A dirty and disheveled Brooke interrupted Taylor and Ridge's wedding, much to everyone's shock. Brooke refused to leave until Steffy admitted what she'd done. "Why are you all muddy and what's with the horse?" Ridge boggled. Brooke quickly explained. "What?!" Ridge gasped. He and Taylor looked at Steffy, agog. Thomas and Steffy 'fessed up that they'd "intervened." Steffy apologized but claimed she hadn't wanted to lose her family. She begged Ridge to finish the wedding. Ridge asked for a moment alone with Taylor and Brooke. Taylor understood where Steffy had come from from and insisted that even if Ridge had gotten Brooke's text messages, he would've remained committed to her. Brooke asked Ridge if that was true. Outside, the family paced and waited. Marcus hugged Steffy, while Eric and Steph argued Team Brooke vs. Team Taylor. Eric noted they had to let Ridge make his own decision. Inside, Ridge asked Brooke to say her piece, reiterating their conflict with Rick. "I acted in haste!" she said of letting him go. "We can get through this. It's not too late to do that!" Taylor looked at her like she'd lost her mind. On the porch, Thomas (and his atrocious blue pastel sport coat/pink tie combo) conferred with Steffy while Stephanie wondered if Donna had known what Brooke was up to. Donna echoed Eric's sentiment that this was Ridge's choice, adding she believed he'd choose her sister. Back inside, the debate raged on. Taylor told Ridge it wasn't a mistake to marry her and Brooke made her pitch again. She didn't want Ridge to make a rash decision like she had. She spoke movingly, insisting that this time she'd live with whatever he decided.

Whip called Jackie, revealing he's now her upstairs' neighbor. Bewildered, but game, she ran up to visit — and have some wine and sushi. She called him on knowing that Owen was out surfing with friends. He asked her how she and Owen had met. She tried to change the subject but ended up admitting, "It was crazy, but it felt right." Whip wondered if she loves Owen. She said that Owen is the best thing that ever happened to her and makes her feel like both a "grand dame" and a "beach girl." Whip jumped up to get that idea down for a campaign and Jackie was impressed by his passion.
