In the Monday, May 30, 2022, full episode recap of CBS’ Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy’s family try to support her, Eric thinks he’s lying to himself, and Carter wants to protect Quinn.
We also have Friday’s B&B recap where the claws came out between Quinn and Paris and Brooke argued with Taylor about Ridge.
At Forrester Creations, Thomas apologizes to his sister and father for keeping Sheila’s secret. Steffy doesn’t blame him for what happened in the alley. She just has to accept that her husband is never coming back.
Thomas keeps apologizing but his sister wants to focus on work. She can’t. Ridge urges her to take care of herself and her family.
Sobbing, Steffy says she can’t do any of this without Finn. Thomas and Ridge remind her that they will be there for her. She feels like she has to be everything for her children now.
She hates that everyone knows she is grieving. She wants to feel normal.
Her father tells her that she doesn’t have to be everything and her family’s got her.
Taylor comes in. Steffy complains everyone is treating her like she’s broken. “My husband is dead! He’s gone,” Steffy huffs.
Her mom tells her it’s okay not be okay. Steffy doesn’t think she will ever heal. Taylor says that talking is part of the healing process.
Steffy says she’s heartbroken and worried about the kids. They’re confused and don’t really understand. Taylor suggest she take them and leave town for awhile. Steffy arches an eyebrow.
Her mom assures her this would not be running away but finding space to heal. Thomas thinks she should be processing this with her family. Taylor suggests getting away for a little bit could help.
Steffy doesn’t want to get away from her memories. She is continually remembering Finn’s presence and can’t leave that. She never even had a chance to say goodbye.
Looking at his photo, she says, “If only I could see Finn one more time.”
Carter walks in on Quinn in the design office. As she blows on some jewels, he remembers her telling him that what they had has to stay in the past. Clearing his throat, he tells her they need to talk about Eric.
Knowing how committed she is to her marriage, he doesn’t want anyone to mess with it. She’s confused. He reminds her of when Paris put them on notice. He’s worried that could become an issue.
She insists that she is devoted to Eric. Carter doesn’t want to let Paris jeopardize her happiness. Quinn waves this off and says Paris is seeing things that aren’t there.
He thinks he could have handled things better with Paris and wonders if they should get back together. Quinn reminds him he said that wouldn’t work. Has he changed his mind?
He says he wants a relationship with someone. He wants to build something that matters so what is he waiting for? A family would be possible with Paris.
Quinn doesn’t know where this is coming from. He feels stuck and needs to move on. He can do that with Paris and it will make her stop asking questions about his feelings for her.
Li reads as she sits by Finn’s bedside. She stops to caress his face and tells him this isn’t how his story ends. “You will come back to us one day,” she says.
