Darkness and Light.

Storm comes out of the water with his hand reached out to Katie and asks if he ever failed her when she needed him. Katie asks why he’s there and he says to save her. Storm tells her that no one will even want to look at her once the baby is born and tells her to come for a swim. He goes under water and Katie gets on the railing. Storm pops back up and says he promised her they’d always be together. When Katie hesitates, Storm says she has no one else but him and dives back under the water. After a few seconds, Katie jumps in after Storm. As Katie struggles in the water, Storm offers her his hand and says life is full of ugliness and struggle and he’s glad he doesn’t have to deal with it anymore. Storm goes underwater again and Katie follows him saying, “Take me with you!” She swims around after Storm trying to catch up to him and he turns around and looks like a demon. Katie gets scared and swims away from Storm. She breaks the water’s surface, but Storm tries to bring her back down with him.

What Will Be Will Be.

Alone on the deck, Katie wonders what she’s done and cries thinking about the situation. She walks around the boat and asks God why he hates her so much. She asks what he wants from her and hears a voice call her name. She looks out into the night and sees Storm emerge from the dark water. She hears his voice say, “I’m here for you Katie.”

You Will Hear What I Have to Say!

A peppy Nick pops into Katie's hospital room, bringing clothes for her to wear to Storm's memorial service. "I'm not going to Storm's service," she says. Nick tries to guilt her into it, saying she'll regret not having gone to the memorial. Instead, Katie asks to see the room where Storm shot himself. Nick takes her. Fortunately, the room is empty. Nick helps Katie out of the wheelchair and she gingerly walks into the room. She hesitates in the doorway, and then slowly, very slowly, walks in and sits on the bed. She asks for a moment alone, and Nick steps out to give her some privacy. Alone, Katie looks to the sky and says she would've been all right with dying.

An image of Storm, reliving his last moments on earth, writing his letter to Katie, appears in the room with her. "I already know what it says," she says as he sets the letter on the table next to her. She sweeps it to the floor and says she won't read it. She's angry that he didn't let fate make the decision to let her go. "Your life is more important than mine," the Storm-image says, holding a gun. She tries to argue with him, but there's no arguing. "Live. For me," Storm says. "No, I won't. You can't ask me. It's monstrous," Katie cries. "I don't want to be saved!" She pleads with him to let her die and save himself, but Storm is resolute. "You don't want to die," he says. Just as the Storm-image is about to shoot himself and Katie screams to stop him, Nick interrupts, telling Katie it's time to go. Reluctantly, she agrees to go to the memorial.

At the service, Brooke and Donna are standing next to an enlarged photo of Storm, folding his jacket and laying it next to the box of his ashes. Donna doesn't want to scatter his ashes, and Brooke agrees that he should stay in LA. The pastor shows up and asks to stay, despite the fact that Brooke is ticked that their regular pastor wouldn't give a service for Storm since Storm's death was a suicide. Brooke invites the pastor to stay, however. Stephen then pipes up, suggesting that the pastor should talk to Katie. The mysterious young man with the wedding announcement who made flight plans yesterday comes to the memorial. He briefly studies the newspaper clipping of Eric and Donna's announcement, and then walks in. Eric and Donna meet him at the door. He watches them uneasily as they cuddle.

"You know what's sadder than poor Storm? Donna Logan trying to fill Mom's shoes," Felicia says, dishing with Thorne and Ridge in a separate room at the memorial. Donna figures out that they're talking about her and sends in Marcus, the young man with the newspaper clipping, to interrupt. After they leave to join the service, Marcus picks up a photo of Storm and looks at it.

Ashley is the first to speak at the service, saying she's not sure why she was asked to speak today, but adding that she hopes Storm's found some peace. Just as she's in mid-speech, Katie and Nick come in and quietly take a seat; nobody notices they're there. Stephen stands up and speaks next. "I'm Storm's father, although I was never really head of the family," Stephen says. "Do I feel responsible for what happened to him? Yes, yes I do." He encourages everyone who thought Storm was a disturbed individual to ask themselves if they would lay down their life to save someone else. There's a short slide show and the ladies quietly cry while watching it. Then Brooke stands to speak. "It was hard to lose my brother and it was hard to remember that the last words I said to him were in anger," she says. "But he forgives me. I know he does." She drives home Stephen's point that some people didn't think Storm was worth grieving over, but he was--she puts the reverend on the spot, asking if she thinks Storm should be in Heaven. "I didn't know your brother. You tell me his last act was not of hopelessness, but of hope," the reverend says, suggesting that she doesn't think his last act was a sin. Donna stands by Brooke's side and cries, pointing out that Storm was brave and unselfish in believing in a future that he couldn't live to see. She thanks Storm for giving her a love that made her strong. Just as Brooke and Donna say that Katie would agree with them in their pride over Storm's selfless act, Katie stands, making her presence known. "I have something I want to say," she says. "Please sit down. Everyone. You're gonna listen to what I have to say."

Stephen Says Goodbye!

As Stephen struggles to come to terms with the news of Storm's death, the girls try to help him. He turns and tells Katie how glad he is that she's still here. Bridget says Katie needs to regain her strength, and Brooke and Donna lead Stephen from the room. Out in the corridor, Stephen says he needs to see his son. Eric comes over and embraces Donna. She cries that she didn't want Katie to see them all upset, and says she is so worried about her dad! She tells Eric that Brooke has taken Stephen to say goodbye to Storm. Down in the morgue, Stephen approaches the gurney on which Storm lies, and lifts the sheet briefly, before sitting down heavily on a stool nearby. He sobs as he tells his son that people who don't know him won't understand what he did - but he does. "It's the way you've always been. You always looked after his sisters so well. But it wasn't your job - it was mine! And I went away and left it all up to you! For what it's worth, I'll take care of them now. I'll be here and you can rest!" Brooke embraces her father. Back in Katie's room, she is visibly upset!

It's a Wonderful, Horrible Miracle!

An organ donor program representative—Theresa—comes off the elevator and wants to talk to Brooke and Donna about Storm’s wishes for organ donation. Brooke searches for Storm’s driver’s license and breaks down in tears. At the same time, the doctor comes in and announces that there’s nothing they can do to save Storm—he is brain dead. The sisters have no time for grieving over this news, as they frantically begin to beg Theresa to bypass the normal organ donation red tape and allow Storm’s heart to be given directly to Katie. Theresa is skeptical, but Bridget tearfully talks her into it.

Brooke is wracked with guilt, worried about how Storm will remember her, given her last words to him. Ridge enters, with Ashley, and embraces Brooke. They want to know how Katie is doing, and Brooke breaks the news to them about Storm’s death. Ridge and Ashley look on, shocked, as Brooke breaks down once again in guilty tears.
