Shemar Moore will return to his old stomping grounds for a tribute to late star Kristoff St. John. The Young and the Restless will present a week-long storyline to bid farewell to the actor’s character and a special tribute on April 29 featuring Moore, Victoria Rowell and Mishael Morgan returning to pay tribute following St. John’s death Feb. 4 at the age of 52.

Moore will be the only actor returning to the show as his original character, Malcolm Winters. The return will take place across two episodes planned for April 25-26, with Moore reprising his role as Neil Winters’ brother for the first time since 2014.

The two-episodes will be part of that week’s storyline and then followed by a special on April 29 featuring Rowell, Morgan, and others as themselves sharing memories of St. John alongside his most memorable moments according to Entertainment Weekly.

Moore played the role of Neil Winters’ half-brother Malcolm for close to a decade from 1994 until 2005, leaving to join Criminal Minds on CBS in 2005 followed by the revival of S.W.A.T. in 2017. His tenure pales to St. John’s 27-year run on the show, but their connection cannot be denied. Moore’s emotions since St. John’s death have not been hidden and he’s shared many thoughts on social media.

“I lost my brother yesterday,” Moore said in a video posted on Instagram following St. John’s death. “I never had a brother, but you were my brother. You showed me the way. You were my mentor, my inspiration. You showed me what true talent was. You showed me what humility was. I love you. I hate this. I love you, but I’m going to celebrate all your good.”
