This Monday on The Young and the Restless, the Newman family faces turmoil as secrets and schemes threaten their unity. Victor Newman demands accountability from his family, Ian Ward lurks in the shadows, and Maria Copeland’s worst fears come true with the disappearance of her loved ones.
Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) is livid after finding out he was deliberately kept in the dark about Jordan’s (Colleen Zenk) plan. Claire Newman (Hayley Erin), Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott), and Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) oust Victor, and Claire may take the blame for insisting on secrecy. However, Victor believes that all three bear responsibility for the potential risks of the plot.
Victoria tries to deflect with an “all’s well that ends well” approach, the main thing is that Jordan can no longer hurt them. But the family is not out of the woods yet. Newman must convince Chance the Chancellor (Conner Floyd) that Jordan’s death was self-inflicted after feeling trapped. While Victor’s story partially holds the truth, Chance may still sense the missing pieces and suspect his involvement.
As the investigation progresses, Claire is increasingly on edge. Authorities focus on the sleeping pills found in Jordan’s system and work to establish a clear timeline. Meanwhile, Victor issues an ominous warning: Ian Ward (Ray Wise) is still at large and possibly planning his next move. Victor’s clues reveal that the chaos is over, setting the stage for Ian’s next catastrophic strike against the Numans.
Elsewhere, Maria Copeland (Camryn Grimes) is blindsided by another devastating twist. After finding Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) during her sewer escape, Maria prepares to apologize to Tessa Porter (Kat Fairbanks) after a heated argument. However, when Mariah gets home, she finds no sign of Tessa or their daughter, Aria Porter-Copeland (Maddie and Millie Ingle).
Panic sets in as Maria fears that Ian Ward has retaliated by kidnapping both Tessa and Aria. Distraught and frantic, Maria shares the news with Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow), who tries to reassure her that they will find Tessa and Aria soon. Despite their optimism, the reality of Ian’s increasing vengeance takes a toll on the family.
As Ian Ward tightens his grip on Genoa City, the Newman family must face their darkest challenges yet. Will Victor’s efforts give up on Ian, or will Ian’s ruthless plans claim more victims? With emotional stakes and high-stakes drama, The Young and the Restless delivers another week with gripping action that fans won’t want to miss!
