With that in mind, Brooke might come up with a plan to get Hope’s attention off John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan).

Although Brooke may not love the idea of Hope getting back together with Thomas, she might think it’s better than Hope stirring up trouble in Steffy and Finn’s marriage.

Regardless, Brooke realizes that Hope’s line needs Thomas right now.

Even putting all the personal drama aside, Hope for the Future may not survive without Thomas’ involvement.

Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) gave Hope more time to turn things around, but Steffy’s still expecting her to fail once next quarter’s numbers roll around.

Hope wants to prove Steffy wrong, but that may not be possible if Thomas doesn’t return to the line.

Under the circumstances, Brooke might think it’ll be a win-win situation if Thomas comes home with Douglas Forrester (Henry Joseph Samiri).

In addition to Thomas potentially saving Hope for the Future again and making it an even bigger success, he might make Hope forget all about her Finn crush – at least that’s what Brooke could end up hoping.

Whether Hope reunites with Thomas romantically or not, Brooke might think it’ll be good for Hope to have Douglas around.

Maybe Brooke will think this little family reunion will be enough to shut down whatever burning desires Hope’s developed regarding Finn.

Of course, Hope’s pretty into Finn at this point, so it may be tough to stop what she’s feeling now that her motor’s running for him.

Hope will definitely be glad to see Douglas again when the time comes, but she may not look at Thomas the same way anymore now that Finn is the main guy in her fantasies.

Nevertheless, it’d be interesting to see Brooke summon Thomas or at least urge Ridge to do it.

Brooke might think Thomas and Douglas’ return could solve Hope’s problems, but it may not be that simple based on our B&B predictions!

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Brooke may have to make some strategy updates along the way, so stay tuned for more news on Hope’s messy love life.
