A feeble Caroline informs her father that she is taking a leave of absence from work. Bill worries about Caroline, but she reassures him. Still shaken about Caroline's declining condition, Ridge seeks advice from Dr. Hayes. Taylor pressures Ridge to accept the inevitable and not to tell Caroline that he knows about her illness. Conway Weston gives Stephanie surprising information: the only man that Brooke has been seeing lately besides Eric is Ridge. When Ridge showers her with gifts for their next 50 wedding anniversaries, Caroline realizes that her husband is aware that she is dying. Sally shows up at Spencer Publication to threaten Bill about publishing photos of her wedding without approval.
