Welcome to The Young and the Restless Daily Y.A.P.P. (Your After-Program Ponderings) for a quick — and by that, I mean you’re already halfway done — recap of the most amazing or what-the-heck-did-we-just-watch moments on today’s episode. Let’s get to it:
What Happened on The Young and the Restless

Hold onto your wifi, folks, because on The Young and the Restless, we’re learning that 24 hours without it is a real game-changer. While Sally’s still wondering why everyone is tripping over themselves to live on a train car and go through a maze to hang out with Cane, she has the same question we all do: Does Audra actually care about Nate at all? Sure, she’s got an agenda with Kyle, but when Sally asked her if she didn’t think Nate was back home loyally waiting for her, she looked genuinely surprised — as if she forgot he even existed. But the even more surprising thing was that Nate was actually going down memory lane and being a little mini-hero for Victoria in a time of need. Didn’t see that one coming. And while the only thing they actually did was compare Cole’s notes about Legionnaire’s Disease (see what I did there) and break (banana) bread together, we all know in soapland that if two exes are making friends, that is only going to lead to more time together, and eventually friends with benefits. With the GC Elite stuck in France incommunicado, are Claire and Victoria destined to spend their time with the only two men left in town — and if so, will they be crossing any lines?
