BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL RECAPS

At the Forrester mansion, Stephanie accused Liam of setting up Steffy. Liam denied it, but Steph didn't believe him and demanded that he tell her the truth. "I can have your kneecaps broken," she threatened the terrified computer tech. Liam gave in and said that he knew what happened, but it wasn't him. Steph grabbed him and dragged him out the door.


At the beach house, Bill felt badly for Steffy since Ridge thought she was behind the doctored Brooke tribute. She noted that even if she could prove her innocence, she couldn't change her attitude toward Brooke. "My father puts so much of himself in that relationship," she sighed. "After everything Brooke's done, he forgives her, but he fires me for something I didn't do." Bill suggested that she stop living for Ridge and start living for herself. He offered to help her get started and advised her to walk away from FC and create her own legacy. "You can do it," he encouraged. "I can make you a very rich woman." "I wonder what that's gonna cost," she said. He promised to make a lot of things happen for her and reminded her that she forced FC away from him. She asked if he hates her for it, but he smiled and replied that he can't hate someone who's beautiful — and so much like him. He then asked her to sell him her shares of FC. "It is time for you to move on," he stated. "Brooke and her daughter will always have a greater influence over your father than you ever will." Ouch! Steffy was hurt, but he added that she has the ability to do great things, which Ridge doesn't appreciate. "Start your own dynasty," Bill told her. Steffy considered it and looked over his offer, which was twice what the stock was worth. "I'm sorry, Dollar Bill," she finally said. "I don't even want to think about selling right now." She was determined to clear her name first. Bill wanted to help her prove her innocence and told her that one of his men doctored the tribute without his authorization.
Oliver and Aggie met at the beach, where Oliver was working on something on his laptop. He explained that he was hoping this his project would help him win back Hope; it was a video showing all of the reasons that they should be together. He sent it to Hope, but wasn't sure that she'd open the e-mail.... Hope admitted to a friend that she loves Oliver, but can't be with him. Later, Hope came home to find several messages from Ollie and deleted them. She then checked her e-mail and found Oliver's tribute to their relationship. She managed to smile a bit as she eyed all of the photos that he'd sent. Later, Oliver stopped by the Forrester home and pleaded with Hope to let him in. She did and he kissed her. "It's not over," he said softly. "I won't let it be."
At Forrester Creations, Taylor urged Ridge to give Steffy the benefit of the doubt and let her know that he believes her. Ridge wished that he could put everything behind them, but wasn't sure he could do it. Taylor stated that when their daughter says she didn't do something, she believes her just by looking in Steffy's eyes. Later, Stephanie dragged Liam into Ridge's office and ordered him to tell Ridge how the tribute had been tampered with. Ridge realized that Liam had recorded his conversation with Steffy and accused him of editing it into the tribute. Liam insisted that he wasn't the one who did the editing, but Ridge didn't buy it. Liam revealed that Justin was behind the doctoring. Ridge regretted not believing his daughter. "You did that to me!" he shouted at Liam. "You did that to us." Liam apologized, but Ridge didn't want to hear his excuses. "Give me a chance to make it right," Liam whimpered. "You hurt my daughter," Ridge seethed. Ridge grabbed Liam by the shirt collar — and Liam announced that he's Ridge's son!
