Young and Restless Early Spoilers June 29-July 3: Victor Forces Action & Jack Takes Dangerous Gamble!

Young and the Restless early spoilers for June 29th through July 3rd stun with Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) going all out to help Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) even though she claims she doesn’t want anything from him and she even gave back her wedding rings. Also, Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) makes a risky move for his wife Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters).

And as always, on early edition day, we start with the rest of this week and then we get into what is coming next week.

Young and the Restless: Nikki’s Crisis and Family Tensions – Wednesday, June 24th

So, let’s do it. On Wednesday, June 24th, we’ve got Victor telling Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin) and Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) that he knows what is going on about Nikki’s health. He knows something’s going on and he demands answers. So, Victoria won’t spill what’s happening with Nikki and he knows from Claire about the headaches, but not the whole extent of things. And when Victor tries to get the information from Nikki directly, she reminds him he tossed her out of the house and that Victor gave away her company and she says she owes him nothing.

So, Claire tells Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) that Victor and Nikki really need each other but are both being stubborn. And Holden says secrets always come out anyway. So, later Claire circles back to Victor and she just goes ahead and tells him what is going on with Nikki’s health. And of course he is worried.

Meanwhile, Victoria tells Nikki that Claire will keep her secret. Uh oh. Nikki gets another horrible headache and asks Victoria to take her to the hospital after again refusing to tell Victor the truth. Even though Victoria pestered her about letting Victor be there for her, she just won’t agree. But of course, Claire already took care of it.

Young and the Restless: Nick’s Struggle and Matt’s Redemption Attempt

Also, Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) tells Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) that he is struggling with recovery. Nick went to a meeting and there was a guy there who turned up high after years of being clean. So, he tells Sharon that he has dreams of getting high and she tells Nick just give it time. Sharon leaves and Nick has to chase off a dealer that he’s bought from before who approaches him.

Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) is at the Shadow Room when Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) shows up to apologize and he tells Noah he really liked him when they met. And Matt says he always thought that people were suckers and he was smarter. Now he knows better. Noah calls Matt out for how he treated Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun). And then he calls Matt irredeemable and basically threatens to kill him. He tells Noah that he could have killed him or let him die, but he didn’t. And then Matt asks for a chance to show that he has changed. Noah says that Matt is not even human.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Phyllis Plays Referee

Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) joins and tries to calm things down. And Noah wants to know why she is even around Matt. And Noah reminds her that Matt is not even a bargaining chip anymore. Phyllis says that Matt is not a danger to him. And then Phyllis and Matt go over to the Genoa City Athletic Club and he talks about how everybody is freaked out about him and thinks he’s going to attack them. Phyllis knows what it’s like because people think that she is too much as well. Matt talks about her incredible brain and her beauty and then he asks her out on a date.

Noah finds Nick right after he ran off the dealer and asks who it was. He hesitates but then admits that yes, it was a drug dealer. Noah wants to know if Nick bought anything and he says he did not, but the struggle is real. Noah calls him a hero, but Nick does not feel that way. Noah says the Shadow Room is doing well, but Matt dropped by and Noah didn’t like that at all. Not one bit. But Nick actually says that Matt is not a danger. Security is on him, but also I think Nick thinks he is declawed. Noah is mad that Victor’s letting Matt roam free around Genoa City, and he’s even driving one of Victor’s cars, by the way. Noah plans to make things hard for Matt.

Young and the Restless July Sweeps Kicks Off – Thursday, June 25th and Friday, June 26th

Then on Thursday, June 25th, July sweeps kicks off and Jack is considering how to go about saving Diane. So, we’ll see Jack explaining to Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) that Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) found out where Dr. Markham lives and they need to lure the guy out of there. So, Kyle has already volunteered to go in and search the place for Diane. And Billy is wondering what happens if Markham gets suspicious and goes back. So, we’ll see if Billy winds up helping Jack and Kyle with this caper.

Also, Victor springs into action to help Nikki as things get worse. Her vision is further impaired. Her headaches are getting worse. She needs surgery ASAP. So, maybe Victor is going to assemble a dream team to help her. Jill Abbott (Lauren Koslow) is back with temporary recast actress Lauren Koslow in the role. She’s gonna stay for just five episodes. So Jill gets together with Billy. She’s going to hear about the new grandchild she has on the way and that he and Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) are pregnant and engaged, all that good stuff. And Jill gets an update on Chancellor and Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) being named CEO.

Nate Gets an Offer on Y&R

Then on Friday, June 26th, Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) gets an offer to work on a special project. So, we’ll see if Victor recruited him to help Nikki. Remember, she wanted Nate to do her surgery, but he had to remind Nikki that he does not operate anymore. Victor finds out something new about Nikki’s diagnosis. We’ll see if Claire spills some more tea, or maybe he gets it from Nikki or even Nate.

Also, Kyle and Jack take a big risk where Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) is concerned and they are moving forward in their plan to save Diane. This may be when they make a move on Young and the Restless. So, they are going to try to get into Dr. Markham’s house of insanity.

Young and the Restless: July Sweeps in Full Gear – June 29th Through July 3rd

Then, the week of June 29th through July 3rd, this is actually the first full week of July sweeps. So, look for amped up drama. Also, Friday, July 3rd is a federal holiday for Independence Day, which falls on Saturday this year. So, there is a possibility of a rerun. So, keep an eye on your DVR just in case.

Also, Victor is going to be trying to make amends with Nikki and doing all he can to save her eyesight. Hopefully, Victor is going to insist that Nikki comes back home to the new ranch house as she is going through this crisis and surgery and recovery and all that. Nick is really struggling and there is a relapse on the horizon for him. Plus, Cane settles into the CEO chair at Chancellor. I think he is really going to love Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) being his boss. That way, he can flirt with her every chance that he gets. And Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) is going to continue to be hateful about all of it.

Nate Goes Back to Medicine on Y&R?

We’ll see if helping Nikki revives Nate’s passion for medicine. Remember, Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) was encouraging him about that recently. I also wonder if Nikki is going to be upset with Claire for telling Victor her secret or secretly glad that he knows since he is acting better after finding out. More should come to light about Dr. Markham and his bizarre twisted arrangement with crazy Patty. Once Jack and Kyle get Diane away from Markham, expect a big old meltdown from Patty when she finds out she lost her chance with Jack. Not that she really had a chance.

Also, Lauren Koslow wraps her run as Jill, and Jack is eager to throw Patty out of the Abbott mansion and move Diane back home and have a full and legitimate reconciliation of their marriage. However, even once Jack saves Diane, I do not expect Patty is going to go away quietly.
