Eric, Brooke and Ridge brought Stephanie home from the hospital. Stephanie was not interested in an easy convalescence. She was raring to get on with her life...and her mission! She outlined her directive, pointing out that the homeless were fighting every day to survive and many were "worse off than I am." Eric told her they'd talk when he got home and urged her to get some rest. Once alone, Stephanie called Dayzee to find out where she is and told her to stay put so they could meet up. Then, Stephanie told a moved Brooke that "as long as there's no major screw up...I will admit that you are a member of my family." Stephanie praised her as being wonderful and someone who is like "a daughter who gives me a lot of gray hairs." Ridge looked on as his mom and his wife had a lovefest. Later, Ridge and Brooke hugged and Ridge got a text from Stephanie. She'd given them the slip and gone down to see Dayzee. Downtown, Stephanie met Dayzee at a homeless shelter, assuring her she's 100% committed to helping.

At Jackie M, Whip, Nick and Aggie admired the sexy, sensual lines of Amber's new design...not realizing it was a Forrester one! They hoped the rest of the line would be as impressive. Nearby, Amber got a call from Oliver, who apologized for dragging her into his drama the night before. She assured him it was no big thing — she'd gotten "plenty" out of the encounter. She offered to help him move on from Hope and "be more than a good friend." Hungover Oliver hung up and stared at the Hope For the Future drawings. Then, Hope came in, remarking upon the shape Oliver was in. "This isn't good for you," she observed, of him being holed up staring at pictures of her. "It's my job," he shrugged. "Maybe it shouldn't be," she countered, suggesting he take a leave of absence. Oliver refused to "bail" on her. Back at Jackie M, Taylor came by to see Whip. Taylor told a stunned Whip about Stephanie's operation and cancer diagnosis. Nick, too, reeled from the news. Taylor admitted she's worried about Stephanie having the strength to get through treatment. A bubbly Amber burst in, and Nick filled her in. Amber admitted her relationship with Stephanie is "complicated," and struggled to marshal her emotions. Then, Nick told her the new designs were "hot." Amber took this as yet another sign he approves of her shenanigans. Impressed, Nick told her he wants the fashion show to be next week. "You are going to steal the show!" he grinned, as she laughed. Back at Forrester, Eric told Hope how excited he is about the Hope For the Future line. They admired one of his drawings and Eric called it "one of a kind."
