Weds Oct 25 recap of B&B: Eric’s coughing becomes worse as Lauren and Esther visit for the fashion show, and RJ and Donna are more concerned than ever.
Tuesday’s B&B recap: Eric Swears Katie to Secrecy, Refusing to Let Faddish Ridge Ruin His Legacy, and Weepy RJ Tells Luna He Needs to Tell His Dad the Truth
In the design room, Lana tries on one of Eric’s gowns and finds it spectacular.
When she leaves, Eric starts coughing and covers up the severity of it to RJ.
In the hall, Lauren Fenmore and Esther Valentine (Tracey Bregman & Kate Linder) arrive and Esther’s so grateful that she took her.
Lauren knows she’s always wanted a Forrester Original. Luna greets them and Esther talks about how magical her flight was. “I mean flying in the clouds, champagne in hand and arriving in Los Angeles?”
She can’t believe she’s about to meet the Eric Forrester and wear a gown just like Mrs. Chancellor used to wear.
In the room where the runway is, Charlie’s on a call with Pammy, begging her to come to the fashion show.
She’s got to bake lemon bars.
He misses her but by the time he gets the words out, she’s hung up.
“I’m such a loser when it comes to love,” he says, sitting down sadly.
At home, Donna tells Katie that Eric’s insistent of living while he’s still alive.
Katie looks over the fashions.
Donna recaps her last conversations with Eric before the diagnosis and prognosis that he’d be dead in six months.
Donna knows he’s older but still thought they had more time.
Katie hugs her and suggests she savor the time they have. Donna tears up.
She’ll try but she’s so afraid for her husband.
Lauren greets Eric with Luna and he introduces RJ.
She hopes he’s heard good things about her. RJ says, “Um….” and Eric tells the kids to go.
He thinks Lauren’s as beautiful as ever.
She’s glad he invited her. He calls this his best line ever, his grand finale, making Lauren curious.
She asks why he’s not in his office and he calls it a situation he hopes to resolve.
He’s vague when he talks about being unsure how much time he has left.

Outside in the hall at Forrester, Luna admires Esther’s purse. Esther tells her it was a gift from Mrs. C, the woman she worked for.
RJ greets her and she fangirls. “I follow you online.”

They go and he worries about his granddad.
Esther tidies Pam’s desk up. Charlie finds her and grips her arm, thinking she’s stealing. “Not so fast, Lady.”
He reaches into her purse and finds her feather duster. “I’m a compulsive cleaner,” she admits.
He is too. They introduce each other and she tells him why she’s there.
They seem to make a connection and stare into each other’s eyes.
Lauren takes her to the design room where Eric’s busy coughing away and his hand shaking uncontrollably.
He perks up when they come in.
Esther’s mesmerized by the man. They discuss Mrs. C and what a wonderful woman she was, how elegant she was when wearing one of Eric’s garments.
Once they’re gone, Eric’s coughing is almost unmanageable.
He coughs into his hanky and blood appears.
Angrily, he shoves it into the waste basket and starts touching the gowns, noticing his hands aren’t cooperating.
