00:00I can't tell you how much your support means to me.
00:07Of course.
00:09I hope you didn't think I would disapprove.
00:12Oh, Kate.
00:14Well, I know that you've always wanted what's best for me,
00:17but we've given so much of our lives to Forrester,
00:20and I know me starting a new fashion house at Spencer
00:24could be a lot to take in.
00:26Yeah, yeah. Well, I'm not gonna lie.
00:29It was kind of a shock,
00:31but I am and always will be very proud of you.
00:42We're hugging.
00:43Oh, yes, we're hugging.
00:45I want a hug.
00:46Oh, yes, get in here.
00:51Wait, why are we hugging?
00:53Well, we're celebrating Katie's new chapter.
00:58New chapter?
01:00New chapter? What?
01:02Uh, she's starting a fashion house at Spencer.
01:06She's leaving Forrester, leaving us.
01:09Katie's leaving Forrester Creations?
01:14Well, don't act so surprised.
01:17Katie being here makes a lot more sense than wasting her talents at Circus Forrester.
01:21I know, but Dad, you not only married the woman, you're just giving her a fashion house.
01:28Did you just meet me?
01:30It's go big or go home.
01:32That's a hell of a wedding gift, Dad.
01:34It's amazing, really.
01:35Thomas found out about Hope for the Future coming back and then he and Zendee started corresponding and came up with all these sketches.
01:45That's a good starting point.
01:47Hope, hi.
01:49Sorry. Hi. I'm just still a little thrown. Um, maybe the whole having to tell my brother that he's not needed here.
02:00I get that. He's a good kid. He's gonna be a really good designer.
02:03Just not here.
02:05Hope for the Future's been on shaky ground for quite a while. It's a good launch. Thomas and Zendee can give you that.
02:14All right. Let's make history.
02:23Hey.
02:24Hey.
02:25I'm really excited to be back on Hope for the Future.
02:29I know the change up with your brother has got to be challenging, but I'm excited to take the line to the next level.
02:37Look, with Zendee and the two of us, sky's the limit.
02:44Half a case. Half a case.
02:47Chilled. You got it.
02:56Hey, there he is. My favorite food taster. I hope you're hungry. You're always hungry.
03:00Uh, the chef's in the kitchen working on a new recipe for the spaghetti carbonara.
03:04Cool.
03:05Cool.
03:07Everything okay?
03:09No. Not really.
03:13What's going on?
03:15Um...
03:16We're sure you didn't continue my contract.
03:19They let me go.
03:20Hope for the Future's been out of the public eye for a while now.
03:34Yes, but we have been kicking around some ideas.
03:38Like what?
03:39We're not trying to recreate Hope for the Future ground up, okay? There's still value there.
03:45It's just that it needs a new face, right? The voice, the attitude, that needs to change, but the bones are still good.
03:57Hope?
03:59Well, urban chic is what Deke and I were going for. He actually was showing me some fresh ideas when I kicked him off the line.
04:08Kid's got a lot of talent, but he needs some more experience.
04:11No, I understand that. But we did kind of trample on his dream, and I feel horrible that I was a part of that.
04:19Mr. Fire again.
04:25A lot more pleasant words, but yeah.
04:28What happened?
04:29I didn't have enough experience.
04:31And Thomas wanted back on the line.
04:34Tommy boy.
04:35Does Hope know about this?
04:38She's the one who had to give me the news.
04:40Ah.
04:41Wow. So instead of reporting the news, y'all just want to be the news.
04:52Why choose when you can have both?
04:54I, well, yeah, there's that. But, I don't know, covering fashion and creating it are two very different things.
05:01I'm well aware. But my Spencey senses tell me that with the right person leading the way, there's no reason that this endeavor won't be just as successful as everything else I've created.
05:11This is a monumental time for the company. And I know that the right person to lead us into this next chapter is Katie.
05:19Wow. So she's really walking away from Forrester.
05:23Giving notice as we speak.
05:25Bill gave you a fashion house?
05:28I mean, that is incredible.
05:31I know. It's crazy.
05:33I mean, I'm really sad to see you go, but wow.
05:38I mean, you're going to build a legacy, Katie.
05:41You have so much to give.
05:43I hope you know that you have vision and talent.
05:46You have heart.
05:48You have heart. And you know what? It's about time the whole world gets to see it.
05:51As long as you promise, you know, to keep our weekly brunches going.
05:56Oh, yes. Of course. Of course.
05:58I promise.
06:00I'm going to miss working here with both of you. I really am.
06:04It's been a dream.
06:06I've been given this amazing opportunity and I just...
06:10I have to take it.
06:12Yeah, me too.
06:14Aw.
06:15Aw.
06:25Listen, letting Diko wasn't easy for any of us.
06:29But this is bigger than just one person.
06:31I think the three of you can pull this off.
06:34No, I-I do agree.
06:37Here's something Thomas and I have been working on.
06:39I don't know.
06:40That's what I think.
06:43Wow.
06:44So you two, you've just been doing all these designs virtually?
06:48Look, I would love to move back to L.A. full time, but I can't uproot Douglas from his whole life in Paris.
06:55But I'll be back and forth as much as necessary.
06:57Well, I am impressed. You and Zenday have created some pretty impressive designs.
07:03We're in sync. We know exactly how to bring your visions to life.
07:06That's right. It's two Foresters ushering your line into the future.
07:11I am excited about what having the two of you could mean for my line.
07:18But?
07:20But I do hate the fact that it came at my brother's expense.
07:29Hope went along with-with Ridge and Steffi?
07:32I mean, she didn't have a choice.
07:33She was put in an impossible position.
07:36You know, either work with Tommy and Zenday or take a chance on you.
07:40No, Dad, she did. Okay? She gave me an incredible-
07:42No, she didn't give you anything. Okay? You earned it.
07:46You know, they were in love with your designs way before they even knew who you were.
07:50Keep listening to me.
07:51I get that the timing might not have been right on this, but you are doing exactly what you should be doing.
07:58And I'm proud of you.
07:59Thanks, Dad.
08:01I'm gonna learn from this. I'm gonna become an even better designer.
08:05Hell yeah, you are.
08:06I gotta take care of this.
08:11Go. Go out. I know my way around the kitchen. Maybe I'll trade some of that carbon arc.
08:16Um, you know there's always room for you to work here until you find your next design gig.
08:21Yeah? You think this place can handle two sharps?
08:23I know it can.
08:46Hey.
08:53I still can't believe it. You are gonna have your own fashion house.
09:03We're really gonna miss you.
09:04Yeah.
09:05Well, no matter what, we're sisters. And that will always come first.
09:11Doesn't matter where we are or what we're doing.
09:14We're not gonna let this new fashion house or anything else come between us.
09:18Promise?
09:20Of course.
09:23I'm sorry. I-I know you said you wanted your space.
09:31I actually came here to see your dad.
09:34I-I was hoping he could help me get through to you.
09:37Find the right words to tell you how sorry I am.
09:41How much I miss you.
09:43I hear you.
09:45But I'm just-I'm going through a lot right now.
09:48And I-I just-I don't think I'm in the right head space for this conversation, Rumi.
09:51What's going on?
09:55You can talk to me.
09:57Please.
09:58I-I was cut from Forrester.
09:59I guess my-I guess my-my designs aren't good enough for them.
10:04Is that one of Deek's designs? He is talented.
10:10Yes, he is.
10:11Um, I was hoping to have a little moment alone with you.
10:16Okay.
10:17Well, first I want to congratulate you on your wedding, obviously.
10:19Um, Douglas gave me the play-by-play and it sounded pretty adorable. You know, Beth officiating.
10:22Yeah, she did a really great job.
10:23Yeah, she did a really great job.
10:24I'm sure she did.
10:25Yeah.
10:26Yeah.
10:27Yeah.
10:28I mean, she's got to be pretty stoked having her parents back together.
10:29Liam is a lucky guy.
10:31Okay.
10:32Well, first I want to congratulate you on your wedding, obviously.
10:34Um, Douglas gave me the play-by-play and it sounded pretty adorable. You know, Beth officiating.
10:40Yeah, she did a really great job.
10:41I'm sure she did.
10:42Yeah.
10:43I mean, she's got to be pretty stoked having her parents back together. Liam is a lucky guy.
10:56Look, I know that, uh, me being here, making changes so for the future, it's, it's a lot
11:02to digest.
11:03But I want you to know that, um, everything's going to be, like, okay between us.
11:10I'm, I'm here to help with the line to the best I can.
11:14And obviously you have moved on.
11:17I've moved on.
11:18And working together is not going to be a problem.
11:22You have my word.
11:24Hi.
11:25Hey.
11:26How'd it go with Brooke?
11:27Ah, and Donna.
11:28And Donna.
11:29The gang was all there.
11:30Yeah.
11:31They think you're crazy for leaving Forrester?
11:32Um, no.
11:33Actually, they were surprisingly supportive.
11:34They should be, considering how exceptional you are.
11:37Well, I can't blame them for being surprised.
11:38I mean, going from head of PR to running my own fashion house, they just can't believe
11:44what you did for me.
11:45Of course I did.
11:46I can't think of anyone who could be more successful at running a new fashion house than you.
11:59So I was very proud of Hope today.
12:00She had to tell Deke that, uh, he was no longer part of the company and she handled it like a
12:04true professional.
12:05Well, that's good.
12:06Something I've got to tell you.
12:07It's about Katie.
12:08I was just with her.
12:09She okay?
12:10Yeah.
12:11Yeah.
12:12Yeah.
12:13She's great, actually.
12:14I'm just good.
12:15Yeah.
12:16So I was very proud of Hope today.
12:17She had to tell Deke that he was no longer part of the company and she handled it like
12:21a true professional.
12:22Well, that's good.
12:24There's something I've got to tell you.
12:29It's about Katie.
12:32I was just with her.
12:34Is she okay?
12:35Yeah.
12:36Yeah.
12:37She's great, actually.
12:42You won't believe what Bill gave her for a wedding present.
12:47I think I can guess.
12:48It's probably a diamond-crusted tiara with this picture on.
12:52A fashion house.
13:07Why am I getting the impression you're having a hard time believing me?
13:10Oh.
13:11No, it's not that.
13:14Look, it's going to be different this time.
13:17It is.
13:18My sole focus is being here for the line, right?
13:21To revitalize it.
13:23To keep it alive.
13:24Look, I know that we have a complicated history.
13:31That is an understatement.
13:34Right, it is.
13:35But that's in the past.
13:38Okay?
13:39We're moving forward.
13:40And I still think about those times, though.
13:47It was good.
13:48Us creating together, you know?
13:51Standing at the foot of runways to thunderous applause.
13:54And that's what I want.
13:55That's what I want to bring back.
13:57Right?
13:58I mean, other than being a wonderful dad to Douglas, this is what I'm focused on.
14:03Okay?
14:04So, working together is not going to be a problem, and I will not let you down.
14:15So, after all that, they just let me go.
14:19I thought this was it.
14:21Designing and working with my sister.
14:24I'm so sorry.
14:28I know it hurts.
14:31But your talent?
14:33Your passion?
14:35You are the most gifted person that I've ever met.
14:38So, when it's your time to shine, you will shake the world.
14:49I hate that I hurt you.
14:52I'm sorry.
14:53I...
14:54I should have told you everything about my past.
14:57I was just...
14:59I was so ashamed and confused.
15:01And...
15:04I hate what I did to Elektra.
15:07But I'm not that person anymore.
15:10I found love for the first time, and...
15:13It changed me.
15:15I mean...
15:17I love you.
15:19God, I miss you.
15:21And I just hope that one day...
15:24You'll be able to forgive me.
15:27So, on a scale of one to ten, how certain were you that I was going to leave Forrester?
15:37Hmm...
15:38Two.
15:39A two?
15:40Two?
15:41Yeah, well, you're fiercely loyal.
15:42I mean, it's one of the many qualities I love about you.
15:45So, you see your sisters there, and your first instinct is going to be to lift them up, care for them.
15:51So, you were surprised that I left?
15:54Uh, proud would be a more appropriate word.
15:57So, tell me more about their reaction to the news.
16:00You were sweet.
16:01Yeah, I'm surprised, but supportive.
16:06Brooke insisted that she tell Rich.
16:11What is it?
16:14Nothing.
16:15Come on.
16:18It's just that, uh, despite Brooke's supportive words, I kind of felt like there was something else there.
16:25She cautioned me against starting my own fashion house.
16:29She said that it might be more challenging than I realize.
16:32Well, I don't know if I should be angry or laugh at Spencer's arrogance.
16:44My parents, they spent years trying to make this work.
16:47And he's just going to buy one and throw money at it?
16:49I guess his plan is to have Katie lead it.
16:52Oh, I see.
16:53Because he has a fashion sense of a midlife crisis.
16:55He thinks that an unbuttoned shirt and tight pants is fashion.
16:59It isn't.
17:00I know.
17:01I don't disagree.
17:03And I was trying to be supportive of Katie.
17:06But it's going to be really hard for her.
17:09She has no name recognition and no real history in the fashion business.
17:16Katie, you don't need my reassurance.
17:19You're strong.
17:21Brilliant.
17:23Go on.
17:25Let Brooke doubt you.
17:28Not see you coming.
17:30I dare her to underestimate you.
17:33You're the strongest, most tenacious person I know.
17:37And you wasted your time for way too long with those fools who didn't appreciate what they had in you.
17:45Well, that ends today.
17:47And this isn't about money or power.
17:53It's about faith.
17:55My faith in you and my love for you.
18:02My Katie.
18:03I'm not hidees.
18:04We couldn't hide it.
18:23Yes.
