Meanwhile, his suffering wife, Abby Newman Abbott Chancellor (Melissa Ordway), and his son, Dominic Phillip Newman Abbott Chancellor (no baby actor known to be cast for this role), need help.
Abby does have the other characters, seemingly written into proximity by Y&R’s writing staff to create a month’s-long distraction for the audience while Chance is away. So, when will this weird scenario end?
The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Chance Chancellor Is An Important Character
Chance, being his nickname, was fourth in the line of Chancellors. His full name is Phillip Robert Chancellor IV. Phillip Robert Chancellor III (Thom Bierdz) was last seen on Y&R in 2011.
Phillip Robert Chancellor II (Donnelly Rhodes), whose father, Phillip Robert Chancellor I (no actor known to be cast for this retrospective role) infamously died in 1975. His death occurred during one of Y&R’s all-time arcs.
Katherine Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper) was married to Gary Reynolds (no actor ever known to be cast for this retrospective role). Gary and Phillip II were friends in school. Gary’s death was followed by Katherine’s marriage to Phillip II, but that union was ill-fated.

Cooper’s character picked up Phillip II at the airport. A fight ensued, with an inebriated Katherine flooring the gas pedal and causing an accident. Phillip II died in the hospital a short time later but married Jill Foster (as most recently played by Jess Walton) before that farewell.
Jill gave birth to Phillip III months later. The dramatic events sparked the arguably greatest battle in this show’s history, as Jill and Katherine became mortal enemies.
Y&R Spoilers – Legacy Break Or Not?
Abby’s choice to name Chabs’ baby Dominic could be cited as a Chancellor legacy break. She did use the second of the baby’s five names to pay respect to Chance. Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes), the surrogate mother, found Abby’s list of names to be very Abby, which meant that her name decisions were a bit much.
Due to surgery following a shooting Chance was unable to father a child. Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) served as the donor, making him Dominic’s biological father. Devon’s place as Katherine’s grandson reflects a creative touch on the writing staff’s behalf.

So, Abby did not break the Chancellor’s legacy when not using Phillip Robert for her biological son’s first and middle names.
The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Open Storyline Ends Still Flailing
As fans recall, Abby is believed to be unable to conceive due to scar tissue that resulted from her miscarriage. That condition developed when Ben Stitch Rayburn’s (Sean Carrigan) son, Max Rayburn (Jared Breeze), purposely set a trap that caused Abby to fall down the stairs at the Genoa City Athletic Club and lose Stabby’s baby.
The audience came to see why Stitch was written back into the show, after being gone for years. But fans still don’t know why Chance is being kept away.
Here’s hoping that the loose ends, during what has been an overly complex tale, are soon addressed. Abby, Dominic, and their observers on the other side of the screen need closure.

Maybe Chance will be killed or can never come back like Dillion??? Abby and Devon would be the proud parents.. Could be a mess??? Maybe not..
Victoria should kick Assholeland to the curb!!! He's playing her like a banjo!!!
It’s really stupid people carrying around a blanket at least they could come up with one of those dolls that cry and move ,B&B have a real baby .plus Abby is a spoiled BRAT Marcia should be treated a lot better than she is Abby don’t say anything but if looks could kill Marhia would be dead , she doesn’t like her around the baby at all and that’s cruel !
And doing a great job , he’s evil
Story line is so screwed up. First of all no matter what job you do somehow in emergency you can get leave or video or something. NOT SILENCE even from his boss. Marhia was missing/kidnapped and Ben was not found, still could be danger. and his baby to be. Then he becomes a father. Give me a break.
I really wanted Chance (Danny) to come back, or be recast so the character could go on but now it's been too long and I could not care less if he returns. What I do hope is that the writers stop making Abby whine about everything, it is getting old. Be a strong, single parent role model and stop all the whining.
I think Chance is off investigating Ashland.
I see no reason why Mariah should still be living at the Chancellor mansion. She has too much access to the baby to keep the bond alive. Also, why did it take so long for the ambulance to get to the seen of the delivery. The clock showed sometning like 6:10 and the delivery was around 6:35 or so. If everyone knew where Mariah was being held why didn't they call to have an ambulance there just incase it was needed. I just think that was very poorly written…..
