Young and the Restless indicates Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) are so deep into their need for revenge and power that they have alienated everybody and are ruining their lives. Let’s talk about how there’s no coming back at this point for Billy and Phyllis.
Soon, they’re going to be left with nobody but each other, which is kind of a dismal thought. So, Billy’s feeling pretty good because he’s got Chancellor, and Newman Media under the AbbottCom umbrella. He finally got revenge on Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), but that’s about the only thing Billy got going for him because this week, his relationships fall apart.
Billy Abbott’s Revenge Backfires as Relationships Crumble on Young and the Restless
Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Billy are at odds. While talking to Jack, we’re going to see Billy accusing Jack of being mad that he got the best of Victor. Billy did it, not Jack. Then, his big brother messes up Billy’s plans somehow. Maybe he gets Jill Abbott (Jess Walton) involved or makes some other move.
Things get worse for Billy when Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) hits her breaking point. Billy was just ranting that she didn’t have ambition, and he walked out on their Valentine’s Day dinner. After a talk with her ex, Adam Newman (Mark Grossman), we’re going to see Sally head over to Billy’s place. She tells him she’s packing and she’s going.
Sally says that Billy keeps lying and saying he wants her, but what he really wants is Chancellor and revenge. Despite Sally ready to walk out on him, Billy is still trying to defend his actions. It’s crazy. He’s still saying it’s not wrong to chase his dreams, as if he wants an Olympic medal or to learn to play the piano. It’s not that. His dreams are all about revenge and Victor.
Sally Spectra Dumps Billy as Victoria Newman Plots Punishment on Y&R
Sally tells Billy he’s blinded. They’re over. They’re done. She’s out of there. Of course, he’s asking Sally, “Don’t do this.” But she tells Billy, “You’re the one that did this.” Sally says there’s no coming back from it. Billy tries saying he loves her. Sally says she loves him, too, but that Billy doesn’t think Sally is enough for him because he’s still chasing all these other terrible things.
Billy is officially dumped. He’s got nothing and nobody at this point except Chancellor. On top of that, Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) is plotting against Billy. She wants him punished, and she’s going to use their kids to do it. Victoria may refuse to let Billy see the kids. She may take him to court if she has to. She’s already said she’s going to tell the kids these awful things he’s done.
Victor Newman Gaslights Cane Ashby to Reclaim Newman Assets on Young and the Restless
Then we’ve got Phyllis. She betrayed Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn), and Victor now has Cane spun up into thinking that he’s going to hurt Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and the kids unless Cane finds a way to get all the Newman assets back from Phyllis. Victor has really messed with Cane’s mind. At this point, he’s just simple. I don’t know why he isn’t taking what Victor says with a grain of salt.
Cane is supposed to be this brilliant person. He is going to try and take down Phyllis and do what Victor is demanding to save Lily and the kids because Victor has gaslit him. Cane is going to go to Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) and ask him to help stop Phyllis. Daniel is probably going to do it. We know that he hates what his mom has done and thinks Phyllis has just gone too far.
Daniel may help Cane trick Phyllis and find a way to take it back. Daniel’s had enough. Summer Newman (Allison Lanier) had enough. They’re sick of Phyllis making one awful decision after another. It’s even worse because, let’s be honest, Phyllis already hit rock bottom a couple of years ago when she faked her death back in the Jeremy Stark (James Hyde) days.
Phyllis Summers Hits Rock Bottom as Daniel and Summer Walk Away
Everybody turned their back on her then. It took a while, but eventually, Daniel and Summer forgave her. You’d think after that rock bottom, Phyllis wouldn’t keep pulling these stunts and risk losing her kids again. Apparently, she didn’t learn her lesson. Phyllis has gone to rock bottom and then she started digging, trying to find a lower point.
Daniel and Summer may finally wash their hands of Phyllis once and for all. Honestly, if Daniel conspires with Cane to get Newman Enterprises away from her, Phyllis may lash out at Daniel for betraying her. I don’t think she’d let it slide. I think she might play the victim card and say that she was done dirty.
Nick Newman and Sharon Newman Vow to Make Phyllis Pay for Her Betrayal on Y&R
Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) also both despise Phyllis now. She has pushed them past their breaking point. Sharon said, “Everybody always forgives Phyllis, but not this time.” Nick has vowed to make Phyllis pay, and he said for the rest of her life. We all know Nick’s always a hothead, but right now the pain pill addiction and the pain are both making him more aggressive and vengeful.
He’s been annoyed with Phyllis since back when they were in France and she was looking to team up with Dumas. That was right around the time they found out it was Cane. Nick may really be done with her now. Phyllis literally has nobody who can stand to be in the same room with her except Billy.
A Billy and Phyllis Reunion on Young and the Restless? The Last Two Stand Alone
Those two don’t even get along, but by the end of this week, Phyllis and Billy are going to be the only ones that each other has left in their lives. I think everybody else is going to be done with them. Phyllis and Billy might hook up. That would ice the awful cake, right? Phyllis and Billy were in love at one point, so it wouldn’t be unprecedented.
Sally just walked out on him, and Phyllis’s bed buddy, Cane, has turned on her. If Billy slid into the sheets with Phyllis, I think that Sally would absolutely never let that go. Any chance of reconciliation would be over if Billy sleeps with Phyllis. As for Red, she’s got nothing left to lose. Why not replay her past with Billy? She’d probably be all for it.
I actually liked them together. They were engaged and they were happy at one point. They lived together and were playing video games. Then, of course, Billy slept with Summer. That was awkward. A while back, when Billy first got with Sally, we saw Phyllis having this dream about reuniting with Billy.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Will Victor Newman Stay on the Losing Side?
That dream happened right before Phyllis and Sharon were abducted by psycho Martin Laurent (Christopher Cousins) and held captive in that creepy abandoned psych hospital. It looked for a minute like they were hinting that Billy and Phyllis may reunite, but nothing ever came of it and he moved on with Sally. Maybe we are circling back around to it.
The big question is, of course, can Billy and Phyllis hang on to what they stole? I would hope she has everything locked down with super secret, extra secure passwords. Even if Cane gets Daniel to steal Phyllis’s laptop, they shouldn’t be able to get into it. I know that a bunch of Young and the Restless fans, even those that don’t like Phyllis and Cane, want to see Victor suffer for a while before he gets his companies back.
Victor Newman to Blame on Y&R
Victor says to Adam and Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) this week, “I know you probably blame me.” They’re both like, “No, we don’t blame you.” Ridiculous. It is 100% his fault. But I guess they’re not going to go there because Josh Griffith loves Victor Newman. We’ve got a week of sweeps left, and I just really hope that we come out of it with Victor still on the losing side of this.
He needs to pay for a while longer. I do hope that, at least in terms of their corporate assets, Phyllis and Billy keep winning for a little while longer. By the end of the week, though, it looks like Phyllis’s and Billy’s personal lives are ruined. Phyllis’s kids vow they’re done, even though she thinks they’ll come around. Billy’s kids are going to find out the things he’s done. Sally walked out on Billy. Honestly, I think she should have done it months ago.
This week is critical and life-changing for the two of them. What I really hope is someone gives Cane a reality check and tells him, “Look, Victor is lying to you. You’re being played.” Phyllis told Cane that Victor was bluffing, but he didn’t believe her. Maybe Cane will speak to Jack or somebody else who has a lick of sense and knows that this Lily kidnapping is fake. Maybe Cane will snap out of it and won’t help Victor get his stuff back.
