The Young and the Restless: Christine Blair Closes the Trap on Phyllis Summers

The biggest hit of Tuesday lands on Y&R, and it lands on Phyllis Summers. Christine Blair backs Phyllis into a corner, and the woman who has spent every day of the last month firing and rehiring Michael Baldwin is about to find out what it looks like when the DA stops asking nicely. The arrest was the warning shot. Tuesday is the impact.

Across town, Sharon Newman sits Sienna Bacall down and starts asking questions. Sienna swears she killed Matt Clark with a rock in the desert. Sharon wants details. Sharon wants timelines. Sharon wants a body. The interrogation is going to push Sienna to the edge of her own memory, and what Sharon finds at the bottom of that well is going to change the story for everyone in the Newman orbit.

Victor Newman and Nikki Newman reject an opportunity to reconcile. The marriage that survived four decades of Genoa City may not survive what Victor did with Patty. Nikki is not coming home, and Victor is not asking her to. The cracks are not cracks anymore. The cracks are canyons.

The Bold and the Beautiful: Hope Logan Hits Her Breaking Point With Steffy Forrester

Hope Logan has been asking Steffy Forrester the same question for a week. Tuesday is the day she stops asking and starts demanding. Hope reaches a breaking point and Steffy demands to know what she is going to do about it. The Logan-Forrester war is escalating in real time, and Hope is finally drawing her line in the sand.

Meanwhile, Dylan is put into a difficult position after the identity of his mysterious caller dropped Monday. RJ vows to protect Electra. The fashion house is splintering, the family is splintering, and the only person who seems to know exactly what she wants is the woman who has spent decades making sure nobody else does.

General Hospital: Ric Lansing Gets Tested and Sonny Corinthos Gets His Intel

Port Charles is loaded for Tuesday. Ethan delivers intel to Sonny Corinthos at the worst possible time, with Carly currently locked in her own bedroom standoff and Cassius watching Josslyn Jacks from the other side of a window under Wyndemere. Ric Lansing is tested in a way that is going to force him to pick a side, and the side he picks is going to determine the rest of his year.

Liz Webber makes a request of Laura Collins that is going to put both women in deeper than either of them is ready for. Brook Lynn and Chase discuss their future while Brook Lynn sits on the secret that could destroy it. Curtis confides in Jordan. The walls in Port Charles are getting thinner by the hour.

Days of Our Lives: Sophia Choi’s Fate Hits the Salem Headlines

Jada Hunter reveals Sophia Choi‘s fate. The Salem PD is about to confirm what the audience already knows about a girl Kristen DiMera bashed in the head with a rock and dumped in a river last week. Tate, Ari, and Holly have to process the loss together, and Salem’s teen storyline is about to take a turn nobody is ready for.

Jada Hunter gives Amy Choi the news every parent dreads. Stephanie Johnson opens up to Julie Williams. Alex Kiriakis asks Joy to stay in Salem. Philip tries to give Gabi advice. The DiMera-Salem orbit is wrestling with grief, paternity, and the fallout of Kristen’s diabolical revenge plan, and Tuesday is the day all of it hits the surface at once.
