DEKE INFILTRATES FORRESTER WHILE CONFIDING IN HOPE ABOUT DEACON’S MARRIAGE MESS

TL;DR: Thursday B&B spoilers reveal Deke secretly slips his portfolio into Forrester designer submissions (risky move!), Deke confides in sister Hope about Deacon‘s pain, and Ridge and Brooke share a passionate kiss. It’s sneaky career moves, sibling bonding, and passionate romance Thursday in Los Angeles!

Deke’s Spectacularly Sneaky Career Strategy

Deke secretly slips his portfolio into the stack of designer submissions at Forrester Creations on Thursday, and this young man genuinely thinks STEALTH SUBMISSION is a viable career strategy. B&B spoilers reveal Deke—son of Deacon (Sean Kanan)—is sneaking his design portfolio into Forrester’s submissions without identifying himself or being honest about his connection. So instead of being upfront about who he is or earning consideration on actual merit with his name attached, Deke‘s going the SECRET INFILTRATION route. What could POSSIBLY go wrong when the Forresters discover that Deacon Sharpe‘s SON infiltrated their design submissions?!

Here’s what makes Deke‘s sneaky portfolio submission so RISKY: he’s the son of a man whose wife Sheila Carter(Kimberlin Brown) TERRORIZED the Forrester family for DECADES. While Deke himself hasn’t done anything wrong, his connection to Deacon—who’s married to Sheila—makes this situation COMPLICATED. And Deke thinks sliding his portfolio into their submissions anonymously is going to end WELL? B&B spoilers suggest Deke‘s operating under the assumption that his designs will be judged fairly without the Deacon/Sheila connection, which—sure, that’s ONE way to look at it. The OTHER way is that he’s deceiving the Forresters from the jump, which tends to backfire SPECTACULARLY on this show!

What’s Deke‘s endgame here? Get his designs accepted, reveal who he is AFTER they love his work, and hope they don’t immediately reject him when they discover he’s Deacon‘s son and Sheila‘s stepson? That’s… optimistic. B&Bspoilers indicate Deke‘s sneaky submission is going to create MASSIVE drama when the truth comes out—and it WILL come out because secrets in Los Angeles last approximately five minutes. The Forresters are going to feel DECEIVED, Deke‘s going to argue he just wanted a fair shot, and nobody’s going to be happy. Pro tip: starting your potential employment with DECEPTION rarely ends well!

B&B Spoilers Show Deke Confiding in Hope

Deke is saddened by Deacon‘s pain and confides in his sister Hope (Annika Noelle) on Thursday, and apparently Deke‘s watching his dad struggle with the Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) marriage situation. B&B spoilers reveal Deke‘s talking to Hope about their father’s marital problems, and honestly it must be WEIRD having conversations like “yeah, Dad’s having a rough time with his serial killer wife.” Hope‘s probably thinking “I TOLD him marrying Sheila was a terrible idea but nobody LISTENS to me!”

Deke being saddened by Deacon‘s pain shows he cares about his dad, even if Deacon‘s making spectacularly bad life choices. Watching your father suffer in a marriage to someone with a body count is probably difficult, even when you warned him it would end badly. B&B spoilers suggest Deke and Hope bonding over their shared concern for Deacon, who’s currently in therapy with his wife’s nemesis discussing his marriage problems. The family dysfunction is OFF THE CHARTS!

Ridge and Brooke’s Passionate Moment

Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) share a passionate kiss on Thursday, and these two are STILL in their honeymoon phase while everyone else deals with murder trials, custody battles, and family drama. B&B spoilers reveal Ridge and Brooke are passionately kissing, completely wrapped up in their happiness. Must be NICE living in the Ridge and Brooke bubble where actual problems don’t penetrate! B&B spoilers suggest these two are blissfully happy while chaos swirls around them!
