The Young and the Restless spoilers for the week of March 23 tease some curveballs. Fans can expect Riza Thomson (Tina Casciani) to have a bad reaction.

There will likely be more Las Vegas curveballs as well. Plus, Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) has a hidden twist.

Back in Genoa City, Christina Blair Romalotti (Lauralee Bell) needs help with Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes). Keep reading to find out what is coming up in the CBS soap opera.

Bad Reaction

Let’s start off with Adam Newman (Mark Grossman). The man was confident that he could play off his history with Riza.

However, when Spider shows up, Riza pulls a gun on him! While this could be a mistake, Riza doesn’t put the gun down after seeing it’s Adam.

Instead, she continues to point it out and demands he put his hands behind his head.

It sounds like Riza is already tangled up in Matt Clark’s (Roger Howarth) mess. If Riza and Matt are lovers, then that could complicate things even further!

Las Vegas Curveballs

Over in a casino, Nick calls Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) while Adam tries to get intel from Riza. When Nick calls his son, he says they’ve planted the seeds. However, Noah questions exactly what that means.

While Nick is waiting for Adam to finish with Riza, he could run into some trouble. 

Lauren Fenmore Baldwin’s Challenge

The Young and the Restless spoilers for the week of March 23 reveal that Lauren Fenmore Baldwin (Tracey E.  Bregman) will be ready to tackle a new challenge.

Despite the risks, Lauren has decided to take the job offer from Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford).

Christine Blair Romalotti’s Plea

As for Christine, she will reach out to Sharon Newman (Sharon Case). The lawyer will admit she needs to talk to Sharon alone. It seems Christine needs some help with Mariah.

It sounds like Christine might doubt a not guilty plea is in Mariah’s best interest. Perhaps Christine wants Mariah to consider pleading guilty in exchange for mandatory mental health treatment?

Lily Winters’ Return

There is also Lily Winters (Christel Khalil), who should be coming back any day now. It is teased that Lily could have finally forgiven Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn).

However, while Lily and Cane need to see what is next, Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) could complicate that plan. So, stay tuned to find out what’s going to happen next in Genoa City!
