Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers recap for Tuesday, June 23, reveal that Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) and Lucas Horton (Brian Dattilo) ran around the room at Nicole and Eric Brady’s (Greg Vaughan) apartment, with Nicole keeping Lucas’ phone from him. Nicole put the phone in her blouse, which resulted in a brawl, with Nicole falling on top of Lucas on the couch. At that moment, Eric walked in and wondered what on earth was going on.
Nicole explained that she was trying to protect Allie Horton (Lindsay Arnold) and keep Lucas from calling Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney). Eric insisted that Nicole give Lucas his phone, and she did.
Lucas got calmed down, and he left Allie a civil voicemail message. Nicole shared that Allie was trying to figure out what to do, but that she was at risk of running at any moment if Lucas called Sami.
Lucas then left to go find Allie, leaving Nicole and Eric behind. Eric teasingly said that he was shocked to find Lucas and Nicole in such a compromising position. Eric and Nicole canoodled, then Nicole took Eric’s phone and put it in her blouse. Eric chased Nicole into the bedroom playfully.
At the Kiriakis mansion, Allie talked with Will Horton (Chandler Massey) and Sonny Kiriakis (Freddie Smith). Will wondered if Sami and Lucas knew about Allie’s pregnancy, and that led to a major discussion about the pregnancy and responsibility.
Allie ignored a call from Lucas while this was going on. Allie learned about what was going on with Gabi DiMera (Camila Banus) and how Ari Horton (Sydney Brower) was having a hard time right now.
During their discussion, Sonny nearly blurted out that he and Will were planning to adopt, but Will stopped him. Allie went to the kitchen for a moment, and Will told Sonny that now might not be the right time to mention the adoption.
Allie returned, and Will inquired about the father of Allie’s baby – Allie quickly shut down that conversation. Allie started to realize what a big responsibility it was to have a baby, and she said that she wanted her baby to have a real home, like the one Sonny and Will made for Ari.
In town square, Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) dragged her luggage out of the Salem Inn when she ran into Xander Kiriakis (Paul Telfer). Xander asked why she was moving out, and if she and Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) had a lover’s spat. Sarah confessed that she and Brady weren’t lovers, which made Xander happy.
Sarah then thanked Xander for arranging Mackenzie “Mickey” Horton’s headstone, and Xander said that she didn’t need to thank him – he just wanted to give Mickey a proper resting place.
Sarah had to go, saying that she was going to crash at the hospital’s on-call room, and Xander convinced her to go back to the mansion. Xander and Sarah left together, with Xander getting Sarah’s bags.
At Titan, Brady walked into his office to find someone in his CEO chair. It was Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston), who promptly confronted Brady on his plan to run Titan into the ground.
Brady thought that Ciara Brady (Victoria Konefal) ratted him out, but Victor said that he figured it out himself. Brady yelled that Victor should just fire him, but Victor refused, saying that he loved Brady. Brady scoffed.
Victor said that switching the babies was the regret of his life, but that he couldn’t turn back time or make different choices. Victor said that there must be something that he could do for Brady, and Brady asked Victor if he meant it.
At Eli Grant (Lamon Archey) and Lani Price’s (Sal Stowers) apartment, Lani mulled over different outfits for Gabi’s hearing. Eli and Lani canoodled and gushed over their upcoming wedding, and Lani lamented about Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) not being able to attend. Eli and Lani made love, then Eli got a call from Brady asking him to come to Titan immediately.
Later, Eli showed up at Titan, and Brady said that his grandfather had a confession to make. Eli whipped out his recording device, and Brady said, “Remember when Victor told you that Kristen stabbed him?” Eli nodded. “I lied,” Victor said.
Back at the Kiriakis mansion, Xander and Sarah arrived, and Sarah went upstairs. Xander eavesdropped at the door to the living room where Allie was still talking with Will and Sonny.
Allie was talking about her baby and how it deserves the best chance at a happy life. Xander got thoughtful, then went about getting Sarah’s luggage from outside. In the living room, Allie shared a tender hug with Will and Sonny.
Once Allie had gone, Will and Sonny wondered if perhaps they had scared Allie with all the talk about how challenging it is raising Ari. Will and Sonny determined that they had just been honest, and that having a baby may be a commitment that Allie doesn’t want to make.
They both simultaneously got the idea that perhaps they could adopt Allie’s baby.
Upstairs in Sarah’s room, she found her wedding dress in the armoire and flashed back to some happier times with Xander before their failed wedding. Xander came in with Sarah’s bags while she was holding the dress, and he awkwardly left. Sarah looked after Xander sadly.
Back in town square, Allie met up with Lucas, and Lucas said that he wanted to apologize to her for being overbearing. Allie said that Lucas wanted to make decisions for her, and Lucas said no, that he’s willing to go along with whatever she decides.
Lucas said that he wouldn’t tell Sami about the pregnancy for now, and he hugged Allie. Allie informed her father that she’s made up her mind, and that she doesn’t plan to raise her baby.
Finally, at the Brady Pub, Lani sat contemplating the menu and talking happily to her baby bump. But outside, someone was lurking and watching Lani.
