Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers for the week of October 17-21 tease that the villains’ storyline will finally wind down. Clyde (James Read) has been taken back to prison and Deimos (Vincent Irizarry) has a plan for Xander (Paul Telfer), too. A showdown is brewing and it could have a surprising outcome.
Deimos will eventually return with updates on what happened. There’s a chance that Xander will manage to use the money and plane access he was given. Xander wanted revenge on Theresa (Jen Lilley), but he’s not going to get it. As a result, Xander might just bolt and leave the Salem PD out of luck.
That’s not as comforting as putting Xander behind bars, but it’s better than having him around to terrorize the town. Sometimes Salemites just have to accept small victories. Of course, things could play out a little differently. Whatever the case, DOOL buzz hints that they may leave it open for a potential return at some point.
Since Clyde has been locked up and Xander might get away, it’s only fitting that one of these villains exits by death. It certainly looks like Orpheus (George DelHoyo) will end his Days of Our Lives run with a shocking demise.
Orpheus was always the most dramatic of the group. He deserves a dramatic departure as well.
After a couple of botched plans, Orpheus will wind up in police custody. He’d obviously rather die than go back to prison. Orpheus will snatch a deadly drug out of Marlena’s (Deidre Hall) medical bag. He’ll swallow the pill and prepare to die.
John’s (Drake Hogestyn) father, Yo Ling (Tobin Bell), used a similar tactic when he realized he’d been caught. His pride wouldn’t let him be held prisoner. Orpheus should give John déjà vu with this move. Still, we can’t completely count out a final trick. After all, Orpheus has “died” before!
Then again, they didn’t use this character for nearly 30 years. Maybe this is truly Orpheus’ last stand. Meanwhile, Maggie (Suzanne Rogers) will get good news about her recovery.
Her doctor will suggest that she’s perfectly capable of walking. It seems there’s just a psychological barrier that Maggie can’t get past yet.
Days of Our Lives spoilers say Nicole (Arianne Zucker) will make a startling admission. After calling Chloe (Nadia Bjorlin) and offering a warning, Nicole will tell Deimos the truth about his baby.
Well, she’ll tell him what she believes is the truth. Nicole will state that Chloe is actually pregnant with Deimos’ child.
Based on Chloe’s realization at the OB-GYN, it may not be that simple. Days spoilers state that Chloe could have a secret, but we may not get details for a few weeks.
Elsewhere, Chad (Billy Flynn) will make a decision about Thomas’ care. He’ll let Adrienne (Judi Evans) and Lucas (Bryan Dattilo) know that he’s ready to fly solo.
Theresa (Jen Lilley) will also confess her deception to Brady (Eric Martsolf) this week. Across town, Sonny (Freddie Smith) will try to figure out where he stands with Paul (Christopher Sean).
It sounds like Days will really be hopping. Stay tuned to DOOL and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest Days of Our Lives spoilers, updates and news.
