Phyllis thinks her deal with Victor changes everything — and she’s right. But the fallout could take down Jack, Jabot, and her own future along with it.
In the October 28, 2025, episode of The Young and the Restless, Phyllis crossed a line that can never be uncrossed when she handed Victor Cane’s stolen AI — a move that gives the Mustache the absolute power to take down Jabot from the inside out. With one deal, she positioned herself as Victor’s most valuable weapon and Jack’s most dangerous enemy.
Key Takeaways
- Phyllis steals Cane’s AI and hands it to Victor.
- Victor plans a strategic, deeply personal assault on Jabot.
- Jack realizes the betrayal could cost him everything.
- The threat of a controlled corporate collapse is now real.
- Phyllis believes she’ll benefit — but she may be Victor’s next casualty.
Phyllis Seizes Control of the Game
For months, Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) played both sides — Cane’s (Billy Flynn) protégé on the surface, but always keeping her true intentions hidden. Now the mask is off. She delivered the AI directly into Victor’s (Eric Braeden) hands, proving she is the architect of this corporate coup, not the pawn.
She wasn’t there to beg. She demanded power, security, and a seat beside Victor in the winner’s circle. The deal struck with a single understanding: Victor will weaponize the AI, but Phyllis wants something to show for her betrayal.

She believes she’s finally outsmarted every enemy she’s ever had. The reality is far more dangerous.
Jack Is Now the Target — and He Knows It
Jack (Peter Bergman) has feared this exact moment: Victor gaining access to cutting-edge tech that can dismantle a company from within before anyone even notices. And now, thanks to Phyllis, that moment has arrived.
