The Young and the Restless spoilers for Friday, January 16, see a surprise figure reaching out to Jack, while Diane makes a move of her own.
Key Takeaways
- Jack gets a visit from Nick.
- Diane turns to Michael.
- Noah goes after Matt.
Next on Y&R
Victor (Eric Braeden) did pretty much everything but laugh in Jack’s (Peter Bergman) face when Jack came to him to make a deal. Victor doesn’t make deals! Victor wins! Alone! You got that?
Nick (Joshua Morrow) is a lot like his father. But he’s not that stupid. He knows that he periodically needs to ask for help. Even if it’s from Jack. Nick turns to his former stepfather. Because his father is currently otherwise preoccupied.
Tall Tales
While Jack hears Nick out, Diane (Susan Walters) goes to Michael (Christian Le Blanc). He’s still her friend. Even if he’s also Victor’s whipping boy. But that can be useful in this case.
Surely, Michael has realized just how awful Victor is by now, right? How could he not have? And Michael is Jack’s friend, too? Surely, he wants to help the person whom Victor wanted to destroy… even if it costs him his own family.
Michael couldn’t still be Team Victor… could he? What would Lauren (Tracy Bregman) say? Again.
Third Generation
Victor is trying to fight the same computer program that he was happy to sic on Cane (Billy Flynn) and Jack, and he’s furious that anyone would dare use it against him. Nick is disobeying doctors’ orders and checking himself out of the hospital, Against Medical Advice, so he can make a deal with Jack.
Noah (Lucas Adams) still thinks he can take on Matt (Roger Howarth, who is bringing some much-needed comedy) singlehandedly, and he’s got some new information to make this happen! Yup, he’s a hot-headed Newman, alright.
