Weekly Young and the Restless Spoilers April 21-25: Is The Abbott Mansion Refresh An Epic Fail?
No matter what Diane (Susan Walters) has told him, Jack (Peter Bergman) has been wary of this Abbott mansion refresh from the jump. He has fought it almost the entire time they've been forced to live at the GCAC. Next week, the wait is over, and they can move home. On Thursday, Diane sets the stage for the reveal.
The next day, look for Diane to pull out all the stops to impress Jack. This could mean his first reaction is that he's not as thrilled with the refresh. Or maybe Diane's instincts were spot-on and she's giving him the hard sell because she wants him to love it as much as she does. What will the verdict be?
READ THIS: Here's why Amelia Heinle thought she was going to be fired from Y&R.
As Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) has said, she and Sharon (Sharon Case) may have brokered peace, but she still has people to hate. Case in point: Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope). The two red heads are currently the most important women in Billy Abbott's life. And there is a considerable amount of bad blood already between them. It shouldn't be a shock that Phyllis suddenly pushes Sally's buttons. The question is whether or not Sally will fight back. Lately, she has been on her best behavior. Is that time over?
Meanwhile, look for Billy (Jason Thompson) to have his own distractions next week. He's high on life right now. He and Sally are (sort of) going strong, and he is launching Abbott Communications with Phyllis. Plus, he thinks he's special because Aristotle Dumas called him up and wants to help him take back Chancellor. Well, expect Billy to push buttons of his own when he crosses the line to make a point. Who's on the other end of this point he's making?

In the land of the Newmans, Victor (Eric Braeden) keeps a secret from Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott). Now, this could be about the spies he embedded at Jabot, or more likely, hiring Audra (Zuleyka Silver) to come between Kyle (Michael Mealor) and Claire (Hayley Erin). Or maybe there's a new secret. Meanwhile, Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) questions Adam's motives. We thought they were past all this questioning. How will Adam (Mark Grossman) react to her suspicion?
READ THIS: We can't stop thinking about who Dumas is on Y&R.
There's drama for the Winters, too. Nate (Sean Dominic) and Damian (Jermaine Rivers) receive an update about Amy's (Valarie Pettiford) condition. Will Damian's mom show signs of improvement? Also, Lily (Christel Khalil) gives Audra the third degree. Maybe Lily learns about her new 'job' with Victor, or she witnesses Audra attempting to get close to Kyle again. Audra could be exhibiting red flag behavior. Will Lily tell Nate?
Finally, Tessa (Cait Fairbanks) comes to the rescue of someone in need of help. Early in the week, Daniel (Michael Graziadei) finds himself at a crossroads. And since Tessa and Daniel have been Society buddies, she must be coming to his aid.

Victor's Risky Bet on Nick on August 14 Could Make or Break the War With Cane on Y&R
In the August 14 episode of The Young and the Restless, Victor Newman took a calculated risk that could either outmaneuver Cane Ashby or hand him the upper hand. Rather than challenge Cane head-on, Victor turned to his son Nick, tasking him with a quiet infiltration of Cane's world to steer his rival away from Chancellor and toward a different target. Why This Is a Dangerous Play Victor's (Eric Braeden plan wasn't about brute force — it was about precision. After learning just how close Cane (Billy Flynn) came to pulling Chancellor out from under them, Victor decided the smartest play wasn't to push back immediately but to redirect his energy. By sending Nick (Joshua Morrow) to cozy up to Cane and present himself as an ally, Victor is aiming to plant a seed: that Cane's next big win lies with Jabot, not Chancellor. The goal is clear—protect Chancellor without Cane realizing he's being managed. If Cane takes the bait, Newman Enterprises sidesteps a head-on battle and positions itself to watch Cane take on a whole new war elsewhere. MORE: Find out what happens next on Y&R. What Victor Stands to Gain The problem? Nick and Cane have history, and not the kind that fosters trust. Convincing Cane that they share the same objectives will require careful maneuvering. Any hint of duplicity could send Cane into full defense mode, triggering retaliation not just against Nick, but against Newman's business interests as a whole. Still, Victor believes Nick has the skills to sell the act. If he can make Cane forget Chancellor long enough to get entangled elsewhere, the Newman family could quietly shore up its defenses. The Big Unknown The move leaves no room for error. Cane has proven himself unpredictable, calculating, and willing to push boundaries to get what he wants. If he sees through the act, Newman's advantage evaporates—and they might end up in a more dangerous position than before. But if it works? Victor's quiet power play could neutralize Cane without a public war, leaving Newman Enterprises stronger than ever. The question now is whether Nick can play the role convincingly enough to pull it off. WATCH THIS: Soap Hub Says covers twists, turns, and jaw-droppers.
