The shockwaves from Liam’s miraculous recovery are still being felt across Los Angeles, but there’s a dark secret quietly brewing in the shadows, one that could unravel everything. While the Foresters and Spencers are celebrating the medical miracle that saved Liam, no one suspects that Lee Finnegan, always the calm and composed doctor, has been hiding a devastating truth. Luna, the woman they all thought was dead, is alive—and it’s Lee who has been keeping her hidden.
For weeks, Lee has been quietly overseeing Luna’s recovery in a secret medical suite far from the prying eyes of the hospital staff and family members. No one, not even Finn, knows that Luna’s death was a fabrication. Lee had to act quickly after the shooting, moving Luna’s unconscious body and creating an elaborate ruse to make everyone believe she was gone. Now, with Luna slowly regaining consciousness, the truth is beginning to emerge, and it’s more shocking than anyone could have predicted.
When Luna finally opens her eyes, she finds herself alone in a darkened room, disoriented and confused. The first thing she sees is Lee sitting beside her, watching over her with a calm but calculating gaze. As Luna’s mind starts to clear, she stares at Lee, searching for answers. Her voice weak, she whispers just five words that will change everything: “Am I dead, or not?”
These five words carry so much weight, as Luna finally realizes what Lee has done to keep her alive. After all of Luna’s destructive actions—from threatening Steffy to pulling a gun on Will—she never thought anyone would ever show her mercy, let alone save her life. But Lee, in a moment of compassion, chose to protect her, believing that there was still something worth saving in Luna. As Luna hears Lee’s explanation of how she faked her death, tears fill her eyes. She can’t believe the magnitude of what Lee has risked to protect her, and in that vulnerable moment, Luna is overcome with emotion.
“Why would you do this for me?” Luna asks through tears, her voice trembling with disbelief.
Lee, without hesitation, replies: “Because I believe in second chances, but only if you’re willing to change.”
Luna, still reeling from the shock, agrees to Lee’s terms. She must remain hidden until she is physically and mentally stable, and only then will Lee decide what’s next for her. But as Luna recovers in secrecy, Lee is left questioning whether Luna’s remorse is genuine, or if the manipulative rage that led to her previous actions will eventually return. Lee knows better than anyone that Luna’s dark side could easily resurface.
Meanwhile, back at the hospital, Finn’s suspicions begin to grow. He notices glaring inconsistencies in the report of Luna’s death. There are no autopsy records, no death certificate, and when he questions Lee about it, she skillfully deflects. Finn can’t shake the feeling that something is off, especially given how Lee has hidden truths from him before. Could she be hiding something else again?
As the puzzle pieces fall into place, Steffy believes her nightmare is finally over, but little does she know that the real danger might still be lurking in the shadows. With Luna alive and being cared for by Lee, will she return with a vengeance? Or, will Lee’s risky intervention be enough to change her for good?
The question remains: will Luna truly change after being saved by Lee, or will she come back more dangerous than ever? The truth about Luna’s survival—and Lee’s dangerous deception—could have devastating consequences for everyone involved. What’s next for Luna, Lee, and the entire family? Let us know your thoughts!
