Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Zende Forrester Dominguez Picks Logan, Then Demands Dylan Stays

ZENDE FORRESTER DOMINGUEZ TURNS HIS EXIT INTO DYLAN’S LIFELINE

TL;DR: Zende Forrester Dominguez picked Logan on Friday and gave Ridge his notice. Spoilers say next week he hands Ridge an ultimatum, and his price is “Dylan stays!” Will’s move-in ask is still buzz.

Zende Picked Logan, and Dylan’s Job Became His Price

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for Zende start with a choice he already made. On Friday, October 9, Zende Forrester Dominguez looked Ridge and Eric in the eye, gave his notice and said, “I’m going to work with Hope at Logan.” Eric begged, “Please, don’t leave us.”

Spoilers say next week he turns that exit into leverage. On Tuesday he hands Ridge an ultimatum, and in the preview he asks, “What I say goes, right?” before he declares, “Dylan stays!”

That puts Melissa “Miss” Dylan‘s job in the hands of the man she nudged toward Logan’s door. On Thursday Electra Forrester overheard Zende thank Dylan for getting him to Logan, then told Eric Forrester and Ridge Forrester that Dylan was a “back-stabbing traitor.” On Friday she pushed them to fire Dylan that very day.

Then Electra found Dylan in the design office to gloat: “Are you scared for your job? Because you should be.” Nobody was fired by the closing credits. Every day of the fallout is mapped in our two-week Bold and the Beautiful spoilers.

Should Ridge give in to Zende to keep Dylan, or call his bluff? Write to me at amber@soapoperamagazine.com and tell me why.

Zende Threw RJ’s Line and Thorne’s Basement at Ridge

Friday’s blowup had been building for two weeks. On September 28 Zende Forrester Dominguez told Ridge, “You killed the line that I love!” Two days later he said the Electra line felt like a demotion, stuck answering to RJ Forrester.

On Friday it all came out: “RJ comes back from his shallow influencer life, and you gift him a line in record time.” Ridge shot back, “Are you talking about my son?”

Then Ridge told him, “It takes years,” and Zende had his answer loaded. RJ didn’t need years. And Ridge himself, Zende pointed out, once had the office upstairs while Thorne was down in the basement. That is a favoritism charge aimed at the man who collected on it first.

Is Zende Going to Logan on Bold and the Beautiful?

He told Ridge he was, but spoilers say he is not going quietly. On Monday, October 12, Zende contemplates his future while Dylan tries to defend her actions to the Forresters; her side is that she passed along a message and lent an ear. On Tuesday comes the ultimatum. No spoiler says whether Zende Forrester Dominguez stays at Forrester or still walks into Logan once Dylan is safe, and the preview has Katie dangling one more lure: a chance to work with Hope again.

Here is the part nobody else is putting together. Zende quit because RJ was handed a line, yet when he finally holds the cards, spoilers say he does not spend them on a title or a corner office. He spends them on the woman Electra wants gone, the one whose push got him through the Logan meeting Electra overheard. Forrester has been here before: it fired Will in June, and Logan had him on the team within days.

Will Asks Dylan to Move In, but She Walked Out Once Before

The tease that Will Spencer asks Dylan to move in comes from spoiler buzz, not a network line. The confirmed beat is Wednesday, October 14: Will expresses his true feelings for Dylan. Chatter puts the move-in ask later this month, along with Will leaning on Katie Logan Spencer to hire Dylan at Logan. He first said Dylan should work there on September 28, and he has been pressing his mother ever since Will drew his hard line with Katie.

Here is the history that makes it juicy. Dylan already lived under Will’s roof once, when she had nowhere else to go. On April 14 she moved out, saying the stay was “just supposed to be temporary” and “I have an opportunity to prove myself at Forrester.” If Zende Forrester Dominguez saves that job, Will is asking a woman who no longer needs rescuing. If he fails, don’t be surprised if she says yes in a heartbeat.

Logan has worries of its own. Hope Logan Spencer frets about her next Logan line on Tuesday, the Logan team gets unexpected news on Wednesday, and on Friday Brooke Logan makes an appeal to Katie. The preview has Brooke telling Katie and Hope she is more certain than ever that they are out for revenge.

Is Zende a hero for saving Dylan, or a quitter making demands? Tell us in the comments right here.

Every twist in the Forrester and Logan war is laid out in everything coming up on Bold and the Beautiful.

Zende Holds the Cards and Spends Them on Dylan

We are calling this one for Zende. He told Ridge the truth to his face, named the favoritism out loud and still found a way to protect the one person who stuck her neck out for him. Ridge can grumble about loyalty, but he needs a seasoned designer more than he needs Electra’s revenge.

Our bet: Dylan keeps her desk, Electra seethes, and Logan keeps the light on for Zende anyway. Will’s move-in ask lands sweeter if Dylan is still a Forrester employee when he makes it. Hero or hostage taker? Pick a side on our Facebook page.
