B&B HOT PLOT: Ivy Forrester Is Running a One Woman Wrecking Crew and Nobody Sees It Coming…

IVY FORRESTER STOLE A LETTER AND PLANTED A BROKEN NECKLACE AND HAND DELIVERED RJ TO ELECTRA FORRESTER ALL IN THE SAME AFTERNOON

TL;DR: Ivy Forrester is not protecting Electra Forrester on The Bold and the Beautiful. She is choosing who Electra ends up with. She stole a letter, staged a breakup, and engineered a meet-cute with RJ Forrester in the span of one episode, and nobody at Forrester Creations has any idea what she is doing.

This Was Not an Aunt Looking Out for Her Niece

Let’s walk through what Ivy Forrester did on Tuesday’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful because when you lay it all out, it stops looking like concern and starts looking like a conspiracy. Step one: Ivy had already stolen the letter that Electra Forrester wrote for Will Spencer. That letter was Electra’s attempt to fix things between them after the mess with Dylan. Ivy intercepted it. Will never saw it. Step two: Will accidentally snapped the necklace Electra gave him. He groaned and walked out, leaving it behind. Ivy watched the whole thing. Step three: instead of telling Will the necklace broke, instead of picking it up and putting it somewhere safe, Ivy placed the broken necklace on Electra’s desk. Right where Electra would find it. Right next to the empty spot where her letter used to be.

So when Electra walked into that office and saw the letter gone and the necklace in pieces, what was she supposed to think? Exactly what Ivy wanted her to think. That Will read her letter and responded by snapping her necklace in half. That it was over.

Electra started sobbing. And Ivy stood in the doorway and watched.

Then She Sent RJ Forrester Directly to Electra

Here is where it goes from manipulative to surgical. Ivy followed Electra to the showroom, confirmed she was sitting there alone and crying, and then walked into the office and told RJ Forrester that her poor niece was going through a tough time because of “this grifter Dylan.” Then she asked RJ to go into the showroom to find a diamond she supposedly dropped.

There was no diamond. There was a devastated Electra sitting alone, believing her relationship was over, and RJ walking in like the answer to a prayer she did not know she was saying. He found her weeping. She showed him the broken necklace. He held her. And Ivy made all of it happen.

This is not an aunt who is worried about a bad boyfriend. This is a woman who decided that Will Spencer was not good enough, that Dylan was a threat, and that RJ was the man Electra should be with, and she built the entire scenario from scratch. She engineered a breakup and a rebound in the same afternoon.

Ivy Has Been Doing This for Weeks

This is not new behavior. Ivy has been hiding in the bushes outside Will’s beach house watching Dylan. She made Electra cancel her dinner plans with Will so that Dylan would end up eating alone with him instead. She has been whispering in Electra’s ear about Dylan being inappropriate while simultaneously creating the exact situations that make Dylan look bad. Every single move Ivy has made has been designed to drive a wedge between Will and Electra while pushing Electra closer to RJ.

Meanwhile, RJ already told Carter Walton that Electra has captured him like no other woman ever has. Carter reminded him that she is Will’s girlfriend. But Ivy does not care about that. Ivy has already decided the outcome, and she is building it one stolen letter and one fake errand at a time.

Someone Is About to Catch Her

The weekly spoilers tell us that Daphne Rose sees something she was never meant to see on Thursday. If Daphne catches Ivy in the middle of one of her schemes, Forrester Creations is about to have a villain reveal that nobody saw coming. Ivy has been playing the concerned aunt so convincingly that not a single person in that building suspects her. But the walls are closing in. And when Electra finds out what her aunt has been doing behind her back, the fallout is going to be spectacular.

Ivy Forrester is not a protector. She is a puppeteer. And the strings are about to snap.

WATCH THIS: Did Brooke go too far?

@soapoperamag Brooke really stood in Katie's face… and said "no one important knows who you are" and then CLAPPED. IN HER FACE. Called her company a wannabe Forrester line. Said she's desperate and using Eric. These are SISTERS. Blood relatives. The Logan family is in SHAMBLES. #BoldandBeautiful ♬ original sound – Soap Opera Magazine
