Hope has words of encouragement for her mother on Thursday, May 7’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful. In contrast, Carter’s set to issue a warning to Steffy and Ridge over a decision they’ve made that will have consequences.

- The context behind said advice.
- The reason Carter’s wary of Ridge and Steffy’s choices.
What Happened Previously on B&B
B&B has circled back to Hope’s (Annika Noelle) involvement in stealing Forrester Creations with Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor). While Liam (Scott Clifton) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) want to keep that event in the past. Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) said Hope is lucky to have a job at FC after the stunt she pulled. But at the time, Hope was able to move Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) into a position she had wanted her in. CEO of Forrester.
When Steffy and Ridge regained control of their family’s company, they assumed their previous roles as co-CEOs. Nearly two years later, Hope is still of the mind that her mom should be leading FC with Ridge, not Steffy. Brooke feels the same, but she’s yet to push the issue with her husband. The status quo at the company has been that it’s a family operation run by a father-daughter duo. How other people feel about that dynamic hasn’t factored in.
The Forresters tend to lean on each other for advice. But Carter gives his when he feels they’re not considering perspectives other than their own. As a trusted family friend, his insights are valued. However, they’re not always heeded. This was a major motivator for why he stole the company with Hope. Carter acknowledged that he was wrong and made amends for his behavior. But, as he told them back then, not acknowledging or supporting the Logans’ contributions is a short-sighted business move.
