B&B Logo

Finn and Steffy returned from their camping trip, and during a doctor's visit, learned that they were having a baby boy. Bill arrived at the police station in time to try to talk Liam out of confessing. Liam pretended that he'd leave and meet Bill at the office, but once Bill had gone, Liam confessed to killing Vinny. When Bill learned about the confession, he confessed his role in the cover-up, and Baker decided to arrest him, too. Thinking it would free Liam, Hope informed Baker that Bill had done the cover-up, but Baker informed her that Liam's silence had made him complicit in it.

The Young and the Restless

What happened the week of May 31, 2021

A DNA test confirmed Kyle had fathered Harrison, and Amanda learned Richard had tracked down her foster family before he'd died

Y&R Logo

Ashland tracked down Tara and Harrison at the Abbott mansion after Sally tipped him off. A DNA test confirmed that Kyle had fathered Harrison. Tara and Kyle gently explained to Harrison that Kyle was his second dad. Tara decided to stay in Genoa City. Summer became increasingly insecure when she saw Kyle, Tara, and Harrison bonding as a family. Ashland agreed to shared custody -- on the condition that Kyle wasn't in Harrison's life. Jack advised Ashland not to keep Harrison from his mother. The judge determined that Chelsea was not guilty by reason of insanity and ruled that she had to remain at the psychiatric facility. Michael suspected that Victor had pulled strings to help Chelsea avoid jail time. Chloe realized that Chelsea didn't understand how unstable she really was. Nick and Devon agreed to let Newman Media sponsor New Hope. Sally implied to Summer that she was interested in a job at an Italian fashion house, hoping to tempt Summer into applying for the position. Billy published an article to expose how Victor had used Ashland's heart attack to gain control of Cyaxares. Over Victor's objections, Adam decided to ignore it rather than retaliate. Victoria claimed to be supportive when she learned that Billy and Lily had moved in together. Nate and Imani took an instant liking to one another. Richard's private investigator revealed that Richard had tracked down Amanda's foster family, but he'd died before finding Amanda. Devon feared Amanda had become too personally involved to handle Sutton's case objectively.
