I --

I want to put this behind me,

but I'll testify.

I know Hope will.

>> Justin: You might want to

plan for that, especially if she

pleads not guilty.

>> Wyatt: She won't.

She's not gonna fight this.

>> Liam: You don't think so?

>> Wyatt: [ Sighs ]

I mean, I'm not -- I'm not sure

about her at all, or the type of

person she is now.

I do know she's not faking

remorse.

I-it seems like she's ready to

face the consequences.

>> Bill: Well, she's gonna face

the consequences whether she's

ready or not, Wyatt.

>> Liam: Wyatt, just so you

know [Scoffs] I hate Flo for

what she did, and I always will.

>> Wyatt: I know.

>> Liam: But I know that you

care for her, and I know that

your feelings about this are not

gonna be as clear-cut as mine.

>> Wyatt: They're clear.

I-I value trust, and I value

honesty, and Flo knew that.

All right? I --

I loved her, you know?

And a part of me always will.

There's no room in my life

for that now.

Not after what she's done.

>> Flo: Do you want to do it

again?

>> Hope: No.

>> Flo: I won't stop you.

>> Hope: I don't need to hurt

you.

You've already hurt yourself.

But I do want you to leave.

>> Flo: Okay.

I can give you more time.

>> Hope: No.

Not as in now.

I want you to leave my life

forever.

>> Flo: [ Sighs ]

I wish I could go back to that

day I met you, Hope.

I would have told you everything

right then and there.

>> Hope: Yeah, well, you know

what moment I would love to go

back to?

The moment where your good

friend handed me a dead baby.

Yeah, I would love nothing more

than to tell him to go to hell,

to spit in his face,

to kick and scream.

I would have done anything to

have my daughter from day one.

To raise her with my husband.

Do you understand

what you took from us?

Do you?!

>> Flo: Yes.

>> Hope: Every lullaby.

Every cry.

Her first smile.

Her first laugh.

You took her, and you gave her

to another woman to raise.

Steffy got all those firsts

that should have been mine,

and I can never get them back!

So, yes, as much as I would love

to go back and to make it so

that I always had my baby, and

I never, ever had to meet you,

I can't.

I have to go the rest of my life

knowing what you did.

My uncle's bastard.

Not a cousin.

Not family.

>> Brooke: Honey?

Shauna said that Flo was

down here with you.

What did she say?

>> Hope: What you'd expect.

Regrets. Tears.

Not like it matters.

>> Brooke: To think that we

would be happy to find out that

you were a part of our family,

that you were our brother's

daughter.

That maybe, somehow, Stormie

could live on through you.

But you have proven us wrong.

Stormie was such a good man.

He sacrificed his life

for his family.

But you are nothing like that.

You are cruel, and you are mean.

And he is selfless.

How could you possibly have come

from him?

I look into your eyes, and I

thought that I saw Storm.

But now all I see is his shame.

>> Bill: All right.

As soon as we find out what

judge is assigned to the case,

I want to know every detail --

>> Justin: Wait a minute.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

Haven't we learned our lesson

about that?

Ridge, Judge McMullen,

that whole ordeal?

>> Bill: That was Ridge.

>> Liam: Dad, how exactly are

you planning on getting

involved?

>> Bill: I just want to help,

Liam.

Nothing illegal.

I just think we should do

everything we can to make sure

that those two are put away

for as long as possible.

>> Liam: They do need to pay for

what they did to all of us.

>> Bill: So what are we waiting

for, right?

Let's make sure we do what we

can to get Flo arrested.

>> Liam: Well, Ridge is on it.

I've been talking to him, and it

does not seem like Flo's gonna

be walking free for long.

>> Flo: You probably won't

believe this, but no one feels

more shame than I do.

>> Brooke: Now that you

got caught.

>> Katie: Where was your shame

when you were signing documents

giving Hope's baby to Steffy?

>> Shauna: Flo feels horrible

for what she did.

>> Flo: I tried to tell her

so many times.

>> Donna: How hard is it to say,

"Your -- your baby's alive"?

>> Flo: [ Tearfully ] Because

every single time I had the

courage to do it, someone would

come in and stop me, and --

>> Donna: [ Disgustedly ] Oh!

>> Flo: And I let them.

I knew that Beth was safe,

but I --

I know that's not enough.

She should have been here

with Hope and Liam, with her --

>> Katie: So, when Hope and Liam

were breaking up, did you think

then, maybe, then -- that might

be the time to say something so

you could fix it?

>> Flo: I should have. Yeah.

But I can't go back.

I am so sorry, Hope.

I failed you.

I-I failed all of you.

And I --

I am so sorry.

[ Knock on door ]

>> Ridge: Detective Sanchez.

Welcome.

>> Det. Sanchez: I was

surprised to get your call.

>> Ridge: [ Clears throat ]

>> Det. Sanchez: Quite the

story.

>> Shauna: What's going on?

>> Ridge: Well, there's a

criminal on the property,

so safety first.

I called the police.

>> Shauna: Oh, my God.

>> Flo: Mom, it's fine.

>> Shauna: No.

Flo, you need to not say

another word until we get you

an attorney.

Do you understand?

>> Det. Sanchez: You're welcome

to call one from the station.

>> Shauna: The station?!

The station?

What are you talking about?

>> Det. Sanchez: Flo Fulton,

you're under arrest.

>> Shauna: You're arresting

her?!

For what?

What are you charging her with?

>> Det. Sanchez: Kidnapping,

for one.

>> Shauna: But she's innocent!

>> Det. Sanchez: Ms. Fulton

actively participated in the

falsifying of government

documents.

She also represented herself

as the birth mother

of a child she knew was stolen,

which means we'll be charging

her with fraud.

>> Shauna: This is your niece!

She made a mistake,

trusting the wrong man!

>> Ridge: She made a mistake,

and now she's gonna pay for it.

>> Det. Sanchez: Let's go.

You have the right to an

attorney.

>> Shauna: How could you

let this happen?

>> Det. Sanchez: If you cannot

afford an attorney...

>> Shauna: Honestly,

she had no idea!

It's my fault!

I'm the one that told her

to be quiet.

Please, don't arrest my

daughter!

That's my daughter!

Please! You have to believe me.

She really didn't mean anything.

Please.

You have to believe me.

She got caught up in it. Please!
