Days of our Lives spoilers for Wednesday, August 5, reach the end of Lexie and Kristen’s confounding plan as Lexie says a secret farewell to her loved ones, and Theo whines to Stephanie about his latest beef with the universe.
Key Takeaways
- Lexie is done with her time in Salem.
- Theo fills Stephanie in on his troubles.
- Alex begs Joy to give in to his demands.
- EJ breaks the bad news to Johnny.
- Paulina needs Lani’s support.
Lexie’s Final Goodbye Arrives Sooner Than Expected
We wondered how Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) and Lexie (Nikki Crawford) would pull off their kidnaping switch-a-roo, what with them being two different women who look nothing alike. The ruse ended even more quickly than we expected when EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) took one look at his sleeping sister and instantly realized Lexie wasn’t Kristen.
He agreed to go along with helping Lexie crawl off and die, in any case, so now she can say her final good-byes to Abe (James Reynolds) and Theo (Tyler Joseph Andrews).
Stephanie Listens to Theo’s List of Complaints
The world isn’t going the way Theo would like. He doesn’t get to just say what he wants at work, and everyone hops to it. He actually has to explain himself. And Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) refuses to fall madly in love with him, no matter how many times he yells at her for not trusting what a wonderful guy he is.
Finally, his parents actually have feelings and opinions of their own. Whatever happened to indulging Theo’s every whim, like when he was a kid? This adulting thing is hard. And Stephanie (Abigail Klein) is the ideal person for him to unload about it to.
Alex Presses Joy About Kelsey’s Custody
Joy (AlexAnn Hopkins) won’t sign any papers saying that Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) and Stephanie can raise Kelsey if anything happens to Joy. This makes Alex mad. Joy was about to change her mind, thanks to Belle (Martha Madison), but then Stephanie yelled at her, and Joy dug in her heels.
So now it’s up to Alex to swerve from begging to threatening, and everything in between. And if that doesn’t work, maybe he can show Joy his abs. They seem super powerful.
EJ and Paulina Stress Over Their Children
Johnny (Carson Boatman) agreed to keep his mouth shut about DiMera’s tainted drug scandal. Now EJ has more bad news for his painfully naive son.
At the same time, Johnny’s mother-in-law, Paulina (Jackée Harry), is so upset over Chanel’s (Raven Bowens) health that she needs her elder daughter, Lani (Sal Stowers), to talk her down.
