Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers recap for Thursday, February 1, reveals that Harris Michaels (Steve Burton) reassured Lucas Horton (Bryan Dattilo) about keeping him safe and urged Lucas to just sit tight while he questioned a perp at the hospital.
Unfortunately, the criminal wouldn’t offer any information related to the drug crisis, so Harris was frustrated when he ran into Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) and accepted her offer of therapy session.
That session brought questions about Ava Vitali (Tamara Braun), so Harris said that was over and explained Ava’s fake romance with Stefan DiMera (Brandon Barash). Marlena was confused, but Harris didn’t offer much info before he took off.
At Harris’ apartment on Thursday’s Days episode, Lucas got Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) on the phone and summoned him.
Chad brought Everett Lynch (Blake Berris) with him, so Lucas said he had a “hell of a story” to tell and explained the informant situation that got him beaten behind bars.
Lucas pointed the finger at Clyde Weston (James Read) before Harris returned and flipped out over Lucas talking to journalists.
Harris convinced Chad to hold off on the story in exchange for exclusive updates on an imminent drug bust.
Once Everett and Chad left, Harris scolded Lucas since he was trying to keep him alive and they didn’t need Clyde retaliating.
In the town square, Chad and Everett realized they needed to talk to Clyde if they wanted to do their upcoming story right.
At Titan on Thursday’s DOOL show, Theresa Donovan (Emily O’Brien) panicked over the layout of the new Bella issue and let Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) take a look.
It made sense to Alex, but Theresa knew it was all wrong and begged Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) for help as he arrived.
Brady indeed came to Theresa’s rescue and showed her what she was doing wrong, so she thanked him profusely and wound up laughing with him about old videos of Tate Black (Jamie Martin Mann) as a little boy.
Back in the town square, Maggie bumped into Alex and expressed doubt over him being mature, patient and empathetic enough to date Theresa right now.
Alex assumed Maggie thought they should break up, so Maggie confirmed that’s what she meant.
Of course, Alex made it clear that his days of being a player were over.
Now Alex was committed to being there for Theresa, so Maggie urged him to find an addicts’ support group and try to understand her better.
Maggie also thought she should step back in at Titan and mentioned that she could talk to the board.
Alex thanked Maggie for the advice about the addicts’ support group, but he warned that her return to Titan wasn’t happening.
When Alex came back to his office, he found Theresa and Brady laughing together.
Once Brady left, he got some positive news on Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) from Maggie and heard about her desire for a Titan comeback.
After Brady said he’d talk to the board and gauge their feelings, he acknowledged that Maggie only wanted everyone to thrive and pulled her into a hug.
Back with Alex, he assured Theresa that he was OK with her accepting help from Brady earlier.
Despite Alex’s apparent jealousy, he acted like Theresa’s happiness was all that mattered.
When Brady mentioned the idea of joining an addicts’ support group and learning how to help, Theresa asked if he’d really do that for her.
Alex said he’d do anything for Theresa before he closed the door for office passion.
At Sloan Petersen-Brady (Jessica Serfaty) and Eric Brady’s (Greg Vaughan) place on Thursday’s Days episode, their attempt to make love was interrupted by Jude Brady’s crying.
Once Eric fed Jude, he tried to get his steamy evening with Sloan back on track.
Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) interrupted next and claimed he was there to see the photos Eric took, but he really just wanted to push Sloan’s buttons.
Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) also arrived to ask about the christening, which was delayed since Eric wanted to give Nicole DiMera (Arianne Zucker) a chance to be there after she got back.
Sloan acted like that was fine and put up with Leo getting under her skin before he joined Eric in looking at the photos.
That gave Sloan a chance to complain to Melinda about motherhood and how Eric didn’t want a nanny – not that they could afford one anyway.
Sloan didn’t see how she could do this for 18 more months – let alone 18 years!
Melinda basically told Sloan to suck it up and get over it since their freedom was on the line.
After everyone cleared out on Thursday’s Days episode, Sloan and Eric once again tried to make love, but Marlena showed up to take a peek at Jude.
That left Sloan frustrated as she plopped back on the bed and sighed.
Days of Our Lives spoilers say Sloan has far worse problems in her future, so stay tuned!
