Amanda Kloots (“The Talk”) is about to make one of her dreams come true when she appears on the Wednesday, February 21 and Thursday, February 22 episodes of “The Bold and the Beautiful,” playing Lucy, a mom who takes Steffy’s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) daughter Kelly (Sophia Paras) on a play date with her son, Danny (played by Kloots’ real-life son, Elvis Cordero).
Speaking with Stephanie Sloane in the latest “Soap Dish” column featured in the latest issue of TV Guide Magazine, on sale now, Kloots shares that “When I was a little girl, my mom and sisters and I would watch soap operas on a daily basis,” adding, “It’s quite thrilling to be a part of one.”

Although she couldn’t share storyline details in her interview, Kloots did note to Sloane that she’d love to return to the soap in the future, saying, “It’s such an incredible job.” As for her four-year-old son doing the acting thing, Kloots points out, “I don’t think he understands yet that he’s acting. He knows his lines, [and] he improvs. He’s hilarious.”

As for details on what’s about to go down, here’s what we can tell you: On the Wednesday, February 21 episode of the daytime drama series, Lucy takes Danny and Kelly for lunch at Il Giardino, which is where Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) works as a waitstaff member. Despite being forbidden to interact with Kelly as per Steffy’s wishes, Sheila approaches Kelly anyway, which later leads to an all-out brawl between Steffy and Sheila on the Thursday, February 22 episode that even Deacon (Sean Kanan) and Finn (Tanner Novlan) find it hard to break up. Things get so bad that it’ll take both men until at least the Friday, February 23 episode to get things under some control. But keep in mind, this is just another step in the Steffy/Sheila war that is far from over!
