It is always a treat to see Owen's delicious abs. I think he should always be shirtless when he's on but an unbuttoned shirt works for me too although he probably should keep it buttoned when he's heading up to see Bridget and giving her ice cream. Talk about a bad time for the AC to conk out. But at least she didn't wander downstairs and kept put at Whip's place. He also wanted to tell her about what happened at the press conference.

Hope did stick around to listen to Brooke and Oliver try to explain. I don't blame her one bit for thinking the worst considering her Mom's history. Hell she doesn't even blame Skanky One for the truth coming out. But of course I have to wonder if she'd change her mind if she knew that the girl was trying to blackmail Mom and Oliver. This whole storyline was a bit ridiculous because it made no sense that Brooke wouldn't know her own husband even with masks on. It is different with Oliver since he'd never been with Hope so him mistaking her for Hope is kind of more believable while it just makes Brooke look like she's out on the prowl for another notch on her bedpost.

I'm sorry but Stephanie and Taylor were being total hypocrites. She's talking about Ridge keeping his head in the sand. Well what about her keeping her head in the sand about her daughter? Um bitch your daughter should have consequences for her actions. She's no innocent. Sure she didn't drop this bomb but come one she totally would have if Brooke refused to go along with her demands that would have grown and grown. And Stephanie how many times have you taken Eric back after he's strayed on you? Who are you to judge Ridge for doing something that you've done yourself countless times? But of course I forgot that if you have the name Forrester you can get away with anything. At least the guy's making a stand for a change.

Hope ends up going to see Bridget and wow this would be the first time I've seen them together. Unless I missed something I'm pretty sure this is the first scene that Bridget and Hope have had since Kimberly joined the show. That had to be a bit awkward since she's knocked up with her step father-in-law's baby. At least she's somewhere away from Brooke since she doesn't need Brooke to come running after her. Come on that's just silly chasing after her after she made it quite clear she didn't want to speak to her or see her. Hell I wouldn't have stuck around as long as she did.

Was Skanky One supposed to get a pat on the back for this? Sure she didn't expose the secret but it is totally understandable that Ridge would blame her after all it was her voice. Sure if he was thinking he could consider the possibility that someone is setting her up but considering her behavior it is no surprise that he'd think the worst of her. I guess it slipped her mind that some IT guy was fixing her computer. I wonder if she'll think about Liam later on who did take her computer. I'm just confused about why the computer guy would also be working at Spencer Publications. I would think that would be a big no no.
