Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers tease that the new DOOL preview promo for the week of August 31 shows some big amazing returns coming on the NBC soap. There are definitely some surprises in the mix, so this is a promo that you won’t want to miss!
First off, the promo shows some quick flashes of Gabi DiMera (Camila Banus) and Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney). As you might know, Gabi just exited canvas as her dad Eduardo Hernandez (A Martinez) was in trouble and that put Gabi in danger.
But Gabi will be back a bit later this fall, and you might have also heard that Alison Sweeney, who plays Sami, has inked a deal putting her at DOOL throughout 2021. That’s great news on both fronts for DOOL fans, but there’s much more to this promo.
Next, viewers see Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) clinking glasses with Abigail DiMera (Marci Miller) and telling her that he’s glad that she’s home. Abigail looks pretty strong and healthy in the promo, so it looks like that intensive therapy in Florida will have done her good.
Soon, Abigail and Chad will set out on a mission to find out who drugged Abigail and made her start having frightening hallucinations. Since Abigail was drugged with a DiMera manufactured drug, they’d better start looking inside the DiMera organization.
Next, the promo shows Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) interacting with son Tripp Dalton (Lucas Adams). According to Days of Our Lives spoilers, Steve will think he’s dealing with an intruder in his home, but it will turn out to be Tripp.
Of course, Tripp may have other reasons for being in Salem, other than paying his dad a visit. Days of Our Lives buzz is that Tripp could end up being the father of Allie Horton’s (Lindsay Arnold) baby, and if that’s the case, then he could be in town to find out what’s going on with his son, Baby Boy Horton.
DOOL spoilers say that Tripp’s emergence in Salem will have a big impact on several key DOOL characters, so we’ll see what happens there.
The new Days of Our Lives preview promo also shows Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) at his dad John Black’s (Drake Hogestyn) bedside. Since John’s being kept sedated for the time being, he won’t know that Brady has come back out of hiding, but Brady will be able to offer support to Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) and the rest of his family.
Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) is shown in the promo, too, as she’ll end up trailing Brady to Salem to support him.
Of course, Kristen is a wanted fugitive, since she stabbed Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston) a while back. Kristen, Brady, and their little girl Rachel Black have been in parts unknown for a few weeks now, to keep Kristen out of jail.
Days of Our Lives spoilers say that Kristen will get another assist from her bestie Lani Price-Grant (Sal Stowers) – something that will cause tension for Lani and Eli Grant (Lamon Archey).
Next, Philip Kiriakis (Jay Kenneth Johnson) and Chloe Lane (Nadia Bjorlin) are shown in split-screen. Viewers of the DOOL Digital Series “Last Blast Reunion” will remember that Philip and Chloe were interested in each other again at that time, but exactly what ended up transpiring between them remains to be seen. At any rate, Chloe will be back in Salem and reunited with Philip soon.
And now for some surprises – the promo shows JJ Deveraux (Casey Moss) embracing dad Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford), and Jack saying, “You’re back, you’re finally back.” It looks like JJ will be returning to Salem, and that’s great news for Days of Our Lives fans. although how brief or long his stint will be remains to be seen.
Another familiar face that pops up on screen in the promo is Evan Frears aka Christian Maddox (Brock Kelly), who was last seen going to prison after being found guilty of murdering Jordan Ridgeway (Chrishell Stause).
It seemed like we had seen the last of Evan and his family, since his sister Zoey Burge (Alysha Osche) had gone off canvas and his dad Orpheus (George DelHoyo) had been transferred to a prison outside of Salem. What might bring Evan back?
Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) is shown enjoying a beer in the promo, and it had been previously reported that Rafe would be making a comeback in autumn. But the promo also prominently shows Will Horton (Chandler Massey) and Sonny Kiriakis (Freddie Smith), which clearly indicates that Will and Sonny will be returning to Salem.
As DOOL viewers know, “WilSon” are currently headed to Arizona where Sonny has taken a position at a new startup, but it seems that they will have reason to be back in Salem soon.
Finally, the new DOOL promo shows Belle Black (Martha Madison) and Shawn Brady (Brandon Beemer) being surprised by the appearance of their old friend/foe Jan Spears (Heather Lindell). “Did you kids miss me?”
Jan asks as Shawn and Belle look horrified at her reappearance in Salem. You might remember that in the DOOL Digital Series “Last Blast Reunion,” Jan abducted Shawn and ended up sending a cake with a bomb in it to the Last Blast Reunion party.
Fortunately, Jan’s plan was foiled before anything horrible happened, but it seemed pretty likely at that point that Jan was hauled off by the police. Yet, in the DOOL promo, Jan looks like a free woman, so we’ll see what’s happened to her.
No matter what, it seems safe to say that Belle and Shawn won’t be happy to have Jan around again – especially if she’s still romantically obsessed with Shawn!
That was a great promo, and you’ll want to stick with the NBC soap and keep tuning in! Stay with CDL throughout the weekend for all the latest DOOL news and updates. We’ll keep you current!
