Lily faces a loss 

In the upcoming episode of The Young and the Restless, Lily’s troubled French getaway takes a turn when she discovers Damian’s dead body, leaving her devastated. Already unsettled by Cane and Amanda’s comments about her love life, Lily is further shaken by the grisly sight.

Phyllis, who had been trying to get Damian medical help, ends up being the one to break the bad news as staff members carry away the body. Lily’s shock and horror intensify the drama. Her next move is expected to be demanding answers from those around her, especially Cane, whose role in the incident remains under scrutiny.

Nick makes an escape attempt

Nick continues his mission to prove he is just as capable as his brother Adam, this time by attempting a solo escape from Cane’s compound. Driven by the desire to return to Sharon and frustrated by recent events, Nick finds Phyllis near the maze and expresses concern about her condition.

Their conversation suggests Nick may know more than he is letting on. As Phyllis hints that the situation has become a matter of life and death, Nick realizes the urgency of the moment. However, it remains unclear whether his escape plan will succeed or put the group at greater risk.

Chance begins his investigation outside the law

Chance finally has a purpose in France after Damian’s murder gives him a case to work on. Despite having no official jurisdiction, Chance steps in as an investigator. Cane leads him to the crime scene, where they discover the murder weapon and key evidence have been removed.

Though Cane insists he was the intended victim, Chance remains cautious and questions him thoroughly. Cane offers Chance $500,000 to serve as his private investigator instead of involving local authorities, prompting ethical concerns. Still, Chance begins probing further, determined to understand what really happened and who is trying to cover it up.

Phyllis is under pressure as suspicion mounts

Phyllis grows more uneasy as Cane dismisses her concerns about Damian’s condition. She suspects foul play and becomes further rattled after Cane claims Damian is already dead. Her suspicions intensify when Cane reveals the details of the attack, insisting he was the real target.

As Abby and Devon question her, Phyllis becomes overwhelmed and flees, only to run into Nick. Their brief exchange raises further concerns as Phyllis hints at the life-threatening nature of the situation. With Chance soon planning to question her formally, Phyllis finds herself at the center of a mystery she is desperate to escape.

The Young and the Restless airs on CBS.
