7 Moments You Missed On 'DOOL,' 'Y&R,' & 'B&B' This Week

November Sweeps went out with a bang and quickly ushered in quite enough drama to keep everyone on "Days Of Our Lives," "The Young and the Restless," and "The Bold And The Beautiful" so occupied throughout December, that they may not even realize it's the holiday season.

With unexpected character returns, secrets which threatened to be revealed, shocking splits and hook-ups, and scary threats, the action had enough power behind it to light up thousands of Christmas trees. In case you might have had to miss a few minutes of the shows this week, here are the seven biggest moments that happened:

"Days Of Our Lives" (NBC)

Sami Goes To Extremes To Get Will Back

Though her son is back in Salem and knows he is really Will n(Chandler Massey), things still haven't the greatest for Sami (Alison Sweeney), as he still hasn't regained his memories and refuses to have a relationship with his mother because of the brainwashing he endured. Desperate to trigger his memories and get him back, Sami went to extremes, breaking Ben (Robert Scott Wilson) out of the mental hospital and enlisting him to reenact the moment he attempted to kill Will, in the hopes that reliving the trauma would bring Will back. However, her plan only pushed her son further away, after Ben halted the plot and admitted the truth to Will about who put him up to the task.

Hope And Rafe Split

After she lost her job as commissioner and he took it, Hope (Kristian Alfonso) and Rafe (Galen Gering) finally found themselves in a place they never believed they'd be in—on the verge of a break-up. As they discussed their recent turn of events, Hope finally confided in her fiancé that she couldn't marry him because she was never going to get over Bo, and unable to accept that, Rafe ended their romance for good.

Sami And Rafe Hook-Up

As they both dealt with their respective heartbreaks, old passion and alcohol took over—and Rafe and Sami found themselves in a heated moment. Now, a passionate kiss could lead to more, and a hot and steamy hook-up is about to happen.

"The Young And The Restless" (CBS)

Lily Steps Up For Cane's Son

Even though his son with Juliet's (Laur Allen) existence is the very thing that prompted Lily (Christel Khalil) to file for divorce, she stepped up to be there for Cane (Daniel Goddard) in his time of need. After learning that baby Sam needed a blood donor in order to potentially save him from a fatal heart condition, Lily gave what was needed to ensure Cane's son wouldn't also die.

Victor Threatens Chelsea

After realizing Chelsea (Melissa Clare Egan) and Nick (Joshua Morrow) weren't planning on attending the Christmas tree lighting at his ranch, Victor (Eric Braden) made an unexpected threat to Chelsea. He warned her that if they opted not to go over to his home, then he may find himself forced to tell Nick the big secret she's been keeping from him about Christian really being Adam's son—not his.

"The Bold And The Beautiful" (CBS)

Thorne Returns

After staying in Europe following his daughter's murder and only periodically returning back to L.A., Thorne (Ingo Rademacher) finally came home to Los Angeles. Now, his return will spell big trouble for Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), because this time, he isn't letting his half-brother take charge. He's here to not only win the woman Ridge loves, bur also potentially best him when it comes to who gets to work as a CEO at Forrester as well.

Steffy Tries Telling Liam The Truth

Despite deciding that it was best if Liam (Scott Clifton) never learned of what happened between her and Bill (Don Diamont), Steffy's guilt has continued to eat at her, to a point where she couldn't look at her husband without bursting into tears. Now, she has confessed that she is upset because of his father—though whether she tells him the real reason why or not remains to be seen.
