Young & Restless Crossword Challenge: Test Your Knowledge of Victor and Nikki’s Anniversary!
Sunday, April 28th, 2024
There was a lot going on when Young & Restless’ Nikki and Victor hosted a celebration in honor of their 40th anniversary — so much so that viewers may not have been able to take it all in! We, however, were paying very close attention to everything going down… perhaps even more so than usual. Why? So that we could… well, we’ll get to that in just a moment.
Not only were the Newmans partying it up, but Ashley was resting at the Abbott mansion after her intervention, Daniel met up with mom Phyllis to discuss his current messy situation (which he may come to regret), Jordan was lurking around in her latest disguise, and Christine gave Danny unsettling news that left them both shedding tears. So. Many. Tears!
But now, why we were paying such close attention. See, we were preparing to challenge you! After the episode aired, we began crafting clues for the puzzle below. Now, it’s time to see whether or not you were paying attention! The good news is you don’t even need to print out the puzzle. You can work it right here on the page by clicking on a clue, which will automatically put your cursor where it needs to be in order to type in the answer.

7/41
<p>Nikki and Victor pose with their long-time friend, Lauren Fenmore at the big anniversary bash. Lauren’s had enough drama for a lifetime after her saga with Sheila Carter — maybe she gave them pointers on how to deal with a psychopath like Jorda!</p>

<p>Nick and Phyllis’ daughter, and Nikki and Victor’s granddaughter, Summer wouldn’t miss this party for the world. But we’ve a feeling she might come to wish she had stayed home.</p>

<p>Making the party all the more fun, Phyllis and Diane run into each other and pause for a good snark session. We have to wonder if they’re remembering what happened at the last gala Nikki and Victor threw in the jazz lounge!</p>

<p>Adam may not be feeling the party, what with Connor away at the treatment facility in Maryland, but Sally is by his side and that makes all the difference. Will she end up talking business with the Mustache at some point?</p>

<p>We can just hear Victor crooning, “My Baby” in Nikki’s ear as they take to the dance floor. What an incredible love story they share.</p>
Image: CBS
14/41
<p>Perhaps seeing Adam and Sally prompted Nick to encourage his dad to give the redhead’s interior design business a second chance by pulling it under the Newman umbrella. Or maybe Victor’s reassuring Nick about security. “We’re luring Jordan here, but I promise you won’t get stabbed again, my boy!”</p>

<p>Whatever is happening on this phone call, it doesn’t look like Summer is very happy about it. In fact, she looks downright upset. Here we go…</p>

19/41
<p>In a weird and unforeseen twist, panic appears to have followed Jack and Diane home from the anniversary bash and right into their home. Could thir shocked expressions have anything to do with the call Summer got in the previous slide?!</p>

20/41
<p>Might the panic ensuing have something to do with Claire babysitting Harrison? We have a lot of questions. Where is Kyle? Why is Claire in party garb while caregiving? Might this idyllic scene have been a precursor to whatever went down? What could have happened involving Claire and Harrison?! You’ll have to tune in to <em>Young & Restless</em> on Friday April 12 to find out.</p>

<p>As far as we know, Crazy Aunt Jordan is <em>not</em> engaged, so we’re not sure what to make of these pics in which she’s flashing major bling on the ring finger of her left hand. Things that make you go, “Hmm.”</p>
