Days of our Lives spoilers for Friday, June 19, end the week with Chad and Theo putting on their Hardy Boys hats in order to figure out why Stefano left Marlena a chessboard with a missing pawn.
Key Takeaways
- Chad and Theo play “Elementary, my dear Marlena.”
- Johnny goes to EJ with intel
- Kristen ignores Lani’s questions
- Paulina sees her husband — and his wife
- Holly needs to be the center of attention
Chad and Theo Chase Stefano’s Final Secret
Belle (Martha Madison) and Chad (Conner Floyd) agreed to investigate Stefano’s (Joseph Mascolo) last gift to Marlena (Deidre Hall).
So why is Theo (Tyler Joseph Andrews) honing in? He sounds like the worst kind of partner for Chad. Theo is judgmental, and he adores his late “No-No,” so how useful could he be at finding the actual truth?
Johnny Brings EJ a Dangerous Advantage
Johnny (Carson Boatman) went back to working for his dad. And while Johnny loves to stomp his feet and make frowny faces about what a bad man EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) is (unless he needs EJ to do something bad for Johnny, then he quickly gets over it), when he hears someone else plotting against him, Johnny goes running to EJ with what he’s learned.
Lani Pushes Kristen for Answers
Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) can lie to anyone and feel not a smidge of guilt about it. But Kristen only has one friend: Lani (Sal Stowers). (Well, Kristen thinks Gwen [Emily O’Brien] is her friend, too. But that won’t last once Gwen finds out Kristen is sleeping with Xander [Paul Telfer]. And the fact that Kristen is sleeping with Xander suggests she and Gwen aren’t really friends.) So when Lani has questions for Kristen, it’s harder to blow her off.
Paulina Faces a Painful Anniversary
It’s Juneteenth. It’s also Abe (James Reynolds) and Paulina’s (Jackée Harry) wedding anniversary. Except they’re not together anymore. So when Paulina goes to celebrate — the national holiday — she’s not thrilled to run into Abe… and Lexie (Nikki Crawford).
Holly Struggles to Move Forward
Holly (Ashley Puzemis) is already so upset about Sophia’s (Rachel Boyd) death — and how it affects Holly. So you can imagine how hysterical she gets when something reminds her of it. Quick, Tate (Leo Howard), Ari (Vico Escorcia), and Aaron (Louis Tomeo), drop everything and make her feel better about herself!
