The Rinse, October 21: Why Luna’s Right (and Wrong) About Her Baby Daddy Drama on The Bold and the Beautiful

In Tuesday’s (October 21) emotionally charged episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) proved that she can still stir up chaos from behind bars. Pregnant, delusional, and convinced that she can manipulate her way out of prison, Luna made a few sharp observations — but just as many catastrophic miscalculations.

Here’s why Luna is partly right about her situation… and why she’s still dangerously wrong.


Luna’s Right: Bill’s Still Emotionally Invested

Luna may be manipulative, but she’s not blind to Bill Spencer’s (Don Diamont) weak spot — his family. Despite his fury over her actions, Bill can’t ignore that she’s carrying his grandchild. That emotional tether makes Luna believe she still has leverage.

And in a way, she’s not wrong. Bill and Katie (Heather Tom) are already mobilizing to seek custody of the unborn child, ensuring it grows up far away from Luna’s influence. Even if his feelings for Luna are nonexistent, Bill’s protective instincts toward the baby give her a sliver of relevance.

Luna also knows that the Spencer name carries power, and she’s betting that her pregnancy keeps her connected to it — at least for now. “He won’t let his grandchild grow up in prison,” Luna mutters, clinging to the last ounce of control she thinks she has.steffy angry hair


Luna’s Wrong: She’s Living in a Fantasy

But Luna’s biggest mistake is believing that her pregnancy gives her a future with Will Spencer (Crew Morrow). Will’s heart belongs to Electra (Laneya Grace), and he’s made it crystal clear that he wants nothing to do with Luna — or her manipulative games.

Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) tried to drill that reality into her during their tense prison confrontation. Steffy reminded Luna that she’s not part of the Spencer family, just the mother of a child they’ll raise without her. Luna may have once fooled Bill into mercy, but that mercy is gone.

“You’re not a Spencer,” Steffy tells her. “The baby is. You’re just the problem they’re cleaning up.”

Still, Luna’s delusion runs deep. By the end of the episode, she hatches another disturbing plan — asking her cellmate to punch her in the stomach to fake an attack. She hopes that Bill will panic, believe she’s in danger, and use his influence to get her released from prison.

It’s a chilling move that shows just how far Luna is willing to go — and how detached from reality she’s become.katie reassures worried will


The Bottom Line

Luna’s instincts about Bill’s lingering guilt and emotional vulnerability might be spot-on. But her refusal to face the truth — that the Spencers will fight for the baby, not for her — will likely be her undoing.

Her manipulative tactics once bought her time. Now, they’re digging her deeper into a hole that even Bill’s power might not be able to pull her from.bill tells luna she will rot


What’s Next for Luna?

Rumors suggest that Luna’s latest stunt could backfire in the worst way. If Bill discovers she faked another attack, she could be moved to solitary confinement, cutting off her last chance at contact with Will.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, actress Lisa Yamada’s Daytime Emmy win has fans speculating that Luna’s storyline is about to take another shocking twist — possibly one that forces her to finally confront her past and the mess she’s created.
