The Days of our Lives sneak peek photos for July 31 reveal that it’s time up for Kristen and Lexie to leave town, but in true soap fashion, so many things get in the way of their plan. Finding Gwen also remains a priority as Leo and Rafe continue their search in very different ways.
Key Takeaways
- Kristen has one last moment with EJ.
- Lexie says goodbye to Abe.
- Javie and Gus can’t escape Leo.
Lexie and Kristen Prepare to Leave Salem
Sneak peek photos reveal that Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) spends time with EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) at the DiMera mansion. They face off in a photo as Kristen perhaps confronts him about his plan.
In another photo, EJ hands Kristen a drink. Kristen accepts because, in a different picture, she’s holding it as she talks with her brother. DAYS spoilers tease that the DiMera siblings have an honest moment, and this seems to be it.
Meanwhile, Lexie (Nikki Crawford) gets a surprise gift from Abe (James Reynolds) and Theo (Tyler Joseph Andrew). It’s a necklace that Theo puts on his mother as Abe looks on.
Abe comforts Lexis after she tears up when they are all alone. Lexie and Abe are also shown in a touching embrace, and enjoying a sweet moment on the couch. Other photos show Lexie alone and emotional as she touches the necklace.
Things Don’t Go As Planned
Kristen gets drugged in what looks like Salem park by a mystery man in a leather jacket as he puts a gag in her mouth and takes her to the Salem airfield. With her hands tied up and no way to speak, the man holds Kristen outside a shipping container.
Another photo shows Kristen inside the container, looking scared. The mystery man walks away, leaving Kristen behind. Somehow, Kristen manages to get the gag off and free her hands in a photo where she’s listening inside the container.
It is likely Lexie who arrives at the airfield for the swap. Lexie’s clearly struggling in the photo as she attempts to make her way to her sister. One photo shows Lexie lying on the ground unconscious. The question is, does she get to Kristen before she passes out?
Rita Meets Up With EJ
Back at the DiMera mansion, Rita (Maggie Carney) sneaks out of the tunnels to talk with EJ. In one photo, it seems like EJ’s recovering from a slap, and Rita may have been the one to do it.
The two of them are having a tense conversation in one sneak peek. Another reveals that Rita doesn’t seem happy with her boss.
EJ is left alone with his thoughts, too. The DiMera heir looks at Stefano’s (Joseph Mascolo) portrait, no doubt to have a conversation with his father, and justifying his actions.
More Scenes From Salem
Abe spots Theo having a talk with Paulina (Jackée Harry) in Horton Town Square. Paulina isn’t thrilled when Abe approaches them and spots baby Trey (Joseph Ihlenf and Jordan Perdue). In fact, his presence seems to lead to Paulina’s exit with the little boy.
Speaking of uncomfortable encounters, Leo (Greg Rikaart) has another one with Javi (Jacob Martinez) and Gus (Michael Ocampo) in Horton Town Square. No doubt it has to do with Leo’s search for a missing Gwen (Emily O’Brien).
Gus and Javi get some alone time at Small Bar, where they share a kiss. They even seem to be having some fun together in one photo.
At the Brady Pub, Chad (Conner Floyd) and Rafe (Galen Gering) are engaged in a conversation. They are most likely talking about Gwen and Leo’s desperate search to find her. DAYS preview video did reveal that Leo gets Chad involved in the situation.
