Wednesday, September 3:

Recap: While Nicole unleashes hell on Ted, Leslie makes a surprising move against Eva.

Ted and Nicole’s party would’ve wound up being a blast, but we had no idea it would be this explosive. But as Leslie’s venomous revelations come to light, the community of Fairmont Crest will be rocked to its very core. Look for longtime relationships to be tested, loyalties to be questioned, and lives to be changed forever!

The Bold & the Beautiful

Last week…

In addition to nursing one wicked hangover, Will is confused about what transpired the previous night. When he figures out what really happened, he may be sorry he’s no longer confused. Carter’s proposal is interrupted by Ridge. Wait, so like, Carter’s proposing again… even though he and Hope are already engaged? Though we’ve questioned Bill’s judgment for some time now, he’s still the one who tries to help Liam figure out what he wants to be in his next chapter.

Sheila makes herself an accessory to a crime, and Liam kisses Hope. Will struggles with guilt over a drunken night that he can’t remember. When Liam makes a heartfelt plea to Hope, will she be forced to make the decision? Ridge and Carter make a pact. Which only counts, need they require reminding, if it’s sealed with a pinky swear.

Katie gives Will questionable advice, and Deacon pushes Hope to get back with Liam. Hope confesses everything to Deacon. Everything? What “everything”?

Preview! Sheila’s marriage is on the line as she faces an impossible dilemma.

A desperate Will turns to Sheila for help, and Carter wants to marry Hope right away. Will goes to Sheila for answers or at least clues as he desperately tries to piece together his memories.

Sheila warns Luna, and Beth takes Hope on a guilt trip. Talk about working at cross purposes! Just as Liam is expressing his determination to reunite his family, Carter is ready to elope with Hope.

O.M.G! What Luna doesn’t know could literally kill her!

Coming up…

Unroll the welcome mat, ’cause Matthew Atkinson returns as prodigal son Thomas. But at least for starters, his main concern doesn’t seem to be making trouble for ex-lover Hope and her new fiancé, Carter (whose proposal she readily accepted after turning down Thomas over and over again).

On the contrary, the designer isn’t fixated on the one who got away; he’s all about seeing to it that nothing stops Ridge and Taylor from retying the knot. In fact, he goes so far as to tell perpetual obstacle Brooke point blank, “My dad’s marrying my mom. Don’t do anything to come between them ever again.”

That will certainly go over well!

Of course, we fully expect that Thomas’ homecoming will have a major impact across the canvas, not just on the Brooke/Ridge/Taylor triangle. Consider all the pots he could stir here.

In other developments, it falls on Ivy, of all people, to remind Hope that “there’s only one woman Liam loves… and that woman is you.” Eh, except when it’s Steffy.

Later, Liam waxes rhapsodic about Beth. “That is our daughter,” he tells Hope, “Our whole life.” Eh, except for your other daughter, Kelly. Remember her, Liam?



The Young & the Restless

Last week…

Victor blackmails Cane, and Nick and Adam disagree. Ripping a page from his classic Victor Newman playbook, the crafty tycoon turns the tables on Cane. File this under major progress: Nick and Adam put their differences aside to help their family. Though Lily interrogates Holden, he isn’t likely to provide the answers for which she’s looking.

Cane rocks Phyllis’ world after contemplating life and Colin’s final moments. Gather round for story time — backstory time, even — as Cane reveals details about his years away from Genoa City.

Cane’s visit leaves Billy off-kilter, and Nick tries to help Phyllis. Nate confesses to Devon. Wonder if Lily is reminded anew of her past with Cane. Nick does damage control with Phyllis.

Young & Restless recruits Days of Our Lives vet Tamara Braun to play a mystery woman with ties to [Spoiler].

Preview! Kyle’s bold move could cost him Claire for good!

Jack wants payback after a clash with Victor, and Claire walks out on Kyle. Never having heard the adage about what to do if you don’t have anything nice to say, Victor and Jack trade barbs over family matters. As Kyle makes a bold move, Victoria worries about Claire’s future. Could Kyle be popping the question to his girlfriend?

Kyle cooks up a terrible plan, and Amanda returns to Phyllis and Cane bickering. Unafraid to swing for the fences, Nikki makes a big change at Chancellor. Amanda returns home to a new assignment. Family gossip sesh activated: Billy tells Jack about Cane’s latest plan.

Young & Restless’ Tucker McCall is back in a big way… but not how you think.

Coming up…

Victor rallies the troops, Kyle gets advice he may or may not wind up listening to, and two Vesper-drinking pals join forces against a common enemy.

Monday, September 1:

From the moment Diane returned — both to Genoa City and from the dead — we suspected she wasn’t nearly as reformed as she claimed to be. Will Jack wind up feeling the same way after finally seeing his wife’s true colors?

Kyle has an important question to ask Claire. And yes, it’s that question. Will he get the response he’s hoping for?

One person who probably will not get the answer she’s looking for is Audra, who goes to Nate asking for a second chance. Good luck with that, hun.

 Tuesday, September 2

If Cane thought Victor would be a pushover… well, we might have to question his sanity. The newly returned exec is about to learn the hard way what dealing with Victor is really like!

Claire may not be the same dangerous woman we first met, but she still has a few tricks up her sleeve… as she catches Kyle off guard!

Amanda and Phyllis haven’t seen eye-to-eye on everything of late, but the legal eagle is still ready to take a risk for her gal pal.

Wednesday, September 3:

Kyle gets a bit of advice from his parents. (Although with their track record, he might consider doing the opposite of whatever they recommend!)

Watch out, Audra, because two people (Holden and Claire) who aren’t particularly thrilled with you right now are about to team up… and one guess who their target is!

It sounds as if things are about to get pretty serious between Billy and Sally as he makes a commitment!

Thursday, September 4:

Victor is usually the one making grand gestures, but Nikki turns the tables on him with a splashy, romantic evening!

How will Michael feel about the new opportunity that is about to lay itself at his feet?

Claire and Audra face off!

Friday, September 5:

If it’s a day of the week ending with a Y, then Victor must be preparing to lead the Newman clan onto the proverbial battlefield!

Never one for subtlety, Phyllis winds up overplaying her hand.

If Cane takes Lily’s advice to lay it all on the table, will that score him points with his ex?

Facing her, Gwen glares and spreads her hands. One holds a juice box. Given Kristen’s shocking courtroom confession, it’s not surprising that Brady has a few questions for his ex!
