The Bold and the Beautiful Recap: Liam Wasn’t Buying Terrible Tom’s Act

The Bold and the Beautiful recap for Thursday, January 2, 2020, features Thomas putting his game face on, Ridge trying again, and Liam sounding the alarm.

The Bold and the Beautiful Recap Highlights

The annual Forrester Christmas feast (which happened off-screen this year) changed things for several key players. Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) and Zoe (Kiara Barnes) made a big impression, Ridge tried to rekindle his romance, and Liam knew something was off.

Back to Work

It was the morning after and all anyone could talk about was Thomas and his new girlfriend. He had almost everyone convinced he moved on, including Zoe and Hope (Annika Noelle).

In fact, Hope believed the couple so much she agreed to let Zoe model her line. HFTF now has its leader, designer, and showstopper. Hope was happy(ish) — maybe even a tad jealous, Zoe was thrilled, and Thomas saw the future coming together.

Of course, that future didn’t include Zoe at all. Thomas obsessed over Hope like a mad man, which is exactly what he is.

Love Me, Again

Thomas’s new romance had Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) questioning their marital status. Ridge was ready to throw away the divorce papers and turn up the heat. He made his intentions crystal clear.

Unfortunately, things weren’t so cut and dry for Brooke. Thomas moving on doesn’t magically erase the sins of his past. He did terrible things and ruin a family. She refused to let go of the past and all of Terrible Tom’s horrifying acts.

Liam Got It Right

Liam (Scott Clifton) also wasn’t buying Thomas’s act. He paid a visit to Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) to talk over the situation. Zoe and Thomas looked happy and very much like a couple but Liam’s gut told him something was off.

Liam hit the nail on the head when he suggested this was all to win back Hope. Sadly, Steffy did not believe him. She wanted to see the best in her brother. The Bold and the Beautiful (BB) airs weekdays on CBS. Check your local listings for airtimes.
