‘Bold and the Beautiful’: Li Clobbered but She Wakes Up Baiting Sheila as a Friend

Bold and the Beautiful had Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) knock out Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) as Finn started to wake up. John Finnegan (Tanner Nolan) appeared at the mercy of his demented birth mother once Li was out cold on the CBS soap.

When John Finnegan’s adoptive mom wakes up, Sheila and Li share a hug. Still, looks could be deceiving. On Friday’s B&B, Li wakes up and becomes a sudden friend to Sheila — or does she?

Bold and the Beautiful: Li Finnegan and Sheila Carter Hug it Out?

If Finn wakes with his memory intact, then he’s likely to break out in fear. That’s if the memory of Sheila Carter shooting him floods back. But if that’s the case on B&B, Li won’t let him become a sitting duck.

She once said she’d do anything to save her son. So, buddying up to Sheila looks like one of the hardest things she has to do. But it looks like she has no choice if she wants to keep both Finn and herself safe.

His birth mother put his adoptive mother’s lights out with a hard knock to the head. But on Bold and the Beautiful, Li Finnegan wakes up and it looks like that knock in the head twisted Li’s brain in some way.

She starts to refer to Finn as “our son.” Meaning she’s willing to now acknowledge Sheila as his mother too.

But it looks like Li recognizes Sheila could do some real harm to her after putting her out cold. She needs to care for her son, so this could be a ploy on his adoptive mother’s part.

Next, the reawakening of John Finnegan could go a few ways. Plus, the mindset of his two mothers seems to flip flop.

B&B Spoilers: Sheila Takes Charge of Finn?

Now that Finn has risen from the ashes, his birth mother gets her first look. But she’ll likely try to take charge of him.

B&B already showed the first sign of control issues with the demented woman’s blow to Li’s head. So, is this a heartfelt hug or is it Sheila Carter falling into Li Finnegan’s trap?

Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Sheila needs help keeping Finn alive. So she incorporates the help of her long-time partner in crime. But who might that be?

So far, the only devious character from her past on the show is Mike Guthrie (Ken Hanes), the prison guard. Lt. Baker (Dan Martin) said that a guard helped her escape prison. So it could be Mike who helps.

Or could this be Jack Finnegan (Ted King), Li’s estranged husband? B&B established that Jack kept it under wraps for decades that he is John Finnegan’s biological father.

He also kept it a secret that he once had Sheila Carter in his life. Fans still know very little about Finn’s biological father’s backstory. But when Li suddenly starts acting like Sheila is a good friend, it looks like there’s a reason for this.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Li & Sheila Battle it Out?

So, Sheila Carter needing help seems to suggest that she takes charge of John Finnegan’s care at some point. But this means Li, who was caring for Finn from the get-go, takes a back seat or is gone.

Bold and the Beautiful spoilers put these two moms in another scuffle within the next two weeks. So, there’s a chance that Finn’s convict mom overpowers the mom who’s a doctor. But for now, it looks like Sheila Carter plays along with the woman who shot her son.

From the expression on Li Finnegan’s face when the escaped prisoner hugged her, it looks like being nice to her enemy is not genuine. It looks like it kills Li to be nice to the woman who shot Finn.

So, once another scuffle takes place, this might bring another twist. This could put Sheila on the run with Finn. If that is the story plot in the cards.

This could suggest that the escapee on the run gets out of town with some help. But she may do this with Finn in tow. She’s a nurse by trade so she has the skills to care for him.

Besides, Finn called out to his mother this week on Bold and the Beautiful. So this suggests that he’s getting better. So far it sounds as if Sheila Carter makes John Finnegan her business. Then somehow she manages to take Li Finnegan out of the equation on upcoming episodes of this CBS soap.
