Here’s Why [Spoiler] Kidnapped Sharon & Phyllis

Curious as to why Alan/Martin Laurent kidnapped Sharon and Phyllis on The Young and the Restless? The shocking revelation that Alan was his presumed-dead twin, Martin, left fans stunned, especially given his connection to Traci and the Abbott family.

Here’s what we know about Alan/Martin’s true identity in The Young and the Restless, his twisted motivations, and how Sharon and Phyllis became pawns in his psychological game.

Why did Alan/Martin abduct Sharon/Phyllis?

Martin, posing as his twin Alan Laurent, kidnapped Sharon and Phyllis to manipulate and control them psychologically in The Young and the Restless.

Martin had a history of impersonating his brother, a respected psychiatrist, and took pleasure in deceiving others. His primary motivation was the challenge of mentally and emotionally manipulating people, turning the situation into a twisted psychological game.

Martin first met Sharon when Traci introduced them at the Athletic Club. At the time, Sharon was struggling with guilt over Heather’s death and was under the influence of PCP. Later, Martin hypnotized her to help recover memories of the night Phyllis was run off the road and Heather died. His fascination with Sharon’s mental struggles and her volatile relationship with Phyllis likely led him to test their ability to work together in captivity.

Martin’s obsession with psychological control was clear when he manipulated Ashley. He may have triggered her dissociative identity disorder (D.I.D.) and convinced her to seek treatment overseas. This removed her as an obstacle while he pursued Traci. His history of deception and control made him an expert manipulator, turning Sharon and Phyllis into his latest test subjects.

The Voice, which communicated with the captives, frequently used words like “experiment,” “challenge,” and “game,” showing that Martin viewed their captivity as a psychological test. He aimed to force the long-time rivals to confront their issues and work together to escape.

While the full extent of Martin’s motivations remains unclear, his actions demonstrate his willingness to mentally and physically torment others for his own gratification.
