“The Bold and the Beautiful” knows how to stir the pot. This wednesday though, the pot boils over with a renewed romance and a power play that could reshape Forrester Creations. Brooke Logan, ever the decisive leader, gives the green light to a new fragrance line pitched by newcomer Daphne Rose. But what Brooke doesn’t know is that Steffy Forrester Finnegan is the puppeteer behind Daphne’s arrival. Steffy’s endgame? To wrest control of Forrester Creations back from its current trajectory.
Daphne’s mission isn’t just about perfume; she’s also tasked with driving a wedge between Carter Walton and Hope Logan. Whether Carter is susceptible to Daphne’s supposed charms, and whether he’s willing to stray from his current path, remains the linchpin of Steffy’s scheme. Meanwhile, in the land of complicated romantic entanglements, Ridge Forrester and Taylor Hayes share a passionate kiss. Could this signal a revival of their relationship? If history’s any guide, Brooke’s declaration of being “done with Ridge” may face a severe test.
Adding fuel to the fire, Daphne managed to outmaneuver another perfume contender, Fanny Greyson, securing her spot at Forrester Creations. Both Carter and Hope, it must be noted, were sufficiently impressed by Daphne’s pitch, blissfully unaware of the ulterior motives in play. As Ridge and Taylor rekindle their connection, questions arise about the future of their respective relationships, and the fallout for those caught in the crossfire. Tune in to CBS at 1:30 PM on Wednesday, January 8, 2025, to see how these storylines unfold.
