Once again, Dylan is down on her luck on The Bold and the Beautiful, but she may have found an unexpected helping hand on the Tuesday, February 10 episode. Here are a three signs that Dylan might end up working in the restaurant business instead of fashion.
Key Takeaways
- How Deke can help Dylan.
- Why Dylan working for Deacon would be a better choice for her story.
- How Dylan being employed at a Sharpe-owned business could impact the soap.
Deke Found Dylan Eating Out of Il Giardino’s Dumpster
There’s been much speculation over whether RJ (Brayan Nicoletti) or Will (Crew Morrow) will be the Prince Charming that saves Dylan (Sydney Bullock) from homelessness by getting her a job at either Forrester or Logan. But it looks like Deke (Harrison Cone) could be the man that comes to her rescue.
At this point, Dylan needs a job and a roof over her head, not a love interest. So making a friend who can help her without any strings attached would be ideal.
In an unexpected twist, Deke came upon Dylan as she made a meal out of thrown away pizza. Typically, it’d be a potential love interest like Will or RJ that would find her in Il Giardino’s alleyway so that the romantic beats could be furthered.
Deke being the one to catch her opens the door to Dylan being helped without the threat of life-changing drama, like Ivy (Ashleigh Brewer) forcing her out of the beach house’s guest apartment or her ability to stay employed being dependent on the whims of a man who’s interested in her.
The restaurant business is notorious for a high turnover rate among wait staff. It’s highly likely Il Giardino has an opening, and Dylan isn’t in a position to be picky about her employment. Not to mention The Sharpes love taking in strays.
Deacon (Sean Kanan) and Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) are underdogs who’ve been counted out before. They also know what it’s like to have no one to turn to, so they would definitely help Dylan.
Tiki Bar Is Returning
Deacon is expanding his business to include Tiki Bar, so he’s going to need more staff. That’s where Dylan can come in, particularly when it pertains to her talent as an artist.
Dylan could wait tables at Il Giardino and paint murals for Tiki Bar. Being a Sharpe employee gives Dylan more options in the story. She’d have her own space that’s not dependent on a love interest, especially if Deacon lets her live in one of his apartments.
The restaurateur is also known for incorporating entertainment into his businesses. He does open mic nights at Il Giardino. At Tiki Bar, he may have dancers. Given Dylan’s ballet background, that’d be another opportunity for her character to exercise her talents.
Everyone doesn’t have to work in fashion on B&B. Growing Deacon’s business gives the soap opera new avenues to explore with characters, new and established.
The Attention on B&B’s Younger Cast
Il Giardino is the hang out spot for all of the daytime drama’s cast of characters, but the younger crew need their own place to dip in and out of as they navigate life and love. Tiki Bar can be that place and, if it is, it makes the most sense for Dylan to be a staff member there instead of an employee at Forrester or Logan. While being at one of the fashion houses can generate the kind of romantic drama that gets viewers talking, it would be nice to have neutral ground as well.
There should be more places on the soap where The Forresters and The Spencers don’t hold influence or sway. Carving out a lane for The Sharpes to call their domain would be interesting, as would Dylan being a part of it. Young people frequent the hottest spots in town, so it’s likely that’s what Tiki Bar will become. It would still be a location that has plenty of juicy scenes for the audience to enjoy, but it wouldn’t be an establishment the two big families could run roughshod over.
Tiki Bar being a spot for the younger characters also opens the world up for them and adds another workplace option, which would be a win for B&B as it seeks to attract a new generation of viewers.
