The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) recap for Tuesday, August 5, reveals that Grace Buckingham (Cassandra Creech) confirmed Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) never had a brain tumor while Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) had a scary water accident.
After Eric Forrester’s (John McCook) warning about Nick Marone’s (Jack Wagner) looming proposal, Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) refused to let Nick ruin Brooke’s life and took off to stop the engagement.
Ridge went searching for Brooke and overheard Nick’s name down on the docks, where he learned Nick’s boat had been taken out when the “steering was no good.”
Next on Tuesday’s B&B episode, Nick and Brooke had a lovely Italian dinner for two before they finally had their boat ride.
Brooke was on the back of the vessel as Ridge frantically called and left a voicemail about something being wrong with Nick’s boat.
Back with Nick, he struggled to steer as another boat rushed up beside them. Brooke went flying off Nick’s boat as Ridge watched in the distance, so he immediately dove in the water and swam toward her.
At the Spencer mansion, Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) teased Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) since she kept fussing over him and offering him things like extra blankets.
Liam assured Hope that he was good and eventually opened up about the tale of two Buckinghams.
It was hard for Liam to think about all the heartbreak Reese Buckingham (Wayne Brady) caused when he let them believe Beth Spencer (Jordyn Grace) was gone forever.
Now Grace had saved Liam’s life – or so he thought.
Hope acknowledged that Grace was a “saint of a woman,” so she agreed with Liam about how much they owed her.
At the hospital, John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) spelled out all the suspicious aspects of this case – like the off-site surgery for way too much money and this new doctor he’d never heard of.
Finn also recalled how Grace was the one who brought the tumor news to him in the first place and how she was quick to take over when he tried to take Liam down to the neuro team.
Finn suspected that all the scans and evidence were fake, so he wondered if this procedure with miniscule incisions and a crazy fast recovery time was even necessary.
In fact, Finn wondered if Liam even had a brain tumor to begin with!
Grace tried to keep up her innocent act, but she finally broke down in tears and confessed that Finn was right.
However, Grace argued that she had no choice since the people Reese owed money to were threatening her.
Grace insisted they knew where Paric Buckingham (Diamond White) and Zoe Buckingham (Kiara Barnes) lived, so she was clearly terrified for her daughters’ safety.
Since these people weren’t messing around and wanted the gambling debt paid by a certain deadline, Grace confirmed that she faked Liam’s brain tumor and gave him this phony diagnosis.
As Finn stood there taking it all in, Grace sobbed angrily and tried to explain how desperate she was.
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Grace will have more confessions to make in the coming episodes, so stay tuned shockers ahead for Liam, Hope and Bill Spencer (Don Diamont).
