Lily’s fake kidnapping plot had made her a town pariah on The Young and the Restless. Much of Genoa City has laid into her about her deception, including Phyllis. However, some fans think Phyllis has no right to judge Lily.

Key Takeaways

  • Lily participated in Victor’s fake kidnapping plot.
  • Upon her return, Lily’s faced the consequences of her actions.
  • Lily’s new rival, Phyllis, unleashed her wrath on Miss Winters.

Worse Than Lily

Lily (Christel Khalil) has certainly made a mess of her life. Her kidnapping scheme with Victor (Eric Braeden) has caused more harm than good.

Not only is Lily going to potentially get screwed out of Chancellor, but she may have also lost her loved ones. A hurt Cane (Billy Flynn) has already declared he wants nothing more to do with his ex-wife. Meanwhile, Devon (Bryton James) didn’t hold back in unleashing his fury on his sister’s deception.

But Cane and Devon aren’t the only ones angry with Lily. On the April 2 episode, Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) couldn’t resist harassing Lily about her fake kidnapping plot.

While some fans loved Phyllis laying into Lily, others felt she was hypocritical. Fans on Reddit brought up Phyllis’ past crimes, including faking her death in 2023.

”Her attack on Lily’s behavior is really rich given her having faked her death which is just a wee bit worse than what Lily did with her kids’ cooperation,” one poster wrote.

”Not shocking that Phyllis is a hypocrite. Her putting her kids (and others) through that heartbreak was awful. Her reasoning was a little more palpable than Lily’s but nonetheless still awful,” one viewer replied.

Lily vs. Phyllis

Before Lily left town, she and Phyllis were in the midst of a feud. Now that she’s returned, it seems like it’ll be Miss Winters vs. Miss Summers.

With Phyllis now the top dog in Genoa City, she’s got a lot of people gunning for her. Lily is one person who’ll be trying to take down Phyllis.

Lily’s desire to regain Chancellor hinges on Victor getting back Newman Enterprises. Unfortunately, Phyllis is standing in the way of Lily’s dream. But Lily is one woman who sets her mind to something and goes after it.

If Lily wants to cause Phyllis’ downfall and take Chancellor, there’s nothing stopping her. She might even seek assistance from Cane.

Cane has a bone to pick with Phyllis after she disrupted his plan to return Newman. Together with Lily, the couple might be the ones to stop a power-hungry Phyllis.
