Hope demands an explanation in recap for June 24, 2024. We begin today at Forrester Creations, where Hope (Annika Noelle) is stunned that Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) and Paris (Diamond White) are engaged. Douglas (Henry Samiri) wonders if he said something wrong, but Thomas assures him he’s fine.
Hope is in shock that he proposed to Paris Buckingham, but Thomas says that’s exactly what he did and that’s why he’s back. In the design office, Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) tells her father that it’s “commendable” that Hope has been so optimistic about Hope for the Future, but Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) truly believes that it’s possible to turn the line around. Steffy begrudgingly agrees with her father and says she’s not going to fight him on the issue, but she points out that the line hasn’t been the same since Thomas left.
Ridge agrees with Steffy about how the line isn’t the same, but he says that doesn’t mean it can’t be the same with Zende and RJ — particularly Zende, given his experience. Steffy reminds her father that Hope’s in charge and her judgement has been “iffy” lately. “Hope is losing it,” Steffy continues.
She’s been going downhill ever since Thomas left. Thomas knows Hope is shocked, and Paris reminds him that they’ve been keeping their relationship under wraps. Hope wants to know how it happened.
Paris explains that she’s been working at Forrester International, and Thomas explains that they started hanging out and the res.
