At Forrester Creations, Steffy tells Thomas how proud she is of the choices he’s been making. He asks about her and she opens up about having another baby with Liam — she can’t dispute the test results. Thomas flashes to asking Vinny if he messed with the results. Ridge enters and asks if they’ve seen Carter or Zoe. They haven’t. Ridge muses if they’re together, it could be for the last time. He just wants his friend to be happy. Thomas has somewhere to go and rushes out. Steffy and Ridge exchange a look.

In the loft, Zoe pleads with Carter not to give up on them. Carter wishes he could believe her words and tears were sincere. Zoe urges, “Let’s get married. As soon as possible.” She wants to stand by him forever. Carter loves her, but he can’t get past what she did. He declares they had their chance. Zoe protests and he roars, “It’s over!” He can’t trust her the way a man should trust his wife. Carter tells her she can keep the ring, but adds, “Take it off so there’s no confusion.” Zoe places the ring on the table and vows to win back his trust one day.
Zoe pleads B&B

At the Forrester mansion, Paris raves about the catered meal and the dress Zende designed for her. She teases a girl could get used to this. Zende chuckles; his evil plan is working. They gush over the gown and Zende lets her know she’s beautiful. Paris doesn’t know how to thank him, but he knows exactly what she can do. There are two things; he wants her to teach him about her work and he wants her to sing for him. Paris thinks it’s the least she could do and launches into a song. After, Zende claps and gapes, “What?” She’s so talented. Paris thanks him for setting this all up. Zende is keen to get back to work and feels like he’s on fire right now.

Zoe finds Ridge in his office and updates him that Carter called off the engagement. She snarks that he must be happy. Ridge asks, “You think seeing my friend in pain makes me happy?” Once again, she asks Ridge to put in a good word; she doesn’t want to lose Carter. Ridge tells her she messed up and to deal with the consequences.

In the design office, Paris is stunned when Zoe enters and rants that Carter called off their engagement. “And it’s all because of you!” She rages that she begged for a second chance but Carter wouldn’t listen. Paris screwed everything up. Paris argues that not everything is about Zoe; she’s been living her own life. Zoe rails about Paris pushing into her life. “I can’t take it anymore. I want you gone. Today.”

Thomas finds Vinny in the lab and asks what’s new and exciting. Vinny warns he’s not supposed to be in there. Thomas saw Steffy, who was so sure the baby was Finn’s. Vinny protests; they’ve been over this. Thomas wants to believe him, but recalls when Vin stole the answer sheet from the teacher to help him in high school. He wants Vinny to bring up the results on the computer to prove he’s not lying. Vinny could get fired and refuses. Thomas, shouting, demands, “Show me, Vinny. Show me now!”

14/24

Making another valiant attempt at moving on without Hope, this time Thomas’ efforts were stymied when he crossed paths with a compelling mannequin that looked exactly like the object of his desire. After taking it home, it began talking to him, and inevitably, he tried to romance the thing. In Thomas’ defense, Liam also thought it was really Hope when he spied the designer kissing it. All of this came to a head when Hope found Thomas passed out on the floor of his apartment and it was discovered that he had a brain tumor.

15/24

Thomas and Vinny Walker were pals from school, so he was loathe to believe that the kind-hearted drug dealer had used his newfound position in the lab to switch his sister Steffy’s paternity results… but that’s exactly what he’d done. It turns out Vinny thought it would help Thomas get closer to Hope if Steffy had a baby with Liam. Thomas was angry, but was later devastated when his lifelong friend threw himself in front of Liam’s car and died as a last-ditch effort to win him the girl of his dreams.

17/24

We couldn’t help but think that Thomas needed to get out of the office more when he fell for another woman who already had a man — cousin Zende’s girl, Paris Buckingham. But that wasn’t the only thing that made it awkward — she was also Zoe’s sister — yes, that Zoe, the one he jilted at the altar. The bad news is that he was going through a man bun phase, the good news is that when the newly-mature and stable Thomas made his feelings known to Paris, who was sub-letting his apartment, he was accepting when she friend-zoned him.

19/24

Thomas found out Sheila Carter had pushed his father’s wife, Brooke, off the wagon and kept the secret a tad too long in hopes that his parents would reunite. Steffy realized something was going on between the two and eventually figured out what her husband’s mad biological mother had done, which played a part in their fateful confrontation in the alley behind Il Giardino. Much to Thomas’ horror, both Steffy and Finn were shot by Sheila that night and left for dead. Happily, they both survived in the end.

In the aftermath of trying to force Douglas to keep his dirty secret, Thomas decided it would be a good idea to let the boy decide who he wanted to live with… because, of course, he’d pick his dad, right? Wrong. Douglas threw both Thomas and Hope for a loop when he chose his Aunt Steffy’s cliffside abode and they were forced to go along with it. Thomas then made another miscalculation by thinking he’d have open access to his son at his sister’s place, which led to yet another falling out with Steffy.

<p>Thomas has known his sometime stepsister Hope Logan since she was a baby. Their relationship would take many twists and turns over the years, including… erm, obsession.</p>

<p>Thomas and Rick have had a tumultuous history. This includes Thomas blowing up Rick’s car upon learning he romanced both of Thomas’ sisters as well as his mother.</p>

<p>Years later, Thomas (then Adam Gregory) butted heads with Rick over business, as well as Caroline Spencer. One argument led to Rick falling out a window. Hey, it happens.</p>

<p>Though Brooke has been married to his father Ridge numerous times, Thomas couldn’t help being drawn to her. He went so far as to kiss her during a runway show as part of a PR stunt dreamed up by Whip Jones. They later developed problems of a different nature.</p>

<p>During a tour to promote a clothing line, Brooke and Thomas’ plane crashed on a deserted island. While there, they ate hallucinogenic berries, leading Thomas to believe they had sex. He took a bribe from grandma Stephanie to lie that they had slept together, but eventually came clean. </p>

<p>Despite their parents being married, Thomas became enamored with Hope (then Kim Matula) early on. However, he always had to contend with her love for Liam Spencer, who also had a history with Thomas’ sister Steffy.</p>

<p>Thomas fell for spunky Sally Spectra and defected from Forrester to become the lead designer at her company Spectra Fashions. Their love wouldn’t last, however, as he left her to be with Caroline and their son Douglas when he thought Caroline was dying.</p>

<p>After Caroline died for real, Thomas (now Matthew Atkinson) returned to Los Angeles from New York obsessed with getting Hope to love him. He was often seen around Forrester Creations lurking, plotting and generally being creepy.</p>

<p>Still obsessed with Hope despite their marriage being annulled, Thomas rather nastily allowed her to believe he had died after they argued at Forrester Creations and he fell into a vat of acid. As it turned out, it wasn’t really acid but a cleaning solution.</p>

<p>Thomas, who had buckled down to become a good father to Douglas again as he searched for a house of his own to buy, was thrilled when his mother, Taylor, came home to the family fold. Thomas teamed with Steffy to try and convince their parents they were better together.</p>

<p>Having not hatched a scheme or made out with an inanimate object in months, Thomas decided that it was the perfect time to approach Hope about maybe moving son Douglas out of her place and into the Forrester mansion. Cue Hope’s heart shattering into a bazillion pieces in three, two…</p>

<p>Reformed our ass! Determined to reunite Mommy and Daddy, Thomas used a voice-altering phone app to make it sound like Brooke had called Child Protective Services on him. The dirty trick worked — right on cue, Ridge ran back to Taylor — but we all knew it couldn’t last…</p>

<p>Hope would have happily have had nothing more to do with Thomas, but alas, Eric and Zende’s designs fell as flat as pancakes, so to save Hope For the Future, she had to rehire the (Worst) Employee of the Month. Could he prove to her — to anyone — that he deserved this 22nd chance?</p>
