Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, California. Fashion house Forrester Creations unveils it's winter/ fall collection. The models strut the catwalk and the paparazzi go wild. Eric Forrester, the head designer and founder of the company, is busy backstage making sure his latest collection is his best yet. Eric's personal assistant Margo Lynley stands by his side as he excitedly celebrates this milestone; 20 years of running his own fashion empire. Ridge, Eric's eldest son, designer and vice-president of the company, waits on the sidelines less than impressed with his father's latest designs. Ridge witnesses Eric's flirty behavior with Margo and wonders if the two are having an affair. He mentions this possibility to younger brother Thorne, whom is the technical director of the company. Thorne stands loyal to his father and believes Ridge is just trying to undermine Eric. Thorne senses his older brothers eagerness to step into their father's shoes and take over the reins of the company. Later that evening, Eric is still on a high from the success of the showing. He shares his enthusiasm with Ridge. They begin discussing Ridge's relationship with Caroline Spencer. Bill Spencer, publishing baron of Spencer Publications and Caroline's father, enters the room and overhears the father and son conversation. He warns Ridge away from his daughter. Bill believes that Ridge is nothing but a playboy who will only end up breaking his daughters heart. Bill threatens to expose Ridge for the real man that he is. Meanwhile, teenager Katie Logan stares into the mirror and fantasizes about having a real date with a guy.
