Plus, there could be severe complications with a well-intentioned plan. Keep reading to find out what is coming up in the CBS soap opera.
New York Bonding
Let’s start off with Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) and Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin). Holden has to go to New York in light of Malcolm Winters’ (Shemar Moore) procedure. Holden invited Claire to come along, and she eventually agreed.
So, when they go into New York, there could be some close moments between them. Fans recall the last time they went on a trip together, things got freaky. So, we imagine Claire might ride Holden once again!
Second Chance
As for Malcolm, it looks like he is going to get a second chance at life thanks to Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn).

Everyone keeps saying the medical couriers know what they are doing. I wonder why they are mentioning it so much. Could Cane’s stem cells go missing en route to New York?
In any case, Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) is softening towards Cane more each day. While Devon Winters (Bryton James) thinks Lily is being foolish, she knows Cane better than most.
Nick Newman’s Addiction
The Young and the Restless spoilers for the week of May 18 reveal that Nick Newman’s (Joshua Morrow) addiction could come with some consequences. Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) told Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) about his suspicions.
Then, it is teased that Victor will deliver tough love to Nick. It sounds like Nick might be ordered to go to rehab, or stay away from the entire Newman family.

Of course, Nick will use the excuse that Matt is still out there. Victor might assure Nick that he has the Matt situation handled, though.
What Else to Expect
As for what else to expect, will Matt have a total recall after seeing Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun)? Matt might not remember anything except that Sienna hit him with a rock.
So, that could have Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) wondering if Sienna has been lying to them all along. It could also put a monkey’s wrench into Sienna and Noah Newman’s (Lucas Adams) romance.
Plus, Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) wants to trick Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) into switching sides. However, she seems like a smart lady. Crazy, but smart. So, I wonder how she will deal with Jack’s forbidden proposition?
