Part 5 - Good Bye Stephanie
Pod-Eric was in control of Eric Forrester's life till the day Brooke Logan dumped his "son" Ridge at the altar and called off their wedding.
There were too many question marks and Stephanie had no choice other then to come clean and tell Eric that Ridge is not his son.
At first Eric refused to believe it and reminded Stephanie how 40+ years ago she looked him in the eye and swore that he is the father.
When Stephanie revealed that his nemesis Massimo Marone is Ridge's biological father, the truth sank in and Eric erupted. He accused Stephanie of sleeping around, lying and causing him to break Beth Logan's heart in order to do the right thing and marry her.
Eric refused to listen to Stephanie's empty excuses, asked her "What am I to you? Am I a partner and an equal, or am I just another one of your children? With good intentions, but not someone to really be trusted to make their own decisions", and told Stephanie that from now on he is the one calling the shots. Eric also accused Stephanie of making all the decisions and manipulating everybody else.
Totally disgusted, Eric told Stephanie that she is welcome to stay in the mansion with all the lies and the memories based on lies, and he left saying "Good Bye Stephanie". (Let's hope that this time Eric left Stephanie for good.)
