Nick and Katie are drawn to each other, Bridget gushes to Brooke about her wedding, Donna gets an eyeful and Felicia meets Owen.
Nick comes downstairs shirtless and pours himself a drink while smoking a cigar. Katie comes in and notes that he’s a bachelor in his lair, but not for long. He says a bachelor in deed and then asks her to join him. Katie doesn’t think heart transplant patients are supposed to have cigars. He apologizes and puts it out. Katie says he can enjoy the cigar after she’s gone because she thinks it’s time for her to abandon ship, considering he’s getting married tomorrow. Katie says she should go pack and Nick wonders why she has to leave so soon. Katie says he, Bridget and Jack will be a family after tomorrow and she’d just be in the way. Nick says Bridget understands they shared something special and is okay with that. He says they both want to take care of Katie and make sure she’s as good as new. Katie isn’t sure that’s going to happen.
Katie holds Jack and tells him that he’s getting a new mommy tomorrow and while she won’t be able to stick around forever, she’ll be around as much as she can. Nick tells her not to be a fatalist, but Katie says she’s not complaining because she’s had more happiness in the last few weeks then most people have had in a lifetime. She thinks it’s because of both Jack and Nick.
After Jack goes to bed, Nick brings out a nerf basketball and they place a bet on a game. Katie doesn’t think it’s polite to fleece the groom the night before his wedding, but Nick assures her he has a big bank account. They engage in a playful game of hoops and end up in a close situation. They almost kiss, but Nick breaks the tension saying they should call it a tie. Katie says she should go and tells him the wedding is all planned and she will see him tomorrow. As she leaves, they both look back longingly at the door.
Felicia berates Eric in his living room for leaving Stephanie for Donna, calling Donna a few nasty names in the process. Eric defends Donna, but Felicia says Donna will make a fool out of him. Eric says she would never cheat on him and it insults him that Felicia is selling her so short. Felicia brings up Stephanie again and Eric promises to visit her. He says he will always care about her mother and they hug. Felicia thanks him and leaves.
Donna comes in the room and says she just said goodbye to Marcus and she thinks he had a good time. Eric thinks everyone did and Donna wants to have a private party with her Honey Bear. He’d love to, but he tells her he’s going to see Stephanie because he hears she’s been depressed. Donna wonders why he can’t do that later, but Eric apologizes saying he has two families.
At the beach house, Stephanie sits in her rocking chair looking depressed.
Owen is out by the pool in a towel looking for something when Donna comes out. She surprises him and he drops his towel, exposing himself in the process. Owen covers up and says he took a shower in the pool house and now he can’t find his clothes. He thanks her for inviting him to the party and Donna says he must have known he would have been asked to stay considering he brought Eric a gift. Owen says he was just being prepared, like a good boy scout and wants to thank Eric before he leaves. Donna says he’s with his ex-wife and Owen can’t believe he would leave her all alone. Donna defends him, but Owen says if she were his wife…Donna asks if she were his wife, what? Owen just tells her that Eric is a lucky man and he hopes he realizes what a beautiful and elegant wife he has. Donna says they are both lucky and she feels blessed that Marcus is in her life as well and thanks him again. Owen recalls that Marcus was ready to give up on finding her and that’s when he stepped in - he even paid for Marcus's plane ticket. While Owen has helped others find people they thought they lost, this is his proudest success story. He says the best part is the way Donna opened her heart to Marcus. Donna says she’ll go get her checkbook to pay him back, but Owen says he’ll come by the office and they will settle up there. Felicia sneaks around and watches their interaction from the shadows.
After Donna leaves, Felicia introduces herself to Owen. He says he noticed her at the pool party because she wasn’t wearing a swimsuit. She says she noticed him at Forrester Creations and would like to speak with him there in the morning. He says they can do it over a drink now, but she says the morning will be fine and leaves.
Brooke and Bridget discuss the wedding and Bridget cries saying she never thought she’d be this happy again. Brooke gives her some Kleenex and tells her daughter that after seeing her and Nick so happy, she knows that they are meant to be together. Brooke tells Bridget that she has made some mistakes in the past and she regrets them deeply. She wants her to know that she will not interfere in her marriage again. Bridget thanks her, but says she doesn’t have to make any promises this time. Bridget tells her mother that she and Nick had to break up so he could get her out of his system, but he was worth the wait. Brooke thinks he feels the same way and says they will have a wonderful future together. Talk turns to Katie and Brooke says Bridget gave her life and now she’s returning the favor. Brooke says, “No one is happier for you than my sister.”
