The Young and the Restless Monday, December 8 Recap: Cane Sabotages Phyllis for Payback – Matt’s Vengeful Surprise
The Young and the Restless (Y&R) recap for Monday, December 8, reveals that Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) will plan to sabotage Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) for payback while Matt Clark aka “Mitch Bacall” (Roger Howarth) plots a vengeful surprise.
At the jazz lounge, Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) will mosey up to Phyllis at the bar and give her updates on Victor’s upcoming move against Jabot during the Abbott Communications launch party.
However, Adam will admit he’s heard rumblings about the Abbotts taking certain steps to protect themselves. Phyllis and Adam will eventually talk about what happens after the attack, so she’ll worry Victor might renege on his deal.
Adam will insist Phyllis is going to get Jabot, but he’ll warn about the optics of her taking over immediately. Phyllis will admit Cane seems to be growing bored with their game – and she’ll confess to feeling the same way.
After Cane has a prickly encounter with Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters) at the GCAC bar, he’ll head down to the jazz lounge.
Cane will notice Adam and Phyllis with their heads together, but Adam will act like Phyllis was just defending Cane to him.
Once Adam exits, Cane will once again push Phyllis for the truth, but she’ll stand by her claim that she didn’t steal the AI program.
Since both Cane and Phyllis will be fed up on Monday’s Y&R episode, they call each other out for their mutual manipulation.
Cane will assure Phyllis that his offer to be partners was legit, so he’ll think she’s going to regret not trusting him. Now Cane will plan to sabotage Phyllis’ Jabot takeover and her employment anywhere else, so he’ll vow to make her pay.
Once Adam makes his way upstairs, he’ll run into Jack and Diane. Adam will seem uncomfortable and try to make a quick exit, but Jack will ask him to Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) a “better luck next time” message.
Speaking of Victor, he’ll be part of the discussion at the hotel once Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) and Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) arrive.
Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) will enjoy a happy reunion with Noah, who’ll apologize for not listening to them about how dangerous Matt aka “Mitch” was.
Victor will admit to wiping out Matt’s assets and leaving him totally broke, so Sienna will worry about what this means for her. With Matt still on the loose, Noah will push Sienna to come to Genoa City with them so he can keep her safe.
Sharon, Nick and Victor will be visibly unsettled over that plan, so Victor will end up taking Sienna for a private chat in the lobby. That’s where Victor will admit The Shadow Room now belongs to Noah.
As for Sienna, Victor will offer her a bribe to stay as far away from Noah as possible, but Sienna will refuse to let anyone bully or buy her. It’ll be up to Noah to decide whether he wants Sienna around.
Back with Noah, he’ll defend Sienna to his parents and make it clear that he’s not bailing on her.
Later, everyone will reconvene in a suite, where Victor will receive news that the Newman is jet is ready. Noah will wonder what Sienna’s decided when it comes to going to Genoa City with them.
At The Shadow Room, Matt will pour himself drinks and make raging phone calls seeking confirmation on his finances.
Matt will also leave Detective Annie Stewart (Catherine Kresge) an agitated message. Annie will eventually show up and admit Detective Burrow (Matt Cohen) got her gun away from her before she bolted.
After Annie assumes Burrow called for backup and put APBs out on both of them, she’ll warn Matt this is the last place they should be. Matt will fume since Victor decimated his finances and left him without the resources to run or hide.
However, Matt will decide to score some leverage on the Newmans so he can get back what he’s lost before he disappears. Annie will question Matt about what he’s planning, so he’ll hint about something the Newmans will never see coming.
