She was trying to protect her daughter, who she feared was in danger from the man who manipulated her into marriage and lied about her daughter being alive. However, as Thomas remains unconscious in the hospital and more details about his accident surface, Brooke could find herself looking at both legal and marriage troubles as a result of what happened at the cliff house on the Wednesday, August 28 episode of “The Bold and the Beautiful.”

Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) thought Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) was threatening Hope (Annika Noelle) when she saw them together at the cliff house, and considering how dangerous things had seemed to get previously on the CBS soap, and the lengths Thomas had gone to get Hope for himself, she immediately went into protective mother mode and pushed him away from Hope. However, he wound up going off the cliff instead and is not unconscious in the hospital—and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) seems to believe his wife may have hurt his son purposely after all of her prior comments and warnings about his behavior.

Now, following Hope’s reveal that Thomas had actually been apologizing to her for everything he had done and wasn’t threatening her, meaning Brooke misconstrued the situation, things may only get worse for her mother and step-father's marriage.

“Ridge expresses disbelief regarding Brooke’s explanation and Thomas’ actions,” spoilers reveal.

Naturally, Ridge, who didn’t believe Brooke in the past when she insisted that something wasn’t right with Thomas and he was obsessed with Hope, will continue having a hard time accepting his wife didn’t do things on purpose. As the police also begin to investigate, it could mean that she won’t have his support either if the events that led to his fall are questioned.

“The Bold and the Beautiful” airs weekdays at 1:30 p.m. EDT on CBS.
