Bold and the Beautiful - 2009 (S22 E170) FULL EPISODE 5571

0:01 You heard just the queen of melodrama.

0:04 All the indignities to your children, the injustices.

0:08 A day of reckoning.

0:10 What What are you going to come down

0:11 from the heavens and and smite us with your mighty sword?

0:15 Hmm, an interesting thought.

0:18 Newsflash.

0:20 Eric, trust my family.

0:24 We are on the inside and you, my darling, are on the outside.

0:31 You're just a bitter woman bent on destruction, but it's not going to happen.

0:35 We control Forrester, Stephanie.

0:38 And we're going to survive no matter what you do.

0:42 Well, then you have nothing to fear, do you?

0:46 I'm not scared of you.

0:48 Good.

0:50 But you know, honey, the truth is you're too dumb to know

0:52 when trouble's staring you right in the face.

1:12 Well, you're in a good mood.

1:13 Oh, my.

1:14 I love this little gadget.

1:16 Since when did you learn to download music?

1:18 Uh Owen taught me.

1:20 Oh, Nikki, I am so thrilled that you and Bridget are together again.

1:25 How is Katie taking the news?

1:28 She's trying to be supportive.

1:30 I'm sure she and Bridget will mend their friendship soon.

1:33 Yeah, well, that's a blessing, isn't it?

1:35 Especially for Katie.

1:36 Might have alleviated her guilty conscience.

1:39 Hey.

1:41 About your involvement with Owen.

1:46 [laughter] I think it's embarrassing that you have to pay for sex, mother.

1:49 Darling, that's not what is happening.

1:52 He went from stock boy to chief of staff.

1:55 Mhm.

1:55 Yeah, he deserved that promotion.

1:58 He's got a lot of talent.

1:59 He's also half your age.

2:00 Yes, he is young, isn't he?

2:02 He's young and very fit.

2:03 Oh my god, you should see him with his shirt off.

2:05 I am Please, please.

2:10 Let's not forget that you're my mother.

2:15 Jackie planted that kiss on you at the beach house.

2:18 I was a little shocked.

2:22 I still can't believe you two are together.

2:24 Well, we uh we have fun together.

2:27 You know, she likes to do this little thing at uh

2:30 Like she threatens me with my job and and I come running.

2:34 Really?

2:36 How does that make you feel?

2:39 Actually feel good.

2:41 I don't know why, but uh I kind of like it.

2:54 This whole Bill Spencer thing is ridiculous.

2:56 You're devaluing this company completely so that someday in the future

3:00 he can buy it at a bargain basement price.

3:02 Give me that.

3:04 Eric, you have to calm down.

3:06 We should have seen this coming.

3:09 Maybe not from Spencer.

3:12 With all the bad press,

3:13 the sabotage fashion show, the infighting within our company,

3:18 it's only a matter of time before Forrester was compromised.

3:21 Say it, Ridge.

3:23 It's all of the Logans' fault.

3:25 Listen, Donna, we've had setbacks, we've made mistakes.

3:30 But getting rid of mother was the biggest one of all.

3:37 Looks good.

3:38 Thank you.

3:40 Hello, Taylor.

3:42 What's up?

3:43 I just had a very interesting conversation with my ex-husband.

3:48 Stephanie, Eric is not [clears throat] your friend.

3:51 He's your enemy.

3:53 But if somehow he's reached you and you're here

3:56 to implore me to stop my attack on his company, it ain't going to happen.

4:00 No, I want you to publish the next edition of The Logan Chronicles.

4:07 Good.

4:09 Excellent.

4:10 I also have um I'm just about finished with my next

4:13 blog and I'm all set to do the next webcast.

4:18 You're still going to help me in my campaign to acquire Forrester.

4:21 Yes.

4:22 Although to be honest, I do have my own agenda.

4:25 Nothing comes for free.

4:27 What's our alliance going to cost me?

4:31 Ah.

4:48 [music] So, you have no problem sleeping your way to the top.

5:00 I like Jackie and she digs me.

5:02 We've got a very unique relationship.

5:04 That's definitely one way to put it.

5:06 Look, Bridget, I earned my title here at Jackie M based on my hard work,

5:13 not my other talents.

5:14 Look, Jackie is an amazing woman, but the promotion was a fringe benefit.

5:19 Ugh, it is jammed.

5:22 Owen fixed it for me the last time.

5:24 I don't know what You look ridiculous with that thing on.

5:29 Okay.

5:30 What is the matter?

5:31 I mean, you are so serious all the time.

5:34 I know you're concerned about my involvement with Owen,

5:36 but darling, you don't need to be.

5:38 I'm fine.

5:39 I'm a man, mother.

5:40 I know how men think.

5:41 And I think he's using you.

5:43 Well, I'm a grown woman.

5:44 Exactly.

5:46 He's going to want something.

5:47 What if he wants to have a kid or a family?

5:49 You're not going to be able to give him that.

5:50 Yes, darling, I know that.

5:53 We're just living for the moment, that's all.

5:56 And boy, does it feel good.

5:58 Just in these situations,

6:00 someone always winds up getting the shaft somewhere along the line.

6:04 Possibly.

6:06 But for the first time in a very, very long time, I am happy.

6:12 And it's all because of Owen.

6:16 Oh, it's working.

6:19 [laughter] Getting rid of Stephanie was the best

6:24 [music] thing that Eric did for this company.

6:26 She is blackmailing your father.

6:29 What the hell are you talking about?

6:31 Tell him.

6:31 Go ahead and tell him.

6:34 Your mother offered to pull the plug on this Logan Chronicles crap if I

6:38 would guarantee her children a secure spot

6:41 at Forrester Creations now and in my will.

6:44 She wants all of the Logans out.

6:48 I turned her down.

6:51 I can only imagine what Stephanie is going to do next.

6:57 So, what happened with Eric?

7:00 Well, I gave him the chance to do the right thing and he refused.

7:04 So, I'm here to double-check with you that your offer is still good.

7:09 We may be able to work something out.

7:12 I'll bring Eric to his knees, buy the company at a great price,

7:15 and turn around sell it for a profit.

7:18 To me.

7:20 I want you to sell the company to me.

7:22 Do you have that kind of cash, Donna?

7:24 Money has never been a problem, even in these times.

7:27 I'll tell you a little story.

7:29 When my husband gave me the boot, so to speak, I thought, gosh,

7:34 I've lost everything, you know, my family,

7:36 my business, the company, just everything.

7:39 And I lost this in a way, my sense of self-worth.

7:45 And then I thought, wait a minute.

7:50 Along comes Nick Marone,

7:52 offers me a partnership in Jackie M and I think to myself,

7:58 I have the brains and the expertise to take this company and turn it around.

8:02 And he gave me a sense of myself again, which I will always be grateful for.

8:08 It focused me.

8:10 It really focused me.

8:12 What I want to accomplish, what my agenda is,

8:15 is to get control of Forrester again and put

8:17 that control firmly in the hands of my children.

8:28 Oh my, can I tell you something for the hundredth time

8:31 how happy I am that you and Nick are back together again?

8:35 Do you know how long I've waited for this reconciliation?

8:39 Do I hear wedding bells?

8:40 Oh, Jackie, please.

8:42 We're taking our time after everything that's happened.

8:45 Okay, but don't take too long.

8:48 You know how much he loves you.

8:51 Yes, and we're just going to be careful.

8:54 We We want to do everything right this time.

8:56 No need to push.

8:58 Your son is very, very um protective of me.

9:04 And everyone else he cares about, too.

9:07 Oh.

9:09 You're talking about me now and my involvement with Owen.

9:13 I mean, I know he doesn't want me to get

9:15 hurt and I won't and I'll Nick will come around.

9:20 I I know he will.

9:24 Yeah, you wanted to see me?

9:26 Close the door.

9:34 I don't like what's going on between you and my mother.

9:37 I make her happy.

9:39 Why does that bother you so much?

9:40 You've got Bridget, I've got Jackie.

9:42 Life is good, right?

9:45 This isn't my first rodeo, son.

9:48 I know guys like you have a price tag.

9:51 I'd like to know what yours is.

9:55 I'd like to know what it's going to cost me to get you out of my mother's life.

10:01 Pam, I told you I did not want to be interrupted.

10:03 No, just tell them that just tell them the check is in the mail.

10:07 All right.

10:11 Another vendor demanding money and the banks are not making loans

10:14 and the economy has retail ruined and the bad publicity isn't helping either.

10:20 Dad, why can't you face it?

10:21 This company is in trouble.

10:23 And the person pushing Forrester Creations over the edge is Stephanie.

10:28 Did your father ever tell you that it was

10:31 my father that gave us the money to start Forrester Creations?

10:34 He did.

10:35 The idea being of course that I would, you know,

10:37 put a run the financial end of the situation [music]

10:40 and Eric would naturally be the creative genius behind it all.

10:44 I consider Forrester Creations my children's legacy.

10:51 It's their birthright.

10:54 I cannot allow the company to collapse and to be perfectly honest,

10:58 I didn't realize that I might have a chance to wrest control of the company.

11:05 But the Logan Chronicles has become such a hit.

11:08 I mean, with you and and Spencer Publications on my side,

11:12 I might just have a chance.

11:15 Does Eric have any sense of this at all?

11:18 How determined I am?

11:19 No, I don't suppose he does.

11:22 My father always said he underestimated you.

11:25 Well, I guess it'll be his loss.

11:27 I'm determined to protect [music] my children's legacy and I think I

11:31 can put the right resources together with a couple of the kids.

11:34 We get control of the company and we can push the Logans out.

11:40 Eric was a fool to think he could dump all over someone like you.

11:45 Now he's going to learn his lesson.

11:55 Eric.

11:56 Yeah, what is it, Bill?

11:57 What do you want?

11:58 You passed on my offer to buy Forrester for a hundred million, but I'm a sport.

12:04 So, I'm going to give you a second chance.

12:06 80 million, my new best offer.

12:08 Save your breath.

12:10 You might want to reconsider.

12:12 Forget it.

12:15 Wait till you see the next installment of the Logan Chronicles.

12:18 I suggest that you make the deal, Eric.

12:21 Now.

12:25 Well, he's a stubborn man.

12:28 Doesn't give up easily.

12:30 I think we're going to have to wear him down.

12:35 But I honestly think that between the two of us,

12:38 he um won't really stand a chance.

12:43 Spencer's [music] senses were vulnerable.

12:45 He's going to keep coming after us.

12:48 Eric, I don't want you to worry, okay?

12:50 I'm here for you.

12:52 And the Logans are going to help Forrester Creations through this crisis.

13:07 I'll be back.

13:11 Another magnificent design.

13:15 Thank you.

13:21 Jackie, you must know that Nick doesn't trust Owen at all.

13:26 But I do.

13:28 And that's all that [clears throat] Nick needs to know.

13:32 Yeah, I mean, he might put a bit of pressure on Owen,

13:35 but well, then I will just have to defend our relationship.

13:42 It's quite charming when you think about it.

13:47 What's your price?

13:50 Are you trying to bribe me?

13:52 I don't think you get it.

13:55 I like your mother a lot.

13:57 The price.

14:00 I'm not going anywhere, Nick.

14:03 I'm going to stay here as long as your mother wants me here.

14:11 Hey.

14:13 I'll be watching you.

14:16 Go ahead.

14:17 Cuz all you're going to see is me making your mother extremely happy.

14:31 Can I get you something and some tea with some honey?

14:40 No.

14:42 You know, this is all all Stephanie's fault.

14:47 If she really cared about this company,

14:49 she would stop these nasty blogs and and these webcasts.

14:53 But she is she's trying to get revenge

14:56 on my family and she's hurting her own children instead.

15:01 Yeah, well.

15:04 It's working.

15:08 Thank you, Owen.

15:18 Okay.

15:20 You got me here.

15:22 What?

15:23 Thank you for coming.

15:27 I need your help.

15:29 I want to try and regain control of the company.

15:33 I want to do it for you and Thorne and Felicia.

15:39 Is this the same company that you've

15:40 been very successfully trashing on the internet?

15:43 I need your help.

15:45 I think that your father has lost his way.

15:48 This company is in complete chaos and it's not because of me.

15:52 Where's your new line?

15:53 Where's the new product?

15:54 You're missing going to miss a whole season.

15:57 And all I hear from your father is Rick,

16:01 my son needs my help and my guidance and that's the same

16:04 thing that keeps coming out of out of Brooke's mouth all the time.

16:06 I see what it's doing to you.

16:08 Look, I'm not going to have this conversation with you again.

16:10 Why not?

16:11 Because you know it's true.

16:12 How is it true?

16:14 Tell me exactly what you're trying to say here.

16:16 I know you love your father and I appreciate your loyalty to him,

16:20 but he is driving this company right into the ground because he has a fantasy.

16:27 A sweet fantasy, but a fantasy nonetheless.

16:30 Both sets of his children are going to work side by side.

16:33 You and Rick are going to work together.

16:35 Yada yada yada.

16:36 We both know that's never going to happen.

16:38 I know that, but he doesn't.

16:41 Donna and Rick and Brooke are leading him around by the nose.

16:46 That's why we have to take the company back.

16:53 Do I need to remind you that I am in fact married to a Logan?

16:57 That my life revolves around and is committed to a Logan?

17:01 And tell how happy has she made you lately.

17:04 All I hear from her is her defense of Rick ad nauseam.

17:10 I'm not going to talk about Rick here.

17:12 How can we not talk about him?

17:15 Look, I'd like to strangle the guy as much as anyone,

17:17 but when all said and done, he's still Brooke's son.

17:20 Yes, and she will always choose him over you.

17:25 This is suffocating.

17:26 I can see that.

17:28 This is no way to lead your life.

17:31 Making nice to a man who killed your daughter?

17:36 He wants you out of his mother's life.

17:40 And until that happens, he's never going to leave Steffy alone.

17:47 This is all about you.

17:49 This is all about his anger and his hatred for you.

17:55 What the hell am I supposed to do then?

17:58 Get Brooke out of your life.

18:00 She isn't making it any better.

18:02 I know you don't want to hear this, but Taylor is your lifeline.

18:07 You've got to walk away from Brooke and from Rick before

18:10 they take everything away from you that you hold most dear.

18:15 Don't you I can see it in your face how unhappy you are.

18:20 This is no way to live your life.

18:21 Please listen to me.

18:23 If you come with me, if we pool our resources,

18:27 you and me and Thorne and Felicia, we can get control of the company.

18:32 I believe that.

18:34 You have to do this.

18:36 Not just for yourself, but for your children and for their children.

18:41 Honey, we have to push the Logans out of the company.

18:47 That means that Brooke has to go.

18:50 That's just the way it is.

18:53 But I honestly think we can do this together.
