Victor and Nikki will celebrate

Victor’s big moment arrives

Spoiler alerts from Soap Dirt, Celebrating the Soaps, Celeb Dirty Laundry, and Soaps She Knows, all concur that Victor's upcoming anniversary bash will have intrigue, reunited lovers, passion, drama, and the police. The Newman patriarch will be celebrating 50 years at the business he started a half century earlier. As he is being honored, and basking in the glory of his accomplishments Victor's family members will be dealing with their various issues. As is most always the case a tragedy will take place that brings everything to grinding halt. Here is what to expect on the big day.

The past returns to Genoa City

Victor will get a few blasts from his past as Noah Newman will return home to celebrate his grandfather's career and also to be moral support for his mom, Sharon who is battling cancer. Traci Abbott will be back in Genoa City for the celebration, but there is no mention of Ashley wh was in town last week. Abby’s mother met with her ex husband and congratulated him during a private moment. This may indicate that she will not return for the 50 year celebration but you never know. Victor's ex wife Julia will be on hand as well as one of the daughter' of Stuart Brooks. It had been reported earlier by spoilers that Jamie Lyn Bauer decided not to put off a scheduled family vacation and was unable to return to The Young and the Restless. Perhaps something changed and she might show up and get to meet her nephew Theo while she is in town.

Romance is in the air

Kyle and Summer will attend the gala together as their first time officially being a couple. They will no doubt catch a lot of clack frim those who disagree but they can handle it, At the same time, sparks will fly between Nicholas and Phyllis who have been spending a lot of time together lately. Viewers have been complaining on social media about her lack of romance so perhaps she and Nick will hook up again. Both Summer and Phyllis are headed back into familiar territory but neither mother nor daughter can say anything to the other. Each of them headed back to men who broke their hearts. Kyle has been proclaiming his love for Lola but Nick probably is unsure of how he feels right now.

Tragedy strikes

It would not be a Newman gathering without tragedy striking and Paul riding in to save the day. This time Victoria will be the victim of not so random violence. She will be stabbed by Amanda’s psycho ex, Ripley, who was supposed to be leaving town. He ignored a restraining order and Rey locked him up. He saw Amanda once more and promised to leave town, but obviously decided to stick around.

It’s not clear how this man found out about the celebration, or how he gets into the invitation only gala but he obviously did his homework on Billy. Spoilers say Ripley is going to stab Victoria, allegedly in retaliation for Billy spending time with Amanda. Victor naturally is going to blame his former son in law for putting his daughter in danger by his actions. He will rip into Billy boy Abbott and no doubt demand he stay far away from Vicki. It’s possible Ripley may specifically target Victoria or she could simply be in the wrong place at the wrong time. There is no word yet on how serious Vicki’s injuries are going to be. It’s even possible Billy might have a change of heart about his baby mama. Victor however will be the final word on the decision.

Paul is back in action

Those who watch The Young and the Restless are expressing anger on social media because Doug Davidson is not being utilized since his return to the CBS daytime drama. During Victor’s celebration his character Paul Williams will be called in to bring law and order to the chaos. The police chief will probably apprehend Ripley and lock the psycho stalkerup in jail, where he belongs. Fans desire to see this beloved character do more than apprehend criminals then disappear but so far that’s all the writers are giving him to do.

Additional surprises?

There will no doubt be other surprises during the 50th anniversary of Newman Enterprises so be sure you stay tuned. In spite of the drama that will take place, spoilers say Niki will outdo herself in pulling off this grand event. The family matriarch has not been involved in a front burner storyline recently so this may be her night to shine, until Victoria is stabbed. Be on the lookout for spoilers to give more details as the big night approaches.
