What Happened Previously on B&B

Hope (Annika Noelle) was devastated when she found out Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) would not be co-CEO with Ridge (Thorsten Kaye). She was counting on Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) to be demoted, so her mother could save Hope for the Future. Hope doesn’t believe Ridge will make good on his word to get HFTF back into production.

The ace up Hope’s sleeve is that she could go to Logan. She doesn’t want to leave Forrester, but working for the competition is starting to look better to her.

In contrast, Electra (Laneya Grace) has been excelling at Forrester. She was promoted to head of the jewelry line. With her family’s support, she’s navigated heartbreak and come out on the other side.

While she’s entertaining a second chance with Will (Crew Morrow), Electra is still close with R.J. (Brayan Nicoletti). In the friendship department, Electra and Dylan (Sydney Bullock) have reconciled.

However, Dylan is hiding the fact that Remy (Christian Weissman) is her cousin. He’d once been Electra’s friend, but their relationship fell apart after she found out he’d released AI-generated nudes of her on the Internet. The incident was Electra’s first big hurt, and it has affected her ability to trust the people close to her.
