Steffy Angrily Confronts Li About Keeping Finn’s Survival a Secret, and Taylor is Hopeful About Her Future with Ridge

In the Monday, August 8, 2022, full episode recap of CBS’ Bold and the Beautiful, Hope tells Liam about the selfie problem, Taylor catches up with Thomas and Zende, and Finn gets checked out at the hospital.

We also have Friday’s B&B recap where Quinn and Carter frolicked in bed while Steffy and Finn were thrilled to return home.

At home, Finn gets off the phone after getting an appointment at the hospital. He makes a crack about coming back from the dead and thinks he needs a proper check up.

Li shows up and he throws his arms around her. Steffy bites her tongue.

She sits on the opposite end of the room as Finn thanks his mom for saving her. He has an appointment he needs to get to. His wife wants to come but he insists on going alone.

After he leaves the ladies alone, Li guesses Steffy has some questions.

She does, but first she thanks her for keeping Finn alive. “That being said, what the hell, Li?” she asks. She could have erased all the pain by telling her what she deserved to know.

Li claims she would have never done anything to harm the children but that’s what Steffy thinks she did.

Li explains how proud she was of her son and the future he could have had. Then he met Steffy and got swept up in her tabloid fodder lifestyle. If he’d never met her, Sheila never would have shot him.

In her anger and despair, part of her blamed Steffy and her family. Getting her involved would have been a distraction she couldn’t afford.

Steffy would have demanded she take her back to the people who wrote him off as dead. There was no reason to get her hopes up. She would have said something if he came to.

“I won’t apologize to you or anyone else for doing what I had to do to save my son,” she says.

Liam kisses Hope in their cabin. She wonders what that’s about. He’s feeling extra affectionate because he’s not taking anything for granted. There’s love in the air.

They chat about how excited the kids are. Hope remembers that she might have made problems for her mom and Ridge’s marriage. She tells him of the selfie.

Her husband is sure she didn’t mean anything by it. But it may not be an ideal time to remind Ridge of the problems he’s had with Brooke.
