The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Liam Spencer And Hope Logan Grateful
At the cabin, Liam and Hope realize how grateful they are to Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) for watching the kids while their family is in turmoil. Hope says Kelly Spencer seems fine, despite her mother falling apart. Liam and Hope never could have foreseen Steffy pulling a knife and trying to take her daughter home by force. Liam believes Steffy is in no condition to care for her daughter right now.
Liam is mad at himself for not realizing how troubled Steffy was. Hope says Steffy didn’t want anyone to know she had a problem with pills.
Liam calls Dr. John Finnegan (Tanner Dovlan) over to tell him that Steffy is in trouble. Liam says that Finn would have already known what was going on with Steffy if he didn’t have a crush on her. Finn says it’s none of Liam’s business and that it’s inappropriate for Liam to be so invested in Steffy when he has a wife and family of his own.
B&B Spoilers – Steffy Forrester’s Shocking Behavior
Finn is blown away by Steffy’s behavior. He can’t believe Steffy would put Kelly’s life in danger. Hope tells Liam to cool it when he continues to berate Finn for failing to see Steffy’s downward spiral. Finn is concerned that Steffy will have a huge emotional setback because Liam took her child away. Liam’s actions could send Steffy deeper into her addiction.
Liam and Hope say Steffy’s personality has changed, including pulling a knife on them. Lying, hiding, and lashing out in anger is completely out of character.
Finn hopes he can get through to Steffy and make up for missing the signs of her addiction. Finn admits that Liam was right to call him out.
Liam, Hope, and Finn agree that they all have to band together to try to get Steffy the help she needs. Hope doesn’t want to be part of the intervention though, because it might upset Steffy.

Liam reassures her that he loves her and will let Kelly come home once Steffy gets help. Steffy says there’s no help. She grows more and more frantic. She needs the pills.
They are doing some great acting with this issue. The anger, confusion, disbelief, betrayal! Steph admits 'I have to have the pills!" Every body wants to blame Bill he caused the crash. But other thoughts are Step is a fault . If she had been somewhere else, had she been more attentive to her environment But if we just understand Eph 3:1…. to every thing there is a time…. I hope the out come of this latest issue is people will be a better understanding of Opioid addiction and the cause. It starts usually starts innocent. We need to realize continued use under doctors care s not addiction but continued therapy.
The acting is phenomenal and even though I'm not a fan of Liam, I think it's great that Liam, Finn and Ridge banded together to help Steffy see she has a problem. Let's hope their united front continues as she goes through recovery, too.
