THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Finn Knows His Toes; Hope Lays Into Thomas

Tuesday’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful featured two key story points. First, Finn (Tanner Novlan) is finally using his doctor brain/skills …  and putting all the pieces together to come to the conclusion that his bio-mom, the evil Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown), faked her own death, and her cut-off toe (the one that was supposedly severed when Sheila was attacked by a bear) that was presented as evidence, may not be as it appears.

Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), who is in Finn’s office asks her husband, “You really think Sheila Carter cut off her own toe?” Finn replies, “You always told me she was capable of anything. She knew that we would never stop looking for her. Faking her own death was the only way out.”

Meanwhile, while hiding out at Deacon’s (Sean Kanan), Sheila is painting all nine of her toenails, and goes on to herself about how sacrificing her toe for her freedom is a little price to pay.  Later, Sheila tells Deacon about her sacrifice and the agony she went through to stay out of prison and that she will never turn herself in. Deacon tells her it’s time to do just that, or he will turn her in! Sheila is looking mighty pissed off to hear this from Deacon.

Back at Finn’s office, Finn and then Steffy examine Sheila’s toe under the microscope, where he points out that it’s too clean, there are no marks from a bear attack.  Sheila had to have done this to herself. Steffy is freaked knowing Sheila is alive, but Finn promises to never let Sheila hurt them again, professing, “I will find Sheila Carter and she will go to prison for the rest of her life!”

In the showdown we’ve been waiting for, Hope (Annika Noelle) throws down on Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) in the offices of Forrester Creations.  Hope asks Thomas how he can even have the nerve to show his face around the company, adding  “You really are shameless, aren’t you?” She goes to say that she believed in him.  Thomas tries to get a word in edge-wise to attempt to somehow explain his machinations, but Hope shuts him down before he can speak. Hope calls him out for sabotaging Brooke and Ridge’s marriage and using Douglas, his son to do it. Thomas says he can handle everything else falling apart around him, but not his connection to Hope and his son.

Hope is devastated by Thomas’ devious plot to call CPS posing as her mother.  She points out that the call never should have been made and he should never have asked their son to lie. “Now he doesn’t even want to see you anymore,” she exclaims.  Thomas doesn’t believe it, but Hope says it’s true and it’s all his doing.  Just then, Thomas starts blaming Donna. That was the final straw, and Hope finally loses it and screams, “Stop, Thomas! This is on you! You were the one who put him in the middle of this! I can’t believe I ever trusted you again.” She really goes for Thomas’ jugular when Hope says Liam and her mother were right about him all along.  Thomas asks Hope not to give up on him.  Shocked, he even had the nerve to ask her that, an emotional Hope says, “I let my guard down, I did. And then you tried to kiss me. You crossed a line.”  Thomas says he is a one-woman man and that is for Hope. She defiantly responds, “I love Liam. Never you, especially after this betrayal.”

Hope adds that she can’t bear the thought of working with Thomas again.  She ends her tirade by saying to Thomas’ face: “All I see is a sad, pathetic man who kept me from Beth, who didn’t care about his son’s safety so he called CPS on himself.”  Next, Hope leaves the office to which under his breath, Thomas responds, “You didn’t give me a chance to explain.”

As the episode came to its conclusion, we go back to Sheila outside of Deacon’s, now donning a blonde wig and in full disguise, and she says … “There always a way out.”  We fade to black … but not before a signature scary look from Kimberlin Brown as Sheila!

So, what did you think about Finn deducing the problem with the police evidence of Sheila’s toe? What did you think of the performance of Annika Noelle as Hope gave Thomas a piece of her mind and then some? Share your thoughts in the comment section.  But first, watch the final moments from today’s B&B below.

I am so over Sheila. Thank goodness Finn’s coming to the rescue. But I’m sure it won’t be pretty. I’m worried about Hayes. Annika always plays Hope as so sweet and mild. It was great to see her finally break out of the Thomas fog she had been in. But Thomas never hears anyone. I don’t see a bright future for him. Not an easy role for Matthew to play. And he’s also done it well.

rose,
You are right. Sometimes I wish I could just shake Hope, so naive and trusting. Wait until she finds out her father has been shacking up with Sheila, to put it bluntly. I have also been worried about Sheila kidnapping Hayes and why haven’t Steffy and Finn even given a thought to their kids protection, especially Hayes against this crazy woman?

I don’t know how Finn knew it was gt Sheila’s right foot !

Sharon…I’ve watched forensic shows based on real life cases like “Bones.” It’s amazing what experts can make of bodies they are left with to find answers to their deaths. And Finn was a surgeon. And it is a soap. Sorry. Not a happy topic. :)))

Sheila,
No one probably. The police I’m sure told everyone in the beginning it was from her right foot, no big secret here.

I’m sure all this excitement over catching Sheila is for naught. That dumb cop will never catch her, she’s outsmarted smarter than him. I thought she’d head right for the beech house and kidnap the baby, she’s not through with her terror yet. I just hope this will be the end of her, enough is enough!

Steffy and Finn have hardly been home since Sheila showed up. They are just leaving her the space she needs to grab that baby. They should have taken the kids and kept them at Eric’s house until that witch is captured.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Katie Stands Up to Brooke, ‘I Have Spent My Entire Life Sacrificing My Happiness for Yours. But No More!’

Katie and Brooke

On Thursday, October 15 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Heather Tom continues to rack up scenes for her 2027 Daytime Emmy reel after Katie lays the smackdown on Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) in a boiling over point in their sisterly feud.

In story, Brooke has learned that Zende (Delon de Metz) has defected from Forrester Creations and come to work for Katie at warring fashion house Logan.  After she confronts her sister, for what Brooke views as another betrayal, Katie shows that she will no longer be stepped on and over by her sister.

During the argument, Katie points out (and we are glad that she did), that Brooke previously disowned her from the family. She told Katie she was no longer welcome at the Forrester mansion and along with their sister, Donna (Jennifer Gareis), kicked her to the curb.

KATIE WON’T BACK DOWN

Fast-forward to yesterday’s B&B, and here was the pointed dialog delivered by Katie to Brooke: “I’m not going to apologize for Logan’s success. I’m not going to apologize for building a company and a brand practically overnight. And if Forrester is really on the ropes, then maybe you should look internally at how you’re treating your talent,” says Katie. She adds, “Sounds to me like you’re not running a very good business. Because that’s what this is, Brooke. It’s business.”

Brooke fires back, “No, Katie. This is more than business. This is a personal vendetta against me, and it’s gone too far. I don’t like looking at you and thinking that I don’t know my sister. I don’t like that feeling. What about you? Don’t you want this war to end?”

Appalled, Katie tells Brooke, “You want to end the war? You want to stop fighting and come together as sisters, right? You want to stop fighting and come together as sisters, right? Where have I heard those words?”

TOSSING A LOGAN OUT OF THE FAMILY

Just then, Katie reminds Brooke she came to set things right with her months ago only to be thrown out of the family. Katie tells Brooke, “Oh, yeah. I remember I said them to you the night you told me that I was no longer your family … that I was no longer your sister.”

A defiant Katie tells off Brooke, “You barge in. You’re ranting about Zende and how I’m attacking Forrester or attacking you. Well, how many times have you attacked me? Huh? I don’t have to take this anymore. I don’t have to be victim to your emotional manipulation. I have spent my entire life sacrificing my happiness for yours. But no more!”

As Brooke is left reeling and in tears, Katie delivers the final blow to their relationship as they knew it. “You think that I should talk Hope (Annika Noelle) and Zende into going back to Forrester? Why should I do that? I’m not giving them up. I’m not giving up on Zende. I’m not giving up Hope. I’m not giving up my name. I am not backing down. Are you listening to me, Brooke? Are you hearing me? Because I will never back down!”

You can catch the aforementioned scene featuring Heather Tom and Katherine Kelly Lang below.

Now weigh-in: Do you feel Katie is completely justified in everything she said to Brooke? Do you want Katie to crumble the dysfunctional house of Forrester Creations?  Should Heather Tom just get ready for another Emmy come next year, and heck, she might even win this year, since she is nominated for a completely different storyline for the 53rd annual Daytime Emmys Awards, which would make her the winningest daytime actress of all-time!

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Brooke Confronts Katie On Her Vendetta Against Her and Claims, ‘It Breaks My Heart’

Brooke and Katie

The feud between the Logan sisters continues to escalate after Katie (Heather Tom) once again gain another employee acquisition from a former disgruntled Forrester Creations designer.

During the October 14 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Zende (Delon de Metz) along with Dylan (Sydney Bullock) show up at Logan. Zende informs a stunned Hope (Annika Noelle), Katie, Will (Crew Morrow) and Deke (Harrison Cone), that he quit Forrester and would like to join them. Katie and Hope are thrilled. Will is more impressed than ever with Dylan.

Back at Forrester Creations, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) walks into the CEO office where Eric (John McCook) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) inform her that Zende quit and has gone to work for Katie. The three of them realize things are changing within their company because of Katie, but refuse to look at their part in their own implosion!

BROOKE VS. KATIE ROUND 10

Now angered, Brooke hightails it to Logan to confront her sister. Ready for Brooke to come at her, she tells her sister that she offered Zende an opportunity and he took it. He was being under-valued at Forrester.

Brooke fires back that Katie lied to him, just like she did to Hope. She claims Katie is trying to build Forrester 2.o to spite her! Katie is not deterred by Brooke. She tells her sister to look around – that this is what she and Hope are doing – building a new company.

Continuing on her rant, Brooke says she feels stabbed in the back by her own sister, and her daughter hasn’t help with that feeling. Hope just stands there. Brooke tells Katie that they are truly suffering over at Forrester. Business is not good. She demands, “It has to stop!”

Katie snarks back that this is just business. However, Brooke throws down on her sister, arguing that this is a personal vendetta against her. “It’s revenge,” declares Brooke, and, “It breaks my heart.”

But, does it truly break Brooke’s heart? Is she just saying that to save Forrester from losing any more design talent to Logan? Do you hope Katie pays Brooke back for going after Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) years ago and always talking down to her?

Now, let us know via the comment section how you want the sisterly feud to come to a conclusion. Do you want Katie to successfully take down Brooke and Forrester Creations … or Brooke to take down all of Katie’s hopes and dreams? Weigh-in!

Guillermo

The Tuesday, October 13 episode of Dancing With the Stars brought with it the end of the line for a fan favorite, who for five weeks was able to hang in the competition for the coveted Mirrorball Trophy, due to the at-home voting, and not for his exceptional dance prowess.

With 11 pairs remaining, the couples hit the ballroom dance floor to songs by previous Super Bowl Halftime Show performers for “Super Bowl Night” with special guest judge ESPN’s Joe Buck.

The sports commentator joined Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough, and Bruno Tonioli at the judges table to offer up his thoughts on the dance routines and athleticism set before him throughout the night.

THE RESULTS

When it time for the results following the final commercial break, DWTS hosts, Alfonso and Julianne, named Julia and Ezra, Maura and Mark, Jackson and Emma, Harry and Jenna, and Amber and Pasha safe. They were followed by: Ezra and Daniella, Jenna and Val, Tatyana and Jan, and Connor and Rylee.

That left the last two pairs on the stage, although not necessarily the bottom two in the voting between Tyler Cameron and Sharna Burgess and Guillermo Rodriguez and Witney Carson. As the tension mounted, especially because Cameron had delivered his best dance of the season thus far, it was revealed that Guillermo and Witney were eliminated.

Speaking to the cameras following his elimination, the ‘Jimmy Kimmel’ sidekick, shared, “I want to say thank you to all the audience, thank you to everyone and Dancing with the Stars. I had a lot of fun, it was great. Witney, I love you for teaching me how to dance, thank you so much.”
