The Bold and the Beautiful Recaps: Threats, Temptation & Better Angels

The Bold and the Beautiful recaps for August 22 – August 26, 2022, feature a whole lot of squabbling, snapping, and sassing, and the hanging of a sensational new painting.

The Bold and the Beautiful Recaps: Monday, August 22

Hope Logan Spencer (Annika Noelle) is rattled by Thomas Forrester’s (Matthew Atkinson) plan to assume caring for Douglas Forrester (Django Ferri) full time. She does her utmost to convince him to leave the boy in her charge, but Thomas is resolute. Furthermore, he declares his intention to take Douglas for the night… Brooke Logan Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang) confronts Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen) and makes her position quite clear: she’s not going to allow Douglas’s removal from Hope’s custody.

Though it takes some doing, Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) and Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) – who’s sequestered in the bathroom and doing her best impersonation of a Southern belle – manage to convince his parole officer that everything is on the up and up. Sheila begs Deacon to let her remain his apartment; he hedges. Sheila appeals to Deacon’s better angels, then offers him her sexual services and riches beyond his wildest dreams; the idea of a cash infusion seems to tempt Deacon.
