Brooke visits Donna and learns to her dismay that Eric is with her. It seems Donna and Eric are still seeing each other, which spells trouble for Storm. Donna promised Stephanie she would stay away from Eric; in exchange, Stephanie would not turn Storm over to the police. Donna and Eric promise Brooke that they will be careful and that Stephanie will never find out what they are up to. Later, Brooke must tangle with Stephanie over another matter. Stephanie, despite her promise to support Brooke after the rape incident, is now trying to discourage her relationship with Ridge. And it's all because of what she now knows about Nick, Taylor and baby Jack. Meanwhile, Nick asks Dr. Warwick what he can do to help his wife, Taylor, who seems to be losing her mind. Warwick gives him a surprising answer.

Nick tells Brooke that he still loves her, but she is relieved when he adds that he is still committed to his marriage with Taylor. But then he appalls her by stating his intention to tell Taylor how he feels about Brooke. Meanwhile, Brooke is the subject of Taylor's hallucination. The Brooke in her mind taunts her over the fact that she stole Ridge from her and declares that she'll steal Nick and her baby as well. Dr. Warwick does his best to help Taylor through her mental crisis. Elsewhere, Rick confides in his sister, Bridget, about his concerns for Taylor's well-being. Bridget, for her part, is worried that her friendship with Taylor is forever ruined, thanks to her mistake in the lab that caused Brooke's egg to be implanted in Taylor's womb, resulting in baby Jack, the son of both Brooke and Taylor
