Days of our Lives Historical Recap Highlights

Steve (Stephen Nichols) was in Kayla Brady’s (Mary Beth Evans) office to hear about his blood results, but they were inconclusive, frustrating Steve. He then got dizzy and almost fell but insisted he just needed rest.

John Black’s (Drake Hogestyn) mystery guy approached him and Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) and John went to speak with him. Marlena then spotted Will Horton (Chandler Massey) and Paul (Christopher Sean) and wanted to know why they were at the hospital. They made up a story, making her curious.

The mystery guy told John they see all and gave him a new vial since he broke the old one. He said the ISA wants Steve dead. Will and Paul overheard, so Paul followed the guy and Will stayed on John, who called Steve to meet up with him. The guy pulled a gun on Paul, Will told John he knows about the poison, and Steve collapsed.
