Regarding the spoiler photos upthread of the creepy old man that Mariah is having flashbacks about... Since the flashbacks were shown in black-and-white, I first thought that the color photos were new for something later in the week.. But these color photos are labeled for Monday June 9, U.S. I now see that the flashbacks are primarily in black-and-white, with split-second fade-in and fade-out of the full color. The color is barely noticeable. These might be photos of the original taping in color, -- when they were taping footage to be later edited to be black-and-white with the fading in and out of glimpses of color?

Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.

Conner Floyd IG stories June 7, 2025 That might be a clue, or it might be a random post. I remember a few years ago, Conner Floyd posted a photograph of a Crimson Lights menu, which had details. ** (It showed sandwiches and salads, which I never heard of Crimson Lights selling.) So I wondered back then if it was a spoiler that Sharon or her manager was going to make a change, but this menu was never seen or discussed onscreen. I guess he just thought it was an interesting prop? Re: this new photo -- either there's a change coming, or it's an old prop. It almost looks like nice linen for a table setting. Could this be for the Dumas event?

24 photos two at DiMera mansion (Rachel & Brady Black) one at the square (Arianna and Tate) two at the pub (Roman/Kayla/Steve) and 19 photos at the funeral https://soaphub.com/days-of-our-lives/spoilers-days/preview-johns-memorial-begins-plus-shane-returns/

I do believe that Billy Flynn has the ability to play a powerful yet debonair brilliant businessman, so Billy Flynn is likely "Aristotle Dumas". I just don't know Dumas' real name. As I said on another thread, I would have loved for Amanda (or resurrected Hillary) to be the real Dumas. With Billy Flynn playing a rival.

My thoughts on some of the possible rumors/spumors/spoilers There was a "Cane" name on a hanger in wardrobe. Well it said "CA...." (the end was obscured) but it looked like "CANE" but it's not absolutely clear. Possibilities to explain the name on the hanger: Dumas is a pseudonym for a recast Cane or there is a Cane recast, who is a separate character from Dumas or they cast someone to play Cane temporarily or they cast someone to play Cane only in flashbacks. Or the name on the hanger that starts with "CA" is actually another character. For months, the assumption has been that Billy Flynn is playing Dumas. Now the speculation is that Billy Flynn is Dumas who is actually Cane. The only other sign pointing to Cane is that Damian asked Lily about her husbands recently and she told him about Daniel and Cane, and she said Cane broke her heart. The running wild speculation is that Cane is doing some grand gesture as Dumas in order to impress Lily. I think that's ridiculous; but I'm listing all the theories, and that's one theory. There is also a theory (despite the enormous age discrepancy) that Dumas is a pseudonym for Tucker. I don't agree with that one, but I'm also listing it with all the theories here. _____________________________________________ 1) Why on earth would Victor Newman or Jack Abbott care about lowlife Cane? 2) Is it really possible that con artist Cane has become a mysterious billionaire? 3) If Dumas is really Cane, why doesn't the all-knowing Victor know this? 4) If Dumas and Cane are the same person, then the show has completely changed the character to fit the plot, making Cane into some powerful yet debonair brilliant businessman. Total rewrite. _____________________________________________ Since they are going to all this trouble to cast Billy Flynn on Y&R, then I doubt that his character will be murdered (regardless of whatever character he's playing, they wouldn't kill him off this soon.) If Cane and Dumas are two separate people, then I could believe the show might kill off Cane, but then again, why would anyone bother about Cane? So, I have no idea who will be murdered. _____________________________________________ End of my thoughts.

Oh wow. After reading your post, I realized that they had "Carl Ivati" in the script AGAIN yesterday June 6. Eva said she was reading his latest, and Tomas said "Work's been so busy, I haven't had time to get into his new series". Then Eva proceeds to tell him that "the first book is called 'Mercy and Goodness' and it's all about how the couple first met and how they got separated". She goes on and on about how great it is. And she says she has the book in her hotel room if he wants to borrow it. She says it has twists and turns. And meanwhile Kat is snooping in Eva's room to look for the helmet and gloves, and finds the book and dismisses it as "basic". I saw that whole scene -- but I wasn't paying attention to the name of the author. And when Tomas said the name, I heard it in his accent so I didn't hear "carlivati". II was mainly trying to see if the acting had improved with the actor playing Tomas, and I think he has improved somewhat. I only see it when typed out. So they had several scenes yesterday about a "Carl Ivati" book? Barf! Well at least Kat had the good sense to dismiss it as "basic". Ron Carlivati wrote the breakdown yesterday! Featuring himself in it! Addressing to the collective "you" whoever you may be: Some of you, months ago, said Oh Ron is only doing breakdowns. The story comes from MVJ, so he won't influence things, you said. May 27 started it, with Christopher Dunn breakdown and Lynn Martin script. But they didn't need to continue it June 6 with Carlivati breakdown and Jazmen Darnell Brown script.

Yeah that's likely the case and it will all be awful.

A few more funeral pics https://michaelfairmantv.com/days-of-our-lives-preview-john-black-funeral-drake-hogestyn/2025/06/07/ I don't see Jack, Jennifer, Anna, or Will in any of the funeral photos? but we know they are there. Thaao Penghlis had tweeted that his return is June 12, so maybe Tony will be with Anna at the wake?

A batch of photos from Episode #67 which aired Thursday June 5 in USA. Some are scene pictures, and some are behind-the-scenes. https://www.paramountpressexpress.com/cbs-entertainment/shows/beyond-the-gates/photos?episode=25710 Posting because there's a pic of director Michael V. Pomarico; and a pic of director Steven Williford whose photo caption says "J. Steven Williford".

Michelle Stafford instagram dated June 7, 2025, https://www.instagram.com/p/DKmt3Bxx0gU/ She posted a video she said was from "yesterday" (June 6), in which the cast and crew were eating donuts for National Donut Day. Stafford says that they've been working very long hours recently. Video primarily in the hair-and-make-up room and in the hallways. (I couldn't see what sets were up, but maybe I missed something.) If Billy Flynn was there, I didn't see him. Susan Walters was there but in her own clothes, so no Diane wardrobe spoilers. Peter Bergman was wearing a nice white shirt, but I couldn't see what else he was wearing. The spoiler is that Mishael Morgan was there, so she's still taping. (Mishael was wearing her own clothes, so no Amanda wardrobe spoilers.)

I think the gross ickiness is Josh Griffith's intention. At birth, Ian Ward stole Mariah from Sharon, so that Sharon knew only of the Cassie twin and not the Mariah twin. Sharon gave up Cassie for adoption at birth, never knowing that Mariah existed. When Ian Ward stole baby Mariah, he had her be raised by a woman member of his cult. She grew up in his cult. Years later, after Mariah was an adult in Genoa City and had left him, he tried to kidnap her to marry him himself, I sort of remember some icky scenes where he had arranged a wedding, but she escaped or was rescued -- it was so gross that I chose to forget it, and I don't want to look up the details. Mariah is feeling traumatized/triggered by Ian Ward being in Genoa City several months ago, because he was obsessed with her, and he terrorized her loved ones, interacted with Tessa, and drugged Sharon, which ultimately resulted in the death of Heather -- causing the grief of Daniel and Lucy. None of that was Mariah's fault. But she was so horrified by what happened, that she feels she did something wrong that caused this hateful villain to continue to obsess about her. Based on small comments that Mariah made recently, I think she feels completely worthless. I gather that when she was away on the business trip a month or two ago, all of what happened with Ian Ward and Heather's death just hit her all at once and she was mentally/emotionally collapsing, and just felt unable to call for help. During the business trip she sat in her hotel room and spiraled more, feeling more and more worthless and afraid. Finally she started drinking at a bar, and that's when the creepy old man approached her. By that point, she wasn't in her right mind, and started interacting with the guy. Either she thought he was Ian, or she thought he was someone like Ian, and she would be *required* to flirt with him in a role play, and do what he commanded, almost like old programming being reactivated. Or perhaps just simple self-loathing playing out. I don't know if the guy actually knew Ian or Jordan, or if he was a random stranger. But Mariah's fear/loathing/subconscious chaos kicked in. And then... well that's as far as her flashbacks have aired so far. She can't bear to face the rest of whatever it was. I gather that in the coming episodes, we'll (eventually) find out what happened next as we see more of the icky flashbacks. --------------- The rest of this post is only my speculation: I think that she felt like she was supposed to have sex with him but didn't want to, and may have tried to kill him instead. Or he r*ped her. Or they didn't have sex at all, but it's all convoluted in her mind. Something horrible happened but I don't think it was her fault. If the man died, maybe she covered it up? I really don't know, I'm just speculating ideas. At any rate, I'm totally convinced that this is NOT a conventional "cheating storyline" where someone willingly has sex outside their relationship. ----------------- This is basically Josh Griffith's obsession with dark storylines, creepy villains, and terrible writing of "mental health issues".

A peek at the "Dumas" set in "France". The two gentlemen in black shirts were visiting the Y&R and B&B sets and CBS Television City -- as guests of a Y&R crewperson. This pic is from the visitor IG account (Link) Uploaded to IG on June 6, 2025, but the photo may have been taken any time in the past week or two. This shows that this "France" set is/was being used for quite some time. That fits with the Dumas invitation mentioning an "extended stay".

omg I completely missed that, but now when I see it typed here in your post, it's obvious icky cringe. So now I just checked and Tomas said that -- on May 27 that he likes the author Carl Ivati. He said it with sort of an accent, so I didn't catch the stupid joke or think about the spelling. I remember when that aired, that I actually said to myself at the time, "I wonder if that's a Latin American author, and I will have to google him later." And now I see your post, and I see. Well that's cringe, and I feel stupid to have fallen for it.

It's real and it's current. Joshua Morrow recorded this Cameo for Mothers Day 2025. Mothers Day 2025 was May 9th. He would probably have recorded it a few days early, so that the purchaser would be able to send it to the intended recipient in time. Link to the original: https://www.cameo.com/joshuamorrow/feed/681c26a59d1dd2086390ddc8 "I'm just sitting here at work, waiting to go on. We've been shooting this massive story, this murder mystery extravaganza thing. And uh, long hours, *LONG* hours - but we're just digging in, you know, just making it happen, and um, you know, just grinding. Because that's what we do on The Young and The Restless. You want to be on the Number One show, it's what you do, you work your tail off."

Above, I said "Vanessa needs to go to therapy to find ways to remain healthfully lusty and sex-positive, but to stay away from anyone who would demean her." Now adding onto that thought, I would clarify that sometimes I think Vanessa fools around for fun in a positive way. But other times I sense that she's actually unconsciously trying to demean herself as way of numbing some inner pain -- it's hard to explain what I mean. Sort of like... sometimes people drink for fun. But other times, people drink in a self-destructive way, in order to drown out some inner pain. So I think she needs therapy about all of that.
