The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers tease that Chelsea Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) isn’t done with Adam Newman (Mark Grossman). She certainly has days when she’s outraged with her ex, but it never takes her long to soften. Despite their recent conflict, Chelsea still sees the good in Adam on August 27. She also hands over a gift that could affect both of them a great deal.
Y&R fans know Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) has been struggling to get a grip lately. He’s been haunted by memories of Delia Abbott (Sophie Pollono) and his brain is twisting things around. Billy is convinced that Delia wants him to stop Adam. He believes his daughter will never be free if he doesn’t, so stopping Adam is exactly what he intends to do.
Of course, Billy doesn’t know he’s developed an alternate personality – the gum chewer we’re seeing more and more frequently. After Chelsea gives back a handkerchief belonging to Adam’s late mother, Hope Wilson (Beth Toussaint), Billy’s alter will steal it. He’ll realize he has to hit Adam where he’s vulnerable, so he’ll want to use Adam’s love for Hope against him somehow.
We also know a big showdown is brewing between Billy and Adam, which will bring the arrival of a shocking guest. It’s possible Y&R will do some sort of Hope haunting here, but Billy’s the crazy one, not Adam. That’s not something Billy could really set in motion anyway.
Plus, The Young and the Restless really needs to hit Adam where he’s vulnerable in this moment, not through some distant memory of the past. What makes Adam vulnerable right now? The answer is his sons – particularly Connor Newman (Judah Mackey) since Adam already shares a bond with him and has given up on Christian Newman (Alex Wilson).
We’re not saying Billy would intentionally harm Connor, although he could since this is an alternate personality. However, it’s possible Connor will be the surprise guest at this showdown, which could put him in grave danger – the kind of danger that might bring his parents together.
Whether Connor actually gets hurt or not, Chelsea and Adam could bond over the scary ordeal. It’s doubtful Chelsea would blame Adam for Billy coming unhinged, especially since what happened to Delia was an accident. This could bring more opportunities for Adam and Chelsea to reconnect.
A “Chadam” reunion seems inevitable and this would be the perfect way to hurt Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow). Adam plans to take all the Newmans down, so breaking Nick’s heart would be a good first step. That might not be Adam’s main goal of reuniting with Chelsea, but it’d be a nice bonus.
Will some Connor danger push Adam and Chelsea back together? Will Nick be the loser in love? The Young and the Restless spoilers say some hot drama’s ahead!
