Salem is about to be shaken to its core in the Monday, March 24th episode of Days of Our Lives! With stolen jewelry, mistaken affairs, hidden guilt, and a shocking shooting, this episode is packed with twists that will leave fans on the edge of their seats. Let’s break it all down!
At The Bistro, what begins as a casual night out turns into public chaos when Julie Williams makes a jaw-dropping discovery. Known for her sharp eye, Julie spots Melinda Trask wearing a necklace that looks all too familiar—it’s the stolen piece that has been at the center of much speculation. The moment she realizes the truth, Julie erupts. Her fury echoes through the restaurant as she demands answers, turning the night into an unforgettable spectacle. Melinda, caught off guard, tries to defend herself, but the tension only escalates. Whether she knowingly took possession of the stolen jewelry or is just as blindsided as everyone else, she now finds herself in the hot seat with Julie refusing to back down.
Meanwhile, Doug Williams watches this confrontation unfold, but he isn’t just an innocent bystander. Spoilers suggest Doug knows more than he has let on about how the necklace ended up in Melinda’s possession. As guilt eats away at him, the pressure builds—can he keep this secret buried, or will he crack under the weight of Julie’s relentless pursuit of the truth? If Doug confesses, the fallout could be catastrophic, not just for his marriage but for everyone involved in the tangled web of lies.
Elsewhere in Salem, Xander Cook is on a warpath after misinterpreting a conversation between Stephanie Johnson and Philip Kiriakis. Overhearing just enough to jump to the wrong conclusion, Xander is convinced that Philip and Stephanie are secretly having an affair behind Alex’s back. Fueled by anger and a bruised ego, Xander is ready to blow everything up. However, the reality is far from what he believes—Stephanie and Philip were actually discussing a past deception involving a fake letter, a secret that Philip desperately wants to keep hidden. Sarah Kiriakis, aware of how explosive the situation could become, warns Xander to keep quiet, but will he listen? If he exposes what he thinks is a betrayal, he could set off a chain reaction that spirals out of control, revealing more secrets than anyone is prepared to handle.
But the biggest shock of the night takes place at the DiMera mansion, where EJ DiMera’s enemies finally catch up to him. In a shocking turn of events, EJ is shot inside his own home, leaving Salem in a state of panic. This wasn’t a random attack—someone deliberately targeted EJ in a calculated move to take him out for good. As he lies bleeding on the floor, struggling for breath, the city holds its breath. It’s Chad DiMera who stumbles upon the horrifying scene, finding his brother barely clinging to life. As Chad desperately tries to save EJ, questions arise—who pulled the trigger, and why? The list of potential suspects is long, from business rivals seeking revenge to family members holding grudges, or even a past lover wanting justice. Whoever it is, they were determined to send a message, and they nearly succeeded.
