Walking in on Daniel’s conversation with Heather and Lucy in his new apartment, Lily perceives them as a happy family, making her feel out of place. Although Daniel has promised Lucy she is welcome to stay, Lily becomes uneasy, especially when considering potential family nights at Daniel’s penthouse.

Daniel, however, doesn’t want Heather to feel left out, and there’s a possibility of her staying a little later, leading to various scenarios.

One scenario could involve Daniel cheating on Lily with Heather, or they could be caught in a compromising position.

Whether they actually cheat or not, Lily may discover Heather has slept over, leading to complaints about Daniel crossing a boundary. With Crystal Khalil’s maternity leave approaching, Y&R seems to be steering Daniel and Lily toward a dramatic relationship breakdown, potentially providing Lily an excuse to leave town and clear her head.
