As Days of Our Lives bids farewell to the iconic Drake Hogestyn, fans prepare for an emotional tribute to his beloved character, John Black. His final appearance will mark the end of an era, leaving behind a legacy of unforgettable moments.
When the episode ended, a scene involving Chad (Billy Flynn) and Cat (AnnaLynne McCord) cut to black. Then, an In Memoriam graphic saying “In Loving Memory” and a photo of Hogestyn appeared.
Hogestyn’s presence was felt throughout the episode because much of the conversation revolved around John Black. First, Steve (Stephen Nichols) returned from Paris with news for Marlena (Deidre Hall). He told her that the woman Chad married wasn’t Abigail after all. He then told her who she really was, that her name was Catherina, “Cat” for short.
In addition to coming clean with Chad, Cat also admitted that her namesake was her mother, Catherina Meleounis, Konstantin’s (John Kapelos) daughter. Naturally, this meant that Catherina had survived that fateful night decades earlier.
