A chilling scene unfolded on The Bold and the Beautiful last Thursday, July 10, leaving fans both horrified and captivated. At the hospital, Poppy Nozawa (played by Romy Park) shocked everyone with an unexpected reaction: she revealed she was relieved that her daughter, Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada), didn’t survive the shooting. What’s behind this icy twist—and does this mark the end of Luna’s story?

A Cold Response in Crisis

The tension built naturally: Luna was rushed into surgery after a dramatic shooting incident, and her sister, Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda), was bracing for bad news. However, instead of the expected tears or pleas, Poppy’s reaction was disturbingly detached.

In a whisper meant only for Li, she said, “I’m glad she’s dead.” The words struck like a dagger across the room. Li, assuming Poppy was in shock, pressed her. But Poppy stood firm, leaving the entire waiting area stunned into silence.

A Mother’s True Colors?

This scene ripped the mask off Poppy’s relationship with Luna. Her outright admission suggests deep-rooted animosity—confirming what Li and fans have long suspected: Luna may have never received her mother’s compassion or affection.

For Li, the moment confirmed her fears. She’d always believed Poppy’s coldness fueled Luna’s descent into darkness—and now, Poppy’s reaction validated it. The hostility wasn’t limited to hurt feelings—it bordered on relief.

But Luna’s Not Gone for Good

Don’t get too comfortable believing Luna is truly gone. Word is swirling that Luna is returning in September episodes. Writers teased that her “death” may not stick—possibly a dramatic near-death storyline that allows for a comeback.

Rumors hint she might survive with help—be it clandestine medical care or a secret intervention from someone like Li. Soap viewers are all too aware of “resurrections” in this genre, and Luna’s return is already shaping up to be a must-watch twist.

Back at the Hospital: More Lives on the Line

While the fallout from Luna’s shooting dominates Poppy’s scene, the hospital drama didn’t stop there. Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) was admitted in critical condition—shot and facing a brain tumor scare on top of it. As Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) arrived, a distraught Hope insisted Liam must survive—for the sake of their daughters.

Surgeons, including John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan), worked tirelessly to save him. The news: Liam pulled through surgery, but remains in a coma, leaving Hope and the family in emotional limbo. And soon, Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) arrived—already bracing for fight after critical fight as the week’s obsession rotates from Luna to Liam’s recovery.

What It All Means

The Bold and the Beautiful is serving a week of heavy emotional stakes: Luna’s “death,” Poppy’s shocking betrayal, and Liam’s uncertain future. It’s a perfect storm of suspense, family betrayal, and life-or-death consequences—all the makings of compelling soap drama.

Poppy’s callous acceptance of Luna’s supposed death reveals a bond shattered beyond repair—and sets Li on a mission to expose the emotional truth behind her sister’s fall. Meanwhile, Liam’s coma promises more family drama ahead and an emotional rollercoaster for fans.
