Quinn's (Rena Sofer) devious ways have worked their magic on Deacon (Sean Kanan), and now, the two are officially working together to break up Bill (Don Diamont) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) on The Bold and the Beautiful.

Quinn And Deacon Form An Alliance

Deacon and Brooke once had intense chemistry and passion, but he screwed up his relationship with her and their daughter, Hope (Kim Matula) too many times for Brooke to willingly take him back-especially with Quinn's ex, Bill (and the father of her son, Wyatt [Darin Brooks]) in her life. In an effort to keep Deacon from turning her in for potentially murdering Ricardo Montemayor, Quinn posed a scheme to help Deacon win Brooke over for good-but she will assure him that no one will be able to trace their schemes back to them.

"We are going to have help breaking up Bill and Brooke," Quinn tells him in a preview clip for the Tuesday, August 19 episode. "Someone else is going to do the heavy lifting."

Brooke And Deacon Share A Moment

Most likely, the person Quinn has in mind to do this heavy lifting will once again be Brooke's other ex, Ridge (Thorsten Kaye)-who has had no qualms about inserting himself into her relationship with Bill and preventing it from moving forward-despite being engaged to her sister, Katie (Heather Tom).

However, since the last time Quinn used him to carry out her plot, things have not been easy for Ridge. Though he was able to prove that Bill caused his helicopter accident in Abu Dhabi, it has not helped him with getting his talents back as a designer-and his frustrations are starting to be noticed by the other staff members at Forrester Creations.

"He hasn't been himself since coming back from Abu Dhabi," Pam (Alley Mills) says to Aly (Ashlyn Pearce) in the clip.

The Bold and the Beautiful airs Monday-Friday at 1:30 p.m. on CBS.
