Bold and the Beautiful delivers Melissa Dylan (Sydney Bullock) showing up for Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) while he is reeling from Electra Forrester’s (Laneya Grace) rejection and all the accusations from the Forrester family that are just over the top.
And all of this means that it’s finally time that Dylan is going to get a real shot with Will. We’re going to talk about what Dylan does to win Will’s heart now that he’s single and pretty much at rock bottom.
Bold and the Beautiful: Electra’s Gonna Freak
And let’s talk about what Electra does when Will and Dylan inevitably move on together. So, this week we saw Dylan felt so horrible for Will. And up at Bikini Bar when Jessica asked what happened with Eric Forrester (John McCook), we saw that Dylan was totally supportive. She’s team Will. She told Jessica that everything that went down at Bikini Bar was a total accident. And Dylan said Will did not mean to hit Eric.
But of course, Electra wouldn’t listen. And Dylan also told Jessica that Electra told Will it’s over. And Dylan said that her heart broke for Will. And then we saw Dylan going to check on him at the beach house. And of course, he was understandably distraught. Also, side note, it’s summer in LA. Why is she wearing that big coat? They’re all in coats and long sleeves right now in the middle of summer. Anyway, with Electra officially cutting Will loose and saying she’ll never get back with him, it definitely looks like this is Dylan’s big chance to get with Will.
And of course, he’s crushed right now, but he will get over it soon enough. And Dylan is Will’s main cheerleader right now. Even Katie Logan (Heather Tom) chewed out Will. So, he’s got no choice but to accept that he and Electra are truly over and done. And right as Will is circling the drain, Dylan walks through his door and she’s going to be incredibly understanding. So, I think she is finally going to get Will all to herself romantically, but when Dylan does, I think Electra is going to lose it on her.
Bold and Beautiful: Dylan’s Path to Will’s Heart
So, the first step to Dylan winning Will as her boyfriend is to show that she’s loyal to him and that Dylan supports and stands up for Will. While Electra, meanwhile, is always looking for reasons to doubt and mistrust Will. That’s not how Dylan operates. Electra believes everybody else before she believes Will. However, Dylan’s not like that. She even told Jessica that Will begged, but Electra wouldn’t give him the benefit of the doubt. And Jessica said Dylan would have done that if she was Will’s girlfriend. And I agree. And then Dylan says she knows Will’s heart and knows it’s good.
And throughout all this, Electra has been so much more loyal to R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) than she has to Will. Not once has Electra been loyal to Will that I’ve seen. And Electra never fought for Will. Dylan, though, is the complete opposite. She’s always been there for Will. She even stepped back and Dylan respected and supported his relationship with Electra, even though Dylan wanted Will for herself. So, another thing that Dylan has got going for her is that she’s not a spoiled, selfish nepo brat like Electra. As far as I’ve seen, Dylan is quite unselfish and she’s had hard times, so she appreciates good times.
Electra is the Worst on B&B
Electra, meanwhile, is a total brat. If her life isn’t going perfectly, she wants to blame others and gets pouty. Even when she knew Dylan would be homeless if Will tossed her out, that’s what Electra still wanted. She did not care if her supposed bestie Dylan was sleeping in her car. And Electra bullied and terrorized a poor homeless girl. It doesn’t get more selfish and awful than that.
Will needs a woman who’s loyal and appreciates him. And Dylan fits the bill on both of those. And honestly, Will seems a glutton for punishment, running around panting after Electra. And she’s got him so torn up that Will is saying sorry for things that aren’t his fault. Dylan would never do that to him.
Bold and the Beautiful: Job Loss and New Opportunities
Another thing I expect as she makes a play to have Will as her guy is that Dylan is going to get fired from Forrester Creations. I think because she won’t trash Will and she shows loyalty to him, that’ll be a big problem for the Foresters. Plus, Dylan is now reporting to Electra at work and helping with the jewelry line. And even though she told Will that they’ll never be together again, I’m sure Electra still considers him her territory. And we’ve heard her throw out ultimatums to Dylan before about how she can live her life, where she can live, and who she can date. So, I’m betting that Electra will do it again. And she’ll tell Dylan she can’t be involved with Will or else.
I expect Dylan is going to be okay with sacrificing her job, especially if it means she can be with Will, even though she’ll worry about affording her apartment. But I expect Katie and Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) will likely offer Dylan a job for staying loyal to Will and not siding with the Foresters against the Spencers.
Dylan recently mentioned that she should go work at Logan with Will and his family on Bold and the Beautiful. So, we know she’s open to it. It’s crossed her mind. Dylan is a stand-by-your-man girl for sure, and Will and his family will appreciate that. And then Electra can sit around pouting and thinking about that.
Dylan is Meant for Will on B&B
Another thing in favor of Dylan being the woman that Will rebounds with is their incredible chemistry. Back when he first let Dylan move above the garage when she was homeless, she and Will had these deep talks. They really connected. And of course, Dylan’s gorgeous. And it was clear that Will found her attractive. But at the time, that’s when Ivy Forrester (Ashleigh Brewer) was manipulating everything. And Will recently acknowledged that he and Dylan have great chemistry. And if it wasn’t for him still wanting to be with Electra, he told Dylan he would love to explore that with her. And now that Electra has told Will it’s over forever, I do think he’ll be ready to explore that sizzling chemistry with Dylan.
In real life, Will would need time to recover. But on a soap, they often jump instantly from the last romance to the next one. And of course, that would make Dylan very happy. Another thing that could work in Dylan’s favor is that the Spencers may encourage Will to move on with her ASAP. I think Bill and Katie will love that Dylan cares about Will and will be impressed that she stood up for him. And most of all, a big selling point is that she is not a Forrester.
Dylan is Good for Will on Bold
Dylan is a good person. She’s sweet. She’s pretty. She’s unselfish and loyal and extremely different from Electra. I think that Dylan is genuine and the kind of woman that Will needs in his life. I think Dylan will always put Will first, unlike pouty, whiny, bratty Electra. And I think that Bill and Katie will see that and they’ll approve.
Meanwhile, I expect the Forresters are going to exert pressure on R.J. and Electra. I expect Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye), Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang), and Eric are going to pressure Electra to get over Will and to just get with R.J. And you know, Electra is going to be dealing with R.J. all over her constantly in her ear.
I think he will always be in Electra’s office. And R.J. will tell her she needs to get over that dirt bag Spencer and go out with him. And of course, R.J.’s going to keep at it. The Forresters will keep at it and Electra will cave and start dating him. So, we’ll see how it goes, but I fully expect Dylan and Will to be the hot new couple soon. And honestly, I’m here for it.
