In the aftermath of the hospital chaos, Lee Finnegan makes a chilling, calculated move — one that could either redeem a young life or spiral into a disaster of epic proportions.

After Luna Nozawa miraculously survives surgery, Lee sees what few others can: Luna doesn’t need handcuffs and headlines — she needs a clean slate. Knowing that the legal system would show little mercy, especially after Luna’s violent breakdown and near-fatal shooting of Liam Spencer, Lee takes matters into her own hands. But how does one fake a death in a hospital crawling with media, family, and law enforcement?

The answer lies in Lee’s connections, competence, and cold precision.

As the attending physician, she personally monitors Luna’s recovery and restricts access to her room. Only a few trusted staff members are allowed in — and those who know the truth are bound by silence. For the rest of the world, Lee releases a falsified medical update: Luna flatlined, efforts to revive her failed, and she “died” in recovery.

A private transfer follows. Under the cover of night, Lee arranges for Luna to be moved via a hospital transport vehicle under an alias. The destination? A remote wellness clinic in another state — possibly even another country — where Luna will be registered under a false identity. To the world, she’s gone. To Lee, she’s hidden — safe, but not free.

But here’s the catch: is this really salvation… or just postponing the inevitable?

Luna now lives as a ghost — cut off from friends, family, and any chance at redemption in the open. Her name is stained, her past unforgiven, and her present cloaked in deception. What if she slips up? What if she contacts someone from her old life? What if the truth leaks? Every lie Lee tells to protect her only digs the grave deeper.

There’s also the moral dilemma: does Luna deserve this second chance? And more importantly, has she truly changed?

This could be a moment of transformation — a chance for Luna to rebuild herself away from the chaos. Maybe Lee believes that by removing her from the toxic environment and the judgment of her mother Poppy, Luna can rediscover the innocence and potential she once had.

But secrets have a way of clawing their way to the surface in The Bold and the Beautiful.

And when they do, the question won’t just be “Where is Luna?” — it’ll be “What did Lee Finnegan sacrifice to keep her hidden?”
