Days of our Lives spoilers for Thursday, July 3, head into the holiday long weekend with Jada and Shawn making some fireworks of their own. Plus, out of options, EJ turns to Johnny.
Key Takeaways
- Shawn and Jada declare their independence.
- EJ needs his son’s assistance.
- Trey turns 1.
- Marlena worries about Belle.
Shawn and Jada Finally Stop Fighting Their Feelings
Jada (Elia Cantu) and Shawn (Brandon Beemer) have been pretending to be just friends for months now. We didn’t believe it. We didn’t believe that they believed it, either. Sure, Shawn moved into Jada’s apartment so she could take care of him while he recovered from being shot. Sure, that was all there was to it.
This weekend, America is celebrating Independence Day. And Jada and Shawn can declare their independence from pretending. Let the good times roll!
EJ Asks Johnny to Protect the DiMera Family
EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) confessed to Johnny (Carson Boatman) that run-off from tainted DiMera chemicals had tainted the water at Smith Island. And now EJ needs his son to thank EJ for his honesty by helping the family cover up.
Johnny hates it when EJ lies. So EJ didn’t lie. EJ told the truth. Doesn’t Johnny want to encourage his father to do more of that — by doing what EJ says?
Trey’s Birthday Brings Joy With a Shadow
Johnny has fatherly duties of his own to attend to. It’s Trey’s first birthday, and family members are getting together to celebrate. We hope they’ll take a moment to remember Sophia (Rachel Boyd), the scared teenager who gave birth to Trey all on her own a year ago.
As far as they know, Sophia was so despondent that she committed suicide. Their current happiness only happened because of this girl’s tragedy, which Johnny and Chanel (Raven Bowens) were a part of making worse.
Marlena Fears Stefano’s Endgame Is Just Beginning
Belle (Martha Madison) is working with Chad (Conner Floyd) to figure out the mystery Stefano (Joseph Mascolo) left for Marlena (Deidre Hall). This makes Marlena worry. Stefano had never done anything for no reason. And his reasons have never been good.
