The Bold and the Beautiful Recap - Wednesday, August 6, 2025 | Ridge Revives Brooke While Grace Begs for Mercy

On Wednesday's The Bold and the Beautiful, Grace buckled under pressure and laid all her cards on the table, while Ridge threw himself into the sea like a romance novel hero to save Brooke. Meanwhile, Donna and Katie got a little too tuned in to the cosmic vibes, and Hope and Liam? Still blissfully clueless and praising the wrong Buckingham.

Brooke Takes a Dive, Ridge Goes Full Lifeguard

In scenic Naples, Brooke’s dreamy boat ride with Nick took a sharp turn into nightmare territory. After that crash landing into the sea, she was floating motionless while Nick lay passed out like a wet rag on deck. Enter Ridge, the only man dramatic enough to dive in fully clothed. He swam like his life — and hers — depended on it.

Ridge hauled Brooke’s lifeless body onto a nearby boat and, just like fans predicted, gave her mouth-to-mouth followed by chest compressions and desperate pleas. While unconscious, Brooke walked a mystical beach toward Ridge in a heavenly vision, arms outstretched. If that doesn’t scream soulmates, what does?

She finally coughed up seawater and came to, locking eyes with her forever ex. Of course, Ridge kissed her. Of course, he promised to make things right. And somewhere in Los Angeles, Donna and Katie were probably nodding in agreement.

Katie and Donna Feel the Chill from Afar

Back at the Forrester mansion, the Logan sisters were sounding the alarm. They were already spiraling over Nick possibly proposing, but now they were getting chills and sensing something bad had happened. Brooke hadn’t posted, hadn’t texted, hadn’t sent one update. For these ladies, that’s code red. The psychic Logan hotline was ringing loud and clear.

Between their worrying and their nostalgic swooning over Brooke and Ridge’s everlasting love, it was practically destiny that Ridge would be the one to rescue her. Again.

Hope and Liam Worship the Wrong Doctor

Over at Bill’s, Liam was soaking in his second chance at life while Hope gazed at him like he was made of glass. They rehashed his brain tumor storyline for the hundredth time and sang Dr. Grace Buckingham’s praises like she was a medical marvel. Liam even wondered how he could ever repay her.

Hope doubled down and called her a saint. Not even a regular angel. A saint. If only they knew what was unraveling across town. Spoiler: she’s neither.

Grace Breaks Down and Plays the Victim

While Hope and Liam were handing out halos, Finn was confronting Grace with all the messy facts. He knew the truth about her scam, and he wasn’t about to let her squirm out of it. Grace tried to justify her actions by blaming Reese and his dangerous gambling debts. She claimed she was being stalked, that her daughters were in danger, and she had no options left. So she drugged Liam to trigger symptoms and pushed for a fake diagnosis. Not exactly saintly behavior.

Finn was floored. She had taken a man through emotional hell just to line her pockets. Grace insisted it was all for her girls. But then she made the boldest move yet — she begged Finn to keep her secret. Just the two of them, handling this like a private mess they could sweep under the rug. She asked for forgiveness. She asked him to protect her. But whether he will is another story.
