Shocking News for Michael!

Thursday, June 26 2008
Michael hires Paul and gets some shocking results, Nikki gives David the cold shoulder, Neil grills Tyra!


At the Abbott Mansion, Gloria encounters Sharon who is overseeing the renovations. She asks for a small statue that Sharon is planning to get rid of. Jack comes downstairs and has a moment's hesitation over the renovation. He assures Sharon that he'll get over it.



David arrives at Jabot and assures Nikki that he is going to do everything he can to be the man who she married. Nikki, however, treats him curtly and excuses herself. They all meet up in the conference room, and it comes to light that David didn't complete the expected work. Nikki doesn't back him up. After he leaves, Jill asks Nikki if there is a problem between the two of them. Nikki denies anything is wrong, then gives Gloria grief when she comes in late. Jill comes out and lays into Gloria as well, threatening to fire her if she makes the slightest mistake. Gloria smiles, and once alone, says, "You may have the power, but I've got the guy!"



Neil turns up at Lily's place and asks if Tyra and Ana got to the hotel okay last night. She says they did, and that Devon is gone to pick them up. Neil says he is wondering why suddenly, out of nowhere, they have dropped in on his kid! Lily questions him and he says he's just being cautious. Just then, Devon comes in with Tyra and Ana. Lily and Ana go to the kitchen and Neil asks Tyra how long they are planning on staying. Tyra says long enough to spend some time with Devon. When she leaves the room, Neil asks Devon if Tyra ever visited him when he was in the group home. Devon becomes defensive, and when Tyra comes back into the room, Neil tells her he will take her and Ana for breakfast - he wants to get to know her better! After they leave, Lily and Devon discuss how Neil thinks Tyra is like his mother. Devon says you can see that Tyra has her head on straight. Devon tells her he has a picnic planned with Tyra and Ana and he wants to videotape his little cousin singing. Lily smiles, "You're happy that they're here aren't you?"



At Restless Style, Phyllis informs Nick that they had way too many unsold copies of the last issue of the magazine. He says coming up with a new marketing plan will be easy - convincing their partners to go along with it will be the hard part! Amber comes in wearing an "Amber Original", Phyllis's eyebrows go up. She tells Amber that she got an email from Daniel - he's in Barcelona having a great time. Amber says she got a static-y voice mail from him too. Jack and Sharon arrive and a brief disagreement ensues about the future direction of the magazine, before Jack leaves to take a meeting. Sharon sits down beside Phyllis and notes that she agrees with everything that Nick says! Phyllis counters that Sharon agrees with everything that Jack says! Sharon says Phyllis and Nick are too geared toward the younger crowd and Phyllis says Sharon and Jack are too focused on the older crowd! Nick comes back into the room and asks Sharon what she is sending Noah at camp. Suddenly, Sharon comes up with an idea inspired by one of the magazines she buys for Noah - and animated spokesmodel on the ezine that will promote the magazine! Nick likes the idea and Phyllis says it has potential! As they wonder who to use as the spokesmodel, Amber cries out, "Katy Perry just sent me an autographed CD!" They all turn and look at her. "Amber!" Phyllis tells Nick and Sharon that they are crazy to consider her! Sharon accuses Phyllis of being against Amber because she is living with her son. Phyllis denies it. Nick and Sharon outvote Phyllis, who says that she will be talking to Jack!



At the Club, Lauren asks a yawning Michael what time he finally came to bed. He sighs and admits that he was up reading his grandmother's diary again. He declares that he is ready to start looking for his father. Lauren warns that it will be difficult emotionally. Michael tells her that he is hiring Paul to help, and keeping it a secret from Gloria! Paul arrives and Michael tells him that the trail runs cold after Lowell got arrested in Michigan. David wanders into the dining room and Paul intercepts him, warning David that he has his eye on him and he will be looking out for Nikki!



In her office, Nikki sits with tears in her eyes, thinking about the situation with David. Gloria comes in with a tea for her. She scoffs at the way Jill treats everyone, and tells Nikki to let her know if there is any way she can help. When Glo returns to her desk, Jack wanders in. "Well, well. Looks like Jabot hired a new receptionist!" Gloria lies that she is just filling in, but soon admits the truth and gets him a coffee! Nikki meets Jack in the conference room and he notes that being there brings back a lot of memories. Jill comes in and Jack says it's nice that she is honoring his father's legacy by hiring Gloria! Jill suggests that he offer her a job. Jack sits down and looks around the room. He fantasizes that he is at the helm of Jabot once again! Suddenly, Nikki and Jill interrupt his reverie. After Jack has left, Gloria takes a call from David looking for Nikki. Gloria remains on the line as David tells Nikki that he has a meeting that afternoon, and Nikki says he should move the meeting to Jabot because she doesn't trust him anymore!



At Indigo, breakfast is finished, and Neil sends Ana off to the kitchen so he can talk to Tyra. Neil asks if she has had contact with Yolanda recently. Tyra tells Neil that she stayed with them for awhile, but started using again and had to leave. She asks Neil if he is wondering if she is like her sister. Neil says he's just concerned about Devon. Tyra says becoming a mother changed her - she has held the same job for the past 10 years and takes good care of Ana. Neil is impressed. When Ana returns, she asks if she can play the piano. They listen as she plays some music, and Tyra tells him, "That's my world, that's what I care about." Neil nods. Lily and Devon wander in. Neil tells Lily he feels better about Tyra after speaking with her, but admits he still isn't sure if he trusts her. Lily warns that if he acts suspicious of Devon's relatives it may make Devon think that no one in his birth family is any good! Neil marvels at the wisdom of his 21 year old daughter!



Jack returns to Restless Style with a signed contract from Jabot. They fill him in on the idea about Amber being a spokesmodel, and Jack thinks it's a fabulous idea! Nick speaks to Phyllis alone and tells her it's not a big deal. She tells him he should have backed her in a situation like this. He says he knows Sharon rubs her the wrong way, as does Amber, and if it were anything other than business, he would have sided with her! Nearby, Jack admits to Sharon that he really misses Jabot.



In the Club dining room, Paul watches David heading upstairs, before he joins Lauren and Michael at a table. He tells them a search of the State data base turned up a man by the name of River Baldwin. Michael is skeptical, but Paul tells Michael that he was born in New Orleans, just like Lowell, and that they share the same social security number! Lauren says, "So River is Michael's father?!" Paul clears his throat and tells them there is bad news. "River Baldwin is wanted for murder!"



Next on The Young and the Restless:

Adrian tells Nick and Jack that Sabrina has gone from nobody to somebody in the art world at warp speed! Nick asks, "Did you find anything interesting?"

As Lily and Cane embrace, Chloe says, "Lily in L.A. and you here. Such a shame!"

Michael confronts Gloria about not telling him that his 'dear old dad' had been arrested for murder, and that she had bailed him out!

Posted by Antionnette at Thursday June 26 2008 2:55am I really hope that is not true about what everyone is saying on here about Devon aunt might try to abandon her daughter on neil I hope it is the other part that she could be maybe running away from a guy that maybe abuse her. And I Think Lily is just to nice and naive to chloe and a bit to trusting of her she should not consider her her friend But I know if Dru was still on here should would have been put chloe in check but Lily is not like her mother she can only be herself and she did not even act like she was still mad at chloe for kissing cane.But when she took her back to her place cause she claim she have left something there she should have just told her to get her stuff and leave and instead of letting her stay at her party.

Lily is still somewhat naive as far as Chloe is concerned, especially with her constant, snide comments on a daily basis. Colleen is really on to Chloe.

Nikki is really being cautious and who can blame her. Neil is cautious also where Tyra is concerned. She just dropped out of the "blue".

What has Adrian found out about Sabrina, if anything? He's a good digger.

Let's see what happens on the next episode and get rid of Chole.

I'm posting 6/26/08 at 7:15AM Eastern time.

Oh, boy, it sounds as though Jack will be snorting around Jabot to see what's going on because he misses it. Nikki is extremely vulnerable right now, even though she's always vulnerable because she's not a good business woman, and with Jack listening and watching, she had better get it togther in a hurry. Although I like Jack and think he's great in business, he is a vulture and doesn't take any prisoners.

antionnette - You mentioned earlier about Lily not even acting as though she were mad at Chloe for her behavior. I noticed that too along with the fact that nobody ever seems to mind for more than a couple days when their spouse or boyfriend/girlfriend sleeps with somebody else. The somebody else often ends being the best friend. A case in point is the nonsense with Jack/Sharon/Nick/Phyllis - I would never in a million years want to get all comfy-cozy with the person who caused me such pain much less go into business with them. Gees!!

Phyllis is so annoying....the 4 of them went into business as equal if every one automatically backed their spouses every time then nothing would get down just like with the first issue of the magazine. She needs to grow up. In fact they all do. Take a victor stance business is business.

Lily...wtf...you couldnt bring it to Chloe yourself. Fine even if you felt bad for her i would still have said no way in hell are you forgiven and we're not frends. You can leave after the cake....but hey thats just me.

Chloe...you schemed your way into the party but then you looked mad the whole time. Your lucky someone didnt throw you out like they should have.

I love Anna, she calls it like she sees it, reminds me of Dru....my guess is Tyra is running from someone. Why else do you leave the place your managing and go somewhere with no cash.

Posted by da_kid at Thursday, June 26 2008 05:21 AM

Isn't it interesting that no one even mentioned Victor and Sabrina in the posts today. That's a definite indication that most viewers feel just like I do, nauseated. I always fast forward through their scenes.

me too

I can see this show taking a turn for the better with Michael finding his father. You know Michael will have to defend him and get him out of that murder charge.

Jack missing Jabot. He will get his father's company back as soon as Jill discovers what Gloria are hiding and she will discover it. The writers know the fans have grown 0 tolerance for this not coming to a conclusion. Katherine will sell Jack his company back and he can get rid of all the Newmans that have infiltrated the place. I see them heading over to Restless Style. I'm sure Phyllis will love having mommie-in-law dearest and sister-in-law influencing Nick. She think she doesn't have a voice now wait until they come.

Cane has such a heart of gold. He and Lily make a great couple. Chloe is going to do something dangerous I can feel it coming. She may try to do something to Cane rather Lily. You know how that psycho-love can get.

Amber as a spokesperson with her whinney, high-pitch voice. Terrible choice and Phyllis was the only one that could see that. Come writers - they could have had Colleen over Amber. Heck they could have chosen little Ana over Amber.

Much ado about the Abbott's bric a brac these days - Ashley and the 'tacky' glass bowl? And Gloria's now in love with the head statue atop the mantle? (that Jack pretends he'd miss if it were gone) ... All this - and the Newman's big blue plate - a fixture for a quarter of a century never, ever gets honorable mention ... David vows to be the man Nikki married? What? A lying gambler? Why hasn't Paul discovered that David's name is Clark? And if David wanted time apart from Nikki - why bother to come back? Why didn't he just go to Vegas? ... Much mention today about 'the' fashion blog' - what fashion blog? - surely, there must be gazillions ... How did Nikki sleep? Not very well I expect - walking over broken glass on the floor likely hurt her feet - she does know Gina will charge her for that tiny bottle, right? ... Why didn't anyone at RS suggest tying in print and webzine advertising - IE - ads must be run in both. Since the webzine's such a big hit, it should be an easy sell .. Hsow are there unsold copies? I thought it sold out in all the critical newsstand locations? ... Now that Mike's actively looking for his father, how exactly is Lauren 'in'? She's not even staying up all hours to keep him company as he reads ... Mike now trusts Paul and thinks him a good detective? What a turn around .... Amber does look very 'anime' today - with her pigtails and fashion forward attire - like one of those chicks in Pokemon. How come Jamie, the fashion publishing guru didn't come up with all these ideas? And why didn't Jack suggest Jabot cosmetics as prizes? Surely, Nikki would love that idea ... True - Devon's Aunt wasn't there during all his strife and turmoil - but Neil's family haven't exactly been there for him either, have they? ... Even if Jill WAS the boss of Nikki (as she so clearly thinks she is) - it still wouldn't be any of her business if something was going on between Nikki and David - and if David balks at confiding in his 'buddy', Paul, it's even less likely that Nikki would choose Jill as a confidante .... Maybe Paul can have his Detroit contact check and see what's in the safety deposit box - remember? - the one Tom left Kevin the key to (but he couldn't scrounge up the funds to get there to check the contents) ... The way Gloria's being reprimanded for being late, you'd think everyone else was punching a time clock at 07:00 sharp every morning - when in reality, everyone pretty much shows up when and if they want to .... Gloria mutters smugly 'I got the guy' like Jeff's some sort of prize - has she forgotten he stole 50 million off her - and didn't blink at the thought of leaving her penniless? ... Shouldn't the Restless Style demographic have been identified and targeted from the get go? And while it seems obvious that they should be targeting somewhere in the middle, isn't it obvious that the younger audience is the one making the webzine successful? Ladies in grandma pearls and cashmere are less likely to be online I s'pose ... I still can't get over folks going to a jazz nightclub for breakfast - and did I hear Neil call Indigo's head chef 'fat'? Is a 'chef' really necessary for frying eggs and bacon? And does Neil really want a kid Anna's age running around with pitchers of orange juice? .. So - Tyra worked her way up the hotel industry? And started by what? Renting rooms? By the hour? ... Lily goes for waffles only to discover Devon ate the last of em without bothering to mention it? Dontcha just hate when that happens? ... How absurd that Gloria would be oh so concerned about the way Jill's treating poor woe-is-me Nikki - especially in light of the way Jill's treating HER .. and Nikki isn't exactly treating Gloria like employee of the month) .... Thank heavens there was no nauseating sexual innuendo included with Gloria's stamp licking ... Nick wants to talk about something Sharon and Phyllis agree on? Like what? How hot he is? .... All Phyllis can think of to contribute to Noah's care package is her contraband bubble gum? Either she's a very uncaring step Mom - OR she knows that the kid only just left - and Jack already bought him everything under the sun a kid at camp might need - and then some ... Whining that there are no 'real' Abbott's at Jabot, Jack now thinks of going back? Like there's a top level position available for him? Didn't Kay forbid him from working there - to prevent the widower Gibson from filing a lawsuit against them? Surprising that Nikki's using Jack's old desk - does she wonder about the sweat marks and deep finger nail scratches across the top? Neil should know better than to base his opinion of Tyra on Yolanda - after all, he's nothing like HIS brother - and Dru was nothing like Olivia.

ohioan123 - In watching the four of them floundering around trying to play at a business which none of them knows much about, often times Phyllis is the only one with her head on straight and makes sense. That's just about all they would need is Victoria whineing around and Nikki trying to pretend she knows what she's doing. Then Brad can come in and try to take over and start another power struggle with Jack. David can take bets on their survival.
