Bill: Do you hear what he's saying, Liam?

Liam: Okay. So... this blood clot, I-I mean, if Steffy gets stressed at all--

Bill: She can't be. She can't be upset in any way, right?

Dr. Rivera: It could be fatal. It's a critical time for your wife. She needs a lot of support. She's counting on you.

Bill: So if you go in there and--and you tell her what I think you're going to tell her, that you want a divorce--

Liam: Dad. Dad.

Bill: If you tell Steffy that you're gonna leave her for Hope, she could die, Liam, and you and Hope would never survive that. The guilt, it would overtake everything.

Liam: What do I do?

Bill: Do you want to risk your wife's death?

Liam: No. No.

Bill: Okay. All right. All right, then you--you-- you love her and you support her. Liam, I'm sorry. I really am, but sometimes things happen for a reason. And maybe this tragedy, as--as terrible as--as it was, it will allow you to focus on what's important. And you will get these crazy ideas about being with Hope out of your head.

Liam: (Sighs) (Sighs)

Thomas: Need some more water?

Steffy: No. No, thank you. You don't have to fuss over me.

Taylor: We're fussing. Don't argue.

Steffy: I'm feeling pretty good, considering.

Ridge: How's the headache?

Steffy: Pounding, but a little less than before.

Taylor: Well, we better let you get some rest, okay?

Steffy: No, don't--don't go. I don't want to be left alone.

Bill: It's obvious what you need to do, Liam.

Liam: (Scoffs) Maybe to you.

Bill: You heard the doctor. You know what's at stake now.

Liam: Excuse me. I need to go see my wife.

Dr. Rivera: I should give you your check back.

Bill: Excuse me?

Dr. Rivera: This isn't right. I took an oath. I cannot lie like this.

Bill: You're not compromising your Hippocratic Oath. In fact, you are exceeding its expectations. You gave Steffy exceptional care. You're helping to save her marriage. And most importantly, you'll be saving the lives of an infinite amount of patients with a state-of-the-art cardio wing that I am providing for you. You stick to the story with a clear conscience.

Steffy: Liam.

Liam: Um... can I have a-a moment alone with Steffy?

Taylor: Yeah, of--of course.

Ridge: Don't let her talk too much. She's still very weak and in a lot of pain, so just let her rest.

Liam: Yeah.

Steffy: I'm sorry.

Liam: Steffy...

Steffy: No, I... I messed up. I knew Hope was there, and I just...

Liam: You lied to me again. I don't... I don't understand why there has to be secrets.

Steffy: I know. I'm your wife. Not her. (Sighs) I just... (Sighs) I get insecure sometimes... even when there's no reason to be. Right? I hope you know how sorry I am. Really stupid to be so insecure and to keep secrets. I don't want to be that person.

(Door opens)

Bill: Sorry to interrupt, you two, but the doctor's gathering everyone together. They're heading in here. He wants to discuss your diagnosis with all of us.

Steffy: You think he'll say when I can come home?

Bill: Let's not rush anything, Steffy. You've had a terrible accident. All that matters right now is your complete recovery.

Dr. Rivera: I have the results of Steffy's latest M.R.I.

Taylor: Um, the original C.T. scan, it--it showed no hemorrhaging or tears?

Dr. Rivera: Correct. But this latest scan shows something we didn't pick up at first.

Ridge: What is it?

Steffy: Mom?

Dr. Rivera: A blood clot.

Steffy: What does that mean?

Dr. Rivera: Hopefully nothing. I don't want to worry you, but there is some cause for concern.

Ridge: The possibility of a stroke?

Dr. Rivera: It could occur, yes.

Taylor: But it isn't anything that's going to require surgery, is it?

Dr. Rivera: No.

Taylor: Maybe just blood thinners?

Dr. Rivera: Rest assured, we'll take care of this. Your daughter's in good hands, but she requires something more than medicine.

Steffy: What? What do you mean?

Taylor: No stress, Honey.

Dr. Rivera: Exactly. The meds will-- only can do so much. In cases like this, it's imperative that the patient have a supportive, stable environment. You all need to provide that, especially you, her husband.

Taylor: Steffy's gonna need a lot of loving care.

Dr. Rivera: The primary ingredient to recovery.

Liam: I'll be right back.

Liam: Hope, hey.

Hope: Hi. Uh, you should-- you should be with your wife.

Liam: I know. I-I-I will. I saw you leaving. I just wanted to make sure you're okay.

Hope: Mm-hmm. It's just its really scary, huh?

Liam: I can't imagine losing her.

Hope: Oh, yeah, and you know, what it would do to Ridge and--and Taylor.

Liam: Yeah. I'm sorry.

Hope: Don't. There's--there's really nothing to say. It's fine.

Liam: (Laughs) I just--I really thought that...

Hope: I know. I know. (Sniffles) But things change. I know how this ends. It's okay.

Liam: She's gonna be okay...

Hope: Mm-hmm.

Liam: And she's-- I mean, she's gonna be fine, you know, and--

Hope: Yeah. She will be. She will be fine... (Sniffles) As long as you two are together. (Sniffles)

Ridge: This right here... the looks, the touching-- no more. It has to stop. For God sakes, Steffy's life depends on it.

Dr. Rivera: This is where you run into trouble.

Bill: Why is that?

Dr. Rivera: I have medicine here for Steffy.

Bill: Yeah, what was Taylor talking about, uh, blood thinners? I mean, you're not gonna give Steffy any actual medication.

Dr. Rivera: Of course not. (Sighs) No. No. She doesn't need them. I've got placebos here she can take, no problem, as well as some aspirin, which I suspect she desperately needs, anyway.

Bill: All right, so what's the problem?

Dr. Rivera: Once she goes to a doctor in Los Angeles, they'll find nothing wrong.

Bill: All right, listen, let me worry about that, okay? Listen, you're doing a good thing here, Doc. Don't doubt that. Just think about the check I gave you and all the lives you're gonna save because of it. Now, uh, get movin'. Go give Steffy her medication.

Bill: (Sighs)

Taylor: Do you have any pain?

Steffy: Not really.

Thomas: No?

Steffy: Okay, maybe just a little.

Thomas: All right, hold on. Let me call a nurse.

Steffy: (Sighs)

Thomas: Okay. Oh, Doctor.

Dr. Rivera: Hi. Steffy, I have your medicine.

Steffy: Oh, just in time.

Dr. Rivera: If you'll excuse me.

Taylor: Oh. Yeah.

Steffy: (Sighs)

Dr. Rivera: I need you to sit up, huh?

Steffy: Okay.

Dr. Rivera: Here you go.

Bill: You okay?

Taylor: No.

Bill: Taylor, you heard what the doctor said. Steffy's going to be fine. She just needs a little love and attention.

Taylor: I just don't know if Liam understands what's happening here and that her life is in his hands.

Bill: He will. I'll make sure of it.

Ridge: This all has to stop now.

Hope: (Sighs) Ridge, we were just talking.

Ridge: Yeah, I see the way you talk, Hope. I see the way you look at each other.

Hope: (Scoffs)

Ridge: Come on. What if Steffy had seen this, the stress that it would cause her?

Liam: We understand the situation, Ridge.

Ridge: And yet, the both of you are still out here carrying on.

Liam: We are all concerned for Steffy. Hope and I are totally committed to making sure she recovers, of course. I mean, she's my wife. I love her. I'm not gonna do anything stupid, but I'm not gonna lie, either. Things are not good for us right now. I mean, she knows how frustrated I am.

Ridge: Steffy is lying in that bed right now struggling for her life. You're frustrated, Liam? Well, deal with it.

Liam: You... (Sighs) You know what this-- you know what this trip was supposed to be for me? Time away with my wife-- you know the honeymoon we never had, relaxing, enjoying each other. It was Steffy-- it was Steffy the whole time that was running around trying to keep me from seeing Hope. She's that insecure, Ridge. I have every right to be frustrated.

Ridge: Yeah, well, she's insecure, obviously, for a reason. Look, everybody sees it, Liam.

Liam: (Sighs)

Ridge: There's a connection between you two. Well, sever it! I am not gonna lose my daughter because of you. You respect Steffy. You respect Hope. You made a commitment, my friend. Stick with it.

Woman: (Speaking Spanish)

Hope: (Sighs) Mm.

(Telephone rings)

Thomas: (Sighs) (Ring)

Thomas: Hey.

Hope: Hey.

Thomas: Hanging in there?

Hope: Mm-hmm. How's Steffy?

Thomas: Strong. Yeah, she's probably really worried, but you know her. She's not gonna show it.

Hope: Hmm. Thomas, how involved were you?

Thomas: With what?

Hope: With keeping Liam and me from seeing each other-- how involved were you?

Thomas: (Sighs) I did what I had to do. Liam is married to my sister. He has no right to keep you dangling. It's--its wrong, and... (Sighs) And it's not fair to both you and Steffy.

Hope: It doesn't justify keeping things from me. We were at the same hotel. So what?

Thomas: I know. I know. I--we were just having a good time, and then Steffy, she showed up, and--and I knew... I knew our vacation would be over. One look at Liam, and you would have just shut down.

Hope: (Sighs)

Thomas: All wanted was to bring you here and swim and laugh and enjoy the sun and help you forget about Liam and Steffy and all this drama... and show you that life can be fun again. I'm sorry I disappointed you, but I did what I thought was right.

Hope: Okay. I get it. But, Thomas, look how it turned out. Your sister is in the hospital.

Thomas: Steffy's gonna be okay. They're treating her blood clot, and Liam is gonna stand by her. I mean as to, after what the doctor said.

Hope: Yeah.

Thomas: And he's gonna love her and support her. I think he realizes now that he needs to be by his wife's side.

Bill: Going back in there, Liam, to be with your wife?

Liam: Yeah. Just I-I need a minute.

Bill: She's counting on you.

Liam: (Sighs)

Ridge: You made promises to Steffy, commitments. You better keep them.

Taylor: Liam, please don't let my daughter down.

Woman: (Speaks Spanish) Okay?

Liam: Uh...

Woman: (Speaks Spanish)

Liam: Thank--uh, thank you. Uh, grac--gracias.

Woman: De nada. (Speaks Spanish)

Steffy: What did she say?

Liam: No idea. (Laughs)

Steffy: Oh.

Liam: But I sounded positive.

Steffy: (Laughs) Ow. Oh, don't--oh--make me laugh. It hurts.

Liam: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Steffy: Oh.

Liam: (Sighs) The medicine is not kicking in yet, huh?

Steffy: A little, but I'm feeling better now that you're back. I'm sorry.

Liam: Steffy--

Steffy: No, I ruined everything.

Liam: No. (Sighs) You didn't.

Steffy: (Sighs) I did. But I will... I'll work on my insecurity.

Liam: Hey, look.

Steffy: I promise.

Liam: Look, you--don't even think about that right now--any of it.

Steffy: Okay. It's kind of freaky, huh? Blood clot?

Liam: You'll be fine.

Steffy: Yeah. I will... with you by my side. We'll get through this together. I know I will be okay as long as I have my husband.
