Jack Abbott Busted

Let’s start off with Jack, who ends up falling into Patty Williams’ (Stacy Haiduk) trap as well as her bed! It seems Jack is drugged, but it’s not clear if Patty knows what she’s doing or not.

In any case, Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters) is on her way to save her beloved husband.

Running down the halls of a big boat, Diane screams Jack’s name and bangs on a door. It seems that Diane is going to discover Jack in Patty’s bed!

Diane Jenkins Abbott’s Rage

When Diane sees that Jack isn’t in any danger at all, she will be furious. At first, Diane might not realize that Jack is drugged. In any case, Jack is going to have a lot of explaining to do.

Even though he could say he didn’t know what he was doing, Diane might reason that his subconscious felt drawn to Patty. So, this could be the beginning of the end for this couple.

Extreme Measures

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Monday, March 16 reveal that Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) will go to extreme measures to protect his family’s empire.

However, Nikki feels that he has gone way too far. Nikki has a bit of a moral code and doesn’t like the cost of getting Chancellor bag.

Nikki realizes that people are more important than a company. Unfortunately, she isn’t going to get any information from Victor on Jack’s location.

Past Resurfaces

Over with Chelsea, she has faith in Adam. However, she will still fear about Adam going to see Riza Thompson (last played by Tina Casciani) in Las Vegas.

That will have Adam opening up to the door to his Spider past. So, what is going to happen while Adam is gone?

Traci Abbott Reconnects

Back to Nikki, she will reach out to Traci. In a preview clip, we can see Nikki sharing what information she knows from Victor. The intel stuns Traci, but as a mystery writer, she can probably connect the dots.

However, what they don’t realize is that Diane has already found Jack with Patty!
