[ upbeat music ] >> Liam: Working from home
today? Can't say I blame you. >> Steffy: Yeah, I thought about
going to work, but I-- I can't.
Now knowing that Sheila's out there, it's just, um...
Yeah, everyone's in shock. >> Liam: What about you?
How are you? >> Steffy: What do you think?
I'm still-- I'm freaking out. >> Liam: We all are.
>> Steffy: Knowing Sheila is alive is one thing,
but nothing prepared me to see her face-to-face.
♪♪♪ >> Sheila: You know, people say
you're crazy for being with me. >> Deacon: Nah. Let 'em
have their opinions, as long as I got you.
>> Sheila: Yeah, but loving me could make you a pariah.
>> Deacon: Pariah? Is that a fancy word for
"happiest man alive"? [ Sheila chuckles ]
>> Sheila: No. But that's a lot nicer than what
Steffy had to say to me today. >> Deacon: You saw Steffy?
>> Sheila: Uh-huh. Yeah, she paid me, uh,
a little visit. She wanted to make sure that I knew I had no
place in her life or her family. ♪♪♪
>> Brooke: What Zende did was unconscionable!
I-- I know that he didn't try to take advantage of her.
He wouldn't do that. But still, he knew that she was
your girlfriend. >> RJ: I don't think that
I'm ever going to be able to work with Zende again.
But I-- I do believe in Luna, and what we have together.
And I think that we can move past this.
I just don't need any more reminders of what happened
that night. >> Poppy: Luna, I know
you're scared-- >> Luna: Just tell me, Mom.
What does it say? Is it negative?
Is it positive? Am I pregnant?
♪♪♪
>> Brooke: I want you both to move on from this too,
sweetheart. >> RJ: I know. It's just,
it doesn't help to keep bringing it up, okay?
Listen, I-- I-- Luna made it very clear that she's not
interested in Zende and that she thought it was me,
and I believe her. Luna loves me, Mom. Only me.
[ RJ chuckles ] >> Brooke: Good!
I just hope there's not long-lasting effects for you
and Luna in this situation. >> RJ: There won't be.
>> Brooke: Okay. >> RJ: I'm gonna make sure
of that. >> Luna: Oh, it's positive,
isn't it? Just say it. I've ruined everything.
>> Poppy: You haven't. >> Luna: Well, that's easy for
you to say. I'm not like you, Mom. Like, having a baby
right now-- >> Poppy: You're not.
>> Luna: What? >> Poppy: You're not pregnant.
>> Luna: Oh, my God. Are you serious?
[ Poppy laughing ] Wait, let me see.
Oh, my God. I have never been more relieved
in my entire life. I'm not ready to have a baby
right now, let alone Zende's. >> Poppy: Well, you don't have
to worry about that, sweetheart. >> Luna: Oh, my God.
[ cell phone chimes ] >> Luna: Oh, it's RJ.
He wants me to go to his place. >> Poppy: Good.
Go. RJ's forgiven you, and he's a wonderful, caring young man,
and there's no reason to think that you can't get past this.
You just have to put that night out of your mind forever.
Bring it in. [ both laughing ]
>> Liam: So, wait, so you actually saw Sheila?
>> Steffy: I never thought I'd have to look at that
evil face again. >> Liam: You-- Okay, but I--
I don't know if confronting her is the best idea.
Like, I don't care what Deacon says, she could snap any minute.
>> Steffy: I told her to stay away from Finn, to leave us
alone, and if she ever comes near the children or Finn, she's
gonna have to answer to me. >> Deacon: You know, the last
time Steffy was here, you two went at it.
>> Sheila: Yeah, well, don't worry. I was on
my best behavior. >> Deacon: Ah.
>> Sheila: Really, I was. But so my-- my son's overbearing
wife came here and threw a tantrum.
>> Deacon: Mm-hmm. >> Sheila: Deacon, I-- you know,
I've been given another chance, and I finally have everything
I've ever wanted in life: pure, lasting,
unconditional love. >> Deacon: Well, I don't know
about pure. >> Sheila: Mmm.
I'm not gonna let you down, Daddy.
No, no more lashing out, getting angry, causing problems.
I'm a changed woman. [ knocking on door ]
Oh! Ah, that's Hope. I invited her over.
I-- I wanna tell her about the engagement.
>> Sheila: That's right. You really think so?
It's a good idea? >> Deacon: Yeah, yeah, of course
I do. Yeah, give me a few minutes with her to run it by
her, then we can tell everyone. Including Finn.
>> Sheila: Yeah. >> Deacon: Hey, kiddo.
Thanks for stopping by. >> Hope: Hey. Yeah.
>> Sheila: Hey. >> Hope: Wow, it's, uh,
still like seeing a ghost. ♪♪♪
>> Brooke: Yes. No, I agree.
That's perfect, Katie. Okay, I'll--
Oh, let me call you back. Uh, Poppy.
Poppy. Can I see you for a minute?
>> Poppy: Sure, Brooke. >> Brooke: Close the door.
>> Poppy: I'm assuming you wanna talk about our kids?
>> Brooke: I don't think our kids are the problem.
In fact, their maturity is very inspiring.
Unlike yours. >> Poppy: Mine?
>> Brooke: Our kids, Luna and RJ, deserve to be
happy and secure. And they would be if it weren't
for you and your little "mints." How can you be so reckless?
I mean, really. Your lack of judgment is
wreaking havoc in their lives. >> RJ: Thank you for coming.
>> Luna: Wow. These are beautiful.
>> RJ: Yeah, for you. I had them sent here instead of
your place because, uh, I just really wanted you to be here to
enjoy 'em. >> Luna: You want me here?
>> RJ: Yeah. All the time, as often as you want.
Like how it used to be. Listen, um...
I don't want things to be awkward or sad between us
anymore. You're blaming yourself for something terrible that
happened that wasn't your fault. This is on Zende and your mom,
not you. >> Luna: So you--
you really forgive me? >> RJ: I don't blame you.
I don't want you blaming yourself.
You know, a lot can change in one night, but it can't
change everything. We're stronger than that.
♪♪♪ >> Liam: I mean, Hope told me
all this. It's just so-- Like, really? Like, Finn is--
Thank you. He's still all about this-- the primal connection to
his birth mother thing? Like, who happens to be a psychopath?
>> Steffy: He's still trying to process all these conflicted,
confusing feelings. >>> Liam: Yeah, that's my point.
Feelings for the woman who shot you. And him.
>> Steffy: Like I said, I-- >> Liam: Okay, let me just--
All I'm saying is, Finn is your husband.
You're his wife. Clearly, your loyalty is to him.
His should be to you. >> Steffy: It is.
Make no mistake, Liam. Finn knows exactly where
I stand when it comes to Sheila. >> Deacon: You're not gonna
faint again, are you? >> Hope: Ah-ha-ha-ha.
No, it's just, uh... still a little jarring to just
see you standing here, next to my dad.
>> Sheila: Well, how are things going? How is everything?
>> Hope: Uh, it's, uh, taking a minute. But, uh,
I am starting to realize that this is all real, so.
>> Sheila: I, uh... You know, I've-- I've got
some errands to go run. I think I'll give the two of
you a-- a chance to talk. And Hope, it was lovely
seeing you again. >> Deacon: See you.
It's still a little weird, right?
>> Hope: Uh-huh. >> Deacon: Yeah.
>> Hope: Yeah, it's like, uh, nothing ever happened?
>> Deacon: Yeah, but actually, something did happen.
Something incredible. Hope, you know how much
I love you. You and the kids, you--
you mean the world to me. But so does Sheila.
Which is why I wanted you to know that...
>> Hope: Know what? >> Deacon: I asked Sheila
to marry me. We're engaged.
♪♪♪
>> Poppy: You're right, Brooke.
What happened that night was a terrible mistake.
Luna didn't know that she had my mints and what they would do.
She didn't know what was happening to her.
I'm not saying that Zende violated her in any way.
>> Brooke: No, no, Zende wouldn't do that.
But what he did do, betray my son, not asking Luna
why she was there in his bed, that is unforgivable.
He knew how in love they were. He knew that they went to
Eric's wedding together. And now your poor daughter is
walking around guilt-stricken. And it wasn't even her fault.
>> Poppy: I agree. 100%. >> Brooke: But how could you
do this? How, how could you be so careless? Everything would be
fine if it weren't for you and your damn mints.
You drugged your own daughter. ♪♪♪

man ever. I feel so lucky right now.

everything and that it'd never be like this again.
>> RJ: I just-- I just wanna forget
about that night. >> Luna: Me too. And it feels
like we finally can. Um, I know that we literally
just said that we weren't gonna talk about that night, but, um,
I have to say that I do know that you told your mom about it.
>> RJ: Oh, God. How? >> Luna: Well, she actually
came to me. And she was really concerned
and maternal, and... it was really moving.
But, um, I gotta ask, are you sure that she won't talk to
your dad and granddad about it? >> RJ: I swore her to secrecy.
I told her that I wanted to keep this quiet.
For you. >> Luna: You're so good to me.

convince you to embrace Sheila. >> Steffy: I won't. Ever.
>> Liam: No, I know that. I mean, and he's gotta know that
this is gonna cause conflict in your marriage.
>> Steffy: Sheila already caused so much pain.
I told Finn, I gave him an ultimatum.
It's either Sheila or me. >> Liam: Yeah, good.
And obviously he chose you. >> Steffy: Of course he did.

are engaged? >> Deacon: Yeah, I didn't wanna
hide it from you. I don't wanna hide it from anyone.
Honey, you've got to understand, I thought I lost her.
Now, I've got all the time in the world, and I-- I don't wanna
be apart from her ever again. Sheila and I are gonna
be married. Soon. We know that life is fleeting.
It's short. You can't wait for your happiness.

on your old man's face, right? The only thing that will make me

that's beside the point. >> Steffy: You don't have to
worry about Finn. >> Liam: Yeah, I know, I know.
Sorry you had to take a hard line. I'm sorry it came
to that. You shouldn't have to use an ultimatum to get your
husband to step up. The fact is, you and the kids
are Finn's family, not Sheila. >> Steffy: Finn knows that.
I'm confident that I got through to him.

the memorial. >> Hope: I was there for you.
>> Deacon: I need you to be there again.

>> Deacon: Damn right it's different. Come on, a wedding
is-- is the most important, greatest thing in a person's
life, and I want my daughter to be a part of it.
I mean, I don't know. Would mean a lot to Sheila, too.

that we're being completely unrealistic, that a couple days
ago, everyone thought she was dead. But today, she's very much
alive, and soon she's gonna be Mrs. Deacon Sharpe.

>> Deacon: Well, hey, you know, who's to say we can't have
a second miracle? >> Hope: How many more miracles
do you want? I mean, Dad, Sheila's alive.
You found her in a warehouse. Why can't that be enough?
>> Deacon: No, no! When you're feeling lucky, you gotta,
you know, let it ride. Go for broke, kid.
Which is why, um, I'm hoping that you and Finn
won't just attend... >> Hope: Oh, Dad...
>> Deacon: Think about it. Just think how great it would be
if you were actually in the wedding. You could be
Sheila's maid of honor. Finn could be my best man.
>> Hope: You cannot be seri-- You want me to stand up
for Sheila at the wedding? >> Deacon: I want my beautiful,
extremely persuasive daughter to talk to Finn and convince him
to stand up for me. Sheila and I would be just--
It would mean so much to us to have our kids at the altar.
>> Steffy: Finn heard me loud and clear.
Sheila will never be part of Finn's life ever again.
