The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers for Friday, October 3, reveal that two schemers will agree to a sneak attack while Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) fires back at Jill Abbott (Jess Walton). Y&R fans will see a strategy session and some conflict all over town, so let’s talk about what’s in store.

Now that Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) have formed an alliance against Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn), they’ll meet to discuss their next steps.

Victor and Jack are hoping Jill can steer Cane down a less destructive path, but they can’t count on that for certain.

Cane is a wildcard, so it’s best to be prepared with multiple tactics.

That’s why Victor and Jack will put their heads together on a sneak attack strategy – one that could shake up Cane’s plans in the coming episodes.

In the meantime, wounded Billy will strike back at Jill, who’s upset over the way her son’s treated her.

It hurt Jill deeply when Billy cut her out of his life, but Billy will argue that she hurt him first with all the Chancellor drama.

Billy was humiliated when Jill lost faith in him and ultimately sold the company to Victor.

We’ve seen a vengeful version of Billy ever since, so there’ll be a lot of pain and resentment to work through.

Jill and Billy still love each other deep down, so Cane may push them to concentrate on that in Friday’s show.

It looks like Cane will play referee as Billy and Jill argue, but he’ll eventually have to face Jill’s questions about his quest for Genoa City domination.

At some point, Billy may also get updates on Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) asking Jill to invest in Abbott Communications.

That could bring Billy’s temper tantrum since Sally went behind his back to score money from his estranged mom.

Over with Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic), he’ll respond to Audra Charles’ (Zuleyka Silver) attempt to win him back.

Despite Audra’s emotional plea, it appears Nate will reject her once more due to his lack of trust.

The Young and the Restless spoilers say Audra will have to figure out a path forward without Nate, so stay tuned to see what she’ll do after facing bad news.
