On Monday, April 23, 2018, Days of Our Lives exploded when Chad (Billy Flynn) discovered his wife, Abigail ([Marci Miller] who’s been suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder [DID] after the death of Andre DiMera [Thaao Penghlis]), in bed with his brother, Stephan (Tyler Christopher). Abigail’s alter, Gabby (a lookalike from Gabi (Camila Banus)—Abigail’s friend, who has been convicted of Andre’s murder).
After Chad gets a text from Kate (Lauren Koslow) about seeing Abigail, complete with dark wig, in Stephan’s bedroom, Chad rushes home. That’s when he gets the shock of his life! Filled with rage thinking Stephan somehow brainwashed Abigail, yet not realizing his wife’s mental illness, unleashes his rage on Stephan and literally beats Stephan within an inch of his life while a horrid Abigail/Gabby looks on. After Gabby/Abigail leaves Chad decides to finish the job and continue beating Stephan until Hope and Rafe (Kristian Alfonso and Galen Gering, respectively), who have just found evidence it was Abigail who masqueraded as Gabi, find Chad beating Stephan.
While the scene was disturbing to watch, kudos goes out to Flynn for excellent portrayal of a man driven to rage at the discovery of seeing his wife in bed with his brother. Christopher and Miller also are due praise for their performances as well, especially Miller for a great job tacking DID with 2 alters.
That is not the only violence that happened that day…Gabi, in prison for the murder (although innocent) or Andre DiMera, received a beating from an inmate with an ax to grind—she turned out to be the girlfriend of Com. Raines, who was seeking revenge.
Tune in weekdays on NBC to see what happens next!!!!
