At Forrester, Steffy and Liam continued to talk about how delusional Deacon was for his theories about Sheila, and she asserted that she'd told him so. Liam and Steffy agreed that she'd killed Sheila in self-defense. Steffy felt that they couldn't move on as long as Deacon was concocting stories, and she just wanted to get on with their lives.

Steffy wanted badly to get back to normal, and Liam agreed that it just needed to be over. Steffy stated that Deacon was unable to let Sheila go. Liam said he'd normally advise her to cut Deacon some slack, but it was unacceptable that Deacon's actions were hurting Steffy. Steffy shared that Finn was just as concerned but had no sway over Deacon, even as Sheila's son.

Steffy concluded that Sheila would have no sway over their lives ever again. It felt good to Steffy to say it, and Liam admitted he could relate. Steffy stated that Sheila had somehow avoided justice until the night Steffy had defended herself with the knife. Liam replied that, for the first time in ages, Steffy could relax and not look over her shoulder. Steffy restated that Deacon was an idiot if he thought Sheila was alive.

Steffy decided not to waste Liam's time by talking about Sheila. Liam stated that he was glad to talk to her anytime. She knew it but pointed out that he had a life, too. He replied that his priorities were his daughters, and Steffy happened to be one of their mothers. He explained that he was soul-searching to become the best man and father he could be.

Steffy told Liam that he was terrific as he was, but he called her biased. He recalled that they'd been extremely close and fiercely in love. He stated that a love like that didn't just die.

At the cliff house, Hope told Finn that Deacon's notions about Sheila were beyond bizarre, but she wondered how Finn would feel if, against all odds, Deacon was right about Sheila. Finn stated that Sheila had come with a lot of baggage, and he shouldn't have any feelings at all for her. He admitted that he had felt a connection, one that he'd never understood. As far as whether he wanted Sheila dead, stabbed to death by his wife, the answer was no.

Finn asked if he sounded crazy and why he wasn't just relieved that Sheila was gone. It wasn't like Sheila had been in his life, and he'd been raised by amazing parents. For the few moments that he'd had alone with Sheila when she'd shown up at his wedding, he had been thrilled to finally meet her and have the puzzle pieces connect. What didn't make sense to him was how he could still feel for Sheila, who'd almost taken everything that had mattered to him. He concluded that whatever his feelings were, they meant nothing compared to his feelings for Steffy, the kids, and their happiness.

Hope stated that Finn was way overdue for a husband and father of the year nomination. She said he had unwavering devotion to his wife and kids and always put them first. Finn asked if Liam deserved a nod. Hope decided Liam could have it for Father of the Year, but Hope was nominating Finn for Husband and Father of the Year.

Finn was glad he and Liam weren't in competition. Hope guessed Finn loved it. "Being married to Steffy? Yeah. And being the father to two of the most splendiferous kids?" he asked. He laughed, saying he'd gotten that word from Kelly. Hope admired Finn for being a good man and said Steffy should know that she was lucky to have him.

At Il Giardino, Lauren affirmed that, though crazy, it was true that Sheila had an identical look-alike. Deacon concluded that it meant he wasn't crazy for seeing Sheila's face, and yet the body had ten toes. Deacon questioned how it was possible. Lauren called it mind-blowing. Lauren stated that the nightmare of Sheila had begun with her, and she'd been happy that it had ended with Steffy. He replied that maybe it hadn't, and he asked to hear all she knew about Sheila and Sugar.

Deacon figured it was hard for Lauren to relive things. He surely hadn't seen the Sugar thing coming, and Sheila had never said anything about it. Lauren didn't know why he'd let a woman like Sheila into his life. Deacon wasn't entirely sure, either, but it had happened, leaving him with a new Sheila mystery to solve.

Lauren recounted the history of Sheila and Sugar, for whom Sheila had promised to get surgery. After the pair had made it to South America, Sheila had gotten the surgeon to make Sugar look exactly like Sheila. Lauren said Sheila had been proud of pulling it off. Deacon, who'd once thought he'd been crazy, was convinced that the cremated body had been Sugar's.

Later, Lauren told Deacon that Sugar had almost gotten away with attacking Lauren's son and framing Sheila. Deacon asked how Sugar had gotten busted. Lauren recalled that it hadn't made sense to her that Sheila would attack Scotty, whom Sheila had loved. Lauren had visited Sheila after she'd been arrested, and Lauren had noticed that Sheila, who'd had a severe ankle injury, hadn't been limping. The police had confirmed that the fingerprints hadn't matched, and Sugar had confessed to doing it as revenge on Sheila, who'd taken Sugar's face and freedom.

Deacon concluded that Sugar had it out for Sheila, but Lauren noted that even though Sugar would love to get revenge, Sugar was still in prison for her crimes. "Unless..." Deacon responded. He asked what Sugar's real name was, and Lauren said it was Janet Webber. He figured he had to learn all he could about her. As Lauren prepared to leave, she hoped Deacon was wrong, and it really had been Sheila who'd been cremated.

Lauren exited, and Deacon looked at the picture of Sheila on the laptop again. He asked Sheila what had happened to her.
