Weekly Recaps & Spoilers: September 8-12, 2025

 


Beyond the Gates

2 weeks ago…

Allison shows her cray-cray as the Dupree clan goes into rescue mode. In the wake of Chelsea’s kidnapping, the Dupree family becomes increasingly frantic. After everything their household has been through of late, Samantha and Martin carve out a little time for some much-needed bonding.

Allison gets rough with Chelsea — plus, Kat finds a clue! Things go from bad to worse where Chelsea’s situation is concerned. Will they improve when several family members decide to take matters into their own hands? Dani was not happy to see Andre and Ashley cozying up a while back. But now, the shoe is on the other foot when the hunk finds himself witnessing Dani and her ex, Bill, in a close moment!

Kat makes a bold move; Leslie gets carried away — literally! When Martin strikes a deal with the devil, will he come to regret having done so? Leslie manages to push more buttons and ruffle more feathers. Get your popcorn, kids! What has Madison issuing an apology for? In a time of crisis, Naomi is glad to have a man like Jacob to lean upon.

 Allison springs a wedding on Chelsea, Vanessa delays Leslie’s plans, and Ted faces Nicole’s ire. Does the news Vanessa has to share with the Duprees have anything to do with her new client, Leslie? When Kat joins Jacob in following a lead, will it lead to her finally seeing nemesis Leslie punished for her crimes? Derek opens up to Ashley.

Allison prepares to kill Chelsea — plus, Leslie gives Nicole shocking news! Think what the kidnapper has done so far was crazy? Wait until you hear what they’re going to demand next! Leslie is about to get a proposal from Ted. But we’re pretty sure it won’t be of the “marry me” variety! Tomas is there to offer a helping hand when Eva needs one. Martin is definitely not going to like the news his mom shares with him!

The Bold & the Beautiful

Last week…

Sheila warns Luna, and Beth takes Hope on a guilt trip. Will and Electra express their love for one another and decide that that very night will be the one they have sex for the first time. Sheila might as well be trying to convince a bird not to fly or a fish not to swim when she attempts to talk sense into Luna. The Liam/Hope/Carter triangle heats up — and her other ex isn’t even in the mix until Tuesday.

Thomas returns, and Luna takes a pregnancy test. Thomas returns to L.A. excited about Ridge and Taylor’s upcoming nuptials. But what about his own wedding to Paris? Is that still happening? Two seconds later, Thomas is ticked about Brooke’s efforts to win back Ridge and tells her in no uncertain terms to stay out of Mommy and Daddy’s affairs. At incalculably great risk, Li continues to hide Luna and reprimand her for her reckless behavior. This has to be an even bigger crime than the one Grace committed, right?

Thomas pressures Ridge, and Luna takes a page from Sheila’s past. Katie has a heart-to-heart with Brooke during which she insists that her sister must come clean to Taylor. Seems like old times as a father/son battle takes shape between Ridge and Thomas. As Li grows suspicious of Luna’s absences, might we suggest it’s time to lock her in? Handcuff her to the bed? Something?

Eric urges Ridge to dump Taylor, as she scrambles to set a wedding date. Eric urges Ridge not to base his future on Thomas or Steffy, insisting to the waffler that Brooke is the woman that he really wants. Perhaps sensing that her ship is sinking, Taylor pushes to set a wedding date asap.

Thomas warns Brooke, and Ridge breaks Taylor’s heart. If Ridge doesn’t know which way this is all headed, he’s the only one. Yet he’s conflicted over his feelings for Brooke and haunted by Eric’s words. Just rip off the Band-Aid, dude. Eric remains skeptical when he and Thomas compare notes about his parents and Brooke.

Coming up…

The “Tridge” wedding is the hot topic — as in, will it or won’t it happen?

Decidedly in favor of Ridge and Taylor, saying “I redo” is Thomas, who, since breaking up with Paris, has elevated his parents’ reunion to his top priority. How does he try to help? He lashes out at Brooke, telling her that his family would have been together all these years if it weren’t for her.

Not so in favor of the nuptials is… Ridge, who insists to his Doc that he’ll always love her, but he can’t retie the knot with her. Her response? She’s not going to let him do this. (For a world-renowned psychiatrist, she sure isn’t great at noticing the patterns she herself has fallen into.)

Over at Li’s, Luna’s grandma is reminding the double murderess and rapist that she’s not to go anywhere near Will Spencer. Of course, Luna’s smirk speaks volumes about how seriously she’s taking Li’s warning!

At the same time, Will is gazing at a picture of Electra’s discarded mask in text messages on his phone. “I just need to find out who’s doing this,” he says. But how? Liam has an idea about that. Using his computer skills, he seems to zero in on three apartments as being the one from which the text was sent.

Next thing we know, Will is at Li’s door — and entering the apartment, saying, “Come out. I need to speak with you.” And at that point, Luna’s smirk is gone, replaced by a panicked expression.



The Young & the Restless

Last week…

Kyle stuns Claire, and Nate walks out on Audra. From the moment Diane returned — both to Genoa City and from the dead — we suspected she wasn’t nearly as reformed as she claimed to be. Will Jack wind up feeling the same way after finally seeing his wife’s true colors? Kyle has an important question to ask Claire. And yes, it’s that question. Will he get the response he’s hoping for? One person who probably will not get the answer she’s looking for is Audra, who goes to Nate asking for a second chance. Good luck with that, hun.

Victor threatens Cane, and Claire turns down Kyle. Whoa! A massive plot has left Cane open to a deadly attack! If Cane thought Victor would be a pushover… well, we might have to question his sanity. The newly returned exec is about to learn the hard way what dealing with Victor is really like! Claire may not be the same dangerous woman we first met, but she still has a few tricks up her sleeve… as she catches Kyle off guard! Amanda and Phyllis haven’t seen eye-to-eye on everything of late, but the legal eagle is still ready to take a risk for her gal pal.

Kyle wants Audra gone, Claire presses Holden for intel, and Billy asks Sally to move in. Kyle gets a bit of advice from his parents. (Although with their track record, he might consider doing the opposite of whatever they recommend!) Watch out, Audra, because two people (Holden and Claire) who aren’t particularly thrilled with you right now are about to team up… and we’ll give you one guess who their target is! It sounds as if things are about to get pretty serious between Billy and Sally as he makes a commitment!

Audra and Claire nearly come to blows, Cane makes Michael an offer, and Nikki surprises Victor. Victor is usually the one making grand gestures, but Nikki turns the tables on him with a splashy, romantic evening! How will Michael feel about the new opportunity that is about to lay itself at his feet? Claire and Audra face off!

Victor gears up for war, Nick gets marching orders, and Phyllis feels Cane’s wrath. If it’s a day of the week ending with a Y, then Victor must be preparing to lead the Newman clan onto the proverbial battlefield! Never one for subtlety, Phyllis winds up overplaying her hand. If Cane takes Lily’s advice to lay it all on the table, will that score him points with his ex?

Coming up…

Kyle and Claire’s sitch goes from bad to worse, Cane rains on Billy and Sally’s parade, and it sounds like a battle’s brewing between Audra and Holden.

Monday, September 8:

Victor surprises Claire with damaging information about Kyle. Or should we say “more damaging information about Kyle”?

As many before her have done and many after her are sure to, Sally questions Billy’s decision-making.

Rather than trade witty remarks, Audra and Holden exchange threats.

Tuesday, September 9

Nick warns Phyllis about Cane’s latest project. Cue her turning a deaf ear in three, two…

Kyle and Claire have difficulty finding common ground.

Mariah confesses. But is it the confession… and the one that might save her marriage?

Wednesday, September 10:

Jack is concerned about a cryptic message.

Party pooper Cane ruins Billy and Sally’s big night.

Determined to make things happen rather than let them happen to her, Phyllis takes control.

Thursday, September 11:

Jack has questions galore, but what he wants are answers — from Billy.

Nick shares a secret with Sharon.

Phyllis gives Sally a bit of unsolicited advice.

Friday, September 12:

Victor and Michael settle unfinished business.

Though his previous ones have seemed fairly disastrous, intrepid Cane makes a new alliance. Might it be this disgruntled and dangerous woman?!

Shows how far Sally’s come that she faces an ethical dilemma. Once upon a time, being unethical wouldn’t have given her a moment’s pause.

Kai and Trina hide in Drew’s bedroom as someone shoots Drew in the back, twice! Fresh off having threatened to kill Drew, Carly finds herself issuing yet another warning! Despite everything going on, Elizabeth finds herself signing on to #TeamWillow. (And no, that’s not the upsetting news that Michael receives.) Sonny has to deliver a bit of grim news… but to whom?

Drew lives and is rushed into surgery, and Britt calls Jason for help. Lucas pulls Elizabeth aside to give her a word of warning. Portia has something to say. How will her announcement be received? Anna and Dante find themselves putting on their investigation hats as they respond to a call of the 9-1-1 variety. Brook Lynn is there when Michael needs someone to confide in.

Drew briefly bites the bullet, Portia goes against her instincts, and Trina sets a fire. Although Port Charles’ residents should probably be used to this kind of thing by now, the latest crime to occur in the town has everyone talking.

Nina does something that could only be considered risky. Curtis takes Jordan into his confidence.

Days of Our Lives

Could the shocking discovery Brady makes have something to do with the crime his ex confessed to… and his daughter committed? Marlena has nothing but good things to say about Tate. It’s a happy occasion as Cat and Felicity celebrate Aaron’s return. Chad does what he can to offer his son, Thomas, a bit of support.

Marlena’s restless nights become filled with dreams that leave her feeling downright tormented!

Both Marlena and Gabi learn Philip's secret, and the teens start college life. Could something be brewing between Cat and Brady?

Ari and Aaron may be forced into getting to know one another better. Marlena tries to help Xander find out what’s truly at the heart of his anger. Gabi offers Philip words of encouragement.

Xander finds Gabi’s bug, and Brady asks for the maximum sentence for Kristen before the judge delivers her ruling. While Johnny’s big on giving credit where it’s due, that doesn’t necessarily extend to his father. Meanwhile, Chanel is once again considering the possibility of adopting. Marlena hopes that Belle might do her a favor. Gabi and Tony get together for what we’re betting will be some good, old-fashioned plotting! Philip is ready to put Xander to the test.
