Mark brings Taylor's death certificate to Ridge as a way to reassure him that Taylor is dead but Mark has to admit that the signature on the certificate is from an unknown source. Ridge later calls Nick and asks for his help. Ridge dresses and sneaks from the hospital. Nick takes Thorne to Taylor's grave at Ridge's request. Ridge later arrives and tells them that they are going to dig up the grave, so he can be sure that Taylor is really dead. Thorne refuses to participate but eventually gets roped into in when Ridge and Nick begin digging.
