The Young and the Restless spoilers document that Theo Vanderway’s (Tyler Johnson) time is short in Genoa City, Wisconsin, though he probably doesn’t know that. Y&R fans recently learned that Johnson has departed the cast.
That’s a shame because he’s a solid actor who portrayed a vulnerable and intriguing character that was tied to this soap’s earliest days.
With Theo’s imminent write-out fans are aware of final two angles. One involves his attempt to obtain some portion of Dina Mergeron’s (Marla Adams) estate. The other is linked to his feelings about Summer Newman (Hunter King) and his cousin, Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor).
Young And The Restless Spoilers – Dina Mergeron Was Loved
Theo developed a bond with the grandmother who he just recently became aware of. While Dina wasn’t fully aware of her faculties, it seems likely that she would have at least provided a modest amount of money to Theo because his father was her first-born son.
His grandfather was Stuart Brooks (Robert Colbert), who was one of the original Y&R characters in the 1970’s, when this soap debuted.
Brittany Hodges’ (Lauren Woodland) latest return to GC is intriguing, as another attorney could have handled Theo’s legal pursuit. So, fans should watch for other connected reasons why Brittany is back.
Young And The Restless Spoilers – Sally Spectra Playing Her Own Angle
Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) is on-board with helping Theo. She initially rejected his offer to pool their resources. But after being shot down by Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman) and Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and learning that Summer has been tapped to run Jabot Collective (JCV), Sally sees the need for an ally.
So, Theo will attempt to use his useful connection to Sally in order to learn how the Abbott’s react to his money play. Hope’s character should provide him with needed intel, but it still feels like his inheritance gamble is a longshot.
As for Theo’s usefulness, Sally will identify Summer as her competition. But the plan to undercut Summer’s ability to head JCV better be outstanding, as King’s character is well-connected and has earned this opportunity.
Young And The Restless Spoilers – Theo Vanderway’s Exit Possibilities
Might Theo fail in his attempt to gain any of Dina’s bounty? Will he give Sally the cut he’s promised if Brittany actually helps him to succeed.
The above questions contrast, as Theo’s defeat would mean that Sally gets nothing. That outcome would leave him alienated from the only family he knows, but seemingly hasn’t wanted to bond with.
But an unexpected, or unusual ending could be in the works, with Theo’s victory, or loss becoming a moot point. While he’s part of one of Y&R’s legacy clans, Theo could be forced to leave town simply because he alienated the Abbott’s.
