What's next on The Young and the Restless

Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) was none too pleased to discover that Victor (Eric Braeden) was behind Jack's (Peter Bergman). We've seen Nikki looking for Victor and also sharing with Victoria (Amelia Heinle) about her father's plan. On Friday's episode, watch for Victor and Nikki to reach their breaking point.
Nikki believes that Jack would never agree to work with Victor. She's terrified about what will happen next to her ex-husband. Victor, as we know, doesn't listen to anyone -- not even Nikki -- when it comes to his plans. He doesn't want his judgment questioned. If Victor wants to kidnap Jack to get his company back, then that's what Victor is going to do! Will Victor and Nikki's relationship survive this impasse?
Memory Lane

Lily (Christel Khalil) told Cane (Billy Flynn) that she wanted nothing to do with him. That's why she gave him back his rose and left town for a while. Lily conspired with Victor to get Cane to do his bidding. That's how much she wanted to push Cane away!
Now, Lily's back in town. On Friday's show, watch for Cane to make amends with Lily. Can that even be done? Perhaps Lily has rethought her feelings towards Cane during her absence? Cane has pulled a lot of moves over the last year, all in an attempt to re-win Lily's love. Is that even possible anymore?
Jack, be quick

Jack (Peter Bergman) isn't one to take being captive on a small yacht sitting down. We've already seen him try to coerce Patty (Stacy Haiduk), his unbalanced ex-wife, into helping him get back to dry land. Patty claims to have not be in charge of Jack's captivity. But he believes she's a key to winning his freedom.
On Friday's episode watch for Jack to fall for Patty's trap. Sure, Patty has claimed to have reformed but if she feels that Jack doesn't trust her, then the old Patty, who's quite unpredictable, might resurface. Then, Jack might never get back to land and his loved ones!
