Bold and the Beautiful: Brooke Slow on the Uptake with a Panicked Ridge?

Bold and the Beautiful had Brooke Logan needing a nudge to figure out her newest game plan with Ridge Forrester after Nick Marone made a play for her last week on the CBS soap.

For a little while there, it looked as if Brooke didn’t realize what Nick dumped in her lap, that is, until Katie Logan planted the seed for her sister. And that seed grows next week on Bold and Beautiful.

Bold and the Beautiful: Brooke Logan Gets Jump Start

Last week on Bold and the Beautiful, a shocker emerged for Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang), who found herself as the object of affection for an old flame, Nick Marone (Jack Wagner). Nick reminisced about the days when he and Brooke were an item. He even planted a romantic kiss on Brooke.

The oldest Logan sister needed this, as she’s been turned down by Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) several times since he landed back with Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig). She was feeling lonely and rather doomed. But then Nick gave her the jolt she needed… in more ways than one.

B&B: Brooke Realizes Ridge Forrester is Jealous

Bold and the Beautiful has Brooke Logan feeling desired once again. While it’s not by the man she wants, Nick’s attention seemed to pull her out of the doldrums. And Nick also gave her something else.

He gave her enough ammunition to probably get Ridge Forrester back. But she didn’t realize this until Katie Logan (Heather Tom) came along. As Brooke Logan tells Katie about Nick’s flirtatious visit, she mentions how Ridge came through the door, catching them in the middle of their chat. And she also mentioned how Ridge seemed very agitated over the scene he stumbled upon.

Brooke tells Katie that Ridge had an attitude toward Nick, and Katie tells her that it is likely because Ridge is jealous. Then it was like a lightbulb went off over Brooke’s head, and it was as if she hadn’t thought about this before.

So, the Logan matriarch put the wheels in motion. But it was surprising to fans that Brooke couldn’t figure this out all by herself.

Bold and the Beautiful: Going After Ridge From Two Angles

With the help of her sister putting the pieces together last week on Bold and the Beautiful, Brooke wastes no time in testing the waters of jealousy. But instead of dangling bait over Ridge’s head, Brooke heads to Taylor first.

She did enough damage during her visit to Taylor to send the world-renowned doctor over the edge. A desperate Taylor tries to corral Ridge Forrester with a proposal of marriage next week on Bold and the Beautiful.

It seems Taylor realizes that Ridge is jealous of Brooke fraternizing with Nick. So maybe Taylor pounces with this marriage proposal to make sure that jealousy doesn’t push Ridge back to Brooke. Taylor picks a romantic dinner out to pop the question.

But as the Bold and the Beautiful episodes roll along, it seems Nick becomes a real thorn in the side for Ridge. First, he overhears Taylor’s proposal. Then Nick sprints back to Brooke to tell her all about it.

B&B: The Truth Will Set Who Free?

B&B also has Ridge telling the truth to Brooke towards the end of the week, but the details are vague. We can only assume he lowers the boom to Brooke about accepting Taylor’s marriage proposal.

But if Brooke manages to get Ridge jealous enough, she could win him back. So maybe the truth is that he is still her destiny. Next week it also looks like Brooke Logan makes the most of Nick’s attempts to reboot their relationship in more ways than one on the CBS soap.
