B&B Logo

Liam and Hope recalled the tragic events surrounding Beth's abduction. Liam mentioned that he hadn't filed the divorce papers yet because of Beth, and there might be a path back for Hope, who he felt had lost herself. Hope realized that she had lost her way and had used Liam's feelings for Steffy as an excuse to hook up with Thomas. Hope broke things off with Thomas, who was willing to let her go for her own happiness. Hope asked Liam for another chance. Liam admitted that he was not a one-woman man, and he said Hope could no more deal with Steffy in their relationship than Liam could deal with Thomas. Unable to forgive Hope, Liam left. While Finn implored Steffy to return home, Sheila reaffirmed her desire to be in Finn's life. Feeling that Ridge was shuffling him to the side, Eric reclaimed his office and announced that he'd design a new collection with or without Ridge.
