Jackie and Owen make love on the way to Hawaii.
Jackie and Owen fly to Hawaii on a private jet, since Jackie canceled the tickets Owen bought and chartered a plane instead. Owen asks if he did good by booking this trip. Jackie shows him how good he did by escorting him to the bed in the cabin for some sex. A round of lovemaking later, Owen tells her that they're going to land in sunny Hawaii really soon. Jackie looks forward to mai tais and sunny beaches.

Concierge Chaika brings the newlyweds a gift.
In Hawaii, Nick wakes up and finds Bridget already dressed. He asks why she's dressed, since they decided to spend the first day of their honeymoon in bed. Bridget sits next to him on the bed and kisses him just as the concierge knocks at the door with a complaint about them from the suite next door. Wondering if they were too loud last night, Nick grabs a robe and opens the door. The concierge, whose name is Chaika, tells him he was kidding about the complaint and presents them with a honeymoon gift from the hotel. Handing the gift basket to Nick, Chaika gives the lovebirds some privacy. Nick tells Bridget to take off the hat she's wearing and kisses her. Soon after, the lovebirds are walking around on the gorgeous Hawaiian beach. Bridget suggests some activities they can try like surfing or para-sailing, but Nick tells her that he had some indoor bedroom activities in mind for them. Bridget likes the way he thinks and leads him back to their hotel room.

Clarke reports to Nick that Ms. M has gone M.I.A.
Meanwhile, Chaika is showing Jackie and Owen to the suite right next to Nick and Bridget's. The concierge helps them get settled and leaves. On his way out of the suite, Chaika runs into Nick and Bridget, who are having trouble finding their key. Nick impatiently tells Bridget to hurry up, since he's anxious to get inside. Chaika asks if he can help, but Bridget finally finds her key and opens the door. Just as Nick rushes his bride into their suite and closes the door, Jackie and Owen come out and head for the beach. Meanwhile, Nick and Bridget try to grab a few minutes without interruption, but Bridget gets a call on her cell phone. Nick tells her to forget it, but Bridget tells him that the doctor in her can't ignore a ringing phone. Nick reminds her that she's not a doctor anymore, but she takes the call, only to hang up when she learns that it's someone selling time-shares in Tijuana. Not wanting to be interrupted again, Nick hides Bridget's phone and puts a "do not disturb" sign on the door. But before they can get busy, Nick gets a call from Clarke, who tells him that Jackie M. has gone M.I.A. Nick orders Garrison to check Jackie's loft to see if she's shacked up with her "six pack." Clarke says he'll get right on it.

Bridget and Nick watch an amourous couple on the beach.
At that very moment, Jackie and her "six pack" are hitting the beach. As a surfer, Owen can't wait to hit the waves, and he decides to teach Jackie how to surf. He laughs that she'll be riding a board on those big ones in no time, but Jackie tells him that the only "big one" she's interested in is him. Thinking about it again, Jackie decides to give surfing a try. Owen picks her up and gives her a hug and they start making out on the beach. Back at the hotel, Nick goes out on the terrace, clearly upset by Clarke's call. He looks out at the beach and sees the amorous couple, not realizing that it's his mother and Owen. Bridget comes out and asks if everything is OK with Jackie. Nick says he's not sure, but he stops in mid-sentence as he sees the couple on the beach getting hot and heavy. Bridget's also surprised at the passionate display and laughs that the couple sure has the right idea.

Stephanie urges Taylor not to give up.
Stephanie drops by Taylor's house to find out if Taylor has heard from Ridge. Taylor says she hasn't, and she takes that as a sign that Ridge has told Brooke and is working things out with her. Stephanie thinks there might be another explanation, since the Brooke she knows would have charged right over here last night to berate Taylor for seducing Ridge or would have come after her, instead. Maybe Ridge didn't tell Brooke after all, Stephanie supposes. Taylor thinks that might be for the best, but Stephanie disagrees. Taylor thinks it's evident that Ridge still loves Brooke, but Stephanie points out that even love can't always hold a relationship together. Pointing out how Taylor has carried Ridge through some dark moments in his life and brought him stability, Stephanie urges her friend not to give up when she's so close.

Brooke asks Ridge to open up.
Ridge drops by Brooke's house to talk. Brooke apologizes for their being interrupted last night at the chapel when the baby sitter called her home to check on Hope. Brooke asks him to please come home to her. Ridge says that he wants to come back to this house to be with her, but he's not sure if he can. Brooke reminds him that he can tell her anything and asks him to open up about his problems so they can work through them and get their lives back. Ridge tries to figure out when their problems started and guesses that everything started the day he lost his little girl. He explains that losing Phoebe still overwhelms him grief sometimes, which is why the thought of Rick and Steffy reconciling set him off. So when their kids came over to tell them about their plans to reunite, he had no choice but to bolt out of here. Without thinking, he found himself at Phoebe's grave, and Taylor was there, too. He was in free-fall, but Taylor helped him. He then admits that Taylor had some anti-anxiety medicine with her, and he took some of the pills to help him relax. Brooke admits that she's grateful that Taylor was able to help when she couldn't. Still, she believes that she and Ridge can still recapture the feelings they once shared.

Ridge confesses that he and Taylor made love.
Brooke asks Ridge if they can get back what they lost. Ridge doesn't know, and he thinks the answer depends on Brooke. Brooke assures him that she wants him to come home, but Ridge says that it's not that simple. He confesses that he was this close to an emotional meltdown until Taylor stepped in to help. He didn't think that he could come back from that, but then he felt this euphoria, and it was like he could breathe again. He tells Brooke that he doesn't want to hurt her, but he can't lie to her, either, so he confesses that he and Taylor made love. Brooke is stunned.
