In Brooke's office, a drunken Macy begs Thorne to tell Brooke that he is off limits to her. Thorne tries to explain to Macy that she can't blame Brooke for her problems, but Macy states that she pushed her into drinking and that she might as well have poured the liquor directly down her throat. Thorne tells her that she can't put her sobriety in someone else's hand. Macy begs him to tell Brooke that there was no future for the two of them, but Brooke says that he can't tell her that because it wouldn't be true. Macy tells her that she is wrong. She tells her that Thorne wouldn't give up what they had for some cheap slut. Thorne takes Macy by the arm and tells her that she had said enough, but Macy is not finished by a long shot. She tells Brooke that Thorne left her in Italy and married her. She said that Thorne had seen the real Brooke in that hotel room, and knew that she would destroy him just as she had done with his brother and father. She said that she refused to believe that her husband was a fool because he would have to be to give up his dignity, his family, and the woman that he loved. She told Brooke that she had better stay away from Thorne or she would pay. Thorne escorts Macy from the office and turns and whispers to Brooke that he would call her.

Becky's parents demand to know what Amber is hiding from them. C.J. offers to tell them, but Amber decides to tell them herself. She tells them about the Cancer and that Becky doesn't have long to live. They are very upset and crying and can't believe that Amber waited so long to tell them. They don't understand why Amber hasn't told Becky, but she explains that Becky was so happy being with C.J. that she couldn't ruin that. They question C.J., but he explains that he only recently found out about her illness. He said that he loved Becky and wanted to marry her, but Becky's mother explains that there will be no wedding. She said that her daughter was dying and they were trying to throw a party. C.J. said that he just wanted to give her one perfect day and then he would tell her the truth. He said that he wanted her to have something to look back on and begged them not to take that away from her. He explains that it is really what Becky wants. They said that they understood that his heart was in the right place, but it was still a lie. He tells them that he would have proposed to her eventually, but not that soon, but he wanted to make her happy for as long as she lived. Amber explains to them that the wedding was all that Becky talked about. They said that they didn't know if they could look Becky in the eye and pretend that everything was okay. They decide that they are going to take Becky back home with them. They are headed into the bedroom to pack up her things when the phone rings. It's Becky , who is calling from Forrester, where her gown is being altered. She is very upbeat on the machine and said that she was born to be a bride. The parents decide to go along with the marriage plans..

Macy and Thorne arrive home, and he is stunned that Macy took a drink after being sober for 6 years. Macy explains that she slipped, but since the Brooke mess is over, she could get back on track. Thorne tells her that he is going to call her counselor to see if he can help them, and he tells her to go and take a nap. He immediately calls Brooke after Macy falls asleep. He tells her that everything is worse than before. He said that he was waiting on a call from her counselor, and that he was not about to let this situation just drag on. He also tells Brooke that Macy was there for some of the worst times in his life, so he had to be there for her. Brooke tells him that she is there if he needed her. He tells Brooke that he loves her and she says the same.Thorne hangs up the phone and just stares at Macy as she lies in bed.

Thorne calls Brooke from home. Brooke wants to know if he has made any progress with Macy, did he tell her? Thorne says after he helps Macy get a handle on her drinking, he will tell her and that will be happening real soon. Brooke tells Thorne that she believes him. Thorne promises that this time they will be together; he is going to leave Macy. Brooke ask Thorne when will she see him. Thorne isn't quite sure but it will be soon and he loves her.

In the kitchen, Macy is bragging to Kimberly that her and Thorne are closer than ever. Macy says that she and Thorne both confronted Brooke for her to back off. Kimberly wants to know if Thorne TOLD Brooke to really back off. Macy positively states that he stood right there and backed her. Macy explains that the only way to fight Brooke is to confront her right out. "He took the whole day off to be with me," Macy states. She gives a possible thanks to Brooke for bringing them closer together. Kimberly ask Macy shouldn't Thorne be the one to handle Brooke and not her? Macy says that he is and that Thorne is too smart to give into Brooke and to tear the family apart. Besides, she can't sit back and watch her destroy him the ways she has done every other man in her life.

Insomnia, Clarke and Morgan are having coffee. Morgan tells Clarke about how she asked Taylor if Ridge could be the donor for her child. Clarke begins to laugh and tells her that she is not serious. Clarke questions if this is all that she wants from Ridge. Morgan tells Clarke that she is not out to destroy their marriage she just wants to have a child by a man that she respects and admires. Clarke tells her that there is no way in hell that this is going to happen, so she needs to think of a backup plan. Clarke offers to be the donor and Morgan thanks him but the position has already been filled.

At Ridge and Taylor's, Taylor is discussing with Ridge how Morgan has changed her mind about the insemination. Taylor continues to tell him that Morgan wanted to know if Ridge would do it. Ridge is shocked that Morgan would ask her do such a thing. He is more amazed that Taylor is considering it. Taylor admits that she has some reservations, but she understands why Morgan wants Ridge to be the father of her child. Morgan sees this as a redemption for losing the first child. Taylor wants to know that if she wasn't around would he consider it, Ridge says, "Maybe." Taylor is shocked that he would consider it, "What about the fact that there is a boy or girl out there somewhere without you...I know how you are with our children..I just can't see you doing that." Ridge says that Morgan doesn't believe that they will consider it. "Yes, she does," Taylor says.

Back at Macy's, Kimberly is still worried about Macy. Macy insist that the worst is over and she knows what she has to do and she knows that she has made a terrible mistake. Macy stresses that she and Thorne are closer than ever, "No, we're not," Thorne says. He enters into the room and tells Macy that she has to start taking her drinking seriously. Macy knows that she has lost his trust after taking so long to get it back. Thorne says he has to leave. Kimberly says that she will stay with Macy until the sponsor arrives. Thorne says he will be back for that and walks out the door.

Morgan arrives at Ridge and Taylor's. Taylor tells her that she has spoken to Ridge, but she is not sure if he is ready for this. Ridge comes in and Morgan explains that they can make this work. She hopes they will still consider her request. Ridge and Taylor are both silent.

Brooke is in her office working with two employees and sees Thorne standing at the door. She dismisses the meeting and Thorne runs into Brookes arms and holds her. He tells Macy that she comes first in his life. "Is this really happening?" she asks Thorne. Soon, he will be all hers, forever. They kiss passionately.

Sally tells Thorne that she will "take care of it" and suggests he go look after Macy. Macy and John (her sponsor) are talking. Macy tells John she tried to fight it but she wasn't strong enough.

Morgan says she doesn't want to sleep with Ridge, she just wants a child. Morgan leaves them alone to talk. Taylor understands why having "Ridge's child" would remove the emptiness in Morgan's life.

Amber says C.J. will tell her after the wedding. Amber admits what she is doing is terrible. She feels it is even worse than not telling Rick about Eric. She says it is worse than that but she has to do it for Becky. Since Becky won't see her 21st birthday or her 1st wedding anniversary. But when she walks down that aisle, she will see all her family, friends, and all the people who love her. She wants her to have "one incredible moment, so her life will be perfect."
