The Young and the Restless spoilers for Thursday, August 14, 2025, have Victor recruiting Nick to take down an opponent, Cricket asking Lauren a favor, and Daniel confessing to Danny.
What's next on The Young and the Restless

Victor (Eric Braeden) is at war with Cane (Billy Flynn) on Y&R. On Thursday's show, watch for the mogul to enlist the aid of his son, Nick (Joshua Morrow), to take down an opponent. Is that enemy Cain? While Victor has many adversaries out there, Cane is currently at the top of Victor's list!
Like his father, Nick is very loyal to family. We can't imagine Victor asking Nick anything that he wouldn't do. How far Victor will go when he asks Nick to join him remains to be seen.
Wedding belle

Cricket (AKA Christine, played by Lauralee Bell) and Lauren (Tracey Bregman) have many men in common. Both were wed to Paul (Doug Davidson), and Chris was once engaged to Michael (Christian LeBlanc), Lauren's husband. Then, there's Danny, too. Lauren was Danny's one-time singing partner and love interest.
On Thursday's show, watch for Cricket to ask Lauren a favor. As she has accepted Danny's proposal, Cricket might ask Lauren to be her maid of honor. In the past, Cricket has called upon her pal, Nina (Tricia Cast), to stand by her side when she ties the knot. This time, it could be Lauren's honor. However, Cricket may be asking Lauren something else entirely!
Bless me, Father

On Thursday's show, watch for Daniel to confess something to his father. What could it be? We recently saw Daniel's mother, Phyllis (Michelle Stafford), lay a big secret on her son by telling him what Cane's master plan is in Genoa City. Is Daniel going to share that information with his father?
The other thing going on in Daniel's life is his guitar lessons. Well, that and his guitar teacher — Tessa (Cait Fairbanks). Tessa, despite going through her ordeal with estranged wife Mariah (Camryn Grimes), has lent Daniel a sympathetic ear and sage advice. Is Daniel starting to develop feelings for Tessa? That's the kind of thing about which a son would want to talk to his dad.
