The Young & the Restless
Recaps
Kyle gives Victor a counter-offer, and Traci and Alan return
to the Parisian bar. As if soft-, pickle- or any other kind of ball had ever
been an option, Victor plays hardball with Kyle. Suddenly, hostile takeovers
seem like child’s play! As she does her darnedest to integrate Claire with her
other kids, Victoria struggles with family matters. Tea is guaranteed to be
spilled when Nikki and Nick compare notes about Adam. Wait, what? Could it be?
Are we really finally getting a romance for Traci? Seems so, as she enjoys her
time with Alan in the City of Love. We may have to take back at least some of
the grumpy things we’ve recently said about the show.
Sharon walks in on an unexpected scene, and Lily accuses
Devon of sabotage. As Sharon reminisces about her past, might we recommend that
she peruse our photo gallery of her life story? Couldn’t hurt. Devon, who
inherited zillions from Grandma Katherine, and Billy, who was born with a
platinum spoon in his mouth, vie for control. Aw, see? Now that’s a good ex.
Nick looks out for Phyllis. But why? Is she once again auditioning for the role
of her own worst enemy?
Camryn Grimes marvels
that at six months old, she’s got ‘the happiest baby I’ve ever seen’ — and that
sweet face!
Chelsea and Adam get disturbing news, and Jill stirs the
pot. Oh dear. Adam and Chelsea receive disturbing news. Will it bring Connor’s
parents one step closer to this twist? Anyone who has a sibling could tell
Devon that this will not go well for him. But he must not ask anyone with a
sibling ’cause he goes right ahead and questions Lily’s decision-making. It
seems like only yesterday that Jill gave Billy all that power at C-W, and
already, she is issuing him an ultimatum.
Joshua Morrow sends a
heartfelt message to his fans: “It’s been truly a magical ride.”
Victor uses Kyle to outsmart Jack. Which we suppose is sorta
like using a pawn to take out a king? Audra plots her next move. Fingers
crossed that it’s the one the show should have made for her ages ago! Billy is
bothered by Chelsea’s bond with Adam. Gee, why, Billy? Does it remind you of
the bond you reaffirmed with her right before you and Lily broke up so you
could be with her?
Mariah grows concerned about Sharon, and Summer confronts Audra
after seeing her with Kyle. Guess money can’t buy security after all, as Jack
and Diane worry about Kyle’s future. Teamwork makes the scheme work! Sally and
Chloe take on a new project. Sharon makes a distress call, perhaps setting into
high gear her next storyline.
Anybody else out there
find Traci the most relatable character on the canvas?
Next Week
Traci’s connection
with Alan grows even as an upset Abby makes her arrival in Paris, and Victor’s
plot causes his rivalry with Jack to reignite and explode — with Kyle in the
middle of it all. Meanwhile, sparks fly between two characters who haven’t hit
the sheets together before… and two who have. Will they be able to keep their
secret?
Restless Rant!
Sharon’s meds, Jack’s addiction, and a cheating scandal! Plus, the big business
brouhaha that makes no sense.
Monday, July 1:
We have a hunch that Neil and Dru are somewhere nodding in
approval as Devon vows to protect his family’s legacy.
Though Traci and Alan share a warm moment, we’re worried.
Very worried. Here’s why.
Does Abby arrive in Paris to support Ashley? Oui.
She’s only a few years behind us in this regard, but
finally, Jill loses patience with Billy.
Tuesday, July 2:
Victor plays his cards close to the vest. Which is
especially sneaky of him, considering that the game he’s playing is chess?
Maybe Michael figures there’s nothing he could say to Diane
that would shock her. But does that make her the right person in whom he should
be confiding?
Reminding Nikki that that’s what friends are for probably
isn’t gonna cut it when she feels guilty about causing problems for Jack.
Wednesday, July 3:
And… Kaboom! Jack confronts Kyle about working with Victor.
Jack may have slept with two of his dad’s wives, but at least he never allied
himself with The Mustache!
Though today’s the day that Chance questions Billy’s
motives, that’s a smart idea pretty much every day of every week of every month
of…
With their relationships with Victoria and Tucker decidedly
in the past tense, sparks fly between Nate and Audra.
Thursday, July 4:
Victor and Jack reignite their feud. And to think, it all
goes back to this.
Have a seat — the hot seat, Diane. How will she respond when
she is held accountable for her actions?
When Chelsea and Adam reminisce about their past, you gotta
wonder whether she’s gonna replace Sally on this list.
Friday, July 5:
Sounds to us like the spider making an offer to the fly, but
Kyle must not see it that way when he agrees to a deal with Victor.
They’ve come a long way since she tried to frame Rey for
poisoning him! Adam and Chelsea make a pact.
When in doubt, who better to call in than Mom and Dad,
right? So Summer enlists Phyllis and Nick’s help.
Speaking of Summer,
she’s sure to go ballistic if the twist Hayley Erin (Claire) teases comes to
pass.

Ridge and Steffy how she got engaged. Ridge and Steffy have a lot of catching
up to do with Douglas when they reunite with their grandson and nephew,
respectively. Once more with feeling, Hope pleads with Thomas to consider a

heartwarming 80th birthday party for John McCook — with even some of his
daytime peers in attendance.

Yellowstone fave is gone for good.

give Tom a second chance at fulfilling his dream. Who knew helping Deacon and
Finn locate Sheila was going to be such a game-changer for the homeless guy? Seriously?
The show just made the mother of all mistakes — and we’re not the only one to
think so.
Ridge questions Thomas, and Hope calls Steffy out on her
agenda. Well, duh. Luna realizes that there may be more to her mother’s past
than she’s previously revealed. The question now is, how will it impact their
present… and future? Steffy and Hope argue over the latter’s interference in
Thomas’ life. Apparently, only Steffy is allowed to meddle in Thomas’ affairs.
Tom makes a stunning declaration, and Steffy urges Thomas to
forget about Hope. Considering how much has changed since his son went abroad,
Ridge queries Thomas about his future. Poppy receives a startling reality check.

epic!

issued after a “snotty little attitude” sparked a years-long beef.

it’s steamy!

Too bad the
Forresters, Logans and Spencers never seem to have any butlers or maids, ’cause
there’s a whole lotta “messy” in need of cleaning up, on one end of the canvas,
we have Bill practically crocheting “Daddy’s Little Girl” onto throw pillows
for newfound daughter Luna’s room — never mind that she’s about as likely to
actually be his kin as the OG Sally Spectra. And on the other end of the
canvas, we have Hope dialing up the drama to well past its maximum capacity. It
seems like only yesterday, she was dreaming about tearing stepbrother-in-law
Finn’s clothes off, and now she’s mortified anew that her refusal to enter into
an insta-marriage with Thomas has left Paris wearing his engagement ring — and
not around her neck, either! Oh, and did we mention that someone is about to
meet their maker?

Tracy lays out Finn’s options and Carly vows to get back at
John. Tracy is not a woman to be taken lightly… especially when she is issuing
ultimatums! Alexis told Chase and Brook Lynn a few hard truths last week… will
the lawyer they consult today steer them in a different direction? Carly’s not
one to sit back and wait, so it should come as no surprise that she’s going to
make a very big, very bold move. Having hit a rough spot in recent weeks, it’s
definitely time for Molly and T.J. to sit down and have an honestly
conversation about their feelings… and their future. Ava is about to get an
earful from someone!

with Natalia being so defensive of her bigotry.
Finn gets increasingly desperate, and Sonny makes a move
that will leave Ava shaking in her boots! Sam has made it clear she wants Jason
to stay away from Danny. But what will be the outcome when Elizabeth talks to her

fired up and on the warpath! When Mac and Cody spend time together, will the
long-withheld truth finally come out? Alexis is about to share something that
might be a surprise to some, while Gio finds himself feeling alarmed.
During the Emmys,
General Hospital‘s top exec teased a big return that fans would be excited
about… is this who he was talking about?
Finn and Violet say goodbye, Carly fills Diane in on her FBI
troubles, and Danny spends time with Jason. Given how much Chase loves his
brother, it should come as no surprise that he’s there to support Finn in his
time of need. Wonder how Sam will feel about Jason and Danny spending time
together and getting closer? (Perhaps not coincidentally, at the exact same
time, Dante is talking to Sam about his concerns where their household is
concerned…)
Kristina Wagner shares
new beautiful tattoo in memory of her son Harrison.
Well, here’s something we never expected to see. But it
looks as if Jason and Carly are actually about to have a major clash! What
could be putting them on opposing sides? Sonny and Natalia continue spending
time together. Just how close are they about to get? Meanwhile, Blaze puts
Kristina in the hot seat. Something tells us Laura isn’t going to be
particularly pleased to find out she’s the person Ava’s seeking out. Brook Lynn
and Chase make the kind of decision that could have painful repercussions down
the road.
With Jonathan Jackson’s Lucky Spencer heading back to Port Charles…

While Ava chooses to
play dirty, Alexis makes a big move — plus, Kristina finally loses it!
Monday, July 1:
If there’s one thing we know about Ava, it’s that she’s not
above playing dirty when necessary. And as far as she’s concerned, it’s
definitely become necessary. The only question is: How low will she go?
