Ridge accuses Bill of taking advantage of Steffy and violating her. Enraged, Ridge rolls up his cuffs and grabs Bill by his collar. Bill stays calm, but eventually blurts out that there is more to the story: how he and Steffy grew closer as she and Liam drifted apart. Ridge is stunned when Bill asks him to convince Liam to stay with his wife and unborn child, also driven by the wish to save his father-son-relationship. Brooke returns to the Cliff House where Steffy reveals that that she is expecting. Confused as to why Liam would leave his pregnant wife, Steffy confides in Brooke the truth. Steffy attempts to convince Brooke to calm Ridge down and get through to him that what happened that night with Bill was consensual. Wyatt shares with Katie what he loves most about her and the two worry about what will happen when Ridge and Brooke find out about Bill and Steffy.
