Bold and the Beautiful - 2009 (S22 E179) FULL EPISODE 5580

0:01 Tell them, Brooke.

0:02 Tell them that you absolutely forbid this relationship.

0:05 I need to hear you say those words.

0:07 Tell your son that he's FINISHED WITH MY DAUGHTER.

0:22 I can't do it, Ridge.

0:25 I can't stand in the way of Rick and Steffy's relationship any longer.

0:31 I'm sorry.

0:34 I'm sorry, but I just can't do it.

0:57 Phoebe's favorite roses.

1:00 Your father must have left those.

1:01 He comes here all the time.

1:04 I just wish he would come back to our family.

1:08 So do I, Thomas.

1:10 But he's with Brooke.

1:13 How can he stay with her?

1:15 Knowing that her son is responsible for this.

1:21 I just don't get how Dad deals with Rick.

1:25 Phoebe would still be here if it weren't for him.

1:28 But Dad has to deal with him day in and day out.

1:32 It's going to cause him a lifetime of hell.

1:35 You're agreeing to this?

1:36 Knowing how I feel?

1:38 Yes.

1:40 And I understand why you feel the way you do.

1:44 But Ridge, they have repeatedly tried

1:45 to respect [music] your wishes to stay apart.

1:48 And they can't.

1:50 Because their feelings for each other are just too strong.

1:53 Now, they've made their intentions very clear.

1:56 They are determined to be together.

1:58 So, I'm supposed to just drop it and move on.

2:00 Is that what you're telling me?

2:01 Ridge, they're adults.

2:02 They're going to do what they want to do regardless of if we approve or not.

2:07 Really, I think they can make each other very, very happy.

2:12 I'm sorry if you don't understand where I'm coming from.

2:16 I just can't stand in the way of this any longer.

2:27 Dad.

2:30 I know this is hard for you.

2:33 But can't you just try to accept us?

2:35 Brooke is willing to.

2:38 How can you even ask that of me, Steffy?

2:40 Please, Ridge.

2:42 Let's just give them a chance.

2:44 I told you this couldn't happen.

2:48 After everything he's done, you should be supporting me.

2:54 I can't even believe this, Brooke.

3:11 [music] Go.

3:25 Somewhere, anywhere.

3:26 Just I can't stand to look at this.

3:29 Go.

3:46 Ridge.

3:47 No.

3:50 I knew Rick wouldn't stay away from Steffy.

3:55 I would have been so stupid to think that he

3:57 would give her or me one moment of peace,

4:00 but I never I never thought that you would betray me.

4:05 I'm not betraying you.

4:08 He is a threat to my remaining [music] daughter,

4:10 and you're condoning their relationship, Brooke.

4:13 is not a threat to Steffy.

4:15 Oh, come on, Brooke.

4:16 How can you possibly believe that?

4:19 You're so unwilling to see your son for who he really is.

4:23 I can't take this anymore.

4:24 I've had it.

4:27 God.

4:29 You knew that Rick was the only thing that could break us up, and now he has.

4:34 Ridge, please don't say that.

4:37 We can get through this.

4:39 We have been through so much lately, and we have managed to stay together.

4:43 We're not together, Brooke.

4:45 We should be, but we're not.

4:48 You're on your side with your son, and I'm on my side alone.

4:52 I can't take this anymore.

4:53 I'm done.

4:53 I've had it.

4:54 Ridge, don't say that.

4:56 I love you.

4:59 I love you, and I will always love you.

5:02 But I will not tolerate this.

5:05 I can't.

5:08 Your son is a threat to my daughter, and I will not tolerate it anymore.

5:14 And he's a threat to me.

5:17 He's a threat to my sanity, Brooke.

5:21 But you just don't seem to give a damn about that at all.

5:26 I'm done.

5:28 DONE.

5:28 THAT'S IT.

5:30 RIDGE, WAIT.

5:31 COME BACK HERE.

5:33 RIDGE!

5:47 Come back, Stephanie.

5:51 Please.

5:53 I'll give you an office.

5:56 You're missed here.

5:58 You miss me like a toothache.

6:00 What you miss are the sales and the distributors

6:03 and my relationships with the clients and the contractors.

6:07 And that's all gone because you fired me, remember?

6:14 That may have been a mistake.

6:17 You bet it was.

6:18 I'd like to rectify it.

6:19 And how?

6:24 By bringing me back here to work with Rick and Donna and Brooke?

6:31 Why would I do that?

6:47 Ridge.

6:49 Something happened?

6:50 Are you okay?

6:54 I didn't know where to go.

6:55 I um just knew I couldn't stay there, not with him there.

7:00 Who?

7:01 Rick.

7:02 Don't tell me He's gone after Steffy again.

7:05 No.

7:06 No.

7:06 [sighs] I had to get out of there.

7:09 I had to leave.

7:10 I I got I didn't know what the hell I would do, what I would say.

7:16 To Rick?

7:17 To Brooke.

7:20 She's supporting Rick and Steffy.

7:24 How could she do this?

7:31 She knows how much I need her support.

7:33 She just doesn't give a damn.

7:37 It's over, Taylor.

7:38 I'm I'm done.

7:41 I'm done.

7:44 I've left Brooke.

7:58 Ridge.

8:01 It's going to be okay.

8:02 We're going to get through this.

8:07 What are we going to do about Steffy?

8:10 We're going to keep Rick away from her.

8:12 I don't want him anywhere near her.

8:16 God, thank God someone finally agrees with me.

8:21 Brooke just doesn't get it.

8:25 I already lost one daughter to her son.

8:28 Now he's going after Steffy again.

8:32 After everything he's done to you, to Phoebe.

8:37 I can't take it anymore, Doc.

8:39 I just can't take it.

8:54 Phoebe.

8:57 My sweet little girl.

9:02 He took you away from us.

9:06 I want you back.

9:12 If there was only some way to have you back.

9:22 Rick is going after Steffy again.

9:26 God, if the same thing happens to Steffy.

9:31 Please, Ridge, stop.

9:35 Listen to what I say.

9:36 That is not going to happen.

9:39 Ridge, we are going to protect her.

9:41 She is going to be fine.

9:44 She's going to date him.

9:48 I can't stop her.

9:50 If I try, they're just going to do it behind my back.

9:57 She's going to be in a with him somewhere.

9:59 Something's going Brooke isn't stopping it, Taylor.

10:07 She's not doing a damn thing to stop it.

10:34 Hey, here.

10:36 Take one of these.

10:37 It's a prescription that Dr.

10:38 Kiefer gave me after we lost Phoebe.

10:41 It's for anxiety.

10:44 It will just take it take the edge off.

10:57 Ridge, I don't want you to be alone.

10:59 Let me take you back to the house.

11:01 No.

11:03 Doc, I don't want to see anyone.

11:04 I don't want to see Rick.

11:05 I don't want to see Brooke.

11:07 No one.

11:09 Well, then I'll take you away.

11:12 I really think you just need a little time so you can level out.

11:20 Ridge, everything is going to be okay.

11:28 I'm here for you.

11:30 I'm going to help you.

11:36 You belong at this company, Stephanie.

11:39 No, not anymore.

11:41 You created at least 50% of it.

11:45 Thank you.

11:49 You made your choice.

11:49 You picked your young trophy wife and it has consequences.

11:55 Donna brings a great deal of joy to my life.

12:00 I miss my family, though.

12:03 [laughter] You always wanted to have your cake and eat it, too.

12:07 What does is What is this sudden nostalgia all about?

12:11 The sex getting old?

12:15 Honey, you walked out of our marriage and you threw me out of the company, okay?

12:19 And you put this company and me through one hell of a bad time recently.

12:23 You know that.

12:24 Yes, I did, but I came through for you when Spencer wanted to take control

12:28 and I went out on a limb big-time to keep you from going to jail.

12:32 So, let's just say we're even.

12:36 I disagree.

12:38 I think I still owe you.

12:43 There's still a place for you here at Forrester, you know.

12:46 Why would I do that to myself?

12:48 Come here and work side by side

12:51 with Donna and and watch her outrageous behavior?

12:54 Oh, Eric.

12:55 And in her defense, it's not just her.

12:59 You have to own part of that.

13:02 Eric, I think that you have to I think you have to step back a bit,

13:07 honey, and and look at this through other people's eyes.

13:12 Think about how this affects our children, the employees.

13:17 You know, when they hear all this moaning, groaning, grunting,

13:19 all of that coming out of the office, it's it makes them uncomfortable.

13:25 And for me to be here, that would just be intolerable.

13:31 Come on, we had something extraordinary once.

13:35 You chose to walk away from it, fine.

13:38 But, a cautionary moment here.

13:43 Your behavior has an effect on the company and on your reputation.

13:50 I don't want to be a part of that.

13:54 I deserve better.

13:55 And you know what?

13:56 I found something better.

13:57 I have.

13:58 You know, I've got a new life, a new company.

14:00 I no longer have a place here at Forrester.

14:03 I don't want to be here.

14:06 Oh, honey.

14:08 Donna, give us a give us another moment, will you?

14:11 No.

14:13 Come on in, honey.

14:20 We're finished.

14:49 Just want to be away from all of it.

14:54 I don't want to feel like this anymore.

15:00 Where are we going?

15:01 Big Bear.

15:03 Oh, Doc, no.

15:04 Look, nobody will know where you are.

15:07 Nobody will be able to find you.

15:09 It'll just be you and me.

15:11 Okay?

15:13 I'm going to deal with this, Ridge.

15:17 I'm going to take care of you, okay?

15:21 Don't worry.

15:46 Hey.

15:48 Uh, you need anything?

15:49 Want me to make you anything?

15:53 Has the pill started to work yet?

15:56 My mind's still racing.

15:59 Thinking about Steffy and what could happen to her.

16:05 I'm scared, Doc.

16:08 Am I overreacting?

16:09 No, you you definitely are not.

16:13 Ridge, how many times have we made it clear

16:15 to everyone that we do not want this relationship to happen?

16:19 Rick, I would expect to try to break the rules

16:21 because he's proven over and over that he can't be trusted.

16:25 But, none of this would even be happening if if

16:27 Brooke had just put her foot down in the first place.

16:30 I I can't believe she's even condoning this relationship.

16:33 It is absolutely unacceptable.

16:36 I have told her how I feel.

16:39 She knows how against it I am and she just still goes ahead and supports it.

16:45 Well, where is her compassion and and her empathy for you?

16:50 It's like she can't even put herself in your position

16:54 to to understand what kind of pain you've been going through.

16:59 I mean, you just lost your daughter.

17:03 I really think that you haven't even been able to get past

17:05 your first stage of grieving because you haven't really had this person

17:09 in your life that's supporting you

17:12 and giving you the understanding and the validation

17:15 of what what you've been dealing with, the greatest loss in your life.

17:19 You can't heal if you're holding all of that stuff in.

17:23 You understand.

17:28 I understand.

17:30 Probably more than anybody.

17:40 Would you let me help you?

17:44 Let me help you heal.

17:59 Where are you, Ridge?

18:02 Where are you?

18:17 No, Brooke.

18:20 You've done enough damage already.

18:32 Come on.

18:42 I'm here for you, Ridge.

18:47 I'm here for you always.
