Owen: Jackie Marone speechless? When's the last time that happened?

Nick: Bridget, are you all right with this?

Bridget: Your mother and Owen belong together.

Nick: Okay.

Bridget: God, I love you both so much for trying to do what's best for Logan. But this is what's best for him. We all know that now.

Liam: So compared to this time last year, "Eye on Fashion's" circulation is up 35%. Keep in mind, that's 10% more than our projected target.

Bill: And we're not even through the first quarter yet.

Liam: Mm.

Justin: Thank you. "Supplement of strategies for increasing advertising revenues across multiple platforms."

Liam: Now obviously, we're doing a lot of this already. But when we give our advertisers more bang for their buck by pairing print buy-ins with robust innovative online presence--

Bill: It widens product exposure for them.

Liam: And it strengthens our bottom line exponentially.

Alison: The name of the game.

Justin: Impressive, Liam. Impressive.

Bill: Yes, he is.

Hope: Hi, Liam. It's me. I know you're in a meeting right now, but I want to talk to you the second you get out. I have made a decision that is going to change our lives. I cannot wait to tell you. Love you. Bye, Liam.

Brooke: Can't wait to tell Liam what, sweetheart?

Jackie: I think I need a glass of water. Wi--with a double shot of bourbon.

Owen: Whoa, whoa, whoa there, gorgeous. I know that this is a bit of a shock.

Jackie: A-a bit of a-- why, shock? I-I-I-I thought this was all settled months ago, and now here is Bridget saying that you're mine again.

Bridget: You made the ultimate sacrifice for our child, and I'll never, ever forget that, nor will Owen. And I--God, I know that you will always be a devoted dad. I know you'll always be there for your son.

Owen: And for my son's mother, whenever you need me, not that you will.

Bridget: I really want this for both of you. So please, don't ever question that. Ohh, come here.

Liam: Now I realize I've, uh, I've thrown a lot at you guys, so any questions?

Man: Uh, no, that was very thorough. Nice job.

Man: I agree. I'll get started on that right now.

Liam: Great.

Bill: That'll be all, gentlemen.

Justin: Lucky for me, you don't have a law degree, or otherwise I'd be worried.

Liam: (Chuckles)

Bill: Feeling a little threatened there, slick?

Justin: I'm good, buddy.

Alison: Personally, I think you should be.

Bill: Really?

Alison: Liam is not just a chip off the old block. He's the old block on steroids.

Bill: Mmm. How much did you pay her to say that?

Liam: I'll never tell.

Bill: Important?

Liam: Uh, it's Hope. I gotta call her back.

Bill: Not yet. I have something to discuss with you first.

Hope: You're disappointed.

Brooke: Sweetheart, no. (Sighs) I understand why you turned to Aunt Katie. I am a little surprised, however, because last night when we talked, you--

Hope: Well, you told me that I might lose him if we waited six months.

Brooke: You didn't think you were asking too much of Liam. You said he understood.

Hope: Yeah, because he respects my values. But... to be honest, I was still a little conflicted. And then Rick came in and told us that Steffy was determined to hold onto Liam. And it just-- it really got to me.

Brooke: That couldn't have been a surprise to you.

Hope: No, but still, I just-- I wanted the waiting to be over, so Liam and I could finally start our lives together, for real. It was just eating at me while I was at work, and I was all wound up. I was a wreck.

Brooke: Aunt Katie helped?

Hope: Yeah, she did. She just let me talk. She let me vent and get it all out, everything that I was feeling. And it's--it's not just about Liam. It's me, too. I mean, we can hardly stand being in the same room together because we want each other so badly. The waiting is driving us crazy. So why should we? We're in love. We're committed to each other. My life with Liam starts tonight.

Brooke: You know how I feel. You and Liam have waited long enough.

Hope: Oh, Mom, I'm so exited

Brooke: (Chuckles) I'm glad for you, honey.

Hope: Thank you. You and Aunt Katie have been our biggest supporters.

Brooke: We just happen to know true love when we see it.

Hope: Ohh. (Chuckles)

Brooke: But none of this would have been an issue if Steffy had signed those annulment papers.

Hope: I know. But it's like you told me. I just didn't hear it at the time. I am taking Steffy's power away. There is nothing that she can hold over our heads anymore.

Brooke: (Sighs)

Hope: It happens tonight. (Giggles)

Brooke: (Giggles)

Liam: Is there a-a problem? 'Cause I feel like the meeting went really well.

Bill: No, I'm proud of ya. You handled yourself like a pro.

Liam: Oh. But?

Bill: Well, Steffy should have been here, too.

Liam: (Sighs)

Bill: She's still on the board, part of the family business.

Liam: Yeah, only until our divorce is final.

Bill: I'm hoping it doesn't come to that.

Liam: You are not gonna let this go, are you?

Bill: No. You're my son. I want what's best for you.

Liam: No, you want what you think is best for me, which is Steffy.

Bill: Hallelujah! He's seen the light.

Liam: Dad, I know how special Steffy is, okay? That's not the point. Yeah, she's creative and passionate and sh-- (Chuckles) She's a troublemaker. But I'm with Hope now, because I admire her, and I respect her, and most importantly, I never have to question her intentions or honesty. In a world that's gone totally freakin' crazy, Hope is the only one who has kept her values and her principles.

Bill: (Sniffling)

Liam: And why are you doing that?

Bill: Oh, it's beautiful, son. It should be on a greeting card. But--

Liam: No, no, no, no, don' that. No "buts," okay? I'm a grown man. I know what I want. I know what makes me happy. And I want Hope. I want a life with her. I want a family with her. Now that may take six months, but it's gonna happen, and you need to accept that.

Bill: I would, if I thought you really had.

Jackie: No, absolutely. I understand. But if you could please call back tomorrow, it would just make--

Owen: Here, allow me. Allow me. Uh, what part of "please call back tomorrow" didn't you understand?

Jackie: No, Owen.

Owen: Wait, who am I?

Jackie: No!

Owen: Oh, I'm your worst nightmare, pal...

Jackie: Owen, no.

Owen: If you don't leave my wife alone.

Jackie: (Gasps)

Owen: Ha. Problem solved.

Jackie: I don't think Father Mackenzie will quite see it that way.

Owen: Who?

Jackie: Father Mackenzie, the priest down the street. That's who you were talking to. He was soliciting donations for the Holy Trinity Charity drive.

Owen: Oh, God, Jackie, why didn't you tell me I was talking to a priest?

Jackie: Because you didn't give me a chance...

Owen: Oh!

Jackie: Darling. You were just too busy being my adoring, avenging hero, something that I've missed so much, by the way. Almost... as much as this.

Liam: Okay, obviously you're making some kind of point. I just don't know what it is.

Bill: Bull. You know precisely what I'm getting at.

Liam: (Sighs) Dad, I have already made my decision to be with Hope.

Bill: And you want me to be on board with it, even though I'm genuinely concerned about what it's already doing to you. You're trying to hide it, but I can see that you're miserable.

Liam: I-I am not miserable. I'm not. I just--I just want my life to get going. I mean, Hope and I have pledged ourselves to each other. That's enough for me. I just don't--

Bill: You don't get why it's not enough for her.

Brooke: Oh, sweetie, I'm so happy for you.

Hope: Mm, that I'm not letting Steffy call the shots?

Brooke: Yes. I'm glad that you're not letting her control your life anymore.

Hope: You know, she wanted me to feel like a hypocrite for moving forward with Liam, but I'm not. He and I are committed to each other, and in my heart, we're already married. (Giggles) Oh, I can't wait to tell him. (Sighs) Come on, Liam, call me.

Owen: Are you picturing what I am?

Jackie: (Giggles) What are you picturing?

Owen: Bubbles, bubbly, you, me.

Jackie: Oh, dear.

Owen: What?

Jackie: (Sighs) all out of bubbles.

Owen: Since when?

Jackie: Since the night you left. I poured every last drop down the drain.

Owen: S-since the night that--that you sent me away, you mean?

Jackie: Is that how it felt, like I was sending you away?

Owen: Well, you had this idea that I could only be the father that my son needed if I lived with him and his mother.

Jackie: And I still wonder.

Owen: After everything that Bridget just said and after everything I said to you in your office that day?

Jackie: You know, it was all I could d not to just rush into your arms.

Owen: That's what I had hoped for.

Jackie: You know why I couldn't.

Owen: I know why you wanted me to believe that you couldn't.

Jackie: It hadn't been that long.

Owen: To me, it felt like eternity. Jackie, I... I want to be back together with you so badly, but there's something that you need to understand, otherwise this is gonna be the shortest reunion on record.

Jackie: Why do I feel like I am in trouble?

Owen: It's about what you said to me that night. Do you remember? That if I didn't do--

Jackie: No, oh, tha--please, don't--don't--Owen, please--

Owen: Look, Jackie, don't interrupt. This has never been a relationship of equals. You've always worn the pants, and I let you. The cougar and her-- her boy toy. Did I resent it? Hell no. I love that we're unique, that we live by our own set of rules. That's what works for us. But what doesn't work is when you think that you know me better than I know myself. And you send me away because you think that my son needs me more than you do? Like it's one or the other? Well, it's not. And I should have said something that night, but I didn't. And now we've gone months apart. They're months that we can never get back. And that is never going to happen again. I'll tell you what is going to happen. That you're gonna continue wearing the pants, and I will wear the, uh, the Speedos, if you want, and we're gonna keep being outrageous and spontaneous, because that's us at our best. But when it comes to a major decision about us as a couple, we're gonna make that together. You are not going to sacrifice yourself for me, especially when it means sacrificing us.

Jackie: Well, this is a side of you that I haven't seen before, asserting yourself. I'm not used to being spoken to like that by the man I love. It's quite...

Jackie: A turn-on. I-I never, ever wanted it to be over for us.

Owen: It's never gonna be over, because you and I are forever. Jackie and Owen--

Jackie and Owen: "Jowen."

Owen: (Laughs)

Jackie: (Laughs) "Jowen"... forever.

Owen: Forever.

Hope: Don't you check your voicemail?

Liam: Hi.

Hope: I left you a message, like, hours ago. You're not ignoring me, are you?

Liam: Did that feel like I'm ignoring you?

Hope: No.

Liam: What's up?

Hope: Well, what would be the one thing that I could tell you right now that would make you the happiest?

Liam: Uh, probably that Steffy signed the annulment papers, and we can get on with our marriage.

Hope: No. Other than that --

Liam: Other than that. Um... I-I don't know.

Hope: Oh, you so do.

Liam: You-- you're--no--you're not serious?

Hope: Oh, I'm--I'm not?

Liam: (Chuckles)

Hope: God, I could have sworn I was.

Liam: Ho--Hope.

Hope: I don't want to wait anymore. Liam, waiting has been really, really difficult on both of us.

Liam: (Chuckles)

Hope: And enough is enough. Steffy can hold on for another six months if she wants to, but tonight, I am ready to be your wife in every way.

Liam: I... uh...

Hope: (Giggles)

Liam: Wait, wait, wait-- wait a min--wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wha--what about hope for the future?

Hope: What about them? I can--I can go online and explain to them that we are committed to each other. They'll be happy for us. That's not gonna be a problem.

Liam: Okay.

Hope: There aren't going to be any problems for us anymore, because tonight, I am moving in, and I want to give myself to you in every way. I'm tired of waiting. I want to give myself to the man that I love, the man that I will always love. In my heart, tonight is our wedding night.

Hope: (Giggles)
