Things are heating up in Salem this week, and emotions are running high as one beloved DiMera wakes up, a powerful hospital fundraiser brings the town together, and one man is forced to face the truth about where his heart really lies.

Chapter 1: Kayla’s Big Night & the Bachelor Auction Twist

Dr. Kayla Johnson takes center stage this week as she leads the charge for a high-stakes hospital fundraiser, a make-or-break event aimed at saving Salem University Hospital. With the hospital in financial jeopardy, Kayla rallies the town for a night filled with hope, glitz, and a dash of drama. Partnering with Chad DiMera and the energetic Cat Green, the event includes a surprising twist—a bachelor auction!

Cat pulls out all the stops, securing Salem’s most eligible bachelors including Alex Kiriakis, Brady Black, and a reluctant Tripp Johnson. But one bachelor’s bid leaves jaws on the floor—Gabby Hernandez shocks the entire ballroom when she offers $10,000 for Alex, sparking tension with her boyfriend JJ Deveraux. JJ may be trying to play it cool, but his icy glare and clenched jaw tell another story.

Chapter 2: Unexpected Bonds & Chad’s Emotional Realization

While the fundraiser dazzles with glittering lights and champagne toasts, Chad and Cat work seamlessly to ensure the night’s success. Their chemistry is subtle but undeniable—sharing toasts, laughs, and mutual pride in pulling off the evening. Yet even in their shared victories, Chad’s heart carries a shadow.

Later in the night, Chad spots Cat interacting warmly with his children, Charlotte and Thomas. The moment should have brought joy, but instead, it triggers an overwhelming wave of grief. Watching Cat with the kids paints a picture of what could be—a life filled with family and love—but it also makes Chad painfully aware that he’s not ready to let go of Abigail.

Stepping away from the celebration, Chad finds solitude on a quiet terrace. He pulls out a photo of Abigail, whispering into the night, “I thought I was ready… but I’m not.” It’s a haunting moment of vulnerability that shows just how deeply his late wife’s memory still lingers.

Chapter 3: Cat and Gabby—Conversations & Clarity

Days later, Cat and Gabby cross paths at the Java Café. What starts as playful banter about Gabby’s bold auction bid turns into something more meaningful. Gabby, ever the truth-teller, presses Cat on her connection with Chad. Cat admits there might be something there—but she’s unsure. “He’s still in love with a ghost,” she says quietly.

Gabby offers words of wisdom: “Abigail was amazing… but Chad deserves to live. And so do you.” Though Cat nods, her eyes reveal she’s not convinced the timing is right. The door may be cracked open for something more—but for now, it remains uncertain.

Chapter 4: EJ DiMera Awakens—But Something’s Not Right

Meanwhile, across town at the hospital, another DiMera stirs. EJ DiMera, who had been in a medically induced coma following a traumatic incident, begins to regain consciousness. His mother, the eccentric yet loving Susan Banks, makes her long-awaited return to Salem just in time. She slips into EJ’s hospital room, her voice soft and trembling as she takes his hand and pleads, “Mama’s here, baby. Come back to me.”

In a dramatic and emotional moment, EJ’s eyes flutter open—but this is no peaceful awakening. While Susan is overwhelmed with joy, it’s clear that something isn’t right. EJ’s eyes are glassy, his tone disoriented. “Mama?” he whispers. “I… I don’t remember what happened.”

The tension escalates when Kristen DiMera bursts into the room, hoping to embrace her brother. But EJ stares at her blankly, asking a chilling question: “Who are you?” The air in the room thickens with uncertainty as Kristen and Susan realize this isn’t just recovery—it’s possibly amnesia, or worse, brain trauma from the shooting.

Chapter 5: The Aftermath and What Comes Next

As the week unfolds, shockwaves ripple through Salem. Kristen is fuming and paces the hallway outside EJ’s room, demanding answers no one can give. Marina tries to offer rational explanations—perhaps EJ’s memory loss is trauma-induced, or neurological damage from the gunshot wound. But that explanation doesn’t calm Kristen one bit. With EJ not fully himself, questions arise: Will he recover fully? Will he ever be the man he once was?

Elsewhere in Salem, relationships are shifting. Chad confides in Stephanie Johnson about his grief, admitting that no amount of time has healed the hole left by Abigail. Meanwhile, Bell Black and Philip Kiriakis make a heartfelt promise to one another, while Maggie Horton Kiriakis continues to encourage Xander Cook to embrace understanding and honesty in his relationships—especially as Xander demands answers from Stephanie and Alex.

On the romantic front, Jada Hunter calls it quits with Rafe Hernandez, while Bo Brady’s medical situation takes a serious turn, catching the attention of Shawn Brady. And as if that weren’t enough, young hearts are stirring as Sophia Choi and Tate Black begin growing closer.

Final Thoughts:

This week’s Days of Our Lives packs a powerful emotional punch—between EJ’s mysterious awakening, Chad’s heart-wrenching epiphany, and the unexpected sparks flying all across Salem, the drama is richer than ever. Can EJ recover who he truly is? Will Chad ever be able to move forward with someone new? And just what secrets will unravel next?
