The Winters family is facing another tragedy on The Young and the Restless. Malcolm’s health crisis has put him in a life-or-death situation. With Lily on a search to find a donor, her journey could lead her to her ex-husband.
Key Takeaways
- Malcolm needs a bone marrow transplant to save his life.
- Holden learned that Malcolm is his father.
- Cane could come through for Lily in her time for need.
Needing A Donor
Malcolm’s (Shemar Moore) return has been filled with one shock after another. First, he revealed to Lily (Christel Khalil) that he has aplastic anemia and he needs a bone marrow transplant. Later, he met with his ex-girlfriend Stephanie (Vivica A. Fox) and learned Holden (Nathan Owens) is his son.
With the revelation that Malcolm and Holden are father and son, many believe that Holden will save Malcom’s life. However, there might be a twist to this story, and Malcolm’s donor could be someone he least expects.
A complication could arise that will keep Holden from donating. Lily’s already been ruled out as a donor, and chances are Devon (Bryton James) and Nate (Sean Dominic) will, too. So that leaves one person: Cane (Billy Flynn).
Although Cane vowed he was done with Lily after her fake kidnapping plot, deep down, he still cares about her. When he saw her crying at GCAC after her talk with Malcolm, he tried to make nice but was given the brush off. But now Lily might be seeking out her ex-husband’s help with saving her father.
Cane’s Redemption
Cane has become Genoa City’s pariah since his return. Although he’s tried to redeem himself, most everyone, including Lily and her family, have turned away from him. But now he has a chance to become a hero if he turns out to be a match for Malcolm.
There’s no doubt Cane will agree to the transplant if he’s proven to be a compatible donor. While Devon will be suspicious of Cane having an ulterior motive, Cane’s unselfishness will win over Lily.
Things have been tense between the exes and there seems to be no hope of a reunion. However, if Cane turns out to be Malcolm’s savior, it’ll be a game changer.
Lily has a preconceived notion that Cane’s a bad person who only cares about money. But if he comes through for her family, she’ll change her opinion of him. Seeing Cane help someone will remind her why she fell in love with him.
Yet, Lane’s road to a reunion won’t be without its bumps. There’s still a lot of issues to work out and trust to regain. But Malcolm’s return could be the stepping stone to Lily and Cane getting back together.
