Brooke cannot get over the miraculous twist that Stephanie invited her to a family dinner. Connor supposes that maybe Stephanie no longer considers her a threat now that she is dating a man who is not a Forrester. Connor does not miss the chance to urge Brooke to give up on Ridge and focus on him. Stephanie and Eric have another discussion about the patent case with their lawyer. Steve suggests that they trick Brooke into signing a predated employment contract so that the creation of BeLieF will fall to the company. Eric refuses to be unethical, but is not happy to hear that Brooke will be bringing an attorney as her date tonight. Ridge is surprised when Taylor mentions that she had lunch with Connor. They soon argue because Taylor claims that Connor could be a good fit for Brooke. Kevin is looking very much forward to have his first proper job and work together with his brother. It therefore breaks Keith's heart to tell a crushed Kevin that he did not get the position as busboy at Bikini Bar.
