Bold and the Beautiful: Dylan’s Clever Money Hunt – Is a Baby on the Horizon?

Bold and the Beautiful is pivoting Miss Dylan’s (Sydney Bullock) character away from everything we’ve seen and know about her. She’s always been a hardworking, nice girl, but now Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) is accusing Dylan of latching on to Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) for personal gain.

Electra is saying that Dylan has been targeting all of them from the start and that is a drastic character shift. We’re going to get into this gold digger arc that they’re writing for Dylan and talk about how far they’re going to go with it. Are we going to get a pregnancy plot because that’s the best way to latch on to a rich guy.

Bold and the Beautiful: Electra Flips on Dylan

So, Electra lost it when Dylan told her she spent the night at Will’s house even though they didn’t do the deed. And on top of that, Dylan told Electra that she’s in love with Will and has been for a while. And Dylan reminded Electra that she did respect their relationship, but now Electra dumped Will and said that they would never be together. So, Dylan doesn’t think it’s fair that Electra is giving her an ultimatum that she can’t pursue Will.

Basically, Dylan’s sick and tired of Electra telling her what she can and can’t do. And then Electra accused Dylan of trying to get close to a wealthy family in LA. Electra thinks that Dylan wants the life that Electra, Will, and R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) all grew up with and that they are somehow entitled to, but no one else is.

Electra thinks Dylan’s a Gold-Digger on B&B

Electra made it clear she thinks Dylan’s a gold-digger. Now, Electra didn’t use that word, but it was very clear what she meant this week when Electra was over at Will’s playing the victim, pouting, carrying on. Electra said Dylan is a shark that keeps coming between them. And Electra spouted more crazy about Will letting his mom Katie Logan (Heather Tom) sabotage her jewelry launch. She really believes that. And Electra also seemed to be throwing Dylan under the bus. I think she’s trying to make sure that Will doesn’t get with Dylan again.

Meanwhile, R.J. kind of got talked into it. Dylan convinced him that Electra and Will are not a good match. She said that R.J. is a much better match for Electra. And of course, he liked hearing that and Dylan said she’s a better match for Will. So R.J.’s on board. Also, Dylan is preparing for the inevitable of Electra firing her from Forrester Creations. And if Dylan loses her main paycheck, that’s one more reason for Electra to say Dylan’s a gold-digger, you know, and that she’s looking for Will to pay her way, pay her rent, whatever.

Bold and Beautiful: Dylan’s Character Pivot and Potential Pregnancy Plot

This week also, Katie has an intense run-in with Dylan. It’s at Will’s beach house. It doesn’t go well. Katie looks annoyed to find Dylan there. And I’m guessing because Katie knows Will wants Electra, she isn’t going to want Dylan interfering.

Katie may not like something Dylan says or Katie may decide that Dylan is taking advantage of Will, you know, because he’s heartbroken and vulnerable because other spoilers for this week say Katie is suspicious of Dylan’s past. I’m not sure what’s to judge there. She’s broke but hardworking.

Maybe Katie’s upset because Dylan came between Will and Electra before. And you know, maybe in Katie’s mind, she might be seeing Dylan as somebody like Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang), you know, because she came between Katie and Bill many times.

B&B Switches Gears with Dylan

No matter what, looks like the writers are turning Dylan into somebody who’s making some kind of greedy grab. And as far as I can see, Dylan truly does seem to love Will, but they’re going to make more of it. And to be fair, Dylan may want financial security so she never ends up homeless again. That is understandable.

But if they’re going in this direction, I hope they just go ahead and go big with it. Have Dylan targeting Will in a really sneaky way. You know, it is a drastic pivot for her character, but in a way, it’s also a throwback. If you’re a longtime Bold watcher, you might remember that Brooke was a lot like Dylan in the very first season of Bold and the Beautiful.

You know, Dylan is more poor, but Brooke was, you know, middle class. She was engaged to a nice police officer and then she did a catering job with her mom at the Forresters and she saw Ridge and their luxurious life and dumped that cute cop. Remember also when Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) came onto the scene?

She was a sweet girl, a good girl, and then Bold did a complete 180 and turned her into a psychotic, murdering villain. So, it is absolutely plausible that Bold is turning Dylan from a sweet, hardworking girl into a scheming gold digger. And if that’s the case, how far will Dylan go to keep Will?

Bold and Beautiful: Dylan Wants to Keep Will

Now, I do think Dylan loves Will, but Electra saying Dylan’s obsessed with Will might be foreshadowing. If Dylan is being turned into a bad girl, you know, maybe she thinks she’s in love with Will, but Dylan’s really in love with his lifestyle, his beach house, and what Will can give her. You know, if they’re going there, I hope they just go all in like they did with Luna.

Although, I’m not looking forward to Electra being right or having more reason to whine and pout and play the victim. But if Dylan’s going to be gold digging, one thing to think about is having a baby of her own. That’s a solid plan because Dylan might worry that Electra is going to circle back to Will after the Forresters chill out on hating Will so much.

And Dylan also knows that even though Will hated Luna he was still very interested in the baby that she was carrying. So, Dylan may think that a baby is a good way to solidify things. We know that she wants to get intimate with Will and Dylan went over there last Friday fully intending to pursue him.

And Will admits he feels chemistry between them, but instead they kissed and cuddled. But very soon it’s going to be a lot more than that. B&B spoilers for August confirm that Dylan and Will have a steamy night together.

Bold and the Beautiful: Will & Dylan Heat Up

And that means Dylan gets into Will’s bed, they do the deed, and Dylan might be intentionally careless with birth control. I mean, honestly, they rarely mention birth control on soaps. It’s not romantic. So, Will might not be thinking about that at all, although he should. And we know that Will’s fertile. So, Dylan may be hoping to get pregnant with a Spencer baby.

It didn’t work out for Luna but then again, she was bat-crap crazy and Dylan is not. Not that we’ve seen. And whether she’s gold digging or not, I could see her wanting to have Will’s baby to get closer to him because Dylan’s in love with him and she wants to be with him forever. So, a Spencer baby might make sense to her.

And Will gets advice from his dad, Bill Spencer (Don Diamont), this week that he needs to move on from Electra. And he’s hearing the same thing from his brother, Wyatt Spencer (Darin Brooks), who already met Dylan, and he thought she was cute. So, Will’s getting some family pressure. And with Dylan being so supportive, you know, why not?

Bold and the Beautiful: Dylan Decides to Run with It

And it looks like after their night of passion, Will and Dylan may begin a legitimate relationship. If she and Will are sleeping together regularly, shouldn’t be too hard for Dylan to get pregnant. Of course, Katie and Electra will think it was Dylan’s plan all along. And the way they’re pivoting her character, maybe it is.

Katie might remind Will that Dylan is acting like Luna, who got herself pregnant with Will’s baby to hold on to him and to worm her way into the Spencer family, but I don’t think that he will agree. Dylan is nothing like that woman. She hooked up with Will without his consent, and Dylan’s not going that route. So, we’ll see what happens. But Electra telling Dylan she thinks she’s going after somebody wealthy to benefit herself might have Dylan stopping and thinking, you know what, that’s not a bad idea.

Why should I work two jobs and bust my butt, barely getting by, you know, living in my car now and then when I can just land a handsome, rich guy that I already love? It would be a win-win for Dylan, but I bet Katie and Electra will definitely call it being a gold-digger.
