At Forrester Creations, Hope picks up a flyer for HFTF and spots an old picture of her and Thomas.
Liam pops up. She assumes he’s there to gloat about Thomas being gone.
He claims he’s not there for that so she guesses he’s there to lecture her.
She pushes him to go ahead and rub it in. Liam says he doesn’t get off on watching her hurt.
Hope says it’s a little late for that.

Hope wishes Thomas had taken some time to think more before taking off but Steffy had to stir things up and destroy what they had.
She’s sure he doesn’t want to believe it, but Steffy is responsible for a lot of this.
If she’d accepted the proposal, everything would have been different now and his sister wouldn’t have gotten into his head.
Liam may not want to hear it but she really does love Thomas.
She’s not sure if they would have gotten married but they’ll never find out because of Steffy.
She apologizes for oversharing and he offers to help with Beth if she needs it.
Liam won’t lie. He’s relieved that Thomas is out of their daughter’s life and he thinks she’ll find this is a good thing in the end.
He assumes another man will come into her life, one worth saying yes to.
In the design office, Luna is flashing back to waking up in Zende’s bed until he and RJ lumber in.
They tell her about Thomas jetting off to Europe last night.
They fill her in on Thomas leaving with Douglas after Hope rejected him again.
Thomas will no longer be working on the line and that means they all need to step up for Hope.

But they can see why Thomas wouldn’t hang around for her.
Zende says it’s hard to wait for someone who can’t give themselves to you.
Luna thinks maybe time and distance will help.
RJ thinks Thomas and Hope are done.
Zende goes on about how synchronized Hope and Thomas were in terms of vision.
This change means they all need to step up and try to give her what she wants.
Luna wants to help and RJ is eager for his cousin to see how talented she is.
Luna looks uncomfortable as Zende smiles at her.
Zende says everyone knows how amazing Luna is and it will be his pleasure to work more closely with her.
