The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers recap for Tuesday, May 24, teases that Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) offered to be Hayes Forrester Finnegan’s (Piper Harriot) new dad – and Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) revealed the story behind John “Finn” Finnegan’s (Tanner Novlan) survival.
At the cliff house on Tuesday’s B&B episode, Liam made tea for Steffy and acknowledged that Hayes would have father figures in his life, including Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) and Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson).
Liam also pointed out that Hayes was Kelly Spencer’s (Sophia Paras McKinlay) younger brother. If Steffy needed Liam to play a fatherly role for Hayes, then he was willing to step up.
Talk turned to the memorial service, which Steffy was planning on. Steffy just wanted to make sure Li was involved in what they put together for Finn.
Soon after, Deputy Chief Bradley Baker (Dan Martin) arrived with the rings, wallet and purse that had been part of the investigation. Steffy cried as she realized that Finn had been reduced to things, so Baker was apologetic about upsetting her.
After Steffy reassured Baker, Liam walked him out. Steffy put Finn’s ring on and recalled giving Finn that wallet for his birthday. Liam urged her to keep the wallet since it’d mean a lot to Hayes one day.
Steffy remained weepy since death wasn’t supposed to part them this soon. After Steffy flashed back to Finn’s proposal and their wedding day, Liam said it wasn’t fair and that Steffy deserved decades with Finn.
Steffy kept talking about how Finn was really gone and felt she had to somehow find a way to accept that her husband was dead.
In the room where Li stashed Finn, she talked about Sheila never hurting her son again. After Li begged Finn to come back, she recalled what happened after the shooting.
Li was so glad that she was working that night and thought it was fate that the ambulance brought Finn to her hospital instead of Steffy’s. Finn’s doctor never believed he could pull through, but Li smuggled Finn out and signed the death certificates.
Li pointed out that the others thought Finn was gone, but she refused to give up on him and held his hand.
There was a flashback involving the paramedics and how they managed to get a weak pulse. However, the doctor wasn’t hopeful due to lack of brain activity and felt there was no chance to revive Finn. Li knew Finn would be determined to fight like her and had to give him the chance.
After Li ranted about Steffy’s world with the Forresters and all their baggage, she mentioned how rotten Sheila came into Finn’s life. Li vowed to do whatever it took to protect Finn and insisted she’d never give up on him.
At Forrester Creations, Ridge remained upset over Thomas’ lies, but Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen) felt he was a victim of Sheila’s manipulation. Taylor and Ridge agreed to keep this private, but they looked up to find Brooke Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang) standing nearby.
After Taylor asked how long Brooke had been there, Brooke admitted it’d only been one or two seconds and got confirmation that she wasn’t interrupting.
Since Brooke’s main concern was for Steffy and the kids, Taylor thanked her for that. There was also talk about what a nasty thing Sheila did by targeting an alcoholic.
Taylor wanted to be there for Brooke, so Ridge was pleased to see everyone putting their differences aside and thought unity was important right now.
Of course, that unity will crumble into conflict soon, so we’ll pass along updates as other B&B news emerges. The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Brooke and Taylor’s battle will become bitter, so stay tuned.
