Salem is about to explode with tension as Johnny DiMera sets off a chain reaction during “Operation Save Bo.” In a move that’s both daring and dangerous, Johnny’s actions will impact several lives and leave the town reeling. Meanwhile, Doug Williams faces another major crisis, bringing more emotional turmoil to the beloved character.

Over at the town square, a fiery clash erupts between Philip Kiriakis and Gabi Hernandez. Sparks will fly—and not the romantic kind—as they engage in a loud and bitter shouting match. But the chaos doesn’t end there. Leo Stark stirs the pot further by making some scandalous accusations against Gabi, adding fuel to an already out-of-control fire.

In the midst of all this, Johnny drops a devastating bombshell: he can no longer go through with adopting Tate and Sophia’s baby. Chanel Dupree is absolutely heartbroken by the news, having dreamed of building a family together. The emotional blow shatters her world, and her heartbreak is raw and intense.

As tensions reach a breaking point, Tate Black’s anger boils over. Feeling betrayed and furious, Tate confronts Johnny and tackles him to the ground, unleashing his pent-up rage in a brutal physical showdown. Meanwhile, Sophia Choi faces her own turmoil when her mother, Amy Choi, suggests that maybe Sophia and Tate should just co-parent the baby themselves—pushing Sophia to the edge as she struggles with her rapidly crumbling future.

Elsewhere in Salem, Doug Williams’ health takes a serious downturn, prompting fears of another major crisis. Holly Jonas might once again come to Doug’s rescue, just as she has done in the past during critical moments. Keep watching to see if Holly’s perfectly-timed heroics strike again.

Meanwhile, Operation Save Bo kicks into high gear. Bo Brady’s only chance at survival rests in the hands of Shawn Brady and Steve Johnson. When Kayla Johnson fails to convince Dr. Jeffrey Russell to hand over a miracle drug, Shawn makes a bold decision: they’ll steal it. The two partners-in-crime race against time, risking their freedom to break into the hospital’s research wing and grab the life-saving medication.

But things aren’t smooth sailing on the DiMera front either. EJ DiMera attempts to make amends, but his efforts fall flat with Johnny. Even more unsettling, Susan Banks picks up on ominous vibes swirling around her grandson. Johnny’s keeping some sinister secrets, and Susan, with her famous sixth sense, isn’t buying his lies.

In a shocking flashback, viewers will see Johnny aiming a gun at EJ the night of the shooting. But don’t jump to conclusions just yet—there are major twists coming. New developments in the police investigation suggest Johnny might not be the guilty party after all. As the investigation continues, new surprising suspects emerge, keeping fans on the edge of their seats. Who actually pulled the trigger on EJ remains one of the biggest mysteries that DOOL writers are about to unravel.

Across town, JJ Deveraux is determined to prove Gabi’s innocence and win her back. His desperation is growing, especially after accusing her of shooting EJ—a mistake that left Gabi furious and silent. Will JJ manage to repair the damage and rekindle their romance? Time will tell, but the odds aren’t looking great.

Speaking of romances, Chad DiMera and Cat Green’s budding relationship heats up. There’s serious chemistry between them, and it seems like they’re heading toward a steamy hookup. But Chad’s lingering grief over Abigail DiMera’s death continues to haunt him. Will Chad realize he’s not ready to move on, or will he risk diving into a new relationship with Cat despite his unresolved feelings?

Meanwhile, Maggie Kiriakis steps in as the voice of reason, trying to convince Xander Kiriakis to show compassion toward his brother, Philip. Xander’s bitterness is running high, but Maggie’s efforts could lead to a surprising softening of Xander’s hardened heart.

As the week wraps up, the action around Bo’s recovery intensifies. Thanks to Shawn and Steve’s risky heist, Bo receives the miracle drug he needs. In an emotional and powerful scene, Bo finally wakes up, marking a triumphant moment for his loved ones who’ve fought so hard to bring him back.

Back at the DiMera mansion, Kristen DiMera notices something strange about EJ’s behavior. His unusual demeanor might be linked to the arrival of a new recast for Rachel Black, played by newcomer Alice Holly. Could Rachel have a bigger role in EJ’s shooting than anyone suspects? Theories are swirling, and fans won’t want to miss a moment of the action.

In a final emotional twist, Chad reaches a painful conclusion about his future with Cat. Despite their connection, Chad acknowledges that he’s still grieving Abigail, and it might be too soon to move forward. But will Cat agree, or will this lead to even more heartbreak?

It’s a week of chaos, heartache, and jaw-dropping twists in Salem you won’t want to miss. Stay tuned to Days of Our Lives as shocking secrets unravel, new romances ignite, and desperate missions push our favorite characters to their limits!
