Stephanie doesn't deny that she views Brooke as a slut, however she maintains that her initial offer was sincere. Stephanie feels she offered Brooke everything she ever wanted, and Brooke rejected it and rejected the family. Stephanie demands that Brooke give the company back.

After she leaves Nick obsesses over Brooke working at Forrester. Stephanie drops in and begins trying to play him. She tells him how much she respects him. Nick says the ad campaign was not the best way to show her respect. However he thanks her for proving to the world how strong his commitment is to Brooke. Stephanie tells him she wants Brooke's stock back. She warns him that Brooke may not want to give the stock back because that would mean she would no longer have much contact with Ridge.

Unexpectedly, Taylor got up from her seat to speak about Darla. Taylor explained that the reason Darla died was because she was helping Phoebe who had been all alone on the foggy road. Taylor commented that she knows now what her task is in life;" it is to be the woman that Darla saw in me."

Thorne addressed everyone and thanked them for their tribute to Darla and their support to him. He stated that everyone's comments confirmed just how special Darla was.

After the service was over, Ridge told Taylor that he is worried about her drinking problem. Ridge suggested that they all spend time as a family for the afternoon and Taylor agreed.

At Thorne and Darla's, Taylor and Thorne prepare to tell Alexandria about her mother's death. Thorne is not sure how to handle it. Taylor tells him that sometimes it is hard for a grieving parent to explain death to a child and often it is better to have someone less involved explain. Taylor asks Thorne if Alexandria has ever known anyone that's died. Thorne tells her Alexandria knows about death, but has never really had to experience it first hand. Taylor thinks many children Alexandria's age don't understand the permanence of death. Before they can finish their conversation, Alexandria comes running in proudly showing them a "Get Well" card that she made for her mother. After Alexandria leaves the room Thorne feels guilty about not telling her about Darla's funeral. He knows she would have wanted to attend. Taylor assures him that Alexandria will understand that he was just trying to protect her. He worries about how he is going to break the news. Taylor advises Thorne to be himself and just be honest and loving when he tells her. While he is still trying to figure out the right words, Alexandria comes up to him asking about her mother. Thorne sensitively explains that Darla is dead. Not old enough to understand, Alexandria asks him when Darla can taking her pony riding. Trying to help, Taylor says either she or Thorne will take her, but her mother can't. She explains that even though Darla isn't coming back, she will live on in their hearts. Before Taylor leaves, Thorne thanks her for all of her help and she thanks him for making her feel useful again. Taylor offers to come back if Alexandria has anymore questions. Alexandria calls her Dad in to sing her Mom's favorite song, "Smile". Thorne sings her to sleep, as Taylor watches.

Meanwhile in Thorne's office at Forrester, Ridge is staring at a picture of Thorne and Darla when Donna walks in. He wonders if he should remove all the pictures of Darla from the Thorne's office, but Donna tells him not to. She tells him she came by to check up on him, since Brooke no longer can. She tells Ridge that he and Brooke are the gold standard of relationships and she has never been able to find one that measured up to theirs. Ridge refuses to get into another discussion about him and Brooke.

At Taylor's, Stephanie drops by looking for Taylor, but Phoebe explains that Taylor still isn't back from the funeral. Stephanie worries that Taylor has cut herself off from the family. She tells Phoebe she wants to be friends with Taylor again. Stephanie is concerned that Taylor is blaming herself for Darla's death. She says no one is to blame except "that animal that ran her down." Before Stephanie leaves she asks Phoebe how her mother seems to her. Not wanting to make Stephanie suspicious, Phoebe says she thinks Taylor is going through a rough patch because she misses Ridge. Stephanie refers to Taylor's drinking problem, and tells Phoebe to let her know if she or her Mom ever need her, promising that no one else will have to know.

Back at Forrester, in Brooke's office, Nick admits that Brooke's naked ad campaign payed off for Forrester. Brooke worries that sales will fall if she doesn't keep modeling for the Bedroom Line. Nick suggests that Donna become the new lingerie model for Brooke's Bedroom. He thinks it would be a cute campaign to have Brooke's little sister going through Brooke's closet and trying on her sister's lingerie. At first Brooke is opposed to the idea, saying she isn't sure how Donna looks in underwear, but Nick assures her that Donna looks good. Donna drops in before they have a chance to fool around and Nick makes a speedy exit. Donna is upset with Brooke for deserting the Bedroom Line when Ridge needs her most. She tells Brooke that it is hard for Ridge to try out his designs without a model. Donna is caught off guard when Brooke tells her that Nick thinks she should be Ridge's model. Brooke teases her sister, acting like she may not be in good enough shape to model.

Brooke told Donna that she might just do as the new spokesperson for Brooke's Bedroom, if she learned how to properly deal with the whole idea. As Brooke had her practice her steps, Donna became less awkward and more flowing. Brooke was now thinking that she had a chance.

Dante came home to a sad Bridget who can't think what it is going to be like for Darla's daughter to have to grow up without mommy. She is also sad because they won't grow up in their children's lives either. Dante asks Bridget if it is possible that is pregnant. She doesn't think so, until he reminds her that her last period was at least 6 weeks ago. Bridget still wants to have a baby so when Dante mentions that maybe she could be, Bridget says that she will take a pregnancy test.

Brooke tells her sister that she is madly in love with Nick. Donna refreshes her memory by telling her that she could have had it all. She had Ridge, the company and Stephanie's respect and she threw it all away for some "sailor."

Brooke comes downstairs and says that Donna is going to try something on. The two of them start to shift the furniture so that their living area looks like a runway. Donna comes down in her outfit and robe as Nick and Brooke sit on the sofa. After some barbs are tossed around, Donna removes the robe. Nick's mouth falling to the ground and he remarks that Donna just might be able to pull it off. Brooke has her parade around and as Donna's awkwardness turns into some semblance of a model's gait, Brooke becomes more and more satisfied.

Dante goes to work and finds Felicia there. She has brought a surprise for him to see, his son, Dino. After some shifting around, Felicia is able to get Dante to herself as she manages to get everyone else in the room doing something elsewhere. Bridget suddenly bursts into the room, and tells Dante that she has the test results, but hasn't looked at them yet. She asks Felicia if they could have some time alone for a few minutes, but Felicia says that she wants to be there for the results.
