Hope/Carter

Over in the design office, Carter is happy Hope is there. She lays a guilt trip on the COO about all her hard work going to waste. (Make sure to check out our next week B&B spoilers, here!)

Carter couldn’t go on with the takeover, it was eating him alive. She debates, saying that he led the company in a better direction.

Brooke says she can get why Carter feels haunted. Brooke looks Carter in the eyes and says it’s not wrong to feel remorse. 

The COO insists that HFTF is safe, so he made a deal with the Forresters. The fashion designer reasons that Ridge and Eric might have agreed to that deal but Steffy didn’t.

Hope thinks they are all going to lose their jobs, Steffy will want payback. Carter and Brooke have faith in Ridge that he will honor his word.

Ridge/Steffy/Eric

Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye), Eric Forrester (John McCook) and Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) all toast their coffee cups in the office.

They are so happy to have their company back! Steffy says they need to decide if Hope, Carter, and Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) should continue at FC. The men remind the “President” that they made a deal with Carter to protect HFTF.

Ridge and Eric remind Steffy that they gave Carter their word that Hope could stay. Steffy says nothing is in writing and feelings change. She insists that they need to be punished, especially Hope. 

Carter, Brooke, and Hope enter the room. Carter says he should have seen the right path. Steffy makes a comment about how he should have come to that realization a lot sooner. Steffy declares the trio committed treason

Daphne/Zende

Daphne and Zende cross paths in the design office. They talk about how different the energy is in the building now.

The Nose says it’s time to deal with the traitors! There’s supposed to be a big meeting this morning, the designer mentions. 

Zende suspects Carter must be relieved. The topic turns to Brooke. Zende says the only reason Brooke even took the job in the first place was to get Carter to do the right thing.

The designer adds that Brooke is important to the company. He assumes Daphne must own a few pieces of Brooke’s Bedroom.

The Nose has at least a dozen! Brooke might be safe, but not Hope. Zende reminds Daphne that he’s the lead designer for Hope’s line. 

Daphne doesn’t want anything bad to happen to Zende. The designer knows she likes Carter. She thinks the COO deserves better than Hope.

Hope Logan’s Loss

Steffy lectures the trio about their crimes against the Forrester family. Eric wants to move forward. Steffy does NOT want to move forward.

She decides that Carter can have the COO position back. Hope asks about her line. She is told that the men made their promises, but she did not.

Hope brings up that there was an agreement. Steffy says that Brooke can stay, but Hope is a disgrace. The line is shelved!

Carter chimes in but Steffy refuses to listen. Steffy rants about Hope being immoral and selfish. Hope brings up her accomplishments, but her rival is not impressed.

This is about honor and respect. Hope is called a “vacant vessel” who doesn’t even sketch her own designs. She’s no longer needed. Hope says they’ll lose Carter, too, because they are a team.

The Forresters remind the COO that they have forgiven him once, but it won’t happen again. What will Carter decide?
