Steffy Gives Sheila Her Answer — Plus, Electra Snaps and Smacks Dylan Before Confronting Will

At Forrester, Dylan scoffs at Electra calling her a bitch and reiterates that she’s in love with Will. They recap the past and Dylan reminds her she never acted on her feelings for Will until Electra walked out on him. “How many times at this point?”

Dylan did all she could to suppress her feelings for Will, for Electra, until she left him again. Electra informs her that she will not be pursuing Will. She expects her to respect their two-year relationship by staying out of his house, life and bed. Dylan turns away. Electra gawps, “You didn’t. You didn’t. Just tell me that you didn’t!”

Dylan reminds Electra that Will was devastated after she walked out on him. Electra fumes that she wasn’t giving her the go-ahead. Dylan explains that they slept together… but on the couch. Electra flips out. “What did the two of you do?!” Dylan says they just made out. Electra accuses her of being a calculating gold-digger. She was supposed to be her best friend and lied and cheated behind her back!

Spiraling

At the beach house, Will gets a visit from Deke, who has something for him to review. Will knows Deke is checking up on him. Deke remarks that he’s not handling the break-up well. “Look at this place.” Will has a tantrum when Deke accuses him of spiraling, but admits he’s not doing so hot. He misses Electra.

Sitting, Will complains about the Forresters vilifying him to Electra. He’s not interested in Deke playing therapist.

Conflicted

At the cliff house, Taylor’s getting ready to leave for work when Finn senses she’s off. She admits she’s worried about Steffy. “It has to do with Sheila.” Finn frowns. Has something happened with Sheila. Taylor says no, but she can’t help but wonder what she’s up to. Finn admits he wonders if this Birth Mother™ has changed. Taylor exclaims, “Does Steffy know you feel this way?”

Finn says Steffy isn’t budging on the issue of Sheila. He asks if Taylor believes his mom has changed… should they give her another chance? Taylor points out history can’t be erased. She can’t help but be cautious about her… especially when it comes to Steffy. Finn admits he has conflicted feelings about Sheila, but Steffy will always come first.

Still Begging

In Finn’s office, Sheila’s still on her knees, begging Steffy to forgive her. “I just need a place in Finn’s life.” Steffy tells her to get up. Sheila does, as she protests that she’s earned a place in their lives by finding a way to do what was right. She needs her son. She needs Finn. Not obsessed at all!

Steffy grimaces as Sheila proposes becoming another caregiver for the children. Sheila’s sure to point out that her mother, Taylor, took her man and her entire life from her. She believes that Finn wants her to be a part of his life. “I know he does.” Steffy narrows her eyes at Sheila as the madwoman suggests she’s hurting her husband by keeping her away. “Let me in.”

The Final Scenes

Still in Finn’s office, Steffy tells Sheila she’s grateful that she’s shown compassion… she agrees that what her mother did was wrong. Sheila latches onto them having something in common. They’re practically friends! Steffy informs her that even if she’s changed, she’s hurt too many people. “I’m not going to accept you in my life. You’re not going to have a place in Finn’s life… ever.”

At Forrester, Electra rails at Dylan that Will still loves her and accuses her of tricking him. Dylan argues, “I love him.” She has to be able to live her life without catering to her needs. Electra, more worked up than we’ve seen her since Luna, tells Dylan she’s been hovering like a vulture, waiting for her chance to pounce on her boyfriend! She smacks her across the face.

At the cliff house, Steffy arrives and tells Finn she just had another run-in with Sheila. She doesn’t care if she’s his Birth Mother, she can’t be part of their family. “Please tell me you understand that.”

In Forrester’s design office, Dylan examines her face in the mirror and texts Will to call her.

At the beach house, Will’s overjoyed when Electra appears. He assumes she’s decided she believes in him. She seethes, “Not anymore. Not after what I learned today about you and Dylan. How could you do that, Will? How could you do that to me?!” Will visibly deflates.
