Christine and Danny are finally making their way back to Genoa City in the Friday, June 13 episode of The Young and the Restless, but things might not be as smooth or joyful as they’d like. While they’ve been away—Danny off performing and Christine visiting Forrester Creations in Los Angeles—their return brings them right back into a city filled with unfinished business and complicated people, especially Phyllis. With Phyllis still hanging around and known for meddling, particularly where Danny is concerned, it’s very possible she’ll stir up some trouble. She’s never been great at staying in her lane, and now that Danny is back, she might try to force her way into the picture again. Viewers can expect Christine and Danny’s return to quickly go from sweet to stressful if Phyllis decides to insert herself into their lives once more.
Meanwhile, Tessa finds herself once again caught in the middle of Phyllis’s manipulations. Phyllis has tried before to sway Daniel’s decisions through Tessa, and it looks like she’s trying again—possibly trying to get Daniel to attend a fancy gala in France hosted by Aristotle Dumas. But Tessa stands her ground. She’s not letting herself be used as a tool in Phyllis’s plans. Whether or not she agrees with Daniel going to the gala, she’s clear on one thing—Daniel needs to make his own choices, and no one, not even his mother, should be pulling the strings. Tessa’s message is firm and simple: she’s not part of the pressure game.
As for Devon, he’s not buying into Amanda’s reassurances about her boss, Aristotle Dumas. Amanda insists Dumas is harmless, but Devon isn’t taking her word for it. He doesn’t trust easily—especially when it comes to protecting the Chancellor-Winters legacy. Devon is ready to take matters into his own hands, and he might even be planning to head to France himself to see what Dumas is really about. He knows that business, family, and power don’t mix well with blind trust. For Devon, the stakes are too high to sit back and hope for the best—he’s ready to confront Dumas face-to-face and make sure his family’s future stays secure.
