This week on The Bold and the Beautiful, Hope asked Zende to give this “exciting, new era of Forrester Creations a chance.” Knowing Brooke’s secret plan, Zende didn’t think the new era would last long. Brooke tried to tell Ridge that her taking his job as CEO was for his benefit, but he didn’t want to hear her defend Hope and Carter’s takeover. Taylor came walking out to the staircase, looking for Ridge. They had been kissing in his bedroom, and he had accidentally spilled a drink on her, so she’d gotten changed. Brooke saw Taylor and assumed they had already slept together. Ridge didn’t say anything, so Brooke left. Brooke told Katie about her secret plan to get Carter to hand over Forrester and said she wasn’t going to give up on Ridge. Bridget came home for Christmas, and the Logans celebrated separately at Brooke’s. Brooke sent a text message to Ridge wishing him a Merry Christmas but didn’t hear back from him. At the Forrester mansion, Ridge, Taylor, Steffy, Finn, Zende, Pam, Eric, and Donna celebrated Christmas together. Ridge received Brooke’s text and seemed pensive. The next day, he told Steffy that Taylor was someone he always turned to when his life with Brooke blew up, and he knew that he was loved and cared for by Taylor. But he also didn’t want to break her heart. Steffy was worried that he would do exactly that. Hope asked her mom to really think about her history with Ridge and if she truly believed they were destined to be together. Hope thought he just always hurt her by going back to Taylor. Brooke believed they hurt one another but that they were meant to be. Will tried to get answers from his mom as to why she fired Electra, but Katie couldn’t tell him. Ivy took Electra for lunch at Il Giardino. Remy promised Electra that he would always be there for her. While Remy was in the back cleaning the grill, Deacon gave Electra a pep talk. She needed to freshen up but the bathroom was under maintenance, so he gave her Remy’s key to use his apartment instead. Inside, Electra discovered the AI-generated photos on Remy’s wall. Remy came home, and he discovered her there. He explained that he made and sent the photos to Katie because he couldn’t handle Electra with Will. He tried to get Electra to forgive him but she made a run for it. Remy slammed the door on her before she could escape. Bill visited Luna at the prison and found her beaten. She begged him to help her get out.
