In addition, Taylor sounded some serious alarm bells. Now, let’s dig a little deeper into what exactly happened.

Caught In The Act

Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) swung by Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Finn’s (Tanner Novlan) to catch up and wrap his daughter in a big bear hug. How is she? How is it being back? More importantly, what about the Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) of it all?

Steffy relayed that she has no intention of letting that “monster” separate her from her family ever again, and assured her dad that she was fine. That settled, how is Ridge doing? Steffy heard about the fashion challenge and she’s surprised that Eric (John McCook) and RJ (Joshua Hoffman) bested him. (Oh, if only she knew!)

Sometime later, Steffy headed to Forrester Creations and was greeted by the sight of Hope (Annika Noelle) and Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) getting hot and heavy in the design office. And it wasn’t so much that Steffy was furious about the horseplay (Taylor had already warned her to be prepared), but she was concerned about the horseplay taking place “in a shared space.” What were the two thinking?!

Soon, Thomas was called away on urgent business leaving Hope and Steffy to have “a word alone.” The latter demanded to know what the former was up to. How could she jeopardize everything? Especially Hope For The Future?

Hope refused to say sorry, and merely offered that she was following her heart. But don’t get it twisted. She’s not saying that she loves Thomas. But she does love what they’re doing together. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge.

Rising Concerns

Across the hall, Taylor (Krista Allen) literally scowled upon finding Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) in the CEO’s office but decided to stick around to chat. And by chat, we mean disparage Hope. What is she thinking? How dare she play with Thomas’s mind and toy with his affections. And all to pump up her own ego.

Brooke took exception to that swipe but Taylor pressed on. Clearly, Thomas was Hope’s rebound. Equally clear was that Hope was finally going through a “rebellious phase.”

When Ridge arrived, Taylor doubled down. Hope’s sending Thomas mixed signals is not only selfish, it’s potentially dangerous. She’s worried about her son, about the progress he’s made. And she wants Brooke and especially Ridge to be equally as concerned.
