Adam Newman’s Mission

Let’s start off with Adam Newman (Mark Grossman), who will go to Las Vegas with Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow). The two men will be on their way to see Adam’s old contact, Riza Thomson (last played by Tina Casciani).

Adam thinks that he can use his history with Riza to get her to spill information about Matt Clark (Roger Howarth).

While Adam will try to focus on the mission to locate Matt, he will also struggle with his past as Spider.

Setting a Trap

While they are in Las Vegas, Nick and Adam will set a trap for Matt. According to a weekly preview clip, Adam assures his brother that once they find Matt, he can do whatever he wants to the man.

Sally Spectra’s Push

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Wednesday, March 18 reveal that Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) will try to help Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson).

Personally, I think Sally is more of a mother to Billy than a girlfriend. It was also a huge mistake for her to go back to him. In any case, Sally will try to get Billy to repair his relationship with Jill Abbott (Jess Walton) before it’s too late.

What Else to Expect

As for what else to expect in tomorrow’s episode, Phyllis will get an answer from Lauren about the job offer. Although Lauren was initially negative about it, she ends up surprising her friend.

However, with Phyllis striking a deal with Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), things are a bit messy right now.

There is also a chance that Lauren finds out about Victor kidnapping Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman). With the Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) twist, Lauren could let Phyllis know that Jack was already rescued.

The redhead will be furious over making a deal with Victor when Jack has already been located. So, let’s see how Phyllis reacts, and what she does next.

The woman has been stomping all over everyone in town like she’s the queen. The faster they rise, the harder they fall.
