The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Nikki Mothering Tessa – Dreamer or Schemer At the Ranch?

Tessa (Cait Fairbanks) appears to be a poor soul on ‘The Young and the Restless’. Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) certainly thinks so, which is why she’s taken this young lady under her wing. But seasoned minds wonder what this new character’s hidden agenda might be, if there is one?

Nikki happened upon Tessa when she was quite literally singing for supper money outside of Crimson Lights.

Mrs. Newman’s find was soapy for sure, as it served to establish the connection between these characters. From there the link to Reed (Tristan Lake Leabu) was made.

The Reed-Tessa link boosted ‘Open Mic Night’, which also allowed Noah (Robert Adamson) to potentially gain a new love interest. Summer romance at The Underground seems more likely than not in this instance.

It’s true what Nick (Joshua Morrow) told his mom a few weeks ago. She is filling a void by taking Tessa in. However, compassion should often be evidenced in daytime to make it more realistic and this character, Nikki, is surely compensating for the bitter manner in which she’s chosen to treat her husband.

Victor (Eric Braeden) has been suspicious of Tessa from the jump. Add to that, Nikki banishing him to the guest house. Yes, the ‘Moustache’ thinks that his wife swapped him for a perceived protege.

Y&R’s golden age included Katherine (Jeanne Cooper) mentoring a very young and naive Nicole Newman, as she was introduced into Genoa City society. Nikki has been open about the historical connection between then and now. At the same time she’s also genuine offering Tessa an opportunity.

As long as the unknown person Tessa has been speaking to on her smartphone doesn’t prove to be some type of Newman enemy, with her as an enabler in some dark plan, the current storyline will prove to be endearing. This scribe likes Fairbanks’ acting range and the freshness her particular character is offering. Here’s hoping that Y&R’s writing team sees Tessa as a key part of Nikki’s world indefinitely.
