This week's episodes of The Bold and the Beautiful kicked off with the aftermath of Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) breaking into Taylor's (Rebecca Budig) bedroom with a massive kitchen knife. Sheila believed that Taylor was under attack from an unknown male, but Taylor begged her to drop the knife. While the women sorted out the situation upstairs, Deacon (Sean Kanan) successfully hid in the bushes and made his way back home. Taylor managed to talk Sheila down and convince her that it was a moment of self-pleasure that she walked in on. However, as Sheila left the house, she noticed the Il Giardino box in the living room.

Despite Deacon's quick return home and faking being asleep to avoid speaking to Sheila, it wasn't long before she put the pieces together. Sheila noticed the sand in Deacon's boots, and there was no record of a delivery to Taylor's home for the pizza. Meanwhile, Deacon pleaded with Hope (Annika Noelle) to maintain the story that they had dinner, so Sheila would be none the wiser. Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) was furious with her mother after learning how close she could've come to being stabbed by Sheila, and she once again took matters into her own hands to protect Taylor from her worst impulses.

Steffy summoned Deacon to Forrester Creations to confront him about their near brush with death and made it clear that any romantic entanglement with Taylor needed to cease immediately. She later went to her mother's office and phoned security to ban Sheila from the building. After Steffy left, a fully disguised Deacon showed up to see Taylor, convinced that there was no chance he was followed. Sheila used a distraction from security to get into the building in a nurse's outfit, and once Deacon slipped out, she made her move. Slamming the door behind her, "Nurse Carter" asked, "Are you ready to take your medicine, Taylor?”

The other storyline that took center stage this week on The Bold and the Beautiful was Ivy's (Ashleigh Brewer) ongoing desire to push Electra (Laneya Grace) into RJ's (Brayan Nicoletti) arms. On Thursday's all-new episode, Electra finally noticed the secret move her aunt Ivy pulled behind her back. With Electra distracted, Ivy used Electra's phone to post a social media photo of her and RJ, which Will (Crew Morrow) ultimately saw and helped him and Dylan (Sydney Bullock) grow even closer. Surprisingly, Ivy openly admitted to posting the photo, remarking that it was a cute moment worth sharing.

Ivy and Brooke (Katherine Kelly) separately made it home to Electra and RJ that they were not blood-related, paving the way for the young Forresters to be together. RJ confided in Brooke about his growing feelings for Electra, and Brooke was elated that her son had found another reason to stay in Los Angeles longer. Ivy continued to tell Electra how incredible RJ was for her, and that Will was the same as his father, Bill (Don Diamont).

On Friday's episode, Electra and RJ spoke in one of the design offices about their growing feelings for each other. Brooke and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) had nothing better to do, so they watched the interaction between their son and his "cousin" from outside the door. Brooke called her husband over and proclaimed, "Look, Ridge. It's happening!" Ridge quickly ushered his wife away from the door, so RJ and Electra could have some semblance of privacy without his parents hovering over him. With fate (and Ivy) pushing them together, Electra and RJ kissed for the third time.
