>> Brooke: Okay. If you change your mind
and you want somebody else to do this, just let me...
>> Ridge: What are you doing? We talked about this.
>> Brooke: Well, it's just... >> Ridge: It's just what?
You're gonna blow them away the same way you blew 'em away
when you first did this campaign.
>> Brooke: You do wonders for my ego, Mr. Forrester.
>> Ridge: I have every confidence in you.
>> Brooke: Mwah. >> Hope: Oh, my gosh.
Is that the... >> Ridge: The original bed
from the original campaign? No, it's not,
but it's very close. >> Steffy: Yeah, we retired
the original one. Too many miles on it.
>> Poppy: Are you sure you have to go?
>> Bill: Mm. [chuckles] When you kiss me like that,
I'm not sure of anything. >> Poppy: You know, we could
just crawl back into bed and... >> Bill: Yeah?
>> Poppy: ...pick up where we left off last night.
>> Bill: That's very tempting. >> Poppy: I just want
to be close to you, Bill. Especially after...
>> Bill: After what? >> Poppy: After Katie
coming over here and drilling me,
asking question after question, saying how determined she is
to get answers. I know you two were married
and you share a child, but... it was really unnerving.
>> Bill: You have to trust me. In my case,
probably well deserved. But I have been on the receiving
end of Katie's third degrees. I understand that you're
feeling a bit unnerved. Listen to me.
You have nothing to worry about with my ex-wife.
Katie's harmless.
>> Katie: Wow.
No wonder Bill was at that festival.
It's one breakout act after another.
And some new bands, too. [gasps]
Oh, my gosh.
He was there. Tom Starr was playing at the festival.

>> Hope: Well, I'm so excited for you, Mom.
It has been too long. >> Ridge: I agree.
And so do all her fans all around the world. They've
been clamoring for something like this for a long time.
>> Steffy: Brooke and her infamous red teddy sprawled out
on that infamous brass bed. >> Brooke: Hmm.
My sprawling days are over, Steffy.
But I do still have that red teddy.
You could even ask your father. [phone chimes]
>> Ridge: Trust me, she has it. Okay, Zende's gonna be here
very soon. You're gonna rock this photo shoot.

to be fabulous, Mom. Won't she, Steffy?
[Bill whistles] >> Bill: Jam-packed today.
Think you can squeeze me in? >> Deacon: Oh, they just
keep on coming, don't they? What do you want, Spencer?
>> Bill: Health department hasn't shut you down yet?
I mean, rats are one thing. You got a couple of dead bodies
in here and you're still open? >> Deacon: For your information,
the authorities and the health department have checked us out
and Il Giardino is clean. >> Bill: Well, clearly,
word hasn't gotten out yet. >> Deacon: Well, when it does,
we'll be back up and running, but it's not gonna be the same.
>> Bill: I imagine not. You got two employees
that croaked in here. >> Deacon: They were more
than that. They were my friends. >> Bill: Well, I hate to say it,
but being your friend seems to be hazardous to one's health.
I mean, you got two mysterious deaths in here
from drug overdoses just a few days apart.
Cops come up with anything yet? >> Deacon: All I get from them
is "the investigation is ongoing."
>> Bill: So nothing. >> Deacon: I just keep going
over in my head. What if it wasn't really
an overdose? >> Bill: The toxicology reports
came back, right? >> Deacon: Yeah. No, it did.
It confirmed that they both OD'd.
But what it didn't say is how it happened or why it happened.
It doesn't even say if Tom and Hollis realized it.
What if they were targeted? You know, what if somebody
actually specifically wanted to kill Tom and Hollis,
but they made it look like an overdose, when in reality,
it was a murder? I mean, if that's how it went
down, Bill, that means somebody else is still
out there, and they may be ready to strike again.

>> Katie: Hello, Poppy. [Poppy gasps]
>> Poppy: Katie. What are you doing here?
>> Katie: Oh. You're not happy to see me?
>> Poppy: After last time? The things you said?
>> Katie: Well, I had questions, and you weren't
very forthcoming, so I didn't have any choice.
>> Poppy: Well, what is that supposed to mean?
>> Katie: I said I was gonna learn everything about you,
and it turns out I have learned something
absolutely fascinating. You see, I did a little research
on that music festival where you and Bill met,
that fateful night that brought the two of you, um, together.
And as it happens, there was someone else at that festival.
Someone on the stage. Tom Starr.

this road again. >> Ridge: Okay, let's take
it easy, you guys, please. >> Hope: No, Ridge, it's fine.
I'm just curious as to why Steffy feels this way.
>> Steffy: Brooke has been in the spotlight
for years as the face of Brooke's bedroom line.
>> Hope: Very successful years. >> Steffy: Absolutely.
That's true. But I-- >> Brooke: Okay, but...
I am older now. Maybe I shouldn't try
to recreate this magic. >> Ridge: Don't do this.
You look as amazing as ever. >> Hope: I agree.
>> Ridge: Which is exactly why you're gonna make
this powerful impact on women of all ages all over the world.

not just for Brooke's Bedroom, but to also show
that true beauty doesn't fade With age.

how glad I am to see you.

No pun intended. >> Deacon: Tell me about it.
The restaurant's in the skids. I gotta do something,
something to bring the customers back,
let them know that it's safe to be here.
But the truth of it is, I just don't have it
in me right now. All I can think about
is the senseless way that Tom and Hollis died.
[phone dinging] I gotta take this. Excuse me.
>> Justin: Dollar Bill. Just the man I was looking for.
>> Bill: Well, we gotta stop meeting like this
or people are gonna talk. >> Justin: Yeah. Yeah.
So, did you get the tickets I sent over?
Astros. Dodgers. In Houston. All accommodations
taken care of. Now the box just may happen
to be next to Howard, who just may be wanting to put
his stations back online unless there is a media titan
who, in my opinion, can structure M&A's
better than anyone else and can strike a deal while
taking in the old ball game. [both chuckle]
>> Bill: Listen, Justin, I-- I'm just really glad
that we were able to work through our issues.
>> Justin: Yeah. >> Bill: All right? And we made
the impossible possible. It's good to have you
back with us. >> Justin: We did.
Good to be back. Good to be back, man.
>> Deacon: Justin. >> Justin: Hey.
>> Deacon: What are you doing here?
>> Bill: Oh, we're just, uh, talking--talking some ball here.
I was just talking to Deacon about these mysterious deaths
that have taken place right here in Il Giardino.
>> Deacon: You were here that night. I saw you.
>> Justin: Yeah. Um... So, how are you holding up?
>> Deacon: Well, I'm just trying to get to the bottom
of this whole thing. By the way, did I mention
to you that I, uh--I checked the security cameras
from before. There was a power outage
the night that Hollis died. >> Bill: You think
that's significant? >> Deacon: Maybe. Maybe not.
Could just be a coincidence. >> Bill: Well, if you're
thinking foul play was involved, I would suggest you look
no further than your wifey. >> Deacon: Police took Sheila in
for questioning. They released her.
My bride had nothing to do with it,
but somebody could have. The question is who.

at the music festival. Well, he also recently
overdosed at Il Giardino, a restaurant that you
and Bill frequent often. >> Poppy: Well, what are
you getting at? >> Katie: Well, I just think
it's awfully coincidental, don't you?
I mean, the same guy that performed before you
and Bill at a music festival in San Francisco
also performed at Il Giardino. >> Poppy: I guess so. And, yeah,
now that you mentioned it, I do recall that Tom Starr
did perform at that festival. But, um,
why are you bringing it up? >> Katie: Well, that was
the same night where you claim Luna was conceived.

trusting guy. >> Deacon: She was my wife.
Of course I trust her. [Bill chuckles]

the same woman anymore. [Bill laughs]
>> Bill: Okay, if you say so. >> Deacon: Listen.
I know that you both hate Sheila's guts,
but don't come into my restaurant
and badmouth my wife, okay? I don't do that to you.
I don't show contempt for the new woman in your life.
>> Bill: Are you referring to Poppy?
>> Deacon: Let me ask you something. How would you feel
if I started taking potshots at her, talking about her past
and trashing it? [Bill laughs]
>> Bill: Wait a second. Is this clown trying to compare
Poppy to Sheila Carter? Are you? 'Cause if so, you must have
spent just way too much time pounding out those
license plates in prison and it somehow diminished
your mental capacity. >> Justin: Come on, Deacon.
Those two women are polar opposites in every way.
>> Deacon: Look, if Poppy makes you happy, Bill,
that's terrific. Just don't come in here
talking about the woman who makes me happy.
>> Justin: Okay. We're gonna change the subject.
>> Bill: No, no, no, no, no, no. Not so fast. I wanna
make something crystal clear for the convict, all right?
You're right. Poppy does make me happy.
And she has given me a beautiful daughter
that I am thrilled with. And having both of those women
in my life makes me a very lucky man.
>> Deacon: Just like I'm a lucky man
to have Sheila in mine. >> Bill: Well, there's one
big difference, though. You hooked up
with a known murderer. I didn't.
>> Poppy: I don't appreciate what you're implying, Katie.
>> Katie: I'm just asking some questions,
just looking for some answers. I'm trying so hard to understand
why you waited 20 years to do a paternity test.
It doesn't make any sense. >> Poppy: Okay, well, not that
it's any of your business, but Bill never reached out
after that night and I was hurt. >> Katie: But you did know
his history. Spencer Publications. The fact
that he was rich and powerful. >> Poppy: No, I did not.
Because despite what my sister Li loves to tell everyone,
I am not now nor have I ever been a gold digger.
So, yeah, it took me a long time to build up the nerve
to do a paternity test. >> Katie: And to let
the world know that Luna is Bill's daughter.
>> Poppy: It's true, Katie. >> Katie: A daughter
who was conceived on the same night
that Tom Starr was performing. Tom Starr, who worked
at Il Giardino and mysteriously died of a drug overdose.

poor man's death? >> Katie: Well, I wasn't
gonna say anything, but since you brought it up.
His overdose. Did you have anything
to do with it? Are you a liar? A gold digger?
