In an emotional and explosive cliffhanger Friday episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, the August 8th edition of the CBS daytime drama series brought some closure to the fate of two characters, and it featured powerhouse performances from Scott Clifton and Annika Noelle as Liam and Hope learned the truth from Dr. Grace Buckingham (Cassandra Creech) herself, that Liam never had brain cancer in the first place!

Here’s what went down: After Finn (Tanner Novlan) shows up with Grace at Bill’s (Don Diamont) house, Grace says she wants Liam to know the truth about his brain cancer. Liam and Hope assume it’s back. Grace start to confess sharing, “There is no cancer. There is no tumor.” Liam and Hope agree thanking her for saving him as they herald Grace for her live-saving experimental surgery.

Finn finally interrupts their platitudes, and asks Liam to hear Grace out. Next. Grace tells Liam and Hope that she did “something.” She admits she altered his brains scans and changed them to look like he had a tumor. She goes on to say that the brain mass was never there. She made it look like he had cancer. Liam thinks that’s impossible because he had all the signs of brain cancer, pain, dizziness, etc.

Liam goes on to say, “But you operated on me and I have the stitches on my head to prove it.” Finn explains they are superficial cuts that just required a few stitches. Next, Grace reveals why he felt so sick, because she gave him a prescription to mimic symptoms of a brain tumor, so that she could be the one to cure him.

Getting completely rattled and unglued, Liam asks why she would do that? Hope fumes that she can think of why, “A million reasons.” Suddenly, Liam lunges at Grace as Finn jumps in between them. Liam screams, “You put me through hell! And my family! For months!” Grace cries and all she can say is, “I am sorry.”

Grace wants to explain her actions, but Hope screams, “We don’t want to hear you explain!” She tells her she’s as bad as her ex-husband, Reese, who terrorized her and Liam for months when he stole their baby girl, Beth! Immediately, Hope thinks that Grace must be working with Reese. She says she’s not, but that Reese’s gambling debt was so huge that the bookies demanded the money from her, since he could not do anything about it while in jail. They blackmailed her that if she didn’t come up with the money, they would come after her daughters as well as herself.

Next, Liam says it’s still extortion and that she extorted 1 million dollars from his father, while sh passed herself off as a God. Hope walks over to Grace and gives her a massive bitch-slap and says, You are sick!” Liam tells Grace it doesn’t matter how sorry she is or how scared she was, because she robbed him and his family of months of their lives.

Grace says she is turning herself in to the cops because she cannot live with what she did. Finn says he wanted Liam and Hope to hear all this from Grace before he takes her to the police station. As they head out, a devastated Hope and Liam are shattered as Hope holds her ex-husband in her arms for all that Liam had gone through.

Meanwhile, Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) is on to Li (Naomi Matsuda). She follows Li home and knocks on her door and pretends she is a delivery person, so when Li answers, she wedges her foot in the door. She sees there is a curtain and rips it back to reveal Luna (Lisa Yamada) laying in the bed, and cries, “Luna! She’s alive! My granddaughter is alive!”

Now below, you can check out the key scenes where Grace confesses her heinous plot to Liam and Hope, followed by B&B’s Look Ahead for the action next week where Bill learns of Grace’s deception and vows payback!

Then, let us know, what did you think of the performances of Scott Clifton and Annika Noelle? What will be the upshot of this story for them? Will their shared past with the Buckinghams bring them back together? And what of Grace? Will she try to make a getaway as Finn is taking her to turn herself in? Meanwhile, now that Sheila has found out that Luna is alive, who will she blab the news to first? Finn? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.

Will Grace be punished for her misdeeds? Or will she be like Sheila and Luna, allowed to continue to be on canvas despite the violent and premeditated nature of their crimes? I rather hate the lack of punishment. There are not characters who are just bad but mean and truly criminal. Having Grace be judged so harshly seems unfair. Will we see Paris and Thomas? Was there any storyline to suggest the Buckingham sisters were in danger? Do Bill’s stupid actions in recent years (Sheila? Luna? Treating Katy poorly?) Make him irrelevant? I liked when Bill was a force. I have already sounded off on the endless Brooke Ridge whirlpool. Sigh.

Steffy and Carter

After taking a second pregnancy test on the Friday, September 12 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) freaks out ever more when it come back positive, too. Leading her to shriek, multiple times over, “Oh my God! Oh my God! I’m pregnant!”

As previously reported, CBS and The Bold and the Beautiful have already confirmed that in the story, the baby Steffy is carrying is Carter’s (Lawrence Saint-Victor) which kicks-off their 40th season of storytelling. However, could there be a twist down the line that it’s really Finn’s (Tanner Novlan)?

On Friday’s episode, Carter gets a text from his wife, Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) telling him she wants to talk more about surrogacy later, since she cannot carry Carter’s child, and the couple was exploring ways for them to have a baby. Suddenly, Carter flashes back to waking up next to Steffy on the couch in the office after they had sex the night before in their drunken stupor.

CARTER DEVISES A PLAN

Then, Steffy comes whirling into the office demanding to talk to Carter right away. Steffy is informing Carter that she has to tell Finn about their night together more than ever! A confused Carter asked her what changed, when they agreed to keep their one night together a secret? Carter tells her if she reveals what happened between them, it will tear about all of their lives.

Carter thinks nothing will come of their “mistake” if they keep their mouth shut. Steffy responds, “You’re wrong.” She goes on to explain that she’s pregnant! That declaration stuns Carter and we fade to black.

However, it was the preview for the action next week on The Bold and the Beautiful, that aired at the end of Friday’s episode and is now all over B&B’s social media that is the real tell-tale sign of where this story is heading.

B&B SPOILERS

In a scene airing next week, Carter says to Steffy, “I have a way out of the situation for all of us!” This comes on the heels of Daphne telling Carter she wishes she knew someone who would be their surrogate. So, putting two and two together, it looks like Carter will come up with the idea to pass Steffy and his baby off as the surrogate child of Carter and Daphne.

Look no further than the official B&B spoilers for episodes airing Monday, September 14- Friday, September 18 and the teaser lines of the Steffy/Carter baby drama to back that up below.

Monday, September 14, Steffy’s news complicates things even more with Carter, while on Tuesday, September 15, 2026  Daphne is hopeful she and Carter will be able to find a surrogate and Carter rushes to stop Steffy. On Wednesday, September 16, Carter makes a passionate plea. and by Thursday, September 17, Daphne can’t believe Carter’s suggestion. Then come Cliffhanger Friday, September 18, Steffy is caught off guard.

So, what do you think how it look to be Carter who originated plan to keep the truth from ever coming out, that he and Steffy had sex, and the best way to do this is for Steffy to be the surrogate for Carter and Daphne’s child? How complicated will the cover-up eventually get? Will Steffy fall in love with the baby making this whole thing untenable for her?

Jason and Britt

On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.

Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.

However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.

BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON

Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.

He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.

Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”

General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”

So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Steffy is Shaken to the Core, ‘Oh My God! I’m Pregnant!’

Steffy

On today’s Thursday, September 10 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) discovers she’s pregnant, after taking a home pregnancy test, that will launch a new story arc that will remain front and center for the show in the months ahead.

The life-changing story kicks off the B&B’s 40th season which officially began on September 8. In it, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) is the biological father of Steffy’s unborn child from their drunken night together when both endured turbulent times in their marriages.

Previously, Carter had trouble with Daphne (Murielle Hilaire), when she initially walked out on him, because she could not carrying his child. Meanwhile, Steffy broke up with Finn (Tanner Novlan) while in Monaco over Finn’s mother Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) showing up, who once tried to kill her.

Fast-forward, Carter and Steffy made a pact that no one will ever need to know about their drunken night together, but now with Steffy becoming pregnant it changes everything. Making matters all the worse, Daphne views Steffy as her best friend, in fact, Daphne and Carter have been talking about having a child via surrogacy. While Finn had showed the couple how to start the process of finding a surrogate, Daphne felt just choosing a random person to carry Carter’s child is so impersonal. She would rather have it be someone she knows.

It does not take a scientist to predict … that somehow Steffy will carry the baby pretending to be the surrogate, when she its biological mother, and along the way, the questions become, does she keep the whole thing somehow a secret to herself? Doe Carter find out at some point? Stay tuned to see how this story reveals itself.

At its root, this is a major storyline for Wood, who has already won three Daytime Emmy Lead Actress Awards in her 18 years with The Bold and the Beautiful. In that time, her character of Steffy has experienced multiple pregnancies, given birth to two children, Kelly with Liam (Scott Clifton) as the father, and Hayes with Finn as the father, and endured a miscarriage.

So, what did you think of Steffy getting confirmation she is pregnant and looking mortified when she found out? What will she do next? Will she tell Carter? Will Daphne come to Steffy to ask her to be her surrogate, which Steffy may think will be the answers to her prayers, only for the truth to come out later, or falling in love with the baby since its hers to be begin with?
