Meanwhile, Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) asks Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc) if she and Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) should take the stand. Michael says Christine Williams (Lauralee Bell) will eviscerate them if they went on the stand because they lied. His goal is to have them both acquitted.

At Nick Newman’s (Joshua Morrow), Summer Newman (Hunter King) tells Nick she knows all about girls’ night at Victoria Newman’s, and that she understands why they did what they did. She also understands why Phyllis Summers (Gina Tognoni) went to the district attorney, and wants Nick to understand too. But he doesn’t want to hear another word.

Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), Billy and Jack arrive in court to offer support. Jack says it’s at times like these that family matters most. Summer Newman arrives with Nick Newman. Nick tells Sharon  that Faith Newman (Alyvia Alyn Lind) sends her love. Then, Christine  arrives in court while everyone gives her disapproving stares.

Christine makes her opening statement, telling the jury that Nikki Newman killed J.T. Hellstrom (Thad Luckinbill) and the others conspired to conceal his death. She says she’ll show the jury the video of Nikki, Victoria and Sharon  rolling his body up in a rug and burying the body. She says J.T. was no angel but nobody deserves to die that way, rolled up and dumped in a park.

Young And The Restless – Victor’s Courtroom Outburst

Victor stands up and says that’s an “egregious misconstruction of the facts.” The judge calls for order. Victor says Christine has a vendetta against the Newman family. Then the judge asks for Victor to leave the courtroom. Christine tells the jury that Newman privilege shouldn’t allow them to get away with murder.

Brittany then addresses the jury, asking them to consider Sharon’s case on its own merit. Then it’s Michael’s turn. He says when he’s finished he will prove the facts from the prosecution are pure conjecture and the case is based solely on Phyllis Summers’ testimony, which was turned in  exchange for immunity and freedom.

Michael says the video doesn’t prove J.T.’s death, or that they were moving a body. Michael asks the jury to keep this in mind – there isn’t enough evidence that J.T. is even dead, because there is no body. The judge orders a recess before the prosecution’s first witness.

Sharon tells Brittany she’s worried about Mariah and wishes she hadn’t been dragged into this. Nick asks Michael what he thinks so far and he says they’re facing an uphill battle.
