That Weird Phone Call (General)

takerkid @, 9/29/2022, 2:29PM (582 days ago)

There were so many things wrong with all of this. I've never heard of a CPS consulting service so that was odd. What was even stranger is that he had access to specific case files. Even if a consulting firm that works with CPS was such a thing, I seriously doubt they'd have unfettered access to sensitive case information. I can also assure 100% that those investigators couldn't have gotten back to the office, typed up their report, and gotten the ok from their supervisor to officially close the case in that short amount of time. That was all soap opera magic. That phone call though. What was that? It didn't sound like the voice app because the app sounded less robotic than that. I'm not sure what exactly they did their. Nonetheless I don't understand this decision. If that really was supposed to be the Thomas and that app, are we really supposed to feel bad for Brooke. She flipped out unnecessarily and way overreacted. She brought up CPS in the first place but we're supposed to have sympathy because she didn't place call? Nice try but Brooke's hands aren't clean in this. She walked into someone else's home, overreacted, provoked a fight, and then threatened to call CPS. Just because she's going to lose her husband doesn't make her a victim. If she hadn't been so adamantly opposed to Thomas stepping up more, she and Ridge wouldn't be at odds and he would more confused and less livid at this moment. Brooke set up her own undoing. I just wish she'd made the call so she wouldn't have an excuse. Maybe they're trying to recreate 2006 so Ridge can make the right choice this time and not abandon Taylor.

Thomas is the villain here, not Brooke. If this goes the way it looks like it's going, Brooke will once again be Thomas's victim. And Taylor will get Ridge because of his kids' manipulations.

How are you a victim if you park your car in an intersection and someone eventually hits you? That's what Brooke did here. She set everything in motion and it looks like Thomas finished it.

I think you may be missing the broader point. Brooke didn't overreact. If Thomas faked that phone call then Brooke was right about him that he hasn't changed and he has no place raising a child.

It proves that he's still a manipulative schemer. Ridge will have to apologize to Brooke yet again. Because she's right about Thomas. IF he did this. And it looks like he did.

Brooke needs to give Ridge a major stipulation if she takes him back this time..non-negotiable. And that stipulation is...Ridge needs to cut his loony brats out of their life. He can take it or leave it...but thus garbage needs to end.

Yup. He can never take his brats' word over Brooke's again. Enough is enough.

Brooke is right. Thomas still has feelings for Hope. It’s been shown.
He is still bad mouthing Hope’s husband.
He took his son out of a home that was made for him out of love. Yes his son wants to spend more time with him but now you are wrecking his normalcy in the the way they claim Brooke did.
Finally, unless adopted people and their family should be considered different, which we should not think that way, a grandmother is going to be concerned about her grandchild. Period. She had a right to speak up when she felt Douglas could be hurt unnecessarily.

No,there were a few more twists and turns. Her just saying she WOULD call CPS did not mean that she did or was the only one who might do that if Douglas were mistreated in Thomas's care.

Lol, I think it's very easy to understand this decision..Thomas hates Brooke with a passion and his motives are he wants to rid of Brooke and blow up her marriage just so their married daddy can be with desperate ma for good.

Makes perfect sense to me because Thomas hasn't changed at all. Just recently, he conspired with evil Sheila and kept her secret no different than when he kept the Beth is alive secret.

Brooke has been Thomas's victim many, many times. It makes perfect sense. What proof was there that Thomas had changed? Conspiring with Sheila? Keeping Ridge's phone so he wouldn't get Brooke's calls? Conspiring with Steffy to break up Brooke's marriage?

Well, the victim in this story is certainly not Tom but Brooke of course...Tom and Steffy are relentlessly working on taking their father away from Brooke for nine months now...they broke into her security sytem, practically put their father in bed with Taylor, told them like parrots that they just had to be together to make their children happy and now Tom tried actually fraud to finally get their way.

I understand how you feel, taker, but I don't think anyone should blame Brooke just because she does not trust Thomas as far as she can throw him over her shoulder and did say she would call DPS in a minute IF Thomas was neglecting or mistreating Douglas now that he was with him.

Anyone else could have said that too and I doubt any of you would want them probed like Brooke.

I haven't watched yet, just read the recap. On the phone call, the caller identifies herself as Brooke Logan. If it was really Brooke, I would think that she would have called herself Brooke Forrester. Since Thomas and Steffy does not consider Brooke a Forrester, it sounds more like Thomas made the call with the voice app.

Glad you brought up this point because when I was watching, I noticed it too that the caller said she's Brooke Logan, not Brooke Forrester. Thomas definitely wouldn't have the voice app say Brooke Forrester since he and Steffy hates Brooke and don't see Brooke as a Forrester.

I have my suspicions that Douglas did it. He was home when Brooke came over and he probably overheard Thomas talk to Taylor about Brooke & her threatening to call CPS.We also know that Doug has the voice app on his phone and he’s smart. I think Thomas is too obvious but it could be him after all. We’ll see.

Upset at Brooke for her conversation with Thomas about him leaving the mansion and to reunite his grandma with grandpa. It wouldn’t surprise me if Doug has been eavesdropping on the conversations.

I just wish she'd made the call so she wouldn't have an excuse. Maybe they're trying to recreate 2006 so Ridge can make the right choice this time and not abandon Taylor.


I have my suspicions that Douglas did it. He was home when Brooke came over and he probably overheard Thomas talk to Taylor about Brooke & her threatening to call CPS.We also know that Doug has the voice app on his phone and he’s smart. I think Thomas is too obvious but it could be him after all. We’ll see.


What would be Douglas's motive?


Upset at Brooke for her conversation with Thomas about him leaving the mansion and to reunite his grandma with grandpa. It wouldn’t surprise me if Doug has been eavesdropping on the conversations.

Douglas has never shown signs of hatred towards Brooke (like his father and aunt has shown time and time again). My money is on Thomas.

There were so many things wrong with all of this. I've never heard of a CPS consulting service so that was odd. What was even stranger is that he had access to specific case files. Even if a consulting firm that works with CPS was such a thing, I seriously doubt they'd have unfettered access to sensitive case information. I can also assure 100% that those investigators couldn't have gotten back to the office, typed up their report, and gotten the ok from their supervisor to officially close the case in that short amount of time. That was all soap opera magic. That phone call though. What was that? It didn't sound like the voice app because the app sounded less robotic than that. I'm not sure what exactly they did their. Nonetheless I don't understand this decision. If that really was supposed to be the Thomas and that app, are we really supposed to feel bad for Brooke. She flipped out unnecessarily and way overreacted. She brought up CPS in the first place but we're supposed to have sympathy because she didn't place call? Nice try but Brooke's hands aren't clean in this. She walked into someone else's home, overreacted, provoked a fight, and then threatened to call CPS. Just because she's going to lose her husband doesn't make her a victim. If she hadn't been so adamantly opposed to Thomas stepping up more, she and Ridge wouldn't be at odds and he would more confused and less livid at this moment. Brooke set up her own undoing.

Brooke's hands are entirely clean and she is the victim and all because Tommy hates Brooke and wants mommy and daddy together. Brooke has been attacked, bullied and abused by the faux Forresters for months now. No sympathy? You don't like Brooke. No biggie. However, that sick son of a witch just put his own child through a CPS interview. That's crazy.

Brooke's hands are hardly clean. She started this situation by storming into Eric's house. If he made the call Thomas finished it. Douglas didn't even know those people were from CPS. Kudos to them they handled that aspect of the CPS interaction accurately.

Ridge already knows Brooke went to see Thomas. He was defending her to Thomas after that. It will be the manipulation that makes him run to Taylor.

On the contrary, the situation started with Steffy, Thomas and Taylor and their attack on Brooke and the Logans. Add to that, Thomas taking Douglas from his home with Hope and Liam on the pretext of an overnight with daddy. And, what has Brooke actually done in the past 9-10 months that is so manipulative?

Brooke hasn't done anything Taylor hasn't done. No one on this show has clean hands. I don't think any soap character does.

And when has BB ever adhered to anything close to reality? LOL

Taker, I appreciate that you started the thread that it was one weird call. Thank you. Because that was one weird call. It sounded robotic, I mean, not even like it was a real person at all. If she had not said "Brooke Logan" I am not sure Ridge would have been able to even accuse her of it. Of course, we know now, he cannot accuse her of it, because he promised Walter he would not tell the person that called. So, if it is Tom, Ridge is just going to run out on Brooke and head to Aspen to tell her he loves her and is dumping Brooke, without telling Brooke first. That is really messed up. I get the impression that Bill is just going to tell her that Steffy went to Aspen. Anyway, if Tom did this, than yes, we are suppose to feel sorry for Brooke because yet again, she is his victim. She deserves our sympathy because it will mean that her being afraid of him and believing he has not changed, is correct.
