Matt Clark Makes Waves

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Friday, July 17, reveal that Matt does something that creates waves where Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) and Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) are concerned.

While Sienna is indifferent to Matt’s declaration that he’s a changed man, Noah doesn’t trust him one bit.

Unfortunately, all Matt has to pull is one wrong move – whether that be intentional or unintentional – and Noah will see red. Does this have to do with Genoa City’s Shadow Room?

Will he do something at the club that triggers Noah … or sparks a fight between Noah and Sienna? Fans will have to tune in to find out!

Devon Winters’ Meltdown

Speaking of being triggered, it sounds like Devon will have another outburst. Added teasers imply that Devon will do something that worries Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic).

Devon has some pent-up anger, and he’s been known to lash out lately. While Devon has made it clear that he isn’t a fan of Lily and Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) reuniting, the underlying issue is Mariah Copeland (Camyrn Grimes) and her kidnapping of Dominic Winters Chancellor (Ethan Ray Clark).

Devon is having a hard time forgiving her and taking it out on other situations. So, what does he do during Friday’s episode to raise alarms?

 

Fresh Chapter

Finally, The Young and the Restless spoilers for July 17 hint that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) will decide to start over.

This couldn’t possibly mean they are agreeing on a reunion, could it? While they were on good terms initially after her eye surgery, when Nikki went to see Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) at the hospital during the Wednesday, July 15 show, they fell 10 steps behind.

Victor viewed Nikki’s visit as a ‘betrayal’ and has been spicy with her ever since.

As Nikki is set to get her bandages off, could they agree to a fresh start?

Nikki has claimed that she won’t fully reunite with Victor until he apologises for bringing Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) back to town and for all the trouble this has caused the Abbotts.

Victor saying, “I’m sorry,” is unlikely, so perhaps this ‘do over’ is more about being civil with one another in front of their kids and grandchildren than anything else.
