Some viewers might have been confused by Cane and Traci’s interaction on Monday’s episode of The Young and the Restless. They weren’t the only ones. Phyllis was also confused, which brings up questions about Traci and Cane’s past.
The Past Has a Funny Way of Catching Up With You
Traci (Beth Maitland) was supposed to meet Amy (Valarie Pettiford) at Society. However, Amy had to cancel their plans, but Traci found herself in good company. She joined Michael (Christian Le Blanc) at the bar.
Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) and Cane (Billy Flynn) walked in. Michael excused himself when he got a message from Lauren (Tracey Bregman). Cane followed Michael outside to talk business. (Cane’s plan is just beginning on Y&R, but what is it?)
At the bar, Phyllis and Traci discussed the trauma they went through with Martin (Christopher Cousins). The ladies toasted to their future. Later, Cane and Traci reconnected. He said that he was glad to run into her and that she still looks great.
Cane has thought a lot about Traci over the years, and Traci said she’s thought about him, too. Phyllis looked at them in confusion. Apparently, she’s not the only one. Some Y&R viewers on social media were shocked to learn that Cane and Traci had a fling. But is that what really happened?
About The Traci and Cane Pairing
Traci had a crush on Cane and often fantasized about him as the leading man of her mystery novel. Both were single at the time and were overcoming personal issues.
Lily (Christel Khalil) dumped Cane the moment she got out of prison. Devon (Bryton James) told Cane to stay away from his sister. Meanwhile, Traci was dealing with the slow decline of her mom, Dina Mergeron (Marla Adams).
The two found comfort in one another and connected over their need for escapism. Traci used Cane to write her next best-selling novel. (Who is the love of Traci’s life on Y&R?). Cane tried to pursue a romantic relationship, but Traci wanted to remain friends. Cane eventually left Genoa City, and then he created the Aristole Dumas persona in secrecy.
