Taylor blasts Eric that Brooke Logan does not do anything without a reason. It may not make sense and it might not be right, but she wants to know why Brooke would re-create her and Eric's marriage. She must be coming on to him. Eric says he can not tell her that, Brooke may not even know why she does things. There is no other woman in his life, just Taylor. History is not going to repeat itself. Brooke is not a threat to their relationship. She will always be a part of his past as they share children. He loves Taylor and is going nowhere. He's asking her to please let this go. He's not as fascinated by what is going on with Brooke as Taylor is. Brooke drops in on Bill to let him know that this party by Katie doesn't feel right. She wants to celebrate Brooke for being the great sister that she is, when Brooke knows she hasn't been. Bill recommends that perhaps she needs to tell Katie that, but whatever Brooke needs to tell him if there is any other reason that she doesn't want to be involved. He says she has to get past this and she can't let this one thing keep her from being happy. They made a mistake and it's over with. They agreed they could put this behind them, but since then she can barely look at him. Katie helps Hope and Donna and the decorators get her place ready for the party. Donna says if Taylor can be civil and attend the party then she is a big girl and can too. Katie drops in on Eric to hand him his party invitation and says he can even bring Taylor. Taylor makes a point of seeing Dr. Caspary but when she doesn't get the answers she wants about Brooke, she goes back later and snoops thru the doctor's files and find's Brooke's medical folder .very suspicious that a gynecologist would have Brooke's files with anxiety attacks. Bill suggests to Brooke that whatever is bothering her that she just needs to tell him. She's probably working herself up over nothing. She stammers that she has been keeping a secret, not just from Katie but from him too. Finally she blurts it out that she miscarried his baby. She wanted to tell him and was going to just before she was admitted to the hospital for her attack. Bill is beyond stunned. He holds her and tells her how sorry he is. Taylor takes the file and opens it. She sees where Brooke was admitted, had an ultrasound .and then no baby so she was pregnant but lost Bill's baby!
Taylor: Brooke hired somebody to re-create her honeymoon in the desert -- a honeymoon that she had with you. If she wasn't trying to win you back, then what was she after? Eric: I can't tell you that. I'm not sure Brooke could. Taylor: Brooke Logan doesn't do anything without a reason. It may not...make sense, it may not be right, but Brooke doesn't do anything unless she has a reason. And I want to know what it is. [SCENE_BREAK] [Door opens] Bill: Ready to party? Brooke: [Sighs] Are you? Bill: You're the one who's gonna be in the spotlight. You okay with that? Brooke: Not really. Bill: Not feeling up to it? Brooke: I just don't want Katie to go out of her way to thank me for being such a great sister when...I know I haven't been. [SCENE_BREAK] Katie: Brooke has done so much for me. I'm just so glad that we're able to do this one little thing for her. Hope: Mm-hmm. Yeah, mom's gonna love this. Katie: And I've been working with Spencer's art department. Look at this picture I found of Bill and Brooke. Donna: It's her birthday, Katie, not his. Katie: Yeah, but...you know, she was really there for Bill and for Will when I was having my problems, and I really want to acknowledge that. Hope: That's not a time in your life you'd maybe rather forget? Katie: Well, you know what? Bad times help us appreciate the good times. Hope: Just like when Liam finally decides that he wants to be with me 100%. Katie: [Chuckling] Yes. Just like that. Hope: Uh-huh. Katie: [Laughs] No, this party will show Brooke that nothing she does goes unnoticed. [SCENE_BREAK] Hope: Mm, I think I found my calling. [Laughter] Katie: I invited Liam. I hope you're okay with that. Hope: Yeah. I mean, we're -- we're not fighting or anything. He just...needs to decide what he wants. Donna: Well, maybe you and your mom will both have something to celebrate tomorrow. Man: Excuse me. Mrs. Spencer, they're all finished in the kitchen. Katie: Oh, great. Okay. So, I want to talk to you about the passed hors d'oeuvres. Donna: Remember, you're a Logan and you deserve to be loved and appreciated for the amazing woman that you are. Hope: Thank you, Aunt Donna. My mom gave me the exact same advice. Katie: Advice about what? Hope: Oh. Never settle for less than what you want. Katie: Huh. That sounds just like Brooke. [Giggles] [SCENE_BREAK] Taylor: Was she trying to hurt me? Eric: No. Taylor: Brooke tried to seduce you. She wanted you to spend the night. Eric: I didn't. Taylor: Then why keep it a secret? [SCENE_BREAK] Bill: Why not be honest? Tell Katie you don't want a party. Brooke: She's just so excited about it. Bill: But you're not. Brooke: [Sighs] It just doesn't feel right. Not after what we did. Bill: Brooke. If you can't get past this for some reason... you have to let me know. [SCENE_BREAK] Man: So, what do you think? Katie: I think they're beautiful. They're perfect. Man: Oh, they're gorgeous orchids. And we're gonna put them all throughout. Hope: Wow. She's really going all out. Donna: Your mom's worth it. Hope: Oh, and apparently, it's not just a party for Mom. It's to celebrate the Logan women. Donna: A celebration of our strength. Hope: Hmm. Katie: Well, our strength has served us well. Donna: I just wish we didn't need so darn much of it. Hope: Oh, that's good. Can I use that in my toast? Donna: Be my guest. Hope: Thank you. Katie: That reminds me. Um, I have invited all the usual suspects, but I didn't really ask you how you feel about Taylor being here. Donna: I'm an adult. If Taylor can act like one, then I think we'll be fine. Katie: All right. What do you think, Hope? Hope: I think it might be good for Taylor to see Mom through our eyes for a change. I mean, all Taylor sees is her mistakes. Hell, I was born into a scandal when Mom slept with Deacon, but I forgave her for that. It's -- it's really time that Taylor sees that Mom has changed. [SCENE_BREAK] Bill: Brooke, you have to get past this. Brooke: [Sighs] I'm trying. Bill: You can't let this one thing keep you from being happy. Brooke: It wasn't just one thing. Bill: But it was a misunderstanding. Katie took off her wedding ring. She told us it was over. (Flashback) Katie: The only thing I want right now...is a divorce. (Present time) Bill: And we believed her. Brooke: But she changed her mind. (Flashback) Katie: [Smooches] (Present time) Bill: Have you changed yours? Brooke: No. Bill: Brooke, I don't see what the problem is. I mean, what -- why can't you go to the party? Unless there's more to it -- something you haven't shared with me. [SCENE_BREAK] Taylor: How could you not tell me?! If Brooke is coming on to you, I have a right to know. Bill: Well, she isn't. Whatever Brooke was after, she's not gonna get, because I turned her down. [Sighs] Taylor, I'm faithful to you without reservation, absolutely. There's no other woman in my life. None at all. And no walk down memory lane with Brooke or anybody else is gonna change that. History is not repeating itself. No one's going to lure me away from you. I'm yours unequivocally. You understand that? Brooke is not a threat to our relationship. I love you. She'll always be Brooke. We share children. But you are my future. Taylor: Did she ask you to leave me? Eric: I'm not going anywhere. Taylor: [Chuckles] She must have been... [Chuckles] ...devastated. She always gets her man. [Chuckles] Eric: Brooke doesn't exercise very good judgment when she's stressed-out, you know? Taylor: Do you think that maybe...this whole thing was something like she was distracting herself because she's trying to find a way to get over Bill? Eric: Oh, my God, Taylor. Let's let this go, all right? It's all over with. It's all finished. [Cell phone beeps] Eric: Oh. Taylor: No. I'm trying to figure this out because she has been acting very strangely. Eric: No, look. I have a meeting. I have a meeting. Taylor: Listen to me, Eric. Listen to me. She -- she is showing a lot of mourning signs, and I'm worried about her, because...she's had a lot of anxiety, she's been tired, and she's very stressed-out. Whatever is going on, it put her in the hospital. Eric: Look, I'm asking you to leave this alone. Will you? Taylor: Why? Eric: Because I'm not as fascinated or intrigued with what's going on with Brooke as you are. [Door opens, closes] [SCENE_BREAK] Donna: Come on. You really think Taylor can see Brooke the way we do? Hope: Oh, who knows? Life is full of surprises. Donna: Well, you know, with all the good vibes in this room and everyone celebrating, you and Liam might actually have a breakthrough. Hope: Mm-hmm. Yeah, but this party -- you know, this is about Mom and her family, not the men in our lives. Or...God, lack thereof. [Chuckles] You know, for a long time, I feel like that's how Mom defined herself. It's like she needed a man in her life to be happy. But look at her now. She's fine on her own. Donna: So, you think your mom's doing okay? Hope: Yeah. I-I-I was worried when she had the anxiety attack, you know? But then I started thinking about everything that she's going through. You know, she's doing the Bedroom line, she's dealing with all that press, and that's stressful. That's a lot of stress. It's -- [Chuckles] I remember what that felt like, and I wasn't doing it in my underwear. Donna: Oh, Taylor would say that's where your mom does her best work. Hope: Hmm. Well, Taylor better not say anything like that at the party. [SCENE_BREAK] Taylor: Ah! There she is. Just the person I wanted to see. Dr. Caspary: Something I can do for you, Dr. Hayes? Steffy's all right, I hope. Taylor: Oh, she's overseas working with her father. Dr. Caspary: Back in the swing of things. Taylor: Yeah. Uh, I thought you might like to know that -- that Brooke is doing the same thing -- trying, anyway... since her anxiety attack and everything. Dr. Caspary: Oh, you know about that. Taylor: Well, I don't know all the details, but I thought I would stop by and give you a list of some colleagues -- some names that I have that also specialize in anxiety disorder, and maybe you could pass that along. You did see her when she came in, right? Dr. Caspary: I heard she had been admitted. I wanted to check on her. Taylor: Well, that was very nice of you. Dr. Caspary: Well, I'm sure you'd do the same for one of your patients. Taylor: Oh, I'm sorry. I don't want to keep you. I just wanted to find out if -- if you do want me to get you a list of those names. Dr. Caspary: I would. I'm gonna go grab some food. Would you like to join me? Taylor: Oh, I'm -- well, uh, no. I-I can't. But thank you. I'll, uh, e-mail you that list of names. Dr. Caspary: Okay. That will be great. Taylor: Okay. [SCENE_BREAK] Bill: Something's going on with you. Tell me what it is. Brooke: I was talking to Liam today, and...he said something about not being a part of the decisions that affect his life. Bill: And yet, when he has a chance to do something, he doesn't. Brooke: Sometimes there's nothing that you can do. Bill: You can get answers so that you can make an informed decision for yourself. Brooke: And what if the truth doesn't help? What if it just complicates the situation? Bill: Brooke, everything was fine. We agreed to put this whole thing behind us. Then you came to the house, you were obviously very upset, you collapsed... and ever since then, it's like you can barely look at me. What is it? When you were in the hospital, you said that you would keep our secret safe. Are you having second thoughts? Do you want to tell Katie? Brooke: [Sighs] No. No. [Sighs] I want to tell you. Bill: Tell me what? [SCENE_BREAK] [Door opens] Eric: Uh, you're too late. Katie: I am? Eric: Yeah. Your sisters both left for the day already. Katie: Well, then it's a good thing I'm not here to see them. I'm here to see you. Eric: You looking for somebody to take care of Will? 'Cause I can do that. I have lots of, uh, references. I'm grandpa to a whole bunch of people around here. Katie: I'm not sure I could afford you, but no. No, I'm actually here to invite you to a party. It's Brooke's birthday. Eric: Is she up for that? Katie: Yeah, I think so. Eric: Well, I'm not certain that being the center of attention so soon after an anxiety attack's such a good idea. Katie: Well, she'll be surrounded by family and friends, people who love her. What would be stressful about that? Eric: I'm sure it will be lovely. Katie: Well, then, you'll come. You can even bring Taylor. [SCENE_BREAK] Taylor: [Sighs] (Flashback) Dr. Caspary: I heard Brooke had been admitted. I wanted to check on her. (Present time) Taylor: Why would a gynecologist go and check on a patient that had been admitted for an anxiety disorder? [Sighs] [Sighs] [SCENE_BREAK] Bill: Whatever you have to say, you can say it. Brooke: [Sighs] Bill: Come on. It can't be that bad. You're probably getting yourself all worked up over nothing. Brooke: [Voice breaking] It wasn't nothing. Bill: No. No, it wasn't. Is that what you want to tell me? You still have feelings? Brooke: You're my sister's husband. She loves you very much. Bill: And I love Katie. And I don't want to hurt her. But I don't want you hurt by this, either. I meant what I said in the hospital. I'm here for you. And if you're having trouble with this, I need to know it. We need to be honest with each other. Brooke: I-I haven't been. [Sniffles] Bill: I knew it. I knew it. Keeping this secret from Katie is just too much of a burden for you. Brooke: I've been keeping a secret from you, too. Bill: Well, what is it? Are you feeling guilty? Brooke: I'm...grieving -- grieving the loss of our baby. Bill: Our baby? Brooke: I was gonna tell you, Bill. That's why I was at your house, and I collapsed. I was gonna tell you that I was pregnant. Bill: Pregnant? Brooke: Yes. Bill: Y-you -- you were. Brooke: I had -- Bill: You're not anymore? Brooke: Mnh-mnh. [Sniffles] I miscarried. I-I-I found -- I found that out at the hospital. Bill: Brooke, I'm sorry. I am so sorry. Brooke: I'm sorry, too. I am. I wanted to tell you. I did. I just... [Crying] I was so worried about Katie and how she would -- would react if she found out. [Sobbing] Bill: I'm sorry, Brooke. Brooke: [Sniffles] [Crying] [SCENE_BREAK] (Flashback) Bill: I don't want you feeling guilty. We were both going through a very rough time. Brooke: I don't know what I would have done without your support. Bill: We could be the reason that Katie's in there fighting for her life. Brooke: But you heard what the doctor said. Bill: He doesn't know what we know. Taylor: What would that be? Bill: Do I look like a guy who's gonna mess with a winning combination? Brooke: [Chuckles] Bill: I'm there for you, Brooke...all the way. (Present time) Taylor: If Brooke hasn't done anything wrong, then she doesn't have anything to hide. "Elevated HCG level indicates..." [Gasps] Oh, my God. "Patient admitted to ER after temporary loss of consciousness." "Ultrasound administered." She miscarried Bill's baby. (Flashback) Guilt is written all over your face. Tell me the truth. Did you sleep with your sister's husband? (Present time) [Sighs] Oh, yes, you did. Oh, yes, you did.
