The Bold & the Beautiful

Last Week...

Steffy lays down the law, Sheila corners Taylor, and Deacon takes a risk. Steffy turns to Finn for advice… but to what end? So far as she knows, Taylor and Deacon are finito. So why does Forrester’s CEO need her husband’s counsel? When Hope and Deke encourage Deacon, you can easily guess what: Taylor, Taylor, Taylor! Speaking of the shrink, she has an extremely awkward encounter with Sheila.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen Poppy, and now Romy Park reveals why she’s “had to temporarily step back from acting.”

Steffy bans Hope from promoting ‘Daylor’, and Deacon imagines Taylor while making love to Sheila. Steffy and Hope argue about their parents — and we don’t mean Ridge and Brook,e but Deacon and Taylor! While Deacon is “reconnecting” with Sheila, his mind wanders to thoughts of Taylor.

Coming Up...

A week of beginnings and, it sure looks like, endings!

Steffy Makes a New Hire

Though Thomas’ return prompted Steffy to pink-slip Deke, she cannot find enough wiggle room in Forrester Creations’ budget to add a new staff member: Dylan, who’s sure to be thrilled that she no longer has to wash dishes at Il Giardino; she can just roam around and gossip now like Jamie and Kingsley!

On the flip side of that coin, the newcomer may be more than a little uncomfortable around the office, because as quickly as it appeared that Will and Electra had gotten back together, they are headed for another rough patch. The reason? Electra demands that her boyfriend come clean and admit whether he and Dylan ever crossed the line.

As we all know, they shared a kiss — and the green-eyed monster in Electra is not going to take that well!

Deacon and Taylor Are Over

In other developments, Steffy once again reads Taylor and Deacon the riot act and informs them that whatever they have going is hereby stopped in its tracks. Steffy has a point, of course; if Sheila found out that her husband had lost his heart to the shrink that she credits with saving her marriage, all hell would break loose.

To her credit, Taylor has tried to tap the brakes. But Deacon can’t stay away from her, or won’t, so it’s only a matter of time before Sheila realizes that she wasn’t the inspiration for her night of passion with “Daddy,” Taylor was!

Logan Launches

Finally, though Katie expresses some qualms about using Eric’s designs as Logan’s first line, Bill insists that they were created while the Forrester patriarch was working for her; the gowns are hers. And just that fast, he’s throwing Logan’s first fashion show.
