Hugging his wife, Bo said they just needed to all pull together because they had another child to share their lives with.

9/9 Bo and Hope kiss outside the church the day Chloe is getting married. Chelsea loved the perks of being Bo and Billie's daughter, but she was not making it easy for them. Patrick and Billie stayed close together and hoped Chelsea got the message that he was off-limits to her. Bo was angry that Lockhart was there with Billie and wanted to know what he was doing there? Hope tried to mediate and say that it was okay for Bo to be protective of Chelsea, but it was not okay for him to be jealous of Billie and Patrick. Cute scenes as the wedding begins and JT is the ring bearer.

They walk into the reception and see Patrick and Chelsea standing together and Bo gives a look that could kill. Victor announces Brady & Chloe as they arrive for their reception and enjoy their first dance together, as Bo and Hope and other couples watch them together and soon other couples join them on the dance floor. Patrick makes it clear he is with Chelsea at the reception as he wants to talk to her. She badgers him into having one dance with her or no deal. Max dances with Chelsea.

Bo's pleased with the breakthrough while Billie confides her frustration to Hope who agrees that they should not back off from Chelsea.

10/3 On the boat, Billie and Hope felt like Chelsea hated them both while Bo explained that sometimes girls just found it easier to talk to their fathers than their mothers. Hope grudgingly agreed when Bo reminded her that Shawn found it easier to talk to her than him. After Bo assured them that Chelsea had plans and would call them later, Billie apologized for butting in on their evening but a gracious Hope told her it was fine because she was there to set things straight with her daughter. A happier Billie left to go meet Patrick but thanked Hope for backing her up with Chelsea on her way out. After Billie left, Bo wondered why women could not see that Patrick was trouble. Hope started to stick up for Patrick but wisely changed the subject to the apple pie she bought for Bo. Over their snack, Bo casually admitted he gave Chelsea $250.00, to which a disbelieving Hope warned Bo that his daughter was playing him. Bo insisted that she needed the money for necessities and would not have lied to him. After they chowed down on the dessert, they headed off for the bedroom.

10/24 At Bo and Hope's house, Chelsea arrived and asked Bo if she could talk to him about Abby and Jack. Bo commented that Abby was lucky to have a caring friend like Chelsea, but Chelsea thought Hope would still call her spoiled. Bo protested and explained that Hope was just concerned and knew that Chelsea had been through a lot of rough stuff. Chelsea was thankful that Bo was cool with everything, but Bo told her he still was not cool with Patrick. When Chelsea explained that Patrick had helped her with money and other things, Bo told her he did not want her to depend on Patrick but instead know that she could always count on her parents. Bo asked Chelsea about the $250 he gave her, but Chelsea explained that she already spent the money on a donation to the leukemia walk and underwear. Slightly embarrassed, Bo admitted that he did not realize how much more expensive things were for daughters. Chelsea happily explained that she had dry cleaning and her hair to pay for as Bo handed her another $250.

After Bo asked her to promise to be more responsible with her money, Chelsea asked him to promise not to tell Billie, just as she walked in. Chelsea avoided the question by thanking Bo before heading out. Billie questioned Bo about their chat, and Bo told her that he tried to instill in her the importance of holding on to her money. When talk turned to Patrick again, Billie tried to reassure Bo that Patrick was only interested in her and not Chelsea. Billie asked Bo to trust her, but Bo responded that if she was wrong, their daughter would suffer.

Hope arrived at Jennifer's to whisk her away to a day spa to relax. Jennifer resisted but Jack insisted that it would be better for both of them if she went to the spa. Jennifer reluctantly agreed and left with Hope. Once they were gone, Jack hopped onto the computer and then called Billie over for "a matter of life and death." When Billie arrived, Jack asked her to keep another secret for him. Billie refused at first, but relented when she realized she could not let Jack down. Once Billie promised to keep his secret, Jack asked her to help him commit suicide. At the day spa, Jennifer tried to beg off but Hope would not let her leave. After getting a relaxing massage, Jennifer thanked Hope for helping her but insisted that she had to get home to Jack and figure out what he was hiding to protect her and Abby. Later at the spa, Chelsea showed up and ordered the platinum package while Hope watched nearby as Chelsea gave an employee a wad of cash.

Chelsea snarks that Hope is only talking to her because Bo asked her too. Hope tells her that she is part of her family now and invites Chelsea to come over for dinner to get to know her brothers. Hope suggests that if Chelsea makes a little bit of effort, she would find that things aren’t really all that bad. Chelsea snarks that Hope is acting like her mother not her step-mom. Chelsea gives her advice that just because Hope is married to her dad doesn’t mean she is safe, an as long as Billie is around she warns that Hope should watch her back.

Jennifer was unsure and worried that Jack should rest, but Jack insisted and suggested that Mickey and Maggie could watch little Jack for them. Jennifer finally relented and the group headed out.

Philip asked Shawn about his mechanic shop just as Hope and Bo came over. A clearly upset Hope pushed Shawn about returning to college, but he refused and told her that he needed to make his own decisions. After Shawn left again, Hope turned to Mimi and asked her to talk to Shawn about college, but Mimi told Hope that she respected his right to make a decision and that she would not talk him out of it.

Bo explained that he loved Shawn and Zack but that his mother only wanted what was best for him.

In the corner, Hope sat next to Belle and told her that she heard that Belle thought Shawn was making a mistake in dropping out of college.
