At Spencer, the welcome-back gifts poured into Bill's office. He gripped a gifted bottle of scotch and advised Liam that Liam needed to have his animals' rights article ready in time for Bill to read it before Bill went out of town. Bill said he was headed about as far away from "L.A." as he could get.
Liam was surprised that Bill would leave town so soon after getting back to work and reuniting with Brooke. Bill hoped that he could trust his vice president, even though Katie had appointed Liam, to hold the place down, and Bill added that Brooke was the motivation for the whole trip.
Bill didn't plan to go without Brooke. Liam asked where the couple was headed, and Bill showed Liam a website photo of scenic Dubai. Liam shouted the name of the city, but Bill shushed Liam because it was a secret. Liam said it was a once-in-a-lifetime trip and wondered what Bill was up to.
"Making memories," Bill replied. He said that Brooke had given him his life back. The trip was his way of showing Brooke what it meant to him and what she meant to him. Bill stated that he'd promised Brooke the world, and he was giving it to her.
In the Forrester's CEO office, Brooke and Hope discussed Hope dating Wyatt and Liam. Hope felt that she could see herself with either one of the men, each of whom was frustrated because each wanted to start a life with her. Brooke thought it was wonderful to have two great guys fight over Hope.
Brooke advised Hope to take her time, and when Hope did make the decision, the men would be happy that she had taken the time to choose the right man. Hope didn't want to drag it out, and she feared that people would talk. Brooke reasoned that people did that, anyway, and Liam and Wyatt could handle courting Hope for a few more weeks.
Courting sounded old-fashioned to Hope, but she decided that she deserved to be courted. Brooke replied that every woman did. Hope felt that Liam understood that she loved both men, but Wyatt was still working through it. Hope sensed that both men thought it was a challenge. Brooke reasoned that the pregnancy scare had turned out to be a good thing, and Hope's future would be wonderful no matter whom she chose.
Bill called Brooke to ask her to get to his office right away to see something. After the call, Hope guessed her lunch with Brooke was canceled. Brooke stated that Hope wasn't fond of Bill, and in reply, Hope struggled to say that if Bill made Brooke happy, then Brooke deserved it.
In Rick's office, Quinn disdainfully brushed cat hair off Wyatt. She was at least glad it meant that Wyatt was spending time with Hope. Quinn was confident that Hope would pick Wyatt, but she told her son to make sure that Liam got custody of the cat. Wyatt poised his pen to sign some order forms, but he wasn't sure how to sign them. Quinn urged him to use his new name and be proud.
Quinn cooed over the Spencer signature and said that Liam didn't have an edge over Wyatt in that area any longer. Wyatt remarked that he and Liam were Spencers and loved cats; it seemed like a level playing field to Wyatt, except he felt he had more charm and a more winning personality than Liam.
Quinn and Wyatt entered Eric's office as Brooke was leaving. After Brooke had gone, Quinn guessed Brooke was rushing to see Bill. Hope called it young love, and Quinn claimed she didn't want to get in the middle of it. Quinn suggested that Hope and Wyatt go downstairs to view the new pieces, and as she shoved them out the door, Wyatt noted that she wasn't subtle with her matchmaking.
After the two had gone, Quinn heard Hope's phone chime. She was almost about to call Hope's attention to the discarded phone, but instead, Quinn decided to check the messages. Liam had texted Hope to ask her to meet him in the Forrester steam room. Quinn deleted the message.
Later, Hope and Wyatt returned for her phone, and she noted that she hadn't missed any messages. Hope decided to text-message Quinn about the pieces Hope had seen, and as Wyatt said that Quinn had an eye for matching jewelry and couples, Hope saw Liam's contact information on her phone.
Wyatt offered to take Hope to the beach, and Hope asked if they could do it after her meeting. He asked if she was slated for some Liam time, but Hope said she wasn't. It was strange to her that Liam hadn't contacted her that day. Wyatt assumed that Liam was sweating over a fashion article, and Hope was stuck with Wyatt.
In the steam room, the toweled Liam entered and waited for Hope. Quinn slinked up to the door and placed a barbell across it. She turned the temperature up to one hundred twenty-five degrees. Quinn upped the temperature five more degrees and walked away.
Inside, Liam became too hot. He banged on the door and shouted that someone had locked him in there. As he yelled for attention, Quinn was around the corner, snickering.
Back at Bill's office, Bill could hardly finish his call when his eyes caught the sight of Brooke in his doorway. Brooke loved seeing him back in his element and wondered how he'd thank her for it. He asked where in the Middle East she'd ever been, and she replied nowhere. She asked what he was planning, and he replied that it would be the most romantic trip of her life.
Brooke didn't know how they'd top Monte Carlo. Bill stated that they'd had beautiful memories, but it was time to make bigger, grander, life-changing memories. He showed her photos of Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Brooke was amazed and asked what had inspired him. "What do you think?" he asked and pulled a ring box from his pocket.
Bill popped open the box, and Brooke uttered, "You saved the ring!" He replied that he'd known that she'd want it back on her finger one day. He told her that she was the only woman to accept him completely, and he hoped he was doing the same for her. She said he knew that he was. He'd planned the trip because it was time to make everything about them official.
Bill wanted to move forward with Brooke, who'd given him back his life, his son, and his company. "All that's missing is you," he stated. He said it was time for them to commit to each other for the rest of their lives, and he asked her to marry him. Brooke excitedly agreed. Bill placed the ring on her ringer, kissed her hand, and then kissed her.
