In a dramatic turn on The Bold and the Beautiful, Katie and Sheriff Baker

investigate Poppy and discover that she is in possession of Tom’s backpack.

This crucial item was actually found by Luna in Poppy’s former apartment.

Luna, having confided in RJ, did not anticipate RJ would alert Katie. Katie promptly informed Baker, who went to confront Poppy. However, Poppy claimed ignorance about the backpack’s presence. Although Baker seized the backpack, he lacked sufficient evidence to charge Poppy with the murders of Tom and Hollis.

Currently, Poppy remains free, but she knows that the authorities will likely return with more evidence. She is aware that the police are closing in on her due to her involvement in Tom and Hollis’s deaths. The motive behind the murders was to protect her own life and secrets, as both victims were aware of Luna’s true identity. Realizing her situation could soon become dire, Poppy plans to flee the country to avoid arrest.

Once Baker discovers Poppy’s escape abroad, he faces a major obstacle. Since the crime occurred in the U.S., Baker can only act within the country, meaning Poppy’s flight complicates her capture. She will only be pursued again once she returns to the U.S., if that ever happens.

Meanwhile, Bill is grappling with a harsh revelation. His unwavering trust in Poppy is shattered as he recognizes that she has deceived him. Bill had always defended Poppy despite doubts from others, but now he sees the extent of her manipulation. Additionally, Bill learns that Luna, who he believed was not his daughter, has been involved in the deceit alongside Poppy. Bill initially had a favorable view of Luna, thinking she was a kind and understanding person. However, he now believes Luna to be as cunning as Poppy, leading to his decision to expel her from his life.Unbeknownst to Bill, Luna is actually his biological daughter, a fact that will likely lead him to regret his decision to cut ties with her. Bill’s actions may come back to haunt him as he struggles with the fallout from both Poppy’s betrayal and his strained relationship with Luna.
