In Days of Our Lives, villain Clyde Weston has been a relentless force, but his obsession with taking control of the DiMera family assets has driven him to even darker lengths. After a failed

attempt involving Mark and Cat, who posed as Abigail to manipulate Chad DiMera emotionally and gain access to the DiMera empire, Clyde’s plan unraveled, exposing their deception. But

for those who believe Clyde is defeated, he’s far from finished.

Instead, this setback only intensifies Clyde’s anger and fuels his twisted ambitions. Now, he’s plotting a terrifying scheme that targets what Chad values most—his children. Clyde’s past actions have shown he will stop at nothing to achieve his goals; he was responsible for Abigail’s tragic death, which left Chad devastated and his family in turmoil. With revenge still fresh on his mind, Clyde is prepared to turn his rage onto Chad’s young son, Thomas, whom Chad has worked tirelessly to protect since Abigail’s passing.

The idea that Clyde might kidnap Thomas is horrifying, yet plausible, given his history. Clyde has always been a manipulator, willing to cross any line to get what he wants. With his previous plan foiled, rumors suggest he might go after Thomas as a way to exert emotional and psychological control over Chad. Such an abduction would push Chad to his breaking point, forcing him to race against time to rescue his child while grappling with the intense fear of knowing Clyde holds his family’s future in his hands.

If Clyde follows through with this new scheme, he could use Thomas as leverage to pressure Chad into handing over control of DiMera Enterprises or making other sacrifices. This situation would not only push Chad into an unimaginable dilemma but could also force him to make choices that tear at his very identity as a father. Clyde’s pursuit of power has always been brutal, but this plan to kidnap Chad’s son would escalate the stakes in ways Chad never expected, turning the situation into an ultimate showdown.

Days of Our Lives viewers will be on the edge of their seats as Chad confronts his most personal and painful battle yet. Will he succeed in protecting his son and preventing Clyde’s plan from unfolding? Or will Clyde’s ruthless ambitions finally break Chad, forcing him to make unthinkable decisions to save his family?
