Their goal? Disrupt Kyle’s world in a way that leaves lasting damage. But with Victor also plotting his takedown, they may be walking a tightrope—because once Victor puts someone in his crosshairs, anyone who gets in the way may suffer collateral damage.Meanwhile, Audra Charles finds herself at a moral crossroads.

And when trust is broken, love may not be enough to save them.

Elsewhere in Genoa City, Summer Newman silently battles her own emotional turmoil. While appearing strong and composed on the outside, she remains haunted by her past with Kyle.

But Chance’s own journey is complicated, as he’s swept into a dangerous investigation that may have shocking consequences for the entire city.

The emotional weight of past love, the hunger for power, and the lengths people will go to protect their legacies all come to a boiling point in the next two weeks. With Victor pulling strings, alliances forming in secret, and love hanging in the balance, The Young and the Restless promises a storm of explosive drama. Will Victor succeed in destroying Kyle?
