Weekly Y&R Spoilers August 4-8: Victor Goes on the Offense, Jill and Billy Clash, Game Over for Audra
Next Week on The Young and the Restless
Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) isn't taking time to ease back into Genoa City life now that he's back from Nice. In fact, he's attempting a few preemptive strikes before Cane (Billy Flynn) is able to further his plan for GC domination. Early in the week, look for Victor to clash with family members Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) and Adam (Mark Grossman).
On Wednesday, Victor finally drops the hammer on Audra (Zuleyka Silver) and gives her walking papers, to no one's surprise. She and Victor had a deal, and Kyle (Michael Mealor) sussed out her seduction plan, and now she's experiencing the consequences. Victor will no longer fund Vibrante. How will Audra handle this major setback?
On Thursday, despite Lily's reluctance to ever believe anything Victor and Nikki tell her again, Victor's latest strategy involves Lily (Christel Khalil). In the South of France, Victor probably witnessed Lily wanting nothing to do with Cane. Look for him to try to capitalize on that animosity when Victor wants Lily to join his revenge plot. Will she sign onto Victor's campaign against Cane? Meanwhile, on Friday, Victor makes an unexpected deal. Does he make it with Lily or someone else?

Mother and Son Share Potentially Savage Conversation
Billy (Jason Thompson) has been done with his mom ever since she allowed Victor to gobble up Chancellor. But there's been little to no face-to-face interaction between the two since.
Well, that's about to change when Jill (Jess Walton) and Billy share a heated exchange. There is no way a chat between this mother and son is going to be anything but heated. Billy feels an immense amount of betrayal. And it's colored everything that he has been doing since, including the fact that he is leaving Abbott Communications in Sally's (Courtney Hope) capable hands while he joins up with Cane to take back Chancellor.
Will Billy pull any punches considering that Jill is undoubtedly experiencing grief over losing Chance (Conner Floyd)? Expect a lot of intense emotions to be exchanged.

Kyle's Busy Week
Kyle will be happy to hear about Audra getting served what he thinks is justice for her shady tactics in Nice. However, he'll also have his own consequences to face. Next week, Kyle comes clean with Claire (Hayley Erin), presumably about how far he had to take things with Audra in order to prove she wasn't on the up and up. How will Claire react?
By the end of the week, Kyle starts making his own proposals and it involves one of the Newman sons. What happens when Kyle tries to strike a deal with Adam? What's the purpose of this move and will Adam even take it seriously?

Time for Chelsea to Get Off the Fence
Finally, Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) is forced to take sides. Everybody knew this was coming, especially with the fact that Billy has made no bones about aligning himself with Cane. This has to be about choosing between her sympathies for Billy and the Newman family.
With Victor on the warpath, there's no way he'll stand for Chelsea's attempts to get Adam to back off Billy. If Billy is firmly in Cane's camp, then all bets are off. She'll pick the Newmans over Billy, RIGHT??!!

Sean "Diddy" Combs wants to go back to Madison Square Garden, his attorney says
As Sean "Diddy" Combs awaits his sentencing, his lead attorney Marc Agnifilo sat down with CBS News' Jericka Duncan in his first network interview since the highly publicized trial in which a New York jury found Combs guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution but acquitted him of more serious charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. When discussing the hip-hop mogul's future goals, Agnifilo said Combs told him "he's going to be back at Madison Square Garden." Asked about what Combs wants the public to know, Agnifilo explained that Combs has been reflecting on "the blessings that he's been given, on the imperfections that I think he sees in himself." "I think he wants to get out of jail, reestablish a loving, present relationship with all of his seven children. He wants to take care of his mother," the defense attorney added. "I think he's someone who's always going to strive to do something, you know, exceptional and probably demanding and challenging," Agnifilo said about Combs' potential plans for the future. "But I think the most demanding and challenging thing in front of him right now is to get back with his kids and get back with his mother, and the people who love him and miss him."

Filmmakers, San Francisco Japantown museum reflect on 80-years since first atomic bomb
Inside a tiny museum in San Francisco's Japantown, there is a powerful message about the atrocities of the atomic bomb. "Americans see the bomb as a beautiful mushroom cloud, and the Japanese who were on the ground see it as ground zero, the devastation, the 70,000 people who lost their lives in an instant," said Rosalyn Tonai, Director of the National Japanese American Historical Society. This summer, the NJAHS resurrected an exhibit from 30 years ago to remember the victims of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombs that the United States dropped on Japan on Aug. 6 and 9, 1945. The two bombings ended World War II, with the Japanese surrendering less than a week later, on Aug. 15. The exhibit also includes a single relic that serves as a haunting reminder, a doll that was recovered from the rubble in Nagasaki. "An American family brought it in and let us know that they had kept it all these years. It was given to them by a family that survived the atomic blast," said Tonai. The survivor stories are what Tonai wants people to experience and understand. The display also features firsthand accounts from those who survived the atomic blasts, including Jack Dairiki, who still lives in San Francisco. Dairiki was a Japanese American kid visiting family in Hiroshima who became stuck in Japan because of the war. On Aug. 6, 1945, he was outside a factory on the outskirts of the city when the first bomb dropped. "We saw three aircraft coming above us," said Dairiki, during a 2015 interview with KPIX. "At that time, the bomb exploded, all the factory windows went out, it flew over my head. I weighed 100 pounds and was floating in the air." And now a new documentary titled "Atomic Echoes" by filmmakers Victoria Kelly and Karin Tanabe is shedding even more light on the devastation. "Few Americans understand what happened under the mushroom cloud, "said Tanabe. "We all see the exact same image, which really covers up the atrocities, and then we stop there in the history books." Tanabe's great-great uncle was part of the rebuilding effort in Hiroshima. Kelly's grandfather was an American medic sent to Nagasaki, who witnessed the effects of peak radiation sickness. He suffered from PTSD and died at the age of 42. The filmmakers interviewed several other American medics who were sent to Japan 45 days after the bombings. "They were really torn, they were really proud of their service, and all of them said, you know, we were there, and we can't ever have these bombs happen again because they were the worst thing we've ever seen," said Kelly. For Tonai, she believes the topic is still relevant today and still important to talk about. "We are the cusps of a nuclear buildup, and this is really a call for world peace," she said. "So, we really need to take a pause and take a look at the human cost and consequences of a possible nuclear fallout. Her hope is that the history that happened even eight decades ago will never repeat itself.
