(The Canadian Y&R day ahead recap for June 27, 2023 episode airs in the USA June 26. Recaps live by 4:15 PM EST daily.)
At Sharon’s, she’s on the phone with Faith, assuring her she doesn’t need to check on her.
She jumps when there’s a knock at the door. It’s Adam.
She gets off the line and he apologizes for startling her. “What kind of jerk visits a crime victim’s house at this time of night without calling first?” she asks.
She adds that those were Faith’s words. He wanted to see how she was doing.
Sharon assures him she’s okay staying alone. She wouldn’t let Cameron break her when he was alive and won’t now that he’s dead. She did what was necessary and would do it again in a heartbeat.
They sit and she tells him the pain of losing a baby never goes away. “It’s nice I have that to look forward to,” he says.
She assumes he’s avoiding facing this and losing Sally too. The therapist tells him that he and Sally need to talk about their loss.
Sharon urges him to find a way to forgive himself. “What am I supposed to do now?” he asks.
Taking a drink of water, he tells her that Sally hates him. He’s poured his heart out to her but he’s a loser in the blame game and they are going their separate ways.
She asks what he was thinking when he chose Sally over the baby.
Adam wanted them both but he made a choice with the information he had. It was a choice for Sally, not him.
Having had enough, Adam decides to leave and abruptly walks out.
Nick takes Sally to her room at the GCAC. She gets annoyed by all his hovering. She can’t pretend that things are okay.
She tells him he’s been nothing but sweet. He offers to give her space and his invitation to move in with him doesn’t have an expiration date.
She’s not in the right frame of mind for good things right now. He offers to take the worst she can throw at him.
Sally doesn’t think he can handle seeing her with the mask off. He reminds her that he’s dealt with his father for years.
If she starts screaming, she’s not sure she’ll ever be able to stop. Nick promises to be there.
Sally can’t get over losing Ava. She was going to be her everything and now she has to spend the rest of her life forgetting.
She wants everyone who has told her she will be okay to die.
Lashing out at him, she points out she was so stressed out because he shut her out and wouldn’t answer her calls. As she cries about him not being there when she needed him, he holds her.
He’s sorry for how everything turned out.
She’s exhausted. Kissing her, he helps her over to the bed and she rests in his arms.
Sally tells him he’s had a rough couple of days and doesn’t have to stay. He’s not going anywhere until she falls asleep.
Nick goes down to the bar. Sharon calls to say she’s okay and he doesn’t need to worry about her.
He offers to come over and explains he’s been forced into a leave of absence at work.
She’s sure he will find a productive way to spend his time on R&R. He asks her to call if she needs him.
When he gets off the line, Adam wanders in.
They start arguing. Nick doesn’t know what he’s thinking and accuses him of going to see Sharon to get some direction in his life.
They bicker about Sally and Adam points out that he shoved her aside for Sharon.
“You got to be the hero and I’m the one who took all the blame,” Adam complains.
Nick says no one asked for what happened that night but is glad he was there. His brother keeps ranting about him coming out of this smelling like a rose while his whole life falls apart.
He gets stuck doing the unspeakable. Nick says it’s up to Sally. Wherever things go is up to her.
He says that she’s decided there is nothing between her and Adam so he should respect that and stay away from her.
Adam walks off.
Back in her room, Sally wakes up and notices she’s alone. She gets out the little box with Ava’s booties and footprints in and holds them.
