Younger and the Stressed sees poor Damian Kane (Jermaine Rivers) lifeless, however Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) appears to be who the attacker was going for.
So, I’m wondering if Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) might need set this up attempting to do away with Cane, perhaps even earlier than they acquired to France and so they knew who was actually the person behind the title. We’re going to speak about who needed Cane lifeless and out of the best way and who threw the knife that wound up killing Damian as a substitute.
Younger and the Stressed: Damian’s Demise and Cane’s Potential Goal – Unraveling the Thriller
All proper, so now we all know that Damian is unquestionably lifeless, not simply injured. That’s a complete bummer for poor Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) as a result of Damian genuinely cared about her and so they may have been an excellent couple. They professed emotions, they made love after which bam, stabby stabby lifeless.
However now we’re left questioning who arrange this stabbing. Was the one who threw the knife someone employed to take out Cane or was the one holding the knife the one that instantly needed him lifeless? You realize, was this organized for rent or was this an in-person assault?
Younger and the Stressed: Suspect Record
There’s a listing of suspects that Likelihood Chancellor (Conner Floyd) goes to be trying into, however I feel that he must assume lengthy and exhausting about who actually needed Cane lifeless and whether or not the individuals on the occasion are able to homicide. Victor Newman’s ruthless. Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) has killed earlier than, and there’s a lot of motive for plenty of individuals.
Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson)’s an tried killer. He’s, you already know, tried to homicide Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) greater than as soon as. Lily went to jail for the loss of life of Hillary and her child. Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) has run over individuals whereas drunk. Billy backed over someone directly, I imagine. I feel additionally whereas drunk. Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) stabbed a man to loss of life. I feel she’s killed a couple of individual. So actually, there’s no scarcity of individuals absolutely able to taking a life on Younger and the Stressed. And so they’re there on the chateau collectively.
The Younger and the Stressed Suspects: Unmasking the Potential Killers and Their Motives
So issues look worse for Cane, although, since Damian was his romantic rival. However the knife appeared geared toward Cane. And we’ve acquired some concepts of who could be behind this killing as a result of I simply don’t assume the thriller individual within the gloves was the mastermind. I feel they could have been employed for the job. So the primary individual to speak about is Holden Novak (Nathan Owens). He’s not on the occasion.
He’s again in Genoa Metropolis doing soiled work for Cane. So if it was Holden, he’s acquired the proper alibi. If he cooked this up, we all know from Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) that Holden’s a risk-taking psycho that she’s sort of afraid of.
So perhaps he’s so salty that he was working for Damian and Dumas after which he fell out with them and he acquired fired. Though Cane circled again round and rehired him. Holden’s, you already know, not essentially on his rocker. He could also be off it. He could also be so indignant at Damian and at Kane that he was keen to take a life to punish them and was concentrating on Cane.
Younger and the Stressed: Different Suspects
I imply, Holden’s not an apparent suspect due to proximity. He may have taken the job with Cane so he seems loyal and simply might be, you already know, doing issues for him, however now he’s acquired entry to get information so he may arrange this terrible factor and lashed out like a psycho. Now, I don’t know if Holden’s acquired it in him to kill someone, however Audra thinks he’s hassle. So, he’s a chance, I wish to point out, and he may have employed somebody to do it whereas he had this ironclad alibi again in GC.
The following individual to speak about is Carter, the assistant that Cane has acquired working for him. We’ve seen just a few instances. And Carter could be sick and uninterested in Cane and his video games. Perhaps Carter thought Cane was going to do him like he did Damian and Holden and fireplace and betray him.
You realize, exchange him with Phyllis or one thing. Perhaps Carter needed to cease Cane earlier than he may betray him. Abused assistants that plot towards their bosses is fairly widespread on you already know who achieved it and police crime and homicide exhibits. So, Carter might need been bored with taking orders and needed some payback. So I feel he’s a chance to think about.
Cane’s Gambit: Was the Assault a Staged Occasion or a Lethal Miscalculation?
The third suspect to speak about is Cane himself as a result of he might need employed the attacker to stab him just a bit after drugging him in order that Likelihood may check Cane for medicine and go, “Oh no, you have been poisoned and assaulted.” And it may have even been Carter doing it as a result of Cane requested him to. So this might be a transfer to maintain Cane’s unwilling visitor there longer as a plan B.
You realize, perhaps Cane set it up forward of time simply in case. After which as soon as Phyllis instructed him that the Newmans know what he’s as much as again in Genoa Metropolis, Cane might need instructed the would-be murderer, “Go for it. Simply, you already know, stab rigorously.” And perhaps Damian simply wound up in the best way. And perhaps the attacker was solely speculated to do some mild stabbing in order that Kane can be damage, nevertheless it’d be non-fatal. However then Damian wound up there and it simply sort of spiraled uncontrolled and it was an accident that anyone died.
Since Cane introduced Likelihood to the chateau and mentioned somebody was attempting to kill him, he knew one thing was up. Now perhaps that’s as a result of he acquired threatening notes or perhaps that’s as a result of he set it up. You realize, perhaps Cane knew as a result of he deliberate all of it. It undoubtedly appears attainable that it was a strategic transfer on Cane’s half that simply went sideways.

Household Ties and Hidden Agendas: Exploring Colin and Victor’s Potential Involvement within the Crime
All proper, the fourth topic on our believable killer listing could also be Colin Atkinson (Tristan Rogers). I do know Cane mentioned his dad died and that Colin modified earlier than he died, however perhaps neither of these issues are true. Should you keep in mind, Cane mentioned they offered his dad’s land in Australia to get seed cash after which they use that to begin the Dumas Empire. However perhaps Colin is alive and he and Cane disagreed over him popping out and revealing his id and pulling off the Dumas masks.
Lily hated Colin and perhaps he hated her again and he thought Cane was risking an excessive amount of for her. Perhaps Colin simply needed to scare Cane straight and the attacker went too far and too exhausting and acquired the flawed goal. Nevertheless, I do assume Colin is an extended shot as a result of Tristan Rogers is reportedly in in poor health well being and doubtless isn’t as much as reviving the character of Colin, however I assumed we wanted to say him.
Younger and the Stressed: Verdict is Victor?
The final and almost definitely possibility in my thoughts is Victor. Everyone knows “The Mustache” is ruthless and he might imagine he’s doing Genoa Metropolis a favor by taking Cane out as a result of he is aware of he’s coming for Chancellor and probably others. And it might be that Victor was planning to kill Dumas and set it up as soon as he knew the situation of the occasion even earlier than he and everyone else came upon it was Cane Ashby behind the Duma id.
Victor has been coping with him messing up his offers for years, however as a result of no person knew who Dumas actually was and he was so elusive, you already know, Victor couldn’t get to him earlier than. So perhaps he determined to make use of the occasion as an excuse to do away with a significant menace to him, to his household, to his legacy. I may completely see Victor going to extremes like this and placing Cane in hurt’s method.
The Verdict: A Random Act or a Calculated Transfer?
I do like the concept of it being both Cane or Victor, however what I’m actually nervous about is that Josh Griffith has written one thing silly and it’s a random no person who hates Cane due to some enterprise deal gone flawed or some ex-lover we don’t find out about. You realize, through the years, Cane has in all probability made a whole lot of enemies, together with Victor, however he has stepped on individuals on his method up the ladder, I’m sure.
So, for years, Cane’s been doing these massive offers and doing individuals soiled. So, considered one of them might need been searching for payback. I feel it’d be fairly boring if it have been someone that we don’t know and don’t care about, however that can be fairly believable.
I simply discover it dodgy that Cane simply occurred to have Likelihood there after which there was this homicide thriller and it’s going to drive everyone to remain longer after they all wish to go away. So Cane might need staged this as a distraction to purchase extra time to perform his aims in Genoa Metropolis, nevertheless it went off the rails and Damian is by accident lifeless. We’ll see.
