[upbeat music] Hey there, stranger. RJ. Hi. Hey. Listen, uh, I know it's none of my business, but I couldn't help but notice the necklace. I mean, I can't believe you let him put that back on you. It was time. After all of the misunderstandings, we have a history, you know? Yeah, history that's left you heartbroken, Electra. Look, do not go back to Will. He's only gonna hurt you again. Look, I know you do not wanna hear this, but Will is a Spencer. Lying comes easy to them. Electra, you can't trust him.
Are we just forgetting about him letting Dylan live with them for months? Okay, RJ, stop. I know you care about me, but I've made my decision. I am only trying to prevent you from getting hurt. I know. I know, and I appreciate it, I do. I know that every girl in this room tonight would kill to have someone come to their defense like you do for me, but Will is my future. Electra, you have to listen to me.
This is not. Yo, RJ, are you touching my girl? -She's your girl? -Yeah, you heard me. It's girlfriend and boyfriend once again. -You're just gonna break her heart again? -Don't interfere in our relationship. -Or what, Spencer? -Or what? I don't know. [grunts] [laughs] Good night. So yeah, that's what I've been dealing with. Maybe you can see why I can be a bit guarded sometimes. After everything you've been through, who wouldn't be guarded?
It's like this pattern that I have, this, this history of being betrayed by the people I love and trust most. I am sorry, Electra. I mean, no wonder why what Will and Ivy did to you made you so upset. Yeah, it's just been one thing on top of another. Too much for one person to deal with, that's for sure. And it's always the people I least expect. First it was Remy, then Will, and then Dylan, and now my aunt. And it's like if I can't trust those people, who can I trust?
Me. Electra, you can trust me. Look, I'm not just saying that because it's the right thing to say or to make a, a promise that I'm not prepared to keep. Electra, you are safe with me. I will never let you down or break your heart. That I can guarantee. So you weren't hitting on Electra, is that what you're saying? No, Dad, I was trying to talk to her. Will has broken her heart repeatedly, and I was just reminding her that he's gonna -do it again. -All right, I know that's how you feel, and
-you may be right, but you can't just- -May be, Dad? Have you seen what he's put her through? He has broken her heart repeatedly, and I'm just supposed to, what, stand back and watch him do it again? RJ, no one wants to see Electra hurt again, okay? She's a good girl with a good head on her shoulders, but I think you just need to chill out for a second. Take -a step back- -Chill out and what? Take a step back and what? Steph, he has broken her heart repeatedly. I'm not just gonna sit back and watch him do it again. She is too good for Will Spencer.
I just wish my aunt would've stayed out of it. I know. Now that everything's out in the open, you have some important decisions to make. You either move forward with Will or look in a much more appealing direction. Look, just make me a promise. You won't make any rash decisions. Part of me can't help but feeling bad for him.
He said that after he told Dylan to leave, he came to the showroom, and that's when he saw our kiss. He didn't do anything. try and figure out what the kiss was about. Instead, he rushed back to Dylan, continued living with her, finding comfort in her arms, just like you found comfort in mine. Are you saying everything happens for a reason? I mean, think about it. That night at my granddad's place, all the moments we shared, the kisses, the laughs, the lemon bars, none of that would've happened if Ivy didn't do what she did.
And no, I don't condone it. But Electra, I wouldn't trade a second of that time with you. Look, Will needs to be gone from Forrester Creations and Electra's life. -Whoa, whoa, slow down. -No, no, Dad, he's put her through hell, and the sleazeball wants her back. We can't just stand around and let him continue to ruin her life. Electra is too special. I think we're all in agreement on that. Yes. She, she's wonderful. She's talented. We're very lucky to have her here, that's -it. -Exactly, but for her to come in every single day and have to put up with Will
and, and Dylan, too, her best friend who betrayed her, I. Look, I just wish Steffy never hired her. -But you know why she hired her, right? -Yes, yes, the, the whole Luna situation. Look, I'm not saying my sister's heart was in the wrong place, but having her here makes it very difficult for Electra. -And that's the last thing you want. -Yes. Electra deserves a stress-free life, and that includes a man who's gonna be there for her, someone who's gonna appreciate her the way she deserves to be appreciated. And Will claims that's him, but he's proven over and over that it's not.
Spencer does not need to be anywhere near Electra, especially here at Forrester. I mean, Dad, tell me you agree. What about this one? That is a moonstone. It's all about growth and new beginnings. I like that. Yeah, me too. Um, these are from our more chill collection. They're, uh, they're fun and still unique and just a little bit more accessible. Very beautiful. So what do you think about- -What do you think. Go ahead. -No, no, no, what were you gonna say? What I was gonna say or what I was thinking?
'Cause what I'm thinking is a lot more interesting. All right, I'll bite. What are you thinking, RJ? I'm thinking that I must be dreaming, because I cannot believe that I get to stand across such a gorgeous woman who looks at me with the most flawless emerald eyes, eyes that let me see into her soul. And I'm thinking that moving to LA might've been the best decision I've ever made.
