Dominic’s kidnapping storyline is over on The Young and the Restless. Thanks to Detective Burrow, Mariah was stopped and Dominic was reunited with his parents. While it ended happily for Abby and Devon, it won’t be so happy for Mariah, who faces a future behind bars.
Key Takeaways
- Following a mental breakdown, Mariah kidnapped Dominic.
- Mariah was planning to take Dominic to Mexico when they were captured by Detective Burrow.
- Mariah is facing kidnapping charges.
Lock Her Away
Things just keep getting worse for Mariah (Camryn Grimes). She has been dealing with issues for the past year. Although she checked herself into a Boston clinic, it was evident she wasn’t getting better.
Upon her release, she began having hallucinations of Ian (Ray Wise), who convinced her to kidnap Dominic (Ethan Ray Clark). Mariah followed Ian’s orders and went on the run with Dominic, causing panic for Abby (Melissa Ordway) and Devon (Bryton James).
A search began for Dominic, with Abby and Devon pulling out all their resources to find their son. With the help of Detective Burrow (Matt Cohen), they tracked down Mariah and were able to stop her before she crossed the border. Now that Dominic’s been rescued, there’s the question of what happens to Mariah.
Burrow told her she’ll be charged with kidnapping, but as for whether she’ll go to prison, that remains to be seen. If Y&R fans on Reddit have their way, Mariah would be behind bars. “Mariah…Lock her up!!!” declared one fan.
“What she’s done is criminal. Sharon your daughter deserves prison,” wrote one viewer. “Now that this storyline with Mariah is over, send her to prison,” one commenter replied.
Trip to Fairview
Abby and Devon made it clear they want Mariah to get help for her issues. Sharon (Sharon Case) also mentioned that her daughter is unwell and needs help. With the trio’s support, the DA might decide to go easy on Mariah and send her to Fairview instead of prison.
Mariah’s storyline is far from over, and there are answers still needed about her hallucinations and why she kidnapped Dominic. With Mariah at Fairview, perhaps she’ll finally get to the root of her problems and get back on the path to wellness.
But her stay could also open up more problems. Her new roommate Patty (Stacy Haiduk) might try to be a friend, but could cause Mariah more distress.
Then there’s also the question of the Ian hallucinations. While it seems to be all in Mariah’s head, speculation is that the cult leader might be alive and back to wreak more havoc on Mariah.
