This Friday, June 27, The Bold and the Beautiful dives deep into the fallout of betrayal, manipulation, and unexpected alliances that shift the power dynamic in Los Angeles like never before.

Sheila Carter, the infamous master manipulator, spots trouble brewing beneath the surface long before anyone else does. She has spent a lifetime recognizing the warning signs—deceit masked by smiles, suspiciously timed visits, and ‘accidental’ run-ins. When she discovers that Will Spencer is cozying up to Luna Nozawa under the pretense of rekindling a romance, her instincts flare. Something doesn’t feel right.

Her suspicions are confirmed when she uncovers a receipt for covert surveillance equipment ordered in Will’s name and shipped to a Forrester Creations-connected location. Sheila knows exactly what Will is up to: he’s setting Luna up. As the Forresters toast Ridge and Taylor’s engagement, Sheila, with no emotional stake in Luna’s life, springs into action—not out of love, but strategy. She recognizes a trap, and more importantly, the players pulling the strings.

Sheila has no illusions about the puppet master—Steffy Forrester. Always the gatekeeper, always dictating who’s in and who’s out. Luna, trying desperately to gain approval, is now the scapegoat. And Sheila, for reasons of her own, isn’t about to let that happen.

She breaks into the Forrester surveillance system with practiced ease. Her findings? Damning. She discovers footage of Will entering Luna’s apartment wired, audio snippets intentionally clipped to portray Luna as unstable, and key portions of video conveniently erased. Sheila copies everything.

But then, something else catches her eye—an environmental report, not from Forrester, but Spencer Industries. Dates, numbers, and language all suggest a cover-up. Years ago, Spencer Industries created a supposed renewable energy project that was actually a dumping site for toxic waste. The paperwork had been sanitized, but Sheila could still smell the corruption. Bill Spencer may have buried it—but not well enough.

Sheila takes the file to Bill Spencer directly, in the shadows of Il Giardino. She slides a folder across the table, her trademark sinister smile in place. One look at the contents and Bill’s demeanor changes. “Where did you get this?” he demands. “Doesn’t matter,” Sheila replies. “What matters is what I’ll do with it if you don’t play ball.”

Her demand: pull Will out of the Luna operation, destroy the evidence, and back off. If he doesn’t, she’ll take the report to the EPA and the press. Bill clenches his jaw. Sheila doesn’t blink. “I’m not protecting Luna,” she hisses. “I’m protecting my leverage over Steffy. Your son is interfering.”

Will, meanwhile, is in trouble. His sting operation collapses when Luna discovers the wire. She disappears, and a partial clip of Will confronting her goes viral—painting him as a manipulative predator. Public opinion turns quickly. The Spencer brand takes a hit. Bill, furious, pulls his son from the case.

“You underestimated Sheila,” Bill tells Will. “Now we’re all paying for it.” Will is confused—until Bill shows him the environmental report. “She found this,” Bill says. “We either lose credibility or lose everything.”

Across town, Sheila delivers a cryptic message to Steffy: an image of Luna in tears as Will confronts her. No context, no time stamp. Just a reminder—control is an illusion.

Steffy demands answers, but when Carter Walton reveals the environmental cover-up could implicate Forrester due to shared vendors, everything changes. Ridge orders the investigation into Luna shut down. But it’s too late.

Luna resurfaces with a lawyer and files charges against Will Spencer and the LAPD for entrapment and emotional harm. Sheila watches from the courtroom as Will’s evidence is tossed. The operation collapses. Then Luna takes the story public, not as a criminal, but as a victim.

“I was manipulated,” Luna tells reporters. “Entrapped by someone I trusted. Filmed without consent.” The media frenzy flips public opinion again. Sheila’s plan succeeds: Will is sidelined, Spencer Industries is shaken, and Luna walks away unscathed.

Sheila keeps the Santa Clarita report as future leverage. Bill scrambles to rehabilitate the company’s image, while Ridge tries to take back control. But Brooke reminds him, “You wanted power without consequence. Now you have both.”

Meanwhile, Ridge and Taylor move forward with their engagement. During a quiet dinner at Il Giardino, Taylor proposes. Ridge, overwhelmed by emotion, guilt, and nostalgia, says yes. Unbeknownst to them, Nick Marone overhears and rushes to tell Brooke.

When Brooke hears of the engagement, she’s shattered—but determined. “He’s not going to marry her,” she says, a fierce conviction in her voice.

The wedding is set swiftly—a vineyard in Malibu, intimate and elegant. Everyone gathers, even Hope and Liam, to show unity. One chair remains empty—Brooke’s.

Until she arrives.

Dressed in shimmering gold, Brooke walks down the aisle before the ceremony begins. The guests freeze. “Don’t do this,” she tells Ridge. “You’re making a mistake.”

Taylor intervenes, but Brooke presses on. “We’re soulmates, Ridge. If you marry her out of guilt or obligation, you’ll regret it forever.”

Taylor demands an answer. Ridge admits the truth: “I still love Brooke.” The wedding implodes. Taylor storms out. Ridge tries to apologize, but Taylor won’t hear it. “You lied to me,” she says. “You humiliated me.”

Later, Ridge finds Brooke alone at the vineyard. She doesn’t offer comfort. “I didn’t come to be a prize,” she says. “I came because you deserve the truth.” Ridge is speechless.

And for the first time, Brooke gives him a choice: not between two women, but between becoming the man he should have been or walking away.

As the sun sets on this explosive Friday episode, the Forrester world is in chaos, the Spencer empire bruised, and Sheila Carter—once again—holds the strings of power.

Stay tuned. Friday, June 27, is a day that The Bold and the Beautiful fans will never forget.
