A wedding invitation lures Thorne back to L.A. to meet with his brother Ridge, Rick, Steffy, Thomas, Pam and Zende at the Forrester Mansion to discuss Eric's plan to marry Quinn. Eric enters and rebuffs the family's concerns. Refusing to let a family vote decide if he should get married, Eric asks his family to respect his decision and remember everything they have accomplished because of his faith in them. Quinn implores Wyatt to support the happiness that she has found with Eric. Seeing that Eric has not been successful at getting through to the naysayers of the Forrester family, Quinn makes her own emotional appeal. Will she be able to convince Steffy?
