At Big Bear, while Brooke struggles to keep Nick from hitting Ridge, Nick angrily declares that Ridge will not get away with it. He does not understand how Brooke could let Ridge get way with this. Brooke tells him again that it was not Ridge's fault, it was a mistake. Nick tells Brooke that Ridge told him she wanted it. Ridge denies this. Nick goes on telling Brooke how Ridge said she "loved sex and no one satisfied her like him." Brooke is appalled by what she is hearing; Brooke questions Ridge, who sheepishly admits to it. Brooke tells Nick that Ridge only spoke this way about her to get a rise out of Nick. Nick is angry that she is allowing Ridge once more to disrespect her and demands to know why she never holds Ridge accountable for any of his actions. Nick keeps hounding Brooke. Finally, Ridge tells her to put a leach on him, which causes Nick to lunge at Ridge. Brooke has to tear them apart. Brooke tells Ridge to go home, after he leaves, Brooke tells Nick the situation is not black and white. Nick disagrees, saying either Brooke wanted to sleep with Ridge, or she did not and asks a dumbstruck Brooke which it is. Brooke explains that Ridge thought that she was allowing it, but she was not. Nick says Ridge violated her and he wants her to press charges and get a restraining order. Brooke refuses. Nick asks her what is to keep him from attacking her again? Nick thinks she is refusing to press charges because she might secretly want Ridge back. Brooke says this is not true, she loves Nick. She says she does not want to press charges because she does not want the kids to find out about it. Brooke begs Nick to forget about this and just focus on their future. Nick refuses and demands that she press charges. Brooke says she cannot do that to RJ's father. Brooke tells Nick she loves him and begs him once more not to let this come between them.

At the Forresters', Stephanie fights her daughter's battle. As Felicia watches on, Stephanie explains to Dante and Bridget that they are contesting the guardianship because Felicia is alive and capable of taking care of her own child. Dante says he understands this and argues that they are not taking Dino away from Felicia; they are just taking him on vacation. Stephanie tells Dante it is time for he and Bridget to step aside and allow Felicia to be a mother to Dominick. Dante refuses to let Felicia have complete control of his son. Stephanie thinks he is being irrational. Dante finds it impossible to be rational after they had him arrested for kidnapping his own son. Bridget understands Felicia's fear of being apart from her son, and tells her they will cut the trip short. Stephanie says that is very generous, but does not change the fact that she has no right to take the baby anywhere. Felicia finally speaks up, telling her mother "that's enough." Felicia does not want her son to be constantly exposed to so much fighting and animosity. Felicia is exhausted and goes to bed telling everyone they can discuss things further tomorrow. After she has left, Bridget blames Stephanie for causing this situation. Stephanie stands strong; telling Bridget her guardianship will be revoked in a few days. Dante argues Stephanie cannot revoke his rights as a father. Belittling his parenting skills Stephanie jokes that "one drunken night doesn't make a father." Bridget is shocked when Stephanie offers them money if they will sign full custody over to Felicia. Bridget thinks Stephanie is being cruel. Stephanie understands Bridget's attachment but tells her she has to let go. Bridget says even if she does not have authority, Dante does because he is Dominick's biological father. Stephanie threatens to fire him if he does not sign full custody over to Felicia. Bridget says that will not deter him. However, Dante explains that he needs his job at Forrester in order to keep his work visa. Bridget cannot believe Stephanie would attempt to have Dante deported. Stephanie says she is not asking Dante to walk away from Dominick just to put Dominick's needs above his own. Bridget thinks it all comes down to Stephanie's need for control.

Meanwhile at Marone, in her son's office Jackie looks at a picture of Nick and Brooke and relishes the fact that they have found love, only wishing that she could find it too. Lost in this romantic reverie, she daydreams of Eric divorcing Stephanie and coming back to her. Sadly waking from the daydream, Jackie realizes Eric will never come back into her life. At this moment, Stephen Logan taps on the door, explaining he is looking for Nick. Jackie is surprised when she learns who he is. Stephen tells her wants to get on better terms with his future son-in-law. Jackie brags about how wonderful Nick is. They are charmed by each other. She tells him one way to win Nick over is to treat her nicely. They bond over a shared dislike for Stephanie and Massimo. Stephen says Ridge lured him back in to town by promising to help him repair his relationship with his daughter. He tells Jackie at first he wanted to help push Ridge and Brooke back together, but not anymore. Jackie remarks that Stephanie is not the only Forrester with a talent for manipulation. Stephen tells Jackie if her son is half as charming as she is, he does not see how Brooke can resist him. Jackie smiles flirtatiously

Brooke comments on the fact that Massimo has been banned from the company. Brooke isn't quite sure how to take that. She tells Nick that she is on the way over to Forresters. "To pick up your things, I hope," says Nick. Brooke starts to say no, but Nick tells her that she can't possibly think about going back to work there, with Ridge there. You can't work next to him. Nick tells Brooke, that if they are going to have to deal with this, then you have to make up your mind. Brooke arrives at Forrester's and starts to pack up her things.
