As Dylan Makes Herself at Home, Katie Kicks Brooke Out, Vowing, ‘The Days of the Sweet Little Sister Are Over!’

As the episode begins, Brooke and Katie are still at Spencer bickering over the Logan trademark and then some. “You took my husband. You took my man,” Katie notes, “so why not take my name, too?” At Forrester, Bill shows up to gloat to Ridge and Carter that they were outwitted. And at the beach house, Electra reiterates that she and Will refuse to let Dylan spend another night in her car.

Dylan Is Overwhelmed by Electra and Will’s Kindness

After the opening credits, Dylan expresses her delight that she’ll again have a shower and a bedroom. But is it just me, or did she look at Will a little too long? Anyway, instead of move Dylan in, the trio leave her stuff in her car and repeat their PSA. For some reason, Dylan never even considered the possibility of crashing with a friend.

Later, Dylan says that she wants to pitch in to help earn her keep around the house. When she goes for a walk on the beach, Will finds the silver lining in Dylan’s sitch: It means that Electra will be sleeping over more (once she gets Ivy’s OK… which is odd, because isn’t Electra a consenting adult?).

Bill and Ridge Butt Heads

At Forrester, Carter suggests that Bill could’ve avoided this mess by nudging Katie toward a different name for her fashion house. Bill shrugs that all families squabble, it’s no biggie in the end. Ridge doubts that his wife and onetime fiancée will be burying the hatchet anytime soon.

Before exiting, Carter threatens to find out if Bill pulled a fast one to obtain the trademark. But of course the only fast thing about it was Liam’s typing. Alone with Bill, Ridge accuses Katie of backstabbing Brooke. Ridge even calls upon his nemesis to find a way to end this.

Katie will be overwhelmed the day-to-day demands of a fashion house, Ridge adds. Unfazed, Bill insists that she will rise to the challenge, leading to Ridge actually admitting his enemy’s faith in his wife is very nice. With that, they almost part on a friendly note. Almost.

Ridge calls Bill back in before he leaves to remind him of the sibs’ history. Bill isn’t worried that the past will impact the future. If it does, though, he’s sure Katie will use it to fire her up for her new venture.

Katie Plays the ‘You Stole My Man’ Card… a Lot

At the same time, Katie is at Spencer rehashing Brooke’s illicit relationship with Bill. “You undermined my marriage,” Katie says, “and now you’re undermining my fashion company. I can’t believe you’re treating me this way.” Uh, have you met your sister, Katie?

Brooke refuses to take the blame for what happened between her and Bill, prompting Katie to say that actions have consequences and accuse her sister of “targeting” her husband. Not sure that’s exactly the way it happened, but…

Regardless, Katie is steamed. She won’t let Brooke walk all over her ever again. Katie is so excited about her company and wanted Brooke to want it for her. Since she can’t do that, Katie warns, “You sure as hell better not stand in my way.”

 

Through Tears, Katie Gets the Last Word In

Brooke won’t let Katie steal the fruits of her labor. Katie can’t believe she won’t share her name with the sister she claims to love. From there, Katie harps on Brooke wrecking her marriage some more. In the years after, “I got my dignity back. I got Bill back,” Katie says. “I got my self-respect.” She also got engaged to Ridge, but I guess we’re not gonna remember that today. “I can stand on my own two feet,” Katie says, “and have a fashion house that’s gonna be a major success.”

With that, Katie shows Brooke the door. “You’re not welcome here anymore.” Brooke thinks she’s getting the last word when she tells Katie, “I love you,” but Katie has two more of her own to say: “Get… out.”

Dylan Eyes Will and Electra

In the episode’s final moments, Will “laments” the fact that he has to share his new beach house with two women. (This is one step away from becoming a salacious reality show!) Electra has something for her beau… a necklace with “WE” on it for their names. As they embrace, Dylan watches, smiling, through the window. But is it a sweet smile… or too sweet?

At Forrester, Brooke does some recapping, and she and Ridge agree that Katie is making a huge misstep naming her company Logan. Ridge reminds Brooke that Bill always steals from them; they need to be on guard.

She Is Katie, Hear Her Roar!

At Spencer, Bill reassures Katie that nothing and no one will stand in her way. Logan is going to be a huge success, all because of her. Step No. 1: putting together the most creative design team. (Hey, Deke.) “The days of the quiet, sweet little sister are over,” Katie declares. “Brooke and Ridge and the entire fashion world are gonna hear Katie Logan Spencer roar.” Bring it!
