Patty’s return has shaken up The Abbotts on The Young and the Restless. Miss Williams is currently living the good life in the Abbott mansion, but her reign of terror won’t last long. There’s many people who want to take down Patty, but it’s Traci who might do the honors.
Key Takeaways
- Patty is responsible for the death of Traci’s daughter, Colleen.
- Traci has been mentioning Colleen lately and expressing her hatred towards Patty.
- Patty might finally pay for Colleen’s death.
No More Miss Nice
Patty’s (Stacy Haiduk) return has centered around Jack (Peter Bergman) and Diane (Susan Walters). Her quest to break up the couple has impacted other members of the Abbott family. Traci (Beth Maitland) and Kyle (Michael Mealor) were kicked out of their own home so Jack could appease Patty.
Seeing Patty causing more destruction for her family has infuriated Traci. It also brought up bad memories since Patty is responsible for the death of her daughter, Colleen (Tammin Sursok).
In 2009, Patty kidnapped Colleen and held her captive at the Abbott cabin. Colleen managed to escape and tried to use a canoe to get further away from Patty, but drowned in the lake.
Colleen’s death was heartbreaking for Traci and the Abbotts. Patty’s return has Traci reliving the saddest day of her life.
Traci is known to be mild-mannered, but recently she’s expressed her anger towards Patty. During one confrontation with Miss Williams, Traci reminded her about Colleen and how she’d never forgive Patty. Then, on the June 30th episode, Traci broke down in front of Kyle, confessing she wants to strangle Patty for Colleen’s death.
Traci losing her cool has fans rallying around the beloved heroine. They’re also hoping that Traci is the one to end Patty’s reign of terror.
Traci Is The Perfect Choice
Jack and Diane have been Patty’s latest targets, so it’s understandable why fans believe they’ll take down Miss Williams. But Traci is the one who might end Patty once and for all.
Patty never paid for Colleen’s death. After she was caught, she was sent to a mental institution for help. Yet, as seen throughout the years, Patty is free to come and go as she pleases.
Although Patty is claiming she’s changed, everyone, including Traci, knows that’s not true. With Diane missing and Jack in potential danger, Traci is worried they’ll suffer the same fate as Colleen.
Although Traci’s never been a leader, she’s shown she’s ready to take charge when it comes to Patty. Having Traci be the one to take down Patty would be a huge shock, but would garner her much support.
Traci and Patty’s showdown has been 17 years in the making. It’s long overdue for Colleen to get justice, and Traci could make it happen.
