Hope Today (Spoilers)

I totally agree. She’s like a kid who knows their parent is right, but is pushing back because she doesn’t want to admit she was wrong.

Exactly.

Shown on screen, Steffy blackmailed Bill. Yet, she told Ivy (and Liam too) that “blackmail is a crime”. Per Steffy’s own words, she IS a criminal cuz she has blackmailed.

That's what I saw and what I've been seeing anytime anyone questions her "judgment."

I know viewing is pretty subjective but today Hope gave some strong signals. She is rattled by Thomas's revelations but in speaking with Brooke once again she defended Thomas and praised him. She told Brooke she is not ending it with Thomas and even hinted there may be more to their relationship.

Either Bell is setting up a huge fall for Hope and the destruction of this relationship or this hurdle is the test that propels Hope even closer to Thomas.

I have learned not to think I know what is coming but it doesn't seem to be doom and gloom at this point.

Because she’s delusional..in total denial right now. I think deep down, she’s slowly starting to think that Brooke and Liam were right, but she’s too stubborn admit it to herself..that’s why she’s still fighting Brooke and rebelling. Thope ain’t gonna end well..because they’ve already been happy having their lust fest for so long, so there’s only one way to go for them and that is implosion. IMO.

Yep. Exactly this. Too proud to admit she was wrong. Plus she has too much to lose now if she admits she was wrong. She'll have to also admit how far she fell. I predict a major downfall for Hope when realization finally hits her.

Yep. A major downfall is coming for Hope, I agree.

That is what I'm voting happens. I foresee something major happening that will finally change Hope's mind about Thomas.

So the same old rerun, but this will be the final one? How creative of the writers.

Probably not the final one, lol. But to be fair they haven't really been in a relationship before. And I think most of us know that creativity is pretty much a foreign concept on this soap.

No, it won't. They never stop re-running. This is the formula with Thope. It's the Coyote and the Roadrunner.

that's unlikely, nothing he's done thus far (lying about her daughter, calling cps pretending to be her mother, running down emma, etc) has changed her mind

Except, this latest Emma death revisit ain't over yet. Hope still can't and won't say she loves Thomas..she ain't exactly jumping his bone today either..nor has she accepted his proposal wearing the ring on her finger or planning a wedding date either. LOL.

I wouldn't be so sure. She's being defiant in front of Brooke but Hope is very, very deeply affected by the news Thomas gave her. Now it remains to be seen. Will her defiance win or her common sense? If her defiance wins then Thope is doomed because she's just going to be with him to thumb her nose at Brooke. If common sense wins, Thope is still doomed. So either way, Thope will crash and burn. I'm certain of it.

It is subjective, and she was giving off strong signals in the other way. She's started to reel and act confused again just like when she was fighting her attraction to Thomas. That's what I see. It reminds me of all her doubletalk gaslighting about the bad boy and trying to fight being like Brooke.

Now she's gonna fight against losing the security of the devotion Thomas gives her. It's just what Liam and Brooke keep saying. Hope won't be able to reconcile being with Thomas.

My gosh, even with all that yelling at Brooke, which she always does to deflect attention from herself, she still can't manage an "I love him."

I understand your point but I don't think it would be appropriate for the first time Hope says she loves Thomas it's to Brooke and not Thomas.

I think a lot of people blurt out the truth and realization to other people first. It's natural. And she didn't even stammer as if she were about to say it but wanted to "save" it. In my view, the truth waits for no utterance.
