The Young and the Restless spoilers for Wednesday, July 8, prove that Patty will always outsmart Jack — and that it’s time for Diane to step in.
Key Takeaways
- Patty needs Jack to keep a secret.
- Michael needs Christine’s help.
- Billy needs to know Jill’s agenda.
Patty Tries to Force Jack Into Protecting Diane
Patty (Stacy Haiduk) is claiming that, rather than her stabbing Jack (Peter Bergman), it was Diane (Susan Walters) who stabbed both him and her. We’re not sure how she intends to prove that, since Kyle (Michael Mealor) was with Diane the entire time from the moment she left Dr. Laurance Markham (Jere Burns) — Laurance Markham versus Martin Laurant (Christopher Cousins). Are we supposed to be shocked by the final twist? — house up until they found a stabbed Jack, so he can testify that she couldn’t have stabbed his dad.
But Patty thinks she has the upper hand. And she thinks she can make Jack do what she says… to save his precious Diane.
Michael Looks to Christine as Patty Escalates
We think Patty’s accusation is beyond nonsensical, but Michael (Christian Le Blanc) obviously thinks the District Attorney has enough of a case to speak with Christine (Lauralee Bell) about it.
Christine has dropped charges against obviously guilty people, such as Phyllis (Michelle Stafford), in the past. Surely, she’ll have no problem dropping charges against Diane, where there is no evidence whatsoever.
Billy Wonders Whether Jill Has Another Surprise in Store
Billy (Jason Thompson) whined to Jill (Lauren Koslow — here’s how she’s done as Jill) that she never believed in him enough. (This is his standard speech to all women before he dumps them. Shame he can’t dump his mom.) So what if Jill funded his company? She didn’t do it with enough generosity to satisfy Billy.
Now, Billy wants to know what his mom has planned for him this time. And it better be good! Or he’ll tantrum again.
