Los Angeles is no stranger to scandal, but Luna Nozawa’s descent into darkness shatters even the city’s high threshold for drama. Once the fragile girl looking for belonging, Luna is now a force of emotional destruction. The catalyst? Bill Spencer, the man who once protected her, suddenly shuts the door on her for good.
It starts in a dimly lit apartment where Luna, frantic and unmedicated, begs Bill for help. But this time, he doesn’t bite. Hardened by years of manipulative games and emotionally draining relationships, Bill sees through her chaos. In a crushing moment, he tells her the truth no one else dared say — she may be the root of her own problems, not Steffy, not the world. His words hit like daggers, and then comes the final blow: he’s cutting her off. No more money, no more safety net. He walks out, leaving Luna in a terrifying spiral.
In the aftermath, Luna’s fury crystallizes into dangerous intent. Convinced Steffy is the true enemy, she reaches for a gun. She blames Steffy for everything — her unraveling life, Bill’s rejection, her isolation. Her twisted logic fuels a new mission: vengeance, beginning with Bill, and ending with Steffy.
Meanwhile, Steffy senses something is coming. Even while sharing a casual moment with Finn, she confesses that Luna haunts her. The paranoia grows when she realizes Sheila is reaching out again. But instead of confronting Finn’s quiet betrayals over Sheila, she lets her suspicions simmer.
Their unease is justified. Liam, hearing Luna has resurfaced, grows alarmed. He doesn’t say it aloud, but he fears Luna’s mental state may tip into violence. His concern is echoed elsewhere — even Sheila, usually the villain, recognizes the signs. She’s seen this brand of madness before — because she’s lived it.
Sheila reaches out to Poppy Nozawa with a chilling confession: Luna wants Steffy dead. Poppy is stunned, horrified, in denial. But Sheila knows what obsession looks like, and Luna’s not just disturbed — she’s dangerous.
Soon, Luna shows up at Il Giardino, demanding to be accepted as Sheila’s granddaughter. Deacon refuses, telling her to leave Los Angeles. But Luna breaks — emotionally and mentally. Her hand reaches for the gun again. Now, nobody is safe.
And then, a break-in near Bill’s estate is reported. A gunshot rings out. Security is shaken, tight-lipped. The rumor mill ignites — was Luna there? Was Bill injured?
Steffy receives an anonymous photo of Luna outside her home — a silent threat with no message. Finn amps up security, but Steffy knows it’s not enough. Luna is coming. The city can feel it. The stage is set for a blood-soaked reckoning.
