Where Sharon and Phyllis really are on The Young and the Restless

On The Young and the Restless, Phyllis and Sharon have gone missing. But while everyone else tries to figure out where they are, we can show you.

Missing on The Young and the Restless

Daniel (Michael Graziadei) was the only person to suspect something was amiss with his mom, Phyllis (Michelle Stafford). After hounding him day and night for weeks, she suddenly stopped comminating — right after he’d agreed to start working together. To him, the timing was obvious that something was not right.

Daniel called Billy (Jason Thompson) and talked to Summer (Allison Lanier), but both of them thought Phyllis was flighty enough to be off chasing some new shiny thing and not worry about her. However, when she didn’t show up for the breakfast she’d planned with her kids, even Summer had to admit that it was out of character for her mom to be a no-show and to make them worry after everything they’d gone through recently was definitely not something she would do. They enlisted Chance’s (Connor Floyd) help to find their mom.

What Daniel and Summer didn’t know was that Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Mariah (Camryn Grimes) were having the same conversation. And when they ran into Chance at Crimson Lights, they all realized that both Phyllis and Sharon (Sharon Case) were unaccounted for.

Chance called Summer and Daniel to join them at the coffee house, but the conversation took an awkward turn when Mariah suggested that one of the two didn’t leave willingly. Could it be possible that Phyllis finally snapped? Had she followed through with her implied threats that she would make Sharon accountable for the awful things she did to Phyllis’ family when they were grieving Heather (Vail Bloom)?

Where Sharon and Phyllis actually are

While it’s easy to see why people in Genoa City would think it was possible that Sharon could have done something to Phyllis or vice versa, neither is true. Neither Sharon nor Phyllis left willingly and not with one another.

In fact, they are about to wake up to a nightmare. They’re going to find themselves in a situation that is life-threatening, and they will have to work together to survive. But given the hatred between these two, and for decades, when given the opportunity to save themself over the other, what would they choose?

Sharon and Phyllis are unconscious and laying on the floor of a dingy, deserted apartment. Do we recognize it? Take a good look at the pictures, and you’ll see both Sharon and Phyllis strewn across the floor like they were dragged in and dumped there. But by who?

Sharon and Phyllis have been the targets of Ian Ward and Aunt Jordan for months. We know that Ian is still alive — but is Jordan, too? Did her sleeping pills wear off in the morgue, and did Ian help her escape when he was brought there, too?

Michelle Stafford recently posted on her Instagram that what happens next is some of "the funniest, craziest stuff" she's ever done on the show. Say what?! Instagrammer lori_avl_naples responded, "Craziest stuff you've done on the show? That's saying ALOT !!!" We couldn't agree more. Buckle up, Y&R fans, we're about to go on a wild ride.
