The Young and the Restless Full Episode Recap - Monday, March 3, 2025

Secrets, Lies, and Abbott Drama Explodes


If you thought The Young and the Restless was going to give you a slow Monday, think again. This episode had everything: backstabbing, family drama, and enough secrets to fill an entire season. From Lily pulling out her detective skills to dig up dirt on Damian, to Jack side-eyeing Phyllis’ involvement in Abbott Communications, there was no shortage of tension. Meanwhile, Sally is trying her best to play the perfect hostess, but Diane and Jack are not exactly buying it. Let’s dive into the full episode recap and break down all the delicious drama.

Sally’s Domestic Dreams Get a Reality Check

Sally is on a mission to impress Billy and their dinner guests, Jack and Diane. She’s fluffed the pillows, dimmed the lights—basically, she’s trying to prove she’s got this domestic goddess thing down. But let’s be real, Diane and Jack aren’t exactly rolling out the red carpet for her. They’re more concerned about the major construction happening outside their home, and the thought of bunking at the club is not thrilling them. The Abbott remodel is turning into its own dramatic saga.

Speaking of awkward vibes, Sally’s attempts to help only make things worse, and Diane isn’t about to let her get away with it. “We can change it back to the dated museum if you don’t like it,” Diane quips, leaving Sally grasping for a comeback. Ouch.

Billy, being the ever-loyal boyfriend, tries to lighten the mood by raising a toast, but even that can’t distract from the real issue: his decision to involve Phyllis in Abbott Communications.

Lily Plays Detective – And Nate Is Not Having It

Over at Winters, Lily, Devon, and Nate are in celebration mode. They just landed a massive deal, thanks to Lily, and everything seems great—until she drops a bombshell about Damian. Turns out, she’s been digging, and what she’s found isn’t looking good.

Lily reveals that Aristotle Dumas—yes, the Aristotle Dumas—actually owns the companies Damian is running. Translation? Damian’s entire success story might be built on a lie. Nate is not thrilled that Lily had a PI snooping into his half-brother’s business.

Things escalate when Nate finds out Victor was Lily’s source. Because, of course, Victor Newman is somehow involved. The man has a hand in everything. Nate warns Lily to back off, but she isn’t so sure. If Damian finds out he’s being investigated, there’s a good chance he’ll leave town before making amends with Amy. And guess what? Lily is not about to let that happen.

Amy and Damian’s Emotional Reunion (And A Bombshell of Their Own)

While the Abbott and Winters families are dealing with their own messes, Amy and Damian are trying to sort through decades of unresolved issues. Damian is still bitter about their fractured relationship, but they share a rare tender moment reminiscing about Jackson, a stray cat that once brought them together.

Then comes the real shocker: Damian learns that the man he thought was his biological father… wasn’t. Talk about a life-changing revelation. Amy, who has been carrying this secret for years, finally confesses that when her husband Nathan died, it felt like a burden was lifted. And with her terminal diagnosis looming over her, she felt the need to finally tell Damian the truth.

Damian is reeling. His entire past just got rewritten, and now he has to figure out what it all means. He’s also starting to get curious about Nate and his extended family, which could lead to even more drama down the road.

Jack’s Toast to Billy Comes with a Warning

Meanwhile, at the Abbott household, emotions are running high. Jack delivers a heartfelt toast to Billy, expressing how proud he is of him. But Diane, never one to hold back, brings up the elephant in the room—Phyllis. Is it really a good idea to have her involved in Abbott Communications?

Billy is standing firm on his decision, but Jack isn’t convinced. He warns his brother: Phyllis is not known for playing by the rules. Keep your eyes open.

Diane, always ready to back up her husband, doubles down. Anything involving Phyllis will end in disaster, she insists. Even Sally, who usually keeps her opinions to herself when it comes to Billy’s business, quietly agrees.

Then Billy says something that raises even more eyebrows. He suspects something is going on with Phyllis. And from the look on his face, it’s not just a hunch—it’s full-blown concern.

Nate Sets Boundaries – But Will Lily Listen?

Back at Winters, the tension between Nate and Lily is at an all-time high. Nate is furious that Lily went to Victor for information on Damian. To make matters worse, he’s questioning why his PI didn’t uncover what Lily did.

Nate lays down the law: if she wants to respect him, she needs to respect his boundaries. Is she clear?

Lily nods, but let’s be honest—she’s not about to let this go. The Damian situation is far from over, and Lily is determined to figure out exactly what he’s hiding.

Damian Has Some Questions of His Own

Amy’s confession has shaken Damian to his core, and now he’s starting to question everything—especially his connection to Nate. Amy reassures him that Nate’s a good man, but Damian wants to know more about the Winters family.

As Damian starts putting the pieces together, one thing is clear: he’s not done digging into his own past. And if what Lily uncovered is just the beginning, the real drama is only just getting started.

Jack and Diane Predict a Phyllis Disaster – And They’re Probably Right

Jack and Diane are wrapping up their night at the club, and Jack is trying to stay optimistic. He wants Billy to succeed. He wants Abbott Communications to thrive.

But let’s be real—this is Phyllis we’re talking about. Diane doesn’t hesitate to remind Jack that anything Phyllis touches is destined to go down in flames. And from the look on Jack’s face, he knows she’s probably right.

Final Thoughts: The Drama is Just Heating Up

This Y&R recap proves once again that The Young and the Restless knows how to keep us on our toes. Damian’s true parentage is out in the open, but that’s just the beginning of his story. Lily is playing detective, but she may have bitten off more than she can chew. And Billy? He might be in way over his head with Phyllis—again.

One thing’s for sure: the Abbott family drama isn’t slowing down anytime soon. And with Victor lurking in the shadows, you know the chaos is far from over. Buckle up, Y&R fans. It’s about to get wild.
