Days of our Lives Spoilers November 5: Vivian is Front and Center in Salem

Days of our Lives spoilers for Tuesday, November 5, are a refresher course on why the rest of the world has the best duck and cover whenever Vivian is in town. But maybe not this time…?

Keep Away

Kate (Lauren Koslow) has been fighting Vivian (Louise Sorel) for Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) since “their” son was just a bunch of cells in a petri dish. Vivian stole Kate and Victor’s (John Aniston) embryo, and she and Philip have had a connection ever since.

Does it matter that Kate went out of her way to protect her son from being punished for faking his death and trying to frame Brady (Eric Martsolf) for it? Nah. She’s still a bad mommy because…reasons?

On the other hand, Vivian is helping Philip take their father’s company away from Xander (Paul Telfer). She really loves him! Yeah, Kate isn’t feeling it. She needs to have a few words with Vivian. As does Jada (Elia Cantu)… Doesn’t Vivian have several outstanding warrants out for her?

I Know Something You Don’t Know

Holly (Ashley Puzemis) has decided she was wrong to blame Tate (Leo Howard) for something his father (didn’t) do. She has forgiven herself for it, so Tate must forgive her, too, right? Then, they can get back together and pretend their little breakup never happened.

Will she be just as game to pretend that Tate sleeping with Sophia (Madelyn Keintz) never happened, either? Sure, she doesn’t know that it happened yet. But Sophia is just aching to fill her former bestie in. Meanwhile, Tate wonders what he’s gotten himself into and turns to Brady for advice. That would be the Brady who has never had a single, decent, functional relationship in his life. We’re sure he’ll just be a font of actionable advice.
