Paulina Price’s Sympathy

Let’s start off with Paulina Price (Jackee Harry), who will spend some time with Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall).

Now that they know Marlena’s true diagnosis, she has been released from the hospital. Paulina might consider this great news, but Marlena’s relief is overshadowed by guilt.

Marlena will open up to Paulina about her secret. Paulina has had her fair share of family feuds from well-intentioned secrets herself.

So, she will understand that Marlena meant well, even if she doesn’t mention the shooting or Rachel Black’s (Alice Hasley) name.

Paulina might reassure Marlena that forgiveness takes time.

Belle Black’s Legal Advice

As for Brady, he will get some advice from Belle Black (Martha Madison). Brady might mention that Rachel’s new friend at Bayview is none other than Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd). Of course, Brady might talk to Belle about how hard it will be during the holidays without his little girl.

Tate Black’s Bad News

Days of Our Lives spoilers for the next episode reveal that Tate will deliver some bad news to Holly. Fans know that Holly was going to join Nicole Walker Brady (Arianne Zucker) in Paris for Christmas.

Holly invited Tate to come with her and he agreed. However, Rachel being in Bayview with Sophia as well as Tate’s flunking grades could mean some cancelled plans.

Of course, Holly will understand even though it will be disappointing. It will also give Sophia a chance to come up with a plan during her next escape.

DiMera Kidnapper Identified

As for the crypt, the kidnapper will finally be revealed. Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) and Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) were kidnapped from separate continents.

Then, Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) and Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) were next. Finally, EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) and Peter Blake (Dan Gauthier) were deposited into the crypt with the other hostages.

Now that Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) has collapsed from her infection and fever, things are getting dire. If she doesn’t get medical attention soon, she will die. Who will save them and will the rescue come in time?!
