Check out the daily summary recap of each episode below.
Monday, February 24, 2025
Finn (Tanner Novlan) and Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) had an emotional conversation about his past and its impact on their present. Steffy reassured him that she wasn’t trying to minimize the situation, acknowledging how deeply it had affected him. She pointed out that Poppy was a manipulative person, a drug addict, and the mother of a murderer. She expressed gratitude to Finn for saving her life and being there for her, emphasizing her love for him. Finn reciprocated her feelings but admitted that there was something else he needed to tell her. He revealed that Poppy had once told him she was pregnant. This revelation left Steffy in shock, and she began to piece together what it meant.
Meanwhile, at Il Giardino, Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) was having pizza when Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) arrived, playfully noting that she didn’t typically visit such places but would make an exception for him. She wasted no time leaning into his guilt and toying with his emotions. How can he live with himself after stealing his best friend’s company?
Over at the bar, Poppy (Romy Park) was drinking alone at the bar, reflecting on Finn’s promise to tell Steffy the truth. Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) approached her, offering more wine and discussing the painful history involving Luna (Lisa Yamada). Sheila reminded Poppy of how Luna had hurt her family, particularly Steffy, and framed her for her crimes. The conversation grew more intense when Sheila declared that she had a deep connection with Finn that no one else could understand, making Poppy visibly uncomfortable.
At Bill’s mansion, Luna had a tense encounter with Remy (Christian Weissman), who recognized her as the girl accused of murder. He was surprised to find her under house arrest rather than in prison and speculated about Bill Spencer’s involvement. Luna dismissed his concerns, joking darkly about keeping her secret.
Back at the cliff house, Finn continued his confession to Steffy. He explained that Poppy had insisted he wasn’t the father, but in reality, she had lied. Steffy was horrified to learn that Finn unknowingly had a child. As the truth unraveled, Finn disclosed the shocking detail – his daughter is Luna! Steffy reacted with disbelief and devastation, screaming in horror at the revelation.

At Bill’s mansion, Remy, aka “Dario,” was surprised to run into Luna while working on the A/C. He immediately questioned whether he should be concerned about her presence. She warned him that Bill (Don Diamont) would not be happy if he knew they were talking. Remy realized that no one, not even Luna’s mother, knew she was there. She admitted that her life felt normal except for her ankle monitor. He struggled to understand why Bill had helped her, but she explained they shared a unique connection. Before leaving, Remy noted that Bill had instructed him to use the service gate, confirming that Bill wanted to keep Luna’s presence a secret.
Meanwhile, at Il Giardino, Sheila and Poppy discussed Luna’s fate. Poppy expressed her devastation over her daughter being imprisoned for life, struggling to comprehend how Luna could commit such terrible crimes. Sheila, relating to her, pointed out that circumstances had separated both of them from their children. She lamented not being able to see Finn and longed for a relationship with her grandson, Hayes. Poppy, in tears, admitted she would never have a place in Luna’s life again. Sheila sympathized, expressing her desperation to be involved in her family’s lives.
At the cliff house, Steffy reeled from the shocking truth about Luna’s parentage. Finn explained that he had believed Poppy when she claimed the baby wasn’t his, but recent paternity tests had confirmed otherwise. Steffy was horrified to realize that the person who had drugged her and tried to kill her was actually Finn’s daughter. She struggled to process the revelation, recalling that first, she had to accept that Sheila was Finn’s birth mother, and now she had to deal with Luna’s existence. Finn pleaded with her not to let this tear their family apart, but Steffy questioned how much more she was expected to endure.
Wednesday, February 26, 2025
Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Taylor (Rebecca Budig) discussed the latest shocking revelation affecting their family. Taylor worried about the long-term trauma Steffy might suffer after Luna tried to kill her. Ridge acknowledged the complicated family dynamics but pointed out that Finn and Luna were not biologically related. Dismissing Luna as Finn’s “crazy cousin,” he anticipated that the label would stick.
Meanwhile, Steffy continued to process the horrifying realization that her husband’s daughter had tried to end her life. She recognized that, despite everything, Finn likely felt some excitement about having a daughter. When he admitted he wished he could have been there for Luna, Steffy grew uneasy, comparing his reaction to how he initially responded to learning Sheila was his mother. Her fears escalated when she connected the dots and realized that Luna was Sheila’s granddaughter, meaning that the same destructive DNA had been passed down to their son, Hayes.
Despite her initial instinct to flee, Steffy eventually calmed down and acknowledged that Finn was not responsible for this mess. She expressed a desire for a simple, happy life. In a moment of reconciliation, they kissed and reassured each other of their love. Steffy took comfort in the fact that, unlike Sheila, Luna was in prison and would never be part of their lives again.
Across town, “Dario” Remy continued to secretly interact with Luna, who was hiding out at Bill’s mansion. Bill returned home, prompting Luna to retreat while Remy subtly hinted at wanting more work. Bill agreed but emphasized that his privacy was non-negotiable. Once Bill left, Luna reappeared, and despite her crimes, Remy offered to be her friend, setting up a potentially dangerous alliance.
At Il Giardino, Sheila confided in Deacon (Sean Kanan) that she felt sympathy for Poppy. Deacon, however, had no such compassion, reminding her that Poppy’s daughter had killed two of his friends. Sheila understood Poppy’s pain but insisted it wasn’t the same—her son, Finn, was an upstanding doctor, whereas Luna was a murderer. As the conversation continued, Sheila admitted how much she missed Finn and his family. Though she insisted she wasn’t obsessed, her increasingly intense tone worried Deacon. He warned that bonding with Poppy over their troubled children would only fuel her fixation. Sheila, however, remained determined, vowing never to give up on finding a way to reconnect with Finn and his family.

Steffy encouraged Finn to do what he needed to do, assuming he was heading to the hospital. After he left, she reflected on his shocking revelation that he was Luna’s father. While sorting laundry, she struggled with how to process the news. Taylor arrived and immediately sensed something was wrong. Steffy revealed that Finn had been taken advantage of as a teenager by an older woman – Poppy. Taylor was stunned, and then Steffy told her the rest of the story.
Meanwhile, Luna stayed at Bill’s house, reading an article about Katie (Heather Tom) and Will (Crew Morrow) before shifting her attention to Tom Starr’s (Clint Howard) death. She examined his photo, searching for any resemblance to herself, but found none. Conflicted, she doubted he was truly her father.
Elsewhere, at the Forrester mansion, Zende, Ridge, and Daphne Rose updated Eric on the success of their fragrance line launch. Eric worried that this would make Carter believe he had made the right decision in taking over the company. Ridge, however, remained convinced that Carter was beginning to realize Hope had manipulated him.
Over in the office, Carter sat behind his desk, lost in thought. Hope arrived, excited about the launch, but noticed his troubled expression. Daphne Rose and Zende joined them, discussing the collaboration’s potential impact. Daphne sensed Carter’s hesitation and later confronted him, encouraging him to open up about his true feelings.
At the prison, Finn demanded to see Luna but was informed she was under house arrest. Frustrated, he soon received a message revealing her location at Bill Spencer’s house. He immediately left to find her. When he arrived, Luna opened the door thinking it was “Dario” but it was her “cousin” instead. Finn, instead of being angry, pulled her into an embrace.
Friday, February 28, 2025
At the Cliff House, Taylor was devastated to hear that Finn’s aunt, Poppy, had a sexual encounter with him, resulting in the birth of his daughter, Luna. Steffy confirmed that Luna was Finn’s child, but Taylor was adamant the paternity test was incorrect, insisting Finn retake it.
At Bill’s place, Luna, clearly distressed by her past actions, pleaded with Finn to believe she hadn’t wanted to cause harm. She expressed deep regret for the pain she had caused, particularly the death of her father, Tom Starr, and all the trauma she caused Steffy. Finn, feeling compassion, embraced her, expressing his sorrow for her troubled past. He didn’t tell her about his secret, though. Not yet.
Meanwhile, in the design room, Hope and Zende discussed the success of Hope For the Future and Daphne Rose’s contributions to Forrester Creations. Zende noticed Carter wasn’t as excited about the progress, leaving Hope to reassure him that things were still on the right track for Forrester’s future.
In the office, Carter was torn over his position at Forrester. Daphne Rose encouraged him to think about returning the company to Ridge and Steffy, suggesting he reflect on what was truly important to him. Carter, still conflicted, appreciated Daphne’s guidance, and she offered to speak to Ridge and Steffy on his behalf. She advised he should offer to hand back the company if they keep his girlfriend’s line.
She didn’t leave Carter much time to second-guess her before getting up close and personal. One thing led to another, which led to a hot and heavy kiss. Unfortunately, Hope peeked into the office at that exact moment and witnessed the liplock. As you can imagine, she was devastated!
