So Rome is about HFTF ? (Spoilers)

ClemaxDna @, 6/1/2023, 9:22AM (337 days ago)

I didn't have time to watch the episodes this week (will catch up this weekend). But from what I've read in the recaps, this Italian fashion show is all about HFTF. Thus, the main protagonists must be Hope and Thomas, the person who runs the line and the lead designer. Have more details been given this week ? Is it ALL about HFTF, or will there be other things?

All I hope is the payoff will be huge. Bell is taking his time with this Hope-Thomas emotional affair. In April he said Hope's amorous feelings would burgeon, I think this part has been told well (with the heartbeat racing, the flashbacks and daydreams sessions, the looks, the bonding scenes, the tears and every other emotional moments). I hope Rome won't fizzle out. A slow build up like this one should lead to an epic showdown. The actor who plays Liam said the show owes the audience a chance to see if it'd work between Thomas and Hope. And that what Liam finds out in Rome will change everything for him. I think Liam's character really needs a brand new start and Hope would benefit as well. Rome better be explosive and life-changing. This show desperately needs drama and a brand new direction for these characters.

Well there were pics of Brooke with a dress too, so there may be some other things but yes, it'll be a HFTF fashion show! I'm sure the payoff will be great! I'm rather optimistic! ;-)

After the episodes this week, Brooke and Ridge look to be a big part of the Rome trip with what appears to be a reunion on the horizon. Almost every character is talking about Ridge and Brooke and that Rome is the city of love.

But the fashion show is the primary reason why they go to Rome. And from what I'm hearing the fashion show will be a HFTF show. I have seen too many pics of Thomas and Hope (in at least 3 different places in Rome, with 3 different clothes) to think they won't share many scenes together there. I am sure Brooke and Ridge will reunite but this will be the secondary storyline. Neither Taylor or Deacon are going so there can't be much angst for Bridge, once they've reunited.

Not what I want to see at all anyway. My wish would be more Liam overhears something and realizes Hope has been lying to him. They discuss thing and find a common agreement and decide to end the marriage. That's what happens to a lot of couples IRL. They realize how unhappy they make each other, realize they don't belong together and when it's time to move on, they make a mutual decision. Unless Bell was straight-up lying in his sweeps, Hope's feelings for Thomas are profound and aren't going anyway. Liam is never going to be happy and secure in his marriage again once he learns this information.

I doubt it will go that far for now. There is no future for Thomas and Hope if they commit adultery and Liam catches them. The only outcome would be Hope begging him for forgiveness for the next 3 months and possibly another who's the daddy scenario. No thanks. Ideally, Liam will overhear Hope professing her love or saying kind things to Thomas, maybe initiating a kiss and Thomas looking uncomfortable. This is all Liam needs to realize what's really happening.
