So Marlena trusts "Hope" now?

I was surprised she told Steve to bring her with him today.

She’s always trusted Hope. Except when she was Gope.

Yes Marlena may not be too thrilled with Hope right but she does trust her.

I noticed definite hesitancy on Marlena's part in telling Steve to bring Hope. I think Marlena is feeling that desperate to help get John back, that she's willing to set aside her trust issues with Hope for now if there's any chance Hope could help. Perhaps it will be Hope's help in this, that will seal Marlena's trust in Hope again, for certain.

I think in Marlena's mind she thinks even if Hope still wants her husband then obviously she's motivated to help her keep John alive. Not that Hope does want John. But I think ever since the original Gina storyline Marlena is guarded around Hope. The rational part of Marlena's mind accepts none of this stuff is ever Hope's fault but Marlena doesn't want to let her guard down around her either.
