The Bold & the Beautiful

Last Week...

Katie dangles an offer to Deke, Deacon presents Bill with an opportunity, and Ridge rants about Bill. Given the chop at Forrester Creations, Deke is put to work at Il Giardino by his ad Deacon. Bill takes Katie on a real date.

Katie and Deke set a meeting, Deacon urges Taylor to confess her feelings, and Daphne drops a bomb. On his first day waiting tables, Deke and Katie realize that they are kindred spirits. Daphne makes a revelation, one that we suspect will lead to the big twist Bradley Bell just divulged. Taylor worries when Sheila shows up unannounced.

Steffy confronts Taylor after overhearing her conversation with Deacon, Sheila turns to Li, and Carter begs Daphne to stay. Off Sheila’s “meeting” with Taylor, the psycho summons Li. Carter and Ridge are blindsided by Steffy’s news.

Deacon confesses his feelings to Deke, and Steffy panics over her mother falling for Sheila’s husband. Daphne attempts to let Carter down with caution when he proposes. Deacon makes an admission to Deke — Steffy reads her mom the riot act over what she witnessed.

Carter proposes, Sheila confronts Deke, and Steffy wants Hope to keep Deacon away from Taylor. Wicked stepmother Sheila confronts Deke after eavesdropping on his revealing conversation with his father. Daphne and Carter talk through their topsy-turvy relationship. A possibility of a kiss lingers. Brooke really is going to blow up Katie’s bliss… and it’s all started in motion by Ridge!

Coming Up...

Get ready for Ridge’s head to explode! Eric takes what is poised to be a game-changing meeting with Katie. And though she is quick to insist, “I don’t want to pit you against your son,” it sure seems like that’s exactly what’s going to happen.

In fact, no matter the family friction it would cause if Eric jumped ship and took his designs to upstart Logan, “This is what I want,” the Forrester patriarch assures his sister-in-law. Talk about poetic justice, huh? Eric was pushed out of the company that bears his name and will soon be sharing his talent with the fashion house that Brooke doesn’t want bearing her name!

In other developments, it looks as if Daphne is going to accept Carter’s proposal of marriage — and maybe get to work having that child that they both want — as they make love.

After vanishing from the canvas during Carter and Hope’s Forrester coup and most of Luna-gate, R.J. returns to Los Angeles with a new face. Needless to say, his folks, Ridge and Brooke, are delighted to see him. Wonder if they will try to tap into his design “genius” to compete with Logan? Or could the novice only sketch fantabulous dresses when he was working in tandem with grandpa Eric?

Finally, Electra has got to be regretting her friendship with Dylan at this point. She’s already (rightly) sensed that the unhoused co-ed is crushing on Will, and now Steffy is getting involved, promising to help the young woman in any way she possibly can.

Though Deke was recently canned because Thomas had come back to Forrester, there is apparently going to be room for Dylan there. She is thrilled by the prospect of working alongside Electra and Will at Forrester… but Electra? Eh, less so. A little of Dylan goes a long way, and Electra has had a lot of her gal pal.




The Young & the Restless

Last Week...

Matt attacks Nick, and Noah and Sienna reunite. Can you imagine getting a call from the great and powerful Victor Newman? We’re shaking in our shoes just thinking about it — and somebody’s not just getting a message from him but an ominous message! Noah could do worse than to listen closely to Sharon when she tries to counsel him through his fears for Sienna. After being toyed with for so long by Matt, Nick at last finds himself in the driver’s seat.

Nick needs surgery, Matt escapes, and Tessa runs into an old friend. Nick’s plan for Matt takes a turn for the dangerous, and his parents receive unsettling news. Daniel and Tessa grow closer and closer, but his mom, Phylli, wants to not only know everything but of course comment on it!

Lily drops a bomb on Cane, Jack wants Cane’s help, and Nikki and Michael plot. Lily's not only giving Cane hope, but she’s also sending mixed signals. Nikki and Michael conspire to help Jackand and Diane gegetesty of her husband’s loyalty to his former wife. Jack’s shocking offer to Victor may end their feud or make things far worse… and it involves Matt Clark!

Jack offers Victor Matt Clark, Phyllis badgers Cane, and sparks flicker between Audra and Holden. Kyle makes himself useful by helping his dad gain leverage against Victor. They’ve been frenemies, collaborators, lovers… and now Cane and Phyllis are switching gears again. Audra and Holden wipe the slate clean and agree to a fresh start.

Cane drops a bomb on Phyllis, Jack offers Matt for the AI, and Claire questions Audra and Holden. Lily wants Cane to be a do-gooder, but Phyllis is whispering in his ear, encouraging him to tap into his dark side. Nobody said taking on Matt was gonna be easy. It’s another setback for Nick to end the week. Jack makes Victor a shocking offer.

Coming Up...

Matt Clark’s is the name that’s on everyone’s lips. But even as Genoa City scrambles to eradicate the threat that he poses, Victor finds time to backstab Jack, and Cane and Phyllis do their damnedest to do the same to The Mustache.

Monday, January 12:

Even though Jack delivered Matt Clark on a silver platter, Victor nonetheless double-crosses his longtime nemesis. Dude, there’s feuding, and then there’s just being a jerk, and this is definitely the latter.

At the same time, Nikki confronts an enemy… but which one? She’s accumulated a few over the years, after all!

As they set out to take down the great and powerful Victor, Cane surprises Phyllis.

Cane and Phyllis trigger a massive twist… and [Spoiler] may get the last laugh!

Tuesday, January 13:

Perhaps unaware of the danger his zillions are in, Victor backs Cane into a corner.

At Newman, Victoria and Adam are tasked with doing damage control. But is it too little, too late?

Wednesday, January 14:

Nikki and Victor fight about family business, but why? She knows he always thinks he’s right, no matter how wrong he is.

Once again, Nick takes matters in his own hands. Should we remind him that it didn’t work out so hot last time?

Torn between her love for Daniel and her loyalty to Mariah, Tessa’s in quite a pickle. Can Sharon help her make a final decision about her challenging circumstances?

Thursday, January 15:

Since Billy rarely comes clean of his own volition, Sally is left to force him to do so.

Phyllis has never had any problem justifying her actions, so we don’t imagine she’ll trip up in the slightest when she’s called upon to defend her latest shenanigans.

Nick keeps a secret from Sharon.

Friday, January 16:

Desperate to end the Matt Clark situation once and for all, Nick turns to former stepfather Jack for help.

Speaking of the Big Bad, Noah makes a shocking discovery about his girlfriend’s psychotic husband.

Barking up the wrong tree, Diane gives it the ol’ college try by pumping Michael for Intel about Victor.

But what does this have to do with what surprises Michael? Nathan and Molly compare notes.
