He already managed to trick her into marrying him for the sake of his son having a mother and has gone to several extremes to keep her from learning the truth about her daughter that would send her running back to Liam. However, Thomas could sink to a newer low as he continues perusing something with Hope on the Tuesday, July 23 episode of “The Bold and the Beautiful.”

Though Hope (Annika Noelle) agreed to marry him quickly for Douglas’ (Henry Joseph Samiri) sake, it isn’t lost on Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) or anyone else for that matter that she doesn’t actually love him, and would prefer to be with Liam (Scott Clifton) if they hadn’t lost their daughter, Beth, on the CBS soap. As a result, he has had to use as many tricks as he possibly can think of to not only convince her to go through with a wedding but to also make sure she never learns that Beth is alive, and is being raised by his sister, Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood).

However, he hasn’t been lucky when it comes to getting Hope into the bedroom, something he is desperate to do, and as it becomes clear that Douglas might be the only way she responds to doing anything that furthers the relationship, Thomas might use his son once again in an effort to get what he wants—even if the young boy is resistant.

“After Thomas pressures him, Douglas urges Hope to spend the night with his dad,” spoilers reveal.

Hearing Douglas say she needs to do that might come as a shock to Hope, but Thomas will likely be banking on the fact that Douglas asking her to do things for his sake has always worked before—and he will need to move quickly if he plans to find a way to convince Hope to fall for him, because the secret about Beth may not stay hidden much longer.

Liam overhears Thomas threatening Flo (Katrina Bowden) at the wedding about keeping the secret, though he doesn’t know yet it is in regards to his daughter. Knowing that he could blow up Thomas’ plans to continue manipulating Hope though, he will enlist the only person he knows that could get Flo to open up—his brother Wyatt (Darin Brooks).

“Liam turns to Wyatt for help in finding out what Thomas and Flo are hiding,” spoilers state.

“The Bold and the Beautiful” airs weekdays at 1:30 p.m. EDT on CBS.
