In the coming episodes of "The Young and the Restless," spoilers indicate that someone is going to die. This certainly leads everyone to speculating which Genoa City resident is going to depart, and it can be narrowed down to a few options.

For starters, Zack (Ryan Ashton), the prostitution ring leader who not only screws Abby (Melissa Ordway) over with his lies, has also made many women suffer and most recently framed Scott (Daniel Hall) for the murder of Natalia (Tina Ivlev). Should Zack end up being six feet under, it is safe to say he will not be missed. He has proven to be quite the despicable character.

Zack will definitely feel like everyone is on to him this week. The whole scandal involving the prostitution ring will spread like wildfire and he will try and make a break for it. Obviously, Scott will hope that he could catch him.

Then again, the death in question may be referring to Crystal (Morgan Obenreder). She will definitely come back before Zack gets exposed and there is a possibility that he will kill her to keep her from spilling anything to the authorities. While it may seem cruel to bring Crystal back in the picture just to have her bumped off in the end, it could also serve as a way for Mariah (Camryn Grimes) and Tessa (Cait Fairbanks) to get closer.

Another possibility would be Juliet (Laur Allen). Juliet, much like Zack, has become a big part of the current storylines, so it is possible that she could be on her way out. Charlie (Noah Alexander Gerry) will have a chat with Juliet while Cane (Daniel Goddard) and Lily (Christel Khalil) go with the divorce proceedings.

When Juliet gets up off the bench, Charlie will spot some blood. Knowing that Juliet has placenta previa and, therefore, is going through a high-risk pregnancy, it seems inevitable that she will suffer a miscarriage, but whether or not her life will also be on the line is unclear.

Then there is Jordan (Darnell Kirkwood), who has been around Genoa City for some time now. It seems that his time in town is winding down, so he could become an option. Of course, before he goes out, he will definitely butt heads with Hilary (Mishael Morgan) for a bit. While he might come out of this alive, Hilary is determined to make him suffer.

Speaking of Hilary and Jordan, "The Young and the Restless" spoilers reveal that Hilary will go to Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) for some answers. She will hope to get some information about Jordan from her. She knows Jordan has quite a past, and she intends to use it to her advantage.

Of course, Chelsea will not say anything, so this leads Hilary to give her a warning. Hilary will suggest that she might come after Chelsea as well, so she should cooperate if she knows what is good for her. On the other hand, Chelsea will try a different approach, by telling Jordan what is going on and tell him to deal with this as soon as possible.

This leads Jordan to using the leverage he has on her. As fans could recall, Jordan previously took some nude photos of Hilary. He will explain that he has copies of the photos and is not afraid to use them. Should Hilary go through with her plan to make him suffer, then she will also risk getting exposed with those photos.

"The Young and the Restless" airs Mondays to Fridays at 1:30 p.m. EST on CBS.
