Episode #12779 (Season 51, Episode 64)
Sharon relies on the past to make a decision about her future.

This is a Sharon stand-alone episode.
https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/sharon-case-previews-young-and-restlesss-sharon-centric-show/
Sharon has a dream because is deciding about her future – Crimson Lights, her Kirsten company, and whatever is happening (or not happening) with Chance.

Sharon Case says: “This was really written like a dream where it goes from one wild thing to another and sometimes it’s quite non sequitur. The vignettes I was doing with the other characters, you would never imagine in a million years. It was just some really fun, off-the-wall stuff. We all had a great time with it.”

Where is Lily anyway?

With Heather back, they should bring back Stacy Haiduk on contract as Patty.

• Brooke is disappointed by Ridge’s love once again in 2024. Meanwhile someone will have a surprising epiphany

I AM LAUGHING OUT LOUD.

Predictions/spoilers from SoapDirt
Heather puts the moves on Daniel now that Lily is away

Christel Khalil is on maternity leave. Her baby is/was due in December, but if she has given birth, it has not yet been announced.  

In June 2023, CK announced her pregnancy.

Also, meanwhile, in summer 2023 Michael was working as Phyllis' attorney.
But suddenly Christian LeBlanc got sick so they wrote it into the show that Michael suddenly had to go to Singapore to rescue Gloria which seemed odd, until CLB announced months later that he was being treated for cancer.

So what the show did was write in Heather as Phyllis' emergency replacement attorney.  The character Heather was already written as living in Portugal and visiting Genoa City occasionally.  So when CLB got sick and CK announced her pregnancy, the show gradually brought Heather onto the canvas with more visits to Genoa City.

 

And then about a month or two ago, Heather decided to leave Portugal and move back to Genoa City, which was clearly timed to be in place before CK's leave.   

They wrote CK's leave as Lily helping her daughter Matttie. Mattie attends an out-of-state university, and there was a wildfire on campus and one of Mattie's teachers died, and Mattie is traumatized (all of which was told via offscreen phonecalls).  So Lily went to stay with Mattie for a while and is taking a temporary leave of absence from Chancellor-Winters.

The show announced when Vail Bloom first returned [in early 2023] that she would appear for a few episodes as Heather, to help with introducing teenaged Lucy Romalotti to the canvas.    But the situations with CLB and CK seemed to have caused the show to bring in Heather more fully.

Thank you for the info! I love Vail Bloom as Heather so I’m glad her role has been increased.

That wildfire story is odd. Why not say Mattie was injured and needed rehab? Just being upset about a teacher hardly seems reason to stay away for months.

a) Mattie started the fire.
b) She was in love with the teacher.
c) She is a psycho.
d) None of the above.
e) All of the above.
f) Another Josh Griffith random idea that means nothing.

Monday, January 8, 2024 on CBS
(Fri. Jan. 5 on Global-Canada)
Brian Gaskill's debut as "Seth" who is Nikki's AA sponsor.
Previous articles said he'd be someone she encounters at AA.  But that's misleading because she'd already met him offscreen a while back.  Per the dialog of Jan 5 Canada broadcast: Nikki met him offscreen in the past, and he's been her offscreen sponsor for a while. He appears onscreen in this episode because she requested to meet him at a restaurant to talk. 

(Earlier in that episode, she started to take a drink but stopped herself before drinking anything, and called her sponsor instead. She hadn't called him in a while but now needed to.).

The spoiler for that episode is "Victor questions Nikki's sobriety."  But that's just because Victor walks into the restaurant before her sponsor leaves, so Nikki introduces them.  After Seth leaves, Victor wants to know why she never mentioned Seth to him, and Nikki replies, you know, anonymity.  Really!  And then Victor is upset that she's struggling enough that she needs to see her sponsor.
