00:07:33,319 --> 00:07:37,790
Yeah, you're really tense.
Which makes sense,

165
00:07:37,857 --> 00:07:40,293
because the musculoskeletal
system is highly intricate.

166
00:07:40,359 --> 00:07:44,230
And all these muscles
and nerves are interconnected.

167
00:07:44,297 --> 00:07:47,800
So, a stiff neck can cause
the jaw and facial fascia

168
00:07:47,867 --> 00:07:52,772
to become tight, which...
often leads to headaches.

169
00:07:52,839 --> 00:07:55,474
Look, either way, I think
the underlining factor here,

170
00:07:55,541 --> 00:07:58,377
Hope, is stress.
And everything that you've

171
00:07:58,444 --> 00:08:05,418
got going on in your life.
How's that?

172
00:08:05,484 --> 00:08:09,355
That feeling better?
>> Hope: Yeah.

173
00:08:09,422 --> 00:08:10,423
It's definitely helping.

174
00:08:20,533 --> 00:08:23,102
>> Sheila: You know, on the day
Finn got married, it's the first
time we had seen

175
00:08:23,169 --> 00:08:25,571
each other since he was a baby.
And now, to think that he might

176
00:08:25,638 --> 00:08:28,407
be in my wedding.
>> Deacon: That would

177
00:08:28,474 --> 00:08:30,576
definitely be
a full circle moment,

178
00:08:30,643 --> 00:08:35,715
wouldn't it?
>> Sheila: Could I be so lucky?

179
00:08:35,781 --> 00:08:37,950
>> Deacon: I want you
to close your eyes.

180
00:08:38,017 --> 00:08:41,554
Come on, do it for me.
Close your eyes.

181
00:08:41,621 --> 00:08:45,391
I want you to
visualize Finn

182
00:08:45,458 --> 00:08:49,495
standing next to us
at the altar.

183
00:08:49,562 --> 00:08:54,033
>> Sheila: Damn, you know, I...
I am trying.

184
00:08:54,100 --> 00:09:00,439
But I can only see Steffy's face
with a big-ass scowl on it.

185
00:09:01,941 --> 00:09:03,776
>> Brooke: What are
you implying,

186
00:09:03,843 --> 00:09:07,413
not wanting Hope around Finn?
>> Steffy: Look, we all know

187
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,016
that Finn's been struggling.
He does have these complex

188
00:09:10,082 --> 00:09:11,884
feelings for his mother.
>> Ridge: Well, there shouldn't

189
00:09:11,951 --> 00:09:13,252
be any complex feelings
there, though.

190
00:09:13,319 --> 00:09:15,554
>> Steffy: I get that, Dad.
I get that. I hate it, too.

191
00:09:15,621 --> 00:09:17,690
But he does have them.
He has this tie to his mother.

192
00:09:17,757 --> 00:09:20,026
>> Brooke: I'm sure Finn feels
caught in the middle.

193
00:09:20,092 --> 00:09:22,094
>> Ridge: There is no gray area.
It's either your kids

194
00:09:22,161 --> 00:09:24,263
and your wife or the woman
who tried to kill her.

195
00:09:24,330 --> 00:09:26,465
>> Steffy: You know what?
If Hope wants to be

196
00:09:26,532 --> 00:09:30,069
besties with Sheila, go ahead.
Have at it.

197
00:09:30,136 --> 00:09:32,972
But do not drag my husband
into this.

198
00:09:37,443 --> 00:09:39,545
>> Finn: This might relieve
some pressure.

199
00:09:43,349 --> 00:09:47,019
You need to...
take time for yourself,

200
00:09:47,086 --> 00:09:51,223
Hope, take care of yourself.
>> Hope: Okay, Doctor.

201
00:09:51,290 --> 00:09:55,294
I will follow your orders.
>> Finn: I'm serious.

202
00:09:55,361 --> 00:09:59,598
All this talk about self-care,
it's-- it's crucial.

203
00:09:59,665 --> 00:10:04,737
Whether it's a hot bath,
meditation, a massage.

204
00:10:04,804 --> 00:10:08,674
We need to find ways to reduce
the stress in our life.

205
00:10:08,741 --> 00:10:11,477
Otherwise, it can have negative
effects on our health.

206
00:10:11,544 --> 00:10:15,481
And it can manifest into pain,
like, you know, migraines.

207
00:10:15,548 --> 00:10:19,719
>> Hope: Hmm. Well, I...
definitely think you're right

208
00:10:19,785 --> 00:10:26,325
about the stress levels.
It hasn't been easy

209
00:10:26,392 --> 00:10:28,627
since Douglas left
the country with his father.

210
00:10:28,694 --> 00:10:34,066
I mean, it...
has taken a toll on me,

211
00:10:34,133 --> 00:10:37,336
even though I'm not really
letting on to that.

212
00:10:37,403 --> 00:10:41,340
And now, with Thomas'
absence at the company,

213
00:10:41,407 --> 00:10:45,211
there's a lot of uncertainty
around Hope for the Future.

214
00:10:45,277 --> 00:10:46,812
>> Finn: Yeah, he was
your lead designer.

215
00:10:46,879 --> 00:10:50,783
I'm sure there's a big void.
>> Hope: No, huge.

216
00:10:50,850 --> 00:10:54,286
And then, sprinkle my divorce
with Liam on top of it all.

217
00:10:54,353 --> 00:10:58,024
>> Finn: Yeah, it's just...
yeah, it's too much all at once.

218
00:10:58,090 --> 00:11:04,463
>> Hope: Yeah.
Honestly, I, um...

219
00:11:04,530 --> 00:11:06,999
I've really been struggling.
I think I've just been

220
00:11:07,066 --> 00:11:10,736
hiding it really well.
>> Finn: Hm.

221
00:11:10,803 --> 00:11:13,305
Sorry to hear that.
>> Hope: Yeah.

222
00:11:13,372 --> 00:11:16,308
>> Finn: And now you have
our parents' wedding

223
00:11:16,375 --> 00:11:19,745
to worry about.
[ Hope laughing ]

224
00:11:19,812 --> 00:11:22,081
Are you thinking about going?
>> Hope: I mean,

225
00:11:22,148 --> 00:11:24,383
I want to discuss it
with my mother first

226
00:11:24,450 --> 00:11:28,721
and hear what she
has to say about it, but...

227
00:11:28,788 --> 00:11:33,426
I am considering it, just...
knowing how much it means

228
00:11:33,492 --> 00:11:35,161
to my father.
But please know,

229
00:11:35,227 --> 00:11:40,499
I haven't told anyone about it.
Not even Steffy, so...

230
00:11:40,566 --> 00:11:43,803
what are you thinking?
Which way are you leaning?

231
00:11:43,869 --> 00:11:47,940
>> Finn: What am I thinking?
Um...

232
00:11:48,007 --> 00:11:49,675
yeah, now you're gonna
give me a headache.

233
00:11:49,742 --> 00:11:52,478
Um...
as much as I'd like

234
00:11:52,545 --> 00:11:55,881
to be there
and support them

235
00:11:55,948 --> 00:11:59,718
and be Deacon's best man,
I have to put Steffy's

236
00:11:59,785 --> 00:12:03,789
feelings first.
It's too much for her.

237
00:12:03,856 --> 00:12:05,791
There's no way
she'd be cool with it.

238
00:12:05,858 --> 00:12:09,762
>> Hope: Yeah.
>> Finn: Any improvement?

239
00:12:09,829 --> 00:12:12,965
>> Hope: Much better.
Thank you.

240
00:12:15,968 --> 00:12:18,471
Why are you
looking at me like that?

241
00:12:18,537 --> 00:12:21,307
>> Finn: I was just thinking
about how perfect it is.

242
00:12:21,373 --> 00:12:23,309
>> Hope: What?
Your name.

243
00:12:23,375 --> 00:12:26,278
>> Hope: Hope?
>> Finn: Yeah, I mean, it's--

244
00:12:26,345 --> 00:12:30,316
it's everything you embody.
Hope for the future,

245
00:12:30,382 --> 00:12:33,719
hope for--
for everyone.

246
00:12:33,786 --> 00:12:36,555
Even the lost, misguided souls.
>> Hope: Well,

247
00:12:36,622 --> 00:12:40,559
you are all about hope too,
even though it's not your name.

248
00:12:40,626 --> 00:12:43,395
What with taking care
of those in need,

249
00:12:43,462 --> 00:12:46,098
being a doctor and all.
>> Finn: Yeah,

250
00:12:46,165 --> 00:12:48,467
I guess you're right.
Sounds like we got more

251
00:12:48,534 --> 00:12:54,073
in common than we thought.
I should give Deacon

252
00:12:54,140 --> 00:12:56,809
an answer, though.
I'm sure he's been waiting.

253
00:12:56,876 --> 00:12:59,145
>> Hope: Yes,
but I also get that

254
00:12:59,211 --> 00:13:02,748
you are in a tough position,
so if you can't say yes,

255
00:13:02,815 --> 00:13:05,518
I totally understand.
>> Finn: I have to put

256
00:13:05,584 --> 00:13:08,254
my wife first.
>> Hope: That's the way

257
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:13,526
it should be.
Steffy is really, really lucky

258
00:13:13,592 --> 00:13:15,828
to have such
a loving man in her life.

259
00:13:28,774 --> 00:13:30,276
>> Ridge: You can get through to
Hope. I know you can.

260
00:13:30,342 --> 00:13:33,479
>> Steffy: Yeah, you have to
talk some sense into Hope.

261
00:13:36,682 --> 00:13:40,352
>> Brooke: Sweetheart!
>> Steffy: Speak of the devil.

262
00:13:40,419 --> 00:13:44,456
>> Hope: Uh...
what did I just walk in on?

263
00:13:44,523 --> 00:13:47,393
>> Brooke: Um...
Steffy and Ridge were just

264
00:13:47,459 --> 00:13:50,262
expressing some concerns
they have.

265
00:13:50,329 --> 00:13:53,732
>> Hope: About?
>> Steffy: You.

266
00:13:53,799 --> 00:13:55,701
>> Brooke: They think maybe
you might have

267
00:13:55,768 --> 00:13:58,771
warmed up to the idea of Sheila.
[ Hope clearing throat ]

268
00:13:58,837 --> 00:14:03,409
>> Hope: Warmed up?
>> Brooke: Well, have you?

269
00:14:03,475 --> 00:14:06,078
Apparently, you came
face to face with Sheila.

270
00:14:06,145 --> 00:14:08,981
You had quite a shock.
>> Hope: Yes, so much so

271
00:14:09,048 --> 00:14:12,117
that I fainted
because I couldn't believe

272
00:14:12,184 --> 00:14:14,787
what I was seeing.
Um, but it turns out

273
00:14:14,853 --> 00:14:17,756
my dad was right.
He wasn't crazy.

274
00:14:17,823 --> 00:14:20,459
He was right about Sheila.
>> Steffy: Okay, Deacon

275
00:14:20,526 --> 00:14:22,561
was right about one thing.
Sheila's alive.

276
00:14:22,628 --> 00:14:24,763
But he's not the best
judge of character.

277
00:14:24,830 --> 00:14:26,999
And Sheila has him wrapped
around her finger.

278
00:14:27,066 --> 00:14:29,034
So of course, yeah, he's gonna
believe that she's changed,

279
00:14:29,101 --> 00:14:33,072
when she should really
be rotting in prison.

280
00:14:33,138 --> 00:14:34,773
I mean, come on,
you know that, right?

281
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,309
You know how psycho
she is, right?

282
00:14:37,376 --> 00:14:42,615
[ Hope clearing throat ]
Oh, my God.

283
00:14:42,681 --> 00:14:44,683
Oh, my God,
they've actually gotten to you.

284
00:14:44,750 --> 00:14:47,219
>> Brooke: Honey, you can't
listen to them.

285
00:14:47,286 --> 00:14:50,189
You can't let your father
influence you like that.

286
00:14:50,256 --> 00:14:52,224
>> Steffy: You can't show
that woman any mercy.

287
00:14:52,291 --> 00:14:55,461
>> Hope: Well, I've talked
to my dad and he believes

288
00:14:55,527 --> 00:14:58,998
that she truly has changed.
>> Steffy: Oh!

289
00:14:59,064 --> 00:15:00,799
>> Ridge: Ae you kidding me?
Really?

290
00:15:00,866 --> 00:15:04,870
>> Steffy: Oh, my God.
>> Hope: So much so that, um...

291
00:15:04,937 --> 00:15:07,673
he proposed to her.
>> Brooke: He what?

292
00:15:07,740 --> 00:15:09,008
>> Steffy: What?
They're engaged?

293
00:15:09,074 --> 00:15:10,976
Oh, what an idiot.
>> Ridge: What?

294
00:15:11,043 --> 00:15:13,812
How dumb is your dad? Really?
>> Steffy: Any normal person

295
00:15:13,879 --> 00:15:17,349
would realize that
Sheila hasn't changed.

296
00:15:17,416 --> 00:15:20,119
Come on, she's only doing it
because she wants to lure Finn

297
00:15:20,185 --> 00:15:25,891
back into her life.
[ Steffy scoffs ]

298
00:15:30,462 --> 00:15:32,364
>> Finn: Hey.
>> Deacon: Hey, Finn.

299
00:15:32,431 --> 00:15:33,866
>> Finn: You, uh,
have time to talk?

300
00:15:33,932 --> 00:15:37,269
>> Deacon: Yeah, of course.
>> Finn: Yeah, I, um...

301
00:15:37,336 --> 00:15:39,905
spoke with Hope.
I hear there's some

302
00:15:39,972 --> 00:15:43,008
congratulations in order.
>> Deacon: Yeah, your mom and I

303
00:15:43,075 --> 00:15:45,644
are pretty excited.
We're probably the only people

304
00:15:45,711 --> 00:15:49,748
that are excited, but, uh,
maybe you and Hope could be

305
00:15:49,815 --> 00:15:51,583
a little excited for us?
>> Finn: Oh, hey,

306
00:15:51,650 --> 00:15:54,887
I wish you guys all the best.
>> Deacon: I was kind of hoping

307
00:15:54,953 --> 00:15:57,790
you might get involved.
>> Finn: Hope said you'd like me

308
00:15:57,856 --> 00:16:01,560
to be your best man.
>> Deacon: Finn, it would make

309
00:16:01,627 --> 00:16:03,862
the day so much more memorable.
I mean, especially for your mom,

310
00:16:03,929 --> 00:16:05,597
you know?
To see you standing up there

311
00:16:05,664 --> 00:16:08,167
for us and with Hope,
God willing.

312
00:16:08,233 --> 00:16:11,003

I'm trying to be

313
00:16:11,070 --> 00:16:15,007
as supportive as possible,
but you know Steffy.

314
00:16:15,074 --> 00:16:17,276
She, rightfully so,
doesn't want me

315
00:16:17,343 --> 00:16:19,411
anywhere near Sheila.
>> Deacon: I get it, I do.

316
00:16:19,478 --> 00:16:22,548
I also know that you're
the kind of man that makes

317
00:16:22,614 --> 00:16:24,783
his own decisions.
I mean, look, man, I'm not

318
00:16:24,850 --> 00:16:26,618
trying to cause any problems
for you in your marriage.

319
00:16:26,685 --> 00:16:28,520
>> Finn: Okay, well,
that's exactly what it would do

320
00:16:28,587 --> 00:16:32,791
if I agreed to go...
be your best man.

321
00:16:32,858 --> 00:16:35,060
>> Deacon: So you're
turning me down?

322
00:16:35,127 --> 00:16:37,896
>> Finn: Look, I'm--
I'm truly happy for you.

323
00:16:37,963 --> 00:16:40,199
You are giving Sheila hope
for a better

00:16:40,265 --> 00:16:43,702
and brighter future,
and I think that's incredible.

325
00:16:43,769 --> 00:16:45,971
But I just--
I can't go to the wedding.

326
00:16:46,038 --> 00:16:48,307
You understand?
>> Deacon: I understand, yeah.

327
00:16:48,374 --> 00:16:55,314
I just don't know how your mom's
gonna feel about it.

328
00:16:55,381 --> 00:16:57,883
>> Finn: Oh, did you--
you heard?

329
00:16:57,950 --> 00:17:01,520
Hey, look, I'm-- I'm sorry,
and like I said, I--

330
00:17:01,587 --> 00:17:03,756
I want your happiness,
and I think you found it

331
00:17:03,822 --> 00:17:07,926
with a good man.
But me, being at the ceremony,

332
00:17:07,993 --> 00:17:13,165
being his best man,
I can't do that.

333
00:17:13,232 --> 00:17:17,102
>> Sheila: You can't,
or Steffy won't let you?

334
00:17:17,169 --> 00:17:20,139
Hey, look, it's-- it's okay.
I don't want to upset Steffy

335
00:17:20,205 --> 00:17:25,144
and make things harder for you.
But I'm-- I'm your mom.

336
00:17:25,210 --> 00:17:27,780
I gave birth to you,
and we've already

337
00:17:27,846 --> 00:17:29,882
missed spending so much
of our life together,

338
00:17:29,948 --> 00:17:35,320
and now I'm marrying Deacon.
I finally found love.

339
00:17:35,387 --> 00:17:37,823
I mean, something I've been
yearning for my entire life,

340
00:17:37,890 --> 00:17:40,893
and it is going to be
a magical day.

341
00:17:40,959 --> 00:17:46,632
A day that we would really
love you to be a part of.

342
00:17:46,698 --> 00:17:51,637
I'm not trying to make things
tough on you,

343
00:17:51,703 --> 00:17:55,340
but it would be so meaningful
to have you there.

344
00:17:55,407 --> 00:17:58,744
I mean, to...
[ Finn chuckles ]

345
00:17:58,811 --> 00:18:03,081
to have you just smiling at me
during the ceremony,

346
00:18:03,148 --> 00:18:08,320
you know, so please...
say you'll be there,

347
00:18:08,387 --> 00:18:11,523
