Taylor informed Nick that she's doing a lot better. She wanted to discuss their problems and explained that her problems began when she learned that Brooke is the biological mother of her baby. Still, Taylor insisted that she's Jack's mother. Nick doubted that she could properly care for the baby; Taylor blamed Brooke for her troubles and insisted on being there for her son. Nick wanted Taylor to take some time to think things through. She kissed him and said that she couldn't survive a marriage when she didn't have her husband's support. Later, Taylor absently played with one of the baby's toys and was interrupted by Rick.

In the Forrester estate, the detectives questioned Stephanie about the shooting. She blamed herself for getting shot and wouldn't name an assailant. She then requested that the police put an end to the investigation. Brooke and the Logans were shocked. Steph announced to Storm that he's free and she forgives him. Katie and Brooke thanked her, while Eric looked on admirably. Later, Brooke, Donna, Katie and Storm wondered why Stephanie did what she did. Donna insisted that Eric is committed to her. Brooke warned her not to count Stephanie out. Katie suggested that Donna let Eric come to her and not chase after him.
