At Bridget’s place, Brooke asked Rick to give up on his relationship with Phoebe for the sake of the family. Rick declared he has strong feelings for Phoebe. Brooke tried to compare Rick’s relationship with Amber to Rick and Phoebe, which infuriated Rick. Rick tried to turn the tables and suggested that maybe he should be asking her to give up on Ridge. Brooke expressed her concern that Rick, Phoebe and Ridge will repeat the same cycle as she’s been through for years with Ridge and Stephanie. Brooke asked Rick to think of Hope and RJ and the stable, peaceful home life that they need and deserve. Meanwhile, over at Brooke’s house, Ridge confronted Phoebe about Rick. Both of them declared they didn’t want to argue and get angry with each other. Phoebe said she was in love, while Ridge insisted that she’s too young to know what that means. The two argued over whether Phoebe is mature enough to know what she wants and handle it. Phoebe called Rick on his cell. Rick caved to his mother’s demands, and tried to tell Phoebe that things are too complicated now for them to continue. A distraught Phoebe hung up on Rick and recoiled from Ridge’s attempt to comfort her. Meanwhile, Rick politely asked his mother to leave: “You got what you wanted.”
Both Ridge and Brooke felt the sting for their kids’ rejection. Ridge insisted they’ll get over it, and reassured Brooke it’s best for everybody. Ridge checked on Phoebe but she wouldn’t answer her door. Brooke questioned the fragility of their relationship, realizing that their kids almost got between them. Rick answered the door to Phoebe, who gave her father the slip, to confront him about his decision. Phoebe admitted to Rick that she told Ridge she’s falling in love with him. Phoebe told Rick their relationship has nothing to do with their parents; it has to do with them. Phoebe told Rick how amazing their first kiss was. Phoebe leaned in for another kiss, but a conflicted and frustrated Rick pulled back. Rick expressed his worry about ruining his mother’s relationship with Ridge. Phoebe declared her love for Rick, who waited for him to respond in kind. All Rick could say was, “I’m sorry.” Phoebe ran outside and collapsed into a crying ball in the rain. Rick ran outside after her, took her by the hand, gently held her cheeks while he drew her into a long, passionate kiss as the rain poured down on them.
