The Young and the Restless spoilers for Tuesday, October 7, hint at some explosive moments in Genoa City.

Two rivals have some unfinished business, while a wife worries, and a character questions their ex. What’s on the horizon for Tuesday’s show? Time to find out!

Nikki Newman vs. Jill Abbott

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Tuesday, October 7 note that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) and Jill Abbott (Jess Walton) will square off, as the two rivals will try and settle some unfinished business.

Nikki and Jill have rarely been on the same page, although one thing that both women can agree on is their love and admiration of Katherine Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper).

Will this confrontation turn ugly, or can they find some common ground? It sounds like fans should expect a truce between the two ladies, but only time will tell.

Tessa Porter Worries

Across town, on top of everything else Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) has had to worry about where her wife, Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) is concerned, during the October 7 episode, she’ll also worry about her safety. This doesn’t sound good.

Tessa is set to update Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) on what she and Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) found out about while investigating Mariah’s incident during her business trip, and it’ll be disturbing.

Mariah tried to suffocate that older (unknown) man (played by Michael Swan), and she confessed this to Tessa before she headed out of town to therapy, but what information will Tessa and Daniel provide Sharon, and how bad is this situation?

Nick Newman Wants Answers

Meanwhile, The Young and the Restless spoilers for Tuesday suggest that Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) will grill Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) about her alliance with Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn). Will he get any answers that he likes or will Red continue to dodge him?

Nick has been desperately trying to get through to his ex-wife, but she hasn’t moved an inch on her stance. Will Cane come between Phyllis and Nick’s friendship/bond?
