Brooke and Thorne Episode 1.08
“Guess Who is back?”
Original Postdate: May 5, 2000Introduction:
Hello every one!
This episode of Brooke
and Thorne is very special to me. Few of the current characters are involved
in the story line.
This episode is mainly
about Brooke and Thorne.
As you know they left
L.A. and are now on vacations. If you click on the underlined words you will
see a picture of the location mentioned. To go back to the show, you just have
to hit the button “back” of your browser. I myself took the pictures during
several trip I made.
Next week we will
be back to the regular show.
I hope you will enjoy
this episode!
And now Guess who
is back?
[SCENE: Eric’s office. Eric and Ridge are looking at some drawings]
RIDGE: The models should be there any minute now…
ERIC: How many are already ready?
RIDGE: We only have half of the collection…
ERIC: What? But all the designs are finished!
RIDGE: We are having problems downstairs. Since Thorne’s left, it looks like chaos.
ERIC: Do you have any ideas where he is?
RIDGE: I haven’t seen him since the day…
ERIC: … since Brooke came back…
[SCENE: A bedroom with a large bed in the middle of it.
There are two large windows on each side. The view is beautiful.
Brooke is asleep in the bed. She has a white negligé on. She seems peaceful.
Thorne is sitting on the edge of the bed... looking her sleeping. It seems that he's been doing that for a while. He gently strokes her face with his hand.]
THORNE to himself: You are so beautiful. I can't believe that I am that lucky to have you in my life... [pause. He smiles at her and stands up] I'll make sure to never let you go.
CREDITS
[SCENE: Brooke is waking up... She hears the sound of water falling coming from the bathroom... She smiles... She starts to get up and notices a rose on the bed next to her. She takes it and smells it. She goes to the bathroom door and opens it. Thorne, hearing the door, push the curtain of the shower a bit away to see Brooke.]
THORNE [still under the shower]: Good morning honey. Did you sleep well?
BROOKE [playing with the rose]: I dreamt of you...
THORNE [smiling]: oh yeah? ... [teasing] Do you want to join me?
BROOKE [coming inside the bathroom]: I thought you would never ask.
[We see Brooke's négligé falling on the floor. Then the rose falling on it. We see Brooke's feet entering the shower. And finally there is a close up on Brooke and Thorne's faces, really close from one another.]
THORNE: I watched you sleep this morning...
BROOKE: You did? [laughing] and did you like what you saw?
THORNE [kissing her softly]: I saw an angel... my angel...
BROOKE [teasing]: hmmm... some would say a demon...
THORNE [laughing]: yeahhhh... but you know what the important part in all this is?
BROOKE: Noooo... what?
THORNE [in a whisper]: Demon or angel… You are mine...
[Brooke tenderly smiles and they kiss passionately]
[SCENE: Eric’s office at F.C. Eric and Ridge.]
Eric: They seemed to have disappeared since that day in Connor’s office. [angry] I just can’t believe how they all dared do that to us!
RIDGE: Dad!
ERIC: Come on Ridge! You are not going to excuse them, are you?
RIDGE: No Dad… But as long as we don’t know what really happened, we shouldn’t…
ERIC: Stop Ridge! My children lied to me, my ex-wife lied to me! That’s all I see.
RIDGE: I’m not sure this was all a lie.
ERIC: What do you mean? Have you been able to talk to one of them.
RIDGE: Not really. But after we all left Connor’s office, I came back.
ERIC: and what did they say?
RIDGE: nothing. But Brooke looked… I don’t know… really tired. The truth Dad is that she seemed rather weak and Thorne and the other guy who was there were helping her to stand up and walk…
ERIC[thinking]: I know this man… He is Stephanie’s new doctor.
RIDGE: WHAT?
ERIC: Yes, I didn’t realize that until you mentioned him. And I’m sure that Stephanie didn’t even notice he was there.
[Eric picks up the phone and begins to dial.]
RIDGE: What are you doing?ERIC: I’m going to join this doctor. I want to know what really happened.
[Ridge nods in agreement.]
[Cut to a restaurant room obviously on a boat. Near a window from where we can see a temple, Egyptian style, Brooke, Thorne and Bridget are sitting at a table, having lunch.]
BRIDGET: will you visit Kom Ombo’s temple this afternoon with me?THORNE: Of course Bridget! Did you like Esna’s visit the other day? I thought that was a really small temple compared to what we saw in Luxor…
BRIDGET: I had no idea Egypt would be like this! I mean all these temples… they are so huge! And the guide said they were made like centuries ago!
BROOKE : And did you hear what she also said? The Ancient Egyptians were also great chemists. They invented many of the products we now use as make up…
BRIDGET: I know! This is all so exciting! And I couldn’t believe how small King Tut’s tomb was when we visited it in the Valley of the Kings… How could there be so many treasures in a place that is almost as small as my bedroom!… [they laugh] Anyway… [She gets up and quickly hugs Thorne] Thank you Thorne for taking us on this trip!
THORNE: Your welcome sweetie… Where are you going now?
BROOKE: probably check the books she bought before the visit…
BRIDGET: Are you kidding Mom? No way I would stay inside with a sun like this… I’m going to the swimming pool!
BROOKE: all right then… I may join you in a moment…
[Bridget leaves. Brooke and Thorne look at each other.]
THORNE: ok, Brooke. Tell me what’s wrong.
BROOKE: What do you mean?
THORNE: I can see that you look concerned.
BROOKE: You know me so well that it begins to scare me you know?
THORNE [smiling]: I’m just paying attention… that’s all… now tell me: what bothers you?
BROOKE: it’s Bridget. I know that we still have one week of vacation left but I wonder what to do next.
THORNE: I don’t understand.
BROOKE: Well Bridget should go back to school in Switzerland after this trip. She should not ruin her whole school year just because she is worried about me.
THORNE: I agree with you. But I’m not sure Bridget will…
BROOKE: We have to make sure she will, Thorne… We have to…
THORNE: What about asking her if she wants to go back to her previous high school in L.A.?
BROOKE: I’m not sure this is the best solution. I don’t like the idea of making her change her whole work environment.
THORNE: You know what? Let’s her make her own decision. You might be surprised. Your daughter is quite mature for her age.
BROOKE: I hope you are right…
NON COMMERCIAL BREAK 1
Among all the B&B sites on the web, one is really special to me.
It is Joanne’s B&B Australian Fan Page
There are so many things on B&B history! And the Brooke and Thorne pics chosen by Joanne are really wonderful. So romantic!!!! Especially the ones from the B&B shooting in Venice!
There also is a board where many Australian fans post.
Joanne’s site is great and Joanne herself is a wonderful person! I hope you’ll enjoy her site as much as I did!
[SCENE: Eric and Ridge in Eric’s office. Eric is still on the phone and is writing something down. Then he puts the phone down and turns to Ridge.]
RIDGE: So?
ERIC [looking rather stunned]: He wasn’t there. His secretary gave me his personal address and phone number.
RIDGE: Something is wrong Dad?
ERIC [handing him the paper]: Take a look at the address…
RIDGE [looking then rather surprised]: But that’s…
ERIC: yes. It’s Sheila’s address.
RIDGE: That must be a coincidence… Just a coincidence.
ERIC: May be but I’m going to find out.
RIDGE: Dad. Why don’t you wait. We have a lot of work to do here.
ERIC: You are right. If only Thorne or Brooke wanted to show up and help a little… I mean: Brooke is the C.E.O. … She claimed it enough. This is also her children’s company after all.
RIDGE: I wonder where they are… Did you try to phone them at Brooke’s?
ERIC: Yes and no one was there. I also tried at Thorne’s but he wasn’t there either.
TAYLOR [entering the room]: I know where they are.
[Ridge and Eric look at her… surprised.]
[SCENE: Sheila’s house. Jack is sitting on the couch. He is looking at a fashion magazine. We can see the headlines: Winter 2000/2001 Collections revealed next week.]
JACK [turning the pages and speaking out loud to a person in another room]: Do you think either of them will make it in time? I mean after all what happened in the Forrester family, I’m not sure they even realized that it was fashion show time… And Brooke and Thorne aren’t even there. And for the Spectras… Well [laughing] they are always broke… I wouldn’t miss their shows for anything in the world! This is going to be real fun! ….
[a little girl, around 2 or 3, walks in by the kitchen door. Jack sees her, stands up and takes her into his arms and sits her with him on the coach]
JACK: Look who is there? My favourite niece! How are you doing little Mary? What is your mother doing in the kitchen?
SHEILA [entering from the same door]: preparing some cookies. So what were you saying about the Forresters?
[SCENE: Sheila and Jack are in the living-room. Mary is not with them]
SHEILA: Mary was tired, I had to put her to bed.
JACK: Now tell me little Sis… What is your plan now that you are in L.A.?
SHEILA: What are you talking about? I just came to visit my half bother.
JACK: And why did you make me rent this particular house then?
SHEILA: It’s just that I thought that Mary would prefer live here – in a place she already knows.
JACK: Sheila, I know you have something else in mind. You should tell me… I could help you, you know.
SHEILA: Help me doing what? Take my revenge on Stephanie Forrester? What could you do? Give her poison instead of medicine? I’ve already tried and it didn’t work.
JACK: Don’t underestimate me. Beside, if you want to do anything against Stephanie, you should act fast.
SHEILA [surprised]: Why? Is she leaving town?
JACK: No but Brooke Logan might do it before you… Perhaps you two should join forces…
SHEILA: Jack! Nobody has to know that I am back!
JACK: All right all right may be this was not a good idea… I’m going to check if Mary is all right…
[Jack leaves and lets Sheila all alone in the living room]
[SCENE: Thorne is in a very large bright shop. A man behind a desk is showing him a diamond ring.]
THORNE: I’m not sure. This one is too… spectacular. This is too much.
The man: I’m not sure I understand Sir. Do you mean it is too expensive?
THORNE: Not at all. I don’t mind the price… [the man has a wide smile]… I just want it to be simple, sober and just beautiful because of what it symbolizes and not because there is a huge rock on it.
The man: You are here in the finest place in Aswan Sir. I’m sure we are going to find the perfect ring for your future fiancée. Do you have one of her ring to make the one you’ll choose at the right size?
THORNE [getting the ring from one of his pockets]: Yes here it is. How long do you think it will take?
The man: If you choose the ring now, I think it could be ready tomorrow morning.
THORNE: That could be a problem: we are spending the day at Abu Simbel but tomorrow morning we will visit Philae and in the afternoon we will have to take a flight for Cairo.
The man: Well, if you insist, I could make it ready for this evening. I’ll bring it myself to the boat.
THORNE: Thank you so much. This is really important for me to have it before we arrive in Cairo.
The man: Oh I see, you want to propose in front of the pyramids in Guizeh.
THORNE: Does that sound too much of a cliché?
The man, embarrassed: Well… hum…
THORNE [disappointed]: I knew it! Per chance… Don’t you have any idea of something more romantic and untypical?
The man [thinking]: I’m sorry sir… I don’t see anything that would look like a cliché. You could propose in the sarcophagus chamber of Keops, the highest pyramid… but you’ll have to pay the guards to stop the visitors for a few minutes… or you could propose in front of the Sphinx…
THORNE: I like the idea of the pyramid. But that still does not sound original.
The man: May I ask where you are heading next Sir?
THORNE: After Cairo, we will be on a boat until we arrive in Luxor again. We will be in Middle Egypt for a week.
The man: then I suggest that you propose during that cruise. There are too many tourists in Cairo. But almost no one ever visit this part of the country. You will often be the only group of tourists when visiting the temples and tombs. May be you should consider proposing in a place like Denderah…
THORNE: That might be a good idea… I’ll think about it… Now let’s take a look at the rings…
[Cut to Eric’s office. Ridge and Eric are looking at Taylor with surprised look on their face.]
RIDGE: You know where Brooke and Thorne are and you didn’t tell me?
TAYLOR: You didn’t ask. Beside, you’ve hardly talked to me since that day in Connor’s office.
ERIC: That is not the point Taylor. Are you going to tell us where they are.
TAYLOR: They are on a cruise… In Egypt.
Both ERIC and RIDGE: WHAT?????
TAYLOR: They should be back in a week or two. Bridget is with them.
RIDGE: How do you know???
TAYLOR: I phoned Thorne the other day. I wanted to know how Brooke was doing.
ERIC: How she was doing? What do you mean? And first what is your role in all this?
TAYLOR: My role? What do you mean?
ERIC: Come on Taylor! You left Thorne and Macy’s wedding to find Brooke. You were there at the hospital. So I guess you knew that Brooke was alive and you didn’t tell us. How could you?
TAYLOR: Listen to me Eric. Yes I knew Brooke was alive and yes I didn’t tell you. But this what not my choice. Thorne made me swear not to tell. He wanted to protect Brooke.
RIDGE: Protect her from what?
TAYLOR: from you two! … at least until she would be able to deal with you. Brooke did try to commit suicide. But she survived. And now Thorne will do anything to protect her from you.
ERIC [with a guilty look on his face]: that explains everything… I’m not sure Rick and Bridget will ever forgive me for that. I must make them understand that I did what I thought was right for Thorne…
[SCENE: Night, Brooke and Thorne’s cabin. Brooke is closing the curtains while Thorne, resting on the bed, watches her with a smile. Brooke turns and joins him on the bed. He holds her close.]
THORNE: So what are we doing tonight?
BROOKE: First we should go to the restaurant and have dinner, don’t you think?
THORNE: Right. And next? Do you want to visit the city by night?
BROOKE: No, I’m a little tired today. This trip to Abu Simbel was exhausting.
THORNE: Yes. But it was so beautiful…
BROOKE: It was terrific… thanks to you…
THORNE: to me?
BROOKE: Yes. Everything is beautiful to me when you are by my side…
THORNE [kissing her on the cheek and putting his arms around her waist]: this is the sweetest thing any one could ever say to me…
BROOKE [teasing]: Oh yeah? And what about: “Thorne, you’ve been adopted”?
THORNE [getting up with a sad look on his face]: This is not funny Brooke.
BROOKE [standing up too and taking his hand]: I’m sorry… I shouldn’t have… I’ve ruined everything now. [Thorne still looks sad]. Listen, let me try to make up for this. Go to the restaurant with Bridget. I’ll get dressed and I’ll join you. I promise from tonight, it only will be us. I won’t mention your family ever again.
THORNE [nodding]: all right… [kissing her on her hair] I’ll see you at the restaurant.
[Thorne leaves. Brooke grabs her purse and takes her cel phone. She begins to dial…]
[Cut to a corridor, Thorne is walking when a waiter stops him.]
WAITER: Mr Forrester. There is a man here to see you.
THORNE: A man?… [suddenly remembering] Oh right!
WAITER: he is waiting for you in the hall…[Cut to the bedroom. Brooke is on the phone]
BROOKE: Connor, I know Victor said no to our offer. But we must find a way to make him understand that it is a fair offer.
Voice of Connor on the phone: Brooke… May be you should reconsider your plan.
BROOKE: don’t tell me you are trying to make me change my mind. You know that won’t work with me…
[Cut to Thorne in the hall, examining the ring with the man from the shop]
THORNE: It is just perfect… Thank you for doing this so fast… I am really grateful.
The man: My pleasure Sir… If I may…
THORNE: Yes?
The man: I have been thinking about the different locations we discussed this morning.
THORNE [hopeful]: and did you think of something else?
The man: May be. You said you were going to the isle of Philae tomorrow morning right?
THORNE: That’s true but I’m afraid there will be a lot of tourists there…
The man: there is a solution for you to be all alone during the visit… You know, the isle is a particularly strong symbol of the mythology of the Ancient Gods… And it is a beautiful place…
THORNE: all right, you convinced me. Now tell me… how can Brooke and I be alone in the middle of the crowd?
[SCENE: Sheila’s house. Sheila is all alone in the middle of the living room]
SHEILA [to herself]: Nobody has to know… But Jack may have something here… And that wouldn’t be the first I time I do it… Brooke deserves to get a revenge more than I do… and even if she must never know it: I’ll do my best to help her… This time Stephanie, you are going to pay! I swear it: you are going to pay!
[Cut to Jack listening to Sheila from the door.]
[Cut to the bedroom. Brooke is still on the phone]
BROOKE: You don’t understand Connor! We have to make him sign this contract. I won’t take no for an answer! Do you hear me?
[Cut to Thorne opening the door and hearing Brooke last sentence]
THORNE [to himself, smiling]: That’s Brooke… She can’t be on vacation without thinking about work…
[Cut to Brooke inside the room]
BROOKE: Connor! This is important for me. These negotiations with Victor are my only way to get even with the Forresters. I won’t let them get away so easily after all they’ve done to me! [She turns while talking and suddenly sees Thorne looking tense by the door] Thorne???… [to Connor] Connor, I’ll call you back. Good bye.
[Brooke puts the phone back in her purse.]
BROOKE: Thorne? Have you been standing there for long?
THORNE: Long enough. [closing the door] Brooke. I thought we were through this. But I was wrong… obviously.
BROOKE: Thorne. I’m so sorry.
THORNE: Sorry about what Brooke? To have lied to me or to have been caught?
BROOKE: I didn’t lie to you… I just…
THORNE: … forgot to tell me about your plan.
BROOKE: I didn’t want to upset you. I knew you wouldn’t understand.
THORNE: How would you know… you didn’t even let me a chance.
BROOKE [taking his arm]: Come on Thorne. Let’s go to the dinning room. Bridget must be waiting for us. We’ll talk about this… but later… Now Thorne… please.
THORNE [sitting on the bed and holding his head in his hands]: no. You go find Bridget. I need to stay all alone.
BROOKE: No… Thorne, please…
THORNE [with a broken voice]: go, Brooke…
[Brooke goes to Thorne. She puts her hand on his shoulder. But he does not move. She leaves the room.]
THORNE [to himself]: ok Thorne. Just calm down. Don’t make such a big a deal about this. I knew that it was too easy. I should have known better: Brooke is not the kind of woman to let anyone hurt her and get away with it… But still… She could have told me… Why doesn’t she trust me?
NON COMMERCIAL BREAK 2
Here is “my 2 cents” section on soaps:
[SCENE: the swimming-pool. Around it, some tables and the bar. There is no light but the ones inside the pool. There is no one but Thorne, sitting at the bar. The night is dark but there are more stars in this sky than Thorne’s ever seen. There is the sound of high heels but Thorne does not turn.]
BROOKE [putting her arms around him]: Thorne? I know that nothing I will say can possibly excuse what I did. So I won’t say once again that I am sorry. Because you know that it is true. And even if I love you and would do anything for you, you must understand that if I hid this, it was because I didn’t want to make you choose between your family and me.
THORNE [still not moving but not pushing Brooke away]: You didn’t want to hurt me. But you did Brooke… I don’t know what to do to earn your trust. I would like you to be able to tell me everything without fearing my reaction.
[Brooke holds Thorne tighter and silently begins to cries. He does not notice and glares at the Nile.]
BROOKE: Thorne. You know how I am. This is not a surprise for you. I know that they are your family but they hurt me… more than I have ever been hurt… I don’t know how to ease the pain and the anger they provoked. May be this is childish, may be this is wrong. But I need to get even.
[Thorne turns to face Brooke. He sees her tears and dries them with his hand. He takes her in his arms and slowly bend his head to murmur in her ear.]
THORNE: I only ask one thing Brooke. Promise me you will never hide anything from me. Ever.
BROOKE: I promise.
THORNE: I love you.
BROOKE: I love you too.
[They kiss. And Brooke dries herself her tears with a tissue. She smiles.]
BROOKE: This is the last time you’ll ever see Brooke Logan cry. Nothing and no one can hurt me from now on.
THORNE [laughing]: Oh! Watch out world, Brooke Logan is back.
BROOKE: The world can wait… What about a skinny dip in the pool right now?
THORNE: Oh Ms Logan, I don’t know… You are my boss after all…
BROOKE: Are you going to sue me for sexual harassment?
THORNE [slowly unbuttoning Brooke’s shirt]: Hell no… [instead of undressing her, he puts one arm around her waist and with the other under her knees he makes her feet leave the ground]. But you know what? You ruined all the romantic plans I had for us tonight. So you deserved to be punished for that.
BROOKE: Oooh! I’m scared. What are you going to do? Throw me in the pool?
THORNE: Exactly.
[and he lets her fall in the swimming pool all dressed. Then he puts his shoes off and begins to unbutton his shirt while kneeling to talk to Brooke.]
THORNE: So honey. How is the water?
BROOKE: Why don’t you try it yourself?
THORNE: let me undress first.
BROOKE [swimming near him]: Give me a kiss while I wait then…
THORNE [bending to kiss her]: all right!
[They kiss and Brooke grabs his shoulder and makes him fall in the pool too]
BROOKE: Got’cha!
THORNE: yeah yeah… You got me…
[They laugh and kiss.]
BROOKE [teasing]: Now Mr Smart Guy… Now that we both have all our clothes wet and that we have no towel… how are we supposed to go back to our cabin?
THORNE [thinking]: Well we can still sleep on one of the long chairs by moon light…
BROOKE: and get a cold?
THORNE: yes… but think how romantic it will be… you and I trying to warm each other under the moon and the stars…
BROOKE: Sounds like a good idea finally… Let’s get out of the pool right away…
[SCENE: Eric’s office. Eric, Ridge and Taylor.]
TAYLOR: I know you miss your children Eric, but you must let them a little time.
RIDGE [letting himself fall in a chair]: I can not believe Brooke would go so far. [looking at Taylor] She really loves Thorne, doesn’t she?
TAYLOR [sweetly]: Yes she does. And he loves her too.
RIDGE: Oh gosh! What have I done??? I almost killed my best friend!
ERIC: this is not your fault Ridge. I made you do this.
TAYLOR: It won’t help anybody to find who’s to blame. But listen to me. In a few days, Brooke, Thorne and Bridget will be back. I think that leaves you enough time to think of a way to make them understand that you care for them. They need you. And if you don’t do something soon , you might loose them forever.
[SCENE: early morning. An isle on the Nile. The temple of Philae. One of the pylons. The view from the top of it is marvellous. In the large entrance of the temple we see Bridget looking up to the top of the pylon and waving to the two silhouettes there. There is a close up to them: it’s Brooke and Thorne. They wave back at Bridget and look at the view.]
BROOKE: This is wonderful. This country never ceases to amaze me… Are we supposed to be there?
THORNE [smiling]: no. But I paid the guard to let us climb here.
BROOKE: That was a brilliant idea. [She kisses him]
THORNE: What was that for?
BROOKE: Do I need a reason to kiss the man I love?
THORNE: No. [He kisses her]
BROOKE: And what was THAT for?
THORNE: Do I need a reason to…
BROOKE [interrupting him and laughing]: ok ok…
[They are now in each other’s arms. It seems that the warm sun makes a halo around them. The Nile around the island seems to be made of lapis lazuli and silver with the sun reflecting in its waters. Bridget’s tourists group is now inside the temple so it seems totally empty. Everything is quiet. There is this feeling that what they are seeing, some one saw it centuries ago. And nothing had changed. As if in this place, the time had stopped… They kiss one more time. And Brooke turns to see the view. Thorne keeps his arms around her. Slowly his arms go down and finally he holds her hands in his. Brooke is still not facing him. He kisses her on the neck and gently puts the ring on Brooke’s finger. Brooke silently looks at it while Thorne starts whispering in her ear.]
THORNE: There are no words to describe how much I love you and how much you mean to me. So I won’t say anything. I just want this perfect moment to last forever so I am asking you, Brooke Logan, will you be my wife?
[Brooke turns to face Thorne. She looks at him and they seem to lost themselves in each other’s eyes. She gently smiles and he strokes her face with his hand.]
BROOKE: Yes Thorne. I will be your wife. [she looks at the ring] I just can’t imagine one second of my life without you… [Thorne takes her hand with the ring and kisses it] I love you Thorne.
[They kiss.]
