'Young and the Restless' (Y&R) Spoilers: Mariah Tries Encouraging Sharon To Come Clean About Sully [VIDEO]
They have successfully kept the truth about Sully really being Christian a secret for a long while now, but with the threat Patty (Stacy Haiduk) poses, Mariah (Camryn Grimes) will try to encourage Sharon (Sharon Case) to do the right thing instead of create more schemes on The Young and the Restless.
Patty was making numerous calls to Sharon and threatened to tell Dylan (Steve Burton) the truth about the baby he believes is his really being Nick's (Joshua Morrow) son with Sage, who they thought was dead, unless Sharon helped her get out of Stonevale, where she was sent after she murdered Dr. Anderson. Now, Sharon is trying to think of a way to get Patty what she wants so she can keep the secret buried and not risk her marriage, but Mariah will try to convince her that the only true way to keep Patty from doing anything destructive is to confess the truth for herself.
"Take away Patty's leverage," she says in a preview clip for the Wednesday, October 12 episode. "Tell everyone the truth about Sully."
Sharon will balk at the suggestion however, knowing that telling the truth will destroy her marriage to Dylan, and also her civil relationship with Nick-and it could cause her to become the town pariah. Instead of taking Mariah's suggestion she will tell her that the plan is to convince Patty to act like she's worse off than she really is, which would lead to a transfer to a new facility, during which Sharon would find a way to help her escape. However, Sharon will also share that instead of providing help for Patty during her transfer, she would simply fail to do so, which would not only keep Patty from spilling the truth now, but would also keep her safe from the secret getting out later, since Patty will be locked up in an even more intense facility further away from town.
However, her secret could still be exposed otherwise, as Paul (Doug Davidson) will then go to visit his sister, and while he's there, Mariah could also head there to tell her the plan, and if he sees her, he will know something is up.
The Young and the Restless airs Monday-Friday at 12:30 p.m. on CBS.
