Phyllis is back at the top of the game on The Young and the Restless. With Cane’s help, she did the unimaginable: she took down Victor. Now, Phyllis is celebrating her long-overdue victory, but she might want to hold off on the festivities.

Key Takeaways

  • Phyllis wanted revenge on Victor after he backed out of their deal.
  • Thanks to Cane and his AI software, Phyllis got her payback.
  • Phyllis is now in control of Newman Enterprises.

Newman’s New CEO

Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) has proven she’s not the type of woman to mess with. When someone does her dirty, they better watch out because she’s plotting her revenge. Unfortunately, Victor (Eric Braeden) learned this the hard way.

The Moustache made a deal with Phyllis, giving her control of Jabot in exchange for Cane’s (Billy Flynn) AI software. But in true Victor fashion, he reneged on their deal, leaving Phyllis with nothing.

A furious Phyllis immediately began plotting her next move and sought Cane’s assistance. Thanks to a backdoor in the software, it attacks whoever controls it. Since Victor has the software, that left him and his company vulnerable.

Phyllis and Cane didn’t waste any time in swooping in and seizing control of Newman Enterprises. The redhead did what many others have failed to do, beating Victor at his own game.

Phyllis is ecstatic over her victory and can’t resist rubbing it in The Moustache’s face. However, some Y&R viewers think that Phyllis’ good mood might not last.

“Phyllis’ downfall is coming soon, she is too confident,” wrote one fan on X.

“Yep! She’s going to take the fall & wrath of Victor, while Cane just walks away,” another fan replied.

“She’s going to fall for one of Victor’s dirty deals again, and Cane will catch her, most likely. It could be Billy too, for that matter. He’s still having her watched,” one viewer theorized.

Taste Of Her Own Medicine

Y&R fans know that Victor never loses a battle. Although he’s down and out now, it won’t be long before he’s back on top. Victor always has an ace up his sleeve, and he’ll use that to save Newman and take down Phyllis.

But it might be someone else who beats him to the punch. Cane is one person whom Phyllis betrayed on her way to the top. Although Cane seems to have forgiven Phyllis, odds are he’s plotting his payback.

With Cane secretly working on a deal with Billy (Jason Thompson), the two could be trouble for Phyllis. Ms. Summers had better enjoy her time at Newman Enterprises while it lasts because she’s going to have many people coming for her.
