Xander Kiriakis, Sarah
In the Days of our Lives recap for Wednesday, January 17, 2024, Xander and Sarah shared a hot and heavy moment as Sarah finally moved into Xander’s place.
In addition, Steve and Kayla threw a dinner party that Everett crashed. Wendy and Tripp introduced their fun Valentine’s Day fundraiser idea. Harris fought for Ava. Meanwhile, Stefan tried to put an end to Harris and Ava in dramatic fashion. Let’s dig into the details of what went down.
Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) finally moved in with Xander (Paul Telfer). He looked all annoyed over Sarah’s many, many boxes (which included her sudden gnome collection), but he truly wasn’t. He loved that Sarah and Victoria moved in with him. That way the two got to act super flirty with each other on a continual basis (check out Linsey and Paul’s exclusive interview here).
Later, the two hashed out what to do with their surplus of stuff — they agreed to downsize, minus Xander’s kilt trunk and Sarah’s Xander box. Those two things had to stay. Before the two headed to their rooms for the night, Xander grabbed Sarah’s arm. Instant sparks ignited and the two shared a heated kiss amongst the boxes.
Quickly, they brushed off their steamy kiss. They rationalized things because they didn’t move in together to get back together. They moved in so they could both be close to Victoria, and that’s what they had to remember.
Another day, another attempt at a dinner party. Thankfully, this one went more smoothly than Sloan and Eric’s. In fact, the group actually sat down and ate food. That’s progress.
Steve (Stephen Nichols) and Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) threw a dinner party that included Stephanie (Abigail Klein), Tripp (Lucas Adams), and Wendy (Victoria Grace). Everett (Blake Berris) was a latecomer to the evening. Steve instantly went on dad alert with the younger man, because he knew nothing about Stephanie’s relationship with him in Seattle.

However, the evening wasn’t without its awkward moments, courtesy of Steve’s relentless interrogation tactics. Steve seemed to zero in on Everett’s intentions. So he immediately wanted to know if Everett moved to Salem to be with his daughter.
Tripp provided a reprieve to Steve’s intense questioning when he and Wendy brought up some sort of geocache scavenger hunt. As a result, the group decided Valentine’s Day during American Heart Month would be a perfect time for Salem to partake in this fundraiser.
In other news, Steve gave Wendy his and Kayla’s official approval. He let her know they’re so happy she decided to stay in Salem.
While Stefan (Brandon Barash) told Gabi how much he missed her face during their brief call, Ava (Tamara Braun) and Harris (Steve Burton) met secretly at the docks. Harris wanted, no demanded, the truth from Ava. He could tell something was wrong. After all, she gave up the Mafia Princess gig a long time ago. But Ava continued to lie to Harris’s face.
Harris tried everything to get Ava to open up. Unfortunately, she didn’t budge. When Stefan interrupted their conversation on the docks, he dragged her back into The Bistro. Harris followed, wanting Ava to come with him instead of staying with Stefan. He said he could protect her.
A desperate Stefan did what he had to do to protect their secret. He grabbed Ava and kissed her, causing Harris to back off. He was sickened over the fact that Stefan cheated on his incarcerated wife. When Ava insisted what she and Stefan had was something they couldn’t fight, Harris told them they deserved each other and walked out.
An angry Ava felt Stefan went over the top. But Stefan didn’t care because it got the job done. After all, it was simply for show. Also, Ava needed to find a way to let that all go. Because Harris wasn’t her friend. Stefan reminded her that Harris had the power to bury them.
