Scenes from Genoa City
After his thrashing courtesy of Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) and Billy (Jason Thompson), Cane (Billy Flynn, who’s pulling double-duty on DAYS and Y&R for the final time on Tuesday) pays a visit to the Newman Ranch. Victor witnessed Cane unconscious. The Newmans know that Phyllis weaseled their company out of Cane’s clutches. The mogul formerly known as Aristotle Dumas probably should stay away from Newman properties.
The photos above include Cane talking to Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott). She looks like she’s admonishing him for not being able to succeed at making the deal with Victor (Eric Braeden). Now, Billy has Chancellor and Newman Media. And Phyllis has the family business. Cane will be contending with more than Nikki, however. The weekly spoilers reveal that Victor gives Cane a taste of his own medicine. What does that mean?
The teasers also suggest that Sally delivers bad news to Billy. The question is whether it’s just one piece of bad news or if she unloads a truckful on her boyfriend. Billy was beyond happy to step into the lead at Chancellor once again. And hand over Newman Media to Sally. To him, it’s the best-case scenario.
To her, however, it’s anything but. Sally and Billy’s relationship and their so-called business partnership are at stake here. What is Sally about to do?
Sally’s busy in Tuesday’s episode, because she also finds time to run into Adam (Mark Grossman), who may be licking his own wounds. He is no longer the head of Newman Media, after all. Will Sally show some empathy for Adam’s plight, or will she tell him that his dad made his own bed and now all the Newmans have to lie in it?
Finally, Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan), Sharon (Sharon Case), and Nick (Joshua Morrow) are undoubtedly catching up at Crimson Lights. They have a lot to talk about. Mariah (Camryn Grimes) is back in Genoa City, and her fate is up in the air. She could go to jail, or she could get the mental health help she so desperately needs — the kind that sticks this time.
They could also continue analyzing the madness surrounding Newman Enterprises and Phyllis. Chelsea particularly wants to ensure Phyllis gets her just desserts for stealing the company. But we’re also interested in the teaser that focuses on Nick. He’s under a lot of pressure with the corporate intrigue. And he’s still in a lot of pain. What kind of bad decision does he make?
