Bold & Beautiful looks to be on the verge of forming a new scheme team, the potential of which is… sheesh. Let’s just say it’s so massive that Steffy might want to extend her stay away from L.A.
WTH Is Happening With Sheila and Li?There was a time when no two characters on the canvas loathed each other as much as Sheila and Li. (See below.) From the moment it was revealed that Sheila was Finn’s Biological Mother™, she was a thorn in his adoptive mother’s side. Not only had Sheila had an affair with Li’s husband Jack, but she was hell-bent on forcing her way into Finn’s life — even if that meant murdering Steffy, whose entire family she’d tried to kill at one time or another.
Since the “death” of Finn’s surprise daughter Luna, however, the strangest thing has happened. Sheila and Li have kinda-sorta… bonded. Li, who previously seemed to have no use for Luna, suddenly started feeling sorry for her and blaming sis Poppy for making the young woman into a monster. Sheila could get on board with that; hey, she’s an old pro at shirking responsibility for one’s crimes.
Sheila’s About to Get the Shock of Her Life
Sheila and Li’s tenuous friendship, if we can call it that, hit a speed bump when the latter refused to disclose the location of Luna’s final resting place. But that jolt is going to be nothing compared to the turning point that’s fast approaching: Sheila’s discovery that Li is keeping their granddaughter alive in secret. On one hand, Sheila could hit the roof; this is the second time that Li hid the fact that one of her loved ones wasn’t as deceased as everyone believed. (She did the same thing with Finn, you’ll recall.)
On the other hand, Sheila could just be so happy that Luna is alive that instead of lash out at Li, she’ll thank her for pulling off a miracle. Then it would be up to the two grannies to figure out a way to reintroduce Luna to society without getting her sent right back to prison for — let’s not forget — abducting Hayes’ teacher, holding Steffy at gunpoint and shooting Sheila and Liam. (Review all of Luna’s crimes here.)
The Devastating Potential of a Li/Sheila Team-Up
Where career madwoman Sheila and ice queen Li are concerned, the potential for havoc is unlimited. It wouldn’t just impact poor Steffy, either. Finn would have to debate all over again whether he can turn his back on Luna. Deacon would have to decide whether he can accept that Sheila will not cast off his friends’ killer. Will and Electra would have to start worrying anew that Luna would once again pursue the object of her obsession… the list goes on.
