Bold and the Beautiful: RJ & Ridge Launch Ruthless Payback Strike Against LOGAN

The Bold and the Beautiful has R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) developing big plans to share with Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye). And you know, Eric and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) are going to want in on this because it involves revenge.

It’s all about using Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) for an epic revenge plot against Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Katie Logan (Heather Tom) and Bill Spencer (Don Diamont). We’re going to talk about how R.J.’s new idea could be the perfect way for the Foresters to get revenge on Hope for betraying them and ditching them to work with Katie without a backwards glance.

Bold and the Beautiful: RJ Surprises Electra

All right, so I had a feeling that R.J. was going to pitch the idea to Electra for her to replace Hope with a new youth line, and that’s exactly what he did. R.J. and Electra were in the design office this week and R.J. had Electra try on this brand new design he just got stitched up from the sewing room.

And I will say it was an absolutely stunning gown. A lot prettier than the stuff I saw on the Forrester runway that Eric designed for Couture if I’m being honest. And Electra said the dress feels like her. And that’s when R.J. admitted that he specifically designed it with Electra in mind. Clearly R.J.’s head over heels for Electra.

Then R.J. started to talk to Electra about the possibility of her becoming the new Hope Logan. R.J. said he thinks the next youth line to replace Hope for the Future should be Electra’s. And R.J. suggested that Electra can be the face of the line, basically the same way when Hope was when she was that age when it first started. R.J. said that he and Zende can design the clothes.

Electra was excited. But she said her head was spinning. She thanked R.J. for believing in her. And then he even called R.J. in Monaco and said he had an idea about the youth line. But unfortunately R.J. didn’t share any details. I personally hate phone calls like that. You know, we need to talk and then they just leave you waiting. But this thing is going to be worth the wait.

Forresters on Board on B&B

In the meantime, Ridge, Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang), and Steffy are intrigued, but they won’t get the official pitch until they’re back in LA. But R.J. I don’t think’s going to have any problem getting them on board. First, because it’ll make everybody forget about Hope and about Logan and her line there.

And second, because Forrester is a bit desperate. When Hope left, it messed up their production schedule and they desperately need a new line ASAP. And third, because this could give Ridge and Eric and all the Forresters the chance for some sweet revenge. And I don’t think it’ll take much for the Forresters to embrace replacing Hope with an actual Forrester.

This new line is going to be a go. I’m quite certain. I think we’re going to see R.J., Electra, and Zende working together just like it used to be Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson), Hope, and Zende Forrester (Delon deMetz). Honestly, it’s not a bad idea because Electra is gorgeous. And she’s, I think, more than a decade younger than Hope, who’s a bit older than a youth line representative maybe should be.

The Bold and Beautiful: Strategic Revenge and Fashion War

And Ridge and Steffy could amp up in all the press releases announcing it’s a real Forrester youth line, not a Logan line. And that would be a huge slap at Hope letting them know that she’s not needed, she’s been replaced, and that they don’t miss her. Plus, imagine if Eric suggests they also use some of the designs that were intended for Hope for the Future.

That might really hit Hope hard because she was the muse for those and it might bother her. But Eric may feel like his design shouldn’t have been used by Katie and Bill. The difference is Katie and Bill paid for those designs. And if Ridge is hesitant at all, I think R.J. could sell it to the Foresters as look, let’s do this. It’ll hit at Hope and it’ll be a huge swipe at Katie and Bill.

RJ Steps Up for Electra

R.J. wants to boost Electra and he also wants revenge on Will Spencer (Crew Morrow), Katie, and Bill, the whole family. Everybody at Forrester Creations does. Eric has lost his whole mind. He’s still lying to all the Foresters, even when Katie begged him to come clean. And I think Eric is angry at himself and he feels shame for his actions. But instead of coming clean, he’s lashing out. So, I bet he will love this Electra idea. And soon, I think we’re going to see R.J. run this by Zende.

Because he is on episodes this week and he’ll probably be on board and that way he and R.J. can pull out Zendaya’s designs and do some tinkering with Electra in mind instead of Hope as the muse. R.J. and Zende could have a whole presentation ready by the time Steffy, Brooke, and Ridge are back from Monaco. And I think they’ll absolutely love this idea and that they will be all for Electra as the new face of Forrester’s youth line. And it’s a good thing for a lot of reasons. It’ll distract from Hope’s new collection that came out.

Bold and the Beautiful: Forresters Furious & Fuming

Ridge and Steffy are still steamed that they’re getting grilled over in Monaco about Hope for the Future and Logan at all their meetings this week. So, I could even see Eric suggest they time the launch to come right before Logan’s next launch and kind of pull the same sneaky move on them that Katie pulled that messed up Eric’s couture launch.

I think a cool name for an Electra youth line could be Electra Forever versus, you know, Hope for the Future because that would imply that one’s temporary or iffy or may happen while one is an eternal classic just like the Forresters think their company versus Logan is. And this could be just the payback that Ridge, Eric, and Steffy want so badly on Bold and the Beautiful.

Plus, Electra really needs something to focus on so she’s not dwelling on her breakup with Will. What I’m really interested to know is if Melissa Dylan (Sydney Bullock) will give Will a heads up about the new youth line. Right now, Katie doesn’t like Dylan very much and she’s made that clear. But if Dylan leaked the Forrester plans so that Logan could be prepared, that might actually have Katie realizing that Dylan is loyal to Will, unlike Electra.

This could be a really fun twist that’ll keep the focus on fashion, which I think is awesome. I think it’d be exciting to see a brand new line run by Electra, R.J., and Zende. It’s just what Forrester needs to put the spotlight back on them and take it off Logan. And of course, Eric would love to huff and puff and blow down the House of Logan, even though he’s the one who went begging Katie for that job.

Hope Crushed on Bold and the Beautiful

But of course, when Hope gets wind of this, I think it’s still going to sting. You know, she was treated poorly at Forrester, particularly by Steffy. And I think that Hope was right to leave and to go work with Katie at Logan. But let’s be real, Hope went about it the absolute wrong way. She lied about a leave of absence when she should have just quit.

And then working secretly at Logan behind all their backs. That was sketchy. So, replacing Hope with Electra will definitely be a whole new battle in what looks to be an ongoing fashion war, and I couldn’t be more excited about it. Things with Forrester Creations and the House of Logan are just amping up.

I’m excited to see how Katie handles this new twist because I fully expect Ridge and Eric to hit them hard and say some harsh things when they launch this new line. You know, Ridge might announce the debut of Electra’s youth line in a really snarky way.

They might sling a lot of mud at Hope and Katie and talk about how Forrester achieves great things without stealing from other companies. You know, stuff like that to tick off Bill, tick off Katie, really tick off Hope, and I am pretty excited about it. I’m not the biggest fan of R.J. But if he does this right, he may grow on me.
