In the Meantime: What Will Happen On Days of our Lives While Abby Is Away?

Abby needs another of her mental health breaks on Days of our Lives. She is so upset with Chad having slept with Gwen, fathering her child, and driving Abby so crazy that she (thinks) she caused Gwen to miscarry by shoving her down the stairs.

Days of our Lives Polling

Abby (Marci Miller) needs a time out. But Chad – and Gwen – are staying in Salem. How will the mice play while the cat is away? We have the best guesses of almost 2,000 very experienced soap watchers.

Come To the Dark Side

Quite a lot of you, 74%, expect Chad (Billy Flynn) to bury himself in his work while he waits for his wife and children to return. And that means diving into DiMera business. Which means embracing his DiMera side. Chad has never gone as far as he could, which would have been quite a disappointment to Stefano (Joseph Mascolo). This is his chance to make his daddy proud. And show Abby that he’s got other interests outside of catering to her.

Love the One You’re With

Only 16% of the audience expects Chad to turn to Gwen (Emily O’Brien). It’s natural. They will both be mourning their child, which they did lose – even if Gwen isn’t telling the whole truth about when and how. Gwen might want to make a little replacement. And Chad might just be susceptible enough to agree. After all, he already gave in once when Gwen convinced Chad Gwen didn’t want Chad anymore.

Daddy’s Girl

A last-place 10% don’t care about Gwen and Chad. You’re more interested in Gwen’s relationship with Jack (Matthew Ashford). Jack feels bad that he missed all of Gwen’s childhood. (For the record, he was “dead” for a lot of Abigail’s, too.) He’s going to try to make it up to her. And maybe find a new favorite daughter. Days of our Lives (DOOL) airs weekdays on NBC.
