The January 13 episode of The Young and the Restless made it clear that Connor is a real Newman. Sure, he’s got some Adam in him, but now we have proof positive that he is really just Victor redux.
The Man, the Myth, the Legend
Victor (Eric Braeden) is the center of all life in Genoa City, as it should be. He controls his wife, he controls his kids, he controls people he has no business controlling. Then, whenever he goes too far—which is about once a year—and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) or Victoria (Amelia Heinle) or Nicholas (Joshua Morrow) or Adam (Mark Grossman) or even the one he regularly forgets, Abby (Melissa Ordway), call Victor out on his behavior and make it seem like they won’t be swallowing everything he has to say without question, Victor conveniently has a health scare.
And then they all come rushing back to his side to apologize for ever doubting him and to beg him to please, please, please stay with them. They could never leave without his wisdom, counsel, and, of course, love.

The Offspring
From the time Connor (Judah Mackey) returned to Genoa City with Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan), he has pushed for his parents to get back together. Then, on the January 13 episode, Connor suddenly changed his tune: What do Adam and Chelsea think? That he’s some little kid who spends all his time dreaming of a Mommy and Daddy reunion. Pshaw. Nothing could be further from the truth.
But, you know, now that they’ve dragged it out of him…he’s been feeling a little down lately. Do you know what would turn his frown upside down? If Chelsea were to move into Adam and Connor’s new home. Not so that his parents could reconnect. But so that, in case Connor’s OCD was to flare up again, he’d have his beloved Mother and his dear Father together to help him work through his woe. Wouldn’t that be nice? Then Connor returned to the small, cramped, non-joy-producing apartment he is currently forced to share with his mother.

Spitting Image
Victoria, Nick, and Adam often debate who Victor’s favorite child is. (Abby knows she doesn’t get to play.) They argue about who is the most like him. But stand back, pretenders to the throne: We have seen the real Victor heir…and he is Connor Newman. All bow down before this tiny Victor clone. And beware.
