At the Marone mansion, Taylor and Nick continue the romantic cuddling, and discuss they will leave their past relationships behind them the medal on the table that Brooke gave Nick being one of the symbols that they will move on. Later, the two discuss kids, Nick says that he always wanted to be a parent, but it might not be in the cards. Taylor states that he would be a great dad. She believes the right woman will come along for him sometime, but he seems skeptical. He tells Taylor she's a good mom to her kids. As they continue to talk, Taylor rubs Nick's back and shoulders and assures him he will find the right woman because he's a pretty good catch, and that if she had been in Brooke's shoes, then she stops. Nick waits for her to continue, but instead of finishing, Taylor kisses him.

At Brooke's place, Phoebe and her dad argue about a Rick/Phoebe relationship with Phoebe pointing out they are not related as she declares her love for Rick. She claims they will do whatever they want, and no one can stop them. Ridge says he can't let this happen, and calls Rick a "loser," someone who would take advantage of an 18-year-old girl. They continue to disagree as Brooke returns from seeing Rick off since Ridge sent him packing. She tells Ridge her son is not a loser. After Phoebe heads upstairs, Brooke says Rick will return to Europe and that will end the relationship with Phoebe, but Ridge worries Phoebe will follow him. He adds that the relationship they are both Forresters is inappropriate, and they must put a stop to it before the press gets a hold of it. It would destroy the family and the new Forrester Originals business. And, he claims Rick is all wrong for Phoebe.

At Bridget's, Rick knocks on the door and asks to stay for a few days while Bridget inquires what's up with him and Ridge. She correctly assumes he and Ridge are still arguing. Rick says his mom doesn't belong with Ridge, and wonders whatever happened with Brooke and Nick, and Bridget guiltily looks away, and tells Rick their mom loves Ridge. Suddenly, Brooke shows up to chat with Rick while Bridget goes to work at the hospital. Brooke tells Rick the relationship must stop. Phoebe calls Rick's cell phone to apologize for her dad, and Rick says not to worry, but he can't talk, and will call her later. Brooke continues, telling her son that he is driving a wedge into the family, and she won't allow that to happen. She wails that she and Ridge are so close to being together and raising RJ together. She orders Rick to stop the relationship with Phoebe for the sake of the family.
