What Happened Today on B&B
The B&B has been teasing a future war between Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Hope (Annika Noelle). The two made peace when Liam (Scott Clifton) assumed he was going to die.
They all learned that he was tricked into thinking he was dying. Then, Hope’s line came back, and Steffy approved Hope and Liam’s marriage. But a new battle could be brewing amid the mess involving Taylor (Rebecca Budig), Deacon (Sean Kanan), and Sheila (Kimberlin Brown).
On Wednesday’s episode, Steffy continued to plead with her mom to stop seeing Deacon at all costs. After all, he’s Sheila’s husband. She pressured Taylor to drop him as a patient.
Meanwhile, Deacon told Hope not to encourage the idea. She tried to encourage her father and his feelings for Taylor. Hope could tell that Deacon is afraid to divorce Sheila.
She didn’t want him to live in this fear anymore. Hope warned her father about living with a divided heart and urged him to tell Sheila the truth. She then took it one step further by pressuring her father to visit Taylor and confess his feelings for her.
Steffy Could Blame Hope For the Fallout
Steffy was the first to sound the alarm on “Teacon.” Yet, Hope was thrilled over the idea of their parents possibly ending up together. Steffy wondered if Hope was in a coma when Sheila tried to kill her and Finn (Tanner Novlan).
She’s aware of the damage that Sheila could do to their family. As for Hope, she’s only focused on her father’s happiness. She’s tired of seeing him walk on eggshells around his wife.
Steffy asked Hope to convince her father to leave Taylor alone. But Hope has taken it upon herself to encourage Deacon to be honest with Taylor about his feelings. This alone proves that Hope doesn’t care if Taylor ends up in danger.
If Sheila causes any harm to Taylor, it’ll be Hope’s fault in the end. This will also kick off Hope and Steffy’s next war. B&B could throw in a twist and have Sheila go after Hope and Deke (Harrison Cone) instead.
