Victor suspects that Tucker McCall is Aristotle Dumas on The Young and the Restless

Victor Newman will grow increasingly suspicious of Tucker McCall, given the likelihood that Tucker operates under the alias Aristotle Dumas. Michael Baldwin will apprise Victor with new details, including the news that Damian Kane, Aristotle's established business associate, is Nate Hastings' half-brother.

The familial ties, Aristotle's past interest in the Winters family, and the similarity of names between Aristotle's corporation, Arabesque, and Tucker's former corporation, Glissade, will cause Victor to draw the parallels. While Victor contemplates this possibility, Michael will warn him that a nervous employee, presumably Mathison, whom he has planted as a mole, is now demanding more money to stay silent.

Unless bribed, Mathison will expose Victor's scheme to plant spies in Jabot. Michael will intervene to take care of the matter, hoping to achieve results without risking detection.

Victor, however, will make sure everyone knows that he will not tolerate threats and will put pressure on Michael to resolve the issue.

Jack and Kyle launch a counterattack on The Young and the Restless

Jack and Kyle Abbott will discuss the increasing panic about corporate sabotage. Kyle will inform Jack about Mathison's latest suspicious behavior, which will drive the two men to the realization that Victor has some insiders among their ranks.

Rather than panicking, Jack will propose a daring counterstroke. He will resolve to locate these employees and outbid Victor, offering them more to switch sides. Jack’s motivation will be clear: to turn Victor’s plan against him and regain the upper hand.

Jack will also open up to Kyle about family matters, admitting that the situation involves Traci’s fiancé “Alan,” though he will refrain from going into detail. As their business and personal concerns converge, father and son will work to stay one step ahead of Victor's next move.

Traci’s emotional phone call raises red flags on The Young and the Restless

Amid this brewing corporate war, Traci Abbott will navigate a personal crisis. While at the GCAC, Diane Jenkins will join her at a table and quickly pick up on Traci’s unease. Diane will ask about Traci’s wedding plans, but Traci will deflect, blaming nerves.

The real source of her anxiety, however, will emerge when Traci receives a phone call from “Alan Laurent,” who is Martin Laurent. The plea will be emotional, as “Alan” shares a pleasant memory with wildflowers and reduces her to tears. She will urge him to return home immediately, torn between conflicting feelings.

Although Traci will try to mask her distress, Diane will continue to sense something is wrong. Despite offering emotional support, Diane will choose not to take any concrete steps to intervene, something that could become problematic if Traci’s suspicions about Martin and “Alan” being the same person are correct.

Jack, meanwhile, will warn Traci over the phone not to meet “Alan” alone should he arrive in town. He remains wary of Martin’s identity and intentions, suspecting danger could be on the horizon in The Young and the Restless.

Lauren begs Nikki to rescue Michael on The Young and the Restless

At the same time, Lauren Fenmore will take action for herself by going to talk to Nikki Newman. She will request that Nikki help keep Michael safe by conversing with Victor, attempting to discourage him from involving Michael in any further risky ventures. Lauren will inform Nikki that Michael's ongoing dedication to Victor may place him in serious peril if the ventures get out of control.

Meanwhile, at the ranch, Nikki will confront Michael with his stress, but he will keep mum, citing that Victor has to be protected. When Nikki confronts Victor later on, he will wave aside her concerns, unwilling to recognize the full nature of his current practices.
