Amy Choi’s Horror

Let’s start off with Amy, who will get a troubling update from Jada. The commissioner tells the mother all about Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) fate.

While nobody has been found yet, the prints on the railing match Sophia’s.

Jada also warns Amy that the blood could also be a match for Sophia.

That would suggest she did commit suicide.

However, once Amy gets over the shock, she could look for someone to blame.

Complicated Grief

Over with Tate Black (Leo Howard), Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis), and Ari Horton (Vico Escorcia) deal with Sophia’s possible suicide.

Holly will feel guilty about telling Sophia she wished she was dead.

Tate and Ari will also have complicated feelings. At one time a long time, they were all friends.

Stephanie Johnson Confides

Days of Our Lives spoilers for Tuesday, May 5 reveal that Stephanie will open up to someone about her messy feelings.

Thankfully, she turns to a trusted family member and not another man.

Stephanie will open up to Julie about what’s going on with her, Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson), and Joy Wesley (AlexAnn Hopkins).

Joy Wesley’s Decision

Once Alex gets the paternity test back, he will learn that he is Kelsey Wesley’s father.

In a preview clip, we can see Alex sitting down with Joy at a table.

Alex asks Joy to stay in town. Of course, Alex just wants to build a relationship with his child.

However, this could make Stephanie’s own feelings even messier.

Advising Gabi Hernandez

Over with Stefano DiMera’s (Joseph Mascolo) will reading, Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) will make a claim.

The will reading won’t be until later this week.

However, Gabi likely plans to announce that she is not Stefan DiMera’s (Brandon Barash) ex-wife, but his widow.

So, that will throw another monkey wrench into EJ DiMera’s (Dan Feuerriegel) plans.

Of course, Gabi would have to find a way to prove it.

The last I heard, Gabi said the handwriting expert said the divorce paper signatures were inconclusive.

So, how is she going to prove that she’s entitled to a piece of the DIMera pie?
