BIG SHOCKING! Amanda discovers terrible secret about Damian’s death – revealing suspect’s identity Y&R Spoilers

The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Monday’s Episode Erupts in Romance, Revenge, and Murder in Nice

The idyllic backdrop of Nice, France, becomes the setting for one of The Young and the Restless’ most dramatic episodes in recent memory. What begins as romantic tension and emotional posturing quickly devolves into betrayal, manipulation, and a gruesome attack that leaves one man dying in the arms of his former rival.

Monday’s episode is a whirlwind of confrontations, bold declarations, and a chilling mystery that promises to ignite a full-blown murder investigation. Here’s your complete breakdown of all the shocking events.

Billy Hunts for Answers — But Phyllis Plays Hardball

Billy Abbott isn’t one to stand idly by, and this week, he’s laser-focused on Cain Ashby. Convinced that Cain’s motives go beyond business, Billy corners Phyllis Summers in hopes of extracting intel about Cain’s next move.

But Phyllis is as slippery as ever.

Instead of giving Billy the answers he wants, she reminds him that Cain is the one with the money, power, and strategic advantage. She toys with him, playing mental chess while keeping her real loyalties cloaked in mystery. Frustrated but undeterred, Billy is left with more questions than answers as Phyllis coolly walks away, her secrets still safely locked away.

Meanwhile, Nick Newman and Sharon Rosales also try to intervene. They warn Phyllis that cozying up to Cain is a risky bet—especially if he falls. Nick, in particular, is worried that Phyllis will go down with the ship. But Phyllis, stubborn and defiant, isn’t ready to back away.

Romantic Shockwaves: Lily Declares Her Love for Damian

Elsewhere in Nice, tension hits a fever pitch as Cain and Amanda Sinclair unexpectedly cross paths with Lily Winters and Damian Cain. What should have been a simple run-in quickly becomes emotionally charged.

Lily and Damian are openly flirtatious, their romantic chemistry undeniable. The final blow comes when Cain—struggling to mask his jealousy—asks if they’re officially together. Lily, confident and composed, answers without hesitation:

Yes. They are.

Cain is visibly shaken. Despite his promise to stay out of her love life, it’s clear that Lily’s public declaration cuts deep. The woman he once loved is slipping away, and this trip seems to be sealing the deal. Desperate for closure—or perhaps more—Cain asks for a private conversation with Damian, while Amanda pulls Lily aside for one of her own.

Amanda questions whether Lily is using Damian to push Cain away emotionally. But Lily insists her feelings are real. She turns the table, subtly pressing Amanda about Cain’s true motives. Amanda, ever loyal to her boss, defends him. But her unease is beginning to show.

Later, Nick has his own moment with Amanda. He questions her unwavering loyalty to Cain, especially considering the red flags others are starting to see. Amanda listens, but whether she’s reconsidering her stance remains uncertain.

Cain and Damian’s Truce Takes a Deadly Turn

In a secluded corner of the estate, Cain and Damian attempt a civil conversation. Cain opens an expensive bottle of wine, pouring two glasses—one for himself and one for Damian.

The tone is tense but cordial. Cain tells Damian that if Lily truly wants to be with him, he’ll step aside. But there’s a warning embedded in his words: Don’t waste this chance. Don’t hurt her.

Damian takes a long drink. Moments later, he clutches his stomach and sinks to a bench, accusing Cain of poisoning him. Cain is stunned—he drank from the same bottle. But then Cain starts to feel the effects, too. His vision blurs. The world spins.

Suddenly, from the shadows, a masked figure emerges.

Before either man can act, the intruder lunges forward and stabs Damian in the back. The blade sinks deep. Damian gasps, collapsing. Cain catches him instinctively, horror overtaking confusion. Blood flows freely as Cain screams for help—but they’re too far from the others.

Phyllis’s Shocking Discovery Amid the Chaos

Elsewhere on the estate, Phyllis is lost in the maze-like property, where she runs into Jack Abbott and Diane Jenkins. Frustrated and disoriented, Phyllis separates from them to try another path out. But what she stumbles upon is more terrifying than anything she expected.

She emerges from the maze and freezes.

In front of her: Cain, holding Damian’s limp body, blood staining both their clothes. The scene is horrific, surreal. Damian’s eyes flutter shut, his breathing shallow. The knife still juts from his back.

Phyllis stands frozen in place, her face a mask of shock as she tries to comprehend what just happened.

The Aftermath: A Murder Mystery Begins

What was meant to be a glamorous, emotionally fraught getaway has turned deadly. Damian’s fate hangs in the balance. Cain, once a wealthy power player on a mission of redemption, now finds himself at the center of a murder scene.

But questions swirl:

• Was the wine bottle poisoned—or was it all a setup?

• Who is the masked attacker—and what is their motive?

• Did Phyllis walk into a tragedy… or a carefully staged trap?

• Can Cain prove his innocence, or will suspicion crush him before the truth surfaces?

As Phyllis screams for help and others race to the scene, the peaceful ambiance of Nice is shattered by violence and betrayal. The ripple effects of this night will reverberate through Genoa City and beyond.

What’s Next on The Young and the Restless?

This deadly twist is only the beginning. In the episodes to come, expect:

• An international investigation with Cain at the center.

• New evidence emerging about who wanted Damian dead—and why.

• Lily facing an emotional crucible as she tries to reconcile her grief with the sudden chaos.

• Amanda confronting the limits of her loyalty.

• Nick and Sharon digging into Cain’s dealings—and possibly uncovering a conspiracy.

Phyllis, caught between what she saw and what she believes, may become the case’s most critical witness—or its most vulnerable target.

Stay tuned. The murder mystery in Nice is just heating up—and in classic Y&R fashion, no one is safe from the fallout.
