In addition, Steffy (Jaqueline MacInnes Wood) and Hope (Annika Noelle) reflected on the past and what they hope will be their futures while Liam (Scott Clifton) struggled to give Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) the benefit of the doubt. Now, let’s dig a little deeper into what exactly happened.

Paul “Hollis” Hollister Flirts With Brooke

At Il Giardino, Trattoria Rustica, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Taylor (Krista Allen) gushed over the new selections and the delectable food they were enjoying.

Hollis (Hollis W. Chambers) visited the table, promised the ladies gratis desserts, and let it be known that he was still sweet on Brooke. Not even the flirty antics of a young blonde at a nearby table could turn his head.

Taylor good-naturedly teased her bestie and wondered why she wasn’t taking advantage of the lovestruck waiter. After all, their last date had been a qualified success.

Brooke got to spend an evening with a gorgeous guy, they’d laughed together, and they made out, and Brooke herself admitted that it had been hot.

Hollis returned to the table and took an opportunity to praise the majesty that is Brooke. Taylor scurried away from the two using that old chestnut about a patient calling her for a chat, an act which Hollis appreciated greatly.

Taking Taylor’s spot, the besotted man informed Brooke that he hasn’t been able to stop thinking about her since their last encounter and confessed that he’d never experienced a kiss like the one that they had shared.

Brooke was flattered but unconvinced. Still, Hollis persisted. He asked Brooke to accompany him on a proper date to a little restaurant in Topanga. He promised that they would be totally casual, with no pressure. It’s just that he really believes that there’s a lot more between them that could be, and should be, explored. “One kiss from Brooke Logan just isn’t enough.”

B&B Recap: The More Things Change…

Back at Forrester Creations, while Steffy did her utmost to convince Liam that he had nothing to worry about where Hope and Thomas were concerned — and boy was he worried — Hope found herself lost in lusty thoughts about Thomas.

After a slightly awkward run-in with the man of her fantasies, Hope found herself in deep conversation with Steffy, who pointedly wondered how things were going outside of work — particularly with Liam.

The two agreed that Thomas did seem to be a changed man and granted that Liam was probably never, ever going to accept that fact…not that either one of them could really blame him.

Talk then turned to the “tough times,” AKA the times when they were feuding over Liam. Luckily, as Steffy was so quick to point out, she found her “forever” in Finn (Tanner Novlan), just as Hope’s forever was clearly Liam. Hope agreed, then found herself drawn to a nearby photograph of Thomas.

Thomas Forrester Insists That He’s A Changed Man

Speaking of Thomas, he was joined by Liam, who wanted a chat. Thomas swore that he was no longer obsessed with Hope in any way, but Liam found that a little too convenient “given the last time…and the time before that.”

Thomas insisted that the only things he was focused on was his work at Hope For The Future and his relationship with Hope as his boss and the co-parent of his son.

“I am not gonna be going after Hope in any way. Making any moves on her, all right?” In fact, even if Hope were to come on to him he’d say no. That seeming barb didn’t go down a treat with Liam but Thomas said that Hope was committed to Liam and to Liam only.
