No KKL this week

I think in that case Ridge should have at least mentioned that he called Brooke. Taylor mentioned that she called Steffy even though the call happened off screen.

I agree he should have mentioned it. But the call to Li was Ridge's last scene of the episode, so there was no time left after that. And I just saw that the weekly recap in SOD even says he called Brooke before Li. Those weekly recaps always summarize the original scripts, for example last week's recap still said that Brooke, not Hope, was the one having brunch with Donna and Katie. So it looks like those scenes at the office also got rewritten at the last minute because of KKL's injury.
I'm pretty sure Ridge calling Brooke and her reaction to the news was originally meant to be shown on screen while Taylor was calling Steffy, before anyone even brought up Li. But when KKL still wasn't available, they replaced that call with having Zende walk in right after Baker had left and Ridge updating him instead. Because hearing Ridge tell Brooke about Sheila's escape without seeing her reaction would have been just as pointless as hearing Taylor tell Steffy. I already thought that Zende's appearance in that scene was pretty awkward when I was watching the episode the other day, since he never had anything to do with Sheila before, but this way it makes sense. And that scene definitely wasn't meant to show that Ridge cares more about Taylor and even Li than about Brooke.
