- Brooke Logan: I am trying to protect my daughter. I don't want her life to be ripped apart again. You can't get involved with Bridget, Nick. You just can't let that happen.
- Bridget Forrester: I know. I know. You're just so confused. And you're also cruel, narcissistic, insensitive and very, very selfish.
- Brooke Logan: [to Nick] Are you gonna say something?
- Dominick Marone: I think your kid has a point.
- [last lines]
- Dominick Marone: Turning back to what? You made your choice, Brooke. I put my feelings on the line for you. You knew where I stood.
- Brooke Logan: Stood?
- Dominick Marone: Yeah, stood. I'm gettin' old, you know? Life's about living, not waiting around for some dream that may never happen. I'm going upstairs. You know, I really thought it'd be you up here.
- Bridget Forrester: Mother, I have managed my life with class and restraint. And I've stayed out of your personal business with Nick 'cause I didn't want to be involved in your affairs. But I watched you weave yourself in and out of Nick's life, always being sold on the same bill of goods, your "destiny." Was it Ridge this time, or is it gonna be Nick? Or - or do you even know? 'Cause frankly, Mother, I don't think destiny exists for you. I think it's just a way of, you know, keeping all of your options open, your need to be desired and loved by every man that gets close to you. Well, I am done watching. The best times of my life were spent with Nick, and I'd be willing to bet the best time of his life was when he was married to me. Now, we might not have had the dramatic ups and downs that you two had together, but what we had was real and pure. And most importantly, I was someone that he could count on. And I gave you an incredible opportunity. I ended my marriage so that you and Nick could be together, and you botched that. But still, against my better judgment, I'm gonna give you that same opportunity, right here, right now. Are you still in love with Nick? Would you rather be with Nick than be with Ridge? You know, now's your chance, Mom. It's now or never.
- Dominick Marone: That's a hell of a question. I'd kind of like to hear that answer myself.
