Katies marriage to Dollar Bill hits another major bump in the road. Taylor and Brooke argue about the outcome of Liam Hope and Steffy.

Steffy hides the fact that Hope is en route to Aspen from Liam. Rick and Bill both use their power of persuasion to manipulate the outcome of the Steffy Liam and Hope love triangle.

The day before Liam (Clifton) and Hope's (Matula) wedding day, Hope, Brooke (Lang), Pam (Alley Mills), and Stephanie (Susan Flannery) plan the ceremony and luncheon. Meanwhile, believing he is in desperate need of a break, Steffy (MacInnes Wood) "kidnaps" Liam and the two spend a fun in the sun day on Venice Beach dancing and playing volleyball. Later she professes her love to him and questions why he is marrying Hope when all she has done is disappoint him. Liam lets Steffy down easy, telling her he will always love her. Before leaving Forrester Mansion for her romantic pre-wedding dinner with Liam, Hope stops to thanks Stephanie one more time. She becomes concerned when Stephanie, who has had lung cancer, begins to cough and can't catch her breath. She cancels on Liam without telling him why making Liam feel that perhaps Steffy is right. Steffy, out at a local nightclub with friends, is surprised when Liam shows up and tells her that Hope stood him up. The two proceed to dance the night away.

Hope asks Brooke to keep the secret she revealed while the two were in counseling with Dr Barton. Bill takes extreme measures to keep Steffy from signing her annulment papers.

Liam lays out a workable plan so that he Hope and Steffy can attend Fashion Week in Aspen. Dollar Bill Spencer blackmails an employee to do his bidding.

Stephanie has a health scare that prevents Hope from keeping her dinner plans with Liam. Feeling rejected and stood up by Hope once again Liam refuses to sit home alone and sulk.
