A Romance Burns and a Relationship Crumbles on Bold and the Beautiful November 6

The Bold and the Beautiful brought love back to the afternoons on the Wednesday, November 6th episode. Steffy and Finn’s marriage is stronger than ever. A klutzy lingerie-clad Hope could never tear these two apart. Meanwhile, Carter’s passion for Hope continues to burn brightly. The same can’t be said for Brooke and Ridge, though, who find themselves at odds over Hope’s firing.

Burning Desire

Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) can’t help how he feels for Hope (Annika Noelle). He’s seen her differently ever since the company trip to Rome, even though he was dating her aunt Katie (Heather Tom) then. Awkward. He remains committed to Hope. She finally has someone on her side, especially after Steffy’s (Jaqueline MacInnes Wood) wrath. Hope’s firing formed new company alliances. On Wednesday, Carter told Hope that he would stick by her side.

Hope realized that he’s everything she’s ever wanted in a man. She once again forgot that she almost had that with Thomas (Matthew Atkinson). Carter is her new secret boyfriend. The couple ignited their fiery passion on Wednesday’s episode.

‘Bridge’ Torn Apart

Meanwhile, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) couldn’t agree on Hope’s firing. She assured him that Hope wasn’t after Finn (Tanner Novlan). Brooke believed that Hope for the Future could’ve turned things around. (Find Out Why Hope’s Identity to HFTF Caused It to Flop.)

She begged Ridge to see past the numbers. She thought he was her confidant, but she no longer knew the man she was engaged to. Ridge argued that he didn’t believe Hope had changed for the better, so he had to side with his daughter’s decision.

Brooke’s heart is broken, while Hope’s is growing fond of Carter. The two shockingly exchanged “I love yous” (too soon?) before making passionate love near the roaring fireplace. Meanwhile, trouble is brewing for Bridge.

Will Ridge run off into Taylor’s (Rebecca Budig) arms? She said that she was over him, but everybody knows that time doesn’t always heal old wounds.
