Her son has finally come home again and has vowed that he will find out who killed his father and get revenge. Now, as Reed also begins looking into what happened to JT, Victoria will work to try and cover up the truth on the Wednesday, Dec. 12 episode of “The Young and the Restless.”

Victoria (Amelia Heinle), Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott), Sharon (Sharon Case) and Phyllis (Gina Tognoni) have all been working overtime to try and keep the truth about JT’s (Thad Luckinbill) death a secret for months, and recently learned that in light of new evidence, Rey (Jordi Villasousa) suspects Victor (Eric Braden) is responsible for the crime on the CBS soap. Now, as someone continues to taunt them over the crime, Reed (Tristan Lake Leabu) has returned home and sworn to find the culprit as well.

However, despite a warning from Billy (Jason Thompson) that Reed is seeking revenge, Victoria will still refuse to let him know that his grandfather is suspected in his father’s death. Unfortunately, for her, her son is still intent on digging around town to find out information—and he is sure to come across the latest news from the police.

When he realizes what his mother is keeping from him, Reed will quickly blow up, because he wants answers. However, even if he is livid about that secret, he would be even more pissed off if he learned the real story.

The truth about JT’s death is that Nikki was the one who killed him, and the other women helped her cover it up. They still don’t know who moved his body from the grave at Chancellor Park, or who is threatening them now, but the true story needs to remain hidden. Victoria will have to work even harder if she’s going to make sure her own son doesn’t learn the truth either.

“The Young and the Restless” airs weekdays at 12:30 p.m. EST on CBS.
