Victoria and Billy discuss Chloe’s disapproval of Jana. Kevin explains to Chloe he believes she is overreacting. Gloria agrees Jana is not to be trusted. On the stand, Spencer continues questioning Sharon. She sees Adam appear in the back of the courtroom. Jana enters a bank dressed in disguise, and attempts to get information about a large-sum wire transfer. Victoria confronts Jana about Chloe’s claims. Victor rejects Diane’s offer to spend the day with him, but insists he accompany her after getting a call about Kyle injuring his arm. Sharon and Adam reunite. He informs Vance and Sharon the memory card is missing from the camera. Adam wants to testify to what he saw on the video tape. Chloe insists to Billy that Delia needs to switch schools because she doesn’t trust Jana. The bank calls Billy to inform him that someone was inquiring about a wire transfer, so Billy realizes there’s only one thing he can do. Jack informs Victor that Adam is back from Thailand. Vance informs Sharon and Adam that the prosecution has called Adam to the stand.
Adam takes the stand. As Gloria and Chloe are gossiping about Jana, Jana shows up, furious that Chloe tried to get her fired. With a plan in mind, Gloria manages to snag Jana’s apartment key. Lily reveals to Daniel, Jill and Colin that she’s going to a therapist. Malcolm informs Sofia they could be married by the end of the week, but Sofia relents. On the stand, Spencer mentions Adam’s disappearance to New Orleans the same night Skye fled to Hawaii, and accuses Adam of sending Sharon to kill Skye. Adam begins explaining the footage on the camera but is silenced by the judge. Chloe and Gloria sneak into Jana’s apartment, looking for clues to prove Jana is crazy. Soon after, Jana arrives home. Chloe finds something interesting before Billy catches her and Gloria scurrying away. After her therapy session, Lily calls Malcolm, Neil and Sofia, insisting they can have their wedding at the church. Phyllis asks Malcolm to help with the memory card.
Ashley, Tucker, and Abby visit a park near the Abbott mansion. Ashley tells Tucker that she thinks it would be a great location for the wedding. Jack arrives, telling them that Sharon’s trial does not look hopeful. Ashley and Abby express their concern for Faith’s well being, and insist Sharon is not a killer. Ashley and Tucker head to dinner at Gloworm. Abby tells them she has plans with Kent and will meet them later. Adam attempts to persuade Sharon that her escape from jail would be thoroughly planned and to trust him. Sharon rejects Adam’s offer, insisting she will not risk losing Faith. Sharon tells Adam that if she escapes, they will be living on the run and never be able to come back to Genoa City. Before Adam leaves, Sharon pleads with him to have faith in the jury’s decision and hope for the best possible outcome.
Malcolm and Phyllis are busy attempting to retrieve video footage from the erased memory cards. Phyllis thanks Malcolm for all his help. Malcolm tells Phyllis he really should be planning his wedding. Phyllis gets a call from Billy and must head to Restless Style’s office. Malcolm tells her he will drop the remaining memory cards off with a friend who works in forensics. Neil and Sofia are discussing the last minute arrangements for the wedding. Neil questions if Sofia is ready to marry Malcolm. Sofia is offended, telling Neil she is certainly ready and to not interfere. Malcolm enters and notices the tension between Sofia and Neil. When Neil leaves, Malcolm asks Sofia if she is taking out her frustrations on Neil because Malcolm has been preoccupied with helping Phyllis. Sofia assures Malcolm she is happy and excited to be his wife.
Victor and Michael are evaluating proposals from brokerage firms when Diane greets Kyle, who has just exited the game room. As Diane and Kyle are heading to play, they run into Nick and Summer. The kids go to play, leaving Diane and Nick alone. Nick insists Victor will not appreciate them talking. Victor points out Diane and Nick’s conversation to Michael, telling him Diane is reckless and cannot be trusted. Abby arrives to GCAC just as Victor and Michael are leaving. Irritated because Kent stood her up, Abby asks Victor to stay for a drink. Victor rejects her offer, telling her he has somewhere to be. Michael tells Abby not to give up on her relationship with Victor. Abby decides to join Ashley and Tucker at Gloworm. While getting a drink at the bar, Tucker offers Abby 50% over the share price for her Newman Enterprise stocks. Abby declines, telling Tucker she doesn’t do business with people she doesn’t trust. As Diane is waiting for Victor at Gloworm, Ashley and Tucker are being seated for dinner. Ashley stops to have a word with Diane. Ashley tells Diane that there is life after Victor, and explains how happy she is to be with Tucker.
Jana breaks down to Kevin about the stress Gloria and Chloe have caused. Gloria and Chloe discuss possible motives behind Jana’s fake pregnancy belly. Michael and Lauren inform a furious Phyllis of Daisy’s escape in Canada. Victoria hands Lucy to Daniel and explains she needs a baby-sitter for a couple hours. He arrives at Restless Style with Lucy and Phyllis begins to interrogate him about Canada. Noah visits Sharon in jail. Victor reveals to Nick he hopes they can put aside their differences. Vance calls and informs them the jury has reached a verdict. Adam and Tucker make a deal regarding Adam’s stocks. Chloe and Gloria reveal to Kevin the fake pregnancy belly just as the police arrive to arrest them for burglary.

When Sharon enters, Nick informs Adam he needs a minute alone with her. Tucker calls Michael to discuss business, and Michael gets another call from Victor. Kay and Nikki discuss Tucker’s attempt to take over Newman Enterprises. Kay suggests Nikki visit Victor, especially now that the fate of Sharon will soon be determined. The judge announces that Sharon is found guilty of first degree murder. Vance insists Sharon is feeling sick, and the judge orders the jail matron to escort her to the bathroom. While in the bathroom, Sharon puts her escape into motion. Tucker informs Michael that he has acquired Adam’s stocks and wants to buy more. Victor is outraged by Sharon’s verdict and insists Michael defend her if there’s an appeal. Noah informs Nick that he wants to head back to New York. Sharon continues her escape act in the bathroom just as Adam announces to reporters they intend to appeal. Phyllis gets a call from Malcolm’s friend who informs her he may have found something.
General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Ric’s History of Jealousy Where Elizabeth is Concerned Has Come Back Around
On General Hospital, Ric Lansing (Rick Heart) is about to fall back into dangerous old patterns by the foreshadowing during the Wednesday, August 19 episode. After first coming to see his brother, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and telling him of his plan to propose to Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) his longtime love tonight, Sonny has concerned.
Next, Sonny reminds his brother of what has happened in the past, when things have gone south with Elizabeth and wonders if it’s too soon for him to propose to her. What Ric did not tell Sonny is that he has seen the developing closeness between Sonny’s son, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and Elizabeth, which is propelling his urgent need to propose.
Meanwhile, Dante ran into Elizabeth at the park during a break from their mutual team softball games. She needs help with a bookcase after the game at her house. Dante wants to put it together for her. Later, Dante arrived at Elizabeth’s house, limping after injuring his knee during the game. Head nurse Liz wanted to check out the injury as much as Dante protested, which required him to take off his pants.

RIC BEGINS TO UNRAVEL
Outside Elizabeth’s widow, Ric arrives with a bouquet of roses and the engagement ring. When he leers through the widow he is shocked to see Elizabeth rubbing Dante’s leg while Dante is in his boxer/shorts. He storm troops into the house, demanding to know what is going on here? Both Elizabeth and Dante look surprised by his reaction. In the pick-up of today’s Thursday, August 20 episode (see GH video teaser below), viewers will learn the upshot for all three characters.
A VENGEFUL PAST
As longtime GH fans know, Ric has done some horrible, vengeful things in regards to Elizabeth starting back in 2003 after she lost her baby after Ric’s ex, Faith Rosco pushed her down a flight of stairs. Ric accused Sonny for the accident and to get revenge, Ric kidnapped Carly (who was married to Sonny at the time), and stashed her in a panic room below the house where he was living with Liz.
On top of that, Ric fed his wife Elizabeth birth control pills to keep her from getting pregnant so that they could raise Carly’s baby together after it was born. Eventually, Elizabeth found Carly in the panic room but ended up having a pulmonary embolism. When she woke up in the hospital, Elizabeth was all confused by what happened, and Ric convinced her that her vision of Carly was just a bad dream. Eventually, Elizabeth learned the horrifying truth and divorced Ric.
Years later, Ric noticed the connection between Elizabeth and “Jake Doe” who eventually turned out to be Drew (Billy Miller) A jealous Ric hired Hayden Barnes to show up and claim to be “Jake’s” wife. Elizabeth stepped aside, and when Ric planned to propose to Elizabeth at the 2015 Nurses Ball, Carly exposed his manipulations, and Elizabeth dumped him yet again. And those are just two examples of the lengths Ric will go to for Elizabeth!
So, we ask you, given the history of Elizabeth and Ric, how do you see this playing out with Dante in the picture? How will Ric derail their growing bond? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Steffy and Carter Get Lame Excuses From Their Spouses, and Try to Shake Off Their Night Together
If you caught the Wednesday, August 19 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, and if you were Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor), and your wife, who literally took off, threw of her wedding ring and abandoned their marriage to head to Paris, shows back up saying she overreacted and wants to be with him, would you bother to even take her back?
As for Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), now that Finn (Tanner Novlan) is giving her the spiel about how he took her for granted, how he is so sorry for not listening to her, and that Sheila will never be in their lives again, would you want to listen to that, either, after so many broken promises?
That’s the situation hungover Steffy and Carter found themselves, while still reeling from the seeming fact that they had sex the night before while drunk in the Forrester Creations CEO office.

STEFFY AND CARTER GETS EARFULS
Daphne (Murielle Hilare) doesn’t understand why Carter is being so distant, and he says, “You said I wasn’t family.” She wants to put all of what she said and did behind them and now explore other ways to have a child. Carter seems hurt and annoyed.
Back at the cliff house, Steffy is so upset between sleeping with Carter and getting drunk, and Finn and his mother, Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) in Monaco. She tells Finn, “I need you to stand up for me. I can’t live like this. I won’t.” Finn begs her not to let “one terrible mistake” (get it!?) tear us apart.
Finn promised Steffy he will get a restraining order on Sheila if it calls for it. He understands why Steffy is so scared of Sheila after she shot her … and him. In the closing moments of the episode, Finn pronounces how lucky he is to have the “perfect wife.” To which a rattled Steffy in tears goes, “Oh, I’m not perfect.”

STEFFY’S GUILT
Steffy is losing her grip at this moment as Finn says he wants to step up and be the husband he deserves. Along with Daphne, I kind of want to kick Finn to the curb, too. Then Finn lays it on real thick and adds, “You’re pure, you’re honest, you’re loyal.” Steffy interrupts, “Not quite.”
Suddenly a guilt-ridden Steffy says to Finn, “There’s something I need to tell you.” Can she actually get the words out about getting drunk and having sex with Carter …or, will she keep it under wraps so we can have months of the line “one terrible mistake?”
Take a look at some of the scenes between Steffy and Finn from today’s episode below.
Now let us know: would you bother to take back Daphne or Finn, if you were Carter and Steffy? Would you like to see Steffy just blurt out she had sex with Carter to her husband? Weigh-in via the comment section.

On the Tuesday, August 18 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, viewers were tuned-in to see if Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor), who were were both on benders, wound up having sex in the Forrester Creations CEO office.
As the Monday, August 17 episode concluded, Carter and Steffy shared a close moment where it looked like they would kiss. Now in the pick up which starts the morning after, Steffy awakens from the couch in the office, and realizes she has no clothes on and is mortified to see Carter on the end of the couch also naked and under blankets.
In that moment, Steffy realizes they had sex, and begins to unravel to Carter as she scrambles to get dressed: “We shouldn’t have done this. Oh my God, I shouldn’t have done this!”

STEFFY RACES TO GET HOME
Steffy’s panic of the situation escalates when she finds her phone, and sees multiple text messages from her husband, Finn (Tanner Novlan), desperately trying to reach her. He told Steffy he was on his way home from Monaco.
Suddenly, a hungover Carter speaks up and agrees. He says to Steffy they made a terrible mistake and wanted to talk about it, but Steffy kiboshed any discussion, not dealing with Carter, and racing home to be with her kids and Finn. As a disheveled Steffy ran out of Forrester, Carter stayed behind to straighten up the office and get rid of any remnants of their drunken binge.
Just then, Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) showed up as Carter is shocked. She apologized for running out on him, and details how when she got to the airport to board the plane to Paris, she realized she couldn’t leave him. She loved him too much, and asks him to please forgive her and her, “terrible mistake.” Daphne hugs Carter and he looks like a man who has no idea what to do or make of this entire situation in the moment.

WHAT WILL BE THE REPERCUSSIONS OF CARTER AND STEFFY’S DRUNKEN NIGHT TOGETHER?
Cut to: Steffy comes home and runs into her mother, Taylor (Rebecca Budig). She explains what happened with Finn and Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) in Monaco. Next, Steffy details how she took off her wedding ring after Taylor noticed it was no longer on her finger. Just then, Finn arrives. Taylor leaves the two to talk. Finn begs for Steffy’s forgiveness and the episode comes to an end with Steffy facing away from Finn and towards the camera, trying to figure out what to do next. Take him back?
Now the real story begins: it would appear that the intent was to have Carter and Steffy face long-lasting consequences of their drunken night together. So that, Steffy would become pregnant with Carter’s child, which would cause the ripple effect in Carter’s marriage to Daphne, who is unable to carry a child.
One other theory, unless, Carter and Steffy believe they had sex, but they passed out in compromising positions but nothing ever happened? Perhaps one of them, or both will have flashbacks of them carrying on together on the couch? Were they set up? Stay tuned.
So, we ask you. What happens from here? Steffy gets pregnant with Carter’s child? Does Steffy goes back to Finn? Carter goes back with Daphne? They really never had drunken sex? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, take a look below, and a bit of what went down when Steffy and Carter realize what happened between them.
