Missing Child Search

Let’s start off with Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes), who has kidnapped Dominic Newman-Abbott-Winters-Chancellor (Ethan Ray Clark).

The little boy is missing, but nobody realizes he’s been taken yet. Abby is really starting to freak out and tells her husband that it’s going to get dark soon.

It is teased that Devon and Abby will get some help searching for Dom from Detective Burrow (Matt Cohen).

Mariah Copeland Runs

Meanwhile, Mariah already has Dom in the back seat of her car. The little boy is asleep, and we can see Mariah calmly driving. With her hands firmly on the steering wheel, Mariah takes a deep breath and stays focused on her mission.

However, it should be noted that Mariah left her brown scarf on the chair at Devon and Abby’s place. The parents might not recognize the scarf, but I bet Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) or Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) might!

Victoria Newman Distraught

The Young and the Restless spoilers for tomorrow’s episode reveal that Victoria will be distraught and uncertain. The family legacy is under attack and none of them know quite what to do to fix things.

Victoria wants to be her father’s right-hand woman this time. However, there is a reason why Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) left his daughter out of the next plan.

Nate Hastings Comfort

While Victoria will be overwhelmed, she will get some comfort and assurance. It won’t be from a family member, but from a former flame.

When Nate finds Victoria all rattled, he will do his best to talk her through this situation. Nate will even offer her a hug which could reignite some old feelings.

Sally Spectra’s Bold Move

As for Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope), she will make a bold move. Since Jill Abbott (Jess Walton) isn’t doing well health-wise, Sally could make some controversial decisions.

One might have to do with Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver). While everyone has warned Sally not to hire Audra, she seems determined to make it happen anyway.

It will either be the best decision Sally ever makes, or the worst. So, stay tuned for all the drama!
