On The Young and the Restless, Sharon’s mental state takes a dangerous turn, pushing Mariah to take drastic action

to protect her younger sister, Faith. Sharon’s paranoia and violent outbursts have made her a threat to those closest

to her, including Faith, who has been living in constant fear. Mariah devises a bold plan to take Faith far away from

Genoa City, hoping to shield her from their mother’s spiraling madness.

The plan, however, leaves Mariah filled with guilt as Sharon’s deterioration accelerates. Sharon, feeling abandoned by her daughters, lashes out, convinced that Lucy, Daniel, and Heather are part of a conspiracy against her. Meanwhile, Mariah reaches out to Nick, who promises to get Sharon the help she desperately needs.

Faith, though terrified, trusts Mariah’s decision. They go into hiding as Nick takes on the challenge of managing Sharon’s unraveling. Sharon’s mental fracture worsens, consumed by paranoia, believing her family has turned against her. With her grip on reality slipping further, Mariah and Nick scramble to protect Faith while trying to save Sharon from herself. As tensions rise, the family’s fate hangs in the balance, with hope resting on Sharon receiving the help she needs before it’s too late.
