On the June 1 episode of Days of our Lives, Jada asked Johnny if he could think of anyone who knew that Chanel and Trey would be out of the house on the day Sophia tried to kill him. Johnny said it was only family. But what if he tries to suspect that his family was exactly who wanted to see him dead? Or at least scared straight?
Key Takeaways:
- Johnny and Sophia were set up
- Viewers know Kristen did it
- What if Johnny suspects it was EJ?
I Love It When a Plan Comes Together
Jada (Elia Cantu) was right to be curious: How did Sophia (Rachel Boyd) know that Johnny (Carson Boatman, who spoke out after his DAYS exit) would be home — and Chanel (Raven Bowens) and Trey in Chicago at the aquarium with Lani (Sal Stowers), Jules, and Carver — when she came over to blow him up? Johnny told Jada that only family knew—Paulina (Jackée Harry), Abe (James Reynolds), and Eli (Lamon Archey). Johnny didn’t mention his aunt Kristen (Stacy Haiduk), even though viewers knew she was behind it all as part of her plan to get back at Sophia and EJ (Dan Feuerriegel). Because Johnny has no reason to think she’d want to hurt him. But what if Johnny decides that EJ does?
Threat Level
Johnny knows that EJ loves him. In his EJ sort of way. Johnny knows that EJ wouldn’t try to kill him. But Johnny also knows that EJ thinks he knows what’s best for Johnny. And EJ thinks what would be best for Johnny is for Johnny to be the head of the DiMera family. What if Johnny decides that EJ was so eager to make Johnny follow in his father’s footsteps that he thought he’d scare his son into running back to the protective arms of the DiMera family? If Johnny thought he couldn’t take care of his family, he might turn to EJ for help. And EJ would have Johnny right where he wants him. Johnny doesn’t always make the best deductions. This is exactly the sort of theory he’d come up with.
