Nick found a depressed Taylor staring into an empty cradle. "I can't feel a connection to the baby and I'm getting scared," she sobbed. Nick tried to comfort his wife, but she went into the shower. Later, she was surprised when Nick showed up with Jack in his arms. "Do you want to hold him?" Nick asked and passed the baby to a reticent Taylor, who soon became enthralled with her son.

Brooke told Eric that she and Ridge reunited after he broke up with Ashley. Brooke added that Ashley is a huge asset to the company, saying she will try very hard to get along with her. Brooke let on that she knows about Eric and Donna's relationship and asked if it was for real. "I'm completely charmed by your sister," praised Eric. Donna showed up and she gushed that she was "hopelessly in love" with Eric. Brooke remained skeptical and when Eric was called out of the office, Donna said that he needed to file for divorce as soon as possible. When Brooke cautioned to slow down, Donna was surprised by her sister's laid-back attitude toward Stephanie. "We got her against the ropes," Donna declared to an alarmed Brooke. "Let's knock her out." (Yikes. I guess we're through with Nick's nautical metaphors.)

Although she wasn't allowed on the premises of Forrester Creations, Stephanie sneaked in to visit Felicia. Steph blamed herself for her marriage woes but Felicia reminded that Eric has made his share of mistakes. Stephanie then found Donna alone in Eric's office so Ms. Logan called security. Steph made a snarky comment and Donna sneered that La Forrester was looking down at her just because she's a Logan. "There are so many good reasons to look down on you," chuckled Stephanie and shuffled out. A furious Donna then called Nick and asked him to meet her right away. When they got together, Donna told Nick, "The person responsible for Brooke's rape was Stephanie." Meanwhile, Brooke was upset to find Stephanie at Forrester Creations.
