Steffy needs to stop putting it on Hope...

...to get through to Deacon.

It is not Hope's responsibility. And Deacon isn't the problem. The problem is Steffy can't control Finn's feelings. Finn is a grown man and he's going to feel whatever he feels no matter what Deacon tells him.

Of course, Deacon isn't the problem. I think Steffy is in denial, and instead of talking about it, her reaction is to yell at everyone and boss them around.

It would only make sense to be in denial at this point. She has no idea about Sugar, and no normal character could possibly come up with a story like that in their wildest dreams. As far as she knows it’s just Deacon ranting about toes and I’m sick of that myself, even knowing it was true.

I disagree. The fact that Sugar was silent that night is odd. The way the attack happened is odd. I am not saying she should have noticed those things right away but once Deacon started talking about the toes those things would have popped in her head. Steffy is smart she noticed the toes when she ran into her that day at the restaurant and she didn’t even have her face.
It didn’t have to be a crazy doppelgänger it could have been something more normal like a sibling.
Also who cares what Deacon says he is allowed to mourn any way he wants to and Finn could have blocked his number. She protests too much.

If Steffy hadn't been shot and left for dead at the hands of Sheila, I might agree that Steffy would have noticed that things seemed wrong. However, it was clear that she was really agitated and anxious about the weather and the noises outside and especially by the power going out. She was terrified and acting out of fear when she saw "Sheila." Thinking logically during and after wasn't possible.

Even so, none of that makes it Hope's responsibility to get through to Deacon. She told Ridge Hope should have done that already, as if it was Hope's job. Should should be talking about this with Finn. I guess she needs to tighten up his leash.

The only responsible for Deacon, is Deacon.

Agree. And Deacon isn't responsible for Finn. Finn has a mind of his own and no one forced him to go to Deacon's when Deacon texted him.

Finn is definitely responsible for Finn.
