The Bold and the Beautiful
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers Week of September 28: Logan War Erupts Over Zende Forrester Dominguez
Bold and the Beautiful spoilers week of September 28: Katie sends Dylan after Zende, Daphne shares baby news, and Steffy panics over her lie.
ZENDE FORRESTER DOMINGUEZ IS KATIE’S TARGET WHILE STEFFY’S SURROGACY LIE STARTS TO WOBBLE
TL;DR: Katie makes Dylan’s acceptance depend on luring Zende to Logan, Ridge pushes Brooke to reach out to Hope, and Daphne brags about her surrogate to Ridge and Brooke. By Friday, Steffy is sure people will figure it out.
Monday, September 28: Katie Names Her Price
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers week of September 28 put a Forrester designer on the auction block. Zende Forrester Dominguez is on screen all five days, and Katie Logan Spencer wants him at Logan badly enough to send Melissa “Miss” Dylan shopping. In the network preview, Katie tells Hope that Dylan “has been tasked with talking to Zende,” then twists the knife: “if she wants any kind of acceptance from me, she’d better come through.”
Monday opens with Will Spencer defending his feelings for Dylan, days after she overheard Katie calling their romance a rebound. Katie makes her next move the same day, and it points straight at Forrester. Every beat is laid out on our two-week preview page, and this is the week the Logan war stops being about Hope.
Tuesday, September 29: A Push for Zende, a Plea for Hope
Zende gets surprising encouragement on Tuesday. The preview never names the cheerleader, but it shows Dylan finding him sketching in the Forrester design office, letting him vent, and suggesting he take his talent elsewhere. Across town, Ridge Forrester urges his wife, Brooke Logan, to reach out to her daughter, Hope Logan Spencer.
That is quite a turn for Ridge. Brooke hasn’t shared a scene with Hope since their July blowup ended with Hope collapsing on the runway, and on August 27 Brooke said she had never felt so betrayed. My gut says Ridge wants peace at home because he can smell a new war coming at work.
Should Brooke forgive Hope before Katie raids Forrester again? Write to me at amber@soapoperamagazine.com and make your case.
Wednesday, September 30: Zende Forrester Dominguez Stews on the Sidelines
Zende is frustrated about being sidelined, and he has receipts. Ridge and Steffy made him sole lead designer of Hope For the Future on June 24, then Forrester cancelled the line a week later. Now he takes notes from RJ Forrester on the secret youth line built around Electra Forrester, the project Ridge is betting will pull Forrester out of the hole.
If Zende walks, he walks out knowing what that youth line looks like. Suddenly Katie’s plan to use Dylan as her Zende recruiter looks less like a family test and more like a corporate raid.
Does Zende Leave Forrester for Logan on Bold and the Beautiful?
Not in any confirmed spoiler for this week. Zende gets a push on Tuesday and is still stewing on Wednesday, but no preview has Zende Forrester Dominguez signing with Logan, and none has Katie making him a formal offer yet.
A weekly preview making the rounds on social media goes further, with Dylan agreeing to Katie’s terms despite Will’s warning, Zende weighing an offer from Katie, and Ridge and Brooke going berserk. The confirmed schedule puts Will’s warning on Thursday, after Dylan has already talked to Zende. Ridge and Brooke would have every right to explode. Back in June, Katie promised Brooke she would stop recruiting Forrester employees, and poaching Zende breaks that promise on its face.
Thursday, October 1: Daphne Spreads the Happy News
Thursday gives the surrogacy lie a bigger audience. Daphne Rose Walton shares baby news with Ridge and Brooke, gushing in the preview that “the surrogate Carter and I have found is a remarkable woman.” What Daphne doesn’t know is that Steffy Forrester Finnegan is already pregnant, and Steffy believes Daphne’s husband, Carter Walton, is the father after their one night together in August. Daphne’s baby news traps Steffy in a lie that just got two more witnesses.
Spoiler chatter is split on whether Daphne names Steffy. Either way, John “Finn” Finnegan asked Ridge on September 22 to keep an eye on Steffy before leaving town. Taylor Hayes has told Ridge three times that Steffy hasn’t been herself since Monaco. If Ridge and Taylor ever compare notes, Carter should start packing. Thursday also brings Will’s warning to Dylan about his mother’s demands.
Friday, October 2: Steffy Wobbles, Hope Faces Katie
On Friday, Steffy raises concerns about Carter’s plan. In the preview she tells him, “People are gonna figure this out!” Carter fires back, “We have to do this now, Steffy. We don’t have time.” She is right to panic, because her pregnancy dates back to August and no story on paper can change a calendar.
Hope and Katie also lay everything on the table Friday. Hope already knows Dylan has been sent after Zende, and she knows better than anyone what happens to a family when a Forrester designer jumps to Logan. Reading between the lines, Hope is either the one person who can talk Katie out of it or the one who hands Zende Forrester Dominguez the pen.

Katie Is Playing With Forrester Matches
This week belongs to Katie, and she is overplaying her hand. She promised her sister no more raids and is now turning her son’s girlfriend into a recruiter, all in the same week Ridge plays peacemaker. If Zende bites, Katie wins a designer and loses whatever family she had left.
Steffy’s lie is the slower fuse, and it is burning toward Ridge. We say the Logan raid blows first. Tell us which explosion you are betting on over on our Facebook page.
