Stephanie, Eric and James anxiously await news on the commission's decision: Will Sheila be released on parole? At the psychiatric hospital, Sheila, Dr. Carey, Nurse Croft and Sarah also wait for news as Sheila grows more and more uneasy about her safety in the hospital. Brooke talks with secretary Megan about the irony that Sheila once used to be in cahoots with Mike Guthrie who is now afraid of her; so she cannot help but wonder if Sheila might actually be dangerous. Across town, the parole board is actively discussing Sheila's past and misdeeds, but also taking into account her recent heroic act as well as Dr. Carey's staunch support. Lauren walks into Ridge's office, but finds Brooke sitting at his desk. Brooke scolds Lauren for going after Ridge.
