The search is on for Sheila Carter on Bold and the Beautiful

The week of Apr. 22, The Bold and the Beautiful will begin its search for Sheila Carter with Deacon Sharpe and her son, Finn, leading the charge. When Deacon began to think his love was still alive, no one believed him. They thought that he saw ten toes when she was being cremated because he was grieving, however, in Friday, Apr. 19's episode, he got confirmation that he wasn't way off base.

The moment came when Lauren Fenmore, who at first wouldn't hear a word about Sheila still being alive, learned that Sugar had been in communication with the infamous woman. She knows better than anyone the lengths that Sheila has gone to in order to stay out of jail or a mental institution. Lauren filled Deacon in on Sugar's history. Long story short, she's a woman who Sheila tricked into getting plastic surgery so that she'd look just like her. Sugar was Sheila's literal get out of jail free card.

Armed with this knowledge, Deacon now knows that he's not losing his mind. His love is alive and now it's up to him to find her. That's exactly what he'll be doing and Finn will be along for the ride once he's been brought up to speed. How everyone else is going to react is still unknown but we can likely expect some major disappointment and anger, particularly from Steffy Forrester.

She thought she was responsible for Sheila's death and had been coming to terms with the action she took in self-defense. Now she'll have to deal with learning she'd actually killed a completely different person and the woman she hates (and fears) is still alive. I wouldn't be surprised if accusations start flying around that Sheila planned this and it's just another one of her schemes. However, we might be in for a change of pace.

Perhaps, for once, Sheila's actually innocent and is the victim this go around. I'm sure that's certainly what Deacon's hoping for since it'd be hurtful to find out that the woman he loves faked her death and was going to let him grieve her loss. Answers will come in due time, but we do know that someone has been tapped to help with the search. Clinton Howard will guest star as a homeless man named Tim next week; his episodes are expected to air on Friday, Apr. 26 and Monday, Apr. 29.

Deacon and Finn will meet Tim in an alleyway. The former is of the mind that Tim may know something about Sheila's whereabouts as it seems the man recognizes her from a picture he's shown. There's no telling where the story might twist as the two men Sheila loves most are looking for her. She could be being held somewhere, maybe she has amnesia, or perhaps she plotted all of this after all. What I can say is this is going to be an exciting turn of events for The Bold and the Beautiful fans, and I can't wait to see what happens next!
