The stunning alliance I hope The Young and the Restless' Cane forces to happen
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. After months of talking about The Young and the Restless' enigma known as Aristotle Dumas, viewers finally know that the mystery tycoon is none other than Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn). Although his full plans have yet to be revealed, I at the very least know that Cane is the person who has been rattling the cages around Genoa City for months. Now, with the recent revelation that Holden (Nathan Owens) has been buying up property around town near Jabot and Newman Enterprises for Cane, I have to believe Cane will soon launch a plan of attack on the companies. Especially in light of the fact that he's tricked all of his guests in France that they are stuck at his Nice home due to a recent storm. Having stated all of this, I can't help but think of Cane being this viable threat to the biggest power brokers in town. Although I still don't buy that Cane can go toe-to-toe with The Great Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), since writers are building Cane up as this worthy adversary of Victor, I'll go along with this new narrative. In the case that Cane is preparing an attack against Jabot and Newman Enterprises, in addition to his quest for Chancellor, I'm starting to believe some people should form an alliance in an effort to preserve the current status quo. Thinking along these lines, I came up with the perfect trio that would really keep me entertained. I'm talking about a partnership consisting of Victor, Jack (Peter Bergman) and Phyllis (Michelle Stafford). Before you blast this as a preposterous idea, let's really talk about this. Look, I know Jack and Victor are in the middle of a reignited feud and neither trusts the other, but even Victor would put his beef aside with his fiercest enemy if it meant saving Chancellor for Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) and his firstborn, Newman Enterprises. Additionally, Jack would do anything to save his father's legacy and has proven with his infamous hotel bender that he's willing to go to great lengths to protect Nikki. Then there's the whole Phyllis component of it all. Now she has bad blood with both Victor and Jack, so neither man has a reason to trust her. However, regardless of how people may feel about her, she is a savvy tech guru and has solid experience in the business world. She actually can be an asset for whoever she works for. While Phyllis wants her next boss to be Cane at this juncture, after her conversation with Sharon (Sharon Case), it's clear Phyllis is not completely oblivious to that there may be something sinister going on with him. So I'd like for her to partner with people who may prove to have a little more stability in Genoa City. Again, there is bad blood among the trio, but if Victor and Jack could let bygones be bygones for the greater good, then all three of them could do that. With that said, Diane (Susan Walters) may not be so forgiving, so if Phyllis were to partner with Jack and Victor, she may have to do so with a position working directly for Victor or working in a freelance capacity. Lastly, Philly working with Victor and Jack could finally place her in a new era. She's been stuck in a rut ever since she faked her death, and I think this alliance could finally focus Phyllis, which I've been quietly hoping for. Phyllis has been out of control for too long. Even if this wild fantasy alliance were to happen, it likely would fall apart at some point. However, it would be an interesting storyline in the interim and I believe Phyllis would come out of it with a hefty windfall, a top-level executive job or both. Oh, and Jack and Victor would probably maintain their family businesses. New episodes of The Young and the Restless air weekdays on CBS.

The Young and the Restless spoilers: Nick becomes the new Victor thanks to Cane?
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. And just like that on The Young and the Restless, suspicion for Damian's (Jermaine Rivers) murder is starting to shift a bit toward Nick (Joshua Morrow). Despite Cane (Billy Flynn) being the only one spotted with Damian's dead body and Cane having a pretty solid motive for wanting Damian dead, in the episode airing on July 16, Nick was stunned to find the murder weapon in his sleeping car on the train. As the episode picked up on July 17, Nick informed Chance (Conner Floyd) of the planted piece of evidence and pointed the finger at Cane for being behind the shady move. Even as Phyllis (Michelle Stafford), who was standing nearby, and Chance doubted that Cane went through the trouble of setting up Nick, the Newman heir was convinced that Cane or Cane's assistant, Carter (Vincent Stalba), is trying to frame him for a homicide. Furthermore, Nick points to all the secrecy behind Cane and Aristotle Dumas as proof that Cane may not be this innocent bystander. When Nick later passes along updates about all that's happened to Victor (Eric Braeden) and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott), the patriarch and matriarch of the Newman clan are stunned. Interestingly enough, though, Victor agrees Nick is being set up but doubts Cane is behind it. The Mustache can't buy that a man who was so careful to craft a new identity and plot against Genoa City power players in the last six years would be so reckless as to commit murder. Nick, however, maintains his theory, and carrying the momentum of outrage with him, he runs into Cane. Nick and Cane do a lot of posturing and hurl accusations at each other. But it's Nick's words that stood out to us most. He informed Cane, "I don't know what game you're playing, but trust me, you will lose. You came after the wrong guy and family. But from now on, you come at me man to man, you hear me?" As if those words from Nick weren't ominous already, he finishes off his rant telling Cane, "But trust me, you're gonna wish you were the one who was dead." With all that being said, we once speculated that although Victor continues to show he's as cunning as ever, that one of his children would start to really emerge as his true successor in ruthlessness and chaos. While we suggested there was a good chance this person could be Adam (Mark Grossman), we ultimately settled on Victoria (Amelia Heinle). We suspected that in the wake of Cole's (J. Eddie Peck) death, something would unlock inside of her that made it clear who her father is. Now we bypassed Nick in the discussion, largely because he's traditionally spent his time in Genoa City being the 'good guy,' trying to do whatever he could to prove he was a more upstanding guy than his father. Plus, Nick has a hot temper, which doesn't necessarily bode well if you're trying to be a masterful tactician like the Newman Enterprises founder. However, is Nick about to prove us wrong? Is he about to show everyone, especially Cane, that a "new Victor" is waiting in the wings? We have to say, Nick's final words for Cane in the episode from July 17 certainly sent chills down our spines, as they could have come out of Victor's mouth years ago in his feuding with Jack (Peter Bergman), Ian (Ray Wise), Ashland Locke (Robert Newman) and the list goes on. Additionally, with Victor and Nick closer than ever these days, it's not hard to imagine Victor providing some close guidance to his son to help him keep his temper in check and to methodically think through a mental game of chess with Cane. On a final note, we have a hunch that both Nick and Cane will find themselves cleared of murder charges eventually, and that their real showdown could be in Genoa City as they take their battle to the corporate world.

The Young and the Restless spoilers: Victor goes low to make Cane pay for holding Nick and Sharon hostage?
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Over the years, The Young and the Restless' Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) has proven he's the one person in Genoa City you never want to cross. Coming after his family or businesses is always a mistake because he has a long memory, he is a masterful tactician and he makes getting revenge look like a highly skilled art. With that being said, Cane (Billy Flynn) should be worried on some level. Not only has Cane been keeping Victor, Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott), Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon (Sharon Case) cut off from the outside world at his French estate, but thanks to Adam (Mark Grossman), Victor knows Cane is making mysterious moves in Genoa City that could impact Newman Enterprises and Chancellor. All of this is offensive enough to The Mustache, but Cane now holding Nick and Sharon hostage in some kind of storage room while accusing Nick of murdering Damian (Jermaine Rivers) has fully infuriated Victor. Oh, and can you imagine how Victor will grow even more enraged when he learns that while Cane has been playing his games, Victoria (Amelia Heinle) and Claire (Hayley Erin) have been back home without their support system in the wake of Cole's (J. Eddie Peck) death. Cane better buckle in, because we can picture that sooner or later, Victor is about to make humbling Cane his number one priority, which should be good news for Jack (Peter Bergman), who has grown tired of his reignited feud with Victor. Should we be correct with our hunch, then we have to think about what Victor may wind up doing. If we had to guess, Victor might take things to a personal level since Cane has gone after his family. This is where things could get tricky and interesting at the same time. Cane went after Nick, but Victor probably won't go after Cane's twins, Mattie and Charlie, in a similar manner because of Lily (Christel Khalil) and Neil (Kristoff St. John). Neil was Victor's best friend, and despite crossing Lily over Chancellor, Victor still respects his best friend's daughter. So he wouldn't want to harm Neil's grandchildren. However, Cane has already suggested that Mattie and Charlie don't know about his secret Aristotle Dumas identity. Even when news breaks of Cane's secret persona, we can imagine Victor using Newman Media to help craft a negative image of Cane as a swindler and criminal, with the hopes of painting him in a bad light with the entire globe, especially Mattie and Charlie. Victor may want to do everything in his power to ensure Cane's two children want nothing to do with him. And this again is just the twins. As longtime viewers of The Young and the Restless know, Cane also has a younger son named Sam. Now Sam hasn't been brought up in a while; however, to our knowledge, he's around somewhere in the fictional soap world. Is it possible that the Newman patriarch will take a more direct approach in turning Sam against Cane, given Sam has no ties to Neil? Heck, will Victor even hope to weaponize Sam against Cane in some form or fashion? Lastly, we can't shake the possibility that Colin (Tristan Rogers) is very much alive and well, despite what Cane has alleged. If he is, and Victor learns of this, you better believe Victor would seek him out and drag the truth out of Colin about what he and Cane have really gotten themselves into and how they acquired their wealth. All in all, we're kind of excited to see Victor have another opponent on the scene to level. As much as his revived feud with Jack was fun to watch at first, that rivalry has lost its gusto as it seems to be one-sided. Jack is not interested in going toe-to-toe with Victor these days.

A Young and the Restless Newman Takeover After June 16
Victor, Nikki, and Nick are all off to meet the mysterious Aristotle Dumas on the June 16 episode of The Young and the Restless. Along with Sharon, Sally, and Billy, they're all playing a lively guessing game of Who Is Dumas? Which means they've taken their eyes off the prize? And what's the prize? Why, Newman Enterprises, of course… and who was left at home to watch the store? We all know that Victor (Eric Braeden) calls Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) 'my baby.' (Which is patronizing and condescending and, if we do say so ourselves… creepy.) But we — and she — know who Victor's real baby is. It's the company he built from the ground up with no help from anyone and without ever doing a bad or illegal thing ever: Newman Enterprises. Victor cares more about it than he does about his precious family, no matter how much he might insist to the contrary. That's why he keeps hiring and firing his children and other relatives from it. Nobody is quite good enough to run it — not the way Victor wants it run. MORE: Find out what happened on Y&R today. Victor is only going to France with Nikki and Nick (Joshua Morrow) because he wants to make sure Dumas doesn't do anything silly, like give Billy (Jason Thompson), Sally (Courtney Hope) or Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) the means by which they might put a chink in Newman Enterprises' armor. He left Adam (Mark Grossman) in charge, confident that his younger son would never do anything that might make his daddy love him less (especially since Victor has already made it clear in countless way to Adam that he loves him less than Victoria [Amelia Heinle] and Nick. Abby [Melissa Ordway] doesn't count.) READ MORE: Here's what happens next on Y&R. Except Victor didn't count on Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) making sad faces at Adam about following Victor's orders and going after Billy. Adam will do anything Chelsea says. He told her he'll deal with Victor. Could that be stealing his entire company out from under Victor while he's away? What will Victor do without his 'baby' then?
