The Young and the Restless Next 2 Weeks: Jordan’s Surprise, Victoria’s Claire Request, Loyalty Tests and Love Snags

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers for the next two weeks, January 8 to January 19, reveal that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) will stir up suspicions with conflicting stories. During the week of January 8-12, Nikki will pretend she’s doing fine, but Victor will grow concerned when he finds her meeting with her sponsor, Seth (Brian Gaskill).

Although Victor will wonder if Nikki’s struggling more than she’s been telling him, she may act like she’s just being vigilant and downplay the support she’s receiving from Seth.

Nikki will later crumble under the pressure of trying not to disappoint Victor and her children.

It’ll lead to Nikki getting drunk again, so Lauren Baldwin (Tracey E. Bregman) will land in a tight spot once she finds her stumbling around the athletic club.

Lauren will want to take Nikki home, but Nikki won’t want Victor to see her in this intoxicated state.

It’ll put Lauren’s loyalty to the test, but she’ll agree to hide Nikki in a suite for a while and help her get back on track.

Once Victor makes Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) his co-CEOs, he’ll force them to work together on a series of tasks.

Adam and Nick will prove they can handle a little teamwork with a presentation, so Victor will give him a bigger challenge later.

Y&R spoilers say Nick and Adam will put some effort into getting along, but there could still be some problems along the way.

As for Adam’s romance with Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope), that’ll take another positive turn thanks to their upcoming dinner date.

Sally will grow closer to Adam and most likely land in bed with him again before the night’s over.

When Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) faces off with Tucker McCall (Trevor St. John), she’ll dig her heels in and insist she’s not the one who’s mistaken about how things played out in Paris.

Meanwhile, Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) will try to convince Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) that he can handle duping Tucker and that he’ll be able to pull off the second part of their plot.

However, Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) will make a mess of things by pledging her loyalty to Tucker and spilling Kyle’s dirty trick.

After Kyle realizes he’s been thwarted, he’ll blow his top and realize he’ll have to find a different path to protecting his family’s legacy.

Jack will worry about Kyle spiraling out of control, so he’ll give his son some good advice.

Ashley will also receive some guidance from Jack, so he’ll be the go-to person for words of wisdom.

At Crimson Lights, Ashley will have an unexpected reunion with Cole Howard (J. Eddie Peck), so it seems her ex-husband will offer updates on all the mayhem that went down with Jordan (Colleen Zenk) and Claire Grace (Hayley Erin).

Although Claire recently pushed Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) away, Victoria won’t let that stop her from trying to help. It turns out Victoria will need some assistance from Victor as well, so she’ll turn to her dad with a shocking request.

Claire will suffer with more horrible Jordan memories, but maybe Victor’s favor could help ease her torment.

Y&R spoilers say Claire will have some business left to settle with Jordan, so she’ll get a chance at closure.

Perhaps Victor will arrange for Claire to take a brief trip outside the psych ward so that she can rip into Jordan in lockup.

Claire may have an opportunity to trash Jordan over the past and feel in charge of her own life for once.

After Victor finds out Nikki drank again, he’ll do whatever he can to help her move forward. Victor will make it his mission to protect Nikki no matter what.

Back with Ashley, she’ll corner Audra for a confrontation. Ashley might warn that Tucker is dangerous and urge Audra to cut ties with him before he does any more damage.

As for Summer Newman (Allison Lanier), her relationship with Chance Chancellor (Conner Floyd) will take a surprising turn.

Summer seems poised to make her feelings known and possibly steal a kiss from Chance.

Although Chance is single now, will he be able to move on from Sharon Rosales (Sharon Case) so fast? Summer and Chance could face some complications when it comes to their own opportunity for a future together.

During the week of January 15-19, Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) and Christine Blair (Lauralee Bell) will let their feud over Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian) go off the rails.

Daniel Romalotti Jr. (Michael Graziadei) will also strengthen his bond with Heather Stevens (Vail Bloom) and find reasons to spend more time with her, so that could mean bad news for his relationship with Lily Winters (Christel Khalil).

Across town, the Abbotts will take a stand against Tucker and his plans for revenge, but things will escalate and put Ashley at risk as a result.

Next, Devon Hamilton-Winters (Bryton James) and Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) will try to keep the peace at Chancellor-Winters, but how long can their truce really last?

Abby Newman-Abbott (Melissa Ordway) will also fight for the board seat she wants, but that could lead to some romantic issues if Devon struggles to get on the same page.

The Young and the Restless spoilers say the next two weeks will bring some gripping scenes, so don’t miss all the action.
