Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 14, 2014 Members Share Posted May 14, 2014 She did. She hopped in the car with Rick upon finding out that her mother, Taylor was screwing him (as Phoebe had a thing with Rick previously before leaving town). The two got into an argument and she started clawing at his face and the car went off the road. She caused the accident IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 14, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 14, 2014 Bravo! Both Hunter and Ashlyn did an amazing job today. I love how effectively the flashbacks were used Actually Phoebe died months after she learned about Taylor and Rick being together. They had actually broken up and Taylor was back to wanting Ridge by this point. Phoebe and Rick were fighting bc Phoebe just learned that Rick was trying to seduce Steffy to get back at Ridge for how his engagement to Taylor ended. Phoebe was disgusted and went in on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 14, 2014 Members Share Posted May 14, 2014 Thanks! That's right. I remember now. She was hitting him and stepped on his foot, which was on the gas. Then Rick went to get help and Phoebe died in Ridge's arms. Pretty sad. I wish they hadn't killed her off, but i guess they thought the character was redundant.

Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 Oh yeah. You're right. I knew Rick was screwing either Taylor or Steffy at the time, which pissed Phoebe off. Hell, it's all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 Ridge is the only one in their quartet being unreasonable. It's not like Bill is complaining about Ridge's shower schedule! Great acting from Hunter and Ashlyn today.[i think HTs face even moved!] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 I don't get why the writers are TRYING to make us dislike Ridge now. Suddenly, he is turned into a primo jerk (the Oliver thing, $Bill, etc.). I just don't get this story angle. It's not like RJ is some "fragile" or sick child. I get that they want to create on-screen conflict for the two male characters, but this is not a beat to explore. I hope this get dropped soon.

Members Aback Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 To be honest I wouldn't want $Bill around my child either... anyway I love to hate Ridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted May 15, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 I firmly believe TK was cast as Ridge to sell Bill and Brooke together. What we are seeing on screen helps support that theory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 Perhaps - although in my eyes Brill didn't need selling. IMO - the pair meshed well shockingly quickly. Don't get me wrong, I think TK has been a great addition to the cast - I'm just trying to figure out what the writers are thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 To make Brooke look good would be my guess. I think Bill is more the star of this show than Ridge at this point as well. Bingo. When Ridge looks unreasonable Brill look better. Not to me, but in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 15, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 It worked for me as I really hated the couple before but am now sold on them bc Ridge and Katie are so awful in comparison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 Nothing can make Brooke look good to me right now. She can be smug or she can be a home wrecking slut. When they make her a smug home wrecking slut, I take umbrage. I've never really cared for Heather Tom, but I've liked Katie more than Brooke for some time now. This story would have been much better (and believable) if Steffy were playing Brooke's part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Nate4 Posted May 16, 2014 Members Share Posted May 16, 2014 Really liked today's episode! Cannot believe I'm staying this, but I'm loving brooke and bill! I am team brooke for the first time IN YEARS. Ridge and Katie are boring and gross! Loved the Taylor and throne scenes. I really hope Aly really still hates Taylor and is just faking it for throne. I'm all here for Taylor getting preggers and Aly pushing her down the stairs! Oliver and Aly <3 Throne and Taylor <3 Brooke and Bill <3 No Hope or Wyatt <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 16, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 16, 2014 Typical Ridge! Now he's protesting wanting Brooke to marry Bill, as if he has a choice. He's trying to use RJ as an excuse to justify this but this is typical Ridge. He NEVER wants Brooke to be happy away from him. Every time she seemingly moves on and closes the door on him with a new man, he is there trying to break it up. Even if he doesn't necessarily want her, he doesn't want any other man to have her either. We've seen this when she fell for Eric, Thorne, Nick and now Bill. He's been in love in committed relationships with other women, primarily Taylor, but that still would not stop him from getting involved in Brooke's love life. He has a sick need of having her salivate over him, which I figure is to stroke his big ego. When she's not doing that, he goes into panic mode and will find a way to ruin her relationships, bc ultimately he does not want her to be happy away from him. His reaction to Bill and Katie telling him that Brooke will likely eventually marry Bill, hit a nerve with him and he's back to his usual tricks. I don't buy that RJ is 100% behind him being so irrational and hypocritical about this. I do believe there is a level of wanting Brooke to fail at love yet again so that he can be the only man in her eyes even if that means rejecting and hurting her yet again.
