At Forrester Creations, in the backstage area, Eric tells everyone that RJ and Zende have assembled some new footage for a new Brooke’s Bedroom video. Hope is thrilled to hear that the lead singer from the band, Kaleo, will be filming his part of the video today. She offers to escort J.J. down there, but Steffy tells her she doesn’t have to do that. She warns Hope that Finn’s a fan of Kaleo and will be there, “Respect my marriage, Hope.” After, Carter asks Hope if she’s OK. She wants to put Steffy out of her mind and focus on the Icelandic rock star.

In the main office, Steffy’s surprised when Taylor comes in. She warns her there’s a Brooke’s Bedroom shoot today, and this may be the last place she’ll want to be. Taylor asks if Finn will be there. Steffy says he is, and she’s already warned Hope to stay away from her husband. Taylor counsels her to be careful and protect her marriage. Steffy asks her mother if she’s sure she wants to stick around and watch Brooke in her underwear being celebrated by Ridge. She puts a live stream of the backstage area onscreen for Taylor to watch and then takes off. She urges her mom to stay out of the salon.

In the backstage area, Finn arrives, and Hope greets him. She heard he’s a big Kaleo fan. Finn guesses Steffy told her and asks where his wife went. Hope teases him. Will he fanboy out and ask for an autograph? Finn jokes about having an in with a higher-up to snag an invite. Nearby, Bridget arrives and Brooke wonders if she’s more excited about her line or the collaboration with J.J. Bridge laughs, “Can it be a little bit of both?”

Carter and Bridget chat with Brooke and Ridge, and Carter learns that Bridget is friends with the Icelandic rocker and his appearance is thanks to her. Bridget hopes it works out. Steffy walks in with J.J., who hugs Bridget and introduces him to Carter, Ridge, and Brooke. J.J. tells Brooke they have a mutual friend… he and Andrea Bocelli go way back.

Hope steps forward, and the guy says he’s a huge fan of her line and her message. Hope gushes that his music will be the perfect pairing for her mother’s line. Steffy takes J.J. to meet Eric and Finn, and leaves them talking. She catches Hope staring at Finn, and walks over to confront her about it. “If you want to keep your line, you stay away from my husband. We don’t want a repeat of what happened during Danny Romalotti’s song.” Hope walks off, and Ridge declares that it’s time. Finn joins Steffy and says it was “kinda sick” to meet the rocker. Steffy tells Finn that Hope is too big a fan… not of Kaleo, but of him.

In the design office, Hope stresses out and flashes to kissing Finn. Carter comes in and says it looked like she had another run-in with Steffy. Hope asks him what he honestly thinks about her line. He loves it. It’s her, and she puts it out into the world. He’s been thinking about it a lot, and he has a crazy idea. Hope is open to suggestions, “Please.” Carter warns it’s more of an idea for her, than her line.

In the main office, Taylor watches Brooke and Ridge kiss and canoodle in the backstage area on the screen. J.J. starts playing his song and video footage of Brooke in lingerie plays on big screens behind him.

Watching the performance, Steffy and Finn smile and hold hands. Eric and the others beam as they take it all in. When J.J. wraps up the tune, everyone jumps to their feet, applauding enthusiastically.

In the main office, Taylor rushes out, seemingly distressed.

In the design office, Hope asks Carter, “So, you’ve been thinking about me.” He says he has… he has an idea to help her line. Hope tells him not to leave her in suspense. He thinks he could capitalize on the success of her mom’s bedroom line by being front and center. Hope gawps. Does he mean by modeling lingerie? Carter shrugs, “If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.” Hope laughs, “So you’ve been thinking about me modeling lingerie.” Carter nods, “Guilty as charged.” He asks, “Too much?” She smiles, “I didn’t say that.”

Finn and Steffy enter the main office with him gushing about how cool the performance was. She seems off, so he asks if she’s OK. Steffy doesn’t like the way Hope looks at him. Finn says it doesn’t matter, he only had eyes for her. They kiss.

In the backstage area, Brooke tells J.J. how incredible he was. He hopes to see them all at the concert tonight. Bridget and Eric walk the rocker out. Brooke grins to Ridge, “Could that have gone any better?” Taylor arrives, behind a curtain, as Brooke tells Ridge they’ll celebrate that night in the bedroom. They make plans to leave the concert early and make out. Taylor’s heart beats uncomfortably and she holds her chest. Brooke walks off, and Taylor collapses, pulling the curtain down with her. Ridge rushes over, “Taylor! Hey, Taylor! Are you alright? Taylor!”
