Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) was tricked into revealing his true intentions on ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’. Bested by Hope Logan (Annika Noelle), scorned by his faux bride, Zoe Buckingham (Kiara Barnes), and reviled by nearly everyone who was gathered for the intended wedding, Thomas dropped tears of actual sorrow and then left through the front door of his grandfather’s house.
Those who know Thomas in this fictional version of Los Angeles, California, and viewers who’ve been watching him since he returned with his son from New York, following the death of Caroline Spencer (Linsey Godfrey), expected excuses and then a bolt from the failed nuptials. Past instances of conflict avoidance had Thomas lying low for a short period of time and then returning.
But childhood friend Vincent Walker (Joe LoCicero) was alienated through this ‘Thoe’ wedding scheme and Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) isn’t standing by his son this time. So, what will Thomas do now?
The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Long Period Of Absence
Atkinson has been killing it on B&B for a year. He became the recast of the character after Pierson Fode (Thomas) was last seen on the show in 2018. So, it’s reasonable to believe that the writing staff could put this alter ego into a period of hibernation.
That move would be drastic, while also establishing an assumed comeback storyline. In that Thomas could truly be remorseful, or be bent on seeking revenge against everyone who he believes betrayed his trust.
Sometimes villains meet their apparent end. So, Thomas could meet his fate in some form of gruesome fall that goes beyond Brooke Logan’s (Katherine Kelly Lang) push off the cliff, or Hope’s push into the vat. He could also be brought back from the dead at some point in the future if an endgame climax happens.
B&B Spoilers – Another Temporary Departure Followed By Snap-back
Thomas could wall himself off somewhere, subsist for a while, and then plan revenge against his perceived enemies. Whatever snap-back he would devise likely would involve attacking multiple people in what would likely lead to this character’s write-out.
Great daytime villains, as this character is, aren’t easy to develop. In this instance, Thomas has a long history on the show, through multiple actors, including being SORAS’d into adulthood.
Choosing to shelve Thomas, through a longterm hospitalization, or incarceration would likely mean that Atkinson would be taking a hiatus from the cast, or leaving. The actor and the character he plays seems too significant at this point in B&B’s history for that to happen, but change is constant in the soap world.
The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Redemption Storyline Would Be A Twist
A real redemption storyline would be refreshing. Atkinson and his colleagues played the dark Thomas angle to the hilt. Why not present something different now?
Even Douglas Forrester (Henry Joseph Samiri) has turned away from his dad. So, no one would believe the man who cried wolf in this proposed scenario. That alone would make for an interesting comeback story, as Thomas would have to live an entirely different life and do so for an extended period of time in order to slowly gain trust.
Alternatively, Thomas could play the hero in a soapy scenario where disaster ensues and he saves many character’s lives. That super-charged revitalization would be plausible if it was written as well as this arc has been to-date.

Excellent conclusion for Thomas’s storyline for now. Well done, writers! Keep up the good work!
Like yea bold needs a break may be they will cancel it til this virus is handled but the NCAagon take the soap operas I read
I think bold needs a break a big one so yall gon turn lil Douglas evil and mean and with brooke and Bill that lil kiss quinn gon put shauna up to use it over brookes head what many times that bitch kissed ridge he kissed her girl you and quinn need a hobby besides destroying familes you want to hurt brooke but it gets to Katie like are yall thinking writers then I writers all that Katie and Bill went he through she almost died he told her how much he loved her really writers why are yall recycling characters and going back and fourth on ridge finds out he waht take it like yall think but Katie will be the one to be concerned about and Will then I just read will bill leave Katie for Brooke stop!stop! Take a long break bold and the beautiful and think long and hard about this one its not just about Katie its his lil son Will to stop.this stop thats brookes nephew I would hope she wouldnt hurt him I know in the past she made a mistake and slept with hope boyfriend and bridgets the first one was dumb as hell how the . fuck you mistake hope boyfriend for ridge please
But this in some way would be a breakthrough for thomas he could save lil Douglas from hurting folks and doing something stupid he could change his ways fall in love with a real true woman to love him back I dont think he enjoyed playing the evil thomas all the time I dont know I know . this if bill tries to break up with Katie for Brooke I’m done and if shauna gets ridge I’m out like none of these storylines make sense at all even Sallys is crazy how a damn doctor misdiagnose you like that ?so is she gon still die or live ?
I knew it oh shit I kept looking in douglas eyes abd look8ng at him oh shit it appears he rob belike thomas and I knew it I kept listening to him and watching how he hung around hope he want want nobody to take her from him he will take after thomas I hate this yea?they putting it in the storyline but that’s what they get hope should have given him to steffy but they treat him so odd steffy and ridge like I can see the fakeness in wanting to raise Douglas I don’t think I want to watch if he becomes worse than thomas
I think thomas will retaliate against hope and Zoey and Liam and his son he is sick so will probably do something bad
Does this Mean Hope’s Gonna be a Mother to Beth Now ??? This Show has Lost it’s way!!! Done!!!
Brooke and bill again for goodness sake NO!!! Brooke what is wrong with you maybe you should have theropy sexual addition (not being able to stay with one man) along with bill he could have therapy as well who hasn’t brooke slept think of your sister and will for once not yourself gee that would be a change I don’t understand why these women need men brooke needs to have a good long look at herself Steffi is strong can be independent ceo of a company she doesn’t need a man
Shauna go home
I hope thomas redems himself he plays his part brilliantly see if he can play a good character for a change
Can we get back to fashion dress designs run way shows running of a company with a little drama on the side
Maybe thomas and Steffi fighting over the ceo position that would be good to see that would be one hell of a show down
