Ridge and Eric are discussing Brooke when Morgan
comes up to them. She wants to know what is going on between them and
Brooke, but Eric tells her that it is personal. Morgan tells them that
she is the right person for the job. She said that another designer
might not have the affinity for the company or for the family. She said
that she was sure that she could help them work through their problems
with Brooke. Rick interrupts to discuss a problem with his dad. After
Eric leaves, Morgan and Ridge discuss the old days. She looks at a
design of Ridge's and tells him that his designs lack the passion and
the sensuality that they used to have. She asks him what has happened to
him. She says that he has become conservative. He shows her another
sketch that he was working on, and she tells him that was more his
style. They discuss how Morgan wore the first gown that he ever designed
and how they snuck it on the runway without Eric's approval, but it
worked out because he got great reviews from the critics. He tells
Morgan that she helped to launch his career. She tells him that she was
young and in love, so she did foolish things. They are still reminiscing
about the past when Taylor comes in. Morgan asks Taylor if she can help
her, but Taylor says that Ridge can. Taylor then kisses Ridge. Ridge
introduces the two women. Morgan said that she was hired to bust Ridge's
chops. Ridge gives Morgan some more of his designs to look at and tells
her that they were for her eyes only. Taylor wanted to know why Ridge
wanted to see her, and he said that he just wanted to see his wife.
Morgan is outside the door watching them as they kiss. She then flashes
back in time to a fashion show from years ago. Ridge is dressed kind of
like a hippie and the song " Call Me" by Blondie is playing. Morgan is
telling him how brilliant he is and that his dad will probably let him
design. He tells her that it is all because of her. She jumps into his
arms and they kiss. Morgan has a wistful look on her face as she comes
back to the present and continues to watch Taylor and Ridge.
Eric and Rick are discussing Little Eric. Rick says that he doesn't know
if he can stand not seeing the baby. Eric tells him that he had spoken
with a lawyer and that Rick didn't have any legal rights to the baby.
Rick said that they had to do something to stop Becky from taking the
baby back to Paris. Meanwhile Becky and Amber are discussing the baby.
Amber said that she would really miss the baby. Becky tells her that she
wishes that she could stay in LA, but her job was in Paris. Eric calls
Becky and tells her that he wants to see her at his office. He tells her
that she would not be going back to Paris. He tells her that he had
spoken with her boss, and that they had hired another girl to take her
place. Becky wants to know how she is supposed to support the baby
without a job. Eric tells her that she would be working in LA. He tells
her that they still consider Little Eric to be a part of their family.
Rick tells her that he stills wants to see the baby as often as he can.
Becky tells them that Amber was right about them, when she said that
they wouldn't turn their backs on the baby. Eric said that this was the
one time that Amber was right.
