Brooke and Katie continued to argue as the press gathered around Eric and the models. Katie accused Brooke of embarrassing herself, so Brooke accused Katie of the same. Brooke ordered Katie to send the press packing. "What's done is done," Katie said. "What's done can be undone and it will be one way or another," Brooke promised.

On the other end of the showroom, Bill told the reporters and influencers that there were more dresses to come. Ridge declared that this was over, so the reporters asked Eric for his say. Eric didn't get a chance to say much because Ridge stepped in. Bill tried to put a stop to all of it when he threatened to have security kick the Forresters out.

Bill once again stated that he owned the designs and that Eric had come to him and Katie. A reporter asked if it was true that Ridge had kicked Eric out of his own company. Bill tried to explain exactly what Ridge did, but Eric and Brooke attempted to put a stop to it. Eric claimed it was a private matter.

Bill wasn't done. "You will be surprised to learn that Ridge threw a surprise retirement party for Eric. Well, it was a surprise — to Eric," he said. "He was kicked to the curb by his own son." Eric called the incident "a little career glitch."

Ridge tried to do damage control, claiming that he and his dad loved each other. "What happened to lead to all of this was a very unfortunate misunderstanding," Ridge said. Eric affirmed that, "My heart belonged at Forrester and it always will." Brooke also chimed in with, "He is no longer associated with Katie and her so-called fashion house."

As the Forresters left, the press chased them. Brooke looked back at her sister, who stood there in silence. Once the press event was over, Bill was thrilled, but both Katie and Liam were pensive. Liam didn't think it was right for Bill to air Forrester's dirty laundry, but Bill thought he was justified.

Bill even believed that Eric had been validated. "But the most important thing is, we won the day," Bill said, making Katie smile. After Bill and Liam left, Brooke returned. "I had to stay and try to convince you to put an end to this madness before it's too late," Brooke said.

The sisters went back and forth with the same argument they have been having for months, with Brooke again accusing Katie of stealing her name. Brooke was angry at Katie for allowing Bill to give the press private information. "You let him do it. You just stood there and didn't say a thing. My morally superior little sister," Brooke sneered. "I am going to put an end to you and your disgusting little fashion house."

At Forrester Creations, Will stared at a photo of Electra as RJ walked into Eric's office and ordered him to leave. "You and your family are my problem," RJ said, explaining to Will what his parents just did with Eric's designs. RJ accused Will of lying when he said he knew nothing about what Bill and Katie had done.

Will tried to reason with an angry RJ, who would barely let Will get a word in edgewise. Will knew that Eric had gone to Logan, pointing out that Ridge had pushed Eric out. RJ claimed his dad had done no such thing. Will still said he didn't know his folks had used Eric's designs. "Deny it all you want, Spencer, but I have a feeling you're in on this too," RJ said.

RJ did his best to defend Ridge, saying that he forced Eric to retire out of "love and concern." RJ claimed that Bill and Katie used Eric and Ridge's rift to their own advantage. Will calmly stood there and once again denied knowing that his parents had used Eric's designs. "Bro, I have my own life, things that I'm worried about," Will said.

That only set RJ off more, calling Will a "low life, just like your dad." Will warned RJ that he wasn't going to bully him out of the company or building.

Once Will was alone, he tried to relax, but RJ returned, once again saying that Will would be gone once his parents were through bothering Bill and Katie. RJ even accused Will of being a double agent for Logan. When Ridge arrived, RJ hurled more accusations for Will to deny.

RJ then asked what happened at the fashion show. Ridge told RJ what happened, but RJ was more concerned with Will and told him to fire his rival immediately. Ridge was man enough to admit he made a mistake and pushed Eric to work for Logan. He asked Will if he had anything to say about what Bill and Katie had just done. Will once again denied knowing their plans.

"It makes me sick what my parents have done. I know my mom. I have to think she was just swept up by my dad's bad influence," Will admitted. "I understand, Ridge, if you wanted to fire me."
