On the July 12 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, spoilers tease that the contents of Tom Starr’s backpack are revealed. Does this suggest that Tom’s death was no accident? Oddly, Li and Jack withhold information about the night Tom died from Finn. What are they hiding? Meanwhile, Bill gives Luna an extraordinary gift. Is it a sword pendant to match his own? You don’t want to miss this crucial episode.

What’s Li Got to Do with It?

We are all chomping at the bit to find out what’s inside Tom’s (Clint Howard) backpack. This item may be more than just a memento; it should give us a clue as to who would want Tom dead. At first, that seemed to be his ex-girlfriend, Poppy (Romy Park). Despite his insistence, she told Tom there is no way Luna (Lisa Yamada) is his daughter and warned him to keep away from them.

However, Poppy seemed genuinely surprised and mournful when she learned Tom had died. In contrast, Poppy’s sister, Li (Naomi Matsuda), is acting a bit strangely. She and her ex-husband, Jack (Ted King), hide details about the night Tom died after his concert from Finn (Tanner Novlan).

Why would Li and Jack want to keep certain information from Finn? It was funny how they both wound up at the show. Did anyone notice that Li didn’t flinch when Tom collapsed on stage? Wouldn’t a doctor usually rush to help?

Bill’s Benefits

Meanwhile, Poppy and Luna are still making the most of their new life with Bill (Don Diamont). Bill goes all out and gives Luna an exceptional present. The gift may not have just a hefty price tag but symbolic meaning. Luna will surely be overwhelmed with gratitude for Bill’s generosity of spirit. Their father-daughter bond just continues to deepen. But what if Luna really isn’t Bill’s daughter?
