Young And The Restless Recap Friday, March 1: Mariah Called To The Stand – Summer Awaits Organ Donor Results

“The Young and the Restless” (YR) recap for Friday, March 1, 2019 reveals that over in the courtroom, Sharon McAvoy (Sharon Case), Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott), and Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) whisper about Brittany Hodges (Lauren Woodland) and Michael Baldwin’s (Christain LeBlanc) chances against Christine Williams (Lauralee Bell).

Brittany pulls Sharon aside to warn her not to act chummy with the Newmans – their strategy relies on it. She advises her to let Victoria and Nikki take the hit or they’ll all go down together. Meanwhile, Michael tells the Newman women they haven’t given him much to work with, but he’ll fight for them every step of the way.

After, Nikki wants Victoria to stick to her story that Nikki fought J.T. Hellstrom (Thad Luckinbill) in the park. Outside, Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) complains to Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) about Phyllis Summers (Gina Tognoni) throwing the others to the wolves, and warns they need to get her out as CEO.

Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway) appears, followed by Summer. Abby updates them that a donor is Lola’s only hope and worries that Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) can’t lose anyone else in his life.

Young And The Restless – Billy Tries To Reason With Christine

In the courtroom, Billy Abbott approaches Christine Williams and tells her Lily Ashby’s (Christel Khalil) not the same woman in prison and questions what it accomplishes. Christine counters if you take someone’s life you can’t go on as usual; she’s speaking for the victims.

Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) arrives and sits at the back. Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) doesn’t trust her. Meanwhile, Kerry Johnson (Alice Hunter) arrives to join Jack Abbott, Nick takes a tense call from Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), and Billy checks on Nikki Newman and Victoria Newman. Nikki’s worried there will be more bombshells.

Outside, Summer Newman (Hunter King) tells Abby Newman she’s going somewhere. Abby assumes she has a mani-pedi. Summer doesn’t correct her. Nearby, Jack Abbott and Billy Abbott whisper about Kerry Johnson’s allegiance to Phyllis Summers. Jack says it will be up to Kerry if she gets on board – she’s very important to him. Billy asks, “As important as Jabot?”

Young And The Restless – Mariah Called To The Stand

Court proceedings continue and Christine calls Mariah to the stand. Mariah testifies about the girls’ night – Sharon organized it to support Victoria, and after she passed out, she went upstairs where Sharon told her they were purging the closet. Christine wants to know what was going on in the bedroom that was so important Sharon stayed. She’s overruled.

Chris next introduces the video of the women putting the rug containing J.T. Hellstrom’s body in the trunk. She grills Mariah to no avail, but Michael tells Mariah she isn’t done. He cross-examines and asks for the real story about how Mariah came to see the video.

At the Club, Ana Hamilton (Loren Lott) impresses Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) with her budget as they talk about marketing. She checks in on his anxiety. He concedes visiting Lola Rosales (Sasha Calle) brought back difficult memories, but he knows now he can feel things without having to shove them away or numb them.

They spot Kyle Abbott and invite him over. He informs them time is running out for Lola. Devon Hamilton offers to help, and Kyle says the only thing Lola needs is a liver donor. Devon and Ana head to the hospital to be tested.

Young And The Restless – Kyle Is Not An Organ Match

At the hospital, Nate Hastings (Brooks Darnell) checks with Devon Hamilton before he and Ana Hamilton go to be tested. Kyle Abbott tells Nate he’s not a match – he made Lola a playlist – that’s how useful he is to Lola right now. Nate urges him to play it.

After Devon and Ana are tested, she teases him about dating, then apologizes. Devon reassures her, but he doesn’t see how anybody could follow Hilary. He asks about Ana. She tried the couple thing once and needs time. Talk turns to her new lyrics and making money – she still has debt from her past. They walk off and Kyle emerges from Lola’s room.

Summer Newman appears – she wants to take a blood test to see if she’s the one who can save Lola. Kyle doesn’t show the appreciation she’d hoped for, so they bicker. Summer hates seeing him like this and just wants to help. Kyle decides it’s great she’s willing to get tested. Summer goes off and Nate confirms to Kyle that the more people getting tested the better.

Soon, Devon and Ana report they’re not a match, but will work to get the word out. Summer and Nate reappear. As Kyle paces, Summer asks Nate if she’s a match, how dangerous is the surgery? And that’s a wrap. Don’t forget to check often with Soap Opera Spy for all your soap needs!
