2-6 February 2009

• Last week episodes were mostly centered around Rick and Steffy’s relationship. After talking to her grandfather, Steffy decided to forgive Rick and met him at the beach house where Stephanie was already there. She seen them kissed and overheard everything including the part where Rick “sold” his Forrester Creations to Jackie M Designs
• When Steffy left after Brooke call to her to say that her father needed her, Stephanie stepped out from the room she was hiding in and approached Rick
• She tried to convince him to leave Steffy alone and spare her the pain of potentiall losing her family if she pursued the relationship with Rick
• The next day when Steffy came over and was told about the Stephanie’s visit, she persuaded Rick to talk and meet up to her mother, Taylor, at her house. Little did they know Stephanie was already there talking to Taylor
• When they arrived and told Taylor, she went berzerk. I could actually feel her frustrations as she tried to reason with Steffy that what Rick is doing is to get back at Ridge and nothing to do with his feelings for her. Unable to convinced her, they chased Rick out of the house and brought long time family friend, James Warrick
• In the meantime, Rick told his mom, Brook, about his relationship with Steffy. Now it as Brooke’s turn to go berzerk. She forbids him to continue with the relationship
• At Jackie M, Bridget Forrester, unsuccessful tried to fool Nick by disguising herself as Madam X. After Nick confronted her, she was ready to quit until Jackie intercepted saying that she was not going anywhere

I’m wondering how Ridge is going to take all this. Any takes?

26-30 January 2009

•  The week started off with Rick admitting to Steffy that he was the one who leaked the Forrester’s Original line to Jackie M Collection. Steffy is not impressed. In fact she insisted that Rick comes clean with his father, Eric, and decided to break things off with Rick
• True to his words, Rick approached Eric and confessed to him. He told Eric everything except the part of him doing it for Steffy and their relationship. He also told Eric that he will leave FC and be the President of Jackie M
• At first Eric was naturally upset, saying thing like “You’re not Ridge. You sold the company out. You sold me out”. Then there’s a totally change of attitude and he told Rick that he (Rick) is not leaving the company and that he would settle everything.
• Eric got Rick, Steffy and Nick to their private jet and made a deal with Nick that he could keep the designs, make all the profits he can make but to leave Rick out of the deal. Nick agreed. Steffy was also told to keep everything to herself. The brat is again goes scot free!
• When Eric told Ridge and Stephanie that he was going to drop the investigation, both of them confirmed their suspicion that Rick was indeed the one responsible for the sabotage. Stephanie called Rick “You little piss-ant”! LOL!
• Bridget is ready for a change and decided to apply as a designer for Jackie M. Jackie accepted her after seeing her designs.
• After talking to her grandfather, Eric, Steffy decided to forgive Rick and after receiving a text message from Rick saying that he missed her, she responded by asking him to meet her at the beach house
• Stephanie saw the message came on Rick’s laptop while snooping around in Rick’s office and immediately went over to the Beach house. She arrived before both  Rick and Steffy and hid in the bedroom instead.
• Rick arrived in  a few minutes and moments later Steffy arrived. Stephanie waited for something happen and watched as the couple talked and faced each other. Then they kissed while Stephanie watched!!

OMG!!! OMG!!!

19-23 January 2009

• It’s a hectic week for Forrester Creations as they get the designs ready for their upcoming show. Little did they know Jackie M Designs is also busy recreating the Forrester Original in their own little office. Jackie somehow convinced Nick that this was alright since it would save her beloved Jackie M.
• In the meantime Nick received another email from “Stormy Seas” making a deal that he would be able to send the rest of the designs if Nick agree to make him President of Jackie M. Jackie is estastic and pressured Nicky into agreeing and the moment Nick hit the “Accept” button, the whole of Forrester’s Design is sent to them.
• Steffy and Rick continue seeing each other in secret
• The day of the fashion show arrived for Jackie M. Katie arrived to give moral support but was asked to leave by Nick saying that everything was alright. However back at the office, Brooke convinced Katie that she should be by Nick’s side during the showing. Katie arrived and was shocked to see Eric’s designs on the runway. She approached Nick but was told he did not steal the design but rather it was an inside treason job by someone at Foresters. Katie called Eric to inform him of the sabotage
• Eric arrived at the fashions show just in time to see his “show stopper” on stage. When he approached Jackie, she refused to acknowledge that those were Forester Originals
• “Stormy Seas” sent a message to Nick during the show saying that he was at Nick’s office. It was RICK!!! It seems he was slighted at the way everyone was treating him at Forrester and he wanted to start fresh somewhere. Nick honored the deal they made
• Rick went back to the office to see Steffy and confessed to her everything saying that what he did was for them.
