Matt Clark’s Bait & Switch

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Monday, April 13, suggest that Matt will pull the old bait and switch where Nick and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) are concerned.

As fans know, Riza Thomson (Tina Casciani) organized a “meet and greet” between Adam and her “partner” Matt on the Friday, April 10 episode.

Instead of Adam heading into the room, the Newman brothers agreed to let Nick go instead, but to keep his phone on. When Nick entered the room, Matt ambushed him from behind, placing a black sack over his head.

From the looks of it, Matt will somehow drag Nick out of the hotel room and into some sort of storage room.

Still, as Adam was close by and on the phone, how would Matt do this without his brother seeing him being kidnapped?

Nick Newman’s Hostage Situation

Meanwhile, Nick will finally get the confrontation with Matt that he wanted; however, it won’t be on his terms.

Matt will somehow have Nick in a storage room, and once he comes to, the villain will take Nick’s sack off and reveal himself.

Nick’s hands will be tied behind his back, and from the sounds of it, Matt will gloat that he got the upper hand.

With that said, what will Matt do with Nick?

Abbott Vs. Abbott

In addition, The Young and the Restless spoilers for April 13 suggest that fans should brace for a confrontation between Traci and Diane. Traci is usually gentle with her words, but viewers should expect a harsher version of the Abbott family’s “peacemaker”.

As Diane is giving Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) the silent treatment over his one night with Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk), Traci will remind Diane of all the lies she’s told Jack over the years, specifically the one where she pretended to be dead when she wasn’t.

Diane not only fooled Jack with that one, but her son, Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor), too.

Diane will get rather emotional as Traci lashes out at her, but will she also reconsider her stance with Jack?

Can Diane forgive him for what he’s done if he was able to forgive her?
