The two women argue over Finn, who showed signs of waking up. Although they called a truce, Li angered Sheila by trying to call the police. A scuffle broke out, and Li fled in fear for her life. A high-speed car chase ensued, and on the June 22 episode, fans watched Li’s Jeep crash into the water.

How could Li Finnegan return to ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’?
With Li “dead,” Sheila has taken over caring for Finn, who is waking up. Finn will be in for a shock when Sheila’s the first face he sees upon opening his eyes. Finn’s first instinct is to get away from her and reunite with his wife, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood).
Sheila will do anything to keep Finn away from Steffy; however, her plan will be foiled by Li. When Li returns, she’ll want Sheila to pay for her crimes and will have her arrested. With Sheila returning to jail, Li will assert herself as Finn’s only mother. Yet, Li and Finn’s relationship might be strained.
While Finn is grateful to Li for saving him, he’ll be upset she didn’t tell Steffy. Speaking of Steffy, she’ll also be furious Li let her believe her husband was dead. As Li mentioned, she blames Steffy and the Forresters for Sheila coming into their lives. If Steffy thought Sheila was the mother-in-law from hell, she hasn’t seen Li’s dark side.
