On The Bold and the Beautiful this past week, Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen) was informed by Steffy and Thomas that Brooke kissed Deacon on New Year’s Eve and they have camera footage to show it. Allen showed Taylor’s mixed emotions in her reaction to the news beautifully: first shock (wide eyes, gaping mouth), and then not so shocked (slight smile, nervous giggle, while covering her mouth). After all, this is the Slut of the Valley we’re talking about; it shouldn’t be a shocker to Taylor! Taylor decides to tell Ridge which is hard on her. Taylor does have feelings for Ridge and would love for Brooke to be out of the picture, but she knows how Ridge feels for Brooke and she doesn’t want to see him hurt. Taylor is anxious to tell him; Allen captures this by Taylor’s nervous ramblings when Ridge first shows up. Ridge thinks he knows what Taylor is going to tell him; that Brooke relapsed on New Year’s. Taylor was itching to tell Ridge that there is more to the story (Allen’s shifty eye glances at Ridge were spot on!) and she ultimately gets around to telling Ridge about Deacon. Ridge is in disbelief and Taylor is heart broken for him. Allen’s teary eyes sells the audience that her intentions are good in telling Ridge the truth; she is in no way happy about the news (even if it could ultimately be a benefit to her in the long run). Later on, Taylor decides to confront Brooke herself. Allen’s line delivery of “Well at least I knocked first” which was a jab to when Brooke showed up to Taylor and just waltzed in the past was so good and shows off her comedic timing! Fans are looking forward to Taylor and Brooke’s show down and to see what else lies ahead for Allen in this storyline!

Peter ultimately agrees, but won’t let Maxie call someone they know. Instead he talks her into leaving Louise dropped off at a fire station, where it would be anonymous. Maxie has a tearful goodbye and leaves one of her earrings behind with the baby so it would help people be able to realize Maxie was with the baby and Peter.
