On the May 11 episode of Days of our Lives, once he realized that Lexie was really back from the dead, Chad asked EJ if that meant Abigail could be brought back, too? EJ denied. But since when do soaps work that way? Why we think this means Jack and Jennifer’s little girl, Thomas and Charlotte’s mother, and oh, yeah, the love of Chad’s life, is on her way back to Salem.
Key Takeaways
- Chad asked if Abigail could be brought back
- EJ said she’d have had to be preserved immediately after death
- So why is Abigail’s body missing?
It’s So Nice To Have You Back Where You Belong
Chad (then-Billy Flynn) already believed that his Abigail (Marci Miller) was back from the dead when Cat (AnnaLynn McCord) pretended to be Chad’s (now-Conner Floyd, who teased Chad’s spiraling over potential Abigail return) late wife under Clyde’s (James Read) orders. That turned out to be a con. But Chad obviously hasn’t given up hope, as he asked EJ whether Abigail might be brought back the same way that Lexie (Nikki Campbell) had been. EJ claimed that Lexie only got her Lazarus-level miracle because her body had been preserved immediately after death. EJ reminded that it hadn’t been done to Abigail.
Missing in Action
But if that’s the case, then where is Abigail’s body? Why isn’t it in her grave? Sure, we can dismiss it as just being part of Clyde’s evil plot. But doesn’t it seem more likely that Abigail was exhumed as yet another one of Dr. Rolf’s (Richard Wharton) guinea pigs? After all, there was no guarantee that the experiment with Lexie would succeed. Wouldn’t they need backup plans? And who better than another DiMera? Sure, Abigail wasn’t a DiMera by blood. But she was a DiMera wife, a DiMera mother, and conveniently dead. Dr. Rolf would have been a fool not to get his hands on her. And Chad is no fool for holding out hope.
