Sarah Horton Kiriakis Grilled

Let’s start off with Sarah, who is keeping a huge secret. The good doctor knows the truth about Sophia’s baby.

While she agreed to keep quiet, she has been getting closer to Brady Black (Eric Martsolf). The lady has also seen firsthand how tormented Tate Black (Leo Howard) is about the baby.

As the week progresses, Sarah’s guilt could get to her. In fact, by the end of the week, expect Sarah to get questioned by Brady.

Sophia Choi Pressured

Meanwhile, Sophia is starting to crack under all the secrecy, guilt, and pressure. However, each time the teenager thought about confessing, Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) had a solution for every problem.

Sophia can’t take it anymore, so the secret needs to come out soon. On Friday’s episode, expect Sarah to encourage Sophia to fess up.
