THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Esther & Lauren Arrive in Los Angeles for the Forrester Creations Couture Fashion Showdown
On Wednesday’s October 25th episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, the soap opera set against the backdrop of the world of high fashion, kicked off its first of a five episode arc.
In it, Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) will go up against his father, Eric Forrester (John McCook) for Forrester Creations Couture dominance via a fashion show featuring their latest designs. However, what Ridge does not know is that Eric has six months to live.
As the hustle and bustle of getting things ready for the show begins, Genoa City’s Esther Valentine (Kate Linder) and Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman) arrive at Forrester Creations to see Lauren’s dear friend, Eric. For Esther, this is all a dream come true. Think Esther Valentine in OZ and you struck the right chord.

Esther has dreamed of owning a Forrester original, just like the ones Mrs. Chancellor (the late Jeanne Cooper), used to wear. Lauren believes this will be Esther’s chance to make her dreams come true – citing that it’s important to not waste a moment in life, because life is too short.
As the chairs for the fashion show are being prepped, Charlie (Dick Christie) has a call with Pam trying to convince her to come to the fashion show, but she is disinterested and says she was in the middle of making lemon bars. Sitting down in a chair, Charlie says to himself, “I’m such a loser when it comes to love.”
When Lauren goes into Eric’s office, he is thrilled to see her. Eric boasts that this collection is his best ever and will be his grand finale. A shocked and inquisitive Lauren says, “What do you mean your grand finale?” What Lauren is unaware of is that Eric has had terrible tremors and has been coughing up more and more blood throughout the day.
Outside of Eric’s office, Esther looks around the receptionist desk, where it appears she has gone all ‘klepto’ on us, when she appears to be putting something in her purse. Charlie happens by and catches her. When Charlie wants to see what’s in Esther’s purse, she reveals a feather duster and admits she’s compulsive cleaner. Turns out, Charlie is too! The two seem to hit it off and they smile at one another. When Lauren comes to get Esther, she and Charlie says goodbye, which Lauren catches. Is Charlie going to be Esther’s new love interest in a B&B and Y&R crossover? Will Charlie move to GC? Is this just a little flirting between two lonely people? Stay tuned.

Now inside Eric’s office, Esther meets the legendary fashion house patriarch. He kisses her hand and she is starstruck. Eric learns from Esther that she worked for the classy and elegant Katherine Chancellor, who always wore his designs. When Lauren and Esther exit and once alone, Eric begins coughing up blood in his handkerchief and stuffs it in the trash. Eric is determined to make it through this fashion show, no matter what the cost!
Check out the scene between Eric and Lauren below. Do you think she will put two-and-two together and realize something is very wrong with Eric?
Now, let us know what you thought of Esther and Lauren’s adventure at Forrester Creations, and if you would be down for a Charlie and Esther romance via the comment section.
No way YR will bring back Charlie to GC. Esther rarely is on. They don’t even write characters like Lauren besides using her to babysit Phyllis. I don’t understand why Lauren had to bring back Esther. I watch Lauren since more 35 years and even if she changed & matured, she wouldn’t bore to make the Esther’s dreams to come true, especially since they aren’t close. Lauren could come alone, she did it numerous times.
At least, we get to see Lauren. It’s great she gets 5 episodes on #BoldandBeautiful, something #YR refuses to give her.
Who in the world would want Lauren to came to LA and not see Sheila? These writers are unreal!
Ugh I hope Esther chokes on a lemon square!
That’s what I kept thinking. Give her some of Pam’s lemon bars to shut her up and leave Pam’s man alone. She should be back from GH by now.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Steffy Comes to the Realization She May Be Pregnant … With Carter’s Child!

In case you thought for one millisecond that Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) would come out unscathed after their one drunken night together, you can kiss that notion goodbye.
As predicted, it looks like The Bold and the Beautiful is launching into a soapy trope plot that will cause drama for months, maybe even years to come, following the conclusion of the Wednesday, September 9 episode.
Finn (Tanner Novlan) and Steffy have Carter and Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) over for an uncomfortable dinner party. (Thanks to Finn’s invite). During the get-together, Finn decides to talk about what happened in Monaco and how he almost lost the love of his life for good. Finn says he knows he never has to question Steffy’s commitment to their marriage. Cue: Steffy spilling wine all over the dinner table.

Not to be outdone, Daphne opens up about how she briefly split from Carter, and felt terrible for letting her husband down and what she put him through as she has been devastated over the fact she cannot give him a baby.
DAPHNE WANTS TO FIND A SURROGATE THAT SHE KNOWS
Later, Finn wants to show Daphne and Carter how to connect with surrogates around the world, if they should go down that route, and how you can really fine-tune what type of child you want to have even through surrogacy. Daphne’s been thinking about it and she wants this to be Carter’s baby, so they are thinking about using a donor egg.
Meanwhile, Steffy isn’t feeling very well, and is feeling hot and unsteady (Of course!). Daphne says that she would feel more comfortable it is wasn’t a stranger who was carrying their child, but would think about it.
UNSTEADY STEFFY
After Carter and Daphne leave for the night, Steffy is feeling more queasy. She thinks to herself, maybe she has food poisoning as Finn hugs her. Suddenly, she looks absolutely mortified. Steffy realizes all these symptoms she is having may signal she is pregnant!
It would seem The Bold and the Beautiful writers are going down a path of Steffy becoming pregnant with Carter’s child, while at the same time Daphne wanting Steffy to be her surrogate. If that holds true, then Steffy would have to do some fancy cover-up for months to keep Daphne from ever finding out she is truly having her child with Carter.
So, what do you think? Is this the story B&B is set to embark? Will Steffy be pregnant with Carter’s child and then be the “surrogate” for Daphne and Carter too? Weigh-in via the comment section.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Anna Breaks Down in Front of Jason and Britt After Shots Are Fired

The Wednesday, September 9 episode of General Hospital featured top-notch performances by Finola Hughes and Steve Burton, as Anna holds Jason and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) at gunpoint on Mount Emerson.
Anna is not in her right mind as hallucinations of Peter (Wes Ramsey) overtake her, egging her on to shoot and kill Britt. Jason begs Anna to put down the gun, but it’s clear Anna is speaking to someone who is not there, but in a direction that is just past Britt.
Suddenly, Anna screams at Britt, “You’re just like your father!” Anna also tells Britt that she knew Britt was aware that she was locked up on Spoon Island and did nothing to save her. Britt turns to Jason and tells him she had no idea Anna was on the Island, “until Cullum showed up in Port Charles.” That declaration gave Jason pause.

“PETER” TAKES A BULLET
Next, Anna is overcome with angst, filled with tears and screams out, “I won’t let you beat me!” She fires the gun where the imaginary Peter was standing, as Britt screams and Jason dove to cover her. Now completely shaken, Jason took the weapon from Anna and ordered Britt to leave the scene as Anna collapsed in Jason’s arms.
Jason was so concerned for Anna. She reveals she’s been seeing visions of Peter August since France. Jason shared his theory with Anna that she was manifesting her worst fears about Faison. However he knows deep down Anna would never have shot Britt. Jason promises to come back and clean up the area, but would take Anna home first.

ANNA ADMITS TO EMMA SHE TRIED TO KILL BRITT
At Anna’s, Jason brings her in the front door as Emma is there. Jason tells Emma (Braedyn Bruner) he would like to return and spend the night. A confused and worried Emma get the full story from her grandmother.
Anna explains she tried to kill Britt and she is not as well as she was pretending to be in France. Cut to: Jason cleaning up the site of Anna’s plot against Britt on Mount Emerson. He moves over and finds bullet casings on the ground and examines one of them.
The story climax also signaled the end of the run for Wes Ramsey, who has been showing up on episodes over the last several months as Anna’s dark side conscience. Now that Anna was able to break the psychological hold visions of “Peter” had on her, it ends this latest return of Ramsey’s.
So, what did you think about the scenes between Anna and Jason? Do you think Jason and Britt’s relationship will come to an end now that seemingly Britt revealed she knew Anna was held captive after Cullum came to town? Glad to know Anna won’t be haunted by visions of Peter August anymore? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Did Brook Lynn Deserve Chase Walking Out on Her?

The marriage of Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) and Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) may have come to an end by the conclusion of the Tuesday, September 8 episode of General Hospital.
In story, confronted by Trina (Tabyana Ali), and in front of a room full of Quartermaines, Brook Lynn copped to being the other driver involved in the crash that scarred Jordan’s (Tanisha Harper) face and ultimately sent Curtis (Donnell Turner) to prison.
Chase, who thinks at this point Brook Lynn was covering up her involvement by protecting someone else in the family is shocked to learn it’s Brook Lynn who actually was the driver. Brook Lynn explains she never saw any evidence of a crash when she ran into Jordan’s car, so she didn’t stop to check on anyone. Trina and Jordan are outraged as is Chase.

CHASE PUTS BROOK LYNN ON BLAST
Soon, it comes out that Tracy (Jane Elliot) was involved in the cover-up, and tries to point out that Brook Lynn wasn’t responsible for causing the accident or Curtis punching Isaiah, but Trina says that Brook Lynn tore her family apart, and her father is in prison without the ability to see his newborn son. Trina storms out with Kai (Jen Austin Astrup).
Next, Chase goes on blast on Brook Lynn in front of her entire family. Chase starts to walk out the front door as Brook Lynn tries to stop him. At this point, Chase is all about being lied to, and he goes in on his wife, that they promised there would be no more secrets between them.
Brook Lynn digs a deeper hole for herself when she explained that she’d had a glass of wine before getting in the car to see Gio (Giovanni Mazza) and Trina perform at Charlie’s. She admits to being terrified that she’d lose any chance of adopting baby Phoebe, if she called the police.
TO THE GATEHOUSE HE GOES
Chase is furious that Brook Lynn framed Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) for what she caused and did. With that, Chase leaves Brook Lynn in the dust and heads straight to the gatehouse door to see Willow!
Cut to: Brook Lynn devastated on the staircase of the Q mansion and her dad, Ned Ashton (Wally Kurth) sitting with his daughter to try to comfort her when she decrees her marriage is over.
Now in the pick-up, take a look at the General Hospital teaser video for today’s Wednesday, September 9, episode below.
So, what did you think of how Brook Lynn’s life just blew up in front of her? Does she deserve to have Chase walk out on her for what she did? Do you want Brook Lynn and Chase to work things out, or are you betting by the end of this week Chase and Willow will have hit the sheets? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
