Will (Crew Morrow) confided in Wyatt (Darin Brooks) about the complications in his love life, particularly his growing feelings for Dylan (Sydney Bullock) and the problems those feelings had created with his family. Katie (Heather Tom) had made her disapproval of Dylan clear, but Will wasn’t interested in letting his mother dictate his romantic decisions. Meanwhile, Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) was stunned by surprising news from Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor). His involvement in Steffy’s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) pregnancy secret had created an increasingly complicated situation, especially with Finn (Tanner Novlan) unaware that Carter was the baby’s father. Daphne had plenty to process as Carter’s revelation raised new questions about their future.

Carter’s connection to Steffy’s pregnancy and the proposed surrogacy arrangement had put Daphne in an uncomfortable position, especially considering how much trust a relationship requires. She wanted answers about why Carter hadn’t included her in the conversation sooner. Meanwhile, Electra (Laneya Grace) was eager to prove herself at Forrester Creations. With a new fashion line taking shape and the company’s leadership showing interest in her work, Electra was determined to demonstrate that she deserved the opportunity. However, her growing professional ambitions came as Zende (Delon de Metz) continued feeling overlooked.

Will drew a hard line with Katie over her continued interference in his relationship with Dylan. Although Katie believed she was protecting her son, Will made it clear that he intended to make his own decisions about the woman he wanted in his life. Their disagreement exposed the growing tension between Katie’s maternal instincts and Will’s desire for independence. Meanwhile, R.J. (Brayan Nicoletti) and Electra assured Zende that he was an integral part of their design team. Zende had been frustrated by the attention and opportunities going to the younger designers, and their reassurance was meant to remind him that his experience and talent still mattered at Forrester Creations.

Meanwhile, Eric (John McCook) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) prepared to throw their full support behind Electra’s new fashion line. Their enthusiasm represented a major professional opportunity for Electra, but it also highlighted the imbalance Zende had been feeling as other designers received the attention and backing he’d hoped to earn.
