Hayes Finnegan may be young, but in the latest unfolding chaos in Los Angeles, he becomes the unwitting bearer of a chilling message that leaves STEFFY Forrester shaken to her core. After weeks of escalating threats and obsessive behavior, LUNA Nozawa’s vendetta has taken a deeply disturbing turn—one that drags STEFFY’s young son directly into her dangerous games.
At first glance, LUNA’s appearance near the Cliff House seems almost innocent. HAYES, immersed in a summer art program, receives a delicate origami crane from the mysterious woman. But beneath the surface lies a sinister message. LUNA has returned to finish what she started—tearing STEFFY’s life apart piece by piece.
This time, she brings HAYES another gift—this one carrying a far more disturbing meaning. As the young boy proudly presents it to his mother, STEFFY instantly recognizes something isn’t right. TAYLOR Hayes is equally alarmed. Unfolding the intricate paper sculpture, STEFFY discovers a defaced image of herself—the same one LUNA once used for target practice. It’s a chilling symbol of LUNA’s growing instability and a direct threat to her family.
The sight of her own photo—punctured, crumpled, folded into a seemingly harmless creation—sends STEFFY into a tailspin. She realizes this is no coincidence. LUNA has been dangerously close to her son, exploiting his innocence to deliver a message that says loud and clear: ‘I’m still here. And no one is safe.’
Viewers will recall the earlier signs of LUNA’s descent. Her confrontation with WILL Spencer, gun in hand, only revealed the surface of her rage. But now, her obsession has become more targeted. She’s no longer just lashing out—she’s strategically weaponizing those closest to STEFFY.
What’s most unsettling is LUNA’s complete disregard for boundaries. She’s now a fugitive, but fear of capture doesn’t deter her. Instead, it emboldens her. Using HAYES as a vessel for her malice proves how far she’s willing to go. The beach house—once a sanctuary—is now the stage for psychological warfare. 
A haunting moment unfolds when STEFFY, clutching the grotesque paper creation, shares her fears with TAYLOR. They both realize LUNA must have been close—too close. LUNA’s manipulation of HAYES wasn’t just about fear. It was a message: ‘I can reach you whenever I want.’
Imagine HAYES, eager to share what he believes is an art project, unknowingly delivering a weapon of emotional destruction. This act highlights LUNA’s twisted genius and the emotional stakes of the drama.
As the Forresters scramble to protect their family, LUNA’s erratic behavior suggests her next move could be even more dangerous. From stashing weapons to leaving symbolic gifts, LUNA has blurred the lines between obsession and madness. Her war on STEFFY isn’t just personal anymore—it’s psychological, and no one is off-limits.
Meanwhile, CHIEF BAKER and the LAPD grow increasingly desperate to capture LUNA, who continues to evade them with disturbing ease. There’s speculation she may strike again—this time aiming not just to terrorize, but to destroy.
STEFFY’s next steps could define the future of her family. Will she confront LUNA directly? Will she send HAYES away for his safety? Or will the Forresters finally bring LUNA’s reign of terror to an end?
Stay tuned, B&B fans. The battle for peace at the Cliff House has just begun—and the next move may be the deadliest yet.
