The Young and the Restless spoilers for Thursday, July 16, hint that Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) will play dirty, while Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) spirals in recovery.

Plus, Claire Newman (Hayley Erin) mourns a loved one. Learn more about what’s going down during Thursday’s show, below!

Key Takeaways

  • Sally faces fresh stress as Victor’s latest scheme threatens her business and pregnancy.
  • Nikki grows increasingly concerned that Nick could be headed for a sobriety relapse.
  • Victoria and Claire honor Cole’s memory on the anniversary of his death.

Victor Newman Plays Dirty

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Thursday, July 16, suggest that Victor will pull an underhanded move where Spectra-Charles Communication is concerned.

During the Wednesday, July 15 episode, Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) tried to reason with Victor to back off on snagging Newman Media back from Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope), which is now under Spectra-Charles.

The twosome wants to rebuild Newman media from the ground up and give Sally a stress-free pregnancy. Sadly, Victor wasn’t having it.

Now it looks like The Moustache will strike at SC, which will only send Sally reeling.

 

Nikk Newman’s Worry

Across town, Nick may take a turn for the worse where his sobriety is concerned. Added teasers imply that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) will worry about Nick staying on track, so will he do something that causes her concern?

Fans will have to tune in to find out!

Honoring Cole Howard

Lastly, The Young and the Restless spoilers for July 16 reveal that Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) and Claire will honor Cole Howard’s (J. Eddie Peck) memory.

It’s been a year since Cole passed away, and the mother-daughter duo will likely come together to remember him.

Vicky does have a lifetime of memories with Cole, but unfortunately, Claire only got to know him for a short amount of time before he passed away.

With that said, Claire is grateful for what she got and that she learned the truth about her mom and dad.

There’s a good chance that there will be some flashback clips of Cole’s time in Genoa City, so there will be some bittersweet moments fans can reminisce over.
