00:00It works, son.
00:10The MRI is totally clean.
00:12The procedure, the brain surgery that you had, it was successful.
00:17That tumor is gone.
00:21The doctors were able to remove it completely.
00:24What?
00:24I just looked over the scans myself.
00:27It's a major miracle.
00:30I'm not...
00:31You're not leaving us.
00:33You're going to be able to watch your little girl scroll up?
00:50Talk about timing, the itinerary for Italy.
00:54Everything that's going on here.
00:56And the media blast went out, so not everybody's going to expect us to make an appearance.
01:02If we have to cancel, we cancel.
01:03It's fine.
01:05Work is not more important than our children and grandchildren.
01:08It's good to stay flexible.
01:10We don't know how much time we have left with Liam.
01:12It could be a matter of weeks.
01:14Or days.
01:16You're not going to believe this.
01:18What?
01:18I just spoke to my dad, and we've got incredible news.
01:26These bangles are turning out beautifully.
01:29And I mean, this tourmaline is just to die for.
01:34Sorry.
01:35Bad choice of words.
01:38Are you okay?
01:39I know the news of Liam has been hitting you pretty hard.
01:43It's just...
01:45It's just making me question everything.
01:49You know?
01:49How does someone as wonderful as Liam get shot by a monster, have the tenacity to overcome that,
01:56and then be faced with...
01:57with brain cancer?
02:00How does that make sense?
02:01How is that fair?
02:04It's not.
02:04Oh, Dr. Buckingham.
02:32I have been trying to get a hold of you.
02:33I need to speak to you about Liam Spencer.
02:53You said you and Liam used to be close, right?
02:56Yeah, we were.
02:58A long time ago.
03:00I can tell he still really means a lot to you.
03:04Liam was there for me at one of the lowest points of my life.
03:12You know, he's the kind of guy who would throw himself in front of a bullet to save someone he loves,
03:17and that's exactly what he did.
03:19Just knowing that his life is about to be cut short has just made me realize how much I've missed him all these years.
03:30What?
03:30What news?
03:31From Bill?
03:32Yeah, yeah.
03:33He just called me and told me that Liam had some sort of experimental surgery today.
03:38For his gunshot wound?
03:39No, no, for his brain cancer.
03:43And apparently the surgery worked.
03:47He's cured.
03:52What about Liam?
03:53Are you getting any of my text messages?
03:56I've just been so slammed, I haven't had a moment to really take my time.
03:59Well, Finn's been trying to get a hold of you, too.
04:01It's about Liam being discharged.
04:02You, you signed off on that?
04:08I did.
04:09Why would you do that, Grace?
04:11It's so soon.
04:12You just talked to Will and Wyatt and gave your brothers the wonderful news.
04:22This is real.
04:23It's, it's really gone.
04:26Damn right it's gone.
04:28All of it, Liam.
04:29Your brain is totally clear.
04:31They say you're going to make a full recovery.
04:35You're going to grow old with us.
04:37You're going to be with us for a very long time.
04:42It sounds like you two had quite the romance.
04:58Yeah.
04:59Well, it, it was romantic, that's for sure.
05:06You know, even though Liam and I ended way sooner than I would have liked,
05:12he's still the best boyfriend I've ever had.
05:17You know, I can really see that.
05:19He's got a really good vibe.
05:21Yeah, he does.
05:23He's so generous of spirit and kind and he's affectionate.
05:29He really is the whole package.
05:32Traits he and Will definitely did not inherit from their father.
05:36Luckily, none of Bill's sons are anything like him.
05:43You and Liam had a moment together not too long ago, right?
05:47Yeah, that ill Jardina.
05:50It was a while back, though.
05:51It was before we knew he was sick.
05:54Could have gone somewhere.
05:56Me too.
05:56You know, I often wonder if we could have had another chance.
06:05You know, it's one of the main reasons why I came back to L.A.
06:13Now I guess I have to figure out how to say goodbye to Liam forever.
06:16Liam's disease was so far advanced.
06:26That's what we thought.
06:27Finn did exhaustive research.
06:30This treatment must be very fair, very standard art.
06:33Let's not worry about that.
06:34This is great.
06:35This is great news.
06:36I mean, he's better and hats off to the doctors, right?
06:40Yeah.
06:41It's just unreal.
06:42Just when we thought Liam's life was over.
06:44I guess the universe decided to give him another chance.
06:48A new lease on life.
06:49Oh, man.
06:50Yeah, and I could not be happier for him.
06:52For all of us.
06:53You know, Liam was always my cool older brother.
06:55But because of our age difference and, you know, me being away at boarding school,
07:00we didn't get to hang out much.
07:01And I was hoping that when I came back to Los Angeles, I could fix that.
07:04Only it didn't look like it could be possible.
07:06Oh, now it is.
07:08You'll be able to have that bond, that relationship you've always wanted.
07:12And I'm thankful.
07:12And I'm not going to waste a second of it.
07:14This is crazy.
07:16This is incredible.
07:17It's incredible, yeah.
07:18Well, I can't wait to hear the details.
07:20Same.
07:21You know, I'm going to try the hospital, see if I can get some more information.
07:23Yeah, find the doctor.
07:25We need to thank people here.
07:31Grace, what basis did you make that decision?
07:34Liam is still healing from a gunshot wound.
07:36I am well aware of Liam's case, Dr. Forrest.
07:39Then why would you release him into his father's care?
07:41Bill Spencer has zero medical training.
07:43I understand your concern, but I don't have the time to have this discussion right now.
07:47Hello?
07:48Yes, can you hold on for more a second?
07:50Yeah, I was just about to call you.
08:05How are you feeling?
08:10Tired.
08:12Well, maybe you should get some rest.
08:15You won't stay too long.
08:15No, no.
08:18My girls, Kelly and Beth.
08:25You want them to see you like this?
08:30I mean, I'm going to live, aren't I?
08:33Well, they're over at my mom's right now, so I guess I could give the nanny a call and have her bring them over.
08:42Okay.
08:43Hey, can I talk to you for a sec?
08:47Sure, what's up?
08:50Have you had any follow-up communication with Dr. Buckingham?
08:52Just a text message thanking her and her colleague for saving my son's life.
08:56Why?
08:58Oh, no, it's just...
09:00I mean, Bill, this is mind-blowing.
09:02There is no sign of the mass whatsoever.
09:04Yeah, that's amazing, I know.
09:07It is.
09:08Cases like Liam's, they don't usually end up like this.
09:11Like I said.
09:13It's a miracle.
09:15I know you had a little crush on him, but I didn't realize how deep your feelings are in.
09:34It's just you think you have all the time in the world.
09:39You know, and then something happens and it speeds up the clock and it just puts everything else into perspective.
09:47You just start thinking about all the things you wish you could have done.
09:50It's unfortunate, but there's nothing else we could have done to change Liam's fate.
09:58No, it's just...
10:00I just, I wish I could have been there for him, you know?
10:03I wish I could have been a support, a supportive friend, just like how he was for me.
10:07But he didn't, I just, I didn't know.
10:12There's still time.
10:15You know, Liam's gonna need all the love and support you can get until that day.
10:20No, just don't.
10:21I...
10:22You know, I can't even think about that.
10:28He's just so young.
10:32He's so young, it's so unfair, and his goals are just so little.
10:36It's been weighing really heavily on Will, too.
10:38I don't think anybody's ready to lose Liam.
10:44Look, I know my dad's made some boneheaded decisions recently.
10:48Boneheaded?
10:48Well, that's putting it mildly.
10:50He's the reason Luna was out of prison.
10:53I know, I know, and Liam never would have been shot if it weren't for my father.
10:57And I know it may not seem like it, but he is struggling with all the guilt.
11:00Oh, is he struggling?
11:01Good.
11:03He should feel guilty.
11:04And it's gonna be a while, if ever, that I'm gonna forgive him for what he did.
11:07I get it.
11:08He put my daughter in danger.
11:10You get that?
11:11Yeah, I do.
11:11I understand.
11:13But you gotta admit, he's off to a good start with saving Liam.
11:16Must bring Bell tremendous peace, knowing that he could help his son that way.
11:22Any word from the hospital?
11:24I, uh, I reached out to my contact.
11:27Um, there's no new information about Liam, just that Grace signed off on his discharge.
11:37The narrow team contacted me after reviewing the latest scans.
11:43It's an inoperable mess.
11:48Liam was released into Bill's care.
11:51A patient in Liam's condition, not only recovering from a gunshot wound, but also battling a tumor?
11:57You have got to admit that this is odd.
12:00It is not standard protocol.
12:02There's nothing more to this.
12:04He seems bad to me.
12:34better. Yeah, he does. Thank God. I had no idea if this would work. There were no guarantees.
12:45But when Dr. Buckingham came to us with this experimental procedure, there was no time to
12:49talk to anyone, consult with anyone. We just had to go for it. No, we all got lucky. And I think
12:55we're, I mean, I know we're very grateful for what you did. There's nothing I wouldn't do for my boy.
13:04How's my boy doing? Still a little groggy. I'm so beyond grateful that we got rid of that
13:24tumor. As far as the Luna part of this is concerned, I'm so sorry, Liam. I don't know
13:33what I was thinking. I will never forgive myself for endangering you instead. Dad. I love
13:40you, son. And I will do anything and everything for you.
13:45Well, thanks for the surgery.
13:59Ben's about to bring up the girls. I'm sure you're really excited to see Kelly and Beth.
14:04Oh, beyond. Look, I think they're going to be shocked seeing you this way, but, um, but we
14:13will make sure that they know you are going to be okay. Yeah.
14:19We've got some special visitors. Hi, girls. Hi, honey. Hi, sweetie. Hi, sweetie. Daddy's been waiting to see you.
14:32So I know it might be a little intimidating seeing your dad like this. He was at the hospital,
14:39but the good news is everything is going to be okay and there's nothing to worry about. Okay?
14:46Do you want to go say hi to him? Okay.
14:50Get out of your way.
14:51Beth. Kelly. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here.
14:54Come here. Come here. Come here. Are you all right, Daddy?
14:57Oh. Now that you guys are here, I'm, like, the best ever.
15:06Luke, do you want to see all this cool stuff I got? Look. Look at this thing. Put it on your finger.
15:11It tells you, it tells you your pulse. It's pretty cool. And I got, like, tubes. I got this thing.
15:17And look at my hat. Do you like my hat? I think it's cool. Do you think it's cool?
15:24Just think about what this means to Liam's kids and Steffi, Hope. It's everything, Katie.
15:35You know, their entire world was nearly torn apart. Liam just keeps surprising us all.
15:40Yeah. He took a bullet, beat cancer, and saved our daughter all in one week.
15:44And what can I say? My brother's the man. He's strong. Has a strong will to live. And so much to
15:50live for his precious little girls. Nothing is more important to Liam than his kids.
15:57The comeback kid, huh? Rising above all of it. You're telling me. And by the way,
16:01I'm starting to think the guy's immortal. Cheating death not once, but twice.
16:05It's really surreal when you think about it. Yeah, it's exciting, no doubt.
16:10Still have some questions, as I'm sure you all do. But what matters most is that Liam is going to live.
16:16And Kelly and Beth will still have their father.
16:21You guys have no idea how happy I am to see you.
16:26Did you get hurt, Daddy?
16:30Your Daddy has been through a lot, but he's a real hero.
16:36A hero?
16:38He's the bravest man I know.
16:41And I'm sure it might be a little confusing, maybe even a little scary to see him like this.
16:48What are all these machines?
16:51You know when you get a checkup at the doctor and she listens to your heartbeat?
16:56This machine does the same thing. Well, and it also keeps track of a lot of other cool stuff.
17:03Everyone's been taking care of your father.
17:06Especially Finn.
17:07Finn's a good doctor.
17:09Finn's the best doctor.
17:10Yeah. And your dad is healing really, really well.
17:14Getting better and stronger every day.
17:16Look at this.
17:18Look at that. Look at that. He's going to take you swimming before you know it.
17:23Grandpa's not willing.
17:24You have so much to look forward to.
17:28Your Daddy's not going to miss anything.
17:30No, and he loves you both more than anything. You know that, right?
17:35So he's not going anywhere anytime soon.
17:39Does that mean more Daddy-Daughter dances?
17:42Yes.
17:43Do I get a Daddy-Daughter dance too?
17:45Do you get a double yes?
17:48I love you guys.
17:52We love you too, Daddy.
17:55We love you too, Daddy.
17:57Do you guys?
17:59Do you guys?
18:01Do you guys?
18:03Do you guys?
18:09Best million I ever spent.
18:11It is a grade 4 tumor in the cerebellum.
18:26I need to be in there with him.
18:27He's in good hands.
18:28But they said brain bleed.
18:29Brain bleed.
18:30You're positive.
18:31Rarely do we see patients his age with tumors like this.
18:35Is there any real hope for my son, Dr. Buckingham?
18:39What if I told you there is?
18:49The tumor is...
19:02It's gone.
19:02It's gone.
19:04It's gone.
19:04100% removed.
19:06No, no, no, no.
19:08No.
19:10We're more than involved or engaged
19:19So that should put an end to the Ridge Brook redo thing
19:23Here's a look ahead
19:24The only person in this world for you is Brook
19:27There are still a lot of unanswered questions
19:30What really happened to you leave?
