EJ DiMera thinks he has everybody beat. But he has no idea how much his toxic ways have impacted all of Salem. Well, at the end of the Wednesday, April 2 episode of Days of Our Lives, he started to find out.

Wednesday’s DAYS episode set up the “Who Shot EJ” whodunit that undoubtedly will continue until the end of the Ron Carlivati era of the show. The suspects in this mystery are plentiful. If they didn’t threaten EJ (Dan Feuerriegel), they either hoped for his downfall or grabbed a gun with malicious intent. Johnny (Carson Boatman, DAYS’ March 2025 Performer of the Month) procured Roman’s (Josh Taylor) gun, while Ava (Tamara Braun, who’s out at DAYS) carried a not-so-concealed weapon.

Meanwhile, Paulina (Jackée Harry) mentioned somebody needing to take care of the devious DiMera, and Jada’s (Elia Cantu) gun was holstered right by her side. In front of Rafe (Galen Gering), Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) threatened to kill EJ, and when JJ (Casey Moss) arrived at the house, the brother and sister weren’t anywhere around. Even Chanel (Raven Bowens) stood up to her father-in-law, so we couldn’t rule her out. And, of course, there were suspicious individuals that weren’t even shown on Wednesday. On Thursday, the shooting goes down.
Ava glares at The Spectator article and seethes over EJ getting away with everything including aiding and abetting her kidnapping. ![](data:image/svg+xml,<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 600 400"></svg>)
Gabi tells her brother that she could kill EJ. Rafe tells his sister that she can’t say that. In fact, simply threatening EJ was a crime. Chanel confronted EJ and his devious ways. And she stood up for Johnny. EJ told his daughter-in-law that Johnny said he was dead to him. She didn’t know Johnny said that about his dad. In front of Jada, Paulina said somebody needed to take care of EJ. That was the only way there would be any justice. Later, Chanel arrives and Paulina’s asleep. However, when somebody enters EJ’s house, it’s “sometime later.” So that doesn’t totally rule out Paulina. At the precinct, a despondent Jada is feeling all kinds of emotions. We purposely get a glimpse of Jada’s gun signifying she could be a suspect. JJ goes over to Rafe and Gabi’s house and knocks on the door. Rafe and Gabi do not answer. At The Brady Pub, Johnny finds the key to his grandpa’s lockbox and grabs the gun that was tucked safely inside. Ava is ready to get justice. EJ, who is alone at home, talks to Stefano and celebrates being one step ahead of everybody. But is he? Suddenly, EJ looks at someone in the room with him and says, “What are you doing?”
