Key Takeaways
- Donna didn’t appreciate getting the silent treatment from Eric.
- Eric confronted Donna about keeping a secret from him.
- The Forrester patriarch could be suffering another health crisis.
Donna Gets the Silent Treatment
Donna (Jennifer Gareis) and Eric (John McCook) returned to the Forrester mansion after watching Logan’s runway show. She wanted to know why her husband was giving her the silent treatment. He didn’t say a word after they left Forrester Creations.
Donna wanted Eric to know how sorry she was for keeping this secret. He asked her what she was thinking. He wanted to know how she could keep this secret from him.
Donna admitted that she hated hiding it. She didn’t know that Katie (Heather Tom) and Bill (Don Diamont) were going to change the launch date of their new line featuring Hope (Annika Noelle).
Eric reminded Donna that her loyalty belonged to her husband. He wondered whether she was loyal to Forrester or to Logan.
Eric Resorts to Hypocrisy
In that moment, Eric seemed to forget about his retirement woes. Earlier this year, he was pushed out of his own company by Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang).
They thought he should retire and rest for the sake of his health. But Eric still wanted to design. So, he agreed to join Logan’s fashion house.
At first, he agreed to mentor Katie. Then, he volunteered to become the lead designer of their debut collection. He snuck around at Logan for weeks before his secret came out.
Eric backed out when he didn’t like working with Dollar Bill. He couldn’t handle the time crunch. Logan still moved forward with his designs, even after stepping down.
Is Eric Dealing With Another Health Setback?
Eric rewrote the history of what happened during his brief retirement. Did he seemingly forget? Or did he conveniently forget to create a wedge between himself and Donna?
He’s acting as if Katie had betrayed him. But he was responsible for joining Logan after he was pushed into retirement.
Eric claims that he was manipulated by Katie and Bill. He argued that they forced him to make designs. He’s now erased the idea that he went to them because his entire family had written him off. Is Eric suffering from memory issues or simply choosing to gloss over facts from his recent history?
