On the February 27 episode of The Young and the Restless, Sharon and Phyllis found themselves in an even more precarious situation.
Their mysterious captor forced them to make phone calls to their loved ones, reassuring them that they were safe—even though that was far from the truth.
As their families temporarily stopped searching, the two women were left with no one but each other to rely on.
However, Phyllis quickly suspected that their captor was orchestrating a twisted game, setting them up for a battle where only one could survive.
The question remains: Who would do something this sinister? Here are some potential suspects.
Ian Ward: A Familiar Face from the Shadows
One of the most notorious villains in The Young and the Restless history, Ian Ward, has tormented Genoa City residents before. Although believed to be dead, his return wouldn’t be entirely shocking—after all, in soap operas, death is often just a temporary inconvenience. Ian had a history of manipulating and terrorizing both Sharon and Phyllis, and orchestrating their imprisonment would align perfectly with his twisted sense of control. If he were still alive, forcing them to turn against each other in a psychological battle would be right up his alley.
Cameron Kirsten: A Mind Game Gone Too Far
Sharon recently struggled with hallucinations of her former tormentor, Cameron Kirsten. Initially, she believed she was imagining him, but what if she wasn’t? What if Cameron was never truly gone? If he survived and had been gaslighting her this entire time, he could be behind this elaborate kidnapping. His previous obsession with Sharon, combined with a thirst for vengeance, could explain why he would want her in captivity. Adding Phyllis into the mix could be his way of breaking Sharon completely.
Patty Williams: The Unpredictable Wild Card
Patty Williams has a long-standing history of instability and erratic behavior. While her motives are often unclear, she has been known to hold grudges and act impulsively. Could she have decided that Sharon and Phyllis were obstacles to her own personal agenda? Given her past, she certainly has the capability to stage an elaborate kidnapping and manipulate their emotions for her own twisted satisfaction.
Billy Abbott: A Vendetta Turned Dangerous
Billy Abbott may not seem like the type to mastermind a hostage situation, but his recent dealings with Phyllis make him a potential suspect. Phyllis manipulated Billy into doing business with her, and if he suddenly had a change of heart, he might have wanted to get rid of her in the most dramatic way possible. While most people would simply cut ties or send a strongly worded text, Billy has a history of making reckless, impulsive decisions that only complicate matters. Could he have set this all in motion as an extreme form of retaliation?
Victor Newman: A Scheme Only He Could Execute
One of the most powerful figures in Genoa City, Victor Newman always seems to have a hand in major events. His meticulous planning and ability to keep secrets make him a strong suspect. Victor has never been fond of Phyllis, and while he has a complicated history with Sharon, he has often viewed her as an obstacle to his plans for Nick. With his intense need for control, he could have staged this entire situation to protect his son from the constant chaos both women bring into his life.
Furthermore, Victor was furious when Michael and Cole refused to let him keep Jordan prisoner indefinitely. He might have taken matters into his own hands, deciding that he needed new captives to exert his power over. If Victor truly is behind this, he would likely justify it as a necessary step to maintain order in his family’s lives.
Who Could It Be?
With so many possible culprits, the mystery remains unsolved. Could it be a returning villain seeking revenge? A former ally turned enemy? Or perhaps someone no one suspects? Whoever is behind Sharon and Phyllis’ captivity has clearly thought this through, ensuring that their loved ones have no immediate reason to suspect foul play.
As the days go by, one thing is certain: Sharon and Phyllis must work together if they want to escape their nightmare. But with the tension between them already high, will they be able to trust each other long enough to outsmart their captor? Only time will tell.
