"The Bold and the Beautiful" recap

In the previous episode, Steffy revealed to Liam that she and Wyatt have ended their relationship. She said that she needs Quinn out of her life, and it means having Wyatt out of her radar, too. Liam embraced her and reassured her that he knew they would end up that way. “We made it, Steffy,” he said and they kissed. Meanwhile, things were not going as smoothly at first between Zende and Nicole. He can’t believe that Nicole’s actually considering saying yes to Rick and Maya’s request to give them another baby. Zende reckoned that she already gave them the ultimate gift – they can’t ask for it again. He told her she has to turn them down and Nicole replied that she’ll tell them she can’t do it. The two ended up kissing.
