Brooke and Thorne Episode 1.05
"When Brooke meets Victor"

 

Original Postdate: January 17, 2000.
Written by Alexandra a.k.a. Thornesfan and N.J. a.k.a. MST3K .
Brooke and Thorne is intended as an original story based on characters created by Bill Bell, appearing in the CBS soap-opera the Bold and the Beautiful. This script is not intended as a derivative work thereof and may not be reproduced for commercial usage without the express written consent of the owner of this site.



Introduction: Well this is it. Brooke’s first plan is about to begin and I’m sure you all wonder what it is… All I can tell you is that Stephanie is causing her own fall… and she doesn’t know it…

This is a rather long episode. We could have chosen to divide it into two parts: the cross-over with Y&R and Brooke’s revenge but we decided not to delay too much the schedule.

Many many things happen during “When Brooke meets Victor”. Even if the cross-over part doesn’t last long regarding other parts of the plots, it will have an important influence on the rest of the season.

One character is back from the past and eventually will come back episodically…

Episodes after episodes the scripts get longer and longer… mostly because we want to make it all sound credible and we try to avoid the easy tricks to tell a story in half an hour. That is why this is so great to write an Internet Soap, we are not limited by time nor space…

We have every week more and more story lines to write and as we can’t spend all our time on it (Yes! We have a life outside B&B and Brooke and Thorne) we would like to welcome new writers who would be in charge of certain characters. You won’t get paid (hey we don’t make money from this, so why would you???) but you’ll have fame and glory… hum… may be…

Enjoy this episode
And now... “When Brooke meets Victor”

 


 

[Ridge and Taylor’s. Ridge, Eric and Taylor are continuing their talk from the previous episode]

 

ERIC: I don't blame Bridget for holding me responsible for her mother's death, it was all my fault.

 

RIDGE: Hey, I share some of that blame too.

 

TAYLOR: No, both of you should stop this.  It's not helping anyone.

 

ERIC: She's right Ridge.

 

TAYLOR: How is Stephanie taking it?

 

ERIC: She is not sad, she says that she cares for the children, but when it comes to Brooke's death, she is like ice.  She is so cold and insensitive.

 

TAYLOR: She might be denying the truth.

 

ERIC: No, Taylor, she never did like Brooke and she is not sad that Brooke is dead.

 

TAYLOR: You are just upset, you don't mean that.  Stephanie and Brooke had problems, but I am certain Stephanie didn't want her dead.

 

ERIC: Stephanie acts as if it doesn't affect her at all.

 

TAYLOR: It does, Stephanie is a strong woman and she is holding up well for the children's sake.  That has to be what it is.

 

ERIC: I hope you are right.  I hope Stephanie does care.

 

TAYLOR: I am sure that she does.

 

 

[Stephanie’s office at Forrester. Stephanie and her lawyer Jonathan.]

 

STEPH.: Thank you Jonathan for coming.

 

JON.: Well you really insisted Stephanie. Are you sure you want to do that RIGHT NOW?

 

STEPH.: Frankly I don’t see why we should wait any longer. This company must come back to our family. It must come back to Eric.

 

JON.: You can’t be sure that’s what will happen. May be Brooke has made another decision.

 

STEPH.: No I don’t think so. She must have let everything to her children… and since they are too young to run the company, Eric, their father, will do it for them.

 

JON.: I agree. This is the most probable solution. But we have to wait to know what is in her will.

 

STEPH.: That’s why I want you to call Brooke’s lawyer and ask him to open the will a.s.a.p. .

 

JON.: As you want. But I still think this is not a good idea. Rick and Bridget haven’t even buried their mother.

 

STEPH.: The sooner will be the better. They won’t have to think about it once it is done.

 

 

[Amber’s house. Becky was with the baby while Amber phoned her mother. Becky walks back into the living room.]

 

BECKY: Who were you on the phone with?

 

AMBER: No one.

 

BECKY: It was Aunt Tawny wasn't it?

 

AMBER: I… Uh…

 

BECKY: So, you had to call her?  What is it with you Amber?  Do you have to get your mother to fight your battles for you?

 

AMBER: Becky, please leave now.  Mom was very angry and I am afraid of what

she might do.

 

BECKY: Then why did you call her??  Why???

 

AMBER: Becky, please leave, please.

 

BECKY: No, Amber!  I am finished with backing down to you and Aunt Tawny. 

It's time for this to stop.

 

 


CREDITS: You know the drill!!!!

 

Soon to come as my internet skills increase: a “real” credit picture… well may be one day…

Not tomorrow… not next week… But one day we’ll have our own credit picture!

 


 

[Stephanie’s office. Stephanie and Jonathan. Jonathan is on the phone]

 

JON.: [on the phone] I know this is too early. But you must understand: the life of the company depends on it. It can’t go on like this with no C.E.O. . Mrs Forrester is really worried… Yes she’s thought of the children. May be we shouldn’t drag this on. That will only hurt them more than necessary… All right… I will tell her… Thank you Connor, I really appreciate this… I’ll wait for your phone call…

 

[Jonathan leaves the desk and sits in a chair]

 

JON: We’ll just have to wait a few hours. Connor said that he will call Thorne and the children to see if they are available this afternoon and if every one can be there, we’ll know rather soon what is in Brooke’s will.

 

STEPH.: Thank you Jonathan… I’m going to try to find Eric to tell him the goo.. hum… the news.

 

 

[Ridge and Taylor’s]

 

RIDGE: So, did you talk to Thorne, dad?

 

ERIC: Yes, and he gave me the cold shoulder.  He said that he didn't need my help for the funeral.

 

RIDGE: So it would be pointless for me to call, wouldn't it?

 

ERIC: It probably would make things worse if Rick or Bridget were to pick up the phone.

 

RIDGE: Yes, I wish there was something we could do for them.

 

ERIC: I think the best thing for us to do is to keep away from them.

 

RIDGE: Yes, I understand completely.

 

TAYLOR: Maybe I could talk with Thorne and the children.

 

RIDGE: I don't think that's a good idea.

 

TAYLOR: I think it is.  I can help them deal with their grief.

 

RIDGE: No, I don't think so.

 

TAYLOR: Ridge, you need to stop treating the children as if they are made of glass.  They won't break.

 

RIDGE: Not today Doc, you could talk to them and help them , but not today.

 

TAYLOR: I'll wait before I go see them.

 

ERIC: I wonder what's going on over there right now??

 

 

[ Brooke’s house.]

 

THORNE: Are you sure you want us to go to the theatre?

 

BROOKE: Don’t worry Thorne. I phoned Megan and told her the truth about what happened. She should be there any minute… I won’t stay all alone.

 

THORNE: I know… it’s just that I don’t like the idea of being far from you.

 

BROOKE: [laughing] It won’t last long! Come on! In two hours you will be back and you will cook all these beautiful vegetables you’ve bought at the market.

 

THORNE: but if we leave now, we’ll have lunch rather late.

 

BROOKE: I know. But I have to meet Connor. After what he told us when he phoned, I have to tell him what our plan is.

 

THORNE: I just can’t understand mother. Sometimes I think that only the company matters to her.

 

BROOKE: [angry] I’m sure she thinks that I’ve let the company to Rick and that Eric will run it until Rick is old enough. She must be so happy. Forrester Creations in Eric’s hands… that’s always been her dream.

 

THORNE: Brooke. You should forget all this. Tomorrow we will leave L.A. . I don’t think you should have so much stress… Listen, I’ll call Connor and tell him to make mother wait. Then when you have totally recovered, we’ll deal with this I promise.

 

BROOKE: No Thorne. I want to do this now. Perhaps even today. And then we’ll leave and we won’t have to think about what will happen once we are back.

 

THORNE: this is not reasonable. Look all you’ve done this morning is clean the table and you are already really tired. You should take care of yourself.

 

BROOKE: I want to “take care” of your mother first.

 

THORNE: Honey you shouldn’t…

 

[He is interrupted by Rick and Bridget running downstairs]

 

BRIDGET: Thorne? Are you ready to go?…

 

 

[Amber’s house. Amber and Becky]

 

AMBER: If you would just live your life in Paris and stay out of mine, we could all be happy.

 

BECKY: Wrong, Amber, wrong!  I am not happy in Paris.  I am very lonely, I miss my son.

 

AMBER: He's my son.

 

BECKY: Because I let you keep him.  But I have decided what I want.

 

AMBER: And what is that?

 

BECKY: I want my baby back. Today!

 

AMBER: Becky, no, you can't have him back.

 

BECKY: Either you give him back to me, or I go straight to the Forresters.

 

AMBER: NO!  You can't do this to me Becky.

 

BECKY: Amber, you and Rick can have your own child.  I want mine.

 

AMBER: And how would I explain that to Rick's family??  How do I explain that you took my child without giving my secret away?

 

BECKY: That's really not my problem.

 

AMBER: I thought we were friends.

 

BECKY: I wanted to be friends, but I need my baby Amber.  I need him now!

 

TAWNY: I don't think so!

 

[Becky and Amber turn to the door to see Tawny standing in the doorway.]

 

 

[Brooke’s house]

 

BRIDGET: Thorne??? Are you ready?

 

THORNE: Well … [looking at Brooke, concerned] I guess so.

 

BRIDGET: Great! It’s been such a long time… There are so many movies I want to see.

 

BROOKE: I thought that when you were in Switzerland you often went to the movies…

 

BRIDGET: [a bit embarrassed] yes, I did… but they were all dubbed in French or in German and … hum… I didn’t understand quite well what they were talking about.

 

RICK: [laughing] so I see… You’ve spent hours looking at images… not really different from what you’re doing here in fact…

 

BRIDGET: Yeah, make fun of me: if that can ease your mind and helps you deal with the fact that you are a total moron!

 

BROOKE: BRIDGET!

 

BRIDGET: But Mom… He looked for it!

 

BROOKE: O.K. you two. That’s enough now. Bridget will go with Thorne see whatever she wants and you Rick you’ll do as planned… You’ll go at your house and see your son.

 

RICK: Well I’ll wait a little before going.

 

BROOKE: [a little surprised] why?

 

RICK: I phoned Stephanie’s house a few minutes ago to see if any one had talked to Amber. I couldn’t get her on the phone… and Helen told me that Becky was there.

 

BROOKE: WHAT? She came back from Paris? What was she doing there?

 

RICK: [thinking] I don’t know. But I’m worried. She has a bad influence on Amber’s mood…

 

 

[Amber’s house. Tawny, Amber and Becky in the living room]

 

TAWNY: Becky, you never will learn will you?

 

[Tawny walks in and slams the door.]

 

BECKY: I have learned Aunt Tawny.  I have grown to learn that I love my baby and I can take care of him.

 

TAWNY: Becky, Little Eric is Amber's baby.

 

BECKY: No, he's mine and I made a huge mistake when I let Amber have him.

 

TAWNY: No, that was the right thing to do.

 

BECKY: I want my baby.  If you give him back to me, I'll go back to Paris and you'll never hear from me again.

 

TAWNY: We can't do that Becky, the baby is staying with his mother.

 

BECKY: No, the baby is going back to Paris with HIS MOTHER!

 

TAWNY: Becky, I am prepared to do whatever it takes to make sure that Amber gets to keep Little Eric.  Whatever it takes.

 

BECKY: Are you threatening me?

 

TAWNY: I am giving you a warning.  Now go back to Paris and don't come back to LA, ever!!

 

BECKY: Fine, I will leave.

 

[Becky heads towards the door and opens it.  She turns to Tawny and Amber.]

 

TAWNY: You are doing the right thing, Becky.

 

BECKY: I know I am.  Now all I have to do is go to the Forresters.  And tell them everything.

 

[Becky starts to leave when Tawny grabs her and pulls her back in.]

 

TAWNY: I tried to give you a chance, now I am going to have to show you how

serious I am.

 

[Tawny shuts the door.]

 

BECKY: Let me go!

 

 

[Brooke’s house. Brooke and Rick, alone]

 

BROOKE: Megan should be here any minute now. Are you sure you don’t want to go to the theatre with your sister?

 

RICK: GOSH NO! I’m sure she’s picked up a “romantic” movie! Yuck! Poor Thorne!

 

BROOKE: [a little annoyed] hum… Look Rick… I didn’t tell you but Connor is supposed to come here too.

 

RICK: Connor? Your lawyer? Is there something wrong?

 

BROOKE: not really but we have to talk about business and that is why Megan will be there too… I don’t want to bother you but may be if you could…

 

RICK: ok mom I get it… You want me to leave… I’ll go to C.J.’s, he must be home from his vacations now.

 

[Rick starts to leave]

 

BROOKE: Rick! Wait! I’m sure C.J. will ask you about me… you know… hum…

 

RICK: [a bit disgusted] Right… So I guess there’s only one thing I can do…

 

BROOKE: What?

 

RICK: movies… pop corn… and back home for lunch.

 

BROOKE: [smiling, makes a sign with the hand asking him to approach and kisses him on the cheek] Have “fun”.

 

 


NON-COMMERCIAL BREAK 1

 This week, Brooke and Thorne is proud to announce the birth of a new B&B site:

Champs Bold and Beautiful Captures

On this marvellous page you will find hot and sexy screen captures of our favourite couple from the current episodes… There also is a link to download or watch videos from the show…

Champs built a great site and really knows how to choose the best pics from each episodes… I still have in mind those from Brooke and Thorne’s hot tub scenes… woaw…

Anyway, this site is a Paradise… especially for non-Americans who have to wait to see the episodes…

 

And don’t forget you give a link to our site, we give one to yours…


[Megan and Brooke sitting around the table, having a cup of tea.]

 

MEGAN: This is incredible! I mean… WOAW! I thought that you were dead and suddenly you give me a phone call… Gosh! I almost had an heart attack!

 

BROOKE: I’m really sorry Megan if we didn’t tell you sooner… So many things happened… and Thorne just wanted me to have some rest…

 

MEGAN: That is why he told everybody you were dead?

 

BROOKE: well I guess he also must have been really angry when he decided not to tell the truth.

 

MEGAN: You know Brooke. Every one at F.C. was really devastated.

 

BROOKE: Oh I’m sure at least one person wasn’t too sorry.

 

MEGAN: you are talking about Stephanie, right?

 

BROOKE: Yes. I intend to get my revenge against her and Eric.

 

MEGAN: so I see. That’s why you asked me all those papers from the company.

 

BROOKE: yes. Connor should be there soon with a guest.

 

MEGAN: A guest?

 

BROOKE: The Great Victor Newman himself…

 

MEGAN: Brooke! You are not going to… to… sell him the company, are you? Tell me it isn’t true.

 

BROOKE: I’m sorry Megan, but I can’t tell you anything about this. Thorne doesn’t even know!

 

MEGAN: You didn’t tell him????

 

BROOKE: No I…

 

[knock on the door]

 

BROOKE: [to Megan] that must be Connor and Victor [louder] Come in!

 

[Connor and Victor enter]

 

 

[The theatre. In the hall, Thorne and Bridget just got their tickets]

 

THORNE: [giving Bridget some money] Can you get us some pop corn and sodas? I have to make a phone call…

 

BRIDGET: How sweet! You want to phone Mom when we’ve just left her…

 

THORNE: [embarrassed] Yes… hum… you are right… [pause] Bridget, may be this afternoon we will have to tell everybody that Brooke is alive.

 

BRIDGET: REALLY????

 

THORNE: I know that it will be difficult for you to see how bad this is going to hurt father.

 

BRIDGET: [sadly] yes I understand… But you know what? Dad doesn’t really need our help… and Mom does. I’ll do anything to… you know… [beginning to cry] I don’t want to loose my mother Thorne!

 

THORNE: [hugging her] You won’t, I promise… I am so sorry. I didn’t realize that it had affected you so much… I’m really sorry… I swear it: your mother is going to be so happy that she will never try again to…

 

BRIDGET: I know you want her to be happy… But still… I’m afraid that one day you’ll leave us… you’ll leave her

 

THORNE: I will never abandon her. I love her so much… I’ve never loved any one so much…

 

BRIDGET: that’s what Ridge said too and you see what happened.

 

THORNE: [looking into Bridget’s eyes] I am NOT Ridge, Bridget.

 

BRIDGET: I know…

 

 

[Brooke’s house. Brooke, Connor and Victor are around the table in the living room. Megan has left]

 

VICTOR: I must say Brooke, that it is the first time a phone call surprises me that much.

 

CONNOR: [staring at Brooke] Frankly Brooke you are the only person in this world that can amaze me like this.

 

BROOKE: This was not my idea Connor. But I admit that it must have been quite a shock for you.

 

CONNOR: well, when Thorne told me “there’s some one here who wants to talk to you” and you spoke to me… I thought I was experiencing a supernatural phenomenon.

 

BROOKE: [laughing] now that you can see me, are you reassured? I am not a ghost!

 

VICTOR: I’m sorry to interrupt this but I don’t have much time you know. I must be back in Genoa City in a few hours.

 

BROOKE: All right Victor. Let’s talk about business then… I intend to make a lot of changes in the company and I need your help to do so.

 

VICTOR: I assume that you want me to by the company and then you’ll get your revenge on the Forresters.

 

BROOKE: I’ll tell you my idea about Forrester Creation’s future and if you agree my terms Connor will prepare the contract.

 

 

[Amber’s House. Tawny lets go of Becky's arms.]

 

TAWNY: Now you listen to me Becky, I am totally serious.  Stay away from Amber and Little Eric, or I'll take care of you.

 

AMBER: Mom, what are you saying?

 

BECKY: You'll take care of me?  I am not scared of you Aunt Tawny, not at all.

 

TAWNY: If you try to see Little Eric again, then I will ruin your life.

 

BECKY: What life? I have no life without my son.

 

TAWNY: HE'S AMBER'S SON!!!!

 

[Becky slaps Tawny across the face.  Tawny stumbles back and is in shock.]

 

TAWNY: You slapped me?

 

BECKY: I'll do more than that if you ever try to keep me away from my son!

 

[Becky leaves slamming the door.]

 

BECKY: It's time for the truth to come out, this has gone on long enough.

 

[Back inside the house, Tawny is holding her hand against her cheek.]

 

AMBER: What if she goes to the Forresters, mom, what am I going to do??

 

TAWNY: She won't go see the Forresters, and if she does we can handle that.  We can take care of both of them.

 

AMBER: How?? You couldn't even handle Becky here.

 

TAWNY: No, because I have another plan.  Something that will keep your place in the Forrester family.

 

 

[The cinema. Thorne is phoning some one while watching Bridget buying some pop corns]

 

THORNE: [on the phone] Dr Bergman for Thorne Forrester… I’ll wait [pause] Jack? Thorne here. I need your help for something… Yes she is fine… but a bit tired in fact. I’m worried… She wants to plan something that might get her too upset and I would like  you to be there just in case… [pause] I don’t know yet… may be this afternoon… I’ll let you know… thank you Jack.

 

 

[Brooke’s house. Brooke, Victor and Connor]

 

VICTOR: I don’t know Brooke. This might sound appealing at first sight but I have to think about it.

 

BROOKE: Come on Victor. This is a really good offer.

 

VICTOR: Without any doubt… But I think your terms will only benefit you and not the company nor me.

 

BROOKE: If you need some time it is ok. I can wait.  But not too long. I plan to leave L.A. for a week or two. When I am back I’ll need your answer.

 

VICTOR: [standing up and shaking Brooke’s hand] All right then. I will let you know what my decision is.

 

BROOKE: I hope we’ll make a deal… [pause] Megan has sent the company’s limousine and chauffeur to drive you to the airport. I was glad to meet you again.

 

VICTOR: I was glad to meet you too Brooke. Especially since I thought you were dead.

 

[Brooke smiles. Victor leaves… Brooke and Connor alone]

 

CONNOR: I don’t think this is going to work Brooke.

 

BROOKE: hum… I think you’re right… That’s why I need a backup plan…

 

CONNOR: Have you decided anything about Stephanie?

 

BROOKE: Yes. Call Stephanie, Eric, Ridge and Taylor and ask them to come to your office this afternoon at three. If that’s fine with you of course…

 

CONNOR: I’ll ask my secretary to postpone some of my appointments… don’t worry.

 

BROOKE: Thank you Connor. I appreciate all that you’ve done for me… Once you’ve called everybody I’ll tell you my plan. Then I hope you’ll stay here and have lunch with us before we prepare everything we need for this afternoon…

 


NON-COMMERCIAL BREAK 2

·         Finally, episode 106 is on its way… The truth is: I’ve changed my mind several times about how it should be and at the present time I still have no idea… continuing the storyline? Parody? Well you’ll find out soon enough J   


 

[All the Forresters are in Connor’s large office. In one corner there are Ridge and Taylor standing. Ridge is staring at his feet and Taylor looks at him worried. Near Connor’s desk in two large seats: Stephanie and Eric sit. Behind Stephanie stands her lawyer Jonathan. Eric from time to time glances back at Rick and Bridget who are silently fighting (pushing each other, hitting each other). He seems rather surprised by their attitude.]

 

RICK: [murmuring so that the others can’t hear him] give me that Pez dispenser back Bridget.

 

BRIDGET: In your dreams! It’s mine!

 

RICK: But I’m hungry!

 

BRIDGET: Well. Blame yourself! You overslept!

 

RICK: That didn’t give you the right to eat MY breakfast. And at the theatre they were short of pop corns… Can you believe this?

 

BRIDGET: You could have bought yourself lunch or choose a shorter movie… You could have had lunch with us.

 

RICK: I totally forgot at what time we were supposed to eat! Now give me some of your candies!

 

BRIDGET: [laughing and speaking a bit too loud] NO! You should have listened to M…

 

THORNE: [entering the office and cutting Bridget] Kids! Quiet please.

 

[Connor and Jack follow him inside the office. Connor has a video tape in the end.]

 

CONNOR: every one, take a seat please.

 

[Every one seats but Jack who stands in the back of the room with Thorne. They give each other a look.

Connor doesn’t sit in his armchair which is not facing the rest of the room. He goes to the television which is on his desk. He puts the tape in the video recorder.]

 

CONNOR: Brooke came to see me two years ago with this tape. This is the video version of her will. She asked me to play it in front of you all. I was not supposed to play it until a few days but Mrs Stephanie Forrester insisted so much that I finally decided to gather you today.

 

[Connor pushes the button “play” and we see Brooke’s face on the screen:]

 

BROOKE on screen: I know that since you are watching this video, this must be terrible times… especially for you Rick and Bridget. I want to tell you how much I love you and how much you mean to me. I hope you know that. There’s nothing I wouldn’t have done for you. And that is why I let everything I own to you two… I know you are too young to run Forrester Creations. That is why I ask you Eric to run the company until Rick or Bridget decide they want to. Eric, all these years you helped me raise our children with love and comprehension and you don’t know how grateful I am.

 

[Eric puts his head in his hands]

 

BROOKE on screen: Ridge. You are the love of my life. I’m sure you will help Eric taking care of Rick and Bridget. I know this isn’t too much to ask since you love them as if they were your own children.

 

[Ridge looks totally destroyed]

 

BROOKE on screen: Stephanie and Taylor. In spite of everything you’ve done to keep me apart from this family, I want to say that I don’t resent you. I need you to be there for my children and I hope that your hate for me won’t interfere with your affection for them. [Pause] That’s all. Rick and Bridget: I love you.

 

[Connor stops the tape. Stephanie stands up, ready to leave and turns to Eric]

 

STEPH: Everything is back in order now. You get the company back. You shouldn’t have lost it anyway.

 

ERIC: Stephanie, please…

 

STEPH: What? Let’s go home and start a new life.

 

ERIC: You mean as if Brooke had never existed?

 

STEPH: You know this is not what I mean. Come on, let’s go.

 

CONNOR: If I were you Stephanie I wouldn’t do that.

 

STEPH: do what?

 

CONNOR: leave now.

 

STEPH: Why not? You’ve heard her will. Eric will run the company. There’s nothing else to add.

 

CONNOR: I’m afraid there IS something else.

 

[all look surprised. Thorne joins Connor by his desk. He puts a hand on the top of the back of the turned seat. In his other hand he is holding a tape recorder.]

 

CONNOR: You see, one month ago, Brooke came here and said she wanted to modify a part of her will. She was rather upset about what you Eric and you Ridge were doing to try to break her and Thorne up. So she said she wanted to add a codicil. We had planned to make a video tape to replace the one you’ve just watched but unfortunately we didn’t have the occasion. But I still have the audio tape we made that day… [to Thorne] Thorne. Would you please…

 

[Thorne pushes the button play and puts the recorder on the desk near the chair.]

 

BROOKE’s voice from the tape: After some recent events I came to the conclusion that I couldn’t trust Eric or Ridge anymore. And so I decide to change my will. I still let everything that I own to my children but I don’t want Eric to run the company for them. So I think that I should give this role to the only person I completely trust…

 

[the voice stops. Every one looks at the tape recorder to see what happened in such a tense moment. They see a thin female hand that had emerged from Connor’s chair behind the desk holding the tape recorder and which just pushed the button “stop”. The chair turns and we see Brooke sitting there. She is pale and serious in a dark suit. Thorne stands behind her, his hand on her shoulder. Every one is stunned. They can’t believe their eyes. Bridget and Rick look at each other and Jack stares at her intensively.]

 

BROOKE: [repeating her last sentence from the tape] the only person I completely trust… [looking at Ridge, Eric and Stephanie] and that is none of you. [sarcastic] I hope that it doesn’t bother you too much that I’ve changed my plans. I decided I was much more happy living than dead. 

 

[There’s a silence then suddenly Stephanie stands up and goes to Brooke]

 

STEPH: YOU! YOU! You are not dead?????? You bitch! How dare you play with us like this? Don’t you have a heart at all?

 

BROOKE: Come on Stephanie… Don’t tell me you were sorry that I was dead! I’m sure it didn’t cause you any pain!

 

[Stephanie tries to slap her but Thorne grabs her arm before she touches her]

 

THORNE: Don’t ever try to do that again! Do you hear me?

 

ERIC: [angrily] How could you do that to us Brooke? I mean not only to me but to your own children…

 

[Rick and Bridget are embarrassed when Eric looks at them]

 

ERIC: WHAT? You knew this was all a lie and you didn’t tell me??? You let me believe I had killed your mother! How could you??? What have I done to you?  For God’s sake I am your father!

 

BROOKE: [firmly] Stop it Eric. You are the only one to blame here. Leave the children alone! [standing up and showing the door] Now please I want you all to leave.

 

ERIC: NO BROOKE! You owe me an explanation! And I won’t leave until you give me one.

 

BROOKE: First: I owe you absolutely nothing, Then: You’ll know everything in time and only if I decide it. Now go!

 

STEPH: [taking Eric’s arm to lead him outside] We’re going Brooke. But I swear it: you are going to pay for this “comedy”.

 

BROOKE: We’ll see later who is going to pay Stephanie.

 

[Jonathan, Eric and Stephanie leave. Taylor stands up]

 

TAYLOR: [to Brooke] I’m glad you are fine Brooke. And I’m glad you finally decided to tell the truth.

 

RIDGE: WHAT? You knew about this??? And you didn’t tell me???

 

TAYLOR: Ridge, I’m really sorry… We should go home now and I’ll explain everything.

 

[Ridge looks totally disorientated but reluctantly follows Taylor outside with giving a last look at Brooke who obviously is looking forward to seeing him leave. The door closes and Brooke lets herself fall in the chair. Jack approaches.]

 

CONNOR: Well Brooke I must admit, you know how to throw a surprise party!

 

THORNE: Connor. This is not funny… [To Rick, giving him car keys] Rick can you get the car the closest you can to the building? I’m going to help your mother walk to it.

 

RICK: Ok. Bridget? You want to come with me?

 

BRIDGET: Alright.

 

[They leave. ]

 

JACK: Brooke. You seem really tired. I shouldn’t have allowed you to do this.

 

BROOKE: I had to. Or Taylor would have told them. I wanted to have it my own way.

 

THORNE: Jack is right. You do seem tired. Let’s go home hon.

 

CONNOR: you think you will be able to walk? I can let you the office if you want to have some rest before leaving.

 

BROOKE: No thank you Connor. You’ve done enough! I really appreciate that you accepted to do that for me.

 

CONNOR: let me know when you plan another surprise like this… I haven’t had so much fun since we won BeLief and half of Forrester Creations.

 

BROOKE: [laughs] I’m sure they’re going to love you even more after this Connor.

 

CONNOR: [sarcastic] It’s justice: I myself love them so much. [bending and kissing her on the cheek] I have to go now. Take care of yourself and don’t let them rule your world!

 

BROOKE: I won’t, I promise.

 

[Connor gets out]

 

 

THORNE: Are you sure Connor is not… hum…

 

BROOKE: [smiling] He is just a friend hon… Did I tell you I just love when you are jealous?

 

THORNE: A thousand times! Do you mind if I lock you in your room and let no man get near you?

 

BROOKE: I wouldn’t mind spending the rest of my life in my room… if you are with me of course.

 

[Jack coughs]

 

JACK: Hum… I’m still there.

 

THORNE: So I see.

 

[Brooke laughs]

 

BROOKE: so guys, will you help me go to the car or should I wait that you two decide which one is the strongest?

 

THORNE: OK. Let’s go. I’ll help you walk to the car and Doc will be there just in case you don’t feel right.

 

JACK: I can help you too if you want.

 

BROOKE: Come on Jack : I am not THAT tired and I don’t weight THAT heavy.

 

JACK: All right. So let’s go.

 

[Brooke stands up with the help of Thorne and Jack then Thorne puts his arm around her waist. Ridge enters. They look surprise to see him. He looks surprise to see that Brooke can’t walk alone].

 

THORNE: Ridge? What are you doing there?

 

RIDGE: [looking at Brooke] I just wanted to say one thing. [pause] Logan, I’m glad you are ok.

 

[He gives a last look at Brooke and leaves the room. Brooke stands there pensively.]

 

THORNE: Brooke? Let’s go home honey…

 

BROOKE: Yes, let’s go home.
