Following Liam’s reaction to her confession of love, Liam doesn't say the words back to her. Instead, he tells her that they have time to figure that out. Steffy tells Liam that she won't sell out her family, so he can play hero for his new girlfriend. There is only one way that she will go along with his plan against Rick. They have to be in it together. He says they will be.

Just not like that. She says then she won't be part of it. Nothing about it feels right. Liam says that Forrester is falling apart and someone needs to clean it up and Steffy is the one to do it. Steffy turns down the offer. She reminds Liam that her dad still wants to be CEO. Ivy comes home and finds Aly and Oliver kissing, and heads upstairs to give them privacy, but Aly stops her and tells her not to go upstairs because Rick is up there with Maya. Ivy becomes fed up with the poor treatment that she and Aly have been receiving at home from Rick and Maya. Ridge assists Caroline in moving on from her marriage in a very romantic and artistic manner. Caroline gets Ridge to literally paint her and then she paints him as they make love. Rick gets a call from Eric and tries to reassure his dad that everything is under control. Rick and Maya play puppet master with Aly, giving her false hope of greenlighting her proposed shoe collection if she will bring them ice cream in bed.

Wanting to see firsthand all of the changes she’s been hearing about at Forrester Creations, Steffy pays an unannounced visit to Rick. She asks him how the view is from the top. He tells her being CEO suits him fine. Steffy asks if it was worth everything he lost. Rick tries to get her to have lunch with Maya, who could use friends. Steffy says she hopes Maya finds some. The visit becomes tense when Steffy voices her disapproval of the way Rick is running the company. The one thing they agree on is that Ridge and Caroline together is disgusting. Steffy informs Rick that she might want to be CEO one day. She warns him not to get too comfortable. Brooke grows concerned about the direction of her future as she reminisces about the people from her past.

She tells him she likes him just the way he is, and she appreciates that he doesn't want to change her either. Deacon says he is concerned about Hope and wants to go see Brooke to see if she has heard from Hope. Quinn says okay, but you can tell she isn't happy about it.

Bill has always been about the bottom line and Forrester has always been a family company. Liam explains that he is structuring it so Bill wouldn't be involved. Liam would run it with Steffy. Ivy doesn't want to go against her family, but she doesn't like what Rick is doing. Liam admits that the problem is Steffy still loves him. Rick calls Ivy to the office, where she runs into Steffy. Ivy tells Steffy that Liam filled her in on the plan and she wants Steffy to do it. Rick has to go.

Quinn stops by Wyatt's with a big box of chocolates. Quinn says she didn't want him to be alone.  Quinn gives Wyatt a cause for concern about her and Deacon’s relationship when she tells him that Deacon went to Brooke's. Deacon tells Brooke he doesn't need to run back to Quinn, even if it is Valentine's Day. Brooke says she thought she could deal with the holiday, but she doesn't want to be alone. Brooke and Deacon have a candid conversation about their lives over a couple of cocktails. She tells him that Ridge turned her down. He just wants to be with Caroline. Deacon says they are family, so if she is ever having a night like this, she can call him. Deacon leaves and Brooke continues to drink. Bill is happy that Liam is still at work even on Valentine's day. He says he has picked up a nice piece of jewelry for Katie. He tries to find out if Liam is spending the holiday with Ivy or Steffy. Bill thinks Liam is crazy to have told Ivy about the plan. Liam tells Bill what Steffy really wants: him. Bill encourages Liam to take Steffy up on her counteroffer to participate in their plan. He says his relationship with Ivy is new. If he can get back with Steffy and run the company, what is he waiting for? All the Spencers would benefit. When Ivy encourages Steffy to join forces with Liam to take Rick down, Steffy reveals her not-so-hidden agenda. Ivy promises not to flaunt her relationship with Liam. She tells Steffy that she trusts Liam. Steffy tells Ivy that if she comes back to Los Angeles, she comes back to all of it -- the CEO position and Liam.
