The early spoilers for The Bold and the Beautiful covering December 1–5 tease a week packed with emotional fallout, unexpected alliances, and several characters beginning to lose grip on control. Though Thanksgiving limits the number of new episodes, there is no shortage of drama—especially with Hope’s emerging ruthlessness and Sheila’s dangerously unstable state.

As the week leading up to the holiday continues, the storyline circles back to Dylan’s shocking confession. She admits she was the one who struck Luna Nozawa with her car—an incident she claims happened so quickly and fearfully that she fled without realizing the full scope of what occurred. Viewers watch Electra struggle with the revelation. Despite her instinct to shield Dylan, Electra also feels an obligation to be honest with Will, especially since he has already asked her about the strange texts pushing for someone to confess.

Meanwhile, Steffy and Finn open their home for a warm Thanksgiving dinner with Ridge, Kelly, Hayes, and Taylor joining them. Although Luna’s tragic death hangs silently over the holiday, no one dares mention it in front of the children. At Il Giardino, another Thanksgiving gathering takes place with Daphne, Carter, and a handful of others. There is speculation that Deacon might make an appearance—possibly crossing paths with Taylor as he processes the brutal mix of relief and anger tied to Luna’s death. Though Sheila and Deacon are hosting, viewers hope the menu avoids questionable holiday experiments like “turkey pizza.”

Hope, Liam, and the Logan family also prepare for the holiday, with the possibility of celebrations happening at either the Spencer home or the Logan estate. Electra and Will enjoy their first holiday together, hoping the chaos surrounding Luna’s death is finally behind them—at least on the surface.

A pair of preemptions for sports take over both Thanksgiving Day and the day after, as the show warns viewers to double-check their DVR recordings to ensure nothing gets scrambled when new episodes resume.

When the December 1–5 episodes arrive, the aftermath of Luna’s death continues to shake Los Angeles. Although the investigation seems straightforward—Luna ran into the road unexpectedly and Dylan hit her before she could react—Electra still feels compelled to help secure legal support for her friend. She and Will may even involve Bill Spencer to ensure Dylan doesn’t face consequences for what appears to have been a tragic accident.

For Will, however, emotions remain complicated. Even though he never planned to be part of Luna’s life, he cannot ignore the quiet grief of losing a child he never expected to have. The situation presents a rare chance for Will to grow beyond his privileged, carefree persona. If the writers explore this, it could add depth to his relationship with Electra, preventing them from becoming yet another uneventful, picture-perfect couple.

Across town, Deacon finds himself emotionally torn. While he doesn’t mourn Luna’s death—especially after the violence she inflicted—he still feels the loss of the innocent people she harmed. At the same time, he must watch Sheila mourn her granddaughter. Sheila’s grief threatens to drag her into another dark spiral, especially with Finn refusing to let her near his family. With Deacon turning to Taylor for support, Sheila’s sense of isolation worsens, leaving her vulnerable to destructive impulses.

There is speculation of a small memorial for Luna, though it would likely be sparsely attended—perhaps only by Lee and Sheila. Finn probably wouldn’t participate, and Poppy might approach the situation with bitterness rather than grief.

Bill, meanwhile, pounces on an opportunity. Hoping to pull Katie and Will away from the drama at Forrester Creations, he tries to lure them to Spencer Publications. Katie may feel conflicted after the Logans lighten her workload by hiring an outside PR team, but it seems unlikely she will abandon the workplace where Will can spend time with Electra.

Finn and Steffy attempt to move forward now that the danger posed by Luna has ended for good. However, Finn may still grapple with lingering emotional impacts. Katie, who has a history of heart and kidney issues, might also face new health concerns in the coming months.

As the dust settles, wedding planning resumes for Hope and Liam—but Hope’s story is about to shift dramatically. Early December brings a new version of her: controlled, icy, and unafraid to manipulate those around her. With Thomas reportedly returning near Christmas, tension will escalate further as Hope steps into her most unpredictable chapter yet.
