Kristen DiMera’s Proposal

Let’s start off with Kristen, who pulled the plug on Peter Blake (Dan Gauthier). However, Peter woke up instead of dying. Then, he immediately kicked Kristen out of his hospital room.

A few moments later, Kayla Johnson (Mary Beth Evans) notified Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) that Peter was awake.

However, there was a code blue coming from Peter’s room as Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) snuck in. Next, expect Kristen to make some kind of proposal to Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering).

Theo Carver’s New Reality

Over in another hospital room, Theo is finally awake after Peter’s crypt attack. However, the young man will have a new reality to face.

It seems that Theo will struggle over what it really means to be part of the DiMera family. Theo needs to understand that it means he could be targeted in the future.

Stephanie Johnson Explodes

Days of Our Lives spoilers for tomorrow’s episode reveal that Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) took matters into his own hands.

The young man told Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) to cancel Stephanie Johnson’s (Abigail Klein) book tour. Xander thought that was a bit extreme and suggested security. However, that’s not good enough for Alex.

The problem is that Alex keeps doing things like this without Stephanie’s approval or knowledge. Stephanie has made it very clear that she’s independent and will make her own decisions. Xander is right that Alex doesn’t know very much about women!

Gabi Hernandez’s Plans

Finally, Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) and Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) will make plans. However, Gabi is still keeping a huge secret from Philip. When the truth finally comes out, will Gabi once again lose a romance?
