He warns her not to rush into things with Dante as a reaction to her separation with Nick. Bridget tells him she divorced Nick because he and Brooke are in love. Ridge says Bridget doesn't believe they'll last anymore than he does or she wouldn't have stipulated in her divorce papers that Nick and Brooke couldn't have sex until the divorce was final. Ridge says there is no way Nick will make it 6 months with Brooke if he cannot have sex with her. Bridget tells him it was not her idea, but Brooke's idea to wait until the divorce was final. Ridge is thrilled to learn that it was Brooke's idea to not have sex with Nick. Bridget says Brooke is doing it out of respect, because she and Nick are legally married for another six months.

He tells her he knows what she is up to. Brooke does not understand what he's talking about. Ridge tells her to admit that she has no intention of sleeping with Nick its just payback. Ridge says he realizes that he has hurt her more than anyone else ever has and says he will spend the rest of his life making up for it. He asks her to stop playing games with him. Not knowing what to say, Brooke remains silent.

At Marone, Nick walks into his office and is surprised to find his mother waiting for him. Jackie excitedly tells him Eric is on his way to see Stephanie and end their marriage.
