TV Guide reports that on Tuesday’s episode of the “Bold and the Beautiful,” Rick milks Ridge’s confession for what it’s worth, and uses this to throw him out Forrester Creations. Meanwhile, Deacon unexpectedly turns up at Quinn’s doorstep and things get heated.

The show’s official YouTube channel posted a preview video for the July 12 episode. It features multiple scenes with Deacon, Caroline, Thomas and Rick.

On the first scene, Deacon is surprised to learn about Quinn’s new man. “I never thought Eric Forrester was the leather and chains type,” he says. Quinn refuses to let Deacon discourage her. “Eric is attracted to bad girls,” she claims. “I’m everything that he wants in a woman.”

Thomas also figures in the clip as he assures Caroline that he understands her past actions. “You weren’t trying to hurt me – you were trying to protect your family,” he tells her. “But deep down I knew that it was wrong,” she insists.

The preview video also highlights Ridge, as he drops a bombshell to his family. “I’m not his father and he’s not my son,” he announces. Rick just can’t hide his excitement over this development. “The day of reckoning has come,” Rick says.

"The Bold and the Beautiful" recap

In the previous episode, an epic argument erupted after Brooke confessed to Katie what happened. Katie’s on a rampage – she bid goodbye to her sister then focused her attention on her philandering husband. Katie and Bill engaged in a heated verbal war, which ended when Katie kicked him off the house. When she went upstairs to go to her son, she didn’t find him anywhere. She confronted Bill, who said he won’t let his son grow up in that crazy environment. Katie was beside herself and fell to her knees as her husband left.

Elsewhere, Liam was on a mission – to get Steffy back. He talked to her about Bill’s situation and begged her to come home with him. At that point, Wyatt arrived and could not believe Liam’s at it again. Liam reiterated that Bill is a hypocrite, and it led him to realise that he doesn’t need to respect their wedding vows anymore. Wyatt disagreed and said it’s not an excuse for Liam to continue pursuing Steffy. Wyatt also reminded his brother that his future is with Steffy and no one can change that.
