In the Thursday, August 4, 2022, full episode recap of CBS’ Bold and the Beautiful, Brooke worries about Ridge losing faith, Finn promises to explain things eventually, and Steffy thanks Li for saving her husband.
We also have Wednesday’s B&B recap where Ridge kissed Taylor after seeing a photo of Deacon and Brooke, and Steffy slipped Finn’s ring back on.
In Monaco, Steffy and Finn tell each other they will love each other forever and kiss.
They go back to their room and she still doesn’t understand what’s going on. It’s a long story and he’s still piecing it together. He just wants to hold her.
They sit down and she repeats this doesn’t feel real. “This is real,” he confirms.
She has a lot of questions. He’ll answer them eventually.
Finn tells her how romantic it is that death couldn’t keep him from her.
They kiss and violins play until his mom calls.
Li has been weeping since she saw the picture of him reunited with his family. She hoped beyond everything that this day would come.
Finn says it’s all because of her. His wife thanks her for never giving up on him and bringing him back.
Steffy sends Hayes off with the nanny and Kelly hangs out with her parents. After they discuss ice cream, she wants to go home.
Finn says thinking of walking through their front door kept him going. They cuddle.
After they send Kelly off, Finn realizes he won’t be able to explain things to the kids for another fifteen years. As soon as he came to, he was screaming inside for her and the children.
Sobbing, Steffy reminds him that he saved her life. “Of course I did,” he says.
Part of her died in that alley and she tried to stay strong for the kids but could barely hold on. It was torture to be at their house without him.
He reminds her that’s all over and they can make new memories. Their story has not ended and they have the rest of their lives together.
They kiss and decide to go home.
Overlooking the beach, Ridge and Taylor kiss. “Wow! That was unexpected,” he says.
“Was it?” she asks.
They go back to their room. She does her dance again and says that love conquers all. “You’re right I guess,” he concludes.
She says that Sheila will never break their family. He likes her mama bear thing.
This was one of the most amazing days of his life. They’ve witnessed a miracle.
They decide to give the reunited family more time alone. The doctor asks what he’s thinking and feeling.
“I am processing,” Ridge explains. It’s been a whirlwind. She says they got a little overwhelmed by the moment earlier. He stutters.
“Why did you kiss me?” she asks. “How could I not?” he asks.
Stroking her arms, he says they’ve been through some difficult times so, “It just felt, y’know…”
She says that’s okay.
