Young And The Restless Spoilers – Abby Flips Over Victor’s Arrest
Mariah sits with Tessa (Cait Fairbanks), revealing the run in she had with Abby at the GCPD. Tessa feels Mariah shouldn’t be surprised that Abby would defend her dad and Mariah was only doing her job; there was no malicious intent on her. Mariah says they both know who killed JT, and it wasn’t Victor. Rey stops Abby from verbally assaulting police officers and everything is up to the courts to decide. He refuses to let her see Victor as she pleads for Victor to know she is there for him. Rey gives her a few minutes with her dad.
Cane listens to Charlie as he tells him the same story Victoria did. He is upset that Charlie didn’t talk to him and feels guilty for not keeping a closer eye on him. Charlie admits he did stop Reed from confessing, wishing he could erase the entire night; wanting to know how he is supposed to live with the guilt if Nikki dies?
Mariah feels bad for Abby, but Tessa reminds her how Abby likes to steal other women’s men and she even sued her own father for half a billion dollars. Mariah thinks she is a fake and a horrible person; she hides behind her humor, using it to be the opposite of nice. Tessa feels she is being too hard on herself.
Mariah reminds Tessa that she has people who look up to her and she has to be better for them. She admits this secret is destroying so many people’s lives and wishes to tell the truth to get it off her chest; she wants there to be a way to prove they killed JT in self defense. Tessa believes that someone is going down for JT’s murder and its better to be Victor than Sharon (Sharon Case).
Victor tells Abby if the jury were 12 people who had faith like her, this case would be fine. He is proud of her when she tells him that she will not allow Rey to push her around. Victor wants Abby to tell him about the restaurant, saying he will never stop caring about Abby. Meanwhile back at GCAC, Mariah approaches Fen, who reveals he has had better days than now. Fen talks about doing something really stupid, wishing they could take back. He wishes he could keep his big mouth shut as Mariah reveals she is working on the same thing herself. She suggests he tone it down and ask for a do-over.
Lola is frustrated that Kyle feels Fen is the reason they broke up. She wished he knew her well enough to know an expensive gift like that makes her uncomfortable – partly because she can’t afford to buy him the same things and doesn’t want to be with someone who uses their money to show her how much they care. He is shocked, but prefers the honesty.
