Taylor voices her frustration to Jack that Brooke went up to Big Bear during a snow storm despite being in the final stages of her pregnancy. She is concerned about the bond that the joint experience of child birth might have created between Ridge and Brooke. Sheila finds out from Eric that Ridge helped Brooke to deliver the baby in the cabin. She makes a beeline to the hospital and tells Dr. Peters that she would love to learn more about genetics. Tracy is impressed and eventually opens up to Sheila volunteering at her lab. Sheila gets panicky, though, when Tracy explains that she will not get security clearance for the genetics lab until a couple of weeks because of a mandatory security background check. Brooke and Ridge admire the baby. She thanks him for his support to get her through delivery. They are then picked up by a helicopter and brought back to Los Angeles.
