The Young And The Restless Spoilers – A Dreaded Phone Call Came

In the gripping episode that aired on Tuesday, January 7, Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) received a chilling call from the police, revealing Sharon’s car had been discovered submerged in the river.

This was  the same haunting location where Heather Stevens’ (Vail Bloom) lifeless form was previously found-a wave of dread washed over Nick as he braced himself for the worst.

However, fans are aware that, contrary to Ian Ward’s (Ray Wise) orders, Jordan (Colleen Zenk) has made the choice to keep Sharon alive.

Y&R head writer Josh Griffith has teased that Sharon and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) will soon find themselves in a perilous predicament, prompting both to reassess their relationship.

It seems Phyllis won’t be far behind Sharon, and she’s in for a shocking revelation when she uncovers the true mastermind behind these events.

Summer Newman (Allison Lanier) brought her mother up to speed on Sharon’s disappearance during Tuesday’s episode;  Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) was also present, and both expressed their worries about Sharon.

Meanwhile, Phyllis dismissed the entire situation with a wave of her hand. Although she’s striving to move on and avoid dwelling on the uncontrollable, Y&R fans can sense her simmering desire for revenge against Sharon.

It was so apparent that even Billy probed Phyllis, questioning whether she had any knowledge of Sharon’s fate, subtly suggesting she might be involved.

Ian is eager to blame Phyllis for Sharon’s demise, but what if Jordan surprises everyone with a shocking twist by kidnapping Nick’s other ex-wife?

The two women could find themselves ensnared in that grimy sewer, battling for their survival-they would have no choice but to join forces.

Phyllis might be utterly taken aback when she regains consciousness to discover Sharon shackled in the damp darkness.

While she has always perceived Sharon as a delicate figure in need of Nick’s constant rescue, witnessing the trials Sharon has faced could shift Phyllis’s perspective, earning her newfound respect.

There could even be a moment when Sharon manages to push back against their captor, potentially impressing Phyllis further.

However, with Jordan likely holding the advantage over both, Sharon’s chances of escape may dwindle; plus, without her bipolar medication, the shadows of her mind could begin to distort her reality.
