The Young and the Restless weekly preview sees Phyllis Summers gearing up to take on the world while Billy prepares a game-changing proposal

After an action-packed week in January 2025, The Young and the Restless is ready to move towards more reflective story arcs in the week of February 3, 2025. As fans know, criminals Jordan Howard and Ian Ward threatened to destroy the Newman family and planned a long series of crimes. However, Jordan Howard was tricked by Claire, leading to her drinking poisoned tea and dying.

In the next step of action, Victor summoned Ian for his role in the recent crimes in Genoa City. The crafty criminal stole the security person's gun and shot Victor. In return, Victor lunged at him with the gun going off and a bullet hitting Ian in the stomach. While a severely bleeding Victor survived the injury, a presumably dead Ian seems to have lived.

Ian and Victor have a history of feud in the past as the latter had helped put the former in prison on the long-running CBS daily soap. Meanwhile, the plot of The Young and the Restless presents the dynamics between various families in the fictional Genoa City including the Newmans, the Abbotts, the Winters, and many more.

The Young and the Restless: Daniel remains wary of Billy's plan

Billy Abbott and Phyllis Summers have worked out a great plan, as they believe. Phyllis would want her son, Daniel Romalotti, on board with the idea. Besides she wants to distract him away from the latest news related to Heather's death and Sharon's release. As such, Billy Abbott will pitch the plan.

However, Daniel may not feel as enthusiastic as Billy. Being practical, Daniel has always asked Billy to refrain from challenging the mighty Victor Newman. Billy, on the other hand, never listened to him. The current idea would seem like a veiled revenge project for Billy to provoke Victor and Adam Newman.

As such, Daniel will point out that the plan sounds too good to be true and is likely to fail. However, Phyllis Summers believes the plan could conquer the world for her and will express the same.
