Days of Our Lives: 5 Pivotal Moments From The Week Of June 17 – 21

Soap opera stories either crawl or fly by, meaning that sometimes we have to miss big developments. Never fear, Soap Hub is here to fill you in on what you missed last week on Days of Our Lives.

A Wedding and A Near Funeral
Will (Chandler Massey), realizing that he was growing weaker by the minute, insisted that his and Sonny’s (Freddie Smith) wedding take place immediately. With Marlena (Deidre Hall) as officiant, Ari as flower girl and Gabi (Camila Banus), Kate (Lauren Koslow), and Roman (Josh Taylor) as witnesses Sonny and Will were married.

Mere moments after that happy occasion, Will flatlined. As Rex (Kyle Lowder) raced to administer the newly-created cure as Will awoke outside the Brady Pub bathed in an ethereal white light and was greeted by his great-grandmother Caroline.

R.I.P
The cure proved successful and Will awakened to his loved ones and shared with them his memory of Caroline imploring him to return home to his family. At that exact moment, Roman called Kimberly to tell her Will was fine, but she told him that Caroline had passed away.

In short order, an old fashioned Irish wake was arranged for Caroline at her beloved pub. Friends and family — including visiting granddaughter Carrie (Christie Clark) — filled the pub and each took a turn eulogizing the woman who had meant so much to them.

As the festivities drew to a close, Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) recited a favorite poem of her mothers and led a toast, “For Ma.” Outside, Caroline and Shawn reunited and took a moment to savor the image of their family all gathered together as one powerful unit.

Lightbulb Moment
When Ciara (Victoria Konefal) arrived at the loft and tried to persuade Tripp (Lucas Adams) into believing that Ben (Robert Scott Wilson) was innocent, he told her to save her breath. That is, until Ciara named her and Ben’s pick for Firestarter of the Year: Claire. (Olivia Rose Keegan)

After Ciara laid all her suspicions and evidence on the table Tripp had no choice but to agree. His girlfriend had not only tried to kill him and an innocent young woman but she had also tried to kill her own aunt and all out of deep-seated jealousy!

The Trap Is Set

Now on the same page, Tripp and Ciara worked on formulating a plan to get Claire to confess. Their solution was threefold. 1) Continue to make everyone believe that Ciara believes Ben is the guilty party, 2) Tripp must break up with Claire and 3) Tripp and Ciara will make believe that they have reunited.

The young duo was sure that the sight of the two of them together would drive Claire to spilling the truth and they busied themselves with accomplishing steps one and two.

No Good Deed….
Ted (Gilles Marini) awakened in the bowels of the DiMera underground and found himself locked up in one of the many secret rooms. The frazzled lawyer couldn’t for the life of him figure out why Nicole (Arianne Zucker) took a poker to his noggin right after he revealed that her beloved daughter was alive.

At the Salem Inn, Xander (Paul Telfer) answered Kristen’s (Stacy Haiduk) summons and was shocked when she produced a handgun and told home to take care of Ted once and for all.

Against his better judgment, Xander arrived at Ted’s holding cell armed and ready to carry out his partner’s orders.
