Hope should have heeded her mother's advice on Wednesday, Oct. 30's episode of The Bold and the Beautiful. Brooke told her that she needed to cool her jets when it comes to romancing Carter in the office but it went one ear and out the other. Sure, we get it. Hope's feeling the spark of having feelings for a man that isn't already married but if she had listened to Brooke, she wouldn't have found herself in a compromising position with the last person she needed Steffy catching her with...Finn.
Did the record just scratch? Let me back up. See, after Steffy left the Cliff House, Finn found the tablet she'd left behind. He decided to pop past Forrester Creations instead of phoning her. For some reason he chose to drop the tablet off in the Design Office instead of the CEO Office, but just go with it because the plot is plotting.
Finn thought he was in the room by himself. What he didn't know was that Hope was behind the changing screen. She'd been daydreaming about Carter a few minutes prior. Hope had teased her new man earlier in the episode about the lingerie on the rack in the room and thought it'd be nice to surprise him by wearing one of the pieces.
When she came from behind the screen, she thought she was going to be giving Carter a show and was horrified to see Finn instead. It was a misunderstanding and she tried to explain but wound up tripping and they both fell onto the desk behind them. Cue Steffy's entrance. Understandably shocked, she firmly told Hope to get off her husband.
It was just yesterday, at least for us, that Steffy had warned Hope that she better stay away from Finn or she'd find Hope for the Future canceled, so this is a terrible look. While Hope could try to explain to Steffy that she wasn't coming onto Finn, she likely won't be able to get through to her. Not to mention it would mean revealing her situationship with Carter. They'd both wanted to keep their growing bond a secret but now would definitely be the time to sing like a canary to save herself. But will she?
According to the spoilers, Steffy's set to take "a bold executive action" on Thursday, Oct. 31 that'll reverberate through the company. Perhaps she doesn't just end HFTF, she may also fire Hope. If that's the case, the building is about to shake because on Friday, Ridge is supposed to back Steffy. Fireworks are going to be going off, and I cannot wait for the drama coming our way!
