Stephanie explained to a skeptical Ridge why she wanted him on board with her...with a side trip into Brooke bashing. Ridge wasn't happy to hear that Stephanie was partnered up with Bill to drive down the company's value and wondered what has happened to her. She listed all of Eric's transgressions against her. In the middle of all this, Taylor arrived (because Stephanie called her, in a matchmaking fit!) and Stephanie wrapped up her pitch to Ridge. She dropped by Forrester, where she and Rick clashed. That's when Brooke called to tell Rick she was doing a webcast on Eye on Fashion's site. Steph and Rick watched it together. Steph marveled at how Brooke dubbed Forrester a "Logan company." Taylor, meanwhile, wondered how much longer Ridge would keep his invalid marriage from Brooke and talked about how complicated that relationship was. "I can see you're going through Hell," she insisted. "Stop pretending." She noted "things would be a lot better if you were back to me." Ridge stared at her, processing that observation.

At Spencer publishing, Jarrett felt bad about unleashing on the Forresters, his old pals, but when Bill suggested a job downsizing, he quickly fell in line. Brooke and Rick boggled at Stephanie's latest video blog, which trashed Brooke. Rick didn't agree with Ridge's "just ignore her" policy and wanted to fight fire with fire. Brooke urged him to chill out. She'd go see Bill herself! Naturally, the one-liners and accusations flew fast and furious. Bill wondered what kind of underwear Brooke is wearing...saying it would prove if Stephanie was right about her. Brooke wasn't havin' it and the snark continued. Brooke noted that Steph "spewing" things would no doubt backfire on Bill. Feeling "magnanimous," Bill offered Brooke the spot for his upcoming webcast with Jarrett so she could share her side. Brooke talked about how Steph's favorite, Taylor, being married to Ridge wouldn't impact Forrester and then listed her and her family's contributions to the company. "Under our leadership, Forrester Creations will rise to greater heights than ever before," she insisted.
