The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers recap for Thursday, February 10, reveals that Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) accused Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) of secret desires – and Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen) cried after Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) sided with Brooke Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang). Here’s how it all went down on Thursday’s B&B episode.
At the cliff house, Ridge insisted Brooke would never betray him with Deacon. Ridge thought Taylor was wrong and that Deacon left after the party on New Year’s Eve.
Taylor said Deacon came back and assumed maybe that was when he started drinking with Brooke.
Taylor suggested that explained what happened – though it didn’t excuse it. After Taylor revealed that Brooke and Deacon kissed, Ridge declared that was ridiculous.
However, Taylor mentioned how Douglas Forrester (Henry Joseph Samiri) saw it happen.
Ridge tried to act like Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) must’ve put ideas in Douglas’ head.
Ridge thought Taylor was turning a kid’s innocent story into something sinister.
Taylor then walked Ridge through the stuffed rabbit story and how Douglas snuck out of the house on New Year’s Eve.
When that still didn’t convince Ridge, Taylor admitted she saw Deacon come back to the house herself on the home security camera.
Taylor insisted that Deacon didn’t leave until morning, which meant that Deacon and Brooke spent the night together.
Taylor said when Ridge didn’t come home that night, Brooke’s disappointment became self-destructive.
Ridge didn’t think Brooke would do that – not with a “bottom-feeder” like Deacon or anyone else.
Taylor didn’t expect Ridge to take her word for it and advised him to go ask his wife. She cried as she made it clear she didn’t want to hurt Ridge.
Taylor said Ridge had been lied to and deserved so much better, but he just looked at her and walked out.
At Brooke’s place, Steffy said the consequences couldn’t be avoided.
Steffy brought up Deacon’s name again and taunted Brooke a bit more, but Brooke didn’t think Steffy could question her love for Ridge.
Steffy argued that she indeed could and did question it. She felt that sooner or later, Brooke always turned to someone else.
Brooke tried to end the conversation and get Steffy out of there since Ridge was coming home to talk.
Before Steffy left, Brooke wanted her to know that all the challenges she’d faced with Ridge had only made them stronger.
Steffy wanted Brooke to know something, too – that there was nothing more painful than watching history repeat itself!
In the end, Steffy went along with Brooke’s wishes to leave. She wanted to get as far away from this “impending catastrophe” as she could.
Back at the cliff house, Steffy sought updates from her mom. Taylor admitted she tried to tell Ridge everything, but he didn’t want to believe her.
Steffy thought she should talk to Ridge herself, but Taylor insisted he’d already gone home to Brooke.
Steffy was upset over Ridge not believing the truth, but Taylor wasn’t sure Ridge was capable of seeing that Brooke could turn to Deacon.
At home, Ridge walked through the door and learned Brooke had something to tell him. Brooke added that it was something she should’ve told Ridge a while ago.
Brooke confessed this was about New Year’s Eve and explained how Deacon returned for his phone that night.
Brooke said that after Ridge called and revealed he couldn’t make it home in time, she started drinking and ended up kissing Deacon.
Ridge glared as Brooke grew flustered and tried to make sense of her decisions.
Brooke pushed Ridge to say something, so he said Taylor already told him.
Ridge added that he told Taylor there was no way Brooke would do that.
Ridge wanted an explanation for the Deacon part of the story since that’s what Brooke hid from him.
Ridge pointed out that Taylor thought Deacon stayed the night, but he suggested Brooke wouldn’t do that to their marriage.
“You wouldn’t have an affair with Deacon, right?” Ridge asked as his anger bubbled up.
At the cabin, Deacon wondered if confessing was really going to make Brooke feel better.
Deacon worried about this blowing up Brooke’s marriage, but Liam thought that’s what Deacon secretly wanted.
Liam also felt Deacon should stay out of it since he’d done enough already.
Deacon argued that he didn’t want this to happen, but Liam reflected on all the trouble Deacon had caused for their entire family, including Douglas.
Liam was trying to be a realist since Ridge always blew a gasket at the mention of Deacon’s name.
Liam was afraid of Ridge’s reaction to Brooke kissing Deacon, but Deacon thought maybe Brooke was right – that it was time for the truth to come out.
Hope defended Deacon since he could’ve exposed the secret himself, but he honored his word not to.
Deacon thought Brooke was “walking into a buzzsaw.” He didn’t have high hopes for Ridge understanding – especially since Brooke and Deacon didn’t even understand what happened that night themselves.
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Deacon’s right about Ridge’s rage, which is on the verge of exploding in a big way!
