In today’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, we witnessed a mix of drama and tension among the characters. The episode began with Hope arriving at Forrester Creations’ main office, where she admired a model wearing a trendy boho chic dress. She then joined the Hope For the Future team, including Ridge, Thomas, and Zende, as they discussed their latest design ideas. Thomas commended Zende for his creative input, while Ridge praised Hope for her decision to bring Thomas back on board.

At Il Giardino, Liam and Wyatt talked about both business and their family dinner with Bill and Ridge. Liam shared that he and Hope had spent the previous night together, prompting Wyatt to tease him. Liam asked Wyatt to stop, explaining that he and Hope truly needed some quality time as a couple, and they hadn’t “connected” like that in quite a while. Liam also mentioned that, afterward, Hope seemed somewhat uneasy and went straight to her mother’s house. “By the time I got there, it was tense. Hope was tense.”

Back at Forrester Creations, Brooke entered the design office and was greeted by Taylor. Brooke mentioned having dinner alone with Ridge, which led Taylor to tease her about her cooking skills. Brooke admitted she had ordered food, and Taylor expressed relief that they could finally have a conversation about Ridge. They shared a hug, and both appeared contemplative.

Later, Hope and Thomas found themselves alone, discussing their designs and the distinctions between ‘hippie’ and ‘boho’ fashions. Hope observed Thomas passionately explaining the differences, and she remarked how nice it was to see him so enthusiastic.

Returning to Il Giardino, Liam confided in Wyatt that he was unsure about the dynamics between Hope and Brooke, but he knew Hope was trying not to follow in her mother’s footsteps. “There’s a small part of Hope that doesn’t want to turn into her mother, maybe?”

In the main office, Ridge informed the Hope For the Future team about Sheila’s ongoing recovery from her heart attack and her inevitable imprisonment. Ridge complimented Hope on her wise decision to rehire Thomas and noted that they made an excellent team.

Near the end of the episode, Brooke approached Hope to inquire about any feelings she might have for Thomas. Hope, caught off guard, denied any romantic feelings and insisted that Thomas had changed for the better.

As the episode concluded, viewers were left with several questions: Will Brooke confront Thomas about his feelings for Hope? Will Liam discover the truth about Brooke and Ridge’s relationship?
