Eric and Ridge make their final preparations for the autumn showing. Eric and Ridge are very excited. Caroline shares in their joy and takes Ridge to side where she confesses her love to him once again. Thorne meets with Brooke, terrified of losing Caroline to Ridge. Thorne feels that Caroline is slipping away from him. Brooke tells Thorne that any chance of a relationship between Ridge and Caroline will be over once Ridge learns that she is pregnant. Brooke says that Ridge will marry her and leave Caroline behind. Angela plans a surprise for Stephanie wich worries Todd.

Kristen is stunned when Mick shows up in her office. He professes his love to Kristen and claims that there is no way that Clarke could fulfill her as much as he did. Kristen will not hear it and firmly asks him to leave. Margo takes Clarke out to lunch to the Taxi Bar to win him over - also to no avail: Clarke reminds Margo that he loves Kristen more than anything. Thorne pays Brooke a visit at St. Joe's and learns that she is about to be released from the hospital. Ridge brings Brooke home and prepares to make a confession.
