Those who watch THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS are debating what is really going on between Jack Abbott and Sally Spectra. As the date for Kyle to exit Genoa City draws near there are three basic theories. The first is that Jack will succumb to Ms. Spectra's wiles end up in bed with her and be hurt when the truth comes out. The second one is that he will fall hard for Sally but before they get serious she will be exposed for running Summer out of town. No one believes that Jack and Sally will have a happily ever after.

A third scenario is that Jack has been suspecting the redhead of being up to no good all along and is setting a trap for her. Viewers disagree on which one of these possiblities is taking place but most believe Jack does care about Sally. Skyle fans have been distraught ever since they found out that their favorite couple will no longer be a part of the Genoa City action. Michael Mealor went public a few weeks ago and admitted t0o hsi fans that he was leaving THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS. Hunter King, however, has remained silent regarding her exit.

Jack Abbott is a legacy character who THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS and his fans are concerned regarding this limbo he seems to be in at the present time. He has not had a love interest in a number of years and there is no action going on at Jabot. Kerry basically made a fool of him when she was helping Ashley gaslight Jack in a matter of speaking. When Judi8th Chapman returned as Gloria Bardwell some viewers believed she would go back to being the receptionist at Jabot and perhaps she had her former stepson would hook up again.

Gloria was hired by Lauren but has not been seen in a while and the Jabot front desk is never shown anymore. THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS viewers are wondering what the fate of the Abbott company will be once Kyle leaves town and how this along with Sally and Tara's exposure will affect Jack. Along with Kyle, his father will receive a double whammy and possibly a triple one. Jack must deal with Kyle's departure along with whatever revelations comes out regarding Harrison.

If the little boy is not an Abbott this will be devastating to his grandfather who loves him. Jack is going to have to accept that he was dupped again by younger women as Tara and Sally have pulled the wool over his eyes just as Kerry once did. The current CEO of Jabot could lose his son, grandson, and the woman he cares about all at the same time. He must also come to grips with the fact that he welcomed Tara into his home and she was playing him.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS viewers are wondering why Victor Newman has retired and seems to be enjoying life with Nikki, a new relationship with Adam, and also has his grandchildren nearby? In contrast, Jack might end up alone in the huge Abbott mansion. Fans desire to see so much more for this beloved character but it's not looking good for him at all.

There is no woman in Genoa City right now for Jack to fall in love with and marry which would give him comfort when Kyle leaves town. It's not likely that Beth Maitland or Eileen Davidson will return full time to THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS so Ashley and Tracy will continue to pop in every now and then. Fans are discussing how they do not want to see Jack alone in his home or at Jabot but it looks like the writers are going to take him there.

At one point Kristen Alphonso he portrayed Hope Brady on DAYS OF OUR LIVES was rumored to be joining the cast of THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS. Some viewers thought she might become a suitable love interest for Jack. Soap vet Eva Larue came to Genoa City as the mother of the Rosales clan and fans believed she might be a romantic interest for Jack but she did not stick around. Jack Abbott is too valuable a character to simply remain in this limbo long term.

When, however, you consider the way the powers that be treated, Doug Davidson after 4 decades on the show, anything is possible so stay tuned. Will Jack and Sally work through all the drama or will the truth cause him to kick her to the curb? Is the current Abbott patriarch falling hard for the redhead or running a scam of his own? Somewhere within the next few weeks these questions will indeed be answered.
