After rolling off a crying and beaten Brooke, rapist Andy told her, "You were incredible, and you know I was, too." She crawled away and tried to cover herself while he straightened up the mess they'd made fighting. He toasted the "greatest sex of our lives," and liked it even better when she called it rape. "We're just getting started, honey," he said and challenged her to call 911 on the night before her custody hearing, swearing he'd play it off as rough sex. "You set me up," she guffawed and he called it the "opportunity of a lifetime." There was a knock on the door and it was child services. He pushed her to answer it and play it cool. Dorothy could tell Brooke was "in distress." Brooke tried to blow it off, asking for a ride to Bridget's, but Dorothy pushed. She said she wanted to see Brooke's kids back with her, "but it cannot happen if there is another problem in this house." That fed right into Andy's threats, so Brooke got rid of her. Then she grabbed her keys and tried to run, but Andy stopped her. When she brandished a letter opener at him, it only made the sicko hotter. He came at her, so she stabbed him and chased him out of her house. Then she turned on the alarm and barricaded herself in. In panicked shock, she went to wash the letter opener, but was too shaky and dropped it. She tore her clothes off and jumped into the shower, scrubbing herself ruthlessly. There was a noise outside, like a knock on the door, but she was in a state, desperate to get clean. She collapsed into the wall and held herself.

Nick paced around Taylor, who gave him the okay to check on Brooke. He admitted he was feeling worried and would go, but as he was leaving, she muttered that a husband going to check on Brooke was like déjà vu. Then she backpedaled and admitted she felt guilty for her part if Brooke's custody drama. She empathized with Brooke, having had a nightmare where the egg donor wanted to take their child away.

After Stephanie called Dorothy, who refused to give her an update on Brooke's custody case, Eric reprimanded his wife for trying to make this her battle, especially when "nobody else wants to fight." She told a false story about standing up for RJ and Hope the way no one stood up for her as a child. "She neglects them, emotionally," she insisted and the two went in circles. Eric said Brooke would never let a violent man near her kids. (Little did he know Stephanie had just sicked a dangerous man on Brooke!) They were interrupted by Dorothy, who asked if Brooke was a drinker, but also told Stephanie to get over herself. Stephanie suggested she check on Brooke again in the morning.
