Surely, they’ll understand that she wasn’t in her right mind. With Mariah back in Genoa City, Tessa finds herself torn between the promises she made to her wife and the vows she made to her new lover, Daniel.

The Bold & the Beautiful

Last Week...

Not sure when Bill took over as workflow manager for Logan, but Katie’s better half nonetheless pushes Eric to hustle up and get his designs finished.

Eric’s health goes downhill, and Ridge demands answers. Eric begins to have difficulty breathing. And this, Bill, is why you don’t rush genius! Understandably worried about her honey bear, Donna does her best to convince Eric to get checked out at the hospital. Or at least call one of the doctors in the family. Finn… Bridget… in-law Li… anyone!

Katie drops a bomb on Brooke and Ridge, and Liam comes clean with Hope. What fun is a secret if it can’t be told, right? Liam must decide that the answer is “not much,” so he blabs to Hope that Eric is Katie’s lead designer. Elsewhere on the canvas…Ahh, yes. Same topic. Bill and Katie disclose to Brooke and Ridge that the Forrester patriarch is Logan’s no-longer-secret weapon.

Eric and Ridge clash in an epic confrontation that has devastating repercussions.

Brooke rips into Katie, and Electra doubles down on her ultimatum. Will and Electra deal with their relationship woes separately. After a scary incident, Eric tells all to Ridge and Brooke.

Coming Up...

There’s a new devil in the City of Angels — and her name is Ivy!

Wondering what exactly turned Electra’s aunt into a mean and judgmental Mary Poppins, but it would appear that she takes her meddling to a whole other level in the days ahead. In fact, Daphne catches her sneaking something into a purse and makes the mistake of confronting the Aussie about it.

Ivy’s response? “Gee, you’re right. I’ve gone too far.” Ha — if only. No, she doubles down on whatever she’s up to and warns Daphne not to tell anyone about what she’s seen.

Later, Ivy appears to play malevolent matchmaker, spying on Electra as she lets R.J. stroke her ego. “There is something wrong with that guy,” he says of Will, “if he’s not willing to do anything he can to hold onto you.”

Sure, R.J., because kicking an unhoused friend out on the street would be such an attractive thing for Will to do. Pfft!

Anyway, Will happens upon the scene just in time to find R.J. kissing Electra — which, it bears mentioning, is a helluva lot more than the nothing that transpired between Will and Dylan!

And in the continuing Eric saga, Katie defends her hiring of the Forrester patriarch after he was shown the door by his own family. “We gave him purpose,” she argues to Brooke and Ridge. But of course, Logan’s owner might as well be talking to the wall, because “Bridge” ain’t hearing a word she’s said.

As a matter of fact, Ridge goes so far as to say that Katie gave him nothing. Guess we can’t be surprised. He has always been the type to think that only what he thinks is right, no matter how much evidence there is to the contrary.
