Steffy delivers some huge news for Hope in recap for September 16, 2024. We start the week at Forrester Creations, where Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) says Hope for the Future is not performing. Hope (Annika Noelle) says Steffy gave her a chance to bring it up to par but Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) says it's not moving at all.

Hope asks if they're killing her line. Liam (Scott Clifton) praises Will (Crew Morrow) for being a good brother and for being so protective of his mother. Deacon (Sean Kanan) walks up and greets Will.

He jokes about being Liam's ex-father-in-law. Bill (Don Diamont) and Katie (Heather Tom) are thrilled to have Will back in town, which also means Bill gets to see more of Katie, which he’s happy about. He asks if she’s happy? She says that at this moment she is very happy.

Deacon says he and Bill go way back, but their history isn't exactly pleasant. Liam makes another joke. Deacon knows they're all going through a lot and Liam knows Deacon is dealing with the aftermath of what Luna did, too.

Will, glad their father isn't another one of Luna's victims, wonders what set Luna off.. Bill is happy that Katie is happy.

She knows he's been through a lot and says it's good to have people to lean on. He has an idea; he wants her to text Will to come over so they can have family time. Hope thinks they have all been waiting for this.

Ridge says it's not personal but Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) says it is, that the line is Hope's identity. Finn (Tanner Novlan) think.
