Young and the Restless early weekly spoilers for December 15th through the 19th reveal Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) busting Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) and lies getting exposed.
As we always do on early edition day, we start with what’s coming the rest of this week and then we dive into next week.
Young and the Restless Spoilers: Jack & Kyle Gear Up for Victor’s Attack
On Wednesday, December 10th, we’ve got Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) telling Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) that he’s glad his dad John Abbott (Jerry Douglas) doesn’t have to see them shutting down Jabot because of this AI issue. But Kyle thinks that they are ready for Victor. And Kyle tells Jack that Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin) has some issues with Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) and that there’s more simmering tension there. And Kyle thinks Audra actually might be the key to him winning back Claire which is kind of interesting.
Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) and Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) get ready for the AbbottComm launch party. They’re doing some last-minute prep-work before they get dressed and show up. Billy is really excited to be her second in command. He thinks Sally is going to kill it at the party and running the company. And she tells Billy that they’re going to show all their haters what they can do. Audra shows up to check in on the pre-party work, wishes them success, and brings Sally a gift. And she promises Audra that she still plans to hire her as soon as she can talk the investor into it.
Y&R Spoilers: Kyle & At It Again
Jack and Kyle show up to also check in before the party. And Sally wants to know if Audra is going to show up to the big event. And Kyle says Audra should absolutely be there because Sally is her only friend. So Kyle and Audra wind up bickering and Audra snarks about Claire dumping him and Kyle’s hinting that they reconciled. Audra says she may be at the party or she may not and she takes off.
Jack tells Billy that he really likes the AbbottComm logo and they talk about Victor possibly being a threat to AbbottComm, but Sally says they’ve taken precautions against the AI. And Jack tells Billy (Jason Thompson) that Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) had the Jabot tech team set up AI intrusion alerts that will trace any incursion into their system back to its source. So, it looks like Diane’s plan continues to be to get proof to prosecute Victor for cyber crimes. And Kyle loves that idea. I love that idea, too.
Newman Family Bombshell: Matt Clark’s Shocking Return on Young and the Restless
The Newmans are all back from Los Angeles. And Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) hugs Noah Newman (Rory Gibson), glad that he is alive and well after that near-death car crash. Victor warns Sienna that she is welcome there on the ranch, but he’s got his eye on her. So, Nikki introduces Noah to Claire, who of course she was there when he was in a coma, but they didn’t get to meet. And he introduces Sienna as his “friend.” That’s in quotes, right?
Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) and Chelsea Lawson Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) show up. They get to meet Sienna, too, and greet Noah. Then Victor drops the bombshell that Matt Clark is alive, and Sienna admits that’s her husband, but she thought his name was Mitch. Nikki is absolutely stunned. Chelsea’s clueless because she doesn’t know the Matt Clark story. So Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) fills her in and Noah reveals that Matt’s the one who ran him off the road and nearly killed him. So Sharon’s worried that Matt’s going to show up in Genoa City to try and kill Noah again.
Y&R Spoilers: Nikki Spies on Victor
So, Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow), Sharon, and Noah head out. And then Chelsea asks Victor if Noah’s involved with Sienna, but Victor’s a little vague about it. And then Nikki asks Victor to tell her what he’s up to and he says nothing and tells Nikki that she needs to stop worrying about this. Adam and Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) are planning to attend the AbbottComm launch party, but Nikki’s not sure if she’ll go. So, Victor and Adam discuss unleashing the AI on Jabot once they’re alone.
And they confirm they’re going to do it while everybody’s at the launch party. Victor is very smug and talking about how he’s going to destroy Jack tonight and Nikki eavesdrops and hears all of this, but then Michael Baldwin (Christian Jules Leblanc) calls to say that Jabot has shut down and they are no longer at risk from the AI because they’ve shut down their servers or whatnot. This is all terrible writing.
Genoa City on High Alert: New Alliances and Rising Tensions
Sharon takes Sienna and Noah home with her. Sienna likes how close the Newmans are, and she’s glad that Sharon’s letting her stay there until Matt’s locked up. Noah says the ranch is the safest place to be. I disagree. Jordan Howard (Colleen Zenk) snuck into the ranch. Ian Ward (Ray Wise) snuck into the ranch. Cameron Kirsten (Linden Ashby) snuck into the ranch. You guys get the idea, right? So, of course, Matt can sneak onto the ranch.
Nick drags Noah away to talk about security precautions in case Matt shows up in Genoa City. And Sharon tells Sienna that she’s not holding what Matt did against her, but she wants to get some things straight. And Nick and Noah head over to the GCAC to rent a room under his and Sienna’s name to throw Matt off the trail if he comes to Genoa City. So they run into Audra and she and Noah (Rory Gibson) swap some looks. She was not expecting to see her ex back in town on Young and the Restless.
On Thursday, December 11th, we’ve got Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) telling Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) she’s going to go to the AbbottComm launch party, but thinks it’s going to be boring. So he offers to go with Lily to make things more fun and she ends up having a change of heart about Cane. So, she may be impressed to hear that he cut Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) out of his life. Audra strikes a bargain with Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) on Thursday, and I’m sure this is about their dirty secret past. And Sharon is grilling Sienna about what are her intentions with Noah.
Friday’s Young and the Restless Spoilers: Protective Instincts and Party Problems
On Friday, December 12th, we’ve got Nick making a move to protect Sharon. We’ve already seen Nick taking preventative measures like amping up security. I wonder if he’s going to move into Sharon’s house to protect her. That would be nice because we need Nick and Sharon to get this reunion on the road and actually do a little something, have a little sexy time, right?
Lily listens as Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) opens up and he may be venting about Audra or his growing feelings for Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) and Phyllis annoys Cane. And obviously Phyllis is planning to attend the AbbottComm launch party, so I’m sure she’ll be all up in his face. She’s playing with fire and I think she’s going to get burned soon and I’m not going to feel bad for her.
Next Week on Young and the Restless: AI Threats, Budding Romance, and Lingering Dangers
The week of December 15th through the 19th, Sienna and Noah’s bond intensifies as they get closer. I don’t think that Matt or the Newmans either one is going to tear them apart. But Noah’s going to have to bite the bullet and call Allie Nguyen (Kelsey Wang) and break things off because now that Noah has brought Sienna to Genoa City, Jack’s going to find out and he’s going to tell Allie if Noah doesn’t do it himself.
Cane prepares his Phyllis takedown plan. And I do wonder if Victor is going to turn the AI on Sally and Billy’s company instead since he can’t attack Jabot right now. And I certainly hope that Diane has given Sally that tracer software. Because I want to see Victor busted for this.
Sharon & Nick Fear the Worst on Y&R
The Newman family is all stressed out over the risk of Matt showing up in town, especially Sharon and Nick (Joshua Morrow). Kyle and Claire brainstorm on how to ruin Audra Jack and the Abbotts may lash out at Sienna. And Nikki now knows that Victor is planning to use Cane’s AI on Jabot to destroy Jack while basically lying to her face about it. So, I expect Nikki to make efforts to shut it down.
Jack warned her this was coming and Nikki was like, “Oh, I don’t know.” But now she knows. I think it’d be very interesting if she destroyed the AI and infuriated Victor. Cane is making progress with Lily. But a reunion isn’t going to manifest until 2026 because Christel Khalil is out on maternity leave soon. and Matt Clark is lurking and plotting revenge, but he is destitute and doesn’t have the resources to come at the Newmans just yet.
