At Bill’s place, Katie insists he has to take another paternity test. She knows Poppy is innocent until proven guilty, but if she’s capable of murder, she’s capable of faking a test. “You have to do another paternity test today!”
At the Forrester mansion, Donna gushes to Eric about Danny Romalotti being in their house. Eric tells her she’s squeezing his hand too hard. They canoodle. Across the room, Christine and Danny talk to Brooke and Ridge about the website dropping after the launch. Cricket admits she may have been one of the people responsible.
By the mantle, Finn credits Steffy for her speech about Brooke. Steffy prefers to think of it as supporting the company. Brooke walks over and thanks her for her kind words. “It’s nice to know you’re supporting my line and want it to be successful.” Steffy says, “Your success is my success.” Hope tipsily wends her way over and tells Steffy she’s glad to hear that. She’s sure her mother’s success will continue for years to come.
Pam and Donna chat with Danny and Christine about life on the road. Chris says it’s so much fun, though she’s not the one onstage doing the work. Danny crows about it being fun with her along. He offers Donna the VIP experience in Santa Barbara tomorrow night and she and Pam squeal. She snaps more photos, this time of the couple with Brooke.
Across the room, Finn tells Steffy he knows this is hard for her; all this adoration of Brooke. “I’m here for you.” They kiss and Hope watches from nearby. Brooke notices her daughter watching.
Danny and Christine pull Brooke away to talk about their new partnership. Christine hopes Lauren Fenmore’s boutique will be carrying the Brooke’s Bedroom line. Carter says they’ve placed a huge order already. Meanwhile, Hope joins Steffy and Finn to crow about Brooke getting her accolades that’s long overdue and to gush about her partnership with Danny. Steffy says as long as she’s pulling in revenue that’s all that really matters. Nearby, Christine asks if the rumors are true that Hope For the Future is struggling. Hope says her line has been in transition but has the company is fully committed to it. “Isn’t that right, Steffy?”
At Bill’s place, Katie warns he may not be Luna’s father. Luna appears, upset. She’s too sad to rest. “My mom is in jail, Dad. She’s in jail!” Bill holds her.
In the design office at Forrester, Will arrives to meet with Katie. She asks him to close the door and says it’s about his father.
At Bill’s place, he tells Luna he can’t imagine what she’s going through… she’s always had her mom. He assures her that if the unthinkable happens, he’ll be there for her. He will be by her side; she won’t be alone. “You will always have your father.”
In the design office, Katie tells Will that his father’s girlfriend Poppy has been arrested in connection with the suspicious deaths at Il Giardino. Will freaks out at the idea that his sister’s mother could be a murderer. Katie has been so concerned, but she’s been arrested, so his father’s not in danger and she’s no longer under his roof. Will thinks this is insane. Katie says it kind of makes you wonder what else she might be willing to do… like fake a paternity test. She’s urged his father to take another one.
At Bill’s place, he insists Luna stay there and reminds her that her building is being demolished. He’s there for her and this is her home. “You will always have your father.” They embrace.
At the Forrester mansion, Brooke tells Steffy she really does appreciate what she said earlier. It was very kind, especially since she senses her disappointment. They’re both on the same team and want what’s best for Forrester. Steffy says, “I agree. I do.” Brooke takes her hands. She wants to get along with her; no more Forrester vs. Logans. She insists she and Hope don’t want to cause her problems. Steffy thanks her and Brooke rejoins Ridge, who thanks her for talking to Steffy. Brooke says they’re family; they’ve got to work it out. She’s trying to convince her they don’t want to cause her any problems. Ridge and Brooke canoodle. When they hug, over his shoulder, Brooke sees Hope watching Finn again.
In the design office, Katie tells Will she thinks Bill will do another paternity test. Will marvels at her looking out for him. After all the pain he’s caused her, she still cares about him. Katie says, “Of course I still care about your father,” and hugs him.
At Bill’s place, he tells Luna he’s very impressed with the grace and dignity she’s showing. Luna says it’s a façade. Bill assures her they’ll get to the bottom of this. They embrace and Bill thinks about Katie’s warning to do another paternity test.
At the Forrester mansion, Ridge calls for everyone’s attention and thanks his dad and Donna for having the party. He’s grateful for the new partnership and asks Danny if he has anything to say. Danny says Christine convinced him to sing for his superfan, Donna, but he’ll dedicate it to everyone. He shouts, “Brooke’s Bedroom are you ready to rock on?!” With that, he launches into his hit song Rock On as the Forresters and Logans dance excitedly around him. Hope slugs back champagne, and Danny sings to an elated Donna.
When Steffy has to step out to take a call, Hope pulls Finn into the hallway and kisses him. He stops her quickly and stares at her in shock.
