The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers recap for Wednesday, January 26, reveals that Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) will call himself “Daddy” in front of Chance Chancellor (Conner Floyd) – and Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) will warn Victoria Newman-Locke (Amelia Heinle) about her untrustworthy father. Here’s what Y&R viewers can look forward to in Wednesday’s drama-filled show.
At Crimson Lights, Billy will suspect Victoria isn’t letting go of her plan to scoop up Newman Media.
Victoria will act like Billy is jealous of her potential triumph over Adam Newman (Mark Grossman), but Billy will insist he’s genuinely concerned.
Billy won’t want Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) to suck Victoria back in and will warn her to walk away while she still can.
Meanwhile, Adam will demand to know what the possible sale of Newman Media to Victoria means for him. Victor will feel certain Victoria’s willing to keep Adam on as CEO.
Adam will grow increasingly frustrated since they worked so hard to keep Newman Media independent.
Adam will feel like Victor is sending him a message of disapproval, so Victor will admit he was disappointed in Adam over the Billy debacle.
That said, Victor will argue that this is about business and what’s best for the company.
Victor will keep things cryptic when it comes to what else he might have up his sleeve and suggest Adam will find out when he wants him to know.
In Victoria’s office, she’ll talk to Ashland about her Billy run-in and speculate on Victor’s ulterior motive for changing his mind.
Ashland will wonder if maybe Victor is trying to keep Adam in line with this offer, but Victoria will think there has to be something else going on.
At Newman Media, Noah Newman (Rory Gibson) will stop by to explain to Adam in person why he chose to work for New Hope.
This will be the first time Adam’s hearing about it, but he’ll admit to having some communication issues with Victor lately.
Afterward, Sally will bring Adam up to speed on Chloe Mitchell (Elizabeth Hendrickson) and Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) signing the deal for their new lease.
Sally will get Adam to admit he’s going to miss her unexpected pop-ins, but he’ll refuse to cancel the lease if this will help Chelsea move on.
Adam will have bigger things on his mind anyway, so Sally will pressure him for updates on Victor.
After Adam swears Sally to secrecy, he’ll admit Victor is thinking of selling Newman Media to Victoria.
Sally will complain since Adam gave Victor his loyalty and will wonder how Adam intends to handle this.
Adam will admit he’s not sure and won’t know if he’s willing to report to his sister. He’ll mention how Victor views it as a test, so Sally will think Adam should go for it.
Sally will argue that Victoria will eventually fall out of favor with Victor – leaving Adam in the prime position to pick up the gauntlet.
Adam still won’t be certain of his plans, but he’ll thank Sally for being in his corner.
Back at Newman-Locke, Nikki will find out about Adam potentially coming on board there.
Nikki will have concerns, but she’ll think she can learn to live with it – that is if Adam makes an attitude adjustment.
Victoria will agree that Adam indeed needs to adjust his attitude. She’ll make it clear that she doesn’t intend to let her guard down around her brother.
At the Chancellor mansion, Abby will sweetly tell Dominic Newman-Abbott-Winters-Chancellor (Rainn and River Ware) that Devon wants to spend more time with him.
Abby will talk about how this will be a good thing as a sad Chance eavesdrops nearby.
Next, Chance will admit to Abby that he had a couple nightmares last night. Now that Chance isn’t trying to push down his trauma, he’ll think it’s like the floodgates are opening.
Christine Williams (Lauralee Bell) will also show up to let Abby and Chance look over the new agreement.
Chance and Abby will confirm they aren’t having second thoughts before Christine mentions Devon had another request.
Since Devon will want his first overnight visit right away, Abby will decide they might as well get used to their new normal.
Abby will seem glum as she goes to pack up Dom’s things.
At Devon’s penthouse, he’ll fill Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) in on the good news about shared custody and Dominic gaining the Winters name.
Devon will also thank Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan) for all her support, so she’ll look forward to going on this adventure with him.
Once Lily joins Billy at Chancellor Industries, they’ll talk about Victoria not listening to Billy’s advice.
Lily will also tell Billy about Chance and Abby’s shared custody decision, so Billy and Lily will agree that must’ve been tough for them.
At the coffeehouse, Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) will inform Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) about the shared custody agreement she heard about offscreen.
Although Mariah will admit to feeling some pangs of jealousy, she’ll try to focus on all the love that’ll be surrounding Dominic.
After Tessa buys Mariah a brownie as a little boost, they’ll discuss wedding plans – though they’ll have to wait until after Tessa’s publicity meeting for her album release.
Mariah will have no problem delaying this conversation until tonight.
Back at the Chancellor mansion, Devon and Amanda will arrive to pick Dominic up.
They’ll offer to video-chat with Abby and Chance while Dom is staying at the penthouse, so Abby will insist they’d love that.
Abby will explain all the stuff she packed up for Dominic, including his favorite toy that he likes to sleep with.
Abby will try to hide how upset she is as she hands Dominic over, but Devon will be thrilled.
After Devon tells Dominic that he’s missed him, he’ll ask if Dominic’s ready to go hang out at “Daddy’s” tonight – right there in front of Chance!
Once Amanda and Devon leave with Dominic, Chance will hug a distraught Abby.
The Young and the Restless spoilers say Abby and Chance will continue to struggle with this new arrangement, so stay tuned to Y&R.
