At the Forrester mansion, Eric angrily tells Ridge he’s not incompetent and needs some respect. Eric does battle with the family and paramedics as he just wants to go upstairs. Ridge and the paramedics take him up, and Brooke flips out on Katie and Bill. “My God! I can’t believe what you’ve done!”

Donna intervenes as Bill argues with Brooke that Eric made this decision himself. Brooke accuses Katie and Bill of pushing Eric like their own personal workhorse. “I’m not going to let it continue!” she declares. Also, she’ll be confiscating those designs. Kidding, but you know she’s thinking it.

Brooke and Katie decide they need to go at it alone and send Bill and Donna on their way. Brooke kicks things off by accusing her sister all over again. Dramatic as ever, she fumes, “You practically ran Eric into the ground!”

Upstairs, the paramedics clear Eric, who lays down the law with Ridge again. His son insists he never meant to push him away. Really? What did he think would happen when he retired him against his will?

Fueling the Fire

At Forrester, Electra wishes Ivy was wrong about what she saw. Ivy, of course, doubles down on the improper evening between Dylan and Will and helpfully points out that this isn’t the first time Will’s let her down. Drink! Ivy says what she saw that night was “inappropriate,” and that Will asking Dylan to move back in is “appalling.”

At the beach house, Dylan gushes to Will about how grateful she is to him. She can see that he misses Electra. Will blames Ivy, who had no right to kick her out of his home. Dylan’s hurt that Electra doesn’t trust them. Will grunts, “Yeah, me too.”

Later, Dylan watches Will through the window before rejoining him to ask if he’s heard from Electra. He hasn’t. They go over him helping her and, this time, she thanks him with a hug.

Back at Forrester, Ivy’s moved on to calling Dylan “brazen” for flaunting her body everywhere and painting herself as a victim. Electra agrees with an, “Ugh,” before heading to the showroom, where Will appears and says he’s missed her.

The Final Scenes

In the showroom, Electra misses Will too. Yeah, we still don’t think this is going to go well. Ivy appears and lurks as he accuses her aunt of making things difficult in their relationship. Electra snips, “Is Dylan still at your house?” Will deflects, but Electra reissues her ultimatum. “It is Dylan or me.”

At the Forrester mansion, Katie defends herself as Brooke hurls accusations that she used Eric and stole him from Forrester. Katie jabs that she couldn’t steal him… he didn’t work there anymore thanks to Ridge. Brooke decides this is all about Katie trying to get out of her shadow and informs her sister, “Eric is no longer your designer.”

Upstairs, Ridge is seemingly no longer concerned about designing causing Eric stress as he asks him to come back to work at Forrester. He wants those designs too!
