Days of Our Lives Recap: Wednesday, October 18 – Dimitri’s Getaway Plot – Abe’s Divorce Called Off

Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers recap for Wednesday, October 18, reveals that Abe Carver (James Reynolds) showed up at the townhouse looking for Belle Brady (Martha Madison), but John Black (Drake Hogestyn) offered a reminder that his daughter didn’t live there.

Abe hinted about wanting Belle’s help to file for divorce, so John questioned why. That led to Abe’s admission that he was doing it because he’d come to care for Paulina Price (Jackee Harry) so much.

Abe explained how hopeful Paulina got about him knowing where the decanter was, but he wasn’t sure his memories would ever return and didn’t want to disappoint her.

After Abe acted like he should divorce Paulina for her own good, John joked about setting her up with 97-year-old Timothy Robicheaux (Dick Van Dyke), who was now at a nearby assisted living facility.

Abe seemed a bit jealous despite the ridiculousness of it all, so John urged him to see that he wasn’t ready to let Paulina go.

It’d just hurt them both if Abe filed for divorce, so John suggested Abe should live in the moment and trust that Paulina wanted him with or without his memories.

At the hospital, Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) got a visit from Paulina, who was eager to explore various types of therapy to give Abe the memory push he needed.

Paulina explained the decanter situation, but Marlena wasn’t as hopeful about Abe’s memories returning and felt Paulina should prepare for the possibility that they wouldn’t come back.

It was hard for Paulina to accept that, but Marlena suggested she should focus on making new memories with Abe.

After Abe summoned Paulina to the town square, she apologized for putting so much pressure on him before.

Abe understood and liked Paulina’s determination, so they shared some sweet moments before grabbing an early dinner together.

Back with Marlena and John, they realized they’d given Paulina and Abe similar advice, so they seemed pleased over their accidental teamwork.

At the DiMera mansion on Wednesday’s Days episode, EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) quizzed Gabi DiMera (Camila Banus) and Stefan DiMera (Brandon Barash) about why Dimitri von Leuschner (Peter Porte) suddenly snapped on them.

Stefan and Gabi explained that they found out Dimitri only married Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) for the sake of the Von Leuschner fortune and that he cheated on her with Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart).

Although Gabi was about to divulge the rest of the story about the DiMera shares, Stefan lied that they blackmailed Dimitri for a piece of the Von Leuschner fortune.

Once Stefan was alone with Gabi, he hinted that was best not to tip their hand just yet.

Gabi and Stefan had a strategy session regarding their quest for more DiMera shares, which brought Gabi’s suggestion that they should go after Kristen DiMera’s (Stacy Haiduk) next and exploit her weak spot.

At the pub on Wednesday’s DOOL show, Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) continued to comfort Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) over Talia Hunter’s (Aketra Sevillian) departure.

Kate Roberts Brady (Lauren Koslow) walked in and got updates on Talia leaving town, so she assumed this was about Talia sleeping with Shawn Brady (Brandon Beemer).

After Kate admitted Marlena told her, she said maybe some distance would be good for all parties involved.

Rafe gave Jada another pep talk about Talia and mentioned that Harris Michaels (Steve Burton) was Jada’s new partner.

For Harris and Jada’s first assignment together, Rafe wanted them to find out who delivered Susan Banks (Stacy Haiduk) to Edmund Crumb (Adam Caine).

At the hospital, Leo taunted Dimitri by bringing him yogurt and then eating it in front of him. As far as Leo was concerned, Dimitri didn’t deserve a treat since he ruined their chance to live happily ever after.

Dimitri was apologetic and eventually brought up the idea of Leo helping him bust out of there so they could still get that happy ending.

At one point on Wednesday’s Days episode, EJ showed up with another yogurt cup and pointed out that Harold said it was Dimitri’s favorite.

With Dimitri facing major jail time, EJ was hopeful about gaining control of his shares along with Megan DiMera’s (Miranda Wilson).

Dimitri admitted that EJ was too late, so Leo explained how Stefan and Gabi forced Dimitri to sign over the shares before they’d call an ambulance.

After EJ trashed the yogurt cup and returned to the DiMera mansion, he confronted Gabi and Stefan for lying to him earlier.

EJ was furious over Stefan and Gabi’s move for the shares, but Stefan pointed out that his brother tried to do the same thing.

Since the feud was back on, EJ made it clear that two could play this game and left in a huff. Stefan assumed EJ would go after Kristen’s shares and suddenly had a brilliant idea.

Back at the hospital on Wednesday’s Days episode, Rafe and Jada showed up to escort Dimitri to a holding cell since he’d been medically cleared for transport.

After Jada and Rafe stepped away to deal with the final details of Dimitri’s release, Leo asked how they could get him out of there and was ready to try pulling off an escape plot.

Days of Our Lives spoilers say Leo and Dimitri’s plan will come with some curveballs, so stay tuned for all the startling news ahead.
