Scenes from Genoa City: Tuesday, September 22, 2026
Nate (Sean Dominic) and Stephanie (Vivica A. Fox) have evolved from friends to something more. And we’re not just talking about future business colleagues. They are dating, dancing, and nerding out on medical surgeries, innovations, and articles together. Their romance has been heating up.
And according to the photos above, they will spend more time together at the GCAC. Look for their conversation to enter delicate territory. The weekly teasers reveal that they are about to define their relationship.
While Nate and Stephanie define their relationship, Nick (Joshua Morrow) holds court at Crimson Lights. It’s there that he has a chat with Phyllis (Michelle Stafford). The two will undoubtedly talk about Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) and the fact that he SAYS he’s leaving town. In his mind, he’s taking one for the team and getting Patty (Stacy Haiduk) away from everyone she’s hurt.
Nick will also catch up with Kyle (Michael Mealor), who will probably want to know how he’s doing post-rehab. We know there’s one topic that Kyle and Nick won’t be covering during their convo. And that’s Kyle’s very new relationship with Nick’s sister, Victoria (Amelia Heinle).
Speaking of Victoria, she’s at home with Claire (Hayley Erin). At one point, she’s on the phone. This may or may not have something to do with the chilling blast from the past that Claire gets. She receives a painful reminder. And in Y&R’s weekly video preview, this reminder has something to do with Claire’s crazy Aunt Jordan (Colleen Zenk).
