Brooke taking the high road is a contrived plot point:

• Steffy will determine Hope was behind this - just like the coup - at least in rewritten version since they can't blame Ridge's brother Carter.

• Steffy axes HFTF

• Hope joins LOGAN and Brooke will have to be OK with it.

• Brooke realizes she's been deluding herself that she's a Forrester equal, even though she's mother to two Forresters Rick/Bridget. Rick needs to be back to support his mother.

• Brooke plots to dump Ridge Marone for Eric to lay claim to Forrester matriarch. Donna should be with Justin anyway.

I hope I'm seeing signs of early 90s Brooke. Plotting, conniving... playing the long game. If they rewrite this or forget about it in couple of weeks... it will be a huge disappointment. What (I think) Brooke is doing right now is manipulating Ridge into thinking that she's the good person versus Steffy as the evil b-tch. Now that she's pretending that she's okay with his decision... when Ridge asks Steffy to give Hope another chance and she disagrees... Brooke will be there to remind Ridge how he chose Steffy and gave her everything and how she is not giving him anything in return. In other ways - she's trying to turn Ridge against Steffy by making him believe that Steffy wants all of the control - even over Ridge... That's when she will strip to her underwear again and try it ONE MORE TIME to seduce him into giving her that position. IT'S classic Brooke Logan. We'll see.
