This gets Liam’s dander up. He asks if her brother is okay.
She assures him that Hope and Thomas are a successful team. He’s still not sure that Thomas can be healthy. Will he go down the path he always does and become obsessed with his wife?

He’s happy that she’s confident, but things can go wrong. What will it mean for Hope then?
He worries about being too controlling. She assures him he’s not and Hope knows it.
Liam thanks her for the good talk. She tells him he can talk to her any time.
