Desperate for Kelly to have a counterpart like Steffy had had in Phoebe, Steffy contemplated adoption. Brooke tried to enlist Bill to help her deal with Taylor. Reese defended Taylor against Brooke and promised to be there for whatever Taylor needed. Maya returned home and announced to Brooke and her parents that she and Rick had decided to get a divorce.
