Bold and the beautiful - alternative version.

Running away

Caroline, Douglas and Katie are in Bill's living room.

Katie: Caroline, you can't be serious? 

Caroline: Douglas honey, go upstairs and start working on your homework, ok?

Douglas: Okay mommy...

Douglas went upstairs.

Caroline: Katie, this is my business.

Katie: It's also Thomas's business. He has the right to know that you are leaving. Communication is so important...

Caroline: Communication is important and Thomas never told me about his actions... He let me believe that he was actually grieving my supposed death... When in reality he was just obsessing over Hope. 

Katie: Was. Past tense. Don't ruin your happiness for something that is not happening now.

Next scene: Rick is alone in the FC office looking at the mirror. Diana walks inside the office.

Diana: Hi

Rick: Oh... Diana, right?

Diana: Yeah... Everything ok with your lip?

Rick: Your cousin Thomas is a little bit upset with me. I bet you already know the story. 

Diana: Yeah... I do. 

Rick: So... Are you another person that came here to yell at me? 

Diana: No. I was looking for my brother, but I'm happy that I've bumped into you.

Rick: Really?

Diana: Yes... Rick... I think you should really just... Let Caroline and Thomas work on their problems. They don't need your opinions. 

Rick: I won't do anything else... Caroline knows the truth and now she will never want Thomas again. 

Diana: You can't be sure about it. 

Rick: I am sure because what Thomas did is horrific. 

Diana: He was in so much pain at that time... 

Rick: You don't know the whole story... 

Diana: Actually my dad told me everything.

Rick: Oh... And what do you think about your cousins actions?

Diana: Pretty sick...But as I said before... He was in pain.

Rick smiles. 

Rick: A forgiving lady... 

Diana: I am trying to be. No need to waste time on hate. 

Rick: I am surprised that you are so friendly towards me.

Diana: Why not?

Rick: I'm public enemy number 1 right now. 

Diana: Thomas and Caroline will get back together and everyone will forget what you have done.

Rick: That would be cool... Especially because everyone forgets about all the evil things Thomas has done.

Next scene: Caroline and Katie talk.

Caroline: My God...  when I will tell my mom about it... She will flip. 

Katie: Uhmm... Actually... Karen knows. Danielle knows too. 

Caroline: What?! 

Katie: Honey, we all witnessed Thomas's change. He is not the unstable man anymore. 

Caroline: My mom's knew?! 

Katie: Caroline... Calm down.

Caroline: I feel betrayed by everyone right now... I really want to be alone.
