Mariah Copeland Punished

The little boy did not realize he had been kidnapped. So far, it seems that Devon and Abby are protecting Dominic from that truth.

Meanwhile, Mariah is being taken to a local police station by Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) and Detective Burrow (Matt Cohen). Mariah will be transported back to Genoa City, where she has to face the consequences.

Abby Winters’ Struggle

Over with Abby and Devon, they will be so grateful that Dominic is back home and safe. However, this isn’t the first time they have had issues with Mariah trying to keep Dominic.

While it’s true that the redhead has mental health issues, Devon and Abby shouldn’t have to always look over their shoulder either.

So, Abby and Devon will struggle with how to forgive Mariah.

Tessa Porter Torn

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Monday, February 16 reveal that Tessa will feel divided. The woman already decided to file for divorce and move on with Daniel Romalotti, Jr. (Michael Grazaidei). However, now that Mariah has been arrested and will face a trial, there could be a twist. 

Tessa will feel like she needs answers from Mariah, and to support her in light of this arrest. At the same time, Daniel has been so kind, patient, and understanding. It wouldn’t really be fair for him if Tessa just went back to Mariah after everything.

Sharon Newman’s Battle

If anyone knows what it is like to face the justice system while having a mental break, it’s Sharon. So, she will likely post bail or bond for Mariah, if it’s granted.

There will also likely be a search for a lawyer to defend Mariah as well as more mental health treatment. 

With Sharon also learning that Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) is hiding a secret from her, she could have way too much on her plate again.
