At Brooke’s, she and Ridge ogle each other as she stands in her lingerie before the fire.
He runs his stubble against her cheek and she sniffs at him before reminding him they can’t do this.

Laughing, Brooke asks him not to tell Taylor about this.
She touches his hand and tells him it would be silly for him not to stay with all the love they have between them.
Hope arrives at the door and watches them through the window.
Brooke tells Ridge it’s likely best if he spends the night at Eric’s.
When he calls her Logan, she almost melts.

After she takes a deep breath, Hope pops up and throws a robe at her mom, ordering her to put it on.
“You’re supposed to be friends with Taylor! How could you?” she demands.

She’s seen this too many times.
“I have not made your mistakes…I am nothing like you mom! I’m not!”

Hope runs into his arms and insists nothing is going on.
She was just telling her mom how much she loves their life together and she won’t let anyone come between them.
In his office at Forrester, Thomas finishes sketching out another design for Hope and then rubs his chin, thinking of her.
He keeps drawing as he recalls promising Hope he wouldn’t mess up this time.
When he finishes the design, he’s sure Hope will love it.
Thomas keeps drawing until his father interrupts.
He remembers when he used to be inspired to design for hours and hours.
Looking at the sketch, he tells his son he knows he’s got something when it flows like that.
Ridge tells him he’s good and on the right path. His support means a lot to him.
His father loves him and is glad he’s there.
