The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) recap for Thursday, July 17, indicates that Liam Spencer’s (Scott Clifton) homecoming stunned Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood). Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) also revealed his son’s secret treatment, so here’s how Thursday’s exciting B&B episode went down.

At the private surgical center, Grace Buckingham (Cassandra Creech) said she was sending Liam off for an MRI and assured Bill that he could go home after that.
Bill was shocked since Liam just had major surgery, but Grace insisted they’d put him in an ambulance, give him a nurse and set him up with everything he needed at Bill’s place.
At the hospital, John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) and Bridget Forrester (Ashley Jones) voiced more concerns about Liam being released so soon.
Bridget had to believe a good doctor like Grace was acting in Liam’s best interests when she approved that.
Finn called Steffy, who put it on speakerphone so that Hope could get updates on Liam, too.
Both Hope and Steffy were stunned to learn that Liam had been released into Bill’s care.
Finn admitted that Dr. Buckingham approved it, but Steffy and Hope were still perplexed and worried.
Back with Bridget, she called to ask about Grace’s whereabouts and learned she wasn’t even in the building.
Hope and Steffy also arrived the hospital hoping to make sense of all this.
At the surgical center again, Bill assured Grace that $1 million transfer was done, so she was pleased.
Grace answered a phone call and told the person on the other end not to worry since it was happening now.
After Grace insisted she couldn’t talk and disconnected, Liam returned from his MRI and groggily took Bill’s hand.
Grace pointed out that the results would be in later and would hopefully confirm the full tumor removal, but he could go ahead and take Liam home.
Once Bill expressed how grateful he was, he eventually got Liam settled in a room at his mansion.
A nurse was also there, so Bill asked her about the MRI results and learned she’d share them once they were sent over.
Bill finally called Steffy, who put him on speakerphone so that Finn, Bridget and Hope could hear the latest Liam news as well.
Once Bill revealed that Liam had an experimental procedure performed by Dr. Buckingham and her colleague, Finn and the others were shocked – especially since Liam had already been sent home.

Bill pointed out that this gave Liam a chance to live before hanging up. Hope and Steffy realized Beth Spencer (Jordyn Grace) and Kelly Spencer (Sophia Paras) might not lose their dad after all, so they were hopeful.
After Bill turned his attention back to Liam, he declared that this had to work and that Liam was going to be cured.
At Il Giardino, Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) doted on Sheila Sharpe (Kimberlin Brown) and felt she was a hero like Liam. Almost losing Sheila rattled Deacon, but she offered reassurance.
