Daring and the Stunning reveals Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) fantasizing about Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan), regardless that she is aware of higher and shouldn’t be doing it. He’s a married man, and Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) thinks that he’s her dream man and her future. However that will change quickly.
Truthfully, I feel Taylor ought to steal Deacon. We’re going to lay out why I completely suppose that not solely ought to Taylor take Deacon from Sheila, however that she could be completely justified to do it. It’s karma, and I don’t suppose Taylor ought to really feel an oz of guilt if she does take Sheila’s man.
Why Taylor Hayes is Justified in Pursuing a Married Man on Daring and the Stunning
If this was every other affected person of Taylor’s on Daring and the Stunning, you recognize, if Deacon was just a few random man who got here in for remedy to cope with his spouse mendacity to him, I might say, “Yeah, Taylor ought to hold her arms off of Deacon, even when his spouse was terrible.”
However on this case, particularly as a result of it’s Sheila, it’s much more nuanced and sophisticated. The truth is, I feel Taylor could be completely justified in stealing any man that Sheila was with, whether or not it’s Deacon or, you recognize, Invoice Spencer (Don Diamont) again once they had been collectively if that hadn’t turned out to be a scheme that he was working.
The underside line is, Sheila owes Taylor much more, I feel, than only a husband. She owes her years of her life. So, I really feel fairly certain that B&B goes to go there, and we’re going to see Taylor wind up with Deacon, not less than for some time. And I feel Sheila ought to settle for that it’s karma coming to ship what’s due.
A Historical past of Violence: When Sheila “Killed” Taylor on Daring and the Stunning
Right here’s my reasoning. And once more, I’m not saying Taylor ought to do that to anyone else, however Sheila is a particular case due to very particular issues that she has achieved to Taylor. Do you keep in mind again in 2002 when Hunter Tylo was nonetheless within the function? Sheila was doing a few of her common loopy legal stuff, and she or he was kidnapping folks, doing dastardly violent issues. Taylor had come over to the Forrester mansion to warn Eric Forrester (John McCook) that psycho Sheila was on the unfastened and wreaking havoc, however Taylor was too late.
When she acquired there, Sheila was already holding Eric at gunpoint after which she took Taylor hostage. The doc tried to do her shrink factor and calm Sheila down, get her to allow them to go as hostages. And Taylor nearly had it. It nearly labored till Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) burst within the door and startled Sheila, who then turned the gun on Brooke. Taylor leaped into motion and fought Sheila for the gun, and she or he wound up capturing Taylor within the chest. She was rushed to the hospital, had surgical procedure, and she or he died in Ridge Forrester’s (Thorsten Kaye) arms on the hospital.
Solely Taylor wasn’t actually useless. She was stolen by Prince Omar, who had discovered a faint heartbeat and he saved her. The underside line was Taylor’s entire household thought she was useless for 3 years due to Sheila. And within the interim, guess what? Ridge acquired with Brooke. So, a number of years in the past, Taylor instructed Sheila that she forgave her. However, I imply, come on, there’s extra to it than that.

Sheila’s Reign of Terror Continues: Focusing on Steffy Forrester
Not solely does Taylor owe Sheila some payback for principally capturing her to demise 20 years in the past, however she additionally owes her for what she did to her daughter, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wooden), simply a few years in the past. In the event you recall, Sheila shot Steffy again in 2022. She didn’t need Sheila round Finn (Tanner Novlan) and was giving ultimatums. Steffy had not too long ago came upon that Sheila had swapped Brooke’s non-alcoholic glowing wine for actual champagne and pushed her off the wagon, and Brooke began getting drunk once more.
Steffy mentioned that Sheila hadn’t modified and would by no means see Finn or Hayes Forrester Finnegan (Bryan Garlick) once more. That’s when Sheila snapped and she or he shot at Steffy, however Finn jumped in and took a bullet for his spouse. Then, when Steffy tried to name 911 for an ambulance for Finn, Sheila shot her too and tried to make it seem like a theft and took off. So, Steffy survived, however she thought Finn had died and it broke her coronary heart. Though followers had discovered he was alive, it was this massive reveal when he discovered Steffy in Monaco they usually had been reunited. However nonetheless, psycho Sheila shot Steffy and tried to homicide Taylor’s daughter in chilly blood.
The Collapse of a Marriage and the Rise of a New Romance
After the havoc that Sheila has wreaked in Taylor’s life and the lives of her family members, I feel it will be absolute karma if Taylor took her man. Plus, don’t overlook that Sheila has been aiding and abetting lunatic Luna, who additionally desires to kill Steffy and has tried greater than as soon as to kill her. If not for Sheila, Luna may not have tried to shoot Steffy after which really shot Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) on the Malibu home.
Now, in her protection, Sheila did try to cease Luna from capturing Steffy and from capturing Liam, however that’s a drop within the bucket. I feel Deacon would have remained loyal to Sheila indefinitely, however she is aware of how a lot her husband hates Luna, and for excellent purpose. Luna killed Deacon’s two greatest associates in chilly blood proper in his restaurant, and Sheila lied and lined for his or her killer. This entire cope with Sheila’s marriage to Deacon falling aside is 110% Sheila’s personal fault.
Deacon’s doing remedy ostensibly to try to save his marriage, however that put him in Taylor’s path, and he noticed issues that the 2 of them had in widespread they usually began bonding. For Deacon, it’s a no brainer selecting between Taylor and Sheila, between dangerous and good, darkish and lightweight. Not that Taylor’s a saint. I’m not saying that. She’s not. However stand her subsequent to Sheila and Taylor seems to be like freaking Mom Teresa. Let’s be actual. It’s not like his therapist was approaching to Deacon. He’s really the one who began this. He was at a susceptible place, and Taylor made him really feel higher about himself and she or he really helped him.
Will Taylor’s Fantasy Develop into a Karmic Actuality for Sheila?
It was Deacon who was making these overtures and saying all these things. Taylor has fought the pull she’s feeling in the direction of Deacon and she or he despatched him again to Sheila and mentioned, “Return to your spouse and reconcile.” However everyone knows this isn’t over. After they had that promo for final week with the scene of Taylor and Deacon gradual dancing at Il Giardino, I knew that wasn’t a real spoiler and it was going to be a fantasy sequence.
I used to be questioning if it was going to be in Deacon’s thoughts, and it turned out to be in Taylor’s (Rebecca Budig) thoughts. So, I used to be pleasantly stunned that it was Taylot who was having that romantic fantasy about Deacon. If Taylor and Deacon do find yourself collectively, which appears seemingly, Sheila would lose her thoughts. However I actually suppose if Taylor instructed her, “Look, take into consideration all of the stuff you’ve taken from me. I missed years with my children if you shot me. I misplaced my husband due to you.”
As a result of Ridge had gone again to Brooke and all this. “And also you tried to kill my daughter, Steffy.” I feel Taylor would possibly really have the ability to discuss Sheila into realizing she ought to stroll away and settle for that she has misplaced Deacon to Taylor as soon as and for all and it’s her personal fault as a result of it’s the sins of her previous coming again for her. So, we’ll see the way it goes.
