Key Takeaways

- Now, finally, Nick has some ammunition.
- Y&R fans are eagerly awaiting Nick’s pursuit of justice.
Nick Newman’s Long-Awaited Storyline
Nick (Joshua Morrow) learned about Sharon’s (Sharon Case) encounter with Mitch Bacall (Roger Howarth), who was revealed to be Matt Clark. Then had a face-to-face confrontation with the guy, which ended with a punch.
Fans are eagerly awaiting Nick’s own storyline. By this point, his storylines usually involve the Newmans or his love life. Over one soap opera message board, the original poster exclaimed, “Finally, a story for Nick Newman. He has not killed anyone and gotten away with it in a while, so in comes Matt Clark.”
One fan responded, “He uses his fists first. That’s Nick!! I’m sure things will go bad with this whole Matt Clark storyline.”
Someone else posted, “I kinda don’t blame Nick for this one. He and Sharon went through so much misery because of this guy.”
A third fan noted, “Was Nick totally sure it was Matt when he hit him? Also, Matt doesn’t yell assault at cops. Odd!!”
Was the Punch Justified?
Once again, there was a debate about whether Nick’s punch was justified. Sounds like a story we recently discussed before. Billy (Jason Thompson) punched out Adam (Mark Grossman) after he taunted him. At the time, fans agreed that violence is never the answer.
However, in this case, Matt Clark deserves a punch in the face. One fan argued, “Matt raped Sharon. Set Nick up for murder. Did everything he could to come between Sharon and Nick.”
Someone else echoed the same sentiments, adding, “He RAPED Sharon and taunted them for months. He also framed Nick for his own murder.”
In the thread, there was also a heavy debate as to whether Nick was a murderer. Nick didn’t kill anyone. He was wrongly accused of crimes involving Matt and Tricia Dennison (Sabryn Genet). Fans argued that it’s high time for him to get rid of this vile man, once and for all.
Matt Clark’s return is more about Nick than it is about Sharon. Fans think Nick’s anger is justified, especially when it comes to someone who raped Sharon. Are you glad Nick is finally getting his own storyline? Let us know in the comments below.
