B&B Spoilers: Hope Logan Spencer and Zende Team Up to Take Down Steffy’s Devastating Couture Power Grab

HOPE LOGAN SPENCER FINDS A DEVASTATING ALLY AS ZENDE TURNS ON STEFFY

TL;DR: On the April 28 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Hope Logan Spencer and Zende are blindsided in the Forrester design office when Steffy benches Hope For The Future for couture. Then Brooke walks in fresh off her blowout with Katie, and the Forrester loyalty cracks wide open.

What happens to Hope Logan Spencer on Tuesday’s B&B?

Yes, Hope Logan Spencer (Annika Noelle) gets sucker punched at work, and this time she’s not taking the hit alone. After Monday’s brutal meeting where Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) shoved Hope For The Future to the back burner so couture could “save” Forrester Creations from the Logan launch, Hope is in no mood to play nice. She’s been benched, talked down to, and reminded that her contract gives the company the right to crush her dream whenever it pleases.

Now the design office becomes a war room. Zende Forrester Dominguez (Delon de Metz) walks straight into the fight, fresh off learning his work on Hope’s line just got pumped with the brakes too. He has been quietly designing alongside Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) on Hope For The Future from the moment Thomas started phoning it in from Paris. Zende is fed up, and he’s not hiding it.

Will Zende really side with Hope against Steffy?

Yes, and the alliance has been a long time coming. Zende has been the most overlooked designer in that building for years. Every time he gets close to a real opportunity, the Forrester family closes ranks and reminds him he’s the adopted grandson, not a blood heir. Now Steffy is doing it again. Steffy insists this isn’t personal, that emotion has to come out of the equation, that profit and couture are the only things that matter while Katie is gunning for them across town.

Could this mean Hope and Zende are about to flip the entire fashion war? Don’t be surprised if these two leave that meeting plotting a defection bigger than anyone at The Bold and the Beautiful sees coming. Reading between the lines of Steffy’s “it’s not personal” speech, it sure sounds personal to the only two people in the room who actually do the work.

What does Brooke want with Hope after the Katie blowup?

Brooke Logan Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang) walks back into Forrester carrying the wreckage of her sister-fight at Logan. Katie Logan Spencer (Heather Tom) just told Brooke she’s “yesterday’s news” and that the new Logan fashion queen is officially crowned. Brooke wants to vent. She wants her daughter on her side.

Problem is, Hope is not lining up to trash Katie. She has too much going on at her own desk to dunk on her aunt. Hope would rather rip into Steffy, and Brooke is about to find out exactly how badly Forrester Creations just torched her daughter’s career.

What’s Next for Hope Logan Spencer and Zende?

Could this mean Hope Logan Spencer is about to walk out of Forrester with Zende in tow? Don’t be surprised if dinner at Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) and Katie’s place becomes a quiet job interview. Katie already has a glaring problem at Logan, namely a brand new fashion house with no second collection, and Hope For The Future plus a hungry, talented Zende would solve both of those headaches in one phone call.

If history is any guide, Steffy is going to learn the hard way that telling two creatives “be grateful” while shelving their work is the fastest path to losing them. Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) is going to land in the middle, just like he always does, and even Eric Forrester (John McCook) and Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) might not be able to put out this fire. Tune in to The Bold and the Beautiful on CBS to watch this Forrester mutiny ignite.
