>> Ridge: Hope has created a real mess.
What was she doing?
This is a line you can't cross.
She was kissing Finn--what is that?
What was she thinking?
>> Brooke: That's the problem.
She wasn't thinking.
She was just very confused.
>> Ridge: She was confused?
W-what's the confusion?
First she goes after my son, then my son-in-law--what's next?
>> Brooke: Okay, Ridge!
She knows the kiss was wrong.
It's not gonna happen again.
>> Ridge: No, it's not gonna happen again, because you see
what it's doing.
You saw how upset Taylor was by what Hope did.
>> Finn: Well, Taylor's not the only one.
Steffy's very upset too, and understandably so.
She's gone.
>> Ridge: What do you mean, she's gone? What does that mean?
>> Finn: My wife left town.
♪♪♪ >> Bill: I know, Justin, but I
need more information.
Yeah.
Well, what do your contacts say?
How's Poppy doing?
How's she handling everything?
All right. Yeah, no.
I know it's tough.
All right, thanks.
>> Katie: So, uh...
I heard the news.
You don't have a daughter anymore.
♪♪♪
>> Bill: How'd you find out?
>> Katie: R.J.
>> Bill: Well, course.
Luna told him.
>> Katie: Well, you know, he is her boyfriend, and she's going
through a lot right now.
>> Bill: I'm glad she has him to talk to.
>> Katie: What about you?
I know you must be very hurt and disappointed.
>> Bill: I lost a daughter.
I loved having a daughter.
And not just any daughter.
Luna.
>> Ridge: So Steffy's gone?
She left because of that kiss at my dad's house?
>> Finn: Yeah.
>> Ridge: See? This is what Hope did--this is it.
Never shoulda done it.
>> Finn: No.
>> Brooke: She's very regretful, Finn.
>> Finn: Well, she should be.
What was she thinking?
She can't just kiss me.
>> Ridge: Okay, so Steffy did what--what happened?
>> Finn: She's very upset.
>> Brooke: With Hope.
>> Finn: Yeah, definitely with Hope, but with me too.
And rightfully so.
>> Brooke: Why? You didn't encourage the kiss.
>> Finn: No, I didn't enc--I never saw it coming.
One minute I'm listening to Danny Romalotti perform, and the
next, your daughter has her lips on mine.
That's how little she respects my marriage.
And now Steffy has asked for space, she's asked me not to
contact her and that she'll be in touch.
So I'll tell you one thing--it is not a very good feeling not
knowing where your wife is.

>> Katie: This has been incredibly hard on you too,
Bill.
>> Bill: I'm not thinking about myself right now.
It's Luna who's lost everything.
>> Katie: Well, not everything.
She still has R.J., she has her job at Forrester, people who
care about her.
And she has you, Bill.
>> Bill: And I'm determined to be here for her through these
confusing times, no matter how they turn out.
>> Katie: Well, if the accusations against Poppy are
right, Luna's probably going to have to visit her mother in jail
for many, many-- >> Bill: Or somebody else
committed those murders.
>> Katie: Like who, Bill?
Poppy had motive.
She had opportunity.
Tom Starr wasn't going to stop, and she was desperate to hold on
to her life with you.
>> Bill: Desperate people go to desperate measures.
The Poppy that I knew, or...
thought I knew...
What?
>> Katie: Well, it's just that you're talking about Poppy in
the past tense.
Does that mean that she's out of your life now?
>> Bill: I haven't made any decisions, Katie.
You know, I-I'm just trying to process all of this.
The woman that I was sharing my life with was arrested.
I've lost her, lost my daughter.
I-I'm just...taking things one day at a time.
>> Katie: Well, I'll speak to Will.
He should know that he no longer has a sister.
Not that he really had a chance to get to know Luna.
>> Bill: That's a shame.
I'm sure she could use a brother for support.
She's a victim in all of this.
>> Finn: Oh, I had to tell Steffy about the kiss.
There's no way I was gonna keep it from her.
Secrets ruin marriages, and I was not gonna risk that
happening to us, not after everything, all the challenges
that we've overcome.
>> Ridge: Not just overcome.
You're stronger because of them.
>> Finn: Look, and I'll always be truthful to your daughter,
Ridge--she deserves nothing less.
But if I'm being honest, I wish I hadn't had to tell her about
that kiss.
Especially because Steffy warned me to stay away.
>> Brooke: From Hope?
>> Finn: Yeah, from Hope, and I should have listened to her.
I should have kept my distance, but no, I'm so willing to give
everyone the benefit of the doubt, including Hope.
Something Steffy had pointed out to me time and time again.
>> Brooke: Hope isn't like this, Finn--she doesn't go around
kissing married men.
>> Finn: No. Just one married man who thought she knew the
difference between friendship and whatever fantasy she created
in her mind about me.
>> Brooke: Okay, look, I'm not gonna make excuses for her.
>> Finn: Good. Because what Hope did--
I never led her on, Brooke.
I mean, I never gave her any reason for her to think that it
would be okay for her to kiss me.
There were no mixed signals.
And now I'm here without my wife wondering where she is and if
she's okay.
♪♪♪ [groans]
>> Steffy: [softly] Luna?
Where am I?
What happened to me?
♪♪♪
>> Bill: I mean, think about it.
Luna's life has unraveled in the span of just a few days.
I'm surprised she's able to handle it at all.
>> Katie: Well, if you had turned your back on her, she
probably wouldn't have.
>> Bill: What kind of man would I be if I'd done that?
Even though she's not my daughter, so we don't share that
biological connection, but I want her to know that I am
here for her if she needs me.
Especially if her mother goes to trial.
>> Katie: Oh, I think it's more a matter of when and not if.
Luna's gonna have to face that, and meanwhile...
>> Bill: In the meanwhile, I told her my home is her home
for as long as she needs it.
>> Katie: I'm sure she's appreciative of that, but that
situation can't go on forever, and Luna must realize that,
right?
>> Bill: She's in crisis.
Vulnerable.
She needs support.
>> Katie: Your support.
>> Bill: And she has R.J.
I'm sure that's really comforting for her.
He gives her a lot of support.
>> Katie: Yeah. It's interesting--my nephew told me
something that Luna said.
She said that she wanted to be here for you...
that she really loves you.
♪♪♪ >> Ridge: I know it's hard not
to worry.
>> Finn: Yeah, well, Steffy's my world.
She's my life, and I just keep hurting her.
>> Brooke: You aren't to blame, Finn.
>> Finn: What, for the kiss from your daughter? No.
I didn't want that.
I didn't initiate that, but that was the final straw for Steffy,
and I get it.
>> Ridge: Final straw? What is-- what?
>> Finn: Your daughter and I have been dealing with a lot for
a while, Ridge.
I mean, first it's Sheila and...
[sighs] this connection to my biological mother that I
couldn't shake, this connection that I still don't understand to
this day.
I mean, the woman almost cost me everything--my wife's life, my
mother's life, my own life.
I just kept getting drawn in and letting Sheila get too
close.
And then the same thing happens with Hope.
I let her get into my head, and I get pulled into her emotions.
Whether it's the fallout from the breakup with Thomas or the
problems with Hope for the Future or whatever stress that
she's dealing with, I'm right there listening to her, offering
her a friendly shoulder.
>> Brooke: That's the kind of man you are.
>> Finn: Yeah, but your daughter saw something else and she made
it into something else.
That's why Steffy was so adamant that I stay away.
She knew that Hope had been an emotional train wreck since
Thomas and that she was more and more becoming...
>> Brooke: Becoming...
the way her mother used to be.
>> Finn: Steffy saw all the signs--she didn't trust Hope,
and she warned me that I shouldn't either, just like she
warned me about Sheila.
I'm just like why didn't I listen to her?
I-I keep...putting myself in these situations that'll
undermine my marriage and my wife's faith in me.
>> Ridge: Don't-don't do that.
Steffy loves you.
She's not gonna lose faith in you, she's not.
>> Finn: Yeah, well, she's frustrated enough and she's
upset enough to feel like that was the only choice was for her
to leave.
>> Ridge: All right, good, let her leave, let her take a
moment, and then she'll be back.
>> Finn: I know that she can take care of herself, but I
don't like...
not being there for Steffy if she needs me.
>> Steffy: Luna, what's...
what's going on?
Why is there a cage?
>> Luna: I know. It's a little unsightly for an apartment,
but it'll have to do.
Easy pickings when you're living in a building that's about to be
demo'd.
Oh, getting it in here was a whole nother story, though.
>> Steffy: My head.
[groans] Ah, my head's throbbing.
>> Luna: Don't worry.
The effects will wear off soon.
>> Steffy: The effects?
The effects of what?
You drugged me.
I drank the iced tea, and then I collapsed.
[whispering] Oh, wait...
Why-why-why am I in a cage?
What are you doing to me?
You let me out of here!
Let me out!
Let me out of here! now!
Help! Help!
>> Katie: Is there anything I can do for you, Bill?
>> Bill: You're already doing it.
Just being here.
Showing how much you care.
>> Katie: Well, of course I care.
You're the father of my son.
We're family.
>> Bill: Thank you for being my guardian angel.
>> Katie: Is that what I am?
>> Bill: And so much more.
Feels like the rug was pulled out from under me.
>> Katie: Well, it sort of was.
But you have to know how much your family loves you.
Your sons...
you're so important to them.
>> Bill: And you?
>> Katie: And to me.
♪♪♪ >> Finn: I just-I don't know
where Steffy went.
>> Ridge: I'm sure it's the way she wanted it.
>> Brooke: What about the kids?
Are they okay?
>> Finn: No, they're covered.
Steffy would never wanna upset Kelly or Hayes.
>> Ridge: She's gonna be fine, and if she's gone for more than
a few days, then we'll talk to them about it.
>> Finn: Well, I hope that's all it is.
I hope Steffy realizes that I never wanted any of this.
That kiss from Hope--and I never kissed her back, I never would,
because I am committed to my wife, I love my wife.
I love my family and everything that we've built together.
I want her to come home.
I wanna get back to us.
The way we were before, before Sheila and before what Hope did.
I love your daughter, Ridge, and I miss her and...
I just need to know that she's all right...
wherever she is.
>> Steffy: Luna, what the hell do you think you're doing?
What are you doing?
I saw you.
I saw you kissing Bill, and I came here to confront you.
>> Luna: That's something you never should have done--you
should have stayed out of it.
>> Steffy: Bill Spencer is my daughter's grandfather.
He is family.
You think I'd just walk away and let you get away with--
>> Luna: My mother is in jail for murdering two men.
My whole world has been blown apart, and Bill is the only
person in the world who understands me.
>> Steffy: That's how you show appreciation, by kissing him?
Really?
>> Luna: I mean, you said it yourself--he's no longer my
father, and we're both adults.
>> Steffy: Oh, my god, are you listening to yourself?
Bill is with your mother.
>> Luna: Not for long.
Not after a jury finds her guilty.
>> Steffy: Oh, my god.
Oh, my god, you want this.
You want this.
You want Poppy in jail so you can be with Bill.
Oh, my god, that's why you did it--that is why you did it,
why you drugged Tom and Hollis, and now they are dead.
It is because of you.
That's why you drugged me.
You wanted to get them out of the way. They are dead--
>> Luna: No, no, no!
>> Steffy: They are dead because of you! You are responsible.
The truth is out--you are not gonna get away from it.
>> Luna: I've gotten away with it so far.
Yeah, I did it.
It was me.
I killed both Hollis and my deadbeat father Tom.
And you...aren't telling a soul.
>> Steffy: No!
Help me!
Help! [cries out]
