Victoria Tells Miserable Chelsea to Stay Away from Johnny, and Phyllis Tries to Start a Fight with Sally After Nick Fires Her

In this episode of CBS’ The Young and the Restless, Victoria tells Nikki Sally is out, Nikki interrogates Nick about his relationship with Sally, and Phyllis has awkward conversations with everyone she meets while Harrison joins Summer and Kyle on their honeymoon.

In the previous episode, Devon was furious Nate wouldn’t give up his accomplice, and Victoria had Nick fire Sally and replaced her with Nate.

(The Canadian Y&R day ahead recap for October 26, 2022 episode airs in the USA October 27. Recaps live by 4:15 PM EST daily.)

Nikki drops by her daughter’s office at Newman. Victoria informs her she offered Nate the CEO position at Newman Media.

“What?” Nikki asks. Her daughter fills her in on things blowing up for him at Chancellor-Winters.

Since he refused to out her, she wants to reward his loyalty.

Victoria admits he doesn’t have a lot of business experience, but she thinks he’s sharp and up for the challenge.

They have an excellent rapport. Besides, if he doesn’t take the offer, Sally still needs to go.

Nikki agrees to go along with this and is sure Victor will be glad to see Sally gone.

She doubts Nick will take it so well.

Victoria explains that he’s breaking the news to her.

 

Nikki is appalled when she explains that Nick and Sally have a relationship that is more than professional.

His mother wishes he would have thought twice given her history.

Victoria just hopes he’s carrying out the mission he volunteered for.

Her mom just hopes Sally is handling this gracefully. Victoria isn’t concerned.

The topic turns to the problem with Chelsea and Johnny.

Victoria explains he seems to be coming to terms with things.

He doesn’t want to see Chelsea and she can’t blame him because she feels the same.

Her mother thinks it’s a good idea not to force anything. Victoria is determined to make it clear to him that she’s his mother.

She still has to repair the damage Chelsea has done.

Nikki offers to help any way she can. They hug.

Nick brings Sally onto the Crimson Lights patio.

She expects the worse. He admits it’s difficult news. He fidgets until she prompts him to come out with it.

Nick reluctantly explains she and Chloe are being replaced. She needs a moment to digest this and then asks if this is coming from him or his sister.

Off the record, he admits it’s Victoria’s call. It would be pointless to speak to her about it. Sally isn’t stunned.

She’s been living on borrowed time.

Nick explains it’s almost impossible to change his sister’s mind and he tried many times.

“I fought like hell for you,” he says. That means a lot to her.

He feels terrible about this and is sure she’s disappointed.

She is but assures him she will be okay. She’s used to rolling with the punches and she’s proud of what she achieved.

No one can take that away from her. It kills her Chloe is being cut loose too.

Nick apologizes again and offers to do whatever he can to get her a new position.

She assures him he doesn’t owe her anything.

He knows this isn’t coming at a good time emotionally for her. Sally will handle that.

Nick stops by Newman and fills his mom in on firing Sally.

He assumes she’s on his sister’s side. She says they are all on the same team.

It was a bit abrupt but… she asks him about his relationship with Sally.

Nick doesn’t think that’s anyone’s business. His mom reminds him Sally isn’t just any woman.

She reminds him that people can control their actions, if not their feelings, and brings up how many people in his life detest Sally. She can’t understand why he and Adam keep going after the same woman.

Nick moves his head around and sighs.

He claims he’s not going to worry about what his half-brother thinks.

He’s concerned about Sally and Chloe. They’ve worked hard to prove their worth and deserve more. Nate has even less experience than they do so putting him in charge makes little sense.

Nikki knows he’s upset but Sally is a survivor and will land on her feet.
