Days of Our Lives Tuesday November 19 Recap “Tainted Treats and Script Leaks”

Title Card for Days of Our Lives Peacock

Salem descended into chaos this Tuesday on Days of Our Lives, with a bizarre blend of poisoned cupcakes and purloined scripts. A wave of nausea swept through the town, leaving Roman Brady and Abe Carver among the afflicted, clutching their stomachs and wondering who had it in for them. While the hospital beds filled up, Kate Roberts Brady, ever the pragmatist, took charge, attempting to track the source of the tainted treats and prevent further culinary casualties.

Meanwhile, the mystery of “Lady Whistleblower,” the source of leaked scripts, deepened. Leo Stark, ever the sleuth (when not stirring his own pot of trouble), discovered that Javi Hernandez was the unwitting culprit. Javi, blissfully unaware of Leo’s simmering rage, seemed confused about the cause of his ire, adding extra awkwardness to their already strained relationship. Elsewhere, Gabi Hernandez, never one to shy away from a confrontation, warned Javi about his entanglement with Leo, but her concerns were brushed off as mere familial fretting.

Amidst the chaos, Alex Kiriakis and Joy Wesley found a moment of relative calm, discussing her part in the play “Body & Soul”. Their conversation drifted from Hattie’s supposed curse to Alex’s complicated past with Stephanie, seemingly oblivious to the cupcake crisis unfolding around them. Alex, however, wasn’t immune to the mysterious illness for long, eventually succumbing to the tainted treats despite his initial skepticism.

In a quieter corner of Salem, Johnny DiMera, also a victim of the bad batch of baked goods, shared a moment of vulnerability with Chanel, confessing his fear of losing her. He conveniently glossed over his recent infidelity, a secret that threatens to unravel their reconciliation. Chanel, still in the dark about his betrayal, offered reassurances, unaware of the precariousness of their situation. The episode ended with more questions than answers, leaving me wondering just how many people will fall victim to the poisoned pastries and how long Javi can remain ignorant of Leo’s discovery.
