00:00Three more designs added in a while.
00:10Home for the future?
00:12Yeah, I figure we need some more options.
00:14Otherwise, we might have to start calling the line pray for the future.
00:18Well, I really appreciate your time, and I know you don't like being pulled away from couture.
00:22Yeah, I don't mind being the janitor.
00:23I can clean up someone else's mess.
00:26Especially if that means getting to work with my cousin.
00:28Aw, that's really sweet, Zenday.
00:33Of course I like working with you, Steffi, but I was talking about someone else.
00:39I've got a surprise for you.
00:43Hey, sis.
00:44Thomas?
00:46What?
00:46Come here.
00:47Nobody told me that you were here.
00:49That's because nobody knows.
00:51Except for this guy, Zenday, and now you.
00:54You know, I like to show up without warning.
00:56Keep them guessing.
00:57What are you doing here?
00:59Or do I have to guess that, too?
01:01Well, um, it's time, Steff.
01:06Time for what?
01:07It's time for me to contribute to Hope for the Future.
01:09Again.
01:10So, no honeymoon?
01:12Oh, we'll have time for that later.
01:14Liam and I have been super, super busy.
01:16Well, I mean, if there's anything I could do to help at all, just let me know.
01:19Thank you, Deke, but you have already been a really big help.
01:24I've been loving your ideas for Hope for the Future.
01:27Yeah.
01:28Yeah.
01:29Look, I know it's a bit disappointing that none of your designs have gone into production yet.
01:35A little.
01:36Yeah, but I'm trying not to read too much into it.
01:38I know I was only hired on a trial period, so...
01:40Don't worry, okay?
01:42This is very typical for new hires.
01:44And you have got good ideas.
01:46I'm not just saying that because I'm your sister.
01:49Your work is good.
01:50I'm glad you think so, but the question is...
01:54Is anyone else?
01:55I mean, I have to admit, I'm getting a little nervous.
01:58Getting a job here has been a dream of mine, but I'm starting to wonder if it's still just a dream
02:04or if I actually have a future.
02:06I've forced your creations.
02:08Thank you, Dunder.
02:11Yeah, I think all of them are going to work just number 10.
02:13Maybe it shouldn't be a silk.
02:15And then I turned around and my hair was on fire.
02:19It was crazy.
02:22Logan.
02:24Hi.
02:24Hi.
02:25No, no.
02:27What?
02:28Did you see any of the gowns?
02:29Because I need to finish this line.
02:31Well, I am actually trying to focus.
02:34I am.
02:35It's just that...
02:37I'm just worried about Katie.
02:40You should be worried about her.
02:41She's back with Spencer.
02:42It's bad news.
02:45God, can I do this?
02:47I mean, it's tempting.
02:48It's really tempting.
02:49Starting your own fashion house?
02:50I would hope so.
02:52I'd be good at it, too.
02:54I'd be damn good.
02:55You'd be amazing.
02:56You'll kill it.
02:57I mean, you've done it before.
03:00Think how much more experience you have now.
03:02You're older.
03:03Watch it.
03:05Wiser.
03:06Hmm.
03:08Walking away from Forrester after all these years.
03:10Katie, come on.
03:11Don't pretend like they've shown you any loyalty.
03:13They haven't.
03:14And you don't owe them any loyalty in return.
03:16Well, this is not just walking away from any old job.
03:21You will be quitting to become their competition.
03:24And you know damn well that you will give them a run for their money, and they'll know it, too.
03:30Come on, Katie.
03:31Do this.
03:32Set the fashion world on fire.
03:34Change it forever.
03:36I want this for you.
03:38And I think you want it, too.
03:40I know that you have strong opinions about Bill.
04:01Opinions that I share with anyone that's ever met the guy.
04:04Well, I believe that he's good for her.
04:07Besides, who doesn't like to see a family reunited?
04:11And I know Will's older, but I'm sure he's thrilled his parents are back together.
04:14I think Katie's right where she belongs.
04:20It's not a matter of whether I want to.
04:22It's whether I should.
04:23Hey, baby.
04:24Hey, should what?
04:26Um.
04:28You okay, Mom?
04:29Yeah.
04:29Yeah.
04:30More than okay, actually.
04:32Your father just offered me something, um, extraordinary.
04:36Okay.
04:37What is it?
04:38My very own fashion house.
04:40I get why you're concerned.
04:49But remember, you were hired for a reason.
04:53Because of your talent.
04:54Your portfolio stood out amongst all the rest.
04:56Everyone else here knows how talented you are.
05:00Okay.
05:01All right.
05:01I'll try not to worry about it.
05:04Of course, I'll worry a lot less when I finally see one of my designs up on the runway.
05:08And when that day comes, we will celebrate.
05:11But in the meantime, I need you to please be patient.
05:16Don't lose faith.
05:18Okay.
05:19All right.
05:22Zenday and I have been talking, and he's caught me up on everything.
05:25I told Thomas all about the portfolios that have been submitted, this search for another designer.
05:30Which is not necessary, if I come back.
05:32And if Zenday's willing to keep contributing.
05:34Hope for the future will be covered by the two of us.
05:36That's you, huh?
05:50Always the optimist.
05:52Yes.
05:52So?
05:54Katie's back where she belongs?
05:55You kidding me?
05:56He's going to disappoint her.
05:58That's Bill.
05:59That's what he does.
05:59It's going to happen sooner or later.
06:00I just hate that she put herself into that position again.
06:05The only good news is, when it does happen, and it will happen, she has you, and she has
06:10her work here.
06:12Well, she's not exactly thrilled with us right now.
06:14All right.
06:15You know what?
06:15This whole outside company thing?
06:17That was to help her, not to push her out.
06:18I understand.
06:20But I can see why it would have ruffled her feathers a little bit.
06:23So you know what I think we should do?
06:26We should compliment her.
06:28We should reassure her in the next couple of days.
06:32Okay?
06:32Sure.
06:33It's important that she knows she's valued and respected here at Forrester.
06:39So that's the decision.
06:41Whether to take your father up on his offer or not.
06:44To run your own fashion company?
06:46Talk about grand romantic gestures.
06:50In fact, I don't think anybody's going to be topping creating a fashion company for your
06:54bride.
06:55Because I believe in her and what she can accomplish.
06:58Which means so much to me that you wouldn't believe in me that much.
07:03I mean, it's a huge financial risk, too.
07:07Not really.
07:08I mean, I don't care if it's a fashion house or a snow cone stand.
07:11Whatever it is, you'll be successful.
07:13Well, I do have some ideas about healthier syrups, just saying.
07:16Okay, well, let's start with the fashion company.
07:19And if you want to transition to snow cones, we'll take a look at it.
07:23You know, if I do this, I will be putting everything I am into this company.
07:28Into making it a success and making you proud.
07:33I already am.
07:35So what's it going to be, Mom?
07:37Are you going to take Dad up on his offer?
07:39Going to leave Forrester Creations and start your own fashion company?
07:46You know, I'll just try to be patient.
07:52I'm just super stoked, you know?
07:55I mean, it feels like I've been waiting my entire life for this.
07:58And now that I finally have my foot in the door...
08:00You would like to try it for the whole leg?
08:04Exactly.
08:05Look, just trust the process, okay?
08:10You're here because you're talented.
08:11You got this on your own merit.
08:13That's something that I'm proud of.
08:15Even though Dad wanted me to play the I'm Hope's Brother card.
08:18Oh my gosh, it's just so silly.
08:21You didn't come here because of your connection to me.
08:24We asked for anonymous portfolio submissions and your work stood out.
08:28Which is far more impressive, by the way, than if you were only to be hired because of me.
08:33Well, I mean, that's something I want to continue to.
08:35Like, don't let my eagerness to get my designs into production influence any of your decisions when it comes to your line.
08:42Seriously, like, if you go with one of my designs, great.
08:47You know, I'll be thrilled, but I don't want any special treatment.
08:54Understood.
08:55But it's not if, it's when.
08:59I hope so.
09:01I hope I've been given a real shot at proving myself to you and to everyone else.
09:05And I just want to be the right designer for your line.
09:10I like your plan.
09:11I love your plan, but we already hired someone new for the line.
09:15Temporarily, on a trial basis.
09:17You guys are talking about Hope's half-brother?
09:20Yeah, Deke.
09:21He's pretty good.
09:22He's good, but he's raw.
09:23Yeah, he is green.
09:25No offense.
09:26We don't need him.
09:27With you back on the line, definitely not.
09:29No, Zendia and I together can handle Hope for the future.
09:32Come on, Steph.
09:33You have to agree, right?
09:34Right.
09:41Am I leaving Forrester?
09:48I don't know.
09:48I haven't decided yet.
09:49Well, you have decided that they don't respect you.
09:52Brooke respects me.
09:54At least she tends to.
09:55Okay, Brooke.
09:56Only have so much say, Katie.
09:58It's Ridge and Steffi in charge.
10:00Whereas you could be in charge.
10:02The one calling all of the shots.
10:04That's only if you decide to take Dad up on his offer.
10:06Okay, you work at Forrester, too.
10:08I mean, I don't want to do anything that's going to affect your future there.
10:11I'm not worried about any backlash.
10:13But this is your career.
10:15I mean, does that affect the way you feel about my decision?
10:19Look, I like it at Forrester.
10:21I get to see Elektra every single day.
10:23See?
10:24So that's very cool.
10:26And it's a good fit for now.
10:29But, Mom, I never want you feeling like you're being held back, especially by me.
10:33And if it's backlash that you're worried about, to that I would say, oh, no, Ridge fires me.
10:39And then I have to come work at Spencer Publications, the trillion-dollar company.
10:44So there are worse things.
10:46But none of that matters.
10:47Okay?
10:48Because if this is something that you are passionate about, then I completely agree with that.
10:53And I say go for it.
10:54Um, I hope it doesn't sound like I'm complaining.
11:04What?
11:05No.
11:06No, not at all.
11:07Okay.
11:08Good.
11:09Because I wouldn't want you thinking I'm ungrateful.
11:12Like, I know how lucky I am to be here, to have this kind of opportunity.
11:16And you want to make the most out of it.
11:22You want to see the ideas that you put down on paper come to life.
11:27Yeah.
11:27Believe me, I get it.
11:30I realize I'm fresh out of design school, and I don't have anywhere near the experience of someone like Zende.
11:37So it makes sense that his ideas get picked over mine, for now at least.
11:43Like, I adore Zende, and he is an incredibly, incredibly talented designer, and there is a lot you can learn from him.
11:49But, you know, his name is also Forrester, which does tend to give people an edge around here.
11:57Understandably.
11:57Yes, it is Forrester Creations, after all.
12:02But there is room for us Logans and Sharps, as long as you make enough space for yourself at the table.
12:09So just keep working hard.
12:12Keep submitting your designs.
12:14And you'll get there in time.
12:17And, at the end of the day, hope for the future is my line.
12:21So, while I mean it, when I say that even though you are my brother, there will be no preferential treatment, and I mean it, there won't.
12:32You're still my brother.
12:34And I'm going to look out for you.
12:39Oh, are you kidding me right now?
12:41Come on.
12:42Thomas likes to show up without warning.
12:44I thought you were playing a trick on me with that text.
12:46This is great.
12:47No, no.
12:47Your prodigal son is back.
12:49Uh-huh.
12:49And with a purpose, maybe?
12:53Oh, great.
12:53You texted him that, too.
12:55Well, he is my co-CEO.
12:57Ah, yes.
12:58Yes, I am back with a purpose.
13:00I'm ready to design again.
13:02You are designing in Paris.
13:03No.
13:04No, not really.
13:05I mean, look, yes, I'm designing, but I'm not designing specifically.
13:08Not for any particular line.
13:10And that's what I want to do.
13:11I want to work for Hope for the Future, along with Zenday.
13:14Thomas and I are a great team.
13:15We complement each other.
13:17You do.
13:17Mm-hmm.
13:18And I realize that right now you have a trial designer in place, right?
13:24But I don't think you need that.
13:25Not anymore.
13:27I think he's good.
13:27He's not great.
13:29Well, we need Graydon, right?
13:32I mean, look, now that Granddad has already stepped down, people need reassurance that Forrester
13:38is still Forrester, right?
13:41And what better way to do that than with me, along with Zenday.
13:45Come on, Dad.
13:46You know I'm right.
13:48Your search for another designer?
13:50That's over.
13:50That's where I need to be.
14:09Debuting the return of Hope for the Future.
14:12I mean, come on.
14:13Tell me it isn't good for business, right?
14:16Thomas Forrester's triumphant return.
14:20Or you can go with Deke, right?
14:21The pizza maker's son.
14:23That'll give you headlines, too.
14:25Not the headlines you want, but headlines.
14:26You don't need to be rude.
14:28I'm not being rude.
14:29I'm being honest.
14:29Look, he's a Sharp, right?
14:31He's Deke's son.
14:32This is a Forrester family business.
14:35And what better than to have two Forresters running it?
14:38Eric Forrester's grandsons.
14:40Both of us.
14:40Third generation designers.
14:42That's right.
14:42How do you think Hope's going to react to this?
14:45I'll handle Hope.
14:47Uh, you think that's wise, Steph?
14:49Yeah, Hope and I are at a good place.
14:51I'll get her on board.
14:52Not like we need to.
14:52If this is something Dad and I want, then we would do it, right?
14:55Is this something we want?
14:56I think it is.
14:57Uh-huh.
14:57I'm going to go talk to Hope.
14:59All right.
14:59I'm going to go backstage.
15:00I'll let you guys chat it out.
15:01Okay.
15:02Thanks, Dad.
15:06All right.
15:06Let me ask you something.
15:07Yeah.
15:08What about Paris?
15:10I mean, you love it there.
15:11And Douglas, he's just having a great time.
15:15Why would you destroy that for him?
15:16I'm not going to destroy that.
15:18He's still going to be having a great time.
15:19He's still going to excel there.
15:21I mean, Douglas and I will still have our life in Paris.
15:24And I will pop into Los Angeles when I need to.
15:26Look, I mean, I'm doing this with Zenday.
15:28And he'll be here all the time.
15:30I mean, come on.
15:31We are the future of Hope for the Future.
15:35Do you think that's what Hope feels as well?
15:42Hey, I got your text.
15:44You wanted to see me?
15:45Yes.
15:46Close the door.
15:46So, uh, what's this about?
15:55It is about your line.
15:57That's actually perfect.
15:58I wanted to talk to you about the relaunch.
16:01Zenday continues to do amazing work.
16:04Yeah, he's extremely talented.
16:05Absolutely.
16:06Um, which brings me to my next point.
16:10Uh, I know that we have been looking for additional help for the line.
16:15Um, and while Deke has a temporary position here, his portfolio was the most intriguing.
16:22And while he may be a little green, I do think that with time, he is going to become a brilliant designer.
16:29I think you're right.
16:30I think he does have a bright future.
16:32But we need to focus on today.
16:33We need to focus on right now.
16:34Okay, so what are you talking about?
16:42Thomas is in the building.
16:43He wants to return to Hope for the Future.
16:46Work with Zenday as your lead designer.
16:48And I talked to my father.
16:49We both agree.
16:50I think it's the best thing moving forward with your line.
16:53Um, what about Deke?
16:58I think Deke is talented.
17:00I think he has promise.
17:01But like I said, he does have a bright future.
17:06Just not here at Forrester Creations.
17:12You really think I should do this?
17:14Yes.
17:15I believe in you just as much as Dad does.
17:18You've got to go for it.
17:19Listen to your son.
17:19He knows what he's talking about.
17:21And I'll be with you every step of the way.
17:25God, I mean, it's a little scary walking away from Forrester.
17:27And my sisters.
17:30I mean, Brooke and Donna have always been my support system.
17:32And they still will be.
17:34One hundred percent.
17:35Because that Logan bond is stronger than where you happen to work.
17:39You're right.
17:41You're right.
17:42Of course you are.
17:44They're going to be proud of me, too.
17:46They're going to be proud that I'm finally stepping into a role that I was always meant to do.
17:50Oh, thank you.
17:54Thank you for believing in me.
17:57I'm going to seize this opportunity.
18:00I'm going to do it.
18:03I'm going to do it.
18:04Yes!
18:05Let's go!
18:06Yes!
18:07Group on, group on, group on, group on, group on.
18:09Oh, my God.
18:10Oh, my God.
18:10Oh, my God.
18:13Oh, my God.
18:20Oh, my God.
18:50Oh, my God.
18:51Oh, my God.
18:52Oh, my God.
18:53Oh, my God.
18:54Oh, my God.
18:55Oh, my God.
18:56Oh, my God.
18:57Oh, my God.
18:58Oh, my God.
18:59Oh, my God.
19:00Oh, my God.
19:02Oh, my God.
19:03Oh, my God.
19:04Oh, my God.
19:05Oh, my God.
19:06Oh, my God.
19:07Oh, my God.
19:08Oh, my God.
19:09Oh, my God.
19:10Oh, my God.
19:11Oh, my God.
19:12Oh, my God.
19:13Oh, my God.
19:14Oh, my God.
19:15Oh, my God.
19:16Oh, my God.
19:17Oh, my God.
19:18Oh, my God.
19:19Oh, my God.
