The Young and the Restless spoilers for Friday, August 1, move into the last days of summer with Tessa finally seeing some light at the end of her very dark Mariah tunnel, as a mysterious figure steps up with answers.
Tessa Gets Help
Tessa (Cait Fairbanks) was blindsided when Mariah (Camryn Grimes) returned from what should have been a run-of-the-mill business trip, only to announce that she was leaving Tessa… and Aria. Mariah wouldn’t explain why, what happened, or who put her into such a state. Tessa was given no choice but to accept it.
But Tessa has never been very good at just accepting things. (Hey, remember when she wouldn’t give up looking for her missing sister… or when she kidnapped Sharon [Sharon Case]? Tessa goes full tilt for what she believes in!) So when a stranger approaches her with information, Tessa leaps on it. Is she putting herself and Aria into even more danger?
Daniel Isn’t So Sure
Phyllis (Michelle Stafford, who revealed a stunning talent) is back in Genoa City, and she is full of big plans. Phyllis shares those plans with Daniel (Michael Graziadei). She is super excited. Daniel is… cautious.
Haven’t they had this conversation before? More than once? Phyllis explains what she’s going to do, and Daniel tries to bring her down to earth. When has Phyllis ever been brought back down to earth? Why does Daniel even still try? Why is Phyllis still surprised?
Jack Makes A Sacrifice
Jack (Peter Bergman) doesn’t like what Billy (Jason Thompson) is doing. He threatened to stop supporting him financially. Billy threw one of his patented tantrums. Will it be enough to change Jack’s mind? Especially now that Billy wants to team up with Phyllis? Jack may step in just to save them both… from themselves.
Tessa (Cait Fairbanks) takes some downtime with her daughter and spends some time in the park with Aria. The pair soak in some fun in the sun and share some
laughs – which is how Daniel finds them. Daniel looks thrilled to happen upon this lovely scene and jumps at the opportunity to join them. Are Daniel and Tessa
getting too close for comfort?
