Shemar Moore will reprise the role of Malcolm Winters while Vivica A.

Fox steps back into the role of Dr. Stephanie Simmons.

There’s the potential for Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) to be Stephanie and Malcolm’s long-lost child, so that’s an option to keep in mind.

Holden could end up bonding with Claire Newman (Hayley Erin) over what it feels like to have family drop into your lap in adulthood. Regardless, it’s obvious that Claire isn’t done with Holden. Claire’s reckless side is still craving Holden and all the wild ways he satisfies her, so they may land back in bed together soon.

Over with Sharon Newman (Sharon Case), she may develop some concerns when it comes to Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) and Daniel Romalotti Jr.’s (Michael Graziadei) persistent bond.

Will Sharon confront Tessa over her Barcelona trip with Daniel and the potential album they’re going to make together? Sharon may wonder if Tessa is truly committed to giving her marriage another shot or if she just gave Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) false hope.

Of course, Sharon could also worry about the possibility of Mariah having a mental health setback in her psychiatric facility if she finds out Daniel and Tessa are still so connected. While Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) schemes and tries to find an ally or two, Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) and Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) will move forward with their vengeful Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) goals.

Thanks to Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) and Sally Spectra’s (Courtney Hope) London trip, Billy will hopefully repair his relationship with Jill Abbott (Jess Waltson) and deepen his connection to Sally.

Sally and Billy are going to talk about their future together, so could Billy pop the question? Even if marriage doesn’t become part of the conversation yet, Billy and Sally may acknowledge that they’re moving in a positive direction. As for Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn), it probably won’t take long for his anger toward Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) to fade.

Since Y&R spoilers say Cane’s going to step up and give Lily some proof of the man he can be, a romantic reunion may be looming.

In Las Vegas, fans will see the Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) drama erupt with dangerous consequences. Some behind-the-scenes info points to a huge explosion, so will Matt perish in the blast or use it as a chance to get away?

Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) and drug-addicted Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) will face some shockers regardless, so stay tuned for all the chaotic news that’s brewing. The Young and the Restless spoilers say some curveballs are still to come on the CBS soap.
