The Young and the Restless spoilers for Wednesday, October 8, 2025, have Victor sharing shocking news with Jill, Nikki searching for answers, and Jack pressing Cane to make the right decision.
What's next on The Young and the Restless

On Wednesday's show, watch for Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) to share some shocking news with Jill Foster Abbott (Jess Walton). Victor likely sees Jill as a key player in the whole Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) drama that involves his Artificial Intelligence software.
Victor is a keen businessman, but he also understands the importance of family. As Cane views Jill as a surrogate mother, Victor will tell Jill what he believes she needs to know in an effort to get her to get Cane to do the right thing. Victor may be able to reach Jill if she recalls fondly their brief love affair.

Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) supports her family with all her might. She signed off on Claire (Hayley Erin), who asked for some time off so she could go to Los Angeles following her breakup with Kyle (Michael Mealor). Additionally, Nikki does her level best to keep Victor on the right path. If anyone can do that, it's Nikki!
On Wednesday's show, watch for Nikki to search for answers. Is she digging into Cane's AI plan? Or is she looking into something else? Nikki is most likely going to get Victor to see her point of view if she can provide him with as many facts and figures as possible. Hopefully, Nikki will get her answers so she can accomplish her goals!
Do the right thing

Cane has billions of dollars! Yet, he has this tentative plan to use AI software to overtake Newman Enterprises, Jabot Cosmetics, Chancellor Industries, and possibly Winters, Cassidy First, and Crimson Lights! His goal is to rewin the love of his ex-wife, Lily (Christel Khalil), and their kids, Mattie and Charlie (Lexie Stevenson and Noah Alexander Gerry).
On Wednesday's show, watch for Jack to try to make Cane see the value in doing the right thing. Cane could end up owning the world (though illegal means, perhaps), but what good would it do if he can't have the love of his family?
