The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers for Friday, August 18, tease that Victoria (Amelia Heinle) will have a brief glimmer of hope. When Neil (Kristoff St. John) sees that Victoria’s upset, he’ll wonder what’s the matter. After Victoria explains her tricky situation, Neil will agree to provide the bridge loan. He’ll just want to make sure Victoria revives the Dare campaign and keeps Lily employed.
Victoria will think that sounds like a perfectly acceptable condition. She’ll feel like Neil is a real lifesaver! Meanwhile, Reed (Tristan Lake Leabu) and Mattie (Lexie Stevenson) will struggle to figure things out. Their feuding families are becoming a real problem. Mattie will seem uncertain about carrying on this romance, but she’ll have a change of heart a little later.
The Young and the Restless spoilers say Mattie will find Neil meeting with Victoria on Friday. She’ll determine that they’re leaving her out of the loop on something. Mattie will track down Reed and suggest that they can be sneaky about dating. She’ll think it’s obvious that their families don’t mind secrets.
Elsewhere, Dina (Marla Adams) will fib about making her own changes to the budget report. She’ll also hint that it’d be nice for Jack (Peter Bergman) and Billy (Jason Thompson) to make peace. Jack will continue to rage over Billy’s actions, but Dina won’t think his brother is so bad.
Other Y&R spoilers state that Phyllis (Gina Tognoni) will get updates from Ben Hochman (Ben Hermes). She’ll learn that he considered taking inside info from Cane (Daniel Goddard), but Victoria found out and blew her top. After their meeting, Phyllis will tell Jack that she’s off the team. She won’t stand by and let them bring down Billy.
At the television studio, Mariah (Camryn Grimes) will try to get to the bottom of Hilary’s (Mishael Morgan) latest story. Hilary will refuse to divulge any details until they hit the air. Later, she’ll tease an exclusive scoop on Victoria Newman’s meltdown. She’ll also mention Ben Hochman’s involvement, which will catch Ben by surprise.
After watching the announcement on TV, Ben will tell Cane that he doesn’t need his help anymore. As the segment begins, Cane will send a text urging Victoria and Billy to watch The Hilary Hour. They’ll be horrified when they turn it on and see Hilary broadcasting the recent confrontation.
Ashley (Eileen Davidson), Jack and Phyllis will all catch the story as well. Hilary has really outdone herself this time! Across town, Lily and Jordan (Darnell Kirkwood) will share some close moments. After Jordan opens up about his relationship issues, Lily will suggest that he needs to find someone better than Hilary.
Jordan will contend that he’s already found a woman he wants, but he’s not sure he can be with her. He’ll give Lily a kiss, so she’s definitely going to have some mixed feelings in the coming episodes. We’ll keep you posted as other Young and the Restless news comes in.
