The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers recap for Thursday, January 23, reveals that Poppy Nozawa (Romy Park) tended to the wound on Jack Finnegan’s (Ted King) arm since Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) had jabbed him so roughly for the blood sample.
Jack and Poppy stood by their story of never sleeping together, which meant there was no way Jack could be Luna Nozawa’s (Lisa Yamada) father.
However, Li thought the proof would be in the paternity results, which were ready once a timer went off nearby.
Whether Poppy and Jack liked it or not, Li vowed that the truth would come to light.
After Li said they were going to find out if Jack was Luna’s father, she picked up the stick with the paternity results and looked at it.
At Bill Spencer’s (Don Diamont) mansion, he barked at security over the phone and warned that everyone was to be stopped at the gate – including his family. Bill knew that would bring more questions, but he suggested to Luna that he’d deal with that problem later.
Luna hated for Bill to feel like he was locked up in his own home, but Bill reiterated that no one could know she was there since they wouldn’t understand.
After Bill and Luna bonded over their difficult pasts, Luna contemplated whether she would’ve been different if she were raised by someone else.
Luna thought back to the drive she had when she came to Los Angeles to work at Forrester and wondered where it came from.
At the cliff house, Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) showed up wearing a new scent for Forrester and got Steffy Forrester’s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) approval.
Once the Forrester fragrance deal was in place, Steffy suggested Daphne could help her family get back in power.
Steffy once again acted like Hope Logan’s (Annika Noelle) influence was the problem, but she was certain Daphne could “cure” Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor).
With Daphne working her own magic, Steffy didn’t think Carter and Hope’s romance stood a chance.
After Steffy insisted all this would benefit Daphne too, she looked forward to regaining control once Hope lost her hold on Carter.
At Forrester Creations on Thursday’s B&B episode, Hope urged Carter to turn on the charm with Daphne during their upcoming meeting.
As Carter and Hope shared a close moment, they suddenly caught a whiff of Daphne entering.
Hope praised the new Forrester scent and hinted about it making you feel like you were under a spell.
Once Hope exited so Carter and Daphne could talk business, Daphne got increasingly flirty with him.
Carter talked about how incredible Daphne’s work was, so she asked if he was looking for incredible as she moved in close and put her scarf in his jacket pocket.
Meanwhile, Steffy got ready to unpack her stuff in the design office since she didn’t have an office of her own yet.
After Hope appeared and started making predictions about the impending Daphne deal, Steffy feigned surprise and acted like this was impressive news.
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Steffy will continue to pull the strings behind the scenes, so stay tuned for updates on the rest of her plans.
