>> Sally: Is there anything she

doesnt eat?

>> Wyatt: I -- Pfft. I mean...

nobodys pickier than Liam,

right?

>> Sally: You didnt ask her,

did you?

>> Wyatt: No.

But dont stress about it, okay?

Cause Flo goes with the flow,

you know?

Thats always her motto.

>> Sally: Okay.

So, one more steak and another

couple chicken breasts?

>> Wyatt: Look, that should be

perfect, okay?

And Im sorry again.

I kind of threw you a curveball.

>> Sally: Hey, look, Im glad

shes coming over.

You know everything about my

past, and I barely know anything

about yours.

>> Wyatt: Right. Well, dont ask

her too much, cause nothing

good can come of that.

>> Sally: Mm.

Oh!

And dont answer the phone, just

in case Hope and Liam are

thinking of backing out.

>> Wyatt: Good call.

>> Sally: Yeah.

>> Liam: Youre not dressed.

>> Hope: Im dressed.

This is as far as I got.

So, I was thinking --

>> Liam: No, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no.

I know what youre gonna say,

okay?

Youd rather stay home.

But think about it.

Dinner with Wyatt and Sally --

thats gonna be easy, right?

Because they understand.

And, hell, my brothers a party

all unto himself.

We have to start living our

lives again, Hope.

Dont you think?

>> Steffy: What is that?

>> Taylor: Technology.

Make your own baby food.

>> Steffy: You know I can do

that with a blender.

>> Taylor: Only after slicing

and dicing and draining and

boiling.

This little gizmo does it all --

frees you up for other things.

>> Steffy: Thats pretty cool.

I like the sound of it.

>> Taylor: I know I havent been

around much to help, and once my

practice starts going

full-time...

>> Steffy: Mom, nobodys happier

than I am that youre rebuilding

your life.

>> Taylor: Well, thats because

you gave me the space to do it.

Thanks to you and those two

beautiful little granddaughters

of mine, Im excited about the

future again.

>> Steffy: [ Chuckles ]

>> Xander: Dinner smells

amazing.

>> Zoe: Yeah? Pot roast.

Very American...

[ British accent ] to go with

our new personas.

>> Xander: Ah.

That didnt sound very American.

>> Zoe: [ American accent ]

Okay. Dont judge me.

It hasnt been an easy week.

>> Xander: How can I help?

>> Zoe: Well, how bout just

saying nice things to me...

and being my boy toy?

♪♪

>> Zoe: Okay.

I hope you are hungry.

>> Xander: Have I ever not been?

>> Zoe: [ Chuckles ]

>> Xander: You know, I-I wish

youd just let me take you out.

>> Zoe: Oh, well, sometimes its

nice to be private.

>> Xander: Yeah, but...

you need pampering way more than

I do.

>> Zoe: [ Scoffs ]

I deserve that.

Is that what my horoscope says

or something?

>> Xander: [ Chuckles ]

No, its just...

you know, I can tell somethings

weighing on you.

Is it your father?

So, youve -- youve heard from

him, then?

>> Zoe: No.

And, uh, I dont want to.

>> Taylor: You just pour in a

little water and set the timer,

and then itll steam and puree

the sweet potatoes or the

carrots or apples or --

Ow! Ow!

>> Steffy: Mom, are you okay?

Are you bleeding?

Here.

>> Taylor: Its just enough to

make me feel foolish.

>> Steffy: Its okay?

>> Taylor: Yeah, its okay.

>> Steffy: Someones a little

rusty with a knife.

>> Taylor: Oh. Yeah.

Well, its...

been a little while.

I havent had a reason to be

domestic until Kelly and Phoebe.

>> Steffy: Yeah.

Seriously, are you really okay?

>> Taylor: Im okay.

>> Steffy: Okay.

Yeah, well, I-I know what you

mean.

Im really good at running the

company, but...

nothing compares to doing all

the little practical things for

the girls.

>> Taylor: So, no regrets about

the adoption?

>> Steffy: No.

Kelly wasnt meant to be an only

child.

All Phoebe did was complete us.

[ Knock on door ]

>> Wyatt: Hey! You found us.

Come on in.

>> Flo: I did, yeah.

I was -- I was pretty sure I was

in the wrong place and some

movie stars guard dog was gonna

come running out at me.

>> Wyatt: [ Laughs ]

>> Flo: Its -- Its gorgeous.

I feel like Im in some

Cinderella fairy tale.

>> Wyatt: Speaking of gorgeous,

you look amazing.

[ Clears throat ]

Sally just, uh, took off to get

some things, and shell be right

back.

>> Flo: And your brother and his

wife?

>> Wyatt: Ah, theyre not here

yet.

But I do have to warn you that

they are so likable, its

sickening.

>> Flo: Oh.

It must run in the family.

>> Wyatt: [ Chuckles ]

>> Hope: I just -- I hate having

you see me like this, let alone

other people.

>> Liam: Hope, you survived

something devastating, and

everybody who knows you knows

that.

Right? I mean, certainly, Wyatt

and Sally do, and, listen, if we

decide to leave early, they will

understand that, too.

Look at it this way.

We will never find an easier

re-entry into a social life than

this one.

>> Hope: Youre right.

I have to try.

>> Liam: [ Smooches ]

>> Xander: This is insanely

delicious.

>> Zoe: Youve seriously never

had pot roast?

Well, it was always one of my

fathers favorites.

>> Xander: Okay.

I didnt bring him up this time.

You did.

>> Zoe: Right.

So...how bout we just turn back

the dial to five minutes ago?

>> Xander: Did something happen

since he left, or before he

left, to make you lose patience

with him?

>> Zoe: Its just every time I

think that hes going to be a

better man and make better

decisions, he just -- you know,

he lets me down.

Hes gambled away his money and

his principles, too.

And when I think of some of the

things hes done to cover his

losses, it...

horrifies me.

>> Wyatt: Ah. Here you go.

>> Flo: Thank you.

>> Wyatt: Yeah.

>> Flo: You know, it really

makes me so happy to see how

well youve done for yourself.

>> Wyatt: [ Chuckling ] Yeah.

Well, I mean, some of it comes

with being a Spencer.

I mean, my mom and I did well

when I was Wyatt Fuller and

everything, but land of

opportunity, I guess.

Um [Clears throat] but, Im

telling you, I-I think...

that you should --

I dont know --

think about moving here.

>> Flo: I dont know.

Its such a big city, and I-I

didnt think I was gonna run in

to anyone I knew, but...

>> Wyatt: Right.

>> Flo: ...here we are.

>> Wyatt: Yeah.

Well, two people, right?

>> Flo: Yeah.

>> Wyatt: I mean, one of them

was that friend that you were

gonna help.

>> Flo: Yeah, but nothing --

nothing good came of that one.

>> Wyatt: I mean, I can think of

one good thing.

>> Flo: What?

>> Wyatt: You being here

tonight.

Hey, babe!

>> Sally: Hi.

>> Wyatt: I didnt -- I didnt

know you were gonna get so much

stuff.

>> Sally: Well, yeah.

I was at the store anyway.

>> Wyatt: Thanks.

>> Sally: Flo!

So glad you could join us!

>> Wyatt: Yeah. As you probably

have guessed, this is my boo,

Sally Spectra.

[ Chuckles ]

>> Sally: Hi.

>> Flo: Its so nice to meet

you.

>> Sally: Yeah! Same here.

>> Flo: Thanks for having me.

Um, is there anything that I can

help with?

>> Sally: Yeah. Actually, you

can tell me all of the adorable

and possibly sinister things

that Wyatt did in high school.

>> Flo: [ Chuckles ]

Well, um...

he had a mohawk in 9th grade for

like 10 minutes.

>> Wyatt: Uh [Chuckles] yeah, it

was a fauxhawk, thank you very

much.

Here.

>> Sally: Thats it?

>> Flo: Some people just arent

really that secretive.

>> Sally: Well, true, I guess.

Wyatt and I have that in common.

>> Wyatt: [ Chuckles ]

>> Flo: I used to be like that,

too.

>> Sally: Now youre a woman of

mystery?

>> Flo: No. Just more like a

woman who...

has a few things she wont

willingly bring up.

>> Wyatt: [ Chuckles ]

You know, I think I should, uh,

maybe turn on the grill.

>> Sally: Uh, yeah, if you think

we can count on your brother.

>> Wyatt: Well, dont even get

me started on my brothers

timing.

[ Knock on door ]

Actually, there he is.

>> Sally: Okay.

Seriously, though, theres got

to be something about Wyatt.

>> Flo: Really, I mean...

>> Wyatt: Hey.

>> Liam: Hey. Sorry were late.

>> Wyatt: No, come on.

I didnt even put the portobello

on the barbie yet.

>> Hope: [ Chuckles ]

>> Liam: Ahh.

>> Wyatt: [ Chuckles ]

Uh, guys, I want you to meet an

old friend of mine --

a young old friend.

Uh, Flo Fulton, this is my

brother Liam and, uh --

>> Flo: Oh.

>> Hope: You.

>> Sally: You two have met?

>> Hope: Uh, earlier today.

Liam, this is her.

This is --

This is Phoebes birth mother.

>> Xander: Did something new

happen between you and Reese,

and, if so, did I miss it?

>> Zoe: Look, I dont really

want to talk about my father

tonight.

>> Xander: But you were worried

about him.

>> Zoe: But he packed his bags.

He left.

And Im sitting across the table

from a very different man

[Chuckles softly] a man who

works hard, whos honest, a man

who Im lucky to have in my

life, a man who I trust enough

to even think of building a

future with.

>> Xander: Yeah, and that future

is gonna look nothing like our

messed-up past.

>> Zoe: Yeah, unless, uh, I

become impossible and you pack

up and leave the country.

>> Xander: [ Chuckles ]

I bet you $100 that thats not

gonna happen.

>> Zoe: Oh. No wager, please.

>> Xander: No, I was --

I was kidding.

>> Zoe: I guess having a father

who bets on anything kind of

warped my sense of humor.

>> Xander: Sorry.

Forgive me?

>> Zoe: Give me one good reason

why I should.

Okay. I might need a second

reason.

>> Xander: Yeah.

>> Steffy: Okay.

Thats good.

Yeah. Im not cooking again.

You and I, were, uh --

were gonna eat what Kelly eats.

Its actually good.

>> Taylor: Can I tell you how

much I love seeing you happy?

A little fatigued but happy.

>> Steffy: Yeah. Yeah, I am.

Its true.

[ Sighs ] I just feel like...

I feel like I stole something

from someone who deserved it

more.

>> Taylor: Well, you didnt.

>> Steffy: What if Flo is having

second thoughts about giving up

her parental rights?

>> Taylor: She knows how to

reach you.

You tried to include her, but it

wasnt what she wanted.

Maybe it takes shutting down

certain feelings to be able to

do what she had to do.

>> Steffy: Wherever Flo is, I

hope she knows that Phoebe is in

a happy, loving home.

>> Hope: I dont understand.

>> Flo: Your -- Your brother

is -- is married to --

>> Wyatt: To Hope.

You met earlier today?

>> Flo: So, you must be...

>> Liam: How do you know my

brother?

>> Flo: We, um -- We --

We dated in high school.

>> Wyatt: I thought it was a

little more serious than that.

We were high-school sweethearts.

>> Sally: Oh. Now he tells me.

>> Wyatt: Babe, seriously, that

was, like, a lifetime ago.

I-I-I didnt even know she was

working at Bikini.

>> Hope: Thats where she and I

met today, too.

>> Wyatt: I had no idea you had

any other connection with the

people in L.A.

No, thats not true.

You had a friend.

>> Flo: I dont want to talk

about it, please.

>> Liam: Well, I think its fair

to say this awkward.

>> Sally: [ Scoffs ] Yeah.

This poor woman walks into a

house full of strangers who

suddenly decides to discuss her

highly personal and private

business.

Maybe...

lets just let our guest have a

little breathing room.

>> Hope: I -- Yeah.

I am so, so sorry.

I didnt mean to just blurt it

out like that.

>> Flo: You dont have to

apologize.

>> Wyatt: Did you think you

couldnt tell me, like Id be

shocked?

>> Flo: No. I just, um --

>> Wyatt: So then whyd you say

you never had any kids?

>> Xander: [ Sighs ]

>> Zoe: [ Sighs ]

I really miss him.

>> Xander: Poor Harry.

You think we should get a new

cat?

>> Zoe: Prince Harry is

irreplaceable.

You dont just tell someone

whos lost a child that, "Ah,

dont worry.

You can have another one."

Yeah. Everything living is

irreplaceable.

>> Xander: Well, what about

mosquitoes?

I dont think Id miss those.

>> Zoe: [ Chuckles ]

>> Xander: Its getting a little

warm in here, huh?

>> Zoe: Well, maybe you

should...

take something off.

>> Xander: Well, I-Id take my

hat off, but Im not wearing

one.

>> Zoe: Mm.

Oh. No, no, no, no.

A mosquito just flew down your

shirt.

We cant have that.

>> Xander: Well, you know best,

you know, being a-a doctors

daughter, so...

>> Zoe: Shh.

>> Xander: You know, uh...

I think I have a bite right

here.

>> Zoe: Oh, yeah?

>> Xander: Yeah.

♪♪

[ Door closes ]

>> Taylor: Everything okay?

>> Steffy: Yeah. Yeah.

I thought I heard a noise, but

theyre just dreaming.

What are you doing?

>> Taylor: So many wonderful

pictures!

[ Gasps ] Ohh.

>> Steffy: Yeah. They grow --

grow up so fast.

I dont want to miss anything.

>> Taylor: Neither do I.

Which is why -- and I dont mean

this the wrong way -- Im glad

you havent heard from Flo.

For whatever reasons, motherhood

was not what she wanted, so she

signed it away.

And she needs to move on with

her life, and we can move on

with ours.

>> Steffy: Yeah, I know. I know.

I just thought that Phoebe would

want to know her and...

she would want to know Phoebe.

Wow.

I have been with Phoebe longer

than Flo has.

I am a mom.

Im a mother to her in every way

that matters.

>> Taylor: And no one can take

that from you.

>> Flo: Im so sorry about all

of this.

>> Sally: All of what?

>> Flo: I should go.

>> Wyatt: No. Hey, come on.

We havent even started dinner

yet.

>> Hope: Yeah, and I cant stand

it if you feel like we put you

on the spot.

That was not our intention at

all.

>> Liam: Abs-- Absolutely.

Nobody wants that.

>> Hope: Yeah, and if you told

Wyatt that you dont have any

children, then you dont have

any children.

It is as simple as that.

And as someone has given birth

and who has been through a lot,

I understand that it can be

difficult to discuss, so...

>> Flo: But its true.

Phoe-- Phoebe isnt mine.

>> Wyatt: That was -- It was a

stupid question, all right?

I wasnt thinking.

Please just dont go.

>> Sally: Yeah. Look, were all

so used to being up in each

others business, were a little

rusty at respecting boundaries.

>> Liam: Im gonna go ahead and,

uh, freshen this up for you.

>> Hope: You know, do you want

to sit with me for a while?

>> Flo: Sure, sure. Yeah.

>> Hope: Okay.

>> Liam: Dude, you really had no

idea she was Phoebes birth mom?

>> Wyatt: None. How could I?

>> Liam: Well, I --

>> Sally: Okay, the woman is

more than a walking womb.

Can we all just remember that?

>> Hope: Liam wanted to be there

today when I told him that I met

you.

Its just that Phoebes such a

special little girl.

>> Flo: Yeah. Its just a little

hard for me to talk about right

now.

>> Hope: Oh. I mean, no

explanation necessary.

I-I completely understand.

>> Liam: Uh, there you go.

I, um...

[ Clears throat ] I-I imagine

Wyatt mentioned that Hope and I

are grieving the loss of our own

daughter.

>> Flo: He didnt.

>> Liam: Oh. Uh...

well, it was a stillbirth,

so it was kind of like my other

daughter lost a sister.

>> Flo: You -- You have another

child?

>> Hope: Uh, no. Liam does with

his ex-wife, Steffy.

>> Liam: Yeah. But, you know,

its kind of like she has a

sister back now.

You know, Phoebe sort of...

replaced our daughter.

>> Flo: I am -- I am so sorry

for your loss.

>> Liam: Theres nothing anybody

could have done.

Dont you worry about it.

>> Hope: Well, thats not

exactly true.

There was a windstorm that

night.

The power went out.

There was one doctor at the

clinic, and even though the

delivery seemed to be going

well...

I passed out right when I was

giving birth to Beth.

That was the name that we gave

her.

>> Liam: Hope, I dont -- I

dont think now is the time --

>> Hope: Well, no.

If I had been stronger, then

Beth might still be here today,

and...

Flo, Im so sorry.

I am so sorry.

You cant take me anywhere.

I didnt -- I didnt mean to

make you sad.

>> Flo: Its just I-I-I just --

I know what youre going

through.

[ Sniffles ]

>> Hope: Its okay.

>> Flo: I just -- I wish I had

known.

>> Hope: Known what?

We -- We just met you.

Theres nothing you could have

done.

Its okay.

>> Flo: Its the things you

dont do that you regret,

you know?

There are questions you dont

ask.

There are objections that you

dont raise.

Just p-please dont hate me.

>> Hope: Hate you?

I-I have nothing but respect for

you.

>> Liam: And -- And gratitude.

>> Flo: I dont deserve it.

>> Wyatt: Flo, nobody here is

judging you.

>> Hope: Are -- Are you trying

to tell us something?

Is that it?

>> Flo: Yeah.

Its, uh...

Its about Phoebe.
