Days Of Our Lives' Spoilers Thursday, August 13: Dimitri’s Deception, Marlena Spills, Steve To The Rescue Days of Our Lives spoilers are in for Thursday, August 13, 2026. In tomorrow’s episode, we will see Dimitri von Leuschner (Peter Porte) make a decision about Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart).

Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) spills the truth. Plus, Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) comes to Alex Kiriakis’ (Robert Scott Wilson) rescue.

Keep reading to find out what is coming up in the Peacock soap opera.

Key Takeaways

  • Dimitri won’t want to give up revenge on Gwen, but he also can’t give up on his reunion with Leo; what will his decision on Leo’s deal be, and will he try to deceive his ex?
  • Marlena and Paulina catch up and lean on each other – will Marlena spill about Lexie’s whereabouts, as Paulina is concerned?
  • Alex will reach out for help, and Steve will come to his rescue!

Difficult Decision

Let’s start with Alamania. Dimitri already had one hostage, then two; now there is more than a crowd. Leo has given his ex an offer that he hopes will save everyone.

Even though they are exes, it wouldn’t be hard for Leo to fall in love with Dimitri again. At the same time, Dimitri is probably too smart to fall for this deal. 

If Dimitri accepts the deal, he finally gets Leo back. However, he will lose the chance to get revenge on Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien). 

Spilling Secrets

Back in Salem, expect Marlena and Paulina Price (Jackee Harry) to get caught up. While they will try to support each other, Marlena has been privy to quite a few secrets lately.

Most of these secrets center around Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford). Although Marlena promised to stay quiet, her moral code might push her to talk.

I wonder if Marlena is going to tell Paulina about the information she learned from Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord)?

If Marlena does tell Theo about Lexie being in the DiMera tunnels, she might not be able to say how she came across the intel.

So, Cat will be protected for now. However, right before EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) got sick, he seemed to imply he knew the truth about Cat, then he suddenly redirected.

So, I wonder what that was about. Could EJ already know the truth, but is leading Cat on for some reason? Is it just part of the sickness? Is EJ being poisoned, and could Cat get accused?

What Else to Expect

Days of Our Lives spoilers for Thursday, August 13 reveal that Alex will turn to Steve for help. Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) has already agreed to move out, but it’s not the end of the marriage.

Stephanie might mean well, but I wonder if she could just be pushing Alex even closer to Joy Wesley (AlexAnn Hopkins).

While Joy does have a legit medical problem, you better believe she will use this opportunity to her advantage, so stay tuned!
