On the July 2 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, spoilers tease that a surprising death sets off a summer murder mystery arc. Does Poppy kill Tom? Or does a cruel fate befall a different B&B character? This is an episode you absolutely don’t want to miss.
A Desperate Poppy
If anyone appears to have a motive for murder, it’s Poppy (Romy Park). Miss Sweetness-and-Light quickly turned fierce and threatening when Tom (Clint Howard) appeared in town.
Poppy seemed willing to do anything to keep Tom from spilling the beans that he is Luna’s (Lisa Yamada) father, whether it was true or not.
Since arriving in LA, Li (Naomi Matsuda) has warned people about her sister, much of which concerned Poppy’s “gold-digging” ways. However, Li never said that Poppy was outright dangerous.
We should take note, though, that Li distanced herself from her sister even when Poppy wanted to be close. Does Li know more about her sister’s character than she has said so far?
A Gruesome Discovery
Il Giardino employee Hollis (Hollis W. Chambers) is slated to appear in this episode. He had gotten chummy with Tom as he prepared for his show.
Does Hollis notice that Tom is missing and go looking for him — only to find him dead?
Also this week, Li’s ex-husband, Jack (Ted King), and Justin Barber (Aaron D. Spears), who plays Bill’s (Don Diamont) attorney, appear on the canvas. Is it possible that Jack, instead of Tom, is killed accidentally or intentionally? Or that Bill knows what happened and sets Poppy up with some legal representation?
