Chad DiMera Returns

Let’s start off with some exciting news. Chad is finally coming back to Salem. While the character will be back, it won’t be with Billy Flynn’s face.

The old Chad is now playing Cane Ashby on The Young and the Restless.

In an interesting twist, Y&R’s Chance Chancellor is now the new Chad on DOOL.

Moving forward, Chad and Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) will have an uncomfortable reunion.

Gabi Hernandez’s Romance

Over with Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez), she couldn’t get Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) to open up very much. Gabi did read a page from Theo’s journal that he accidentally left at Brady’s Pub, though.

Theo was pretty clever in his wording, so it doesn’t say he is talking about Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford). The words that were visible on the screen mentioned Theo having dreams about “her.”

A bit later, Gabi will enjoy some romance with Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier).

Leo Starker Stalks

Days of Our Lives spoilers for Tuesday, April 21 reveal that Leo has found out that Javi is already moving on.

Javi reconnected with an old friend from the firehouse, and they are now dating. Leo decides to find out exactly who this guy is and starts stalking him online.

EJ DiMera’s Eviction

Over at the DiMera mansion, someone gets the boot! Gwen will have officially overstayed her welcome.

EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) ends up telling the schemer to get out.

A bit later, Gwen is moping in Horton Town Square.

That is when Leo approaches, wanting to know if she has any dirt on EJ.

Theo Carver’s Hope

Back over with Theo, expect him to continue to think about his mother. This is a huge secret to keep, but the most painful part is the waiting.

Lexie is caught somewhere between life and death.

There is also the concern that Lexie might not be the same when she wakes up.

It was rather unfair of EJ to put this on Theo, so stay tuned.
