Additional details about Hope using Carter
After Hope is dismissed and Carter believes his efforts at Forrester Creations have been overlooked, the two decide to take action together in the most recent episode of The Bold and the Beautiful. Carter is angry that Ridge and Steffy have ignored him, while Hope is still furious over being fired.
Together, they devise a strategy to seize the corporation by exploiting a legal weakness in the documentation that Carter has been responsible for managing. Carter sees that he can put himself in command of Forrester Creations by changing the management system.
Hope pushes Carter to seize the chance, appealing to his dissatisfaction with how the Forresters have treated him. She thinks that now is his moment to receive the accolades he deserves. Hope also suggests that they manage the firm jointly, turning the tables on those who have overlooked them both.
Carter is first apprehensive, but Hope tells him they will profit from this power transfer. She emphasizes how little recognition he has received for his labor and frames the relocation as an opportunity to enhance Forrester Creations, not just for vengeance, but also for their future on The Bold and the Beautiful.
By appealing to Carter's feelings and aspirations, Hope is able to persuade him that this strategy could hold the secret to achieving their shared goals. By the conclusion, Carter consents to proceed with the plan, paving the way for a possible change of authority inside the organization.
By presenting their acts as an opportunity for both of them to take control of their destiny and challenge the Forresters' grip over the corporation, Hope demonstrates her capacity to inspire Carter.
