00:00:07,607 --> 00:00:10,076
>> Liam: I get that you meant to
lay down the law with Finn,

2
00:00:10,143 --> 00:00:12,912
but we're still talking about
his birth mother.

3
00:00:12,979 --> 00:00:15,615
You know, he does want to know
her better.

4
00:00:15,682 --> 00:00:19,586
He does feel like he has this,
whatever, connection with her.

5
00:00:19,652 --> 00:00:22,088
I just-- I'm not-- I don't
understand why you're convinced

6
00:00:22,155 --> 00:00:26,092
that he can just ignore
all those feelings.

7
00:00:26,159 --> 00:00:28,695
>> Steffy: He'll have to.
>> Liam: Because you gave him

8
00:00:28,762 --> 00:00:30,797
an ultimatum.
>> Steffy: Finn knows exactly

9
00:00:30,864 --> 00:00:33,833
where I stand.
There's only room for one of us

10
00:00:33,900 --> 00:00:37,871
in his life.
One.

11
00:00:37,937 --> 00:00:41,141
It's either Sheila, or me.

12
00:00:42,542 --> 00:00:43,710
>> Finn: Your dad and my mom,

13
00:00:43,777 --> 00:00:47,947
like, this is really happening?
>> Hope: Apparently, wedding

14
00:00:48,014 --> 00:00:50,850
bells are imminent.
>> Finn: And Deacon,

15
00:00:50,917 --> 00:00:52,552
he seriously, he wants us
to be there.

16
00:00:52,619 --> 00:00:55,021
And, like,
standing up for them.

17
00:00:55,088 --> 00:00:58,258
>> Hope: Yeah, it's a lot
to ask, I know,

18
00:00:58,324 --> 00:01:03,363
but, I mean, is it something
you would consider?

19
00:01:03,430 --> 00:01:06,766
Being my dad's best man?
I mean, especially given

20
00:01:06,833 --> 00:01:11,070
Steffy's feelings about Sheila.
[ Finn scoffs ]

21
00:01:12,338 --> 00:01:17,110
>> Deacon: Thanks, man.
>> Sheila: You didn't, I mean,

22
00:01:17,177 --> 00:01:18,778
you didn't really ask her.
>> Deacon: I want you to picture

23
00:01:18,845 --> 00:01:20,747
this, all right?
It's our special day, it's our

24
00:01:20,814 --> 00:01:23,683
wedding, my daughter by your
side, your son by mine.

25
00:01:23,750 --> 00:01:27,787
>> Sheila: Oh, I am picturing
it, it's such a beautiful image,

26
00:01:27,854 --> 00:01:31,991
but, you know, the reality is,
is the chances of Hope ever

27
00:01:32,058 --> 00:01:35,161
being my maid of honor,
and Finn being your best man.

28
00:01:35,228 --> 00:01:38,465
Ooh, careful, pigs are flying.
>> Deacon: Hey, I've seen them

29
00:01:38,531 --> 00:01:39,833
fly, right?
It could happen.

30
00:01:39,899 --> 00:01:43,536
You don't ask, you don't get.
Let's see what happens.

31
00:01:43,603 --> 00:01:45,271
>> Sheila: I love you.
>> Deacon: I love you too.

32
00:01:45,338 --> 00:01:46,973
>> Sheila: People say I'm crazy.
>> Deacon: I know they do.

33
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,075
>> Sheila: It's you.
>> Deacon: Is it really?

34
00:01:49,142 --> 00:01:53,513
Come here, okay.
Crazy broad.

35
00:01:53,580 --> 00:01:54,380
>> Sheila: Did you call me
a broad?

36
00:01:54,447 --> 00:01:55,048
>> Deacon: I did.

37
00:01:55,849 --> 00:02:02,589
♪♪♪

38
00:02:06,559 --> 00:02:10,864
>> Deacon: I haven't actually
spoken to Finn yet.

39
00:02:10,930 --> 00:02:13,766
>> Sheila: But Hope is-- is
willing to talk to him?

40
00:02:13,833 --> 00:02:15,969
>> Deacon: Look, I know how much
it would mean to you to have him

41
00:02:16,035 --> 00:02:18,371
at our wedding, all right?
Especially if he was

42
00:02:18,438 --> 00:02:21,508
my best man.
>> Sheila: That would be like

43
00:02:21,574 --> 00:02:27,447
a dream come true, really.
But I-- I can't get excited.

44
00:02:27,514 --> 00:02:33,686
>> Deacon: Because of Steffy.
Yeah.

45
00:02:33,753 --> 00:02:36,256
>> Steffy: Liam,
it won't be a problem.

46
00:02:36,322 --> 00:02:39,392
Finn understands my feelings.
He knows how destructive

47
00:02:39,459 --> 00:02:41,394
Sheila is.
All the horrible things she's

48
00:02:41,461 --> 00:02:44,163
done to us over the years.
>> Liam: Nobody, but he's saying

49
00:02:44,230 --> 00:02:46,466
she's reformed now.
That's the problem, right?

50
00:02:46,533 --> 00:02:48,635
Like that her whole history
of violence should just be

51
00:02:48,701 --> 00:02:52,238
forgotten because
now Sheila's good.

52
00:02:52,305 --> 00:02:53,940
>> Steffy: It's never gonna
be forgotten.

53
00:02:54,007 --> 00:02:56,309
Or forgiven.
>> Liam: By you.

54
00:02:56,376 --> 00:02:59,612
Yeah, but with Finn.
Okay, can I just put this

55
00:02:59,679 --> 00:03:01,347
in perspective?
The woman shot him.

56
00:03:01,414 --> 00:03:03,283
Not too long ago.
But Finn is still gullible

57
00:03:03,349 --> 00:03:06,986
enough to think that she's
a normal, well-adjusted person

58
00:03:07,053 --> 00:03:09,989
now.
>> Steffy: Yeah, she supposedly

59
00:03:10,056 --> 00:03:13,092
risked her life to save me.
Like, give me a break.

60
00:03:13,159 --> 00:03:14,894
>> Liam: But he still
believes it.

61
00:03:14,961 --> 00:03:17,063
And it's worse than that.
'Cause now he believes he has

62
00:03:17,130 --> 00:03:19,499
a second chance with his mother.
>> Steffy: No, no, no, Liam.

63
00:03:19,566 --> 00:03:23,102
There's no more chances.
Sheila's unfortunate

64
00:03:23,169 --> 00:03:25,838
resurrection, it doesn't mean
anything to me.

65
00:03:25,905 --> 00:03:29,475
Or to Finn.
Look, she is dangerous.

66
00:03:29,542 --> 00:03:33,513
And she is extremely unbalanced.
I know Finn's gonna stay away

67
00:03:33,580 --> 00:03:34,047
from her.

68
00:03:35,882 --> 00:03:38,284
>> Finn: So, what about you?

69
00:03:38,351 --> 00:03:40,954
You're gonna be able to do it?
You're stand up there and

70
00:03:41,020 --> 00:03:45,992
be Sheila's maid of honor?
>> Hope: I don't-- I don't know.

71
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:51,631
Hey, I-- I mean,
I know I'm in an easier spot.

72
00:03:51,698 --> 00:03:54,667
Given that, you know, I don't
have a spouse forbidding me

73
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:59,906
from being around her.
But, I-- I guess we'll see.

74
00:03:59,973 --> 00:04:02,976
Look, I just--
I wanted you to know.

75
00:04:03,042 --> 00:04:05,979
It's on the table.
And I am here for you if you

76
00:04:06,045 --> 00:04:08,314
need to talk about it.
And weigh the pros and cons.

77
00:04:08,381 --> 00:04:11,918
Weigh your options.
I am a safe place.

78
00:04:11,985 --> 00:04:15,855
>> Finn: Thanks.
Well, yeah, I mean,

79
00:04:15,922 --> 00:04:18,358
yeah, I'm-- I'm torn.
I mean, part of me wants

80
00:04:18,424 --> 00:04:20,760
to be there.
I know it would mean the world

81
00:04:20,827 --> 00:04:24,597
to Sheila if I supported her.
>> Hope: You think you can

82
00:04:24,664 --> 00:04:27,734
convince Steffy that it's
a good idea?

83
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:32,238
>> Finn: Not likely.
I believe Sheila has changed

84
00:04:32,305 --> 00:04:34,774
and Steffy doesn't.
And I'm afraid she never will.

85
00:04:34,841 --> 00:04:36,709
>> Hope: That puts you
in a tough spot.

86
00:04:36,776 --> 00:04:42,448
>> Finn: Yeah.
Look, as much as I might wanna

87
00:04:42,515 --> 00:04:48,087
say yes to this, I need to
consider Steffy's feelings.

88
00:04:48,154 --> 00:04:50,790
She's my wife.
And my commitment is to her,

89
00:04:50,857 --> 00:04:52,091
first and foremost.

90
00:05:02,235 --> 00:05:05,438
>> Sheila: You know, the thought
of Finn coming to our wedding,

91
00:05:05,505 --> 00:05:11,244
my son that never gave up on me.
To watch us exchange vows, start

92
00:05:11,310 --> 00:05:16,683
our life together, that just...
I would want that so much.

93
00:05:16,749 --> 00:05:17,917
>> Deacon: All right, then,
you know what you gotta do?

94
00:05:17,984 --> 00:05:19,585
You gotta start thinking
positively.

95
00:05:19,652 --> 00:05:22,555
You know, you just have to put
that out in the universe.

96
00:05:22,622 --> 00:05:24,290
Just will it to happen.
>> Sheila: Yeah.

97
00:05:24,357 --> 00:05:26,459
Well, about that,
positive thinking

98
00:05:26,526 --> 00:05:28,061
only gets you so far.
>> Deacon: Mm-hmm.

99
00:05:28,127 --> 00:05:30,530
>> Sheila: You gotta be
realistic.

100
00:05:30,596 --> 00:05:35,435
And after the last visit I had
from my son's lovely wife,

101
00:05:35,501 --> 00:05:41,641
I'm not sure
that Finn is gonna make it

102
00:05:41,708 --> 00:05:45,511
to our wedding, let alone
as your best man.

103
00:05:50,183 --> 00:05:52,885
>> Steffy: It's ridiculous that
Sheila even thinks she can get

104
00:05:52,952 --> 00:05:58,458
away with manipulating Finn with
this whole, I'm good, charade.

105
00:05:58,524 --> 00:06:01,127
>> Liam: Ridiculous that she
thinks she can or ridiculous

106
00:06:01,194 --> 00:06:06,432
that she can, 'cause even if
Finn decides to do right by you

107
00:06:06,499 --> 00:06:09,168
and has nothing to do with
Sheila ever again,

108
00:06:09,235 --> 00:06:13,172
he still fell for the con.
>> Steffy: Oh my gosh, this

109
00:06:13,239 --> 00:06:16,809
whole I'm back from the dead
thing, it's like, it's really

110
00:06:16,876 --> 00:06:20,146
affecting him, unfortunately.
>> Liam: Yeah, well, even more

111
00:06:20,213 --> 00:06:24,350
unfortunately, he's not
the only one.

112
00:06:24,417 --> 00:06:25,952
>> Steffy: Well, Deacon is
a lost cause.

113
00:06:26,018 --> 00:06:28,121
He's always been.
He's never gonna see Sheila

114
00:06:28,187 --> 00:06:30,556
for who she truly is.
>> Liam: Oh God, I wish I was

115
00:06:30,623 --> 00:06:35,595
talking about Deacon.
No, sadly, uh, kinda seems like

116
00:06:35,661 --> 00:06:38,397
Hope is falling for it too.
>> Steffy: What?

117
00:06:38,464 --> 00:06:41,601
>> Liam: Yeah, Hope.
As in, Hope.

118
00:06:41,667 --> 00:06:47,974
Um, at least she seems to be
considering it, this absurd

119
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:53,412
idea that Sheila is somehow
changed.

120
00:06:53,479 --> 00:06:56,048
>> Hope: I think it's pretty
wonderful the way you're always

121
00:06:56,115 --> 00:06:58,618
trying to put Steffy's
needs first.

122
00:06:58,684 --> 00:07:01,354
>> Finn: Well, we're married,
it's important.

123
00:07:01,420 --> 00:07:04,223
And even if I believe in Sheila,
I can understand

124
00:07:04,290 --> 00:07:06,993
why she would be hesitant.
And I have to respect that

125
00:07:07,059 --> 00:07:10,429
and hope that eventually
she'll see what I do.

126
00:07:10,496 --> 00:07:13,366
Right, maybe they'll have a long
engagement and it'll give me

127
00:07:13,432 --> 00:07:15,701
some time to change
Steffy's mind.

128
00:07:15,768 --> 00:07:18,604
>> Hope: I don't know, they seem
pretty eager to get this next

129
00:07:18,671 --> 00:07:21,440
chapter started.
>> Finn: Hmm.

130
00:07:21,507 --> 00:07:24,477
And when do you think you'll
decide whether or not you're

131
00:07:24,544 --> 00:07:27,346
gonna go?
>> Hope: I don't know.

132
00:07:27,413 --> 00:07:30,516
I know I want to discuss it
with my mother first, get her

133
00:07:30,583 --> 00:07:37,156
opinion, but honestly,
believe it or not, I think I am

134
00:07:37,223 --> 00:07:40,493
leaning towards going.
>> Finn: Really?

135
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,397
>> Hope: Yeah.
[ Hope laughs ]

136
00:07:44,463 --> 00:07:47,700
>> Hope: You seem surprised.
>> Finn: No, I mean, I'm-- I'm

137
00:07:47,767 --> 00:07:49,468
not surprised that you wanna be
there for your dad.

138
00:07:49,535 --> 00:07:52,338
I know how much you care about
him and how much you value

139
00:07:52,405 --> 00:07:54,607
the relationship that you've
fostered now that you're

140
00:07:54,674 --> 00:08:00,913
an adult, but Hope, this is not
some everyday wedding.

141
00:08:00,980 --> 00:08:03,015
I mean, it's not like he's
marrying a soccer mom

142
00:08:03,082 --> 00:08:06,552
from the suburbs.
If you go, you're gonna be

143
00:08:06,619 --> 00:08:10,656
showing that you support him
marrying Sheila Cotter.

144
00:08:10,723 --> 00:08:17,864
Is that like something
you can see yourself doing?

145
00:08:17,930 --> 00:08:23,736
>> Hope: Yeah, I...
I just want my dad to be happy.

146
00:08:23,803 --> 00:08:27,673
And besides, love is love,
right?

147
00:08:27,740 --> 00:08:30,076
>> Finn: Indeed.
>> Hope: And they are

148
00:08:30,142 --> 00:08:31,644
our parents, so...

149
00:08:37,583 --> 00:08:40,453
>> Finn: You all right?
>> Hope: Yeah, it's just...

150
00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:43,990
Sorry, these headaches that
I've been getting, just...

151
00:08:44,056 --> 00:08:47,360
>> Finn: Headaches?
Okay, well...

152
00:08:47,426 --> 00:08:49,262
Hope?
>> Hope: Hmm.

153
00:08:49,328 --> 00:08:50,963
>> Finn: Do you know where
you are?

154
00:08:51,030 --> 00:08:53,933
And who you're talking to?
Why didn't you just mention that

155
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,568
earlier?
>> Hope: No!

156
00:08:55,635 --> 00:08:57,303
No, no, I don't wanna
bother you with this.

157
00:08:57,370 --> 00:08:58,905
>> Finn: Bother me?
Come on, come on, what's...

158
00:08:58,971 --> 00:09:00,673
>> Hope: No, it's-- it's
nothing, really.

159
00:09:00,740 --> 00:09:02,441
>> Finn: Really?
You wouldn't like to have

160
00:09:02,508 --> 00:09:08,814
a second opinion, maybe from,
I don't know, a doctor?

161
00:09:08,881 --> 00:09:11,984
>> Hope: All right,
if you're offering.

162
00:09:12,051 --> 00:09:13,386
>> Finn: Look, let me take
a look, I'll just...

163
00:09:13,452 --> 00:09:14,587
I can see if I can help.

164
00:09:25,064 --> 00:09:26,899
>> Deacon: All kidding aside,
I don't need to be worried here,

165
00:09:26,966 --> 00:09:29,502
do I?
>> Sheila: About?

166
00:09:29,568 --> 00:09:32,204
>> Deacon: About Steffy,
about your tone.

167
00:09:32,271 --> 00:09:37,009
Look, don't let your feelings
for her the best of you.

168
00:09:37,076 --> 00:09:40,246
>> Sheila: I have nothing but
the utmost respect for my

169
00:09:40,313 --> 00:09:42,682
beautiful daughter-in-law.
>> Deacon: Oh, yeah, no, sure,

170
00:09:42,748 --> 00:09:44,383
of course.
With maybe just a little tiny

171
00:09:44,450 --> 00:09:47,853
bit of frustration, which
I get, it's totally justified,

172
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,855
all right?
You've done everything you can

173
00:09:49,922 --> 00:09:51,958
to prove that you're not
the woman who made all those

174
00:09:52,024 --> 00:09:54,827
mistakes all those years ago,
all right?

175
00:09:54,894 --> 00:09:56,696
You practically risked
your life.

176
00:09:56,762 --> 00:09:59,398
You protected- you protected her
from Sugar, from harming her.

177
00:09:59,465 --> 00:10:00,333
I get it.
>> Sheila: Yeah, but that

178
00:10:00,399 --> 00:10:05,638
doesn't matter.
Not to her.

179
00:10:05,705 --> 00:10:08,274
Steffy doesn't care.
I mean, she still sees me as

180
00:10:08,341 --> 00:10:11,510
Finn's psycho birth mother that
kept her away from her mother

181
00:10:11,577 --> 00:10:12,945
when she was young.
>> Deacon: Oh, okay,

182
00:10:13,012 --> 00:10:17,450
but that's not true.
All right, look.

183
00:10:17,516 --> 00:10:19,318
Maybe some of it's true,
all right?

184
00:10:19,385 --> 00:10:21,487
I mean, you can't ignore
the reality that some of

185
00:10:21,554 --> 00:10:23,622
the things that you did
in the past have had a lasting

186
00:10:23,689 --> 00:10:27,727
effect on Steffy and her family.
But here's the good news,

187
00:10:27,793 --> 00:10:30,229
all right?
She cannot continue to ignore

188
00:10:30,296 --> 00:10:33,432
the fact that you're not
the same person, that you have

189
00:10:33,499 --> 00:10:36,402
changed, all right?
Don't let her stand in the way

190
00:10:36,469 --> 00:10:38,971
of all the progress
that you've made.

191
00:10:39,038 --> 00:10:41,474
>> Sheila: But don't let her,
huh?

192
00:10:41,540 --> 00:10:45,077
Even though she's the one
person standing between myself

193
00:10:45,144 --> 00:10:46,746
and a relationship with my son.

194
00:10:48,647 --> 00:10:51,050
>> Steffy: You can't be serious.

195
00:10:51,117 --> 00:10:54,320
Hope thinks Sheila's changed?
>> Liam: Well, I wouldn't go

196
00:10:54,387 --> 00:10:57,823
that far yet.
Uh, but is she considering it?

197
00:10:57,890 --> 00:10:59,392
Yeah, it kinda seems like
she's considering it.

198
00:10:59,458 --> 00:11:01,227
>> Steffy: Okay, she is spending
way too much time

199
00:11:01,293 --> 00:11:02,695
with her father.
This must be Deacon's

200
00:11:02,762 --> 00:11:05,197
influence, right?
>> Liam: Yeah, and if it is, um,

201
00:11:05,264 --> 00:11:07,333
it's disconcerting for me, too.
>> Steffy: Okay, did Hope

202
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:08,734
tell you this?
What happened?

203
00:11:08,801 --> 00:11:10,669
>> Liam: She literally
spoke to Sheila.

204
00:11:10,736 --> 00:11:13,939
Like, she talked to her.
Sheila told Hope her side of

205
00:11:14,006 --> 00:11:18,277
the whole story with the--
you know, that she tried so hard

206
00:11:18,344 --> 00:11:19,612
to stop Sugar
from attacking you.

207
00:11:19,678 --> 00:11:21,047
>> Steffy: Okay, whatever,
supposedly.

208
00:11:21,113 --> 00:11:22,581
>> Liam: Laughably.
>> Steffy: Oh, my gosh.

209
00:11:22,648 --> 00:11:25,985
Why is everyone trying to make
Sheila, like, out like some

210
00:11:26,052 --> 00:11:29,288
hero?
Sheila is the exact opposite.

211
00:11:29,355 --> 00:11:32,391
>> Liam: Yeah, no argument here.
>> Steffy: Oh, this is

212
00:11:32,458 --> 00:11:35,895
blowing my mind.
So wait, so-- so-- did Hope,

213
00:11:35,961 --> 00:11:38,597
like, feel a type of way?
Did she feel, I don't know,

214
00:11:38,664 --> 00:11:42,635
ashamed for saying that?
Maybe a little guilty?

215
00:11:42,701 --> 00:11:46,038
>> Liam: No, because she wasn't
making any firm declarations.

216
00:11:46,105 --> 00:11:49,742
It was more just like-- like,
let's put this on the table.

217
00:11:49,809 --> 00:11:51,844
Let's think out loud.
I'm just-- you know, trying

218
00:11:51,911 --> 00:11:54,780
to keep an open mind.
>> Steffy: Oh, she better not

219
00:11:54,847 --> 00:11:56,916
have an open mind around
my husband and lead him

220
00:11:56,982 --> 00:12:01,020
down a wrong path.
Okay.

221
00:12:01,087 --> 00:12:04,256
Okay, if she wants to follow in
her daddy's footsteps and be

222
00:12:04,323 --> 00:12:07,760
all Team Sheila, have at it.
But she better not speak

223
00:12:07,827 --> 00:12:10,162
to my husband.
No, the last thing my husband

224
00:12:10,229 --> 00:12:11,997
needs is Hope's bad influence.

225
00:12:12,398 --> 00:12:13,299
>> Hope: If you think you can

226
00:12:13,365 --> 00:12:16,268
fix these headaches, then please
be my guest.

227
00:12:16,335 --> 00:12:18,137
>> Finn: Well, how often are you
getting them?

228
00:12:18,204 --> 00:12:23,008
Are we, like, talking daily?
>> Hope: These days, just about.

229
00:12:23,075 --> 00:12:25,177
>> Finn: And based on the way
you reacted, I'm guessing

230
00:12:25,244 --> 00:12:28,180
it's a sharp pain?
>> Hope: Yeah, most of the time,

231
00:12:28,247 --> 00:12:30,116
but then it goes away.
>> Finn: You drinking enough

232
00:12:30,182 --> 00:12:32,151
water?
>> Hope: Oh yeah, yeah,

233
00:12:32,218 --> 00:12:34,420
I'm hydrated.
I even have an app that tracks

234
00:12:34,487 --> 00:12:36,388
that sort of stuff.
>> Finn: Are you taking anything

235
00:12:36,455 --> 00:12:38,657
for them?
>> Hope: Um, only when it's

236
00:12:38,724 --> 00:12:41,393
really bad.
>> Finn: Okay, well, good--

237
00:12:41,460 --> 00:12:43,295
good, stick with that.
I don't wanna prescribe

238
00:12:43,362 --> 00:12:46,365
something that's not absolutely
necessary.

239
00:12:46,432 --> 00:12:48,801
>> Hope: I would like to avoid
that as well.

240
00:12:48,868 --> 00:12:52,771
Um, actually, I was thinking
about starting acupuncture.

241
00:12:52,838 --> 00:12:54,340
>> Finn: Yeah, that's actually
a good idea.

242
00:12:54,406 --> 00:12:55,941
I've had some patients who've
benefited.

243
00:12:56,008 --> 00:12:59,845
I'm-- I'm a big believer in
acupuncture and massage.

244
00:12:59,912 --> 00:13:05,351
Actually, do you trust me?
>> Hope: Maybe.

245
00:13:05,417 --> 00:13:08,988
>> Finn: I've been told
these hands work wonders.

246
00:13:09,054 --> 00:13:12,291
>> Hope: Okay, I guess in that
case, I trust you.

247
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,703
>> Deacon: Let's go with
this one, okay?

248
00:13:24,770 --> 00:13:32,211
You are not doing a lot
to ensure confidence in me.

249
00:13:32,278 --> 00:13:35,714
>> Sheila: Don't worry.
No, seriously, come on, I've got

250
00:13:35,781 --> 00:13:38,951
too much good in my life
right now.

251
00:13:39,018 --> 00:13:42,321
Got too many blessings to let
someone like Steffy throw me

252
00:13:42,388 --> 00:13:44,323
off track.
>> Deacon: Even though she's

253
00:13:44,390 --> 00:13:47,126
the one person who's standing
in between you and the thing

254
00:13:47,193 --> 00:13:48,494
that you want most
in this world?

255
00:13:48,561 --> 00:13:52,064
>> Sheila: No, what I want most
in my world is right here,

256
00:13:52,131 --> 00:13:56,202
standing in front of me.
My soon-to-be husband, who is

257
00:13:56,268 --> 00:13:58,971
loving and devoted,
and regardless of what Steffy

258
00:13:59,038 --> 00:14:04,476
thinks or wants, Finn is too.
I mean, she may be successful

259
00:14:04,543 --> 00:14:10,282
in, you know, not allowing
him to come to our wedding,

260
00:14:10,349 --> 00:14:13,619
but she's never gonna be able
to-- to come between us.

261
00:14:13,686 --> 00:14:17,156
He's not gonna stop caring
about me and believing in me.

262
00:14:17,223 --> 00:14:19,858
Do I wish Steffy felt
differently?

263
00:14:19,925 --> 00:14:23,295
Absolutely, I do.
But I am not going to allow

264
00:14:23,362 --> 00:14:30,069
anyone or anything to destroy
this incredibly happy little

265
00:14:30,135 --> 00:14:36,075
life I've got going.
>> Deacon: That's my girl.

266
00:14:36,141 --> 00:14:39,011
>> Sheila: Especially someone
like Steffy Forrester.

267
00:14:40,346 --> 00:14:43,249
>> Steffy: Ooh, I should've
seen this coming.

268
00:14:43,315 --> 00:14:45,351
>> Liam: Seen what coming?
Her thinking maybe Sheila's

269
00:14:45,417 --> 00:14:46,485
changed?
Why would you?

270
00:14:46,552 --> 00:14:48,487
It's not a sane idea.
>> Steffy: No, no, no, it's just

271
00:14:48,554 --> 00:14:52,358
the-- just the things-- just
the things Hope has been

272
00:14:52,424 --> 00:14:55,494
saying lately.
Lecturing me, warning me not to

273
00:14:55,561 --> 00:14:58,364
discard Finn's complicated
feelings towards

274
00:14:58,430 --> 00:15:00,633
his birth mother.
>> Liam: No.

275
00:15:00,699 --> 00:15:04,837
>> Steffy: Gosh, now, this is--
this really pisses me off.

276
00:15:04,903 --> 00:15:07,239
>> Liam: Well, okay,
it's Hope, right?

277
00:15:07,306 --> 00:15:10,809
I mean, you know, it could be
she just-- she has your

278
00:15:10,876 --> 00:15:12,811
and Finn's best interests,
like your marriage.

279
00:15:12,878 --> 00:15:14,747
>> Steffy: She doesn't have our
best interests.

280
00:15:14,813 --> 00:15:17,816
Liam, come on.
God, this makes me--

281
00:15:17,883 --> 00:15:20,586
this makes me so angry.
And that she's buying into

282
00:15:20,653 --> 00:15:24,189
what, all this Sheila nonsense?
Are you kidding me?

283
00:15:24,256 --> 00:15:27,860
If she tries to get into Finn's
head, if she tries to say one

284
00:15:27,926 --> 00:15:30,729
thing about Sheila being new
and improved, you know what?

285
00:15:30,796 --> 00:15:33,132
She better not say anything
at all.

286
00:15:33,198 --> 00:15:35,567
Nothing.
No, she needs to stay away from

287
00:15:35,634 --> 00:15:40,539
him, 'cause this-- this could
be really dangerous.

288
00:15:40,606 --> 00:15:43,175
No, she needs to stay away
from Finn altogether.

289
00:15:43,242 --> 00:15:47,513
>> Finn: Um, most headaches
originate in the pain-sensing

290
00:15:47,579 --> 00:15:53,719
nerves of the muscles and the
blood vessels surrounding

291
00:15:53,786 --> 00:15:59,291
the head, neck, and face.
Like, they're often triggered

292
00:15:59,358 --> 00:16:07,132
by stress and muscle tension,
but allergies can be a factor,

293
00:16:07,199 --> 00:16:09,535
sleep deprivation.
>> Hope: Well, I'm not sure

294
00:16:09,601 --> 00:16:13,605
about allergies, but stress
could definitely be the cause.

295
00:16:13,672 --> 00:16:15,507
>> Finn: Yeah, you've had a lot
of that lately.

296
00:16:15,574 --> 00:16:21,480
>> Hope: Yeah, I mean, obviously
the whole situation with Thomas.

297
00:16:21,547 --> 00:16:24,850
Not to mention Douglas being
halfway across the world,

298
00:16:24,917 --> 00:16:29,755
me worrying about him daily.
Not to mention work, and all my

299
00:16:29,822 --> 00:16:32,391
concerns about Hope
for the Future.

300
00:16:32,458 --> 00:16:35,928
>> Finn: Wow, sounds like you've
got a lot on your plate.

301
00:16:35,994 --> 00:16:42,634
Look, don't overdo it, okay?
Seriously, you gotta-- you gotta

302
00:16:42,701 --> 00:16:46,405
cut some time out for yourself.
>> Hope: Oh, you mean coming

303
00:16:46,472 --> 00:16:49,775
in here for some head massage?
>> Finn: Well, yeah, does it

304
00:16:49,842 --> 00:16:53,479
feel better?
>> Hope: Actually, yeah.

305
00:16:53,545 --> 00:16:55,814
>> Finn: Yeah, good.
I mean it, though.

306
00:16:55,881 --> 00:16:58,217
You can't forget to prioritize
yourself from time to time,

307
00:16:58,283 --> 00:17:01,887
okay?
And look, just try not

308
00:17:01,954 --> 00:17:06,058
to stress out about things
you can't control.

309
00:17:06,125 --> 00:17:09,528
Like Thomas, for example.
Look, you know where I stand on

310
00:17:09,595 --> 00:17:14,633
him, and I realize I'm talking
about my wife's brother,

311
00:17:14,700 --> 00:17:18,437
and it's hypocritical of me
considering I believe that

312
00:17:18,504 --> 00:17:21,740
my birth mother has changed.
But look, if Thomas is causing

313
00:17:21,807 --> 00:17:27,479
you this much stress,
you need to let it go.

314
00:17:27,546 --> 00:17:32,151
Let him go.
Hope, you are so beautiful,

315
00:17:32,217 --> 00:17:36,388
and kind, and passionate,
and committed to what you do.

316
00:17:36,455 --> 00:17:39,391
And you fight hard to make
a difference in people's lives

317
00:17:39,458 --> 00:17:42,494
every day.
All the while, you have a smile

318
00:17:42,561 --> 00:17:46,365
that lights up the world.
No, you deserve the best,

319
00:17:46,432 --> 00:17:49,334
Hope, the absolute best.
And I just-- I still don't think

320
00:17:49,401 --> 00:17:53,205
it's Thomas.
Look, someone special is gonna

321
00:17:53,272 --> 00:17:55,941
come along right when you least
expect it, you'll see.

322
00:17:56,008 --> 00:17:59,778
I'm certain of it.
And whoever he is,

323
00:17:59,845 --> 00:18:03,215
he'll be thankful.
And because he will know how

324
00:18:03,282 --> 00:18:08,253
fortunate he is.
Hope, any man would be lucky

325
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:09,188
to be with you.

00:18:32,444 --> 00:18:35,481
