Bold and the beautiful - alternative version.

Fashion Show

First scene. Liam and Hope are playing with Beth. 

Hope: This is exactly what I needed. You, me, our beautiful baby... 

Liam: Yeah... I still can't believe that she is here. I have to pinch myself.

Hope: Liam... I am sorry that my request has hurt Steffy, but I really needed it. 

Liam: She will be fine. 

Hope: I hope that she will understand me one day.

Liam: Hope, she will... It's happened just few weeks ago and she is still suffering. She isn't thinking clear. 

Hope: I can relate to this. When I thought that Beth has died I was absolutely losing my mind. 

Liam: So you are staying with us the whole day? You won't be attending the fashion show?

Hope: Oh no... I will sound rude, but I am not very invested in the jewelry line. Besides, Ridge, Eric and everyone else understand that I need to spend a lot of time with Beth. I missed 8 months of her life. I need this time. 

Liam and Hope smile at each other and kiss. 

Next scene. Steffy is outside her cliff house watching the view. A car pulls up... RJ comes out of it. Steffy smiles at him. They go towards each other and hug. 

RJ: Hi big sis, how are you doing?

Steffy: I've been better, but at least I have you back home. Come in... Kelly is sleeping, but when she will wake up you can say hi to her. 

RJ: I'll wait for the little princess to wake up. 

Steffy: Do you want something to drink or eat?

RJ: No. Thanks. I had breakfast at mom's house. I will be here for like 2 or 3 hours if you'll let me and later I will go for the fashion show. 

Steffy: We can go together. I will be there too.

RJ: Perfect. I'll take you with my car. Who will stay with Kelly?

Steffy: I have a nanny. You think a CO-CEO of FC can do without a nanny?

RJ: Sorry I am ignorant. I never took care of a baby.

Steffy: Oh, believe me that it's not a walk in the park.

They laughed.

RJ: So how do you cope with losing Beth, Thomas being sent away and Liam marrying Hope again? Be honest. I don't want you to be alone with this. 

Steffy: Thomas needs help. Him being in some mental institution is horrible, but there is something seriously wrong with him. I just hope that he can come back as fast as possible.

RJ: And what about the rest?

Steffy: I miss Phoe... Beth. Terribly. 

RJ: And..?

Steffy: RJ, I really don't want to talk about Hope and Liam being back together. I just lost a child that I loved as my own... For months. Losing Liam is nothing in comparison. I'm tired of waiting for Liam to love me more than he loves Hope. He is where he wants to be and I am done fighting it. 

Next scene. Quinn prepares the models for the fashion show. 

Eric: Quinn, I have to say that I am proud of your latest designs. 

Quinn: Thank you. I won't be modest. I know that they are good.

Eric: Good! You have reasons to be confident. 

Quinn: I hope it will be a huge success. 

Ridge enters the room.

Ridge: Me too. 

Eric: Hello Ridge. I heard RJ is in town? He didn't even come to say hello to his grandpa. 

Ridge: He was very tired after his flight and now he is at Steffy's. They will soon both arrive to be at the fashion show. You'll see him in like an hour. 

Next scene: RJ and Steffy walk out of the nursery. 

RJ: Kelly is so cute! 

Steffy: She woke up for like 5 minutes to give her uncle a hug and she fell asleep again.

RJ: Yeah, she woke up only to hug me. I feel honored. 

Steffy: It's the first time you saw her in person.

RJ: It's amazing. I've met Beth and Kelly for the first time within 2 days. I feel like a super uncle now. 

Steffy: To unlock the super uncle achievement you need to baby sit her at least 3 times. 

Steffy laughs. 

RJ: I would love to.

Steffy: I was joking. I am sure that you will be the best uncle. 

RJ: So good to see you smiling. 

Steffy: I am glad that you are here. With Phoebe gone and Thomas away I needed a sibling. Please don't leave LA.

Steffy checks her mobile.

Steffy: Amelia will be here in 5 minutes. We can get ready for the fashion show. 

Next scene. Hope walks down the stairs to Liam. 

Liam: Beth is sleeping?

Hope: Yes. She will have her nap. Later maybe we will go for a walk? 

Liam: Sure. 

Hope: Everything ok? I see that you feel guilty that it's a Steffy-less weekend.

Liam: No. At least Steffy can be on the fashion show and live her life.  She needs to go out and see people. She can't stay at home and think about what she has lost. 

Hope: I agree.

Liam: I just worry about her because she was so sad the last time I saw her. 

Next scene. The fashion show begins. Steffy, RJ, Eric, Ridge and Brooke sit down to watch the fashion show. Models are showing off the jewelry. Everyone is clapping and at the end Quinn walks out. Everyone cheers. 

Next scene. Someone at home is watching the fashion show in tv. When the camera points at Brooke that's hugging RJ this person throws flowers from the table in anger.
