But when you know people are going to be turning in for the big conclusion of a storyline, that is the time to make sure you’re hooking them on a secondary story! In this case, we spent the entire week talking about Sheila even as her storyline was heading toward a climax. Worse, it’s one of the most basic tenants of serialized storytelling: Keep the audience hooked. Back to Basicsīold & Beautiful‘s writers once again missed a golden opportunity, and it’s one they routinely pass on. I did love, however, the look of complete and utter distain - mixed with vague disinterest - on Bill’s face as Sheila collapsed at his feet. Somehow, the only person who managed to track her there was Bill. She ran all the way to… the alley behind the restaurant where her arrest was unfolding.
Perhaps the most jaw-droppingly silly moment of the week was when, despite being surrounded by more people than attended Ridge and Taylor’s last attempt to tie the knot, Sheila dodged them all. I mean, his presence in this entire storyline has been pointless, so me generously allowing him to take the blame at least gives him an opportunity to bluster about now nothing’s his fault, right? She Went Thataway! And last week, when Sheila dashed over to Deacon’s to show him her engagement ring, agents were stationed outside and able to follow her. Why, exactly, were there no FBI agents poised to pounce when Bill got Sheila’s confession? Everybody knew that the frustrated billionaire wanted to wrap this puppy up ASAP. I’ll be interested to hear y’all’s takes. Deputy Editor Charlie Mason, however, thought it was borderline brilliant… right down to the similar outfits. This clear recycling of footage caused a bit of debate in my household. Today, Caroline - no… I meant Sheila went over Bill’s balcony 😜😂 #BoldandBeautiful /c6jmteAQPl The first? “Why are they giving that away! Imagine how much fun it would be for that to have come as a surprise!” The second was something many fans thought… and one beautifully illustrated via the tweet below. When CBS aired the promo showing Sheila fall off the balcony after arguing with Bill, I immediately had two thoughts. Somehow, the same guy who was able to spend months hiding his true motivations from everyone - including Sheila - couldn’t figure out a way to keep her from putting the pieces together long enough for the FBI to arrive. The fact that her husband-to-be was doing everything but say, “Speak into my hidden lapel mic” seemed to completely evade her.īill didn’t exactly prove to be the sharpest pencil in the box, either. That was proven this week when seconds after Bill slipped a ring on her finger, she decided to tell him all about having killed Lance two decades ago.
Last week, Agent Chen suggested that for a criminal mastermind, Sheila was pretty damn gullible. Bold & Beautiful's Taylor Returns With an Earful for - Plus, a New Love On the Horizon? “I Confess”
