Days of our Lives Recap: The DNA Results Are In

The Days of our Lives recap for Monday, February 1, 2021, features Jake crushing Gabi, Nicole receiving bad news, and more shockers about Gwen coming to light.

Days of our Lives Recap Highlights

Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) was set to go home and Abby (Marci Miller) came to collect her. Julie already had Doug on his way. Abigail told her all about Gwen’s (Emily O’Brien) dirty little drugging deed and sister scandal. Julie knew she recognized that woman!

Charge Her

Abigail made her way to the police department and all but demanded Rafe (Galen Gering) press charges for the drugging. Gwen interrupted, showed off her shiner, and demanded Rafe charge Abby instead. No one was charged, though. Before Gwen could fume she got the call her paternity test was in.

The Whole Truth

At the same time, Jack (Matthew Ashford) and Jennifer (Cady McClain) talked about Gwen and Tiffany. How could he forget her? Well, Jenn, Jack was not in a good place back then, okay. Jack went through his receipts from back then (yes, he’s a hoarder) and even called his secretary. He could not find evidence.

Evidence was on its way, though. Jack got the call from the hospital and rushed to get the results. He met Gwen at the hub as she was having a spat with Julie. They opened the envelope and lo and behold, Jack is the father.

Back at the house, Laura (Jamie Lyn Bauer) showed up for a visit. Good timing! Jennifer told her about the Gwen drama and Laura looked sick. She confessed to knowing all about Gwen. She was the one signing those secret checks.

Jake Said No To Gabi

Meanwhile, Jake (Brandon Barash) went from having it out with Tony (Thaao Penghlis) to asking his big brother for business advice. In the end, it was decided DiMera should steer clear of Gabi Chic.

Gabi was not too happy to hear the news. She was less thrilled to be wearing a towel while receiving the blow. Jake did agree to release the company so she could restart her company herself. At least there’s that.

Eric Broke Nicole’s Heart… Again

Over at the pub, Nicole (Arianne Zucker) was flying high over Eric’s impending homecoming. She and Roman (Josh Taylor) even planned a party. Sadly, no sooner did she leave than Eric called. He was not coming back, not yet, at least. He was asked to stay for three more months. Nicole was crushed. Days of our Lives (DOOL) airs weekdays on NBC. Check your local listings for airtimes.
