On Monday’s The Young and the Restless, Diane resurfaces, Traci holds Patty accountable for her actions, and a mystery unfolds for Jack and Kyle. The photo preview for June 15 features Jack with Patty at the Abbott mansion. It’s like he’s continuing to ask her about Diane’s whereabouts.

Key Takeaways

  • Diane resurfaces looking confused after weeks away from Genoa City.
  • Jack and Kyle continue to suspect Patty may know more about Diane’s disappearance.
  • A mysterious new doctor enters the story as questions about Diane’s whereabouts grow.

Scenes from Genoa City

Diane (Susan Walters) has been gone for weeks. And since she no longer lived at the Abbott mansion, it took Jack (Peter Bergman) and Kyle (Michael Mealor) a minute to realize that she was gone. Diane and Jack’s marriage was in shambles, but before she disappeared, it seemed like Diane was rethinking everything. And then…nothing (aside from an appearance by Jack’s side at a political fundraiser in the DMV).

But in the photos above, Diane looks confused, maybe even dazed, with her hands on her head. She is in a very nice location somewhere, and she’s facing someone who looks a lot like Dear John actor Jere Burns. According to TV Insider, the primetime actor makes the jump to daytime in a newly created role. His character’s name is Dr. Laurence Markham. What happened to Diane, and why is she with this doctor?

The teasers reveal that Diane has a rude awakening upon her return to Genoa City. Will she be able to explain to her family where she has been? More importantly, will they believe her?

The teasers also suggest that a mystery unfolds for Jack and Kyle, likely involving the missing Diane…and probably Patty, too. Both Jack and Kyle have accused Patty of being behind Diane’s disappearance. But she has adamantly denied it. However, Jack and Kyle remain suspicious. The photos show Jack and Patty at the Abbott mansion. Patty could have cooked up a scheme to make it look like Diane disappointed her family once again. Meanwhile, Patty seems the more mentally stable one and the better choice for Jack. Stranger things have happened in Genoa City.
