The Young and the Restless - MESSAGE BOARDS

Sharon's admissions to Adam have been explored and A) Sharon isn't aware of ALL of Adam's evil doings; B) She let slip a bit too much - Adam was not aware of it being Nick who turned his father in; C) She was trying to be sensitive to Adam's situation and help him. But from the expression on her face she realized she let out too much. Done

Now moving on to Adam's admissions. He acknowledged everything he did was done out of revenge. He realizes it ended badly for everyone - especially himself (just as Jack an TGVN now do). His recollection of his father on the guerny and the strong possibility that he would die (remember the daydream sequence?) frightened him. He told Sharon if he lost Victor he would have no one and nothing in this life. Don't think he was faking that emotion and that very real possibility did shake him to his boots! Adam is undergoing an internal struggle that will have us seeing more of it in future episodes - I think.

Sharon's response to Adam fearing the loss of his father was very telling...she said "Yes it is a terrible thing to lose a parent." The look on her face was both sad and thoughtful. That expression and feeling of remorse opened a door...if you were listening. Neither of her parents have died. But her father did abandon her.This feeling of abandonment may be at the root of her problems and - just maybe - this is the first glimpse into her psych we have been waiting for.

This scene was very revealing for both Sharon and Adam. If you listened carefully (and watched their facial expressions) theis was more than a casual afternoon chat. The irony is that both of them felt comfortable enough to let their walls down...two most unlikely characters. They did for each other what a shrink has not been able to do. These two are not going to be romantically linked....JMO....but their comfort with each other will maybe result in self revelations that make them stronger.

Excellent observations Oreo! I salute you!!!

That was an extremely well thought out post. I too don't think they will be romantically involved but will connect on a profound level.

This is why I choose to keep watching. If you only read the updates you don't catch the subtle nuances of voice and facial expressions.

very good post, i just cannot see how adam can be redeemed because of the baby switch,and he is totally responsible for the death of ashley's baby

Very Interesting....

Still can't stand the guy but....very intersting

Nothing that Adam says matters unless he says, "Sharon your baby is alive and here she is" How Adam is able to listen to Sharon talk about losing 3 children and say nothing is beyond me. I guess a man that would do all that Adam has done clearly has no remorse. I see him as beyond redemption because he knows what he is doing but continues with his plan. That little talk he had with Faith about making things right and her "new" mommy was just sick.

Sharon's father is dead.
