Young and the Restless fans. We have got exciting new spoilers for next week. We’re going to talk about Kyle Abbott’s (Michael Mealor) secret plan to get revenge for the attacks on both of his parents. Plus, we’ll have Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) defying his dad, Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), and refusing to follow orders for a very understandable reason.
So, we’ve also got spoilers for Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman), Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland) and Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson). Also for Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson), Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk), Victor, and more.
Young and the Restless: Adam Defies Victor’s Plans
First, let’s talk about what has Adam Newman pushing back hard on his dad. At the end of this week, he’s talking with Victor and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow). And first, Victor bothers Adam when he says that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) needs to rest, so Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) and Connor Newman (Judah Mackey) can’t come visit. That seems kind of rude.
And then Victor starts talking business with his son and he says that he rehired the people that Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) fired and he’s doing some counter moves because she sold off some important divisions of Newman.
So, Nick has some ideas, but Victor shuts him down and he says it’s going to be Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) running Newman alone. So, both Nick and Adam are shocked and then Victor tells Nick he can come back to work at Newman Enterprises once he’s beaten his addiction. His son doesn’t like it, but Victor is being inflexible.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Victor Shocks His Kids
Then Victoria shows up and Nick says they heard she’ll be the sole CEO. And of course, Victoria says that daddy is 100% right. And then let’s get over to Adam. So he tells Victor that he and Chelsea want to rebuild Newman Media and they want to use Arabesque, the company that Victor stole from Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) as the foundation. And Nick and Victoria really like Adam’s idea. But then Victor tells them that he gave Arabesque to Phyllis.
All three of his kids are in shock and Adam, Nick, and Victoria don’t like this, especially not since it’s the first they’ve heard of it. Victor says he hates Phyllis and he hates what she did, but he admires that she pulled it off. That sounds like BS to me. And Victor brings up Phyllis and Matt saving Nick’s life. All of this seems like a big cover story. Honestly, I think the only reason Victor gave Arabesque to Phyllis was to tick off Cane. That’s it.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Adam Pushes Back on Victor
So, Adam asks about a consolation prize and Victor says they’re going to go after Spectra Charles and that will be Newman Media again. Victor says, “Then Adam can have that.” But he does not like Victor’s suggestion at all. In fact, Adam refuses to go after Sally Spectra’s (Courtney Hope) company, but Victor doesn’t care. He says it’s happening.
So, in next week’s Young and the Restless spoilers, Adam tells Victor that he needs to give him and Chelsea 6 months to put their plan into action. And Adam says after that, if it doesn’t work, then Victor can do whatever he wants. So, it sounds like Adam is suggesting an alternate strategy to redevelop Newman Media, but Victor doesn’t like it and tells Adam to take or leave his offer.
So, I’m sure that Sally’s pregnancy is at the heart of this issue for Adam. Since Sally lost their baby, Ava, he is very compassionate. And I’m sure Adam doesn’t want to declare war on Sally and stress her into a miscarriage or into some kind of pregnancy complications. And I doubt Chelsea is going to want to do that either because that’s also Billy’s baby. And especially because Sally didn’t steal Newman Media. If you remember, Phyllis did that and she’s the one who rolled it into Abbottcom for Billy. So Sally’s kind of collateral damage.
Young and the Restless: Kyle’s Revenge Against Victor
Also, at the end of this week, we saw Kyle frantic. He was running with his mom, Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters), in his arms, yelling for help from a doctor. And that’s because Patty injected Diane with a syringe meant to kill Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman). So a nurse checks over Diane and thankfully Kyle grabbed the syringe and gave it to her to check. So the doctors work on Diane and she and Tracy tell Kyle go check on Jack because he’s awake.
So, Kyle rushes in to see his dad and tells Jack they were scared they were going to lose him. And then Kyle tells Jack that Patty was about to finish him off. And then she ran and she drugged Diane. And now the cops have arrested her. And Jack wants to tell the police that Patty stabbed him.
But it looks like Detective Burrow (Matt Cohen) finally bought a clue. So Traci ears a scuffle in the hall. Patty bit the guard that Kyle hired and they bust in. Detective Burrow is there as well. Kyle wants to know what Patty and Jack did Diane with, but she won’t say. She calls it a surprise. Jack’s disgusted with Patty. Says he’ll see her in court when she’s convicted and sent to prison for life.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Ashley Abbott Returns
So, Patty’s taunting Jack about what she did to Diane. And then the cops haul her off. So Ashley burst in straight from Paris in an absolute panic. And then Diane and Jack kiss and make up. So, next week we’ve got Kyle Abbott launching this revenge plan. So, Billy was already telling Jill Abbott (Lauren Koslow) that Victor needs to pay because he brought Patty to town, and Jill agreed there should be consequences.
I actually did a video yesterday asking whether Patty will roll over on Victor. And spoilers for Young and the Restless next week have me thinking it might actually happen because Billy and Kyle talk about the Victor problem. Billy says that Victor’s a big target yet everybody keeps missing, but Kyle’s super ticked and says, “Not this time.”
So, Victor’s the reason Kyle was almost orphaned this past week. And bringing that psycho Patty to town and paying her to rape and kidnap Jack is a big problem. So, Kyle wants Victor to pay. Very understandable. So, he heads over to see Patty in her holding cell at the jail.
Y&R Spoilers: Kyle Stuns Patty
She’s in a jail house denim shirt. And this is funny. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve seen Stacy Haiduk dressed like this. Her character on Days of Our Lives, Kristen DiMera, is a real villainous piece of work and has been in prison many, many times. So, it’s a standard soap costume for the actress. And when Kyle shows up to see Patty, she says that Kyle is not the Abbott she was hoping to see.
But I’m expecting Kyle to make Patty an offer to flip on Victor and bring him down in exchange for some sort of bargain where Patty won’t go to prison for decades. Honestly, she just needs to be back in the psych ward. I fully expect that she will cut a deal with Kyle. I mean, why wouldn’t she? Patty has no loyalty to Victor. She shot and nearly killed him before. She hates him. And she may be upset because this whole scheme didn’t work and Patty didn’t wind up with Jack.
So, she might be ticked that Victor brought her there for nothing. I would be here for that. Also, given that Burrow now knows that Patty lied and is homicidally insane, they should circle back around and arrest Dr. Markham (Jere Burns), who might also turn on Victor because we know that Victor paid Patty to kidnap Jack. And it could be that Victor paid Markham to let Patty loose so that she could go after Jack.
New Y&R Casting and Spoilers
Also, next week, there’s some spoilers that I don’t know if they’re going to move any story lines forward, but I’ll tell you about them. So, we’ve got Ashley and Traci hanging out with Lauren, and they are declaring her an honorary Abbott. So, that’s it. That’s the spoiler. Also, one tidbit of casting news. There is a new face in a recurring role that’s coming to Y&R. Marie Kirkland (Jade Harlow) is popping up in about 4 weeks, and she will be recurring, not contract.
The thing is, I don’t think we need more women on Young and the Restless. She’s coming to Genoa City looking for a fresh start, but honestly, we already have several men that need romantic partners, so there’s an imbalance on the soap already. There’s just not an equivalent amount of women and men, you know. Be sure to check out our complete weekly spoilers video tomorrow for the week of July 13th through the 17th. Plus, don’t miss our Y&R weekly prediction edition, our two-part spoilers, and lots, lots more.
