Y&R Daily Scoop – Accepting The Coin Demands Michael’s Loyalty
She’ll mention she ran into Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) at the club and will say it was nice. Audra will add she’s grateful to Sally, who is her only friend. Sally will tell her not to beat herself up and she’ll say she’s not. “I know I’m the town pariah,” Audra will say. “But you think I care? I don’t.”
Then Audra will tell her friend she had another run in with Claire. “I’m gearing up for a showdown to finally put that bitch in her place, once and for all.” And she’ll describe their encounter and getting water tossed in her face. When Audra says she didn’t retaliate, Sally will advise her to steer clear of Claire. She’ll also ask about what happened in LA and Audra won’t want to discuss it.
At Society, Jack will meet up with Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson). He’ll keep looking at his phone to see if there’s a message from Nikki. But instead, Victor will walk in. The Mustache will lord it over them, saying he thinks 2026 is going to be a hell of a year. “You’re celebrating a little early, this battle is not over yet,” Jack will say.
But Victor will tell him he’s managed to ruin the company his father built in just a matter of weeks. Jack will say it’ll be a pleasure to watch the smug look be wiped from Victor’s face. “It can’t happen soon enough,” he’ll add. “This time we have the upper hand, you don’t see that yet but you will.”
He and Billy will leave and Victor will summon Michael to Society. He’ll tell him he just ran into Jack and Billy and wonders if he’s planning something. So, Victor will ask Michael to go behind the scenes and find out what they’re planning at Jabot. Then Victor will present him with a gift, an ancient Roman coin. “By accepting this coin, you understand I demand your complete loyalty.” But will Michael accept it?
Young And The Restless Scoop – Heart Won’t Let Her Go Through With It
As for Jack, he’ll head to the Abbott estate. Nikki will call and offer to come over. When she arrives, she’ll have an unsurprising update. “After spending Christmas with Victor, my heart won’t let me go through with it,” Nikki will tell Jack. But she’s not giving up on trying to talk him out of his vendetta.
Meanwhile, Holden will run into Claire at the lookout. She’ll apologize for running out on their breakfast. They’ll talk about Claire throwing the glass of water in Audra’s face and Claire will once again bring up LA. “Sienna admitted there’s more to this story so I’m wondering what you left out.” Holden will say he doesn’t want to discuss it.
Talk will turn to Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor). Claire will say he reached his limit and has decided to move on. “Are you ready to accept that you and Kyle are really over?” Holden will ask her. Claire will admit it felt like it came out of left field. But now she’s free to do whatever she wants. He’ll ask if they can ring in the New Year together and she’ll say sure, but she wants to know what happened in LA.
Finally, Holden and Claire will end up at Crimson Lights. And like clockwork, Audra will show up. She’ll ask Claire if she’s about to get a scalding drink thrown in her face. Claire will glare at Audra and tell Holden she’s grabbing a table on the patio.
Holden will tell Audra she needs to stop provoking Claire, since he’s about to tell her everything that happened in LA. “Are you actually out of your mind?” Audra will reply. “You have a lot more to lose than I do, are you sure you’re ready to take that risk?” Holden will say he’s done keeping secrets from Claire. But will he go through with telling her?
