On the Monday, November 4 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, spoilers tease that Brooke feels stunningly betrayed when she learns that Steffy and Ridge fired Hope. The rest of Forrester Creations remains in shock and disbelief at Hope’s dismissal as Charlie escorted Hope out of the building for good. It feels like anything can happen now, and you don’t want to miss what unfolds.
Shown the Door
Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) did the unthinkable on Friday: She fired Hope (Annika Noelle). True, Steffy had been threatening to kill her line, Hope for the Future, for what seemed like ages. However, we never thought she would actually fire Hope, even before consulting Ridge (Thorsten Kaye). Daddy dearest backed Steffy up along with Taylor (Rebecca Budig), who put in her two cents despite not being a Forrester employee. Poor Hope didn’t even have a chance to explain.
Where Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) was at the moment of this unceremonious firing remains a good question. However, she finds out the ugly truth soon enough. Brooke will be aghast. How could Ridge and Steffy make such a mean-spirited decision against her daughter without letting her tell her side of the story?
Of course, Brooke knows that Hope was trying on lingerie not for Finn (Tanner Novlan) but for Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor, who won your vote for October Performer of the Month). Will Brooke tell Ridge the truth in order to clear up this mess? It’s possible that she won’t because she fears Carter would lose his job, too.
Bad for Morale
If Brooke learns that Steffy and Ridge committed this vicious act against Hope with Taylor watching on, she will feel 100 percent betrayed. Brooke already felt that Steffy had it out for Hope and all the Logans. (Take a look back at when Brooke had her own company, Logan Designs. ) How could Ridge go along with this decision without discussing it with her first? This will most certainly create a major conflict between Brooke and Ridge.
The Forrester staff will have difficulty processing this and may feel very uneasy. Hope was well-liked and respected, and nobody ever expected to see her escorted out of the building. Steffy probably didn’t realize how much this would affect employee morale. Will Forrester Creations be the place that everyone wants to work for anymore?
