It’s looking bad for yet another Bold & Beautiful character as questions about Tom’s death lead to the kind of discovery that has fatal consequences!

As far as everyone knows, former addict Tom fell off the wagon and landed himself in the morgue. But not everyone is completely sold on that story. One person in particular is finding it tough to swallow, apparently having gotten to know Tom a lot better than we knew!

To the outside world (including viewers), it appeared that Tom and Hollis were nothing more than co-workers. But given that Hollis has been so disturbed by Tom’s passing that when he tried making cocktails today, they could only be shaken — not stirred — it appears they were closer than we imagined. This led to Deacon suggesting Tom go hang out in the storage room, which is where the waiter/bartender found Tom’s bag.

Now, anyone who’s watched for a while knows that nothing good happens in that dang storage room. For a while, it was where Deacon slept before his fortunes changed and he became Il Giardino’s owner. (How, exactly, is a question we’re still asking!) It’s also where he and Ridge took turns trying to beat Brooke out of one another’s systems in a particularly brutal display of testosterone overload.

Now, that storage room is about to do its thing again. Why? Because that’s where Hollis has discovered Tom’s backpack. And tomorrow, the guy who once hoped to make a play for Brooke’s heart is going to find something that will spin things in a whole new direction… and threatens to put Hollis at the top of the killer’s hit list!

So what’s in that backpack that’s so darned incriminating? We suspect it will be those love letters that Tom wrote to Poppy all those years ago. You know, the ones he referenced having received back, unopened?

Given that a secret source whispered to us that Tom’s death wouldn’t be the last as the soap’s summer mystery unfolds, something tells us that what Hollis discovers will make him the next victim. Which leaves us wondering… is it just a coincidence that as he’s discovering evidence-holding baggage in the storage room, Poppy and her so-happy-it-hurts little family is only a few feet away enjoying some of Deacon’s highly-rated pizza?

As we anxiously await the next twist, take another look at our list of suspects to see if you can suss out the killer!
