I'm baffled that The Young and the Restless' Billy is overlooking his nephew's death for the sake of Chancellor
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Admittedly, The Young and the Restless' Billy (Jason Thompson) hasn't always been my favorite Genoa City resident, but I actually felt bad for him when Victor (Eric Braeden) convinced Jill (Jess Walton) to sell Chancellor, leaving Billy without a job. It was supposed to be Billy's fresh start for him out of Jack's (Peter Bergman) shadows at Jabot, and Victor swept in to take the company for himself, well, for Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott). Understandably, Billy was very upset, but he eventually opted to put it all behind him and start Abbott Communications from the ground up. Sadly, then came along Cane (Billy Flynn) with his Aristotle Dumas mystery and quest to take Chancellor from Victor. Once Cane planted the seed of taking the conglomerate away from The Mustache, Billy took the bait and is hooked. Regaining control of the corporation has been almost his sole focus. Billy hasn't even been able to get Abbott Communications off the ground due to his obsession with the idea of running Chancellor. Despite Jack investing his money in Abbott Communications and issuing his warnings to stay focused, Billy seems incapable of letting go. In fact, he's in a prime position to let go of Abbott Communications to Sally (Courtney Hope), if anything. What really baffles me about Billy's continued interest in acquiring Chancellor with Cane at this point is that Cane bears a lot of responsibility for why Billy's nephew died. Although Carter (Vincent Stalba) is the one who shot Chance (Conner Floyd), Chance wouldn't have been in France if Cane hadn't orchestrated this whole elaborate scheme to lure in the powerful players of Genoa City. Heck, Cane brought Chance to Europe, fearing he was going to be murdered and wanting Chance's detective skills. Keep in mind, Chance didn't even have international jurisdiction, and Cane has a security team. For these reasons, plus how devastated Jill (Jess Walton) is going to be to learn the news that her grandson is dead, I'd think Bill would be upset with Cane, or at the very least, more apprehensive about getting into business with Cane. But Billy is full steam ahead. In the immediate aftermath of Chance's death, he briefly talked about informing Abby (Melissa Ordway) of what happened before he took to being Cane's biggest defender with Jack. Additionally, Billy was quick to connect with Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) and again pitched them partnering together to work with Cane. I understand everyone goes through their own process to deal with grief, but this all seemed a bit distasteful. Billy and Chance weren't exactly besties, but at the end of the day, Chance is Billy's only nephew on his mother's side of the family. Overall, I'm not a fan of this road Billy is heading down. I just want him to cut ties with Chancellor and prove his doubters wrong by making Abbott Communications a powerhouse in the Genoa City business world.

The stunning alliance I hope The Young and the Restless' Cane forces to happen
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. After months of talking about The Young and the Restless' enigma known as Aristotle Dumas, viewers finally know that the mystery tycoon is none other than Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn). Although his full plans have yet to be revealed, I at the very least know that Cane is the person who has been rattling the cages around Genoa City for months. Now, with the recent revelation that Holden (Nathan Owens) has been buying up property around town near Jabot and Newman Enterprises for Cane, I have to believe Cane will soon launch a plan of attack on the companies. Especially in light of the fact that he's tricked all of his guests in France that they are stuck at his Nice home due to a recent storm. Having stated all of this, I can't help but think of Cane being this viable threat to the biggest power brokers in town. Although I still don't buy that Cane can go toe-to-toe with The Great Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), since writers are building Cane up as this worthy adversary of Victor, I'll go along with this new narrative. In the case that Cane is preparing an attack against Jabot and Newman Enterprises, in addition to his quest for Chancellor, I'm starting to believe some people should form an alliance in an effort to preserve the current status quo. Thinking along these lines, I came up with the perfect trio that would really keep me entertained. I'm talking about a partnership consisting of Victor, Jack (Peter Bergman) and Phyllis (Michelle Stafford). Before you blast this as a preposterous idea, let's really talk about this. Look, I know Jack and Victor are in the middle of a reignited feud and neither trusts the other, but even Victor would put his beef aside with his fiercest enemy if it meant saving Chancellor for Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) and his firstborn, Newman Enterprises. Additionally, Jack would do anything to save his father's legacy and has proven with his infamous hotel bender that he's willing to go to great lengths to protect Nikki. Then there's the whole Phyllis component of it all. Now she has bad blood with both Victor and Jack, so neither man has a reason to trust her. However, regardless of how people may feel about her, she is a savvy tech guru and has solid experience in the business world. She actually can be an asset for whoever she works for. While Phyllis wants her next boss to be Cane at this juncture, after her conversation with Sharon (Sharon Case), it's clear Phyllis is not completely oblivious to that there may be something sinister going on with him. So I'd like for her to partner with people who may prove to have a little more stability in Genoa City. Again, there is bad blood among the trio, but if Victor and Jack could let bygones be bygones for the greater good, then all three of them could do that. With that said, Diane (Susan Walters) may not be so forgiving, so if Phyllis were to partner with Jack and Victor, she may have to do so with a position working directly for Victor or working in a freelance capacity. Lastly, Philly working with Victor and Jack could finally place her in a new era. She's been stuck in a rut ever since she faked her death, and I think this alliance could finally focus Phyllis, which I've been quietly hoping for. Phyllis has been out of control for too long. Even if this wild fantasy alliance were to happen, it likely would fall apart at some point. However, it would be an interesting storyline in the interim and I believe Phyllis would come out of it with a hefty windfall, a top-level executive job or both. Oh, and Jack and Victor would probably maintain their family businesses. New episodes of The Young and the Restless air weekdays on CBS.

The Young and the Restless Spoilers, May 29 Episode: Will Ashley Shake Up Jack's Entire World With A Bombshell Announcement?
Drama levels are high in Genoa City on The Young and the Restless this Thursday, May 29, when family secrets and workplace games of cat and mouse threaten to topple delicate alliances. As per The Young and the Restless spoilers, Ashley could be making a huge announcement as Jack and Diane plot their next move. Meanwhile, Harrison seems to be out spending a day in the park. Ashley Abbott arrives back from her lengthy vacation with sister Traci with more than an overnight bag. Having taken a detour first to Chicago for a cryptic business meeting, Ashley returns to Jabot with a shocking secret for Jack Abbott, and it might shake the company to its foundations. Victor schemes as Ashley shocks Jack On one hand, Victor Newman has already been scheming behind the scenes; no birthday party could put a halt to his scheming. On the other hand, Ashley's revelation of shocking news could point to an early strike in the ongoing Abbotts vs. Newmans war. Though Victor promised to wait to make any move until after Nikki's (Melody Thomas Scott) birthday bash, Ashley's intel could highly likely prove it otherwise. Jack and Diane roll up their sleeves Jack and Diane, who are already strategizing to protect Jabot, may need to ramp up their defense even quicker. They could rack their brains out scheming and plotting, but will it be enough to win against Victor? Jack and Diane must stay put and at least three steps ahead of him if they wish to win this battle. Elsewhere, Amanda Sinclair finds herself stuck in a corner professionally. While trying to navigate the mercurial business needs of Dumas, Amanda has to contend with repercussions from Phyllis Summers' pushy pitch to the reclusive mogul. Dumas isn't interested in hearing Phyllis out himself and might now delegate getting rid of her again. Adding to the complication, Amanda might have to cancel her planned trip to D.C. with Phyllis entirely, as Dumas is said to have other plans up his sleeve. Whatever he might be scheming, a big legal move or a bombshell revelation for Genoa City, Amanda is torn between being true to her friend and answering to her superior. In the meantime, a lighter moment is played out when Kyle and Claire bring young Harrison out for a day at Chancellor Park. Although it begins as a happy excursion, something said by Kyle may ruffle the boy's feathers, leaving viewers to guess what kind of trouble can brew even on family time. The Young and the Restless airs weekdays on CBS.
