What happened on The Young and the Restless

This week on The Young and the Restless, Abby and Devon clung to hope that Mariah wouldn’t hurt Dominic. Sharon was devastated when Devon informed her that Mariah had kidnapped the boy. Nick consoled Sharon when she blamed herself for not being there for Mariah. Sharon and Tessa contemplated what had made Mariah snap. Sharon enlisted the help of Detective Burrow, who had relocated to Genoa City from L.A. Abby made a video with a plea for Dominic’s safe return. Mariah’s vision of Ian implored her to let go of her feelings of guilt and claim Dominic as her own. Mariah’s maternal feelings toward Dominic intensified, and she vowed they would always be together. Victor was livid when he learned Chelsea and Nikki knew about his plan to make Cane believe Lily and the twins were in danger. Victor refused to disclose any further details, although he claimed Lily was aware of the plan. Victor ordered Cane to return to him his company, Newman Enterprises, or Cane would never see his family again. Phyllis insisted to Cane that Victor was bluffing. Daniel demanded that Phyllis give Newman back, or she’d never speak to him or Lucy again. Cane angrily confronted Adam and implied that he’d go after Victor’s loved ones to retaliate. Chelsea worried that Cane would target Connor. Noah and Sienna made plans to head back to L.A., but delayed their trip when they learned Mariah and Dominic were missing. Sienna confided to Claire that she didn’t feel like she fit into Noah’s privileged life. Sienna revealed to Claire that the art dealer who’d hassled Audra had seemingly vanished, and Claire was determined to dig into his disappearance. Sienna left town, leaving a goodbye note for Noah that said he belonged with his family. Sharon initially tried to dissuade Noah from following Sienna, but she ultimately gave him her blessing to go after the woman he loved. Holden attempted to convince Audra that Claire wasn’t like the rich girls who’d shunned Audra in the past. Cane tasked Holden with tracking down Lily and the twins. Audra overheard Claire accept Holden’s invitation to join him on a business trip to L.A.
