“Thomas is dead…” But is he really?

As Forrester Creations prepared to dazzle the European fashion elite with its most ambitious international show to date, Ridge, Brooke, and Eric took flight toward Italy, hopeful for a rare moment of unity and legacy. The cameras were ready. The stage was set. The family, fractured though it may be, had found purpose in fashion once more.

But just as their private jet soared across the Atlantic, a chilling call shattered the moment — and possibly the Forrester family itself.

Back in Los Angeles, Paris Buckingham’s voice trembled as she contacted the Forrester household with horrifying news: Thomas had been involved in a fatal car crash outside Paris, France. No hospital report. No authorities. Just her shaken voice delivering the sentence no parent should ever hear — “He didn’t survive.”

Steffy froze. Taylor collapsed. And just like that, the glow of celebration was replaced with the darkness of grief.

Steffy’s first instinct was disbelief. “Thomas is dead,” she whispered aloud, as if saying the words might make them real. But her body rejected it. Her heart rebelled. Taylor, frantic and ungrounded, grabbed her passport and began packing in blind terror. They were on the next flight to Europe within the hour.

Meanwhile, Ridge and Brooke remained unaware of the tragedy brewing back home. Their plane streaked through the clouds toward Italy, where legacy, fashion, and press awaited them. Ridge, caught in his usual inner conflict between Brooke and Taylor, hoped the event would bring clarity. Brooke, still haunted by her complicated feelings for Nick, tried to bury her heartache in business. Eric, glowing with pride, saw only a celebration ahead. None of them knew that the family they left behind was unraveling.

Back in L.A., Hope was left shaken by the news of Thomas’ alleged death. Her hands trembled as she remembered their last conversation. Did he sound distracted? Off? She tried to recall any detail that might hint at what happened… or what didn’t. Finn tried to comfort Steffy over the phone, but she barely heard him. Her heart had already left the continent.

But soon, suspicion began to creep in. Paris’s phone call had been vague. There had been no official confirmation from a hospital, no call from police or French authorities. Why hadn’t the embassy been involved? Why did Paris sound so uncertain?

As Steffy and Taylor touched down in France, their minds spinning with grief and disbelief, they rushed to meet Paris. But instead of clarity, they were met with more confusion. Paris stood alone outside a hotel neither Steffy nor Taylor recognized, her eyes red, her hands fidgeting.

“It all happened so fast,” she said, avoiding their gaze.

Where was the crash site? Where were Thomas’s belongings? Why hadn’t anyone contacted the family formally?

The grief began to shift. Suspicion seeped into Steffy’s voice. Was it all a mistake? Could Thomas have been misidentified? Or — and the thought chilled her — was this something darker?

Theories began to form. Could someone have staged the crash? Could Thomas have been targeted — or even willingly vanished? When pressed, Paris faltered, unable to explain key details. There was no death certificate. No body. No evidence.

And then, as Steffy, Taylor, and Paris stood arguing in the streets of Paris, something — or someone — moved in the background.

The camera lingered, ever so slightly, on a figure watching from the shadows. His face was obscured. But his silhouette? Familiar. Too familiar.

Was it Thomas?

Back in Italy, the runway lights came up. Flashbulbs captured every moment of Ridge and Brooke standing side by side. Eric beamed as designs unfolded down the catwalk. Fashion history was being made… even as a family history threatened to repeat itself in tragedy.

Because if Thomas isn’t dead — if this entire accident was a fabrication — then the question becomes: why?

Is Thomas running from something… or someone? Was he forced into hiding? Or is this his own elaborate scheme?

And what role, if any, is Paris really playing?

The timing is suspicious. The details are vague. The grief is real — but the facts are flimsy. And now Taylor and Steffy are stuck in a foreign city chasing a ghost… while the rest of the Forrester family celebrates under the illusion that all is well.

The story is spiraling. Emotions are boiling. And behind it all is one burning question:

Is Thomas Forester really gone — or has the master of misdirection pulled off his greatest illusion yet?
