At the Forrester mansion, the guests take their seats. Vinny asks Thomas what Hope and Douglas are doing down there and says if Hope won’t stop the wedding, Thomas has to – he can’t marry Zoe when he doesn’t love her! Thomas grins; he’s confident Hope won’t let it happen. Thomas takes his place at the altar and Zoe appears as the Wedding March begins. Zoe joins Thomas and Carter begins the ceremony. Douglas becomes upset and runs upstairs. Hope shoots a look at Thomas and follows him. Carter says if they need to stop, they can. Zoe blurts, “No!” Thomas thinks they should wait, but Ridge feels they should continue without Douglas. Thomas wants Douglas to feel a part of the ceremony. Zoe is ready to make the commitment and wants to keep going. Carter asks if anyone else objects to this union. Vinny looks down. Carter continues and Zoe says her vows to Thomas – he was kind to her when she had no one else and that connection became something else. Thomas glances toward the staircase as Zoe continues making promises about being a wife and mother. When she finishes, Carter prompts Thomas to say his vows. Thomas looks warily at the stairs again, then tells Zoe he’s feeling overwhelmed before finally expressing his commitment. Carter moves on to the rings. Thomas gulps and asks to stop for minute – he really wanted Douglas to a part of this. Liam smirks. Steffy and Carter prompt Thomas to continue. Thomas looks vaguely panicked as they move forward. Vinny’s eyes bulge as the rings are exchanged, and Brooke whispers to Liam that perhaps they were wrong about this. Thomas is on the verge of saying, “I do,” when Hope appears in her wedding gown holding Douglas’ hand.
