I caught a glimpse of Thomas in the cage at the end of my Young and Restless recording and I opted not to watch the actual episode.

I watched Fridays episode finally. Why isn’t Thomas bargaining with Justin? Agreeing to take down Bill with him.  I hope this cage thing is over soon.

....Thomas in a cage?

 

Is this meant to be throwback to Y&R when Lisa Mansfield locked Brad Carlton in a cage in her house?

Justin wants to take over Spencer publications. Thomas has the evidence on his phone to get Liam out of jail and he showed Justin who punched him out at Forrester and somehow got him into a cage in the basement of Spencer. (I don’t know how he did that without security noticing anything) Justin is evil now after years of being Bills yes man. Wyatt will probably figure things out, hopefully he doesn’t end up in the cage too.
I did think of Brad Carlton! Maybe it’s a nod to that story.

I was going to skip today’s episode but Quinn was on asking Eric for a vow renewal. Eric called Carter over to officiate. What more could Quinn want, her lover performing her vow renewal to her husband?

Man as much as I hate the terrible build up and how it’s gonna ruin the character,  I LOVE revenge seeking Justin! Of course Aaron Spears will show what a great actor he really is once Bradley shows him the door. 
 

If Thomas starts parading around half or fully naked it really will be like Brad locked in the cage or even Shawn Douglas locked in the cage on Days.

The Brad story is the quintessential cage story but it has been done manytime.

Wasn't Sheila-as-Phyllis keeping the real Phyllis in a cage too on Y&R? Or was it Sheila in the cage? I don't remember - blocked that mess out of my memory.

Still wondering how Justin was able to drag Thomas’ unconscious body out of Forrester and down into Spencer without anybody seeing him

The same way Vinny knew that Liam would be driving Bill's car at that exact time.  STUPID!

[Chatty Cakes]

I don’t mind a vengeful Justin, we could certainly use a change of pace. They just kind of brought it out of nowhere and like someone mentioned the character is most likely ruined. 

[FrenchBug82]

I like when people were like "Carter slept with a married woman; he is RUINED!"

Bell was like: "Hold your horses. Let me show you RUINED".

 Justin said “hold my beer”

Carter can come out of his predicament just fine other than the awkwardness of performing his lovers vowel renewal to his boss. I really hope Carter is here long term. It’s way overdue for him to have a decent story.

Hold up! A man in a cage!?!

 

How DAYS.

I think B&B finds both of them expendable. Even taking into account the horrid writing for Brad’s pets like Liam and Hope, they’ve barely shown any interest in each character for years. And, barring a late-in-life Quinn pregnancy, it’s unlikely Carter will get much story out of this. 
 

Agreed that adultery is the far lesser crime. Soap characters cheat, even the “good” ones.

[FrenchBug82]

In all fairness, barring the Core Four (Stephanie being dead) and the Infernal H/L/S triangle, B&B is very very infamous for treating EVERY character as expendable. Not the best show for job security.

[Faulkner]

No. It’s just interesting to me that the two black sidekicks to the core families have similar stories, even if the magnitude is different. A curious coincidence for two barely-there characters.
