Deacon Sharpe’s Therapy

At therapy, Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) asks about Thanksgiving. It was good and he actually had a nice meal with Sheila. Deacon says his wife credits Taylor for saving her marriage.

Taylor looks uncomfortable. Deacon wants his kids to accept Sheila. The topic turns to Hope Logan’s (Annika Noelle) wedding.

Deacon explains that acceptance and family mean everything to Sheila, much more than anyone realizes. So, if she doesn’t get invited to the wedding, Sheila would be devastated. 

Donna Logan Forrester’s Plea

In the showroom, Donna talks about Ridge’s designs. She says Ridge did learn from the best. Donna needs Brooke to get Ridge to accept Eric’ Forrester’s (John McCook) offer.

Brooke wants to know if Eric is okay. Donna says he is, but he just wants to work and continue doing something he loves. While she wants to spend time with her husband, it wouldn’t be fair to tear him away from something he loves.

Brooke tells Donna that the decision is between Eric and Ridge.
