>> SHEILA: Now, why would he want to do that?
>> KATIE: She's done something to you.
I can see that. You don't have to let her
hold you hostage. >> SHEILA: He's with me
of his own free will. >> KATIE: I don't know why
you're blackmailing Steffy and Finn.
I don't know why. I don't need to know why.
But they're terrified. They won't testify against her
because of your threats. And I don't understand
why you would do that, why you would use all of
your power and your influence to defend her.
To do what? To keep her out of prison
because you're in some kind of relationship.
It's just crazy. It's ludicrous.
I don't believe it. I will never accept it.
>> SHEILA: You don't have a choice.
>> KATIE: This is not the kind of man you want to be.
This is not the man I fell in love with.
This is not the father, the good father that I know.
You're letting her walk all over you. Why?
Stop it. Snap out of it, Bill.
>> FINN: Ever since Sheila has come into our lives,
it's just been one nightmare after another.
>> STEFFY: No. She's not giving up.
And now she's free. Bill's blackmailing us.
When will this ever end? >> FINN: I don't know.
But I'll tell you one thing. I will not let her
anywhere near us or the kids. Sheila is done
hurting our family. [knocking]
>> LIAM: Yo, hello? Hey.
>> STEFFY: Hey. >> Uh, can we--
> FINN: Yeah, yeah, come in. >> HOPE: We just spoke
to my mom, and apparently Sheila's been set free.

>> LIAM: Weren't you going to explain how Sheila shot you
and left you for dead? >> HOPE: So what happened?
Was there some kind of mix up? >> FINN: No.
>> STEFFY: We wish. >> LIAM: Okay, so you did
meet with the judge. >> FINN: We were right there
in his chambers. >> HOPE: And what,

But you can fix it. You can fix it.
Just pick up the phone and call the police.
You've got to get her back into custody.
>> SHEILA: Who do you think set me free?
>> KATIE: Shut up. This is between Bill and me.
I know him better than anybody, And this is not you.
You're not blind. You're not. You know,
deep down, how messed up this is.
You know about her, what she's done,
the horrible, horrific crimes that she's committed.
Come on, Bill. Think about Will, okay?
Think about-- think about your grandchild.
Think about Kelly. This woman--
this woman was gonna leave her motherless.
This woman was gonna take her mother away from her.
She was going to let Steffy bleed out in that alley.
Steffy, who I know you care about.
That's who she is. You have vowed
to protect your family. You do.
That's who you are. That's who we need you
to be right now. We need you to stand up
and to protect us. Please. Protect us from Sheila.

>> LIAM: Wait. Hold on a second. So...
my dad is siding with Sheila and blackmailing you?
>> STEFFY: My mom's freedom for Sheila's freedom.
>> LIAM: He promised he would never say a word,
that he would never go to the police.
>> STEFFY: The most shameful night of my mom's life.
You know how much she regrets that night.
Losing control and going over Bill's house.
>> LIAM: You don't have to explain to us.
We were all there. We all went through it.
It's a traumatizing experience for everyone involved.
And I know we all tried to move on from that.
>> FINN: There's only a few people who know it was Taylor
who shot Bill. >> HOPE: And so what,
now he's just trying to throw it back in your face?
>> FINN: You can see why we had to say silent about Sheila.
>> HOPE: As much as I hate Sheila and...
I want her to pay for her crimes, I just
couldn't risk my mom's freedom. >> LIAM: Hey, no,
we all get that. But, like, what about
all the other stuff Sheila did, all the other charges?
She escaped from prison, for God's sake.
>> FINN: Judge McMullen, he concocted some wild story
on how Mike Guthrie forced Sheila to escape prison
against her will. >> LIAM: What?
That's absurd. Why would he do that?
>> FINN: Your father. >> HOPE: Do you think he put
the judge up to it? >> FINN: There's no doubt
>> TEFFY: Bill has a judge in his pocket.
>> LIAM: Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
>> HOPE: Okay, well, does Taylor know about any of this?
>> STEFFY: Yes. I had to tell her.
My mom wanted to do the honorable thing
and turn herself in, but I begged her not to do it.
>> FINN: Especially since Bill will just bribe whoever
it takes to make sure Sheila stays out of prison.
>> LIAM: But why? What is the motivation for that?
My dad hates Sheila Carter. He's never said
a single nice thing about her. >> STEFFY: There's nothing
nice about her. The only thing that's good about her
is that she gave birth to Finn. >> HOPE: Well, exactly.
So then why would Bill back Sheila?
>> STEFFY: Bill and Sheila are involved.

expressed himself. He said he loves me.

No matter what, we are. This house, this house...
This was our home. That's where we raised our son.

he had his first steps right over there,
