The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Friday, January 21 – Victor’s Sneak Attack – Abby’s Custody Choice – Lauren Wants Answers

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers for Friday, January 21, tease that Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) will move forward with a sneak attack while Abby Newman-Abbott-Chancellor (Melissa Ordway) makes a custody choice. Lauren Baldwin (Tracey E. Bregman) will also want answers, so let’s discuss what’s coming up in Genoa City.

Y&R fans know Victor recently made Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc) a tempting offer.

Michael decided to retire from his role as the district attorney, but he still wants something to keep him busy – just not too busy! It defeats the purpose of retiring if Michael has to work for Victor around the clock.

Fortunately, Victor has been quite accommodating and truly believes this can be a beautiful partnership.

Although Michael hasn’t signed anything to make his legal counsel role official, Lauren may push for updates on his meeting at the ranch.

Lauren might want to know which way Michael is leaning, but Michael will enjoy leaving his wife in suspense for a while.

However, Michael should eventually surrender to the pressure and admit he’s accepting the job.

Of course, Michael may leave Lauren out of the loop on the details!

Since Victor wants to take a closer look at Ashland and the threat he might pose, it’s probably not a good idea to go spreading that around.

Victor’s trust issues are building to a full-blown investigation into Ashland’s health, which will bring some unraveling mysteries in the coming weeks.

Until then, Victor will focus on what he can do right now. He’ll move forward with some new attack and perhaps prepare the way for Michael’s next steps.

Victor will also make some sort of power grab, so that could involve his decision to take on a more active role at Newman Media.

Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) was probably hoping his father would drop the idea, but Victor may be as controlling as ever on Friday’s tense episode.

Finally, Abby will settle on a difficult decision that affects her family’s future. She’ll apparently determine that she’s out of options and isn’t going to win this baby battle.

Chance Chancellor (Conner Floyd) is siding with Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) and pushing Abby to accept the shared custody agreement.

With that in mind, Abby should relent and go along with Devon’s demand for scheduled Dominic Newman-Abbott-Chancellor (Rainn and River Ware) visits.

The Young and the Restless spoilers say Abby will struggle after making this tough call, so it could lead to more strain in her marriage.
