This week on The Bold and the Beautiful, a dangerous plan spirals completely out of control. What begins as a coordinated sting operation to trap Luna Nozawa soon becomes a disaster that threatens Steffy, Hayes, and everyone caught in Luna’s path.

The drama kicks off when Will Spencer agrees to participate in a secret setup designed to make Luna incriminate herself. Working alongside Finn, Steffy, Electra, and Chief Baker, Will prepares to wear a wire and get Luna talking about her real intentions—especially her obsession with Steffy. They’re hoping to catch her saying enough to justify locking her up again, despite the fact that she’s already been pardoned. Everyone remembers how badly the last sting went: Bill Spencer tried something similar with Sheila, only for it to spectacularly fail when nothing Sheila said could be legally used. Will is determined not to end up humiliated like his father.

Electra keeps a close eye on Will during the mission, since she knows part of the strategy depends on him flirting with Luna. Luna has already been craving a romantic moment with him, and Will’s suggestive text about wanting to “see her tattoos” gives her the impression he’s ready to get intimate. But that very expectation complicates everything—because Electra is watching, and Will knows he can’t go too far.

The plan sounds simple: Will goes in wired and recorded, gets Luna comfortable, and prompts her to talk about her fixation on Steffy. But as Steffy warns everyone, Luna is cunning and impossible to predict. Getting her into a trap won’t be easy. And sure enough, things go sideways fast.

BNB spoilers tease that Luna realizes Will is setting her up. Instead of falling for his act, she sees through the façade and bolts. The only one who ends up “stung” is Will—who’s left with an empty recording and a ruined strategy. But her sudden escape hints that she may have slipped up and said something incriminating before figuring out the truth. Luna doesn’t run without a reason.

The danger intensifies when Luna’s comments from previous episodes come into play. She recently told Remy that Steffy deserves to feel what it’s like to be separated from her child—just as Luna felt robbed of Finn. That chilling remark suggests she may target Hayes. If she’s angry, unstable, and now on the run, snatching Finn and Steffy’s son could be her next step.

But the second half of the story shifts into Luna’s perspective, giving a deeper look into how everything unraveled. Luna has been living a double life—on one hand, a polished Forrester intern rising through the ranks; on the other, a vigilante digging into suspicious files she discovered on an old Forrester server. Hidden financial records, strange inventory gaps, coded memos—she believed they pointed to something dark involving Poppy, and possibly even Tom. Determined to expose the truth, she planned her own sting operation.

Her setup was precise: wearing a vintage Forrester brooch outfitted with a micro-camera, she arranged to meet an informant in the abandoned showroom, expecting to catch a corrupt insider making a confidential handoff. She reassured R.J. she’d be back by dinner, ignoring his intuition that something felt off.

But when Luna enters the dim, dusty showroom, she quickly realizes the situation isn’t what she prepared for. The person waiting isn’t her informant—it’s Trevor, the new consultant with sharp suits, sharp smiles, and a darker edge she never proved but always suspected. He steps out of the shadows and admits, without fully admitting, that he’s “invested” in whatever scheme she’s trying to expose.

Luna’s plan starts collapsing instantly. She considers running for the side exit, but Trevor notices. Just as he closes in, the door bursts open—R.J. arrives, having followed Luna out of worry. His sudden presence shocks both Luna and Trevor. And it couldn’t come at a worse time. R.J. doesn’t know about the camera. He doesn’t know about the sting. He doesn’t know Luna is in real danger.

Trevor seizes the moment, taunting them both. Luna tries to explain herself to R.J., admitting she found evidence and was trying to bring it to light quietly. R.J. feels blindsided, hurt that she didn’t trust him with the truth. Trevor, enjoying every second, mocks their emotional confrontation.

The careful operation Luna spent weeks constructing has officially fallen apart. Will’s sting has failed, Luna’s sting has failed, and now she and R.J. are standing face-to-face with a man who may be far more dangerous than anyone realized.

And just as Trevor smirks and says their tender little reunion is “ruining the moment,” the room grows colder—because now, the real danger is only beginning.
