Eric: Sheila?
Finn: You guys have already met. I… know I shouldn’t probably be bringing anyone to your home, but…and I apologize, but wait until you hear. You–you don’t mind, do you? If–if…she joins us?
Ridge: Of course he minds. We all mind.
Brooke: Get her out of here.
Finn: What’s going on?
Sheila: I never should have let you talk me into– to coming in here. I knew exactly how they were gonna react, so I’m just gonna– I’m just gonna go.
Finn: No, no…
Steffy: What are you even doing here? It’s my wedding day.
Finn: That’s what I want to tell you. That’s what we want to tell you. I have the most exciting news. You are never gonna believe what I just found out.
Katie: Oh, my gosh! Where did you get all these photos?
Donna: Pammy gave these to me. I guess she was, you know, cleaning out a closet or something, making more space for crocheted doilies or…
Katie: [Chuckles]
Donna: Or was it baking supplies? You know, honestly, I only listen to half of what she says. But I wanted to do something with these, you know? Make a special surprise for my honey–
Katie: Hmm?
Donna: For eric. Eric. You know, after everything that happened with quinn. Just trying to cheer him up a little. Oh, my god, look at this!
Katie: Oh!
Donna: It’s the twins when they were babies! I mean, how could that not put a smile on eric’s face?
Katie: Oh, of course it will. Gosh, look at steffy! So grown up. And she already has kids of her own! How did that happen?
Donna: I don’t know. I don’t know, and she’s getting married today.
Katie: Did you see the photo that brooke texted?
Donna: Yeah. Looked like a beautiful ceremony.
Katie: Mmm.
Donna: Unusual, though.
Katie: Unusual how?
Donna: A forrester wedding without drama? Since when does that happen? I mean, come on.
Katie: [Chuckles] Very true.
Donna: Aw! Look.
Katie: Oh, my gosh. Brookie! Sissy.
Katie: Is this a picture of finn’s father?
Donna: Oh, right, jack. Jack. Um, he and finn’s mother stopped by forrester the other day, and they seemed really nice.
Katie: Are they local?
Donna: No, no. They, um, they flew in from, um… actually, I–I don’t think they said.
Katie: You know, come to think of it, we don’t really know that much about the finnegan family.
Donna: No, we don’t, but I’m assuming that’s gonna change, now that steffy’s become one.
Katie: Well, I can’t wait to meet finn’s father and mother.
Donna: Right? Oh…
Katie: [Gasps]
Donna: How did this get in there?
Katie: Oh, my gosh! Pam really is a packrat. I would’ve thought she would’ve gotten rid of this photo a long time ago.
Donna: [Laughs] Okay, I’m gonna pass on including any photos from that time of eric’s life.
Katie: Yeah, uh, that’s a wise choice.
Donna: [Groans] And we thought quinn was bad. But sheila? Sheila? I still can’t believe he was ever married to her.
Katie: I’m just gonna put this in the reject pile.
Donna: Good idea.
Brooke: You don’t even know what you’re getting yourself into, finn.
Sheila: Brooke, please, stop. You know things have changed.
Ridge: Changed how? What’s changed?
Sheila: I’ve stayed away, haven’t I?
Steffy: But you’re here now.
Finn: Okay, seriously, what is going on?
Sheila: Yeah, I’m gonna go, and I’m gonna let them explain everything to you. I just hope that someday you’ll– you’ll ask to hear my side of the story.
Steffy: No, there’s no reason for my husband to be in contact with you.
Eric: Or for any of us, sheila. You’re not welcome in this home.
Ridge: Come on, you heard the man, time to go.
Finn: Wait, wait, you don’t understand. She belongs here. Let her stay. Gorgeous and talented and
Katie: Oh, please. She alhe was henry viii.
Katie: Of a liberty. Liberty.
Liberty. Liberty.
Katie: Of all of eric’s wives, you definitely were the best suited for him.
Donna: Oh, come on, don’t make it sound like he was henry viii. There weren’t dozens of us.
Katie: I know, but looking back, you were certainly the best match, and I’m sure that eric would agree.
Donna: Well, don’t tell brooke.
Katie: Oh, please. She already knows.
Donna: Well, thank you. I actually agree.
Katie: [Chuckles]
Donna: But you know, I mean, let’s face it. It’s not like brooke could give her full attention to him. I mean, she knew in her heart she was meant for ridge. And stephanie? Forget about it. I mean, look, I respected that woman like no other, but… being a caring, loving wife was definitely not in her repertoire.
Katie: Well, you can say the same for quinn and sheila. I can’t believe he ever married either one of them.
Donna: Yeah, but, you know, I could see why he fell for quinn. I mean, she’s gorgeous and talented and she’s so smart. But sheila? Hello?
Katie: I guess you can kind of say the same thing about her. I mean, we weren’t really there when it went down. We weren’t living here when it all happened. So, thank god.
Donna: Yeah, but we heard about all the gruesome details. You remember, brooke would call and tell us what sheila was up to. And we just– we wouldn’t even believe it.
Katie: They were stories right out of a nightmare.
Donna: Stories that can’t be forgotten. Because the moment you do, the moment you put your guard down around someone like her…
Katie: Oh, no, no, no, no. You can’T. Not ever. Someone like sheila can never be trusted again.
Donna: [Shudders]
Ridge: I don’t know what she told you to make you think that she belongs here, but she doesn’t, and she knows she doesn’T.
Sheila: I do. I–I was hoping maybe… okay, you know what? We don’t need the theatrics, ridge, okay? I’ll leave on my own.
Finn: No, no, no, no. Please don’T.
Ridge: Do you know this woman?
Finn: No, we–we just met.
Ridge: Well, you never have to meet her again. Get her out of the house.
Steffy: This is our wedding day, this is our celebration. I know you don’t understand, but she’s not welcome.
Finn: It’s a time to celebrate with friends and family.
Steffy: She is neither. Trust me on this.
Thomas: She used you, finn. She’s just here to crash the wedding for some reason.
Finn: No, I know the reason. That’s what I’m trying to tell you.
Brooke: How did you manipulate finn into thinking he should allow you in here? What kind of lies did you tell him?
Finn: Lies?
Sheila: No. I wouldn’t lie to you, I swear.
Brooke: You don’t know how to tell the truth. You never have.
Sheila: I would–I would never lie about this, something so important as this.
Steffy: Important? Finn, nothing she has to say has any importance to us. Trust me on this.
Finn: This is where you’re wrong, okay? This is… this is so important.
Steffy: Then what is it? What does she have to say?
Finn: Just, if you give me a chance, I will tell you. I want her here, celebrating with all of us. And after you hear what I have learned… you will, too. (Asaad) since my mother got cancer from smoking, oh, my god! Look at that!, Or two… frame them or put them
Katie: So what are you gonna do with these? Are you gonna frame them or put them in some sort of album?
Donna: I don’t know exactly. I guess it depends on how many I use. Ooh! Look at this! Eric and stephanie when they were so young! Oh, my god! Look at that! This is a keeper, this… definitely a keeper.
Katie: You know, I’m impressed that you’re using photos of other women instead of just making this a tribute to your time with eric.
Donna: I definitely thought about it, trust me. But… [Sighs] You know, the point of this is to remind eric that he has a lifetime of happy memories to look back on. You know, fashion shows and vacations and family gatherings, children and grandchildren, yeah, a wife, or two… or three. [Laughs] Am I gonna sprinkle a few extra pictures of my time? You betcha, but… yeah, I don’t want to ignore the other parts of his life that brought him joy. But I will definitely, 100%, ignore the painful ones. I mean, 100% no quinn and no sheila.
Katie: Yeah, that would be a completely different album. It would be like, “here you go, eric. Here’s a retrospective of all of your worst decisions.”
Donna: Oh, my god, can you imagine?
Katie: You know, maybe that’s why his martini tradition got started. He was trying to forget all the horrible things that sheila did.
Donna: [Laughs] No amount of booze is gonna ever make you forget those horrible memories, but…
Katie: All that violence. That vile, ugly behavior.
Eric: Sheila, no, no.
Sheila: Eric:, You stay where you are. Nothing’s gonna change my mind so don’t even try. No, it is going to end right here, right now. And it’s going to start with you, stephanie.
[Gunshot echoes]
[Insects buzzing]
Lance: Oh, my god, bees! They’re everywhere!
[Panting] My allergies… help me. Help me, please.
Sheila: Help you the way you helped me, lance?
Lance: Oh, god…
Sheila: Oh, you made a big mistake, lance. You messed with the wrong mama.
Donna: The thought of sheila just gives me the creeps. I just–I never want to see that woman again.
Katie: Well, at least we haven’t seen her in a while. Hopefully it stays that way.
Donna: Yeah.
Ridge: All right, everyone take a breath. I’m gonna walk this one off the premises, okay?
Steffy: Good idea.
Finn: No, hey, that’s not a good idea. She’s a part of this. She’s part of us.
Liam: Dude, finn, you’re not getting it. She’s trying to protect you.
Finn: Protect? I don’t need protection–
Brooke: From sheila? Yes, you most certainly do. You want me to tell you what she did to me in this very room?
Sheila: You know, maybe you should hear what he has to say before you rehash ancient history.
Thomas: Ancient history? Steffy and I spent years without our mother. We’re supposed to forget about that?
Sheila: And I apologized for that and I meant it. You’re about to learn some things, and it’s gonna be really difficult to hear. It’s gonna be difficult for me, too. But what you really need to know is these people knew me a lifetime ago. So much has changed since then. It truly has.
Finn: Okay, I’m–I’m sorry. I’m–I’m very confused here. I have this incredible news. We had an unbelievable conversation. I want them to be happy for me.
Li: Honey? Honey, what is it? What did this woman say to you?
Finn: Mom, you know I love you, right?
Li: Of course.
Finn: Blood or not… you’re always my mother.
Li: Always.
Finn: But I’ve had questions over the years, wondering… you know, where I came from.
Li: I wish I had answers for you. Your father and I never received any details about your birth parents. I know you’ve wondered about them. Especially your mother. When you were young you used to ask me if she remembered you.
Finn: It was important… for me to know that I wasn’t forgotten. And it turns out I wasn’T. She’d been thinking about me all these–all these years.
Li: Are you– are you saying…
Finn: She’s made herself known today.
Steffy: Finn…
Finn: On my wedding day.
Steffy: No…
Finn: This… this woman, sheila, is my birth mother.
Steffy: [Groans quietly]
I may have moderate to
severe rheumatoid arthritis. The way she tells itonna: Eric was so brave
Donna: Eric was so brave that day. Standing up to sheila with a gun pointed right at him.
Katie: Well, brooke was pretty brave, too. I mean, the way she tells it, she could’ve gotten out of there, but then she heard the gun go off and… sheila had shot taylor. She ran back in, put her own life at risk.
Donna: Thank god eric was able to wrestle that gun away… and knock sheila out the way he did. Otherwise, all three of them might have been killed.
Katie: I don’t even want to think about it. Or her. I’m just grateful that she’s out of our lives. So very grateful.
Steffy: Your birth mother.
Finn: Yeah.
Eric: She’s lying.
Sheila: Eric…
Ridge: You’re finn’s mother? You want us to believe that now?
Li: I’m his mother.
Sheila: And I am so thankful to you. I never could’ve given him the life that you did.
Brooke: I don’t believe this, not for a second.
Sheila: Look, that time in my life, I wasn’t in a good place. I thought I was doing what was best for him.
Brooke: Are you kidding me? When have you ever been in–
Sheila: You don’t need to attack me.
Brooke: The idea that you would put a child’s needs first–
Sheila: You know, I know what I’ve done, the mistakes that I’ve made, and the biggest mistake I have ever made… was giving you up. I truly regret that. I didn’t come here today to ruin your wedding. I came here today to meet my son.
Brooke: We don’t believe you.
Ridge: So this is good. You found out he is adopted, so you came up with this sick plan.
Sheila: What do you want me to do, take a dna test?
Ridge: Why not?
Brooke: Uh, yeah! I’m sure that you’ve probably figured out a way to–
Finn: I really don’t think that she’s lying.
Li: I realize you want to be excited about this. A part of you wants to be excited and I want to be excited for you, too, but… honey, what the forresters are saying…it’s clear this woman has an agenda.
Steffy: It’s all a lie! It’s a con!
Jack: No, it’S…it’s not.
Li: What?
Jack: She’s telling the truth.
Li: No. How could you know? You’ve never had any information about his birth parents. Jack?
Jack: She contacted me years ago.
Li: And…you didn’t tell me?
Finn: You knew? I could’ve had a name, I could’ve had a– I could’ve had a picture.
Jack: A mug shot, you mean? I didn’t want that for you, son. These people, they’re not lying. She’s not the kind of person you want in your life. That’s why I kept it a secret, to protect you, to protect both of you. And then when I heard you got involved with… steffy forrester, yeah, I knew the name from fashion, but I also knew because of her. I don’t know all the sordid details, but I knew there was a connection somehow. And, uh… most likely a disturbing one. I should’ve told you.
[Sniffs] I just prayed she wouldn’t show up on your wedding day.
Steffy: So it’s true. She’s finn’s mother. Sheila. Sheila…
Sheila: You married my son. I’m your mother-in-law, steffy.
