Everything you're saying is absolutely right.

The way you love, just so passionate.
So powerful.
It belongs with somebody who deserves it.
Not with someone like Sheila, who's gonna just drag you down

You're too good for that.

to owning the joint?
Um, well, I knew the previous owner was looking to get out,
and so I put together some investors.
I scraped together the money for the down payment,
and I am gonna be working day and night to pay it off.
But Hope, I gotta tell you, I think it's gonna be worth it.
I feel like I finally found my niche after searching
for so many years.

Dad, like I said, something in Bill has changed

Billionaire problems.
That's rough.

I'm just having a tough time wrapping my head around Spencer
having any emotions other than arrogance

every bridge.
So he was alone, probably terrified.
And that made him vulnerable to Sheila.

I mean, like, what's the angle here?
I'm not getting it.
What does Bill being sad have to do with working with Sheila?

Are you really that arrogant?
And why would Bill listen to anything that you have
to say about love, Brooke?
A woman who allowed a man to bounce back and forth between
you and another for years.
A woman that had an affair and slept with

Did she pay for her crimes?
The hypocrisy is just sickening to me.

Because unlike you and Katie, I am never gonna turn my back
on him.
I am never going to leave him alone.
He finally found someone that wears her flaws proudly

It's the truth.
So you just better learn to accept it.
