- He then demanded that his father fire Will.
- R.J. could be developing an obsession with Electra, especially as she faces an important decision.
R.J. Calls the Shots At Forrester Creations
R.J. (Brayan Nicoletti) and Will (Crew Morrow) have traded barbs and come close to exchanging punches. It’s safe to say the tension is thick at Forrester Creations. R.J. believes that Will is a cardboard cutout of his dad, Bill (Don Diamont).
Ever since he met Electra (Laneya Grace), he’s been fixated on her. All the beautiful women he met during his travels no longer mean anything. R.J. is convinced that he’s better suited for Electra, even though she has a history with Will.
On Wednesday’s episode, R.J. got confident. He ordered Will not to communicate with Electra. Later, the golden boy spoke to Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) about Electra’s attractive qualities.
Ridge reminded R.J. to leave his personal stuff at the door. This is a workplace. But R.J. didn’t respect his father’s wishes. Rather, he went off about Will and claimed that his father should fire him.
Does R.J. Have a Secret Dark Side?
R.J.’s crush on Electra is similar to Thomas’ (Matthew Atkinson) obsession with Hope (Annika Noelle). He tried to break up Hope and Liam (Scott Clifton) several times—and failed each time.
Will and Electra have been likened to a younger version of Hope and Liam. They’ve already been in their share of love triangles, trials, and turbulations. R.J. could be the Thomas factor in their relationship, trying to tear them apart because he’s convinced he’s the man for her.
This week, Electra will learn the truth about her relationship with Will. Her aunt Ivy (Ashleigh Brewer) stole her heartfelt letter to Will, leading her niece to believe Will had dumped her.
Once Electra learns the truth, she’ll probably dump R.J. for Will. This twist could have R.J. go to the dark side, which will likely concern Ridge. But how will Brooke feel? Will she see the similarities between R.J. and Thomas? Or will she encourage him to pursue Electra?
