Dylan living in the guest house. At that very moment, Electra is setting boundaries with the girl at Forrester. She can never have dinner alone with Will again!

At the beach house, Katie goes on about how proud she is of Will for taking Dylan in. Will marvels that her car was full of stuff… it was clear she was living in her backseat. Dylan is one of Electra’s closest friends and he had to help her out.

Over at Forrester, Dylan keeps thanking Electra for believing in her. Electra tells her she and Ivy are going on a business trip to San Francisco for a few days.

Deacon meets with Taylor at the cliff house and she tells him his daughter came to speak with her. Deacon chuckles… her daughter came to speak with him. At that very moment at Forrester, Steffy is confronting Hope. “Why are you encouraging my mom to be with your father?!”

At the cliff house, Taylor explains that Hope seems to think something is going on between them. Deacon admits he told her that maybe she’s not wrong. Hope wants him to end her marriage.

Taylor admits her daughter can come on a little too strong. Deacon admires her desire to protect her. He worries about her too.

Back at Forrester, Hope asks Steffy if it would really be so terrible if Taylor and Deacon got together. Steffy reminds her that he’s Sheila’s Husband™. The weird attraction needs to end before it’s too late. She needs to protect her mom from Sheila!

Hope insists her dad wouldn’t let anything happen to Taylor. Steffy laughs… no one can stop her from doing what she wants to do. “This can’t happen.” Hope understands she doesn’t want this to happen, but their parents deserve to be happy! “My dad is a good man. Maybe they could help each other heal.” Steffy says he can’t be with her mom.

The Final Scenes
At Forrester, Steffy advises Hope to help Deacon find a good divorce lawyer and get him on the dating apps… just leave her mother out of it. She admits that Deacon’s come a long way, but that’s beside the point. They both know what Sheila’s capable of. He made his bed, with Sheila, and now he has to sleep in it… with her eight toes.

At the cliff house, Taylor tells Deacon he doesn’t have to worry about her. He knows she’s an independent woman; it’s one of the things he finds so sexy about her, but Steffy has a point about Sheila. He asks, “What if you stopped billing me and we just met somewhere like this for lunch.” It could be an extremely hot date. Taylor warns, “Deacon…”
