Young and Restless Recaps

Y&R Week of July 20, 2009

Monday

Lily feared the imminent results of the biopsy. Lily understood why Cane hadn't been open with her. Lily added that she fears losing everything. In the waiting room, Neil, Olivia and Devon sat waiting for news on the biopsy. Olivia got a call; the lab results were in. Lily recounted the conversation where Cane admitted he was glad they never had children and was glad "that I could live my life with someone else." "But I don't want to be free," Lily said sadly. "I'm scared. I don't want to die," Lily sobbed into Colleen's arms.

Olivia returned with news. Neil entered Lily's room and Colleen left. She saw Olivia comforting Devon. "It's bad isn't it," Lily said, crying. Neil confirmed that she has cancer. Olivia was going to schedule surgery right away. "This can't be happening," Lily wept. Neil assured his daughter that women beat this kind of cancer every day as he took Lily into his arms. Olivia began to tell Lily everything. She said they would know more after the surgery. Olivia said she might have to have a hysterectomy, but that would be the worse case scenario. Lily asked what her odds where and told her father to stop trying to protect her. Olivia said there was a 45-percent survival rate. Everyone in the room started to cry. Neil and Devon reassured Lily that they would be by her side every step of the way. Olivia comforted a heartbroken Neil in the waiting room. "She needs her mother," he said. Olivia reminded Neil that he survived losing Dru. Neil started crying at the thought of losing Lily.

Colleen handed Lily a phone and she dialed Cane's number. She got his answering machine and hung up. "I can't," she said.

Billy wanted to talk to his brother Phillip. Chance and Nina entered the living room. Billy told Phillip that if he hurts "Katherine or my mom I will kill you." Phillip assured them that he wasn't gong to hurt anybody any more. Chance was introduced to everyone and Chloe immediately began flirting with him. She introduced herself as "Delia's mom." Billy said goodbye to everyone. Jill thanked Billy for making an effort with his brother.

Jill had lunch with Michael and asked him to work out the legal
ramifications dealing with Phillip's return. "Starting with my will," she said firmly. Jill said she wanted the inheritance split between 3 sons — Billy, Phillip and Cane. Michael thought this was a nightmare in the making. Jill told him that in her mind Cane is still her son. "I will always love him as my own," she vowed.

Michael didn't think Kevin's "Embrace your inner chipmunk" T-shirts would be a big seller. Kevin disagreed with his brother. Kevin thought he could reach beyond "his demographic." Michael patiently listened. Kevin wanted to copyright the plan. Michael wasn't as convinced but told his younger brother that he thought he was on to something. Michael said he'd start working on the copyright. Kevin had a surprise for Jana. "It's going to change our
lives for the better," Kevin told her excitedly. "It's marketing the idea of embracing your inner chipmunk," he said. Jana remembered hearing about that but never thought he was serious. Jana thought it was awful that Kevin was cashing in on his crimes. Jana suggested he donate the money to charity. Kevin said he would much to Jana's delight.

Mac visited Billy's new apartment. He had bought Murphy's old trailer as a birthday present for himself. The two kissed and kissed but Billy's cell phone interrupted them. It was Colleen with the news about Lily. Billy was stunned to hear she has cancer. Billy asked if he could see her. Colleen said that everyone was scared. Billy said he'd give the family time and then he's visit Lily. Colleen asked where Cane was. "Probably the outback," he snapped. Billy told Mac the news. Mac went to find Cane. Billy didn't think Mac should work so hard to find Cane. "You might not think that Lily needs Cane, but you are wrong," Mac said as she headed out.

Cane was at the airport waiting to board a plane. Mac found him. "You have to stay. Lily needs you," Mac said.

Tuesday

Billy met up with Colleen at the hospital and they went to get Lily some magazines. Lily was upset when she overheard Neil say that he's taking a leave of absence. He assured her that it would be okay. Meanwhile, Mackenzie caught up with Cane at the bus station and told him that Lily has cancer.... Devon, Neil, Colleen and Billy joined Lily in her hospital room and vowed to stand by her as she deals with her illness. She tried to keep her spirits up and urged Neil and Devon to let her spend some time with her friends.... Mac took Cane to Billy's trailer and filled him in on Lily's condition. However, Mac didn't know what kind of cancer Lily was suffering from. She implored Cane to be there for Lily while she's going through this. Cane didn't think she needed him. "She needs her husband, Cane," Mac firmly stated. "You need to try to stop doing the noble thing and do the right thing." Cane didn't think Neil and Devon would let him see her. Mac argued that Lily would just appreciate him being close. Cane agreed to stick around until he knew that Lily had her surgery and the cancer had been caught. Mac suggested he stay in the trailer, but Cane didn't think Billy would like that.... At the hospital, Billy sadly went on about how Cane betrayed Lily and then she got cancer. "Well, if this is your idea of a pep talk..." Lily joked. Billy became serious as he offered to be her "punching bag" should she need to let out her frustrations on anyone. Lily appreciated it.

Colleen called J.T. at Newman Enterprises and thanked him for rescuing her when she was drunk at Jimmy's bar. He assured her that he didn't tell anyone about her flashing the crowd. She vowed to never get drunk again. Victoria joined him for lunch. Soon after, Jeffrey and Gloria entered Victor's office and informed him that they set up Colleen to take a fall — and got it all on video. The Bardwells wanted their money right away. "The two of you amuse
me," Victor chuckled, explaining that he's not paying them until their "mission" is accomplished, namely Colleen getting kicked off the Newman board. Gloria promised to step things up. Later, she asked Kevin to come up with an anonymous, untraceable e-mail address for her. When he asked what it was for, she lied that it was for an "erotic scavenger hunt" for Jeffrey. Kevin agreed to help her provided she never give him so much unwanted information again. Gloria and Jeff later put the video of Colleen flashing the crowd online and kept it on continuous loop at the coffeehouse.... At
Newman, Victor's secretary showed the video of Colleen to J.T. and Victoria.... Kevin's mouth fell open as he eyed the video.

Deacon informed one of his flunkies that he's meeting Daniel at Crimson Lights. Deacon said that he hasn't heard from Amber but knew how to handle her.... At he coffeehouse, Amber told Jana about how she saw Deacon. Jana urged Amber to tell Daniel the truth about her and Deacon's past. Daniel joined them and relayed that he's meeting with an "art dealer" named Deacon. Amber decided to come clean with Daniel and warned him that he couldn't
trust Deacon. Sharpe then arrived and "accidentally" addressed Amber by her twin's name, April, so it appeared as if they didn't know each other. Amber urged Daniel to talk, but Deacon wouldn't leave them alone and showed Daniel a photo of his son, "Little D." Amber's face clouded over as she looked at a photo of the child she once thought of as her own. Deacon promised Daniel that he's just a single father trying to do right by his son and gave Daniel his hotel room number. After, Daniel wondered why Amber had been so rude to Deacon. Amber hastily left the coffeeshop and confronted Deacon. "What do you want?" she demanded to know. He warned her that he has information that could send Daniel to jail, unless she gives him what he wants. And what did Deacon want exactly? Amber. Deacon offered to leave her and Daniel alone provided she spend one night with him. Amber bolted from Deacon's suite. Deacon then made a call to the authorities about Daniel.... Deacon's thug approached Jana in the coffeehouse and told her that he's a "fan" of Kevin. She offered to introduce them. The man said his name is Rider, no last name, and was honored to meet Kevin.... Amber returned home and embraced Daniel. The Feds then arrived to search Daniel's place, explaining they had a tip from an anonymous called. They broke through a wall and found the forged Terroni. Daniel insisted that he was framed.... Deacon sat back in his suite and calmly had a drink.

Devon informed Neil that Lily tried to call Cane earlier, but hung up. Neil refused to allow Cane to mess with her head.... Cane instructed Mac on how she could lift Lily's spirits for him.... Colleen got a call from Victoria, who demanded she come to the office right away. She left and Billy stayed with Lily. He was happy that they were able to be friends again and reminded her that Ashley beat cancer. Later, Mac came by with DVDs of several old movies for Lily. Lily wondered how Mac knew she liked them; Mac lied that she overheard Lily mention it one night at Jimmy's. The movies made Lily think of Cane; she profusely thanked Mac for bringing them. Later, Billy wanted to go back to the trailer with Mac, but she said she wasn't in the mood after seeing Lily in the hospital..... Lily watched the movies and thought of Cane. In the trailer, Cane thought of Lily. The camera then cut to a screen of both of them in their separate locales, crying.

At Newman, J.T. shrugged that Colleen's behavior wasn't a big deal. Victoria disagreed and showed the video to her dad. Colleen arrived at the office and wondered why everyone was looking at her. J.T. showed her the video and she freaked out. Victor joined them and Colleen apologized. Victoria told her that the damage has been done and was prepared to put out some press releases. Victor, however, was prepared to dismiss her. Vicky thought it was harsh, but Victor went ahead and kicked Colleen off the Newman board.

Wednesday

At Crimson Lights, Kevin was in a panic when he told Jana that Daniel was back in jail. They both realized that if Daniel was in trouble, then Jana could be next. Heather arrived for some coffee, and encountered Michael. They discussed Daniel's case. Michael insisted that Daniel was being framed, but Heather replied that the D.A. would never buy that argument, and that she had no influence over him. An FBI agent arrived to question Jana, but Kevin rudely sent him away after realizing he had no warrant. Jana was thankful.

In jail, Daniel told Amber that someone went through an awful lot of trouble to set him up. Amber flashed back to her meeting with Deacon in which he gave her an ultimatum: sleep with him or her boyfriend would go down. Michael arrived to tell Daniel that it looked like the judge might not allow bail. Amber took off to confront Deacon at his hotel room. She began screaming at Deacon, saying that she would go to the police and tell them everything. "I would like nothing better than to see you hang!" she spat. Deacon was not a bit intimidated. "You're not smart enough to pull this off," she told him. "There will be evidence linking the murder to you." Deacon laughed it off, but asked her what she would do in exchange for rock solid evidence that could get Daniel released. "You got nothin' I want," Amber retorted. "That's not what you used to say," Deacon sneered. As Amber rushed to the door to leave, Deacon pushed a button on his laptop and Balfour's voice began playing. Amber froze and listened to the recording. In it, Balfour was gloating that "Romalotti has no idea he is being set up. He is going to go down hard." Amber wondered how Deacon had gotten the recording. "The question is," Deacon growled as he grabbed Amber from behind, "how do YOU get it?" Amber couldn't believe that Deacon was willing to frame an innocent man just to get her into bed. Just then, her cell phone rang. It was Daniel, calling to tell her that the judge had revoked his bail. While she was on the phone, Deacon pulled down the bed. He yanked the phone out of her hand and informed her that his offer was for one night only, and after tonight, he would be "clearing out some room on his hard drive" and that the evidence would "go bye-bye."

Phyllis and Nick brought Summer home from the hospital. Nick assured Phyllis that they would stay together as a family. Nick and Phyllis were thrilled when Summer looked at Nick and said, "Da-Da". Paul and Nikki arrived to visit Summer. Nick and Phyllis filled them in on Summer's condition. Paul lamented that he had ever backed off Mary Jane. Nick asked what they had found out about her in Europe. Nick and Phyllis were shocked to hear that none of the companies Mary Jane had supposedly worked for in Europe had ever heard of her. They concluded that she had fabricated everything about her history. Paul hurried off to go discuss the situation with Victor, saying that they needed to team up to find MJ immediately. Phyllis then received a call from Amber, who told her that Daniel had been arrested again and was in jail. Phyllis rushed down to the jail to visit with her son. Daniel wanted to know how Summer was doing. Phyllis tearfully described her slow recovery. Daniel encouraged her to go home to Summer, but Phyllis insisted on staying, saying that she was his mother too. She asked if he had any idea who had set him up. He responded that he couldn't think of anyone who could hate him that much.

Back at the tack house, Nikki and Nicholas were alone. They began talking about how odd Adam's behavior had been. Nick recounted seeing him with his arms full of women's clothing. They wondered what he was up to. They theorized that perhaps he had been "shopping" for his girlfriend, or that maybe the clothes were actually for him. Nikki told Nick about seeing Adam with Rafe. "Heather is his girlfriend," she said revealed slowly, "but apparently Rafe is his boyfriend." Nick's jaw dropped. They speculated that having a boyfriend was probably not Adam's only secret.

Heather visited Adam in his room. He was upset about Victor forcing him to go to a halfway house. Heather said she didn't understand why it was so important to him to stay at the ranch, especially in light of how badly Victor had treated him. He implored her to use her pull with the D.A. to stop the transfer. She told him that there was nothing that she could do, but that she would always love and believe in him.

Downstairs, Victor informed Ashley of his decision to send Adam away. Ashley was stunned and confused. Victor assured her that her health was his priority. Ashley begged him to reconsider; that Adam had been nothing but supportive of her. Ashley rushed upstairs to talk to Adam. She greeted Heather as she was on her way out, and then sat down with Adam to talk. She tearfully asked him to be her baby's godfather. She explained that since the baby was named after his mother, Hope, she knew he would have a soft spot for her. She told him how much faith she had in him, and that she hoped Victor would change his mind about sending him away.

Paul arrived at Victor's to discuss Mary Jane's disappearance. Victor wanted to handle it himself, but Paul refused, saying that he needed to help because his fiancee's granddaughter had been hurt by MJ. Victor agreed to team up, and they concocted an idea for a press conference announcing a reward for any information about MJ's whereabouts. Heather arrived for the press conference, representing the D.A.'s office. Victor began the live press conference. He looked into the camera and offered a one million dollar reward for any information about the woman who had harmed Summer.

Adam jumped out of his window with his ankle monitor on. He ran to the potting shed to warn Mary Jane about the press conference, saying that everyone would now be on the hunt for her. He instructed her to get off the ranch as soon as possible. They heard the sirens approaching, so she took off. Detective Wallace arrived at the ranch to inform Victor that Adam had left the premises. Just then, Adam came running in, out of breath, describing a woman "trespasser" that he had been chasing. He apologized for forgetting about his monitor as he was desperately trying to catch the intruder. He directed the police to the old potting shed. The detective and Paul questioned Victor about why MJ might be targeting the Newmans. Victor covered up his relationship with MJ, and instead asked Wallace to make sure Adam was not punished for violating house arrest. He further instructed Heather to withdraw his petition to have Adam transferred. Ashley beamed with thanks, and Adam feigned gratitude.

Mary Jane, alone and disheveled, wandered around a dark alley in town. Distraught without Kitty, she began mumbling to herself. She asked herself where she could go and what she would do next. She assured herself that she could still get Jack to love her.

Thursday

Billy went to Jimmy's bar. There, he called Mac and left a message reminding her that they still hadn't gotten around to celebrating his birthday. Meanwhile, at the trailer Cane asked Mac how Lily liked the DVDs of old movies and Mac replied that they seemed to cheer her up. She also informed him that Lily's surgery was going to be that day and that she's suffering from ovarian cancer. Cane feared that Lily wouldn't be able to have kids if it spread; Mac acknowledged that that could very well be the case. Cane was devastated. Mac promised to keep him updated, for which Cane was grateful. She replied that though she doesn't condone him impersonating Phillip, she understands that he didn't mean to hurt anyone.

At the hospital, Olivia told Lily, Neil and Devon that she had good news — she got one of the top doctors to handle Lily's surgery. However, Lily refused to sign the consent form because she wanted to harvest and freeze her eggs first. Liv warned that if she waited, the cancer could get worse. Neil pleaded with his daughter to get the surgery immediately, but Lily hated the idea of not being able to have a child. Neil reminded her that she could still adopt and urged her not to risk her life.

Jack and a pregnant Sharon went to Crimson Lights. There, they saw a news bulletin about how Victor wanted Mary Jane arrested in exchange for a large reward. Victor explained how MJ almost killed Summer and wanted Mary Jane
arrested. Jack filled in Sharon on how MJ apparently blamed Phyllis for hurting Summer as a cover-up; Sharon was aghast that Jack had been dating this woman. Jack doubted that MJ was anywhere near Genoa City, given that Victor was looking for her. Sharon hoped they'd find and arrest her. Jack suggested they concentrate on "their" baby instead. He wanted to go with her to her ultrasound, but she wanted to go by herself. He then offered to get yogurt for her when she had a craving, but she told him it wasn't necessary. After he left to get it, Sharon told herself that letting him think he was the father of her baby was the best for everyone.

Victor got calls that Mary Jane was spotted in Ohio, Oklahoma and Illinois ... and a woman's fish tank. Heh. Heather wasn't surprised that the "crazies" were coming out of the woodwork with such a large sum of money being offered. She was glad that Adam had exposed MJ and wasn't being sent to a halfway house. Adam felt as if he finally had something to look forward to — his future with Heather. They had sex and declared their love for each other. Later, Nikki met up with Victor and told him that Adam has been hiding something from his father: Adam is gay. Victor was understandably stunned. Nikki revealed how she'd seen Adam and Rafe kissing.... Rafe came by the Newman Ranch and Adam asked if they could talk. He apologized for leading Rafe on into thinking they were more than friends. Rafe accused Adam of using him and stormed out.

Mary Jane wandered aimlessly in an alley and, while foraging for food, found a discarded doll in the trash. She gouged the eyes out of the toy, then left it outside of Sharon's door (nice security at the G.C.A.C., eh?) Jack returned from his yogurt-buying errand and found the doll in an old box with Sharon's name scrawled on it. Realizing who was most likely responsible for the gift, Jack again asked Sharon to move back in with him, but she refused, explaining that she doesn't want to give him any false hope about the state of their relationship. She grew annoyed as he went on about needing to protect her, without mentioning Mary Jane. "Against what?" Sharon wondered. Jack then arranged to book a suite near Sharon's. Meanwhile, a desperate returned to the alley, still holding the doll's eyeballs. Mac encountered MJ and, not knowing who she is, offered help.

Billy returned to his trailer and was furious to find Cane taking a shower there. Cane lied that Mac didn't know he was there, but Billy didn't believe him. Cane explained that he's staying in town until he knows Lily's okay, but Billy wasn't moved by this sentiment. After, a steamed Billy went to the bar and vented to Mac how angry his is. Still, she wasn't sorry that she helped out Cane, noting that Lily needed her husband. Billy argued that Cane is a con artist and is duping Mac..... Tyra joined everyone at the hospital and offered to speak with Lily, but when she went to the hospital room, Lily was gone.... Lily went to Jimmy's to look for Cane and ran into Billy. She confided in him about how she might not be able to have kids if she has her surgery. She was relieved when Billy informed her that Cane was still in town; he then admitted to having kicked him out. Billy promised to look for him for her and implored Lily to return to the hospital.... Lily's family was anxious about her going missing, realizing that it could be a life or death situation.... Cane returned to the bar and saw Lily. They ran into each other's arms.

Nikki ran into Heather at the coffeehouse and warned Heather about Adam not being the man he says he is. Heather snapped that her relationship is none of Nikki's business. Nikki replied that she didn't want to see Heather get hurt, but Heather insisted that she could take care of herself. Heather then ran into Rafe, who warned that Adam is "bad news."... Victor told Adam that he knows about him and Rafe, and that Adam is gay. Adam tried to explain himself, but Victor assured him that Adam is his son, no matter what.

Friday

Chance and Chloe went to Crimson Lights with Katherine. Kay introduced Chance to Kevin. Chance explained that he received an honorable discharge from the military. Chloe wondered why he returned to Genoa City; Chance explained that he wanted to spend time with Kay, Nina and his family. Phillip soon arrived and Chloe invited him to sit with them. Phil wanted to have a talk with his son, however, Chance wasn't exactly welcoming. Kay spoke with Phil alone and advised him to give Chance some space. Chloe agreed to entertain Chance while Kay visited Lily in the hospital. After, Chance bluntly told Phillip that since Phil was never a part of his life, he never missed him. Phillip was hurt and Chloe encouraged Chance to open up to his dad. Chance didn't want to discuss him. Instead, she offered to give him the "inside scoop" on G.C., but Chance just wanted to know more about her. She filled him in on her history with Billy, emphasizing that they're not together at the moment — but that she hoped they would be. Chance didn't understand why someone as great as Chloe was willing to wait around for Billy. She was shocked when Chance replied that he's never had a girlfriend — and that he's a virgin. "Is it a religious thing? Are you gay?" she asked. Chance said it was neither and that he's simply waiting for the right person. Chloe was intrigued to meet "a really hot guy-virgin." "I really like kissing and I'm sure I'm gonna like sex, too," he said. Chloe mused that perhaps he hadn't been kissed right — then leaned over and planted one right on him. Chance was left speechless.

At the hospital, Neil and Olivia worried about a missing Lily. Liv
understood Lily's hesitancy about getting surgery but hoped that the cancer hadn't spread. Kay arrived to offer her support and they filled her in on the Lily situation. Kay was confident that Lily would make the right choice.... At Jimmy's Lily and Cane embraced. She explained to him how she's supposed to be getting surgery but fears that her reproductive organs will be removed. Cane urged her to get the surgery to save her life. He understood why she wanted to harvest her eggs, but wondered if the late Dru
would want Lily to risk her life to do so. Lily revealed that she found out about the cancer in the first place because she'd wrongly thought she was pregnant — but that it had turned out to be a false positive. She lamented that all of their plans for a life together were gone. Cane promised to support her, but still urged her to go to the hospital. "I couldn't stand living in this world if you weren't here," he stated.

Billy called Mac and asked her to meet him at his trailer. When she arrived, he surprised her by presenting her with her corsage from their prom, as well as her scrapbook and prom queen tiara. Playing on his stereo was the old recording on them singing karaoke. He placed the tiara on her head and told him that the greatest memory of his life was dancing with her the night of the prom. He turned up the radio; they shared a slow dance and kissed. They then sat down on the couch and went through the scrapbook. She wouldn't let him see a particular photo, but he pulled it out of her hands. It was a diary entrance about a particular freckle on Billy's body — and went on with her admitting that she was falling in love with him. Billy made up his own diary entry for what he would've written as a teen. Mac found her favorite freckle on him and kissed it. Later, Billy and Mac turned off their phones and undressed each other ... and finally began to have sex after waiting for six years.

Lily arrived at the hospital with Cane and agreed to go through with the surgery. Liv and Neil were relieved, but Neil told Cane it wasn't his place to be there. Lily asked for Cane as she went into surgery and was disappointed that he wasn't there. Liv promised to stay with her.... Phillip and Cane met at Jimmy's. Cane told him that there's nothing for him in Australia and there's nothing for him in Genoa City. Kay stopped by the bar and thanked Cane for helping Lily. She called Cane a "good man" and apologized for the way she's treated him. She asked him to please stay in town.... At the hospital, Olivia sadly informed Neil that the cancer spread and they had to remove all of Lily's reproductive organs.

Deacon told Amber that she only has a short while to decide if she's willing to sleep with him to save Daniel.... At the jail, Daniel hoped he could find out who set him up to go to prison. He told Jana that the only thing getting him through it was his love for Amber and that he wanted to ask her to marry him when he got out.... Without giving him the actual details of her situation, Amber asked Kevin for advice about Daniel. Kevin warned her that whatever she's planning to do to get Daniel out of jail could backfire.... After, Amber visited Daniel. He was confident that he wouldn't be in jail for long, but Amber wasn't so sure. He asked her to not do anything that will get herself into trouble, then told Amber that he's ready for a commitment with her. They declared their love for each other. Amber reminded him that everything she does, she does for Daniel.... Jana and Kevin hoped Amber wouldn't do something crazy, but didn't have much faith in their friend..... Later, Amber stopped by Deacon's hotel suite. He instructed her to put on a sexy, purple nightgown. She reluctantly agreed. Deacon called the jail pretending to be Michael and asked to speak with Daniel; he then put the phone down, but didn't hang up. He commanded Amber to turn around so he could look at her in her lingerie and stroked her face. Deacon kissed her and asked if she missed that, then pulled her onto the bed..... At the jail, Daniel got a call; when he picked up, he heard Deacon and Amber hitting the sheets, with Amber begging Deacon not to let Daniel find out.
