This episode brings explosive confrontations, shocking discoveries, and long-awaited returns. First off, Sami Brady and Rex Brady are back in town—and they’re not wasting time easing into the chaos. As Sami walks into EJ DiMera’s hospital room, she locks eyes with Belle Black, whose emotional moment is quickly interrupted. The tension between the sisters simmers as Belle tries to hold her composure, but Sami’s glare says it all—there’s unfinished business here.
Meanwhile, Rex—despite suffering from a broken arm—embraces his mother Kate Brady warmly. Kate is visibly surprised by Rex’s return, and while she tries to act tough, the emotion is evident. As the week progresses, Rex finds himself opening up to Roman Brady, discussing deep concerns that may be linked to more than just family ties.
But the real storm brews between Gabi Hernandez and Kristen DiMera. The two fierce women are accusing each other of shooting EJ. JJ Deveraux and Shawn Brady are leading the investigation, and Gabi starts piecing together what she remembers from that fateful night. Suspicion is thick in the air. Kristen, never one to shy away from drama, finds herself cornered by DA Melinda Trask, who’s eager to crack the case.
However, Kristen and Gabi aren’t the only suspects. Ava Vitali, Johnny DiMera, and even Roman are pulled into the web of doubt. Could the shooter be someone entirely unexpected? The question remains unanswered as the investigation unfolds.
Elsewhere in Salem, a surprising scene unfolds involving Holly Jonas and Doug Williams III. Tate Black, concerned and clearly unsettled, discovers Holly hiding out in Doug’s hotel room. The moment raises eyebrows and questions—Tate’s assumptions may lead to even more drama down the road.
The week of April 7th also brings some big choices for other Salem residents. Stephanie Johnson presents Alex Kiriakis with a pivotal decision. Meanwhile, Xander Cook feels the time is right to take bold action against DiMera Enterprises. But he’ll have to tread carefully—Vivian Alamain is back, and she won’t be leaving town until she gets exactly what she came for.
Over on the Price front, Chanel DuPree makes a heartfelt confession to her mother, Paulina. Secrets and guilt are mounting for Sarah Horton Kiriakis, who is wrestling with something she knows she must reveal before Xander finds out on his own.
Back to Sami—her return isn’t just to support her son Johnny, who’s been caught in a spiral of family drama and deception. Sami’s also on a mission to resolve her own lingering issues. She confronts Rex about his recent activities, and after some initial hesitation, he admits to being involved in a covert investigation into the DiMera family’s dark dealings. He warns Sami that Kristen may be hiding a powerful secret that could threaten the entire family’s legacy.
As Sami and Rex reluctantly join forces, their shared history and complicated emotions surface. Though angry at Rex for keeping secrets, Sami realizes she needs him to help unravel the DiMera mystery. Together, they vow to expose Kristen and the criminal conspiracy lurking beneath the surface.
And as the power struggle between Gabi and Kristen intensifies, both women gear up for an all-out war over the DiMera throne. With Stefan DiMera caught in the middle and loyalties being tested, the path forward looks anything but smooth.
