Indicate that Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) will have a risky trick up his sleeve. Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) will also put Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters) first while Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) faces some alarm bells. Y&R fans know Jack was drugged on the yacht when he hit the sheets with Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk).

That’s not something Jack would’ve normally done, but Kyle will still blame his father on some level in Thursday’s episode.

Kyle saw how much pain Diane was in after she walked in on that shocker. That’s why Kyle will show off his protective side, so he’ll be in a fierce fight to protect Diane’s heart.

Of course, Kyle may plan on shielding Diane from Patty too since she’ll be making a comeback in Genoa City soon. Since Victor has a big reveal coming up involving a secret strategy, that may tie in with Patty’s GC return and what they plan to do next.

Patty already played a key role in what went down on the yacht, so Victor may praise her for the good work.

However, Victor isn’t done going after Jack, so he may push Patty to keep stirring up trouble and make sure Jack’s marriage is completely demolished. As for Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott), she’ll wrap up her conversation with Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) regarding Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and her partnership with Victor. Cane won’t want to believe that’s true, but he’ll eventually have to accept reality.

Nikki will ultimately turn her attention to Jack, who’ll be grateful when she takes a huge gamble for him.

If Nikki finds out something about Victor’s next plan to strike, she might take steps to warn Jack before it’s too late. Whatever the case, Victor’s decision to put Patty back in the mix could prove quite dangerous.

Patty is a wildcard who’s capable of anything, so bad news may be brewing when her rehabilitation inevitably doesn’t stick! The Young and the Restless spoilers say Jack and Diane have more obstacles ahead of them thanks to Patty and Victor, so stay tuned.
