The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers tease that Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) fears the worst for Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson). As B&B viewers know, she was just told by Charlie Webber (Dick Christie) that the big vat in the industrial area of Forrester Creations contained hydrofluoric acid, which can disintegrate a human body in minutes. That’s got Hope seriously worried, since the vat is right under the catwalk where she shoved Thomas aside to make her escape.
Hope now remembers hearing a splash as she ran from the scene, so she thinks that the unthinkable might have happened – that Thomas might have fallen in the vat and died. Hope’s got a lot of things running through her head right now. She’s probably worried about Douglas Forrester (Henry Joseph Samiri) potentially having lost another parent, plus she’s likely concerned about being on the hook for attempted murder if anyone were to find out what happened.
Well, according to ongoing The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers, Thomas is still very much alive, so it’s likely that the liquid in the vat was actually water and not hydrofluoric acid. This would make sense, since B&B viewers saw Thomas float up to the surface of liquid and he wasn’t burning or in any apparent distress. Plus, spoilers for the week of November 18, 2019, indicate that Thomas will be off somewhere planning his next bold move in his plot against the Logans.
So what happened to Thomas? Well, the episode airing on Monday, November 11th included an interesting sequence in which Hope frantically went back to the industrial area to look for Thomas. She didn’t find anything but the steaming vat of liquid, but then suddenly a worker in a yellow hazmat suit appeared and yelled at her to leave the area because they had turned off the ventilation system.
But who was that man in the hazmat suit? Could it have been Thomas himself? It would make sense that if Thomas had crawled out of the vat that he’d need some dry clothes to wear, and he might have picked up a hazmat suit that was hanging around the area. Plus, the suit would keep him hidden from Hope, which might be his objective now, since he now knows that Hope was manipulating him into signing the adoption papers.
B&B buzz says Thomas has now turned on Hope and is plotting her demise right along with Brooke Forrester’s (Katherine Kelly Lang) demise. And what better way to do it than to sit back and wait for Hope to cover up his “death” so he can use it against her later. Perhaps he also plans to watch and wait so he can get evidence that Hope committed fraud when she promised him that they’d be a family with Douglas in exchange for him signing the adoption papers.
It would be a pretty good plan on Thomas’ part, although it would necessarily mean laying low for a while and staying incommunicado with his family…which B&B spoilers say he’ll do. Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) will try unsuccessfully to reach her brother over the next week, and she’ll be concerned about him. It looks like it will all be part of his plan.
What do you think? Was Thomas the man in the hazmat suit? Stay tuned to B&B and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest Bold and the Beautiful spoilers, updates, and news.
