Kyle Abbott Delivers the Ultimate Bargaining Chip

Hold onto your hats, Young and the Restless fans, because Kyle Abbott just changed EVERYTHING! He strolls into the Abbott mansion and announces he has the ultimate bargaining chip against Victor. Turns out Kyle had their security team following Victor’s family, and they witnessed Nick’s car crash with Matt Clark! When Matt took off after the accident, the Abbott security team followed him instead of waiting for police.

Kyle Abbott picks up his phone and makes a call. “Bring him in.” And just like that, the Abbott security team drags Matt Clark right through the front door! Jack is absolutely STUNNED. “How is this even possible?” He can’t believe Matt is actually alive and knows he must be behind putting both Nick and Noah in the hospital.

Matt tries to play dumb, insisting his name is Mitch Bacall and he only came to Genoa City to find his wife. Jack laughs in his face. “Sure you did!” Then Jack Abbott picks up his phone and leaves Victor a voicemail that’s going to shake Genoa City to its CORE: “We have Matt Clark here. Perhaps it’s time we make a deal!” The Abbotts now have Victor’s worst enemy as leverage! This changes EVERYTHING in the war between these families!

Phyllis Swoops In on a Heartbroken Cane

Over at the GCAC, Phyllis finds Cane drowning his sorrows at the bar and refuses to leave him alone. She says she misses “Aristotle Dumas” who was fun, good, and reckless! Cane tells her Aristotle is dead and so is his company, but Phyllis won’t let the fantasy die.

Things get BRUTAL when Cane gets a text from Lily: “Spoke to Charlie. Stop calling, stop texting. We’re officially cutting all ties.” OUCH! Cane admits Jack was there earlier wanting to team up against Victor. Phyllis immediately asks why Cane would partner with Jack when he has HER! She wants them to steal the AI back and use it to pry Newman Enterprises from Victor’s hands. Could there be better revenge?

Billy shows up with Sally and overhears Phyllis pitching her takeover scheme to Cane. He was planning to tell Phyllis their deal is off, but instead he walks away without them noticing. What is Billy going to DO with this information?!

Audra and Holden Confront Their Deadly LA Secret

At Crimson Lights, Audra and Holden finally hash out their complicated history. Audra reminds him they could both face jail time if he talks, because a man DIED and Holden dumped him in an unmarked grave! Holden insists it was an accident and he was protecting her.

We get a FLASHBACK to that night in LA! Audra and Holden return to a bar called The Shadow Room, where there’s still a bloodstain on the floor. Audra is freaking out that the man who was after her is dead and they put him in Holden’s trunk! Holden told her to go somewhere else for an alibi while he finished closing the bar, promising they’d never have to think about it again.

Back in the present, Holden agrees to keep his mouth shut, but ONLY if Audra leaves Claire alone! Audra agrees to back off, and they might actually become friends again. But can we really trust Audra to keep her word?

Billy and Sally Get Real About Their Relationship

In sweeter Young and the Restless news, Billy comes home to find Sally lounging with snacks. He admits he overheard her talking to Victoria at Christmas about worrying whether he can keep up with his improved self. Sally sighs, wishing she’d talked to him instead of his ex!

Billy says he’s made and broken promises before, and he needs to prove himself every day. Sally admits she’s scared because so much has gone wrong for her, but his commitment and honesty is SEXY! Their clothes come off, and they end up in bed together. These two are actually pretty adorable when they’re being honest with each other!


The Abbotts have Matt Clark, Phyllis wants to take over Newman, and there’s a body in an unmarked grave! What a day! Sound off below!
