"The Bold and the Beautiful" (BB) for its Oct. 15 and 16 episodes will have Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) under scrutiny by Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) over his decision to send Thomas (Pierson Fode) away. His ex-wife and daughter thinks there's a very specific reason why he is so willing to send his son to Paris and they become more suspicious after Caroline (Linsey Godfrey) defends Ridge over his actions.

According to Soap Opera Story, Steffy and Brooke agree that Ridge has an ulterior motive for sending Thomas away. It reportedly doesn't make sense for Ridge to just suddenly send his son away to Paris after he just made him part of the California Design team to work with him and Caroline.

Ridge tells Caroline that he can no longer look at Thomas as his son after suspecting that he may have sexually taken advantage of her when she was drugged with prescription medicines and alcohol. So he confides in her that he has decided to send Thomas to Paris. Caroline respects and supports his decision.

However, Ridge's actions only brought speculations from Brooke and Steffy. They come up with their own conclusion about Ridge's reason for sending Thomas to Paris. In the video below shared by Soap She Knows, Steffy is heard telling Brooke that Ridge "caught Thomas and Charlotte together." Thomas was reportedly caught making out with Charlotte, an intern at Forrester Creations.

"The funny thing about family is that you argue about one thing and who knows what else comes up," Steffy is also heard saying in the video.

Apparently, Brooke and Steffy still have no idea that Ridge already knows about Thomas being the father of Caroline's baby. Or know that Caroline is pregnant.

Ridge reportedly also has another reason for sending Thomas away from Caroline and away from Los Angeles for good. He plans to take ownership of Caroline's pregnancy and her child as his own. However, Brooke knows all too well that this is impossible. Ridge's vasectomy is irreparable so he is incapable of giving Caroline a family.

On the other hand, Maya and Rick are more than determined to go ahead with their plan of having Nicole as a surrogate mother. The video below also shows the couple seeking the advice of a professional regarding their plan. However, the final decision still lies on Nicole whether she agrees and risks losing her relationship with Zende.
