This is the Canadian Y&R day ahead recap from the Wednesday, June 9, 2021 episode, which airs in the USA Thursday, June 10. In the previous episode, Sally asked Tara to help break up Summer and Kyle, so she could keep Kyle for herself, and in today’s episode, Chelsea worries about her relationship with Connor, Ashland renounces his demands, and Michael wants Rey to discuss Chelsea.

In Victoria’s office, Nikki pressures her daughter to give her a hint about the secret she’s keeping. It sounds as though she has been invited to New York City by a determined man. Victoria refuses to discuss it but Nikki is reminded that Ashland Locke asked her to lunch previously. She deduces that it was him. Victoria admits it. They’re friends. Nikki doesn’t think he’s pursuing her as a friend. They work and then Nikki again pressures her daughter to fess up. Nikki doesn’t think she should start something with the man. She has a problem with how Ashland does business. Victoria rolls her eyes. “Have you seen who you’ve been married to all these years?” Nikki thinks Ash might be using her. “Not everything has to be this deep codependent relationship like the one you have with Dad,” she says. Nikki gripes, “I’m going to pretend you didn’t say that.”

Adam reminds her she didn’t take time out to text Connor when she was able to. Instead, she texted Sharon, pretending to be him. He wants to think that she was being a good mother by not doing this. She paces and rants that she’s tired of people thinking she’s crazy. “The truth is the sanest thing I’ve ever done is to…” She catches herself and Adam asks her to continue. She covers. “Coming here is the sanest thing I’ve done. It’s been rewarding.” She reveals she’s getting clarity. He’s glad to hear and promises she can see Connor as much as she likes once she’s out.
