THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Sheila Shoots Finn after Aiming for Steffy in Cliffhanger Shocker
It was the talk of the soap twitterverse on Friday. Once again, it seems The Bold and the Beautiful was able to pull off a major moment that no one saw coming – which is increasingly hard to do in the social media and spoilers world in which we live.
In story, Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) has become increasingly unglued during her confrontation with Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) in the back alley, as Steffy repeatedly tells her evil mother-in-law that she will not allow her anywhere near Finn (Tanner Novlan), or her grandson Hayes.
This all comes on the heels of Steffy learning that Sheila was the responsible party for getting Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) to unknowingly drink again on New Years Eve, which has set off a chain of events that led Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) back to Taylor (Krista Allen).
However, Sheila’s plot against Brooke, now takes another devastating turn. Defiant and angry, Sheila tells Steffy, “No one is ever going to keep me away from Finn and Hayes. Not even you, Steffy.”
Steffy keeps adding fuel to the fire telling Sheila that Finn knows what he did to Brooke and she will get him to hate her forever.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, Finn is very concerned that Steffy hasn’t texted him back. He checks her location and is worried why she would be at Il Guardino? Finn jumps in his car and heads over to the restaurant and while driving has flashbacks of Steffy telling him what Sheila did to Brooke. He puts pedal to the metal and rushes to find his wife.
Sheila has now flipped out after Steffy tells her she will never see Finn again. Next, Sheila grabs a gun from her purse, just as Finn rushes into the back alley and steps in front of Steffy as Sheila pulls the trigger!
Finn falls into the trash bags, bleeding out as he tells Steffy how much he loves her and to tell their son, how much he loves him. Steffy cries out and tells Sheila to call for help. Sheila is shocked that she shot her own son!
Steffy shouts to Sheila “You killed you’re only son!” Next, Steffy grabs her phone to call for help, and says Sheila will pay. As she tries to dial 911, Steffy is staring down the barrel of the gun with Sheila pointing it straight at her telling Steffy to put down the phone … now!
Looks like Finn has died, Steffy needs to be saved and Sheila has gone off the rails!
What did you think of today’s shocking ending of The Bold and the Beautiful? Share your thoughts in the comment section. But first, check out the final moments after Finn is shot below.
What a shocker from Mr. Bell as I was hoping that Finn would be on the canvas for a long time. Another family “shot” to pieces. I am sure there are more surprises next week! I guess Mr Novlan can do more Liberty Mutual commercials or join the Hallmark family. Enjoyed his time on the No 2 soap.
CBL…just saw Tanner on a Liberty Mutual ad. This ad was running before his demise. Makes you wonder if he knew he was going to get killed off weeks before spoilers since ads are are put together weeks ahead. If so well kept secret with no reason why.
People will hate on bold but the episode was great. K brown plays crazy like no other both her and wood were dynamite in those scenes and now the story will get even more interesting if someone missed Thursday and Friday watch them. Both great episodes
I think a lot of us saw something like this coming. But what did Steffy expect? As usual,, like Carly, she just can’t keep her mouth shut. She already thought Sheila was unhinged, and she had a history of shooting her mother. If she felt this way don’t confront her, ever. No good would come of it. Just don’t like seeing Finn the victim of this. Hope he doesn’t die.
Michael Fairman SOAP narrative here is right “NO ONE” seen it coming, or rather ALOT of fans did not. I sure didn’t. I assumed it would be more dramatic if we see, and would be a FORRESTER shot dead. Bell said, It’ll be something we never seen done before. A Forrester would be more devastating, and more real, to go down like that. Steffy should die. But, be found later as alive,not Finn,
no need to kill off a young almost mid 30s, happy man, healthy focus on being good hard working and LOYAL to Steffy. She has never had a loyal man, and again we see Steffy character, with multiple kids, having her husband murdered in front of her by his own birth mother, is cruel. I hope BELL bring him or if steffy die back to life, like DAYS OF OUR LIVES do all the time. FINN should not be dead,IF he did die. He should be alive. FANS are outraged, and i am understanding why.
Maybe since there was nothing about him going to the hospital or no police called…. No funeral??? It
wouldn’t surprise me if “someone finds him and takes him away to nurse him back to health “. That’s been done 25 times or so on other soaps.
I guess we’ll see !!!
pj
Reading rumors that what your saying is correct, but I think he’s probably being treated under wraps at the hospital, maybe by his mother Li who is a doctor.
Pj…Yes it is strange we haven’t heard any followup to Finn being killed like funeral preparations. Yet they are rushing those for Rey in Y&R, along with a wedding. And no one ever saw Peter taken away by law enforcement and medical people in GH.
Sheila killed her own son. I never saw this one coming. BRAVO for a very nicely well-kept secret!!
Doesn’t Shelia have another son? Ryder?
Yes, twins : Daisy and Ryder
I’m pretty sure you are correct. Ryder on Y and R is definitely her son. Just cannot recall if it is her biological son.
Yes, Daisy and Ryder were her kids. Although the timeline of Sheila having any of these kids makes no sense whatsoever. Daisy and Ryder would be very close in age to Finn now. And Sheila’s other mystery daughter Mary is in that same age range too. It’s very lazy, sloppy writing and totally insulting to viewers who invested so many decades in Sheila’s continuing story on both B & B and Y & R. Not to mention the fact that Lauren shot and killed her after she had plastic surgery to look like Phyllis. I am not saying that logic necessarily has any place in soaps, but there should be some attempt at continuity.
Thanks for the history. I agree on the timeline, especially since Sheila is the same character on the two shows. And as far as I know, there has been no reference to Sheila of being alive in Genoa City, and Lauren is supposedly very good friends with Eric Forrester. If Sheila were a man, then all of these same age kids with different mothers could be possible, but for a woman it is a little more difficult to pull off, even in soap land.
He is.
The FIRST thing that should have happened was one of them call 911 for help!! How stupid that Stephie tells Shiela to call when she has a phone herself!!
I knew something big was coming down the pike. But even what we saw on Friday (which was supposed to air on Wednesday, March 30), proved to shock me to my very core. What a fantastic episode.
I hope Finn is alive plus he needs to stick around so that Bradley Bell can come up with a love triangle between Steffy Finn and a returning Marcus played by recast actor Tyler Lepley.
Boy, What I thought was bad got worse in a hurry. I kept telling Steffy to shut her mouth and wasn’t surprised when Shelia lost it and grabbed her, but as scared as Steffy was she just kept threatening Shelia and I thought Deacon might come in and save her. WRONG! I can’t believe they are sacrificing Finn for that witch Shelia. I guess they have someone else in mind for Steffy, hope it won’t be Liam again, or his brother and father who are still available.
I DON’T want Finn to die !! Love him with Stef. Keep him on the show!!
Praying and hoping Finn is not dead. Don’t want to see Steffi as a young widow. Hope Finn survives.
I knew that in the end Sheila would have to lose what meant the most to her, her son Finn. But it happened quickly and the fallout was over the silly prank of getting Brooke drunk. Oh, how I would have liked more suspense, more intrigue. We got a lot of reaction that was out of balance with what happened. A lot of talk. I hoped for a wider swath of Sheila mayhem. Now Sheila surely will go to a psychiatric hospital where she will plot again to wreak havoc on the Forresters. Maybe an escape to abduct Hayes some day. Now, let’s hope Brooke is not too quick to take Ridge back. Sheila did her dirty but so did the family who were to stand by her.
Hated it!! Barret be April fools joke!!!!
Omg, What’s about too happen too Steffy & Thomas relationship If he told someone, this could have been avoided. Can’t wait to see how this plays out
Will Steffy even be able to tell the secret if Sheila harms her or threatens to harm Hayes? That would leave Thomas who is a gutless wonder and wants Mommy and Daddy together vs keeping this nasty secret that is causing pain and now potential physical harm. I don’t think Bell Jr is done yet. Fasten your seat belts.
The way Iam seeing and reading , Finn may not be dead and if he’s not it looks like Bridget got there just in time to save him.
What are the writers thinking??? It’s bad enough in the real world with too many people having guns and carrying them around to put them into the soaps. Along with the happenings in the Ukraine.
I hope Finn isn’t dead.
I hope this is the end of Sheila we have done it enough and now here we go back to the Liam Hope and Steffy triangle. Don Diamont has been wasted for months so has Heather Tom it’s crazy. No way would Taylor even come close to Sheila we have had enough move on. Sorry for the guy who played Finn but we knew he was toast a long time ago handsome guy but very weak actor. I feel sorry for the show it was once a must see
I enjoyed looking at Finn but you are right, he is a very weak actor. I really didn’t enjoy seeing Finn and Steffy together at all. All she did was rub on his shirtless chest but they really haven’t had anything meaningful on in forever. Just didn’t happened in my opinion
pj
Me again. I guess you missed the big romantic bedroom scenes just before all this happend and I’ve been wondering if she’d turn up pregnant again.
Disappointed A storyline that finally made sense, and Bell kills the character worth watching. The writing is so bad on this soap.
Brad is so transparent it’s like looking thru glass he has everyone talking about how happy Steffy and Finn are and a romantic evening who didn’t know Finn was toast. Just hang on to your hat soon that picture of Liam and Steffy will be back up on her wall.
Kay
OMG. I hope that doesn’t happen. If I was Finn I would have told her it was either him or that damn picture.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Steffy Tells Carter She’s Pregnant, But He Has a Way ‘Out of This Situation For All of Us’
After taking a second pregnancy test on the Friday, September 12 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) freaks out ever more when it come back positive, too. Leading her to shriek, multiple times over, “Oh my God! Oh my God! I’m pregnant!”
As previously reported, CBS and The Bold and the Beautiful have already confirmed that in the story, the baby Steffy is carrying is Carter’s (Lawrence Saint-Victor) which kicks-off their 40th season of storytelling. However, could there be a twist down the line that it’s really Finn’s (Tanner Novlan)?
On Friday’s episode, Carter gets a text from his wife, Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) telling him she wants to talk more about surrogacy later, since she cannot carry Carter’s child, and the couple was exploring ways for them to have a baby. Suddenly, Carter flashes back to waking up next to Steffy on the couch in the office after they had sex the night before in their drunken stupor.

Carter thinks nothing will come of their “mistake” if they keep their mouth shut. Steffy responds, “You’re wrong.” She goes on to explain that she’s pregnant! That declaration stuns Carter and we fade to black.
However, it was the preview for the action next week on The Bold and the Beautiful, that aired at the end of Friday’s episode and is now all over B&B’s social media that is the real tell-tale sign of where this story is heading.

General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason and Britt Reach an Impasse; Is This the End of Their Relationship?
On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.
Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.
However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.

BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON
Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.
He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.
Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”
General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”
So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.
On today’s Thursday, September 10 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) discovers she’s pregnant, after taking a home pregnancy test, that will launch a new story arc that will remain front and center for the show in the months ahead.
The life-changing story kicks off the B&B’s 40th season which officially began on September 8. In it, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) is the biological father of Steffy’s unborn child from their drunken night together when both endured turbulent times in their marriages.
Previously, Carter had trouble with Daphne (Murielle Hilaire), when she initially walked out on him, because she could not carrying his child. Meanwhile, Steffy broke up with Finn (Tanner Novlan) while in Monaco over Finn’s mother Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) showing up, who once tried to kill her.

Fast-forward, Carter and Steffy made a pact that no one will ever need to know about their drunken night together, but now with Steffy becoming pregnant it changes everything. Making matters all the worse, Daphne views Steffy as her best friend, in fact, Daphne and Carter have been talking about having a child via surrogacy. While Finn had showed the couple how to start the process of finding a surrogate, Daphne felt just choosing a random person to carry Carter’s child is so impersonal. She would rather have it be someone she knows.
It does not take a scientist to predict … that somehow Steffy will carry the baby pretending to be the surrogate, when she its biological mother, and along the way, the questions become, does she keep the whole thing somehow a secret to herself? Doe Carter find out at some point? Stay tuned to see how this story reveals itself.
At its root, this is a major storyline for Wood, who has already won three Daytime Emmy Lead Actress Awards in her 18 years with The Bold and the Beautiful. In that time, her character of Steffy has experienced multiple pregnancies, given birth to two children, Kelly with Liam (Scott Clifton) as the father, and Hayes with Finn as the father, and endured a miscarriage.
So, what did you think of Steffy getting confirmation she is pregnant and looking mortified when she found out? What will she do next? Will she tell Carter? Will Daphne come to Steffy to ask her to be her surrogate, which Steffy may think will be the answers to her prayers, only for the truth to come out later, or falling in love with the baby since its hers to be begin with?
