Salem, the epicenter of daytime drama, once again lived up to its reputation in Wednesday’s episode of “Days of Our Lives.” Chad and Cat’s scheme to uncover Abigail’s remains took a risky turn, involving decoys and the unwitting participation of JJ. Meanwhile, a batch of poisoned cupcakes continued to cause a stir, casting suspicion on Hattie and leading to a Salem PD investigation spearheaded by Jada. Elsewhere, Rafe’s decision to resign from the police force added another layer of complication to his relationship with Jada. And let’s not forget Leo’s misguided accusations against Javi, culminating in a dramatic breakup – though a reunion might be in the cards.
Chad and Cat’s plan to outsmart Clyde Weston in their quest to find Abigail’s remains involved a high-stakes gamble with JJ serving as a decoy. Gabi offered support to a worried JJ, who voiced concerns about Cat’s true allegiance. Simultaneously, a case of poisoned cupcakes sent Salem into a frenzy. Paulina, never one to shy away from a confrontation, demanded a thorough investigation, while Bonnie pointed her finger directly at Hattie. Kayla confirmed the presence of poison in the treats, though thankfully, not a lethal dose.
Amid the cupcake chaos, Rafe made a significant career move, resigning from the Salem PD. His reasoning? An unwillingness to compromise his relationship with Jada by working under her command. As if that weren’t enough drama, Leo’s misdirected suspicion that Javi was the Lady Whistleblower resulted in a fiery breakup. However, given the ever-shifting landscape of Salem relationships, a reconciliation might be just around the corner. Javi, ever resourceful, managed to effectively debunk Leo’s accusations, proving his innocence and perhaps paving the way for a reunion.
“Days of Our Lives” airs weekdays on Peacock.
