Katie yelled at Brooke that she had seen the texts between Brooke and Bill. She accused her of trying to seduce Bill because that’s all Brooke knows – seduction! Brooke tried to get through to Katie, but she wouldn’t listen to what she was saying. Brooke said that she wasn’t trying to seduce Bill. Katie told Brooke that playing the victim was a bad look for her. Katie accused Brooke of trying to get Bill on her side. “Stay the hell away from my husband,” Katie ordered Brooke.
Katie wondered if Brooke and Bill had enough time to get their stories straight. Katie pointed out to Brooke that Hope and Zende came running to her. Brooke accused her of rationalizing. Katie said she was making Logan Designs a big success. Katie said that Brooke didn’t care for her. She was just mad that Katie wasn’t rolling over, as she’d always done. Brooke said that Katie has taken designers from Forrester for her company. Brooke said that this wouldn’t make Katie happy. Katie accused Brooke of going after her marriage.
Katie told Brooke that she was past caring. Katie told Brooke that the last time she saw Eric, she begged him to tell the real reason that he left Forrester Creations to work for Katie at Logan Designs, and he wouldn’t. Therefore, Katie didn’t care how Eric felt. Brooke chastised Katie for using Eric’s designs at Logan. “I bought them,” Katie shouted at her sister.
Brooke told Katie that Eric would never work with her again and that soon, Zende and Hope would feel the same way. Katie suggested to Brooke that she keep telling herself that. Brooke wanted to know what was really going on. Katie said that Brooke knew what was going on. Katie wished that she’d just seen it before. Katie told Brooke the only person she cared about was herself.
Brooke said that she used to respect Katie. Right now, Brooke said she didn’t even know who Katie was. Katie said that she felt disgust. Brooke said that she was doing what she did out of love. She said so was Bill. Brooke said that she wasn’t after her husband. Brooke accused Katie of being obsessed with destroying her. Katie asked Brooke if she could see how she just kept pivoting back to herself. Brooke warned Katie that it would be lonely at the top. “I’ll risk it,” Katie shot back.
Brooke said that Katie was exhibiting the same behavior that tore Bill and Katie apart in the first place. Katie was stunned that Brooke saw her split from Bill that way (and how Brooke did not take any responsibility for Brooke’s role in Katie and Bill’s marriage ending).
Brooke told Katie that she was worried for her. Brooke acknowledged that the idea of Bill and Brooke would trigger her, but she wasn’t after him. They were just trying to get her to see that her need for revenge wasn’t healthy. Brooke said that Katie would destroy everything that Katie cared about if she wasn’t careful.
Donna and Dollar Bill

Over at Spencer Publications, Donna showed up at Bill’s office. He wasn’t happy to see her, but Donna told him that he still knew why she was there. Donna thanked Bill for trying to get through to Katie. Bill said that he didn’t help Donna’s sisters reconnect. In fact, he may have made it worse. Donna asked what Bill meant by that. Bill said he tried to dial back the animosity between his wife and Brooke. Donna asked if it had worked. Bill said no, based on the headlines that appeared in stories by Spencer Publications.
Donna wondered if Katie was unaware or if she just didn’t care. Bill lamented that his phone went off when he was talking to Katie. It was a text from Brooke! Donna feared Katie saw the text. Bill confirmed that she had. Donna asked if Katie had read the texts. Bill said he’d give Donna three guesses. Donna said that she was afraid that something like this would happen. Bill said he tried to defuse the situation, but he only made it worse. Donna asked where Katie was. Bill said that she was visiting Brooke.
At Long Last, Liam

Hope told Liam about the fallout with Zende leaving Forrester and going to Logan Designs. Liam noted that Logan was trending everywhere. Hope was glad, but she wasn’t sure that Katie went about getting Zende to join Logan Designs in the right way. Hope worried about her mom in all this.
Liam checked online for any fires that he and Hope had to put out, but Liam said that Katie and Bill had it under control. Hope pointed out that Forrester Creations lost out on a whole demographic when she and Zende left.
Alone, Hope flashed back to a confrontation with her mother in which Brooke accused her daughter of being involved with something so malicious. Then, Liam entered the room. He told his wife that she and Zende would do amazing things together. Hope was excited to work with Zende again. She feared Brooke would think that Hope had betrayed her again. Hope said that Brooke had reached out to her, but she wasn’t sure how to respond.
Hope said she knew that both she and her mother were hurting. Liam gently informed his wife that she was being largely ignored at Forrester Creations. Hope thanked her husband for the pep talk and playfully acknowledged that yes, it was working. Hope said that she could see this from Brooke’s point of view.
Liam said that two things can be true. He said that Hope can’t blame herself for what happened, and also, it’s perfectly normal for a woman to miss her mother. Liam told Hope that if she needed time…she told him no, she wanted to get to work with Zende. Liam pointed out that Hope couldn’t stop talking about Brooke.
How will Katie respond to Brooke telling her that it was Katie’s behavior that ended her marriage to Bill? Can Donna help bring Katie and Brooke back together? Is Liam’s concern for Hope founded? Sound off in the comments section!
