At Forrester, Steffy and Ridge discuss Hope’s leave of absence. She thinks Hope needs the time away, but warns she’d better have a more pleasant attitude when she gets back.

Ridge says he talked to Hope earlier and tried to convince her that Hope For the Future is a big part of their plans, but she wasn’t buying it. Steffy’s sure she’s not about to give up the line. It won’t be long before she’s back.

Steffy asks Ridge to go solo to the marketing meeting so she can go smooth things over with Hope. Ridge appreciates that and he knows Brooke would too. He tells her she’s doing a great job.

Pinky Promise

At Brooke’s place, Hope tells Deke that they’re alone and free to talk. They marvel about what they’re doing. A fresh start and a new clothing line at Logan. Deke muses about Hope turning her back on Forrester… and her mom.

Hope admits that walking away from her line at Forrester, and working with her mom, was difficult and emotional, but it’s been made. It’s time for a change. Hope For the Future was a stepping stone to bigger things.

Deke vows he won’t let Hope down. She teases, “I hope you won’t,” and reminds him he can’t say a word to his friends, Electra and Dylan. It’s imperative to keep this a secret.

Shake It Off

At Logan, Katie tells Will that his dad wants to throw a small party to celebrate him coming to Logan. Will gripes about RJ and says he doesn’t want a party. He’s still a little upset about being fired by RJ, who will surely be hitting on Electra every chance he gets. He can try, but they love each other. Electra’s the one for him.

Katie and Will go over how great it’s going to be with him there, but the firing stings. Will is excited about what his mom is building. Everyone knows how Brooke treats her…she thinks she’s the only Logan who deserves the spotlight, but it’s not true. He reminds Katie her sister nearly tore their family apart. Katie says that was a long time ago. Will is thrilled to help his mother succeed. They embrace.

Will thanks Katie for trying to shield him from the hurt and pain of Brooke and Bill. Katie, tearing up of course, recalls him being young, impressionable, and crying. Wait, wasn’t he a baby? Katie was experiencing post-partum… right? Ah, well. Will and Katie shake it off and hug again.

Talk turns to Will getting fired and the tension between him and RJ. Dylan found the whole punch thing shocking. Electra thinks it was only a matter of time before he got pushed out given the bad blood.

Electra complains about the rug getting pulled out from under her and Will when everything was so perfect. She hopes it won’t affect their home life. Dylan’s sure it will make going home to each other even sweeter.

Oh, the drama! With Will gone, Electra complains that she feels lost. Dylan assures her she has her back. She’ll do whatever she can to help her get through Will being fired.

The Final Scenes

Hope lets Steffy into Brooke’s house and asks her why she’s walking away from Forrester.

In the Forrester showroom, Electra thanks Dylan for her support. She’s happy to have her friend back. Dylan is too. They embrace, and Electra heads out to see Will. Wow, this is a real filler episode.

Once alone, Dylan flashes back to kissing Will.

At Logan, Katie and Will are still going over how they’ll do incredible things there… as a family. The Spencers are getting stronger every day. Will feels a new sense of purpose and drive… to beat RJ. As the music swells, Katie looks forward to the Spencer family’s “insane” next chapter.
