In the Monday, January 10, 2022, full episode recap of CBS’ Bold and the Beautiful, Paris’ mother Grace drops in on her, Brooke covers up at the AA meeting, and Hope blames herself for what happened to her mom. We also have Friday’s B&B recap where Brooke went to an AA meeting and Hope caught Bill trashing Deacon.
In the cabin, Hope tells Liam that she has been so focused on her father that she missed how much her mother was struggling. He assures her none of this is her fault and Brooke is getting all the help she needs. Hope keeps blaming herself anyway. Her husband keeps insisting there is nothing she could have done.
Having Taylor back in town is only adding to her mother’s stress, Hope insists. Something or someone must have pushed her over the edge. Liam doesn’t think Deacon had anything to do with this. He tells her that her concerns are just a testament to what a wonderful daughter she is.
Brooke is with Ridge at an AA meeting. She’s prompted by the man leading the group to explain what happened when she relapsed. She claims she was alone when she drank. Ridge holds her hand. Brooke says that she doesn’t know what triggered her drinking again but she’s committed to her sobriety and couldn’t do it without her husband’s support.
When Brooke and Ridge return home, she glares around the front room and remembers her night drinking with Deacon. She admits to Ridge that she’s scared and claims she has no idea what happened that night.
He promises to make sure she never relapses again. “I don’t want to lose you,” she says. Ridge reminds her of their wedding vows and promises they can survive anything if they are honest with each other.
After he puts all the booze in the trash, he tells his wife that she’s hot and he admires how she trusts him. She’s not sure how he can trust her after her relapse. Ridge beats himself up for not being there at New Year’s and promises never to leave her again. He holds her.
