Salem’s never a dull place, especially during the holidays. This week on “Days of Our Lives,” secrets simmer, accusations fly, and a new romance might just be heating up under the mistletoe. EJ DiMera, never one to shy away from a power play, wants Belle Black out as DiMera Enterprises’ consultant. Whether Kristen, his ever-scheming sister, agrees with this corporate shake-up remains unclear. Family dysfunction, it’s a DiMera tradition.
Meanwhile, Ava Vitali’s romantic evening with Brady Black takes a turn for the ominous when a cryptic text arrives from an unknown number. Naturally, suspicion immediately falls on Kristen. Is she stirring the pot, or is there a new puppet master pulling strings in Salem? Considering Kristen’s track record, either scenario is equally plausible.
Elsewhere in Salem, Rafe Hernandez hauls Hattie Adams back to town for a grilling by Leo Stark regarding the Lady Whistleblower impersonation. Hattie, of course, denies any involvement, hinting that Kerry could be the real culprit. As if the cupcake caper wasn’t complicated enough, Jada Hunter continues her investigation, with Hattie still firmly in her crosshairs, despite maintaining her innocence.
Amidst the drama and intrigue, a flicker of romance sparks between JJ Deveraux and Gabi Hernandez during a night out. Could this be the start of a new Salem power couple? Or just another short-lived fling in a town where relationships are as volatile as the stock market? Tune in to find out.
“Days of Our Lives” airs weekdays on Peacock.
