In the Thursday March 31, 2022, full episode recap of CBS’ Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy confronts Sheila, Hope and Liam listen to the latest from Brooke, Bridget is back, and Taylor urges Thomas to back off.
We also have Wednesday’s B&B recap where Steffy told Finn that his mother was responsible for Brooke’s slip from sobriety and confronted Sheila.
In the alley outside Il Giardino, Steffy tells Sheila that she hasn’t changed. She’s the same sociopath she’s always been. She knows how sick she is and what she did to Brooke.
Steffy lays out the whole champagne switch story and Sheila finally admits to it. She thinks Steffy should be on her knees thanking her for getting Ridge away from Brooke. “Don’t tell me this isn’t what you’ve always wanted,” Sheila says, getting in her face and adding, “You’re welcome.”
Steffy isn’t feeling thankful. Sheila explains that she took all the initiative and they were just sitting around leaving Ridge with a “drunken slut.” Now, Ridge is inching closer to Taylor and that’s what she wants. The family deserves to be reunited.
“You’re my family too,” Sheila says. One day, she is sure that Steffy will accept her the way that Taylor has. She has been so wonderful. Steffy thinks that she is as dangerous and manipulative as she’s ever been.
She’s putting an end to this. “I never want to see your face!” she declares, ordering her out of her family’s life. Sheila tells her she can’t tell anyone what happened and urges her to think of her mom.
Steffy says she can’t spike a few drinks and be forgiven for her past. She asks how long Thomas has been involved. Sheila explains he just found out and they had the same conversation. Steffy doesn’t want her parents manipulated back together.
The only person who has been exposed by this has been Sheila. “You are never having a relationship with Finn!” Steffy says. Sheila warns her not to come between her and her son. She accuses Steffy of baiting her to act out and asks her for some understanding. Even Taylor has been open to the idea that she’s been reformed.
She asks Steffy what she would have done if Brooke was in her face telling her she could never be part of her son’s life. Sheila wouldn’t let Brooke get in the way and won’t let her either.
Finn is the one child she could have a future with. The life she could have had with her too. That was something she really wanted.
Steffy says being loved by her is a curse and she will make sure Finn knows that. When she repeats that she will never be part of their lives, Sheila grabs her by the collar and shoves her against a dumpster.
If one of them will not have a future with Finn, it will be Steffy.
