Overview

Ridge is shocked when Jonathan confirms that Brooke made it back in time. Ridge realizes that Rick was the one who called Brooke, Deacon explains how he figured out what Ridge was up to. Eric tells everyone to calm down. Brooke declares that she can never trust Ridge again, fires him as CEO. She names Rick her new vice president, tells Ridge he can continue as head designer. When Thorne calls Rick's promotion ridiculous, Brooke responds that it's as ridiculous as putting Taylor on the board or canceling the bedroom line. She also names Deacon the new head of promotions. Massimo is concerned that he hasn't heard from Rick yet about the meeting. His only hope is that Ridge's plan fails and the family turns on him, which would leave Ridge free from Forrester. Greg calls Massimo to alert him about what happened at the board meeting. Massimo is pleased, certain that this is the end for Ridge at Forrester Creations.
