Ridge and Taylor are amused by James and Lauren's reaction to their staged display of affection. He is worried, though, because Brooke has not called the children in two days. Failing to reach her in person, Sheila leaves Brooke a message in which she warns her that Stephanie will turn the kids against her. Sheila then calls Maggie and learns that nobody will be in Stephanie's house the next morning. Sheila realizes that this is a perfect opportunity. Eric, Stephanie, Lauren, Maggie and Jessica enjoy a late night sundae feast at the Forrester Mansion. Michael admits to Dylan that she is still having a hard time coming to terms with their break-up. Dylan on the other hand is desperate to find a new job to put an end to his dire financial situation. Dylan's attempt to get employment at Insomnia Café is in vain. He reluctantly makes a beeline to strip-club Beverly Hills Hideaway and scores a position as a shirtless waiter.
