B&B Spoilers and 2-20 Recap: Finn Better Not Mess This Up – Empty Hug Hints at Cold Feet Over Luna Secret
B&B Spoilers: Despite claiming he’ll tell Steffy about Luna being his daughter, Finn’s hollow embrace suggests otherwise. Plus, Liam lurks while Luna deals with confinement at Bill’s.
That Hug Says It All…
Listen, you can talk all day about wanting to confess, but actions speak louder than words – and Finn’s empty embrace of Steffy is screaming “I’m about to chicken out” louder than a Ridge Forrester declaration of love. After back-to-back shifts at the hospital, Finn swears up and down to Poppy that today’s the day he’s finally going to tell Steffy that Luna is his daughter. But that hollow hug he gave his wife? Please. We’ve seen enough last-minute bailouts on this show to know what’s coming.
The Setup for Disaster
While Finn was busy rehearsing his confession in his office (and getting an earful from Poppy about how this could destroy his marriage), Steffy was having the most ironic conversation ever with Liam. Get this – she’s literally telling her ex-husband how she can always count on Finn and how there couldn’t possibly be any more shocking family secrets after the whole Sheila disaster. Oh, if she only knew! The dramatic irony is thicker than Eric’s famous marinara sauce.
The Plot Thickens
Meanwhile, over at Bill’s mansion, Luna’s dealing with her own drama – stuck inside with a busted AC and an ankle monitor that’s definitely not pool-friendly. She’s looking at photos of Finn and Steffy, getting all emotional about her regrets. Maybe she should be more worried about what’s going to happen when Steffy finds out she’s not just her attempted murderer – she’s her stepdaughter!
The Lonely Ex Factor
And let’s not skip over Liam dropping those not-so-subtle hints about his lonely birthday and jealousy of Finn. Classic Liam timing – showing up right when Finn might be about to blow up his own marriage. Is anyone else getting flashbacks to every other time Steffy and Liam found their way back to each other after a massive betrayal?
Back to That Hug…
The way Finn held Steffy while thinking “How can I tell you Luna is my daughter” – seriously, that embrace had more hesitation in it than Ridge choosing between Brooke and Taylor. If he doesn’t spill the truth soon, we all know how this ends – with the secret coming out at the worst possible moment, probably during some major Forrester celebration.
Between Poppy’s warnings, Liam’s convenient vulnerability, and Luna’s guilt-ridden confinement at Bill’s, all the pieces are in place for this bombshell to detonate in spectacular fashion. The only question is: will Finn man up and tell Steffy himself, or are we in for another classic B&B secret explosion?
