Next on Days of our Lives
Leo (Greg Rikaart) is Leo’s biggest fan. He can do no wrong, and everything he does is not only brilliant but downright inspired. Every once in a while, however, Leo remembers all the horrible things he’s done, and wonders if maybe – just maybe – karma might be coming for him and his well-lotioned skin. He figures having Dimitri (Peter Porte) dump him should have reset the register in Leo’s favor again. But what if it didn’t? What if Leo and Javi (Al Calderon) aren’t destined to live happily ever after, through, obviously, no fault of Leo’s own. Leo doesn’t know if he’ll be able to handle that. He’s starting to spiral! Oh, no, stop the world, Leo wants to get off! He needs some positive reinforcement and the reassurance that he’s the best. Good thing Marlena (Deidre Hall) exists specifically for that purpose.
Girls Just Want to Have… Revenge
Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) and Gwen (Emily O’Brien) already bonded over being DiMera wife cast-offs. But now that Gwen is going to Leo’s wedding, and Gabi has been told by Rafe (Galen Gering) that Stefan (Brandon Barash) is dead, they have so much more in common. (Though we’re not sure what Vivian’s [Louise Sorel] photo of Stefan’s alleged tombstone proves… except that Vivian has learned how to use Photoshop. She once buried a woman alive. We’re sure she can figure out some key commands.)
Happy Wife, Happy Life
Chanel (Raven Bowens) doesn’t want Johnny (Carson Boatman) to be CEO of DiMera. Johnny told her he’s going to keep at it for a while longer, while Theo (Tyler Joseph Andrews) remains hospitalized. Chanel is unhappy. Her mother always does whatever Chanel wants. Why won’t her husband?’
