The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Chelsea Lands in Fairview, Fakes Mental Breakdown – Avoids Prison But Still Locked Up?

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers tease that Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) will have to start thinking about her defense strategy soon. Whenever Chloe Mitchell (Elizabeth Hendrickson) raises concerns about their plot coming back to bite them, Chelsea is always quick to urge her bestie to relax.

Chelsea doesn’t see what the big deal is since there’s no proof – at least not as far as she knows! However, there are certainly ways to get tripped up by a scheme like this.

Rey Rosales (Jordi Vilasuso) won’t rest until he uncovers the truth about who really poisoned him, so he’ll keep following the trail that leads back to Chelsea.

It looks like Chelsea will officially get busted within the next couple weeks, The Young and the Restless spoilers say she’ll have to change tactics. Chelsea won’t be able to stay in denial any longer, so she’ll have to start thinking about how she’s going to avoid prison.

It seems Chelsea may even resort to more violence through an armed Victor encounter, so she’ll have a deep hole to climb out of following her arrest. What’s a con artist like Chelsea going to do once she’s backed into a corner?

Chelsea could easily do what she knows best and run a con. She may fake a mental breakdown in hopes of making things a little easier on herself when it comes to where she serves her time.

Then again, there could be some plea deal on the table or maybe Chelsea could even face a legitimate breakdown under the circumstances. It’d be reasonable considering everything Chelsea went through leading up to this vengeful Adam plot.

Whatever the case, this Y&R story is ripe for a defense strategy involving Chelsea’s brain trauma. The Young and the Restless already established the possibility through Adam’s dialogue and fears about pushing Chelsea too far.

Adam and Sharon Rosales (Sharon Case) have battled concerns about something snapping inside Chelsea, so that might be a defense strategy Chelsea can work with. The Young and the Restless buzz hints that Chelsea may land in Fairview instead of prison.

Rey can understand Chelsea’s frustration with Adam and how she was driven to this point. He can’t let Chelsea get away with her actions, but he can fight to have Chelsea committed instead of imprisoned. Rey might feel like Chelsea needs healing more than anything and take pity on her somewhat.

Regardless, Y&R insiders are pointing in the direction of Fairview as Chelsea’s next stop. As other news emerges, we’ll provide updates. The Young and the Restless spoilers say Chelsea will have plenty of time to think about what she’s done soon enough!
