The Young & the Restless

Last week...

Audra fumes at Holden for exposing her while [Spoiler] considers stopping Victor’s next move — plus, Phyllis feels the need to deliver a big reminder. Perhaps fearing that since she already double-crossed Cane, she’ll double-cross him, too, Victor reminds Phyllis about the terms of their agreement. Billy and Sally share a difference of opinion that’s significantly more important than whether pineapple belongs on pizza. Audra warns Holden to not reveal their secrets. Well, any more of them, anyway.

Mitch issues a murderous order, Sharon lobs a deadly accusation — plus, [Spoiler] catches Noah kissing Sienna. Victor makes a confession to Nikki about company business. Sick and tired of playing the victim, Sharon takes matters into her own hands. Seriously, though, how much more can the heroine take before this happens? Although Nick makes a shocking discovery about Sienna, it’s gotta pale in comparison to the one that he made about Mitch… doesn’t it?

Sharon grabs hold of Mitch while delivering a deadly threat — plus, Sienna gets a glimpse at who her husband really is. Sharon and Matt Clark trade threats… which makes us regret all the more that we’re headed for a dead end. Stop us if you’ve heard this one before: Billy breaks a promise to Sally. Nick tells Sienna the truth about the monster to whom she’s unwittingly married.

Tessa delivers shocking news to Daniel — plus, Cane’s cryptic statement leaves [Spoiler] baffled. Victor and Adam seize an opportunity to attack Billy. What? You didn’t expect them not to, did you? Having reentered Genoa City society playing offense, Cane is once again forced to defend himself. Cricket and Danny finalize their wedding plans. “I now pronounce you husband and bug!”

Lily snaps after finding Cane and Phyllis in a compromising position — and [Spoiler] makes Noah disappear. Lily catches Phyllis and Cane in a compromising position. Just another reason we’re actually looking forward to some twists on the show. (More on that here.) We’re about to find out what the new Noah is made of when he’s backed into a corner. As Nick stares down Matt Clark, Joshua Morrow tackles a real-life threat: “Be smart.” Forgetting how their relationship just sort of petered out, Victoria and Nate have difficulty ignoring their chemistry.

Coming up...

Is it hot in here, or is it just … Cane and Phyllis strike a match and catch fire, Nick and Sharon make moves that may well get them.

Monday, November 17:

Phyllis and Cane’s alliance takes an interesting turn — toward the bedroom, perhaps?

Now that the dust has settled after their tryst, Claire and Holden clear the air.

Lily’s mad as hell, and today, it’s Adam and Chelsea that she puts on blast for their scheming.

Tuesday, November 18:

Step aside, son: Victor helps Nick retaliate against Matt Clark.

When Jack interrogates Nikki, will she be able to give her ex the info he wants?

Oh, it is on! Phyllis and Cane crank up the heat. Wonder which one of them will get burned first.

Speaking of Cane, we may have figured out why he behaves so strangely.

There’s no keeping Audra down. She’s busy plotting her next move.

At the same time, Sharon stands her ground with the nefarious Matt Clark. Is she actually making a fatal mistake?

“I now pronounce you husband and Bug.” Family and friends gather to bear witness as Danny and Cricket retie the knot.




The Bold & the Beautiful

Last week...

As Electra recommits to Will, Katie reunites with Bill… but dark clouds are forming overhead. Is it important, or is Finn just missing his wife when he pays Steffy an impromptu visit? After reminding Brooke of Bill’s involvement in freeing Luna, Ridge puts forth a suggestion. Perhaps an adjoining cell as punishment for Bill’s poor decision-making?

Deacon and Taylor hide their simmering attraction — barely — while his kids express their feelings loudly and clearly. Taylor tells Deke the truth, but he has to wonder whether it’s the whole truth. Daphne states once again that Carter will have to work to prove he’s the right man for her. Eh, pretty sure it won’t be that difficult, considering that she never moved on after he stuck with Hope. Steffy insists that Taylor would love to come to open-mic night. Ah, that must be what leads to this romantic moment under the stars.

Will’s new house leaves Luna hell-bent on playing homewrecker — plus, Deacon and Taylor share an intimate moment. Will is thrilled that Katie is moving back in with Bill. Apparently, Junior is unaware of the health crisis that appears to be looming. Hope confides in Steffy about Deacon’s therapy sessions. If we were Hope, we might ask why, if Taylor is such a good shrink, she sent Deacon back to wacko Sheila!

Will and Electra’s blissful beach day is marred by an uninvited guest — plus, Bill’s already raising Katie’s eyebrows. Speaking of loco, as Luna gazes at a photo of Will in prison, she vows not to lose him. Um, as if she ever actually had him in the first place. It’s #NewDigs for Electra and Will as they settle into the beach house. Oh, to be young, gorgeous, and rich as hell.

Well, that was easy! Luna’s out of prison and heading straight for Will. Get those candles lit, ’cause Steffy and Finn are about to get romantic. Meanwhile, all hell is set to break loose as Luna plans her great escape.

Coming up...

Brace yourselves, folks, ’cause it looks like it’s wall-to-wall Luna-cy...

The double murderess and rapist somehow manipulated guard Stowell into looking away for long enough to allow her to sneak into a laundry cart that was headed outside the prison. Based on the promo the show aired, Luna even seemed to have time to bundle up some bedding under her sheet so it would look like she hadn’t gone anywhere.

Seriously, though, every kid knows that trick!

It doesn’t take long, of course, before Luna’s escape is realized. (So there is some security at this prison; it’s not adequate, but it exists.) The first call that’s made appears to be to Bill and Katie, who can’t believe their ears.

Next thing we know, Luna’s mother, Poppy, and grandmothers Sheila and Li are at the beach house along with Ivy to help search for the nut job.

Luna is nearby, too. As Deputy Chief Baker tries to keep a handle on the situation, the fugitive is chased down the beach in the dark. Will she be apprehended as easily as she broke out of prison? Or could something happen under the cover of night that will change the direction of all of these characters’ lives? That chase looks intense.




Beyond the Gates

Last week...

It’s all-out war between Eva and Kat, which means a few innocent parties who happen to be in the vicinity will be dragged into the fray! There’s a very sexy new guy in town, and he’s about to be targeted by none other than Hayley. Apparently, killing Bill isn’t enough to keep the would-be merry widow busy! Parenting teens ain’t easy, so it’s not surprising that Martin and Smitty find themselves trying to figure out the best way to do so!

Kat warns Ted she’ll never forgive Eva — plus, Dani makes a shocking decision! Hope Andre’s in the mood for a sit-down, because Anita and Vernon want to have a conversation with Dani’s hubby. Meanwhile, she’s getting ready for her big Forrester Creations photo shoot! Ted and Leslie each find themselves trying to deal with the fallout from Kat and Eva’s feud. Shanice is there for Derek, even as we’re sitting here hoping she values herself more than to become his rebound girl!

Andre’s confession prompts Dani to make a decision — plus, [Spoiler] kisses someone new! Dani and Andre’s young marriage could face a challenge as they make a decision regarding their future. Vernon’s been keeping secrets, but he’s worried the proverbial cat might soon claw its way out of the bag! Nicole grants a request, but warns that what happens next could have repercussions! Things are going to be awkward as you-know-what when Smitty runs into Kat, whom you’ll recall kinda sorta set Samantha down the path that led to the teen nearly losing her virginity to walking ick Nathan! Is Derek about to turn up the heat with someone new… and we don’t mean Shanice!

Hayley covers her latest lie with an even bigger one — plus, Leslie scores a victory! Already suspicious of Hayley’s connection to Randy, Joey catches one of them in a lie and demands answers! Naomi and Jaco, having dinner with Bill and Hayley, have all kinds of awkward potential. But wait until Bill’s daughter and her hubby make a surprising discovery! Anita is put in a tough position where Leslie is concerned. Thoughts of her late husband push Vanessa to help out a friend in need.
