Previously on The Bold and the Beautiful
Luna (Lisa Yamada) caused chaos when she shot both Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) and Liam (Scott Clifton), leaving Liam fighting for his life. After Liam shot Luna in return, he hoped to put an end to the violence. But though Luna seemed to be recovering after surgery, a heartbreaking twist came when Li (Naomi Matsuda) revealed that Luna had died.
Meanwhile, Liam faces an even greater battle as he continues his grueling recovery from the gunshot wounds. On top of the physical aftermath, Liam must also come to terms with a devastating diagnosis—an inoperable brain tumor.
Bill (Don Diamont), desperate for his son’s recovery, struggled with impatience as he anxiously waited for any news. But Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), and even Hope (Annika Noelle) reminded Bill that he was partly to blame for Luna’s dangerous behavior—she should have been locked away and never had the chance to hurt Liam in the first place.

Bill apologized to Liam, acknowledging his role in the events that led to this moment. In an emotional turn, Hope accidentally revealed Liam’s tumor to Bill, sending him into a spiral of guilt and fear for his son’s future.
As Grace (Cassandra Creech) worked tirelessly in the operating room, doing everything she could to give Liam a fighting chance, Bill was there by his side, witnessing his son’s struggle firsthand. Then came a glimmer of hope: Grace let Bill and Liam know there was a Hail Mary chance to save Liam’s life. Bill, desperate to save his son, was willing to pay whatever it took to make it happen. But there was a catch—it had to remain a secret, away from the hospital and everyone else.
In this moment, much like the way Hope and Steffy have put their differences aside to support Liam, even Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang), Taylor (Krista Allen), and Ridge have found common ground, working together for Liam’s well-being.
