Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers preview teases that we’re in for some big action during the week of September 21. As you may know, Days of Our Lives will not be seen on Thursday, September 17th or on Friday, September 18th due to preemptions. But the new DOOL promo promises a lot of drama for next week, so let’s get right into it!
First off, Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) will face a major hurdle as she’s charged with the attempted murder of Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston).
Melinda Trask (Laura Kai Chen) will be back as District Attorney, and this will spell all kinds of trouble for Kristen, since Kristen walked free after pushing Trask’s daughter Haley Chen (Thia Megia) down a flight of stairs at the hospital.
Melinda is shown barging into the interrogation room at the Salem PD and confronting Kristen. “You pushed my daughter down a flight of stairs!” Melinda growls to Kristen, as Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) and Belle Black (Martha Madison) stand by.
It looks like Belle will have decided to help Brady out and defend Kristen, but she’ll be up against Melinda, who’s out for blood.
Next, the new Days of Our Lives promo addresses the issue of Allie Horton’s (Lindsay Arnold) baby daddy. Allie is shown in the promo holding her baby at the DiMera mansion, and it appears that Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney) isn’t too happy about that.
Allie is also shown bumping into Tripp Dalton (Lucas Adams) in the park and being astonished. Allie certainly looks stunned to see Tripp again, and she’ll have to face that fact that her son’s father is going to find out that he’s a father!
That should certainly change the dynamic with Allie’s yet-to-be-named little boy. Sami may have custody right at the moment, but once Tripp finds out that he’s got a son, there will be a whole new side of the family that will lay some claim to the baby. Sami’s dream of raising the baby is going to go up in smoke, it seems!
The promo then turns to a big reveal concerning Gwen Rizchech (Emily O’Brien). Gwen is shown visiting with Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (William Utay) at Statesville.
Gwen looks pretty familiar with Rolf, and during their visit, Rolf does his maniacal laugh like only Rolf can do, so it seems that he’ll be happy with Gwen’s progress on her mission.
Of course, Days of Our Lives viewers know that Gwen is the one who drugged Abigail DiMera (Marci Miller) a while back, and she nearly did so for a second time.
But what’s the motivation for Rolf to send Gwen to infiltrate the DiMera household and drug Abigail? DOOL viewers should get some answers when we see Rolf and Gwen interact.
The new Days of Our Lives promo also addresses the Jan Spears (Heather Lindell) situation that’s got several Salem residents in a tizzy. Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) is shown telling Claire Brady (Isabel Durant) in no uncertain terms to stay away from Jan.
Of course, Claire will probably take offense at that, since she seems to think that Jan should be given a second chance after her mental health issues – just like she herself was given a second chance.
However, what Claire doesn’t appreciate is that Jan wasn’t just a troubled person with some honest mental health issues – Jan’s a master manipulator who’s using Claire to get at Belle and Shawn Brady (Brandon Beemer). In the promo, Belle is shown lamenting to Shawn that Jan’s a sociopath who wants to use Claire to get to them.
It doesn’t look like Claire is going to be deterred from seeing Jan, though, since the two are shown together outside the Salem Inn in the promo. Who knows what Jan has planned, but whatever it is, it seems that Philip Kiriakis (Jay Kenneth Johnson) will be involved in the drama.
Viewers know that Philip has vowed to protect Belle and Claire, and that could be something that Shawn may not appreciate.
Next, the new promo touches on the ongoing problems that Eli Grant (Lamon Archey) and Lani Price-Grant (Sal Stowers) are facing over Eli’s arrest of Kristen.
Eli will be trying to seek Lani’s forgiveness for what he did, but unfortunately Lani is shown in the promo telling Kristen that she’ll NEVER forgive Eli. And as things get more difficult for Kristen as Melinda gets involved, Lani will probably be even more unwilling to forgive Eli.
Finally, the new Days of Our Lives promo shows Bonnie Lockhart (Judi Evans) pulling Justin Kiriakis (Wally Kurth) into a serious kiss in the park. Later, Justin will talk things through with Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) later, explaining to him that Bonnie just up and kissed him.
As they’re talking, Jack will note that it’s not like Justin has any feelings for Bonnie.
But then Justin will seemingly realize that maybe he does feel something for Bonnie, as he’s slow to answer Jack. Could we actually see a romantic future for Bonnie and Justin? Stranger things have certainly happened in Salem, so you never know!
It looks like we’re in for an exciting week, so stay tuned to the NBC soap! We’ll keep you up to speed on all the latest Days of Our Lives spoilers, news, and daily episode recaps. Here at CDL, we’ve got you covered!
