At the hospital, Ridge is still having flashbacks from the lady in pink. He keeps saying over and over that he saw Taylor. Brooke tries to make him relax and stop talking about Taylor, but Ridge keeps saying that he needs to get to Taylor. Thomas is upset by his father's ramblings. Eric tries to comfort Thomas by saying that Ridge probably has another concussion, but he'll soon be back to his old self. Eric and Thomas step out in the hall. As a nurse checks Ridge, Stephanie tells Brooke that someone could be making Ridge think he saw Taylor. Dr. Mark comes back in with the test results and says that he can't find anything wrong with Ridge. Brooke wants to know why Ridge is hallucinating. Ridge tells them that he is not hallucinating, but that Taylor was there and she needs him. Stephanie reminds Ridge that Dr. Mark was there when Taylor died. Dr. Mark corrects Stephanie and says that actually, Taylor had disconnected herself from the monitors, so he didn't know her exact moment of death. Stephanie then tells Dr. Mark that he signed the death certificate, but again Dr. Mark corrects her and says that he was called away that night when the ER got busy. Stephanie tells Ridge that SOMEONE signed the death certificate. She reminds him that they all went to the funeral. Brooke pleads with Ridge to stop talking about Ridge because it will hurt the children. Ridge is angered and says that he would recognize his own wife. Brooke is hurt by his words and goes out in the hall while Stephanie talks to Ridge some more. She tells him that they all want Taylor back, but that's just not possible because she is dead. Ridge listens to what Stephanie has to say, but in the end, tells her that he will find Taylor because she needs him.

In the hall, Gaby and Thomas talk about Ridge. Gaby tells him that sometimes people want to believe something so much that it becomes real to them. The two talk about their dead mothers. Thomas takes Gaby home and then remembers a time when Taylor talked about always watching him from heaven if she were ever an angel.

At Ridge and Brooke's house, Bridget and Nick kiss and talk about what's been happening. Phoebe and Steffy come into the room, worried about their dad. Bridget assures then that all will be fine and is sure that someone will call from the hospital soon with good news. The phone rings and it is Eric. He tells Bridget that all of Ridge's tests came back fine. Bridget tells the girls that their dad is okay. The girls, happy and satisfied, leave the room. Bridget finishes up her conversation with Eric and finds out about Ridge thinking he saw Taylor. After she hangs up, she tells Nick what Ridge is saying. Nick tells her that they did hear a woman scream at the wedding. He assures her that they'll get all of this cleared up and be able to continue the wedding very soon.
