The glitz and glamour of Naples take a dark turn as The Bold and the Beautiful spirals into a dangerous game of love, jealousy, and attempted murder. Just when it seemed like Brooke Logan and Ridge Forrester were on the verge of reconciling under the romantic Italian sky, a sinister force intervenes — and it nearly costs Brooke her life.

It all begins with an unexpected boat ride. Brooke, caught between the familiar pull of Ridge and the persistent charm of Nick Marone, finds herself once again in emotional turmoil. But what starts as a harmless outing quickly morphs into a nightmare. As Ridge watches from a distance, a masked man appears aboard the boat Brooke is on — and before anyone can react, Brooke is shoved overboard into the choppy Mediterranean waters.

Panic ensues. For a moment, it appears that Brooke may have simply lost her footing, but Ridge knows better. From his vantage point, he sees the shadowy figure flee the scene. Without hesitation, he dives in, desperate to save the woman he now realizes he never stopped loving.

Brooke’s near-death experience becomes the emotional jolt Ridge needed. While he pulls her to safety, gasping and shaken, everything becomes clear. Destiny, it seems, has made the decision for him. His true love is Brooke — and always has been. Taylor Hayes, watching the events unfold from the dock, is left heartbroken and humiliated. Her worst fear has just been realized — Ridge has chosen Brooke again, and this time, it nearly cost Brooke her life.

As police launch an investigation into the boating incident, questions begin to swirl. Who would want Brooke dead? Was this an act of jealous rage from someone in their inner circle? Or a calculated attempt to frame Nick Marone, who had invited Brooke onto the boat shortly before the attack? Taylor, shaken and furious, confronts both men, but Ridge is too consumed by guilt and his renewed devotion to Brooke to offer any reassurance.

Meanwhile, back in Los Angeles, the medical scandal surrounding Grace Buckingham explodes. John “Finn” Finnegan and Bridget Forrester dig deeper into the sham surgery that supposedly saved Liam Spencer’s life — and the picture is becoming alarmingly clear. Grace may have faked Liam’s diagnosis in exchange for a massive payout from Bill Spencer. But the real shock comes when they uncover evidence that Grace wasn’t working alone. Was Liam in on the scam… or worse, was someone else pulling the strings to manipulate both his health and his love life?

As tensions rise and secrets begin to unravel, the Forresters, Logans, and Spencers must confront an unsettling truth: someone among them is capable of murder. And the masked man who nearly ended Brooke’s life may be just the beginning.

Will Brooke survive the trauma and uncover the identity of her attacker? Can Ridge protect her this time — or will old enemies come back for revenge?

The waves may have calmed, but danger is still lurking beneath the surface in Los Angeles. What do you think — who wants Brooke gone, and why now?
