The Young And The Restless Spoilers: Cane’s Massive Endgame Revealed As Phyllis Shows No Mercy

The Young and the Restless spoilers document that Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) is willing to do anything to get his family released.

He believes that Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and their now-adult twin children are being held hostage by Victor Newman (Eric Braeden). But Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) disagrees and that’s a major problem.

Victor demanded that Cane figure out a way to get Phyllis to relinquish her stranglehold on Newman Enterprises. Cane thought that was impossible, but then had a few days to reconsider.

Desperation and a heated conversation, or more accurately, confrontation, with his former brother-in-law, Devon Winters (Bryton James), helped to sharpen Cane’s focus.

Then, Phyllis arrived in the hokey train car. Although it is probably most accurate to say that Cane’s living and business quarters are totally soapy.

Who Lives On A Replica Train?

Before the subject header question is answered, let’s ask another one. How is Cane funding anything since Victor dissolved Arabesque?

Okay, as for the train, Cane said that he has trains on multiple continents that match the one viewers first saw him in last summer.

That south of France party turned deadly and was a complete disaster for the former Aristotle Dumas, as the audience painfully recalls.

That introductory storyline, which presented the recast Cane to Y&R’s fans, was stretched many weeks too long.

But possibly suffocation was the intended effect because, to be fair-minded or generous, it felt like the writing staff wanted viewers to empathize with the characters who were trapped at Cane’s chateau.

Victor Newman Refuses To Blame Himself

Of course, this is classic Moustache. Victor has lashed out at everyone since Newman Enterprises was lost. Yet, he refuses to blame himself for what happened.

If, as his loving and wise wife told him, Victor would have destroyed the artificial intelligence program, it’s possible or even probable that he would still be sitting in his fabled executive suite top-quality leather chair.

Instead, he wanted to eviscerate the company Cane built with his late father, Colin Atkinson (played by the late, great Tristan Rogers). Victor also planned to take out Jabot, and that wasn’t just bravado.

So, Braeden’s character had a thirst for power and couldn’t quench it. That character flaw has hurt Victor in the past and is costing him very dearly now.

Phyllis Summers Is Unflappable But Also Mistake-Prone

Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) knows that Phyllis won’t give up the power she stole. He told as much to Sharon Newman (Sharon Case), who wanted to believe in the bond she formed with Phyllis when they were kidnapped last year.

Morrow is killing it while playing his character being hooked on an illegal substance that he’s substituted for a proper pain-killer.

Nick’s frazzled mind isn’t so far gone that he went after Phyllis. He’s saving his wrath focus for Matt Clark (Roger Howarth), which is the more pressing personal matter.

Phyllis isn’t inclined to help Cane by giving Newman Enterprises, which she might rebrand as Summers Limited. Her no-mercy approach is steeped in the analysis Sharon offered.

Stafford’s character is riding high and intends to stay there. That’s her self-defense mechanism until, as Nick suspected and predicted, she’ll make too many silly moves and lose it all. In the meantime, she has to deal with Cane and his enforcers.
