Young and Restless Early Spoilers Aug 24-28: Lily Launches Attack & Sally Loses Control!

Young and the Restless early spoilers for the week beginning August 24th with Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) furious at Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) and declaring war on him with nothing out of bounds. Plus, Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) is also going to be angry when she finds out what Billy is up to. And I expect we are going to see her explode at him.

Also, during the week of August 24th through the 28th, we’ll see Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) taking aim at a target, Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) sticking to neutrality as long as he can. Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) arguing with Chelsea Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) struggling.

And as we always do on early edition day, we’ll go over what’s happening the rest of this week and then we get into what is coming next week.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Nikki & Victor Get Romantic

Wednesday, August 19th on Y&R. Victor and Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) are enjoying some romance and they’re talking about going back to Venice. Once Nick’s out of rehab and recovered, Nikki gives Victor a poetry book and he’s reading to her. Very romantic. They agree that Nick’s at a low point of life and Nikki is just glad that Matt is off the ranch, but she’d like to see the guy gone forever. Speaking of him, Sharon is startled when Matt pops up at the coffee shop and Sharon tells Matt, “Go away.”

He asks how Nick is doing in rehab. Matt feels really bad for doing this to Nick and needs to know how he is. Sharon says Nick is feeling defeated and lost. Matt says he’s sorry. Offers to help any way he can. Sharon says just leave. Matt says he’s got a job with Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford), who’s the only one who accepts him, so he’s not leaving. But Sharon says he and Phyllis won’t last.

Matt says he’d rather stay with Phyllis than run off and escape the hate. Sharon says that she earned forgiveness she got because she is bipolar. And Matt admits, “Yeah, that’s not him. He’s sane when he did all these things.” Sharon does believe that Matt’s really changed, but she thinks he would be happier elsewhere.

Y&R Spoilers: Matt & Sharon’s Heart to Heart

And Matt tells Sharon he feels like he is meant to be in Genoa City. And she says to her, “Matt seems stuck.” And then he cries a little bit and says he is. and he really wants forgiveness from her and Nick if nobody else. But Sharon says maybe he should just forgive himself. And if Matt moves away to a new place, the people will only know the good version of him.

But he vows to stick around, earn their forgiveness, and tell Sharon he knows it may take years and she hates to hear him say that. But Matt says, “Please tell Nick I ask about him.” And then he goes. Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) finds Billy drinking champagne and he tells her Sally is back soon because her sister’s surgery went well. Audra wants to know what he’s celebrating and Billy says the Abbotts now own Chancellor and he should be running it by next week.

Young and Restless Spoilers: Audra & Billy Rub Sally the Wrong Way

Audra wants to know how, but he’s light on the details and she asks Billy what Sally thinks about it. Well, she doesn’t know, but Billy is certain that Sally is going to support him. Audra reminds him Chancellor was an issue between them before and she suggests that Billy try trusting her so they can talk this through. She says they can be friends for Sally’s sake. Billy reminds Audra she has no other friends and Audra says that’s why Sally is important to her. So, Audra proposes mutual trust and Billy says okay since you’ve been good with Sally.

They toast and as they’re boozing and smiling Sally walks in, sees them together. She does not look happy. Jack tells Kyle that Billy already confronted Cane Ashby and Lily. And Jack’s telling his son that Tracy and Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) want to reign Billy in, but the bottom line is Jack says Billy’s already mad that he tried to talk him down and he demanded that Cane and Billy turn over Chancellor by the end of the week. Kyle says the case is actually really strong, but Jack thinks somebody’s going to wind up suffering, whether it’s Billy or Lily.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Jack Protective His Father

And Kyle suggests bringing in Jill Abbott (Jess Walton), but Jack says that might be bad for her heart. So Kyle and Jack agree to leave Billy to it, good or bad. Jack’s one concern is damage to John Abbott’s (Jerry Douglas) legacy. So, if they start taking hits at his dad, that’s the point Jack’s going to get involved. Lily tells Cane that her legal team gave her bad news.

If Billy’s documents are legit, they’re probably going to lose. Cane says the other Abbotts don’t like what Billy’s doing, but they won’t intervene. And Cane and Lily agree to fight and exploit Billy’s many weaknesses. Cane and Lily are ready to go dark.

Cane mentioned Jack’s warnings about John’s reputation. And while Lily really doesn’t want to fight with the other Abbotts, she’s not going to stop and she’ll do anything she has to to keep Chancellor. She will play dirty. She vows to make Billy regret this. Jack and Kyle run into them and Jack says sorry for what Billy’s doing.

Lily snarks that Jack hasn’t even tried to stop him. And he tells Lily he can’t talk Billy out of it. Lily doubts that and thinks that Jack is loyal to Billy, whereas Lily is motivated by loyalty to Katherine Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper). And Lily makes it clear she won’t stop. Thursday, August 20th on Young and the Restless. Billy’s new Chancellor plot isn’t sitting well with Sally. I’m sure she’s going to ask what he and Audra are celebrating together. And Sally is already annoyed about that.

Young and Restless Spoilers: Traci Gets a Happy Surprise

So, when she hears this is all about Chancellor, I expect her to completely lose it. Nina Webster (Tricia Cast), Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland), and Christine Williams reunite for a girls night at the Shadow Room and Chelsea and Adam are butting heads at the office. I’m sure this is about Billy making a grab for Chancellor. We’re also going to see Cane. He’s supposed to make a new alliance. Now, that spoiler was on Tuesday and that never manifested. So, it may be happening in another day because I think it’s going to happen pre-Friday based on a Friday spoiler or writers just wrote a bad spoiler, but I do expect Newman Media gets involved in all of this. So, Cane may go see Victor.

Young and the Restless: Chancellor War and Personal Struggles

Friday, August 21st on Young and the Restless. Lily goes to Jack asking for help. She’s hoping Jack will reign in Billy, but he already told her no. So, we’ll see if Lily has a better angle that might make Jack more sympathetic. Sharon gets an update from the rehab center about Nick and Victor has a plan to discredit Billy and Victor’s going to flip out and get in the mix once he hears that Billy is going after Chancellor.

So, he may be the one that Cane and Lily are allying with. Then the week of August 24th through the 28th, Cane and Lily are in war mode. They are gearing up to take down Billy. Even though Jack didn’t want to call Jill, Cane might actually do it. Matt keeps hoping for Sharon’s forgiveness. Matt, of course, really terrorized her, but Sharon does believe that he’s changed.

We’ll also find out if Jack has second thoughts about weighing in on this war with Billy, who’s going after Lily. We’re going to see more of Nick in rehab and whether he’s getting much closer to Marie Kirkland (Jade Harlow). You’re not supposed to be involved in rehab, but Nick might dive into something with Marie while they’re going through this same struggle.

Y&R Spoilers: Billy May Lose Everyone

Billy’s obsession with Chancellor is going to strain his relationship with Sally, with Jack, and also his sisters. And Billy could end up pushing everybody away. Phyllis should have a really fun reaction to Billy snatching Chancellor from Cane. And I think she’s going to love it because she loves chaos.

Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) and Stephanie are sparking. I’m excited to see where that goes. I’m also really hoping we get good news about the surgery on Nate’s hand. We should find out about that soon. Things are going to be tense between Chelsea and Adam because of Billy and this Chancellor chaos, but this actually might smooth things over with Victor and Adam working against a common enemy. Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) and Claire Newman (Hayley Erin) seem to be edging towards saying I love you.

But Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) growing connection with Kyle isn’t sitting well with Claire. She’s already giving a little side eye about it. And Holden might have some feelings about Nate sparking with his mom Stephanie. And we’re going to see Billy hitting back at Victor after the attack he launches on him the prior week. And I’m sure Sally is going to try and get Billy to stop before it’s too late and just focus on their growing family, but he won’t do it.
