Weekly Recaps & Spoilers: October 28-November 1, 2024

 


Days of Our Lives – Peacock

Recaps

“Abigail” reveals she is Cat Greene, and her mother is the very much alive Caterina! Chad is about to have his heart ripped out as the truth about “Abigail” is finally revealed. When Marlena and Kayla sit down to catch up with one another, one of the hottest topics is Kristen’s feelings for (dare we say “obsession with”?) Brady. Speaking of Brady, he pays a visit to Sarah and makes it clear he does not blame her for what went down between them. Xander may want to think twice before accepting the offer he’s about to receive. Why? Well, it’s from Kristen, and that alone makes it potentially dangerous!

Johnny unknowingly vents to Chloe’s sister Joy about Chanel, just as Joy’s mother, Nancy, tries to get her a job on Body and Soul. Justin and Alex have a long chat about the younger man’s job, not to mention his relationship with and feelings for Stephanie. At the same time, Jada has a few words of advice for Steph regarding her feelings for the hunk. Why is Johnny lying to his wife?!?

Marlena suspects that something is wrong with Johnny. But can she get him to open up? The subject of sex on the set of Body and Soul becomes a hot topic when Leo sits down to talk with Stephanie and Paulina! Johnny is in for a surprise if Alex and Chanel’s plans go as expected. (Then again, how often does that happen in Salem?) Bonnie comes through for Nancy by convincing Abe he should allow Joy to audition for a part.

The daughter of Stephen Nichols “say yes” — and on her parents’ anniversary, too!

Johnny is both shocked and mortified by what he learns about Chanel and Alex. Meanwhile, Paulina takes Abe to task, saying that he’s the reason her daughter’s having marital issues! Stephanie’s head is on the chopping block. Can Alex convince Kate not to lower the axe? Remember the curse Hattie placed on Body and Soul? Leo does… and he tells Bonnie that it’s coming true!

A masked man attacks Stefan, Melinda forces EJ to release Fiona, and Philip returns to thwart Xander and Kristen’s plans. Stefan and Gabi’s marriage is about to end in divorce. Or maybe not, given that one of them is having second thoughts. Will Kristen be able to help save the troubled marriage? Xander is still mulling over Kristen’s offer, but both his father and wife say he should think twice! Fiona may be in a rough position, but will she allow EJ to twist her arm?



Next Week

A new face arrives in Salem, as well as some familiar ones — plus, a Halloween-ish nightmare haunts one man, as a deadly offer is made.

Monday, October 28:

Gabi’s about to get some good news and some bad news. The good news is that her and Rafe’s cousin, Javi, is making his Salem debut! The bad? Vivian shows up in town just in time to stop Stefan from seeing his wife!

Also back in Salem? Philip! And he’s not wasting any time in foiling Xander’s plans.

Kristen’s never one to waste an opportunity, and Brady’s latest string of troubles are just what she needs to try making inroads with him!

Tuesday, October 29:

It’s time to fill our beloved Salemites in on the “Abigail” drama, which means Chad breaking the news to Julie that her cousin is not back from the dead, and Steve updating Marlena on Cat and Mark’s Clyde connections. We imagine she’ll be thrilled to learn John didn’t kill Catherina after all!

The Greene siblings, meanwhile, have failed in their mission, so it’s no wonder they’re worried about Clyde’s wrath.

It was eventual, but it’s still nice to see that Holly’s ready to forgive Eric.

Wednesday, October 30:

The “Abigail” fallout continues to reverberate through town as Kayla and Roman commiserate over the situation. And Chad’s about to get tough with Cat — but is it “throw her in prison tough, or just giving her a piece of his mind?”

Will Kristen soon be seeing red, since Brady’s bonding with Ava just as she’s trying to get back in his good graces?

Uh oh… Maggie encourages Holly to go after Tate. That’s all well and good, but since Sophia and Tate are admitting they have feelings for each other, there’s no way this is going to end well!



Thursday, October 31:

It’s Halloween in Salem, so someone was bound to have a nightmare — and it looks like Leo is this year’s (un)lucky recipient!

 Alex and Stephanie are about to learn the hard way to never mix business and pleasure as they navigate the fallout from their on-set encounter. And Johnny might want to brush up on his groveling as pleads he with Chanel for forgiveness.

We guess Nancy’s push worked, because Kate’s hiring Joy on Body and Soul!

Friday, November 1:

Holly’s on pins and needles as she waits to hear from Tate. Has she done too little, too late?

It looks like Victor’s sons are drawing lines in the sand as they fight over Titan, with Xander making Kristen a “deadly” offer, while Vivian’s scheming with Philip. Oh, this is going to get ugly.

Will Chanel give Johnny a second chance after the way he’s been acting? Kate’s certainly trying to convince her to. But it all may depend on if he can convince Joy to keep a secret.
