Salem has never been short on twists and turns, but next week promises to drop one of the most jaw-dropping revelations the town has seen in years. The return of Susan Banks is set to shake things up in a way that only she can—and this time, she’s not coming back just for a visit. Susan’s reappearance is tied directly to the mystery that’s left viewers on edge for months: who shot EJ DiMera?
As fans know, EJ has been clinging to life in a medically induced coma following the brutal shooting that nearly killed him. Investigators have searched tirelessly for answers, suspects have come and gone, and motives have run wild. Yet, despite all efforts, the truth remains frustratingly out of reach. That’s where Susan comes in.
If there’s one thing longtime Days of Our Lives viewers know, it’s that Susan Banks is unlike anyone else in Salem. She’s a delightful mix of eccentric charm, spiritual intuition, and outright chaos. She wears her quirky clothes like armor, dances to the beat of her own psychic drum, and often leaves a trail of bewildered townsfolk in her wake. But behind all the odd behavior lies a woman with deeply rooted instincts—and a powerful connection to her son.
When Susan walks into EJ’s sterile hospital room next week, it’s not just a heartfelt visit—it’s a moment charged with eerie energy. With a touch to EJ’s forehead and whispered words only a mother could utter, the room seems to shift. It’s subtle at first, but unmistakable: something spiritual has entered the space. And just like that, Susan’s gift begins to spark.
Her visions don’t come in clear-cut answers or detailed imagery. Instead, they arrive like fragments of a dream—flashes of symbols and sensations wrapped in metaphor. But what she sees this time is enough to raise the hairs on anyone’s neck: a gun, a dark figure lurking in shadow, a painful act of betrayal, and—most unsettling of all—a face she recognizes.
Could it be that Susan has seen the person who shot her son? It wouldn’t be the first time her psychic abilities uncovered something no one else could. Though her visions can be vague and easily misread, they often contain a kernel of truth that leads to powerful revelations. This time, that truth may finally blow the lid off the mystery that’s haunted Salem for weeks.
Even in her motherly concern, Susan doesn’t sugarcoat the situation. She’s known for her blunt honesty, and not even EJ’s fragile state will stop her from calling things as she sees them. She’ll scold him, question the people he’s trusted, and warn him—whether he’s conscious to hear it or not—about the dangers still circling around him.
The DiMera family has always been surrounded by deceit, and even their own walls aren’t safe from treachery. With Susan back, the narrative might shift from simply asking who pulled the trigger to questioning who stood by and allowed it to happen. Her arrival brings with it a strange mix of warmth and warning, love and suspicion.
As she roams the hospital halls, clutching her purse and muttering prophetic words, Susan may find herself face-to-face with someone who sets off every alarm in her mind. Her intuition could guide her to the very person involved in the attack on EJ—or at the very least, someone who knows far more than they’re admitting. Expect tense confrontations, cryptic hints, and a spiritual unmasking that could leave even the most composed Salemites rattled.
Could Susan’s deep connection to EJ have given her a supernatural glimpse into what happened? Did her maternal instinct act as a conduit, tying her to the trauma in real-time? Or is she just now uncovering suppressed knowledge that her subconscious has kept hidden until her return to Salem triggered it?
Whatever the case, one thing is certain—Susan Banks is not someone who keeps quiet when the energy feels wrong. Whether her insights are clear or clouded, she speaks her truth with unwavering conviction. And now, that truth could lead Salem one step closer to identifying EJ’s shooter.
This isn’t just another quirky chapter in Susan’s book of oddities—this could be the breakthrough the DiMera family, and all of Salem, has been waiting for. But with every answer she uncovers, more questions will arise. Will her vision bring justice—or unleash more darkness?
