Jack and Victor’s rivalry has been reignited on The Young and the Restless. With Victor trying to take down Jabot, Jack is rallying the troops to protect their family’s company. However, there are two important people missing.
Key Takeaways
- Jack and Victor have a long-standing business rivalry.
- Victor recently acquired Cane’s AI software and plans to use it to take down Jabot.
- Jack isn’t going down without a fight and has called on the Abbott family for help.
Abbott Family Unites
Jack (Peter Bergman) and Victor’s (Eric Braeden) business war has gone on for decades. Although it looked like the rivals had finally called a truce, Victor proved he’s back to his old tricks.
Thanks to Phyllis (Michelle Stafford), Victor has Cane’s (Billy Flynn) AI program. In true Newman fashion, Victor plans to use the program to take down Jabot. But he’s facing a tough challenge going up against Jack.
The Jabot CEO isn’t going down without a fight and has rallied the rest of The Abbotts for help. He already has Kyle (Michael Mealor) and Billy (Jason Thompson) on board. But Jack needs more help and should call on his sisters Ashley (Eileen Davidson) and Traci (Beth Maitland).
Y&R fans on Reddit believe that the Abbott sisters should be part of the storyline. “It’s supposedly all hands on deck to defend Jabot from The Moustache. So why hasn’t anyone bothered to call in Traci or Ashley for help? Ashley especially may have a slight chance of deflecting the worst of Victor’s wrath, since he still holds affection for her,” the original poster wrote.
One viewer felt that kind-hearted Traci might be able to reach through to Victor. “Traci too as she saved his life when she allowed Victor to receive Colleen’s heart.”
However, one fan thinks Ashley and Traci’s return wouldn’t make a difference. “Look man, they’re both useless in that space since they haven’t done any business for a really long time. Coming back to face Victor is pretty useless.”
Who Will Win The War?
With their family’s company and legacy at stake, The Abbotts are putting on a united front against Victor. However, given history, Victor usually comes out the winner in these battles.
Since Victor has the upper hand with the AI software, it looks like gloom and doom for Jabot. But it’s The Moustache who might come up the loser this time around.
Victor’s biggest mistake was making a deal with Phyllis and trusting Cane’s software. Chances are that Victor’s been double-crossed and the software will be used to take down Newman Enterprises instead of Jabot. Cane is a smart businessman, and Phyllis stealing his program is part of his grand plan.
With the AI program backfiring, Jabot will be saved while Victor will face ruin. However, The Moustache won’t take this lying down. The Newman patriarch will be back and ready to take down Jabot and Cane.
