Thorne turns down Katie's offer and tells her that he will be taking one of the guestrooms at the Forrester Mansion. Katie notes that it is hard to believe that Thorne is single. He expresses his happiness that Katie seems to have found new love after her divorce from Bill and Katie assures him that this is the case. Justin begins to put the pieces together. Assuming that Bill had planned the trip to Europe around Thanksgiving with Steffy and in light of his current sour mood, Justin cannot help but wonder if Bill sought revenge on Liam by going after Steffy. Bill denies this, but breaks it to Justin that he had a one-night-stand with his son's wife and that she is now pregnant. Justin is stunned that Bill seems to be in love with Steffy. Bill retorts that the baby is Liam's as the DNA test was conclusive - and that is all that matters. Still unsure about her future, Steffy has a daydream about what life would be like having a family with Liam. Just as Steffy begins to calm down, realizing that nothing will come between her and her husband, Liam makes a shocking discovery. A slip of papers falls out from Steffy's purse with a bolded headline on top: paternity test.
