The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Big Problems and Caustic Clashes!

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Thursday, August 23 reveal Phyllis on the warpath looking for her daughter, Sharon confessing a concern about her daughter, and Nikki making sure Ashley won’t be a threat to her daughter.

Guess Who’s Making Plans For Your Boyfriend’s Bed
Kyle (Michael Mealor) has many reasons for telling Phyllis (Gina Tognoni) about Summer’s (Hunter King) plans to plant herself in Billy’s (Jason Thompson) bed while he’s away on business in Philadelphia.
He could be doing it because he and Ashley want to make Billy look bad. He could be doing it so he can win his bet with Summer.
But, he frames it as a backward apology for telling Summer about Phyllis and Nick (Joshua Morrow).

Phyllis doesn’t care about the why. She only cares about the who, what, where, and when. So she takes off to find her daughter… for the mother of all dressings down.

New Friends
Sharon (Sharon Case) and Lily (Christel Khalil) bonded when Lily sobbed about her guilt for killing Hilary, and Sharon kept assuring her that going to prison for what was basically an accident won’t do anybody any good.
But, her own role in JT’s death is only one of the matters preying on Sharon’s mind. She’s also concerned about what Tessa (Cait Fairbanks) has gotten herself into now — and how that might hurt Mariah (Camryn Grimes).
News on Newmans
Ashley (Eileen Davidson) is focused on bringing down Billy and re-installing herself as CEO of Jabot.

Still, that doesn’t mean she’ll completely ignore it if she learns something shocking about the Newmans.
Meanwhile, Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) had made it her mission to protect the Newmans (at times, from themselves).
This means if Ashley is a threat to either Nikki or Victoria (Amelia Heinle), Mama will be there to take care of the problem.
