The drama is really heating up on The Bold and The Beautiful this week as Finn struggles with the escalating tension between his wife Steffy and his biological mom Sheila.
Sheila’s Sinister Presence Around Steffy
Steffy is totally freaked out since sinister Sheila has been lurking around her house, clearly out for revenge. Finn opens up to Hope about feeling torn – he cares about Sheila but gets why Steffy sees her as a threat.
Liam and Deacon’s Dispute Over Sheila
By Tuesday, Liam and Deacon are butting heads over how to handle the Sheila situation. It’s complicated given Deacon still has a soft spot for her. Meanwhile, Steffy and Finn have new problems piling onto their already rocky relationship.
Midweek Shocker from Carter
Midweek brings a shocker from Carter that leaves Ridge, Thomas and Finn reeling. And Steffy unloads some heavy stuff onto Finn, signaling more rough road ahead.
Ridge and Thomas Support Steffy
On Thursday, tensions flare again after Finn voices empathy for Sheila to Hope, who then confides her concerns to Brooke. Ridge and Thomas stand firmly with Steffy against Sheila’s scheming ways.
As the week wraps up, Ridge gets the cops involved, while kind-hearted Hope tries offering a shoulder for a very conflicted Finn to lean on. But with no sign of reconciliation between Steffy and the unpredictable Sheila, this emotional rollercoaster seems far from over.
Sure there’s plenty of dramatic twists and turns, but that’s part of why fans love this show. The writers have done a great job capturing the messy complexities of family – the love and loyalty as well as the conflicts and rifts.
