What happened on The Bold and the Beautiful

In the hospital security office, Sheila listened as the security guard let others know that Sheila Carter was not allowed in the building. Sheila didn't let that stop her and walked in through a staff door while the guard was distracted. When she re-emerged, she was wearing an old-fashioned nurses' uniform and crept past the guard with a KN95 mask. She was determined to get Taylor to tell her the truth.

In Taylor's office, Deacon noted that he'd brought Taylor a fresh-from-the-oven pizza that hadn't even been cut yet. He made sure to leave the pizza slicer on her desk. Taylor asked Deacon what happened with Sheila. He told her that she didn't seem to suspect anything. Deacon assured Taylor that nobody had followed him there, but he had to check on Taylor and make sure Sheila hadn't done anything to her.

Deacon told Taylor about pretending to be asleep on the couch, but it all became too much for Taylor. "You have all of my heart, but is Steffy right? Is this too dangerous?" she asked. They once again went on and on about how they couldn't live without one another. "Taylor, for the first time in my life, I have found real love," Deacon declared. He described his marriage to Sheila as two lost souls who came together for the wrong reasons.

"If I thought that you were going to come into my life, do you think I ever could have married her?" Deacon asked, wondering how he could walk away from Taylor.

As Deacon put his hand to Taylor's cheek, Sheila quietly walked in and saw the intimate moment. She closed the door and walked a few steps away before watching Deacon leave in his cap and sunglasses disguise. Once Taylor was alone, Sheila walked in and demanded that Taylor tell her what's really been going on.

In the design office, Electra and Ivy continued to discuss RJ. Ivy thought he was the perfect young man for her niece. "He's very mature for his age," Ivy noted. Electra gushed about how fun and attentive RJ was. Ivy pointed out that RJ was a Forrester and there was no better family. They should both know, as they are also Forresters.

Ivy stressed that RJ was the kind of guy that Electra wanted, not someone like Will. "He's got depth, substance," Ivy said. She went on to claim that Will was just like Bill, a "chauvinist pig."

The two women then stared at the photo of RJ and Electra that Ivy posted on social media. They giggled like two teenagers as they extolled the virtues of RJ. "He was raised to be honorable and respect women," Ivy stressed. "Electra, you deserve the very best. That's all I ever wanted for you. I feel like your mother."

Over in the showroom, Brooke took the Ivy role and told RJ that he and Electra would make a wonderful pair. When Ridge walked in, RJ blushed, but Brooke kept going. "We were just talking about Electra and that cute little smile she puts on our son's face," Brooke said.

Ridge reminded them that Electra was dating Will. Ridge was surprised to hear that Ridge and Electra had broken up. Brooke told Ridge all about RJ's private dinner with Electra and was sure she would be the one to keep her son in Los Angeles.

Brooke and Ridge told RJ how amazing and wonderful he is. Ridge reminded RJ to honor his roots while mentioning that RJ looked so much like Massimo, Ridge's biological father. "He was powerful and he made things happen, just like you can," Brooke said.

When RJ went to find Electra, Brooke told Ridge that she was so happy to have RJ home, but also kept mentioning Electra. Ridge told her to stop and stay out of RJ's love life.

Back in the design office, Electra showed RJ her jewelry designs and explained what they represented. "That's a moonstone. It's all about growth and new beginnings," Electra said. RJ smiled, saying that he liked new beginnings. "I'm thinking that moving to L.A. might have been the best decision I ever made," RJ said.

RJ mentioned that he might have to buy one of these pieces to give to a model. He was clearly joking to get Electra's attention and it worked. He even told her how beautiful she was in Portuguese. They ended their conversation with a kiss. Ridge and Brooke watched from the half-open door.
