Young and the Restless Spoilers August 4: Why Won't Adam Obey Victor?
Victor Newman returns to Genoa City and immediately clashes with Adam over his decision not to destroy Billy with Newman Media.
Chelsea reveals a secret about Cane to Lily, after previously convincing Adam not to attack Billy.
Cane forms an alliance with Billy, Phyllis, and another surprising individual, setting him up against Victor.
The Young and the Restless spoilers for Monday, August 4, prove that Victor, back in Genoa City, is a Victor mad at Adam. It's good to know that his recent traumatic experience didn't change our old Vic an iota.
Victor Loses Patience With Adam
Adam (Mark Grossman) scaled an entire mountain—both ways—in order to bring important corporate news to his family trapped in France. Victor (Eric Braeden) thanked him. But now that he's back in Genoa City, it's: What have you done for me lately?
Who cares that Adam held down the professional fort while they were all gone, or that he was Victoria's (Amelia Heinle) only family support after Cole's (J. Eddie Peck) death? The important thing is that Adam decided—all by himself, with no fatherly input—not to destroy Billy (Jason Thompson). How could he? How dare he? Such insubordination will not be tolerated—you got that?

Chelsea Shares a Secret With Lily
But Adam didn't decide not to humiliate Billy on his own. It was actually Chelsea's (Melissa Claire Egan) idea. She batted her beautiful eyes at him, and Adam couldn't resist.
While Adam gets tongue-lashed by Victor, Chelsea is catching up with Lily (Christel Khalil). Chelsea knows something about Cane (Billy Flynn) that Lily doesn't. Will she spill? And what will she ask for in return?
Cane Forms A New Alliance
Cane is back in Genoa City, too. He's made enemies of Victor, Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott), Nick (Joshua Morrow), Sharon (Sharon Case), Jack (Peter Bergman), Diane (Susan Walters), Kyle (Michael Mealor), and Audra (Zuleyka Silver).
But Billy and Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) are more intrigued than ever. So he's got them on his side. As well as one more surprising person. Now we've got a party! Will his new alliances be enough to take on the great Victor Newman? (Oh, who are we kidding, of course not!)

Alan Tudyk Says He Got Dropped From ‘I, Robot' Publicity After Testing Higher Than Will Smith With Test Screening Audiences: ‘I Was Very Upset'
Alan Tudyk recently appeared on the 'Toon'd In with Jim Cummings' podcast and claimed he was dropped from the marketing of 2004's 'I, Robot' after it was discovered in test screenings that he was actually testing higher with audiences than leading man Will Smith. Tudyk appeared in the film as the robot Sonny via motion capture and voice acting. Axing him from the movie's publicity meant there were (and still are) people who have no idea he starred in the movie, the actor said. 'A lot of people did not know I did Sonny the Robot in 'I, Robot,' and there is a reason,' Tudyk said. 'They were doing test audiences for the movie and they score the characters in this kind of test screening. I got word back: 'Alan, you are testing higher than Will Smith.' And then I was gone. I was done. There was no publicity and my name was not mentioned.' More from Variety 'Slow Horses' Creator Will Smith Leaving Show After Season 5 'Resident Alien' Stars on Their Show's Cancellation, TV Industry 'Disarray' and a 'Plausible' Movie Continuation: 'You Guys Deserve More' 'Resident Alien' Canceled at USA Network Ahead of Season 4 Finale 'I was so shocked,' he continued. 'I was like, 'Wait, nobody is going to know I'm in it!' I put a lot into [that performance]. I had to move like a robot. At the time I was very upset.' Variety has reached out to Smith's representative for comment. 'I, Robot,' directed by Alex Proyas, stars Smith as a Chicago police detective in 2035 investigating the alleged suicide of the founder of a robotics company. The corporation's highly-intelligent robots are utilized for public service jobs, but Smith's detective is convinced one of these robots, Tudyk's Sonny, murdered the founder. The supporting cast includes Bridget Moynahan, Bruce Greenwood, James Cromwell and Chi McBride. Outside of Jar Jar Binks in the 'Star Wars' prequels and Gollum in 'The Lord of the Rings' movies, motion capture technology and performances were still relatively new in Hollywood when Tudyk played Sonny in 'I, Robot.' He would go on to use the technology again years later when he played the droid K-2SO in the 'Star Wars' movie 'Rogue One,' a role he reprised in the Disney+ prequel series 'Andor.' Watch Tudyk's full interview on the 'Toon'd In with Jim Cummings' podcast in the video below.

Why parents are calling out this ‘boy mom' post about her son's future girlfriend
I'm a boy mom, and even though my son is not quite a year and a half, I'd be lying if I haven't already had thoughts about what it means to raise a boy, or honestly any child, in this world. I get lost in thoughts about the messages he'll absorb — from me, from his dad, from friends, from media — about love, respect, and how we treat other people. Which is why a viral post on Threads last week stopped me in my scroll. A self-described 'boy mom' wrote: 'I'm a boy mom and one day, some teenage girl is gonna break his heart… and I'm gonna have to square up with a 16-year-old.' The post has over 1,700 comments (and a mere 500 some likes) which is never a good sign when it comes to internet ratios. And the replies were…heated. Related: What's it like being a 'boy mom'? All the things I wish I had known The double standard at the heart of 'boy mom' culture Many parents called out the comment for perpetuating a double standard: moms fiercely protecting their sons while positioning girls (or any future partner) as villains. 'You must have missed the memo. It's 2025 and we're raising our sons to be good men, and if they get their hearts broken, we teach them how to process their emotions,' one Threads user wrote. 'The only people we're 'squaring up' with are predators—definitely not young girls trying to figure out their world, too. Signed, A Mom of 4 Boys.' Another mom added: 'If that girl happens to be my 16-year-old daughter, you'll be squaring off with me pretty bloody quickly. Teach your son to take no for an answer instead.' Others were blunter: 'Reaaaallly manifesting for my girls to never date anyone who has a 'boy mom' parent ' And some were just puzzled: 'Why are you already beefing with an imaginary teenage girl? Lol' Related: Here's what many people don't know about being a boy mom Not everyone thought it was that deep To be fair, a few people defended the original post, arguing it was clearly meant as a joke. 'I feel like y'all in the comments took this to the head,' one user wrote. 'Obviously she's not really gonna square up with a 16-year-old… At the end of the day, relationships are a two-way street.' The poster herself replied: 'Thank you. It's a joke—people are so weird.' Related: How becoming a boy mom transformed the way I see men Why this conversation matters for parents raising boys Sure, it might have been a joke. But jokes reveal what's underneath. And underneath 'I'll fight your future girlfriend' is a vision of our sons as fragile, emotionally dependent on mom, and entitled to someone else's feelings. That's not the world I want my son growing up in. Because the truth is, heartbreak is part of life. It's not something I can, or should, shield him from. My job is to help him process it: to know that rejection doesn't make him less worthy, to respect someone else's boundaries, and to see breakups not as battles to win, but as moments to grow. And in a time when online spaces are full of misogyny, red-pill rhetoric, and distorted ideas about masculinity, how we raise our boys matters more than ever. If you ask me, the only thing I want to 'square up' against is a culture that tells boys they can't handle emotional pain without blaming someone else. Solve the daily Crossword
