On this past week of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy
Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) remembered the chain of events that took
place the night of the shooting.  She recalled
that Sheila shot Finn and then shot her and left her for dead.  Wood took fans on Steffy’s rollercoaster of
emotions as she was shaken up at the horrifying memories that came flooding
back and having to relive her husband’s murder. 
Wood showed the shock and fear followed by the disgust, anger, and rage
Steffy had toward Sheila and what Sheila took from her.  When Sheila came over, under the impression
that the Forrester’s wanted Sheila to have a place in Hayes’ life, it took
everything in Steffy not to reveal the truth upfront.  Wood showed this perfectly as Steffy took a
moment to breathe as she closed her eyes as Sheila babbled on.  However, when Sheila started to talk about
Finn more and more, Steffy couldn’t keep the charade up much longer.  The confrontation between Steffy and Sheila
was a long time coming and Wood did not disappoint.  Fans could feel Steffy’s rage and grief
through Wood’s powerful performance.  While
fans are still upset over the loss of Finn, one thing fans can count on is that
Wood will knock her scenes out of the park every time.  Bravo Wood!  

The Bold & The Beautiful

Steffy starts to remember what happened the night of the shooting
in pieces.  She remembers seeing Sheila
in the alley and that they were arguing. 
She then recalls Finn appearing in time to save her and that Sheila shot
him, then her and left them to die. 
Taylor and Ridge go to call the police, but Steffy urges them not to
yet.  She wants the chance to confront
her first in her home.  She asks for
Taylor to call her to arrange a visit with Hayes.  

Sheila tells Deacon that she and Steffy are responsible for
Finn’s death and after a failed attempt at visiting Hayes, she thinks it’s best
that she leaves town.  Deacon tries to
convince her to stay and to give things time. Taylor then calls Sheila to
invite her over.  Sheila is delighted and
thinks things are going in her favor. 
She tells Deacon the good news and then leaves.  Deacon then stops by to see Hope and Brooke,
who are not happy that Ridge is not home and that Steffy is spending more time
with Liam.  Deacon tells them the news
about Sheila and they are shocked that the Forrester’s would let her near
Hayes.

When Sheila arrives, Steffy drops the bomb that she
remembers what happened the night of the shooting.  Sheila tries to blame her faulty memory and
claim Steffy is fabricating what she thinks happens.  Ridge and Taylor don’t buy it.  Taylor makes it known she believes
Steffy.  Sheila then tries to blame
Steffy for what happened that night; that Finn wasn’t supposed to be there and
he wasn’t her target.  She also helps
Steffy remember why they were fighting in the first place.  It was because Steffy confronted her about
tricking Brooke into getting to drink and that Thomas also found out.  Sheila acts like she did the Forrester family
a favor for getting Brooke out of the way and that Steffy pushing Sheila away
caused the shooting.

they can be together.  He tells her they
shouldn’t be together.  Paris wonders if

Eric.  Meanwhile, Eric is having an
