Y&R Spoilers Wild Speculation: This Unexpected Person Framed Ashland

Y&R spoilers reveal a surprising turn in the Victoria Newman Locke vs. Ashland Locke showdown. Victoria’s plan to expose her husband’s lies is nothing if not convoluted.

Y&R Spoilers Speculation

The unwieldy plan the latest Mrs. Locke concocted involves her convincing Ashland (Robert Newman) that she thinks Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) is the one framing him. So that Ashland will frame Adam…and this will somehow end with Ashland being bounced as co-CEO of Newman-Locke. We think. Even Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) isn’t 100 percent sure what’s going on.

But what if what’s going on isn’t what either Victor, Victoria (Amelia Heinle), or even Ashland thinks. What if The Locke Ness Monster is being set up? But it isn’t by Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford), as we postulated earlier.

No One Ever Expects the Spanish Inquisition

What if it’s…Nicholas Newman (Joshua Morrow), revealed in upcoming Y&R spoilers? Hear us out. Hear us out! No one — but no one — was more upset about Victoria marrying Ashland. Not even Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson), who flew all the way to Italy to expose Ashland’s past lies. Nick wanted to expose Ashland too.

When Victor didn’t believe Billy, Billy just shrugged. Nothing new to see here. When Victor didn’t believe Nick, however, his son threw one of his famous Newman tantrums (you know, just like Daddy’s). Nick was so incensed that his family wasn’t listening to his huffing and puffing that he disowned them…yet again.

Y&R Spoilers: Cold Served Revenge

So what better way to prove he was right all along — and Papa and Company were wrong all along — than by setting up Ashland for faking his illness and making it seem like the company was what he wanted all along?

If all the Newmans turn against Ashland — like they already have done — Nick gets to sing I Told You so. And, once again, feel like the good son — even as he insists on a regular basis that he has no interest in his father’s — or anyone’s — approval.
