Brooke’s Wake-Up Call: Hope’s Romantic Disaster Unraveled

Brooke Logan, the queen of forever rehashing her love life, was deep in thought at Hope’s cabin. Hope arrived, late as usual, and was immediately interrogated about her latest mess. This time? Daphne locked lips with Carter, and Brooke was clutching her pearls (as if she’s never seen a scandal before).

Hope, ever the delusional optimist, actually thought she could manipulate Carter and get away with it. But newsflash, sweetheart—Carter is waking up, and your grip on him is slipping. Brooke, bless her heart, still hoped to break them up and bring Carter back to reality. The real question is: will Carter finally open his eyes and see Hope for the master manipulator she is?

Ridge and Eric Plot Their Comeback

Meanwhile, at the Forrester mansion, Ridge was on fire—both metaphorically and literally, judging by the rage in his eyes. The company had slipped from his fingers, and he was not about to let it stay that way. He and Eric were gearing up for a takeover, and Steffy was right there with them, fanning the flames.

Bill Spencer, the wildcard in all this, was apparently the one who secured Luna’s freedom. But let’s not pretend it was out of the kindness of his heart. This man always has an angle.

The real showdown, however, was brewing at Forrester Creations. Ridge and Eric had one final move left: an ultimatum that Carter couldn’t ignore. The question was, would he finally choose loyalty over lust?

Daphne Stirs the Pot

Daphne, oh Daphne. If causing chaos was a sport, she’d be an Olympic gold medalist. She waltzed into Carter’s office, reminding him of the glaringly obvious: Hope was using him, and he was better than this.

Steffy, never one to pass up a chance to meddle, grilled Daphne about her feelings for Carter. And surprise, surprise—Daphne hadn’t entirely written him off. But was this about Carter, or was it about sticking it to Hope? Let’s be real, Steffy loves a takedown, and Hope’s name was at the top of her hit list.

Luna Demands the Truth—And It Ain’t Pretty

Luna, freshly released from prison, wasn’t wasting any time. She confronted her mother, Poppy, demanding the truth that had been buried for far too long. Turns out, Poppy had spent years spinning a web of lies, keeping Luna from the father who would have actually protected her—Finn.

Luna was not having it. She was furious, rightfully so, and laid it all out: her life could have been completely different if her mother hadn’t kept her in the dark. The heartbreak, the betrayals, and the shattered relationships? All traced back to Poppy’s endless deception.

The real kicker? Luna finally saw it—when she looked at Finn, she saw her father. And she demanded Poppy stop running and just admit the truth. No more games, no more lies. Just. The. Truth.

Carter’s Redemption Arc (Finally?!)

Back at the Forrester mansion, Steffy and Daphne were betting on Carter doing the right thing. After all, Hope’s grip on him was weakening, and deep down, Carter still had a shred of integrity left.

And guess what? He finally saw the light. In the main office, Ridge and Eric laid it all out: enough of this nonsense, the company was coming back home. Carter, ever the conflicted soul, hesitated for a moment before making a decision that had Ridge and Eric exchanging victorious glances.

Not only did Carter hand over the necessary paperwork—sealing the deal—but he even returned Eric’s stapler. Because nothing says “I’m done” like giving back office supplies.

Stay tuned for the next full episode recap of The Bold and the Beautiful, where the betrayals are bold, and the beauty is ruthless.
