What Happened Previously on B&B
Hope reminded Brooke that she’d always wanted to run Forrester as co-CEO alongside Ridge (Thorsten Kaye). Brooke told Ridge about the idea and tried to seduce him into giving her what she wanted.
When Ridge told Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), she wasn’t pleased. Steffy listed out all the reasons she should remain co-CEO. In the end, she pleaded with her dad to choose her over Brooke after years of his choosing Brooke.
Ultimately, Ridge did what Steffy asked. He decided not to oust Steffy as his co-CEO.
Meanwhile, Katie’s (Heather Tom) launch at Logan exceeded expectations, but the excitement came with a major complication. Since Eric (John McCook) created the designs for the debut collection and has no plans to continue working with the company, Katie suddenly found herself needing a long-term designer.
Liam (Scott Clifton) quickly suggested Hope as the perfect fit for Logan, and both Katie and Bill (Don Diamont) immediately embraced the idea. Donna (Jennifer Gareis), however, wasn’t nearly as enthusiastic. While she supported Katie building her new business, she refused to back any plan that involved pulling Brooke’s (Katherine Kelly Lang) daughter away from Forrester Creations.
Recently, Remy (Christian Weissman) returned to Los Angeles, and Dylan (Sydney Bullock) wasn’t thrilled to see him. It turned out that the two were related, and that was something Dylan wanted to keep quiet.
