B&B Plot Twist: Does Electra Have a Secret Dark Side?
In a surprise twist on The Bold and the Beautiful, Electra revealed that she was the one who called the authorities on Luna. She wanted her archnemesis gone for good, proving she’s not as sweet as she seems.
Key Takeaways
- Electra called the police before Katie and Ridge.
- She has no problem taking on Luna.
- Electra could be channeling her inner Forrester.
- There’s also the possibility that Electra could be hiding a dark side.
Electra’s Turnabout
When Electra (Laneya Grace—7 things to know about her) first joined the show, she was introduced as Ivy’s (Ashleigh Brewer) niece, a sweet and innocent aspiring jewelry designer. She nearly crashed into Will (Crew Morrow) at Forrester Creations, and the rest was history.
The two fell in love rather fast. But Electra was trying to escape from her past. She had no idea that her friend Remy (Christian Weissmann) wanted her all to himself. He thought he could finally get what he wanted, which was love.
Electra rejected many of Remy’s advances. Every time he felt rejected, he would leak deepfake nudes of her onto the internet. Electra didn’t know it was Remy until she came face-to-face with his mural dedicated to her at his apartment.
At the time, she seemed like a girl who needed a knight in shining armor to take care of her. Will saved Electra’s life and fought with Remy before he was sent into police custody.
But then, something in Electra changed. Though she didn’t feel confident in the bedroom, she felt confident enough to take on Luna (Lisa Yamada), who is a persistent threat to their relationship.
She had no problem with shoving Luna and punching her out, despite the fact that she’s a crazed psycho. And now, Electra smugly admitted that she called the cops on Luna.
Not So Sweet As She Seems?
B&B viewers once wrote off Electra as a “prude” and “wallflower,” who made Will’s situation all about her. She was blamed for painting herself as the victim. But now, they noticed that she has an inner bad girl.
Is Electra channeling her inner Forrester? Maybe she’s relying on the strength of Steffy (Jaqueline MacInnes Wood—who welcomed her fifth baby boy) to guide her through this difficult situation.
It’s also possible that Electra could be hiding a dark side of her own. That could be why she was drawn to Remy in the first place. Maybe she does like the bad boys.
She might become secretly obsessed with Will, especially since they consummated their relationship. Electra might’ve convinced herself that she’s the only woman for him.
A character rewrite or pivot isn’t out of the question. Luna was also introduced as sweet and innocent when she first joined Los Angeles. Now, she has a rap sheet that’s as long as the state of California.

B&B Fans Conflicted About Electra Calling Cops on Luna
On The Bold and the Beautiful‘s October 13 episode, Electra revealed that she was the one who called the cops on Luna. She assured Luna that she would never be in Will’s life. It didn’t take long for viewers to react to this shocking reveal.
Key Takeaways
- Deputy Chief Baker showed up at the Spencer estate to inform Luna that she was under arrest for kidnapping and attempted murder.
- Luna claimed she couldn’t go to jail because she was carrying a Spencer baby.
- She assumed that Will, Bill, and Katie called the cops.
- It turns out that Electra was the one who wanted Luna to break up with her boyfriend.
- Fans have been divided on this scene.
Kudos For Making the Right Decision
During the episode, B&B viewers took to X, formerly Twitter, to share their thoughts and reactions. Most of them applauded Electra (Laneya Grace) for doing what needed to be done for weeks.
She was the one who called the authorities. Luna (Lisa Yamada) has been living comfortably at the Spencer estate for a few weeks now since they learned that she was pregnant with Will’s (Crew Morrow) child.
They had her take a paternity test to confirm that she’s carrying his baby. The test results came back, and it doesn’t look good for Will, who wants nothing to do with Luna or their baby. (Does Luna really want Will or forever freedom?)
Meanwhile, Electra wants to get rid of Luna for good. She took matters into her own hands by calling Deputy Chief Baker (Dan Martin) to the mansion. He arrived on time to arrest Luna.
Some fans were impressed. They had to applaud Electra, who’s usually quiet and reserved.
One fan wrote, “COME GET YOUR BADDIES CHAIN ELECTRA!”
Someone else posted, “I am team Electra🩷🩷🩷#TeamElectra.”
Another person commented, “Bravo to Electra for being the one to finally get that annoying smug look off Luna’s face by being the only one seemingly sensible enough to call the police.”
Making a Huge Mistake?
Meanwhile, other fans think Electra made a huge mistake. She could destroy her chances at a future with Will by subtly declaring that she doesn’t want to be a step-mother. (Will Katie turn on Electra after the major call she made without consulting her?)
One fan argued: “Idk why Electra thinks she ate… you’re still gonna be a stepmother.”
Someone else thinks the scene could’ve used more punch. She likely beat out Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Katie (Heather Tom), both of whom were ready to call the cops on Luna.
“I get that Electra was supposed to come off as a boss for calling the cops on Luna…but like she prob only beat Ridge by 2 min, or Katie. So that kinda takes the impact of it out for me,” someone else posted.
Another fan warned: “And Electra, this is how you lose your man!”
