Bold and the beautiful - alternative version.

Shauna

Hope and Flo are at the beach house with Beth and Storm. They watch the kids and smile.

Flo: I know that it will sound wrong and all that... But I love seeing you with Beth.

Hope: I know.

Flo: I don't know where you found the forgiveness.

Hope: I did and that's what matters. 

Flo: Storm looks at Beth all the time.

Hope: And she looks only at her toy.

Flo: True.

Flo smiles.

Flo: I am so grateful that God allowed me to at least have Storm. 

Hope: He is a real gift to all out family. We see him as a blessing. 

Shauna walks into the house with groceries.

Shauna: Hope? I didn't know you were coming.

Hope: Don't mind me. I am leaving soon. 

Shauna: Oh no... Please stay. You know what I've got at the store? Cannelloni! 

Hope: Wow... Tempting, but... I really have to go. 

Shauna: What a shame. 

Hope takes Beth in her arms. 

Hope: I will see you soon Flo. Bye Shauna.

Flo: Bye Hope! Bye Beth!

Flo waves at Hope.

Hope leaves.

Shauna: Well, she doesn't hide how she feels about me. 

Flo: She will come around. She forgave me.

Shauna: Because you are her family. I am just a woman that had a fling with her uncle. 

Next scene: Liam, Bill and Wyatt talk at SP. 

Bill: When I was away you two made a pretty good job. Thank you.

Wyatt: No problem.

Liam: Yeah Dad, no problem.

Bill: Don't lie. You probably cursed me all the time. 

Wyatt: No...

Liam: Absolutely not.

Bill: Yeah right... 

Liam: So the house in Aspen is ready?

Bill: It's so much better than before. 

Wyatt: We have to visit that house, right?

Liam: Oh I would love to go there with Hope and Beth.

Wyatt: Yeah and me with Flo and Storm.

Bill: Guys, I love you both and I will give you the keys to Aspen, but first someone else booked a stay there. 

Wyatt: Who?

Bill: Caroline and Thomas. Of course Douglas will go with them.

Liam: Wow, so they really are serious about being a family again.

Bill: Exactly... That's why I have one request. 

Wyatt: Tell us.

Bill: No word to Caroline about what Thomas has done to Hope and Liam. Is that clear?

Liam: Ok, but shouldn't Caroline know what kind of man Thomas is?

Bill: Was. He is reformed. He was in an institution and he is on his best behavior since months. Caroline loves the loser and I don't want anything to interfere with their happiness.
