Ep. #3588

Deacon calls Brooke and asks her if he's done something to cause this hostility. Brooke admits to Dr. Isabel that she doesn't hate Deacon at all. She explains that when she and Deacon made love, they connected both emotionally and physically. She adds that she felt a passion with Deacon that she hasn't felt in years. When Brooke insists that a future with Deacon is impossible, Dr. Isabel asks if Deacon is married. Brooke confesses that she can't stop seeing Deacon because he's married to Brooke's daughter. Bridget tells Deacon that Brooke would be furious if she knew Ridge was pulling the Brooke's Bedroom line. Bridget is touched by Deacon's concern for Brooke. Ridge tells Rick that he'll explain why he's pulling the lingerie line, but Rick isn't going to like what he hears. Ridge explains that the line damaged the Forrester reputation and drove away their more conservative clientele. Rick wants Ridge to admit that Stephanie and Taylor put him up to this. Rick asks for research supporting the decision, but Ridge doesn't feel he owes Rick any more of an explanation.
