In order for them to find distraction from the Ridge drama, Donna arranges a rendezvous for Brooke with her friend Doug Sprain, a sports doctor, while Bill sets Caroline up with Dylan Smith, an editor at Spencer Publications. Both single ladies do not feel like it very much, but end up taking a chance and at the same restaurant no less. Bill speaks to Robin, one of his society editors, to plant a story about Caroline's availability in the paper. Margo thinks it is a rather bad idea. Meanwhile, Thorne expresses his concerns about Deveney Dixon's strange behavior to Ridge. The brothers decide to get a drink, also at the Cafe Russe. The blind dates of Caroline and Brooke get off to a rather chilly start, especially when the women spot each other. Ridge and Thorne see Brooke and Caroline there with other men and leave rather upset because apparently both have moved on already.
