A recap of The Bold and the Beautiful episode aired on November 11, 2024
The episode of The Bold and the Beautiful opened at Forrester Creations, where Ridge and Katie discussed the company’s response to Hope’s absence. While Ridge wanted to issue a “no comment,” Katie disagreed.
Steffy pointed out that Hope was gone, and they needed to move forward. Ivy and Electra showed up, and Katie met them for the first time as she prepared to handle the event for the jewelry line's relaunch. Electra said she was just there to help Ivy, but she seemed unsure, which might mean there were other worries.
At the same time, Taylor got a surprise visit from Brooke, who accused Steffy of unjustly treating Hope. Brooke thought Steffy misunderstood the situation and let her feelings get in the way. Taylor remained neutral as Brooke spoke passionately, underscoring her frustration with Steffy’s actions.
Ridge was excited about the upcoming jewelry line launch and noticed that clients were very interested. Will came by to drop off some papers and seemed to know Electra well. Electra, though, made it clear that she wasn't in charge of the relaunch and was just helping her aunt.
Will expressed his enthusiasm and pointed out that the family connection would be highlighted. When Steffy confirmed the press was ready to cover the launch that day, Electra’s anxiety became apparent. Despite her reservations, Will assured her that his mother, Katie, knew what she was doing.
At Il Giardino in The Bold and the Beautiful, Will asked Electra to have lunch with him, welcoming her to Forrester Creations and giving her a break from all the drama. Electra said he was her first friend in Los Angeles, but she grew uncomfortable when he suggested celebrating the press announcement.
Steffy and Ridge talked about the upcoming launch, and they found Electra’s nervousness casual, considering it the first-day jitters. Steffy hoped the event would help them overcome Hope's departure, but Ridge suggested that things weren’t fully resolved. Steffy asked Ridge to support her and reminded him not to let Brooke’s opinions change his mind.
Later, Brooke asked Taylor if she was still seeing her therapist. Taylor said yes and mentioned that Ridge had been very supportive during her treatment, making Brooke uneasy.
The conversation changed when Taylor admitted she had returned to LA thinking she might die and was ready to say goodbye. Brooke was thankful that Taylor had gotten better, but Taylor pointed out that Ridge had played a big part in her recovery.
Taylor mentioned that now she is following her heart as Brooke does while talking about Ridge. This worried Brooke, and she asked Taylor if she still had feelings for Ridge.
This episode of The Bold and the Beautiful closed on a mysterious note: a man in a dark office viewed photos of Electra from the press release, suggesting she might have an unwelcome admirer.
