Just when Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) was saying his vows to Zoe (Kiara Barnes), he sees Hope (Annika Noelle) with his son Douglas (Henry Joseph Samiri), wearing the wedding dressed that he designed for her “Hope for the Future” collection. Thomas instantly calls it off with Zoe, who slaps him for hurting her, and rightfully so.
Thinking that Hope made this choice to marry him (so that they can be a family with Douglas), Thomas is in for a rude awakening. Hope exposes Thomas for everything he has done. She reveals to him that Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) had told her and Liam everything. Once Hope confronts Thomas about all of his wrongdoings, he is in denial and lies to his father, Ridge (Thorsten Kaye).
Zoe accuses Thomas of using her and his Douglas as a means to get with Hope, his true obsession in life. “You messed up and you messed up big time,” Zoe tells Thomas, who remains in denial. “Everyone here knows exactly who you really are,” Zoe expressed. “There is no way in hell you will ever take advantage of us again.” Liam (Scott Clifton) informs Thomas that it is “game over” and that everybody already knows and he shouldn’t embarrass himself any more than he already has.
To cap it all off, Douglas shocks his father by telling Thomas that he wants to be a family with Liam, Hope, and Beth since that’s where he feels most comfortable. Ridge is angry at Thomas because he lied to him repeatedly, and Hope lets Thomas have it again, which he most richly deserved after all he put her, Steffy and Liam through.
The Verdict
