In the Wednesday, February 2, 2022, full episode recap of CBS’ Bold and the Beautiful, Grace stood her ground and Douglas was subjected to another round of questioning.
We also have Tuesday’s B&B recap where Deacon called Ridge a bully and almost spilled the truth about the kiss.
At the cliffhouse, Steffy thinks that Deacon and Brooke played their dad for a fool. Thomas thinks Ridge has blinders on when it comes to his wife. Steffy assumes this is the end of his marriage to Brooke.
Steffy snipes that Brooke doesn’t love their father. She continues to think the reason Brooke kissed Deacon was that her dad came home late. They debate whether or not Douglas even saw the kiss.
Steffy maintains that they need to find out what happened that night by talking to Douglas together. She doesn’t want to put pressure on the kid but it’s necessary. Thomas agrees to it this one time and after that, he doesn’t want his son involved.
Later, the kid appears and they explain what they want to talk about. He complains that he already told him and then launches into the kissing Santa Claus stuff and admits to Steffy that it was Deacon, not Santa.
He repeats the entire story and Steffy calls him brave. She asks if he’s positive it was Deacon.
He is so they send him to watch a movie and wonder if they need proof to make it impossible for Brooke to deny. Steffy has an idea. “That’s it!”
Brooke sits around in front of the fireplace at home as she flashes back to making out with Deacon, and learning that Douglas saw the kiss. She thinks about telling Douglas to keep his thoughts in the past. Ridge arrives.
They embrace and talk about her drinking and how gorgeous, beautiful and sexy she is to him. He writes her a card that reads, “I’ve been waiting for you, darling.” She smiles. “Your first words to me, even though they weren’t meant for me.”
He only recalls her standing by the pool serving champagne. She remembers being in awe of him. Ridge says he’s still in awe of her. They profess their love and kiss. He admits he went to see Deacon today and Brooke looks flummoxed. “Did you talk to him about my relapse?” He denies it.
