On the May 7 episode of Days of our Lives, Gabi ordered Ari to stay away from Liam. In the same episode, Gabi received a phone call from her latest squeeze, Philip, who promised a big surprise for her when he returned home from his business trip. Do we have a surprise Philip could give Gabi… which would add so much drama to Gabi and Ari’s Liam conflict?
Key Takeaways
- Gabi thinks Liam is trouble for Ari
- Gabi is in love with Philip
- What if Liam turns out to be Philip’s long-lost son?
Buying a Clue
It was only earlier this week that Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) urged Gabi (Cheri Jimenez) to reconsider coming down on Ari (Vico Escorcia) for wanting a relationship with Liam (Hank Northrop, who teased Liam’s future), pointing out that the more Gabi insists, the more Ari will likely rebel. And then, somewhat randomly, Philip told Gabi that he was, in fact, a dad. There was the kid he gave up for adoption because Philip just didn’t feel like parenting. His name is Tyler, by the way.
All Grown Up
Tyler should be a grown man by now. You know, about Liam’s age…. How soapy would it be if Liam turns out to be Philip’s long-lost son? Liam mentioned that he had a rough upbringing with his aunt. Philip placed Tyler for adoption with a loving adoptive family. But is it that hard to believe that they might have died when Liam was still very young? And that he ended up with an aunt who changed his first and last name, well, because she could? She could have given him her last name to make life easier, and, for all we know, Liam is the middle name Tyler was always called. So there, that’s settled.
Imagine the Possibilities
Gabi is very anti-Liam now. But how would she feel if he turned out to be Philip’s son? Philip is already on the kids’ side. This would pit him and his offspring directly against Gabi and hers. How soapy! And if Philip is Liam’s father, he is also Gage’s grandfather. Philip will skill straight from Dad to grandad. That would be hilarious! And let’s not forget that would make Liam Kate’s (Lauren Koslow) grandson. Ooooh… a fresh chance for her to control someone else’s life!
