is to welcome Liam home.

You see, that's why I pay Justin

Will you just relax?

I want to savor this moment.

I've got my two older boys

You're all gonna help me

the celebratory balloon

a joyous occasion, by the way.

Bill has meddled a whole lot

you worked here.

Liam, I could have lost you.

Katie could have died.

But miracle of miracles,

I've got you both here,

I couldn't ask

a better family.

Everything

>> Brooke: So it's official.

Thomas and Hope

are co-parenting Douglas.

>> Donna: Thomas signed

the custody papers?

>> Brooke: Finally.

>> Katie: How did she manage

to make that happen?

>> Brooke: Well, she is

his weak spot,

and his obsession with her

usually is pretty disturbing

and scary,

but not this time.

She is officially

a legal guardian of Douglas,

and she gets to make decisions.

>> Katie: How does Ridge feel

about that? Because I know

he was against joint custody.

>> Brooke: Ridge isn't too happy

about many things these days,

that involve me.

is everything all right?

No.

Ridge and I aren't together

I can't remember the last time

Ridge and I went

you and Ridge should agree

If there was ever

a better solution

than ending your relationship.

Are you upset?

He's not listening to me at all,

before. I don't like it.

along with Thomas

when he's not here with me

or down at the cabin

with Hope and Liam.

they're not the only residents.

>> Brooke: What do you mean?

>> Donna: I just spoke to Pam,

and apparently Shauna Fulton

is in their guesthouse.

>> Brooke: Excuse me?

>> Donna: And Shauna has made

no secret of her--

I don't know what you call it,

her, uh, fascination with Ridge.

>> Katie: Do you think

that Shauna maneuvered her way

into the guesthouse

because she knew that Ridge

was going to be there?

using this hard time

It--It's the universe

that I've been saying,

which is Sally is not the woman

so opposed to this?

You victimized Sally,

not the other way around.

That's ancient history.

And listen, I've got nothing

much against Sally.

And if you end up marrying her,

I'll welcome her

Maybe I was too hard on Thomas.

Maybe I was just being

too strong with Ridge.

Thomas faked his own death.

This cannot possibly

be permanent.

from Thomas,

so what was I supposed to do,

not speak up?

the right thing.

I'd get angry

I sent Ridge out that front door

I tried calling him,

tried texting him.

Nothing. No response.

Maybe it's just

a little too much too soon.

He needs to realize

that he doesn't want

That's just

an emotional response.

It's not really what he wants.

the way I feel about Thomas.

I'll never forgive him

how he stole

those precious moments

from Hope and Beth

my daughter
