Stephanie and Donna cornered Eric to find out which woman he wants to be with. Eric announced that he's not ready to make a choice because he has too much to deal with right now, citing Rick's accident. The ladies launched into vows about how they will stand by his side. Eric said that they didn't need to plead their cases, he proposed that the three of them all live together at the mansion for a while.

At Forrester, Brooke confronted Ridge about spending the night at Taylor's place. Taylor, was all too happy to pile on, mentioning that Brooke is the one who asked Ridge to move out for a while. Ridge told Brooke that he thinks Rick is milking his "paralysis" to drive a wedge between them. While Taylor sat on a sofa, dramatically reading a magazine, Brooke laid some sweet talk on Ridge and cooed about how much she missed him. She asked him to come by her house, smooched him and exited — but not before informing Taylor that there won't be any more sleepovers.

Brooke visited Rick's bedside and mentioned that Ridge stayed over at Taylor's, quickly adding that it was only so that the exes could spend family time with their children. Rick predicted that Ridge will continue to dangle the women. Brooke proclaimed her love for Ridge, but Rick was certain his mother is facing heartache. Rick begged her to reconsider, pointing out all the flaws in her relationship with Ridge. A tear ran down Brooke's face as her son entreated: "End it now. For me. But most importantly, for you."

When Eric went to the office to look for something, Donna was at the mansion, stripping down to sexy lingerie. She climbed into bed, expecting to see her Honey Bear, but it was Stephanie! While Eric was at Forrester explaining the situation to Ridge, the son grumbled and growled about how he had hoped to be rid of Donna. Back at the mansion, Stephanie mocked Donna's sexy attire, asking if she always wears such getups underneath her clothes. Both women were determined to reclaim Eric.
