The Bold and the Beautiful is pitting Brooke and Katie against one another again, but not over a man this time. On the contrary, the siblings

are now vying for the use of their surname, Logan. And based on the promo that CBS just dropped for the week of December 29-January 2, things are about to get even uglier than Brooke implying that Katie just wanted to “sponge” off of her reputation. (As if!)

 

 

As you’ll see in the video below, Bill’s “missus” shrugs off Brooke’s claim to the moniker, sniffing that Logan is nothing more than Ridge’s pet name for his on-again/off-again destiny. Snide remarks notwithstanding, Brooke and Ridge are sure that they have they upper hand in the fight; Forrester Creations apparently holds a trademark on the word “Logan.”

That is, Forrester Creations did at one time hold a trademark on “Logan.” But somewhere along the line, maybe when Ridge was ping-ponging between Brooke and Taylor for the zillionth time or pushing his father out of the company he founded, he forgot to renew the license.

Translation: Katie can go ahead and start practicing her cat-that-swallowed-the-canary grin, because as Liam informs her and Bill, “Logan” is up for grabs. And you can bet your subscription to Vogue that Team Spencer will be locking it down for themselves faster than you can say… well, anything!

Also on tap for the first week of the new year, the mystifying Dillon story continues. In the December 26 episode (recapped here), Will got a peek at the young woman’s car and deduced that she was living out of it. Without revealing to her what he’d surmised, he asked her to spend the night in the apartment adjacent to the beach house. Coming up, we glimpse Dillon watching a shirtless Will from her window.

Is Hayes’ teacher just grateful to Electra’s boyfriend for doing her a kindness? Or could we be heading for another obsession storyline? We’d love to say that nah, Bold & Beautiful wouldn’t go straight from Luna being fixated on Will to Dillon being fixated on him. But then again, the show did go from Li sneaking Finn’s body out of the hospital to her sneaking Luna’s body out. Bold & Beautiful loves a redo.
