- Amy’s grief pushes her toward revenge.
- Tate pressures Holly to make the right choice.
Marlena Pushes EJ for Answers
Marlena (Deidre Hall) takes matters into her own hands when she hypnotizes EJ (Dan Feuerriegel). With so many unanswered questions still surrounding Salem’s growing chaos, Marlena appears determined to pull the truth out of him one way or another. Of course, hypnosis and EJ DiMera rarely sound like a safe combination.
EJ has spent months keeping secrets, manipulating situations, and dodging accountability whenever possible. Now, Marlena may finally help him to confront memories or truths he’s buried. Whether EJ remembers is another story entirely, but this session had all the makings of a disaster waiting to happen.
Theo Refuses to Let Paulina Fall Apart
Theo (Tyler Joseph Andrews) steps in to comfort Paulina (Jackée Harry) after her heartbreaking decision to step aside for Lexie (Nikki Crawford). While Paulina tries putting on a brave face, Theo knows exactly how much she is sacrificing for the people she loves.
At the same time, Theo finds himself caught in the middle of an increasingly emotional family situation. Lexie’s return has already turned multiple lives upside down, and Theo clearly isn’t prepared to simply pretend everything was fine. Paulina may have agreed to walk away, but that doesn’t mean the fallout has stopped hurting.
Amy’s Grief Turns Dangerous
Amy (Shi Ne Nielson) struggles to keep her grief from consuming her completely. After everything that’s happened surrounding Sophia’s (Rachel Boyd) disappearance, Amy seems ready to channel her pain into revenge instead of healing.
That could create major problems for everyone around her. Salem has seen grief spiral into obsession many times before, and Amy looks dangerously close to crossing lines she may never be able to come back from.
Tate Pushes Holly to Do the Right Thing
Meanwhile, Tate (Leo Howard) urges Holly (Ashley Puzemis) to make the right decision before things spiral even further out of control. Holly has been carrying enormous emotional weight lately, and Tate clearly fears she is about to make a choice she’ll regret.
