At Dr. Reese Buckingham’s (Wayne Brady) place, he warns Florence (Katrina Bowden) not to hand the baby over until he has his money. She wonders how much he’s getting. Reese explains it’s $250,000 and that’s how much he needs to keep his daughter safe. He gives Florence papers to familiarize herself with but tells her she doesn’t need to understand them.
Florence questions where he got a social security number for the baby. Reese feels it’s best she doesn’t know the answer. Florence realizes she’s breaking the law by signing and worries, “What if Steffy finds out?” She asks how much trouble Reese is in. He just has to pay off the $200,000 and the other $50,000 is for her. Florence is concerned about him making her an accomplice, but Reese muses, “That ship has sailed.” He feels nothing can go wrong and everyone gets what they want. Flo asks, “What about the real mother? What does she get?”
Reese replies she’ll have a lifetime to forget the worst night of her life and he’s certain she’ll have other children. After Reese has gone, Carter Walton and Steffy Forrester Spencer arrive. He goes through the paperwork and asks Florence to sign the termination of parental rights. She tears up. Steffy respects if she’s changed her mind, but Florence is ready.
