Christmas Eve in Genoa City is usually a time for twinkling lights, family toasts, and Newman-level extravagance. But this year, the most festive night of the season is about to turn into a full-blown disaster, and no one is feeling the pressure more than Victor Newman himself.
Y&R is delivering a holiday episode packed with danger, secrets, and a chilling act of revenge — one that threatens to tear apart the Newmans when they least expect it.
This is not the peaceful Christmas anyone hoped for.
🎁 A Holiday Gathering Turns Into a Nightmare
The Newmans gather at the ranch for their traditional Christmas Eve celebration, but the warmth and sparkle don’t last long. Beneath the surface of holiday cheer lies a growing threat — one Victor has sensed for weeks but hasn’t been able to stop.
Tonight, the danger finally arrives in the form of Matt’s long-simmering vendetta, and it hits the family right where it hurts:
inside their home.

-
Strange disturbances interrupt the ranch festivities
-
Security alerts begin flashing
-
Victoria and Nick notice inconsistencies in the staff
-
And Victor realizes, far too late, that Matt has already breached their defenses
Matt isn’t interested in money.
He isn’t interested in a warning.
He wants the Newmans to feel vulnerable — and he wants Victor to feel powerless.
Tonight, he gets both.
