Here are your spoilers for The Young and the Restless episode airing on Thursday, January 16, 2025, when Sally forces Billy to come clean, Phyllis defends her actions, and Nick keeps a secret from Sharon.
What's next on The Young and the Restless

Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) is the best thing that has ever happened to Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson), but he's not being honest with her. Sally has every right to demand loyalty, honesty, and transparency from the man she loves. How many times has Sally stood by Billy, pushed him to be the best he can be, and forgiven him? Too many to count, we feel.
On Thursday's show, watch for Sally to force Billy to come clean. The only hope these two have to make it in the long run is for them to be honest with one another. Will Billy fess up or repeat some past bad behavior?
A strong offense

Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) is no stranger to going after what she wants. Even before she came to Genoa City, she lied to and manipulated Danny (Michael Damian) to achieve her goals. Now, Phyllis has literally gotten into bed with the enemy -- Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn). No one likes that she is teaming up with Cane or that they appear to be back in control of the AI program.
On Thursday's show, watch for Phyllis to defend her actions. But if nobody accepts her defense, will she even care? Probably not!
Close to the vest

Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) paid the price when he attempted to seek justice by himself with Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). He's got a broken bone, and he's going to be on crutches for a bit, most likely.
Has Nick learned from trying to do things all alone? That's a tough call! On Thursday's show, watch for Nick to keep a secret from Sharon (Sharon Case). This might be for her own benefit, Nick feels. But isn't honesty the best policy? Haven't these two been through enough over the last year? We've seen Nick and Sharon growing closer than ever. If she finds out that he's not being honest, Sharon could lay into Nick the way she did Noah (Lucas Adams) when he went running off from the hospital, leaving himself vulnerable to another attack from Matt.
