Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers reveal that two weeks of great drama are coming up from August 9-20, so here’s what’s ahead after the Olympics wind down. Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) will return to Salem as Sami Brady DiMera (Alison Sweeney) and EJ DiMera’s (Dan Feurriegel) marriage crumbles. Paulina Price (Jackee Harry) will also face some mama drama, so there’ll be plenty of action going on!
First, let’s talk about Sami’s shocker. EJ will ultimately stun Sami with the news that he knows about her affair with Lucas Horton (Bryan Dattilo) during the week of August 9-13. Sami may argue that Nicole Brady (Arianne Zucker) is just filling EJ’s head with crazy ideas, but he’ll insist he saw proof.
After Sami realizes that letter landed in EJ’s hands, Days spoilers say she’ll panic and scramble to explain. Sami was in a dark place and thought EJ didn’t want her anymore, so she turned to Lucas in her time of need.
Once EJ finally decided to be the doting husband she wanted, Sami was all about putting Lucas behind her.
However, Sami’s excuses surely won’t be good enough for EJ since cheating is cheating. The fact that Sami betrayed him with her ex-husband and then lied about it will make things even worse.
Although Sami will fight for her marriage, EJ seems poised to throw her out and push for a split. This might give Lucas some hope for his own future with Sami, but she may hold out hope that EJ will come around in time.
Until then, Sami may want to unleash her fury on Nicole for giving EJ that letter. Nicole was just giving as good as she got in light of what went down at her anniversary party!
Sami can attack Nicole if she wants, but Nicole won’t care and may actually take great pleasure in the fact that Sami’s angry.
Over with Gabi Hernandez DiMera (Camila Banus), she’ll do a little more plotting with Jake DiMera (Brandon Barash) and eventually work on step one of her plan.
Gabi intends to take over Titan Industries, which means making sure Philip Kiriakis (Jay Kenneth Johnson) fails and gets shoved aside.
That task may not be as easy to pull off as Gabi thinks. Gabi will be playing with fire if she sabotages Philip since she could get fired before a takeover ever happens! Regardless, Gabi will hope to secure a brighter future for herself along with Jake.
As for Ava Vitali (Tamara Braun), she’ll catch Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) in a close moment with Nicole – too close if you ask Ava.
Nicole will lean on Rafe as she deals with her divorce, but Ava won’t like seeing her man’s arms around another woman.
Next, Theo Carver (Cameron Johnson) will demand an explanation from Claire Brady (Isabel Durant), who posed as the bride while Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson) made his getaway.
Claire will struggle to explain while Ben forces Ciara Brady (Victoria Konefal) into the cabin, where he’ll hope total recall’s going to happen.
During the week of August 16-20, there’s a good chance Ben will get his wish for Ciara’s memories to return. Speaking of returns, a big one will finally happen when Johnny DiMera comes back to town.
Carson Boatman will debut as a Johnny recast on August 18, so there’ll be a lot for him to catch up on.
Johnny is Allie Horton’s (Lindsay Arnold) twin brother, but they have different fathers because…well, it’s a soap and that sort of thing happens in Salem.
It’s a long story, but Johnny’s dad is EJ while Allie belongs to Lucas. Of course, they share a mom in Sami and should be pretty worried about her once the affair blows up.
Johnny will also fill Allie in on his time in Italy and his decision to come home.
As for Allie, she can offer updates on Sweet Bits Bakery and let Johnny meet his nephew Henry Horton (Jayna and Kinsley Fox), too.
Since Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) is one of the few love interests in town who isn’t related to Johnny and is in the right age range, it seems likely she’ll catch Johnny’s eye.
That could complicate things with Johnny’s sis since Allie’s still crushing on Chanel despite choosing Tripp Johnson (Lucas Adams).
Another family will face drama when Paulina’s mother comes to Salem on August 17, so let’s talk about Olivia Price’s (Marla Gibbs) upcoming debut.
Paulina has a strong personality and probably got it from her mother, so there’s the potential for some serious clashing here.
Chanel, Lani Price-Grant (Sal Stowers), Eli Grant (Lamon Archey) and Abe Carver (James Reynolds) should all be part of the Paulina and Olivia mess as well.
All kinds of relationships will be tested on Days in the coming weeks, so keep watching DOOL! We’ll keep you posted as other Days details emerge.
