The saga of Dominic Marino is heating up on Days of our Lives. EJ telling Chad that Dominic may be their brother is the latest in the drama surrounding the mystery man. It gives Chad and EJ a chance to set their troubles aside and focus on the newest member of the DiMera family.
Key Takeaways
- EJ’s bombshell instantly changed the dynamic between Chad and him.
- Chad has a reason to work with his brother instead of against him.
- Will EJ use this situation to once again get what he wants out of Chad?
A New DiMera
Dominic has been on everyone’s mind in Salem the past few weeks. However, the last thing Chad (Conner Floyd) expected was to learn from EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel) that Dominic might be their brother.
Chad came in hot at EJ over all of his crimes, but especially the Coriseal situation. EJ stopped Chad in his tracks with the Dominic news. The dynamic in the room changed instantly.
EJ took advantage of Chad’s shock to remind his brother they needed to get a handle on what it could mean if there was a new DiMera. Chad assumed EJ didn’t want to be taken off his throne as Stefano’s (Joseph Mascolo) favorite child.
Let’s be honest, the addition of Dominic would shake up their places in the family. EJ wasn’t wrong about that. Chad missed that in his reaction, and it’s one reason he should work with EJ at least until they know more about Dominic.
Can EJ and Chad Work Together?
There’s no question that EJ knows how to manipulate Chad. Even though Chad knows exactly who EJ is, he sometimes can’t help but get sucked in by his brother.
Chad just told Belle (Martha Madison) that he would help her take down EJ. The news about Dominic, though, should change that.
It’s like the old saying goes, “better the devil you know than the devil you don’t know.” Chad knows EJ and all of his dirty little tricks; he’s just ignored a lot of them in the past. Dominic is a wildcard that no one in the DiMera family knows anything about.
The DiMera brothers could come together and figure out more about Dominic and his place in the family. Chad isn’t wrong in one sense: EJ can’t be trusted. This could be just another way to manipulate his brother at a time when EJ needs an ally.
What do you think, should Chad team up with EJ or work with Belle on the new Dominic development?
