Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) and Cane (Billy Flynn) believe that they're in the power position now that Cane's AI program has turned on Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), the user of the AI weapon. But are they really? Victor has vanquished many foes over the years.

On Tuesday's show, watch for Victor to put Phyllis and Cane on notice. Will Victor's actions cause Phyllis and Cane to rethink their plan to overtake Victor's company? Are Phyllis and Cane going to stick to their plan, or will Victor pull a power play that will squash Cane and Phyllis's scheme?

Sally speaks

On Tuesday's show, watch for Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) to force Billy's (Jason Thompson) hand. The man had apparently put his life in order by committing to Sally, walking away from his feud with Victor, and moving towards Abbott Communications.

That all changed when Cane dangled running Chancellor Enterprises under his nose. Billy leaned into his self-destructive nature and gave Cane's idea some serious consideration. Is Billy going to throw his life into disarray by going ahead with Cane's offer? Or will Sally help Billy to see the folly of going down that path?

The dark side

All those months in hospitals may not have done any good for Mariah (Camryn Grimes). She's let Ian Ward (Ray Wise) back into her life, or at least her mind, by conjuring up a vision of the man. He's been feeding her head with all the wrong thoughts.

On Tuesday's show, watch for Mariah to visit her dark side. Does this mean she's going to become obsessed again with Dominic, whom she acted as surrogate for and helped bring into the world?

If Mariah becomes volatile, perhaps Tessa (Cait Fairbanks) will be able to step in and help ground Mariah. She desperately needs some support after all these months of self-isolating.
