The Bold: 1 – 15 May

May 02, 2012

1 – 7 May

Katie tells Donna that she doesn’t know if she can remain married to Bill because of the secrets he had kept from her.  Bill puts a stop to Steffy badmouthing his wife when she reminds him of how Katie walked out on him… again. 

Amber and Liam attend their first ultrasound and become emotional when they hear the heartbeat and see the image of the baby.

Liam questions Amber about who Carl is and what his cryptic comments meant.  While Liam gets distracted by a phone call, Carl gives Amber a final warning to get him his owed money.  Still in awe from the ultrasound, Liam assures Amber that their child will not go without a father. 

Liam tries to convince Hope that the kiss she witnessed between him and Amber wasn’t what it seemed.  Amber is certain that Hope will not want anything to do with Liam after she had seen them kiss.  After Hope leaves, Amber comforts Liam and attempts to seduce him. 

Liam admits to Amber that he wants to be a good father, but isn’t sure about them having a relationship.  Ridge tells Thomas that his designs are good, but not good enough and that Forrester Creations will not move forward with a women’s Taboo line. 

When Amber cranks up her seduction a couple of notches, Liam begins to succumb to her advances.  During Hope and Oliver’s movie date, he suggests that she move on from Liam and be happy again… but with him.  Thomas tells Brooke that he thinks that Ridge is threatened by him.

8 – 15 May

Hope fantasizes that Liam comes to see her, apologizes, and begs for forgiveness so they can move forward and get married one day.  Oliver begins to worry after Hope tells him that she doesn’t think that she can ever sleep with Liam since he has had sex with Amber.  Liam tells Amber that he isn’t ready for a relationship with her and admits that sleeping with her was a mistake. 

Brooke tries to convince Hope to get back together with Oliver.  Despite his own relationship woes, Liam encourages Bill not to give up on Katie.  Amber goes to see Oliver to find out what happened between him and Hope the night before. 

Thomas catches Steffy staring at a picture of Bill and bluntly accuses her of sleeping with him.  Amber tries to convince Oliver to get Hope to sleep with him so that she will forget about Liam.  After Hope reprimands Liam about sleeping with Amber, she tells him that they need to end their relationship permanently and that he needs to be with Amber and their baby.

Donna tries to persuade Katie that Bill is not worth the heartache and that she should leave him for good.  Hope is appalled when Tawny suggests that she and Amber put their past behind them and become friends.   Ridge is less than surprised when Brooke tells him about Liam sleeping with Amber. 

Brooke knows about Steffy’s attraction to Bill and warns her to stay away from Katie’s husband.  Steffy, in response, urges Brooke to back off of Thomas and the mixed signals she’s been giving him.  Ridge is furious by the lack of respect he is given by his son when Thomas goes behind his back again and presents new designs for the women’s Taboo line.

Ridge makes a bold gesture to Thomas by giving him 5% of Forrester Creations’ stock, making him a part owner of the company.
