Wed Sept 27 recap of B&B: Donna swears RJ to secrecy, Carter, Ridge and Brooke can’t understand the budgetary logic, and Taylor tells Finn to cut Sheila out.
Tuesday’s B&B recap: As Eric experienced burnout, Ridge’s frustration grew at hearing the financial drain Eric’s line is causing the company/
At the cliff house, Finn picks up a kid’s toy and thinks. He walks over to the family photos and flashes back to proposing to Steffy.
Taylor suddenly shows up, sniping that he may be the only person who doesn’t have to lock his door with Sheila on the loose.
She’s there to talk some sense into him.
Once she sits, he asks about the kids. He misses them so much.
She says they are okay but being separate from them is having an impact. He can make this right if he will take the necessary moves to make sure Sheila is not in his life again.
That is the only way he can guarantee his wife will come home.
She can understand the loving connection between mother and child, but he has that with Li while Sheila tried to kill him and his wife.
He knows all that.
Barking, Taylor tells him to step up and prove to his wife that it’s safe to come home to him.
Finn insists that nothing can keep him apart from Steffy and recalls their previous reunions.
The shrink tells him to just get Sheila out of his life, no matter what it takes to make that happen.
At Deacon’s, he makes light of Sheila when she claims that what he’s given her has left her speechless. She’ll be grateful to him forever.
He claims he was just helping out a friend.
She’s more than willing to pay him back for that and is eager to kick off her shoes.
Deacon starts making jokes about her nine toes and how “eccentric” she is. Sheila prefers “passionate” and “devoted.”
She’s passionate and devoted to being in her son’s life. Deacon notes the timing for that statement is inappropriate.
She’s also devoted to being in Deacon’s life. They smile.
Sharpe tells her that everyone deserves to be loved. That means a lot to her.
She asks how he knows about the judge. He’s evasive. Being well-connected didn’t take him out of prison.
She’s sure it was hard for him to visit her behind bars.
They talk about how they have changed. Taking his hand, she says a big reason for why she’s changed is him.
He says she’s changed him too.
She’ll never forget the lengths he’s gone to to secure her freedom.
She knows they decided not to see each other any more and she doesn’t want him to risk his relationship with his family… but he’s a perfect example of how things can be if people see you have changed.
Sheila promises not to just stop by, but it was a lot of fun. They chuckle about that.
She thanks him again and says goodbye.
As she heads for the door, he stops her.
Maybe he’s crazy, but he’s been alone too long and doesn’t want to be alone anymore.
