Young and the Restless spoilers for Feb 16-20 suggest Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) is stealing everything, and Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) is going to be raging.
As we always do on early edition day, we start with what’s coming the rest of this week. Then, we’re going to dive into what’s coming next week.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: This Week’s Major Drama
On Wednesday, February 11th, Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) updates Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) that the police know where Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) is. They’ve confirmed Dominic Chancellor (Ethan Ray Clark) is with her, and she is going to be arrested soon.
Tessa tells him that Mariah lost interest in her and their daughter Aria Porter-Copeland (Millie Ingle). Tessa said that after all that, she just decided to stop fighting her feelings for Daniel. In the end, Tessa has no regrets about being with Daniel. He has no regrets either.
Y&R Spoilers: Mariah, Dominic, and the Emotional Standoff
Tessa says that Mariah is facing prison once she’s back and will need support. The question is whether that support will come from her or if she’ll leave that to Sharon Newman (Sharon Case).
Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway), Devon Hamilton Winters (Bryton James), Sharon, and Detective James Burrows (Matt Cohen) are on a private plane. They are heading to stop Mariah from leaving the country with Dominic. And they all agree that Mariah needs help. They just need to get Dominic to safety.
Mariah is in New Mexico. She was heading for the border. They debate how to approach her safely, and in the end, they decide Sharon needs to do it instead of the cops.
Dominic’s Ordeal and the Private Plane Rescue on Young and the Restless
Mariah is driving with Dominic. He’s complaining that he wants his parents. Mariah says they don’t want him right now. Dominic freaks out when Mariah says they are going to their new home. He doesn’t like her calling him Bowie.
He starts yelling at her to stop and call his parents. Dominic unbuckles his seatbelt to grab the phone. Mariah is yelling and crying. Then she rants at Dominic for not appreciating her, and she says sorry. Dominic calls Mariah mean, and she says they can’t go home.
She talks about how she has a more significant bond with him than Abby does because he grew in Mariah’s belly. Dominic nods off as Mariah talks again about being his mommy and Dominic being her son. She has pulled over for this whole confrontation.
Y&R Spoilers: Sharon and Abby Reunite with Dominic
Then, Sharon gets in the car with her and says she brought some special people to see Dominic. The kid wakes up. Abby and Devon are there. Dominic runs to them, and they get him loaded onto the private plane on Young and the Restless.
Dominic tells them Mariah was taking him to Mexico. So, Dominic says that he dreamed his daddy Chance Chancellor (Conner Floyd) was watching over him from heaven. They tell Dominic that the police are going to take Mariah to a doctor because she is really sad.
Devon calls Tessa and lets her know they have Dominic. He is safe, and Mariah has been arrested. Tessa is crying in Daniel’s arms. She says she has to let Mariah go. She is ready to move on with Daniel.
Detective Burrows lets Mariah know that once they’re back in Genoa City, she is going to be charged with kidnapping.
Emotional Fallout for Mariah and Sharon on Young and the Restless
Sharon is there with Mariah. She tells her that moms find their daughters when they’re lost. Sharon tells Mariah she loves her no matter what. They will get through this. Mariah is crying on her mom’s shoulder. She clearly needs help.
On Thursday, February 12th, Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) is stunned when Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) shows up at the Abbott mansion really worked up and upset. I wonder if she’s going to tell Jack about Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) kidnapping.
Big Moves for Jack Abbott and Nikki Newman on Y&R
We know that Nikki is going to tell Jack she’s worried about what Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) is going to do next. She fears he may go too far beyond what she can tolerate. Jack and Nikki are hugging, and he’s comforting her.
Diane walks in and is really irritated to see Nikki in Jack’s arms. Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) spies on Phyllis and Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) plotting. She may overhear Phyllis bragging about chloroforming Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn).
Phyllis, Billy, and Victoria: Plotting and Power Plays
We know that Phyllis is rushing to transfer assets over to them so Victor can’t get them back from Cane. It looks like Newman Enterprises is meant for Phyllis, Chancellor is meant for Billy, and he asked for Newman Media to go to Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope). Phyllis didn’t like that but agreed to it.
I don’t even know if Billy’s girlfriend would accept it. I don’t think she would. Also, Victor realizes something shocking about Cane. On Thursday, we’ll see Victor over at the Cane train. He is in the bedroom when Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) walks in and sees Cane lying there, still as a corpse.
At first, Adam worries that Victor did something to Cane. Of course, we know Phyllis just chloroformed him. Unless they figure it out, they may think Cane’s drunk. They are definitely going to realize he’s unconscious.
Young and the Restless: Adam, Chelsea, and the Valentine’s Day Surprises
On Friday, February 13th, Adam is romancing Chelsea Lawson Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) for Valentine’s Day. I’m sure they are going to try to forget all the Newman drama, at least for the day. Billy is going over the top to try and prove himself to Sally. But I think she will be upset if Billy tries to give her Newman Media for Valentine’s Day.
I don’t think Sally will like Billy trying to give her something that’s stolen. Especially if it’s because Billy’s conspiring with Phyllis. That’s not going to help. Plus, Sally is happy with Abbotcom. If Newman Media is some sort of grand gesture from Billy, I think it’s going to fall flat.
Meanwhile, Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) is working overtime to impress Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) for Valentine’s Day. It looks like he’s not going to accept the breakup. He may head to Los Angeles.
Y&R February Sweeps: What’s Next?
The week of February 16th through the 20th is the last full week of February sweeps. Sweeps wraps on the 25th. The following week we’ll have three more episodes of sweeps. Sharon supports Mariah as she is back in Genoa City facing criminal charges for kidnapping Dominic. Christine Williams (Lauralee Bell) is back soon, likely to represent Mariah.
I have no doubt Christine is going to enter an insanity plea as she should because Mariah is totally unhinged. Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) pain grows. It’s not getting any better. He’s going to be out of his prescription pills soon that he and Sharon got from the doctor. By the end of sweeps, I think Nick’s growing pain and medication crisis is going to move to the front burner.
Returns to Genoa City: Lily, Patty, and Matt Clark
Lily is going to be back on screen in March. Christel Khalil is already back filming after giving birth to baby number three. Stacy Haiduk is returning as Patty Williams. She will also be on air in March. Maybe interacting with Mariah.
I do suspect we may get one last hurrah from Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) by the end of sweeps. There is a spoiler saying, just when you think he’s gone, he’s back. There’s one last big confrontation and conflagration.
Noah and Sienna: Romance on the Edge on Young and the Restless
Noah’s heart is in Sienna’s hands, but I doubt she is going to stay with him. It’s probably going to send him back to Genoa City alone and brokenhearted. Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin) search for dirt on Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) intensifies while she and Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) are in LA. Claire wants to head to that gallery to get some answers. Sienna may give her some more info too.
Diane, Sally, Cane & Phyllis: Who Comes Out on Top?
Diane is just about over Jack being so close and so unreasonably loyal to his ex-wife Nikki. Sally is unsure what to do about Billy. We’ll find out if Cane was knocked out long enough for Phyllis to get everything she wanted.
If so, the big losers are going to be Cane and Victor. If you remember, Cane called Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan) and said, “Destroy the AI and draw up paperwork to transfer the assets back to Victor.” So, I do suspect the AI is destroyed. But with Amanda doing paperwork while Phyllis is moving things electronically, I think she may beat Amanda to the punch.
