While Katie fretted about Bridget's possible reaction to Nick's confession, he was preparing to come clean. "Tell me what happened between you and Katie," a concerned Bridget urged her husband, who explained how Katie had given up on life on Catalina Island. He admitted that he got "caught up in the moment" and Bridget started to get the picture. "Did you sleep with her?" Bridget demanded and Nick said 'yes.' Bridget went — understandably — ballistic as she blasted him for his betrayal. "I can't believe I've been so naive!" she ranted. "How you could you do this to us? ... You should've kept your pants on!" She demanded to know why he was confessing now and he announced "She's pregnant." Yep, close-up on Bridget's shocked expression.

In Eric's hospital room, Ridge was thrilled to hear that his dad had momentarily awakened. Stephanie suggested that they bring Eric home so he could recover in familiar surroundings. Ridge pointed out that they needed to consult Donna but Steph revealed that she saw Donna in bed with Owen and wanted "that bitch" far away from Eric.

Despite his luscious kisses, Donna broke away from Owen and said, "I can't." He asked if she was sure and she reiterated her decision and that Eric "is the love of my life." They were interrupted by her cell phone ringing: It was Ridge asking her to come to the hospital right away. Donna rushed there, where Ridge reminded her that the spring fashion lines were debuting in Paris and that she needed to be there. Donna was reluctant to leave, but Ridge convinced her that as CEO, she needed to attend. He also suggested that she bring Owen and Donna agreed, then headed out. Stephanie appeared and told Ridge that she made arrangements to have Eric transported home that night. Ridge was worried when his mother said she would forge Donna's signature on the release papers.
