Lindstrom is back on GH next week, reprising the role of Kevin Collins. He last appeared in 2014; earlier this year, the role was played for one day by Anthony Starke while Lindstrom was shooting True Detective.

Let’s just start with that. Kerry Washington is there and she’s working her booty off, okay? But they didn’t vote for her. So, maybe the question is, 'What do you have to do to get voted on?' That's the thing."

'The Young and the Restless' Wednesday Preview: She's Not There

"Devon is not going to find her, she's not there," Cane tells Lily.

On Tuesday's (October 13) episode of The Young and the Restless, Jack (Peter Bergman) convinced Billy (Burgess Jenkins) to let Adam (Justin Hartley) speak at Chancellor Park, where family and friends gathered to remember Delia. But Chloe (Elizabeth Hendrickson) wasn't having it, so she made herself known and pulled a gun on Adam. Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) was able to convince her to not to shoot him. Later, Chloe made a mysterious phone call which made it seem like she may have a baby girl out there somewhere. Meanwhile, Devon (Bryton James) and Dylan (Steve Burton) went rogue in order to rescue Hilary (Mishael Morgan). It looked like Neil (Kristoff St. John) was about to be caught.

[WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD]

On Wednesday's Y&R, Victoria (Amelia Heinle) isn't happy when Victor (Eric Braeden) brings Adam to Newman to help stop the Paragon virus, and Chloe tells Billy the girl she was talking about on the phone was her new dog, Hazelnut. She then suggests they team up to kill Adam. When he balks, she says she was kidding.

Devon and Dylan discover the address the kidnapper gave them was wrong. No one had been there, and they are no closer to discovering that Neil has Hilary.

Elsewhere, Michael (Christian LeBlanc) wants Chelsea to testify on Adam's behalf at his trial.

At the park, Emma (Alice Greczyn) tells Gwen (Nadine Turner) that she had to fire Dr. Neville (Michael E. Knight), which gives Gwen the idea to use him to help Hilary.

EXCLUSIVE: 'Young and the Restless' Star Joshua Morrow on His New Film 'Golden Shoes,' Available Now on DVD and On Demand

The Young and the Restless star Joshua Morrow plays
George Larou in Golden Shoes, available now on 
DVD and On Demand.

Joshua Morrow has starred in CBS daytime drama The Young and the Restless since 1994 as Nick Newman, who navigates romance, children and a career in fictional Genoa City. His latest project is a wonderful new movie, Golden Shoes, featuring an all-star cast in the story of a young soccer player with big dreams.

As long as he could remember, eight-year-old Christian Larou (Christian Koza) dreamed of being a great soccer player like his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo. When his father (Morrow) is deployed to Afghanistan, his mother (Dina Meyer) is hospitalized and he's subjected to intense bullying at school, Christian pours himself into the game he loves. With the help of some very special shoes, can Christian lead his team to the championship, inspire an entire nation, and bring his family together again?

Golden Shoes is available on DVD and On Demand starting today. We Love Soaps spoke to Morrow about his role in the film, working on location, and his love for Y&R. We even got the avid sports fan to make a college football prediction. Check out our exclusive interview below:

WE LOVE SOAPS: How did you get cast in the movie as George Larou?
JOSHUA MORROW: My manager called me up one day and they offered it to me. I didn't even have to audition for it. I think they were pretty happy with what they saw on my show, and offered me the role of George Larou. It's not a big role but I loved doing it. I don't get a chance to do things like that very often, based on my work schedule, but it was fun and a really cool experience for me.

Meanwhile, Nick (Joshua Morrow) confronted Sage (Kelly Sullivan) over keeping Adam's identity a secret, and he questioned whether he was the father of her baby. Billy (Burgess Jenkins) reeled from the news his arch enemy was alive, and told Victoria (Amelia Heinle) he longed for what he had the day before, a world without Adam Newman.

[SPOILER ALERT]

On Wednesday's Y&R, Jill (Jess Walton) returns from her business trip to Hong Kong, and immediately learns from Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) that Adam is alive.

Elsewhere, Neil (Kristoff St. John) tells Gwen (Nadine Nicole) they need more supplies, and Devon receives a ransom note.

"I have Hilary, don't got to the police, be in touch," the note reads.

At the park, Adam tries to help Sage, when she says her baby is coming.

"I delivered Johnny, I've done this before," Adam says, trying to reassure her.

Emmy-winning producer wanted for allegedly stabbing roommate over Oscars joke
Andre Bauth, whose real name is Andre Salaman Bautista, is wanted on charges of attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon after his roommate was stabbed with a kitchen knife. Bautista won a daytime Emmy earlier this year as a producer for the soap opera The Bay.

A man who identified himself as the stabbing victim, 23-year-old actor Clayton Haymes, told KCBS-TV Channel 2 that Bautista, his landlord and manager, attacked him early Tuesday morning over an argument about winning Oscars. Haymes had returned home with his roommates after dinner and drinks, he said, when Bautista boasted that he would someday win five Oscars.

“When he said ‘five Oscars,’ we all just kind of laughed a little bit, and he got really upset,” Haymes told KCBS. According to Haymes, Bautista then chased him into a room, swung a knife at him, stabbed him, and fled. “I just don’t understand why he would want to do this to me because we’re friends,” Haymes said.
