Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers recap for Thursday, July 4, reveals that Tate Black (Leo Howard) reassured Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) about his plan for them to be together this summer, but he had to work out a few details first.
Once Tate hung up, he sold Aaron Greene (Louis Tomeo) on the idea of going to lacrosse camp in his place.
That way, Tate could hide out somewhere locally and Holly could come visit him without anyone knowing about it.
Meanwhile, Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) summoned Theresa Donovan (Emily O’Brien) to the townhouse, where she misunderstood the reason why he called her.
Theresa thought this was about their night together, so she reminded Brady that she was confused and upset.
Now Theresa was sure she wanted to be with Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson), so Brady said he knew all that and just wanted to talk about sending Tate to lacrosse camp.
It turned out to be an easier sell than Brady thought since Theresa agreed Tate and Holly should have some distance between them.
At the DiMera mansion on Thursday’s Days episode, Rachel Black (Finley Rose Slater) overheard Holly on the phone with Tate and threatened to tell Nicole DiMera (Arianne Zucker) that they were sneaking around.
Rachel tried to call Nicole’s number, but Holly grabbed the phone and worked to persuade her not to snitch. After Holly offered up the perfume that Rachel liked, Rachel realized this was a bribe.
Holly acted it was more like a promise between friends and hoped she could count on Rachel, but Brady was suspicious when he walked in on their discussion.
Rachel and Holly convinced Brady they were just talking about perfumes before Rachel ran upstairs to grab glow sticks for the fireworks show tonight.
That gave Brady a chance to break the news about Tate going to lacrosse camp, so Holly feigned surprise and ultimately pretended to understand.
If Tate and Holly proved themselves trustworthy, Brady hinted that maybe they could reevaluate things during their senior year.
Later, Tate called Holly to say they were all set on their plan since Aaron had agreed to pose as him at lacrosse camp.
However, Tate had to hang up in a hurry once Brady arrived at the pub with Rachel.
Brady let Tate know that Theresa had offered her approval on lacrosse camp as well, so he was adamant about this being a good thing. Tate was forced to act bummed like he was actually going.
Afterward, Tate met up with Holly for the fireworks, so they kissed in the park as someone spied on them nearby.
At home on Thursday’s Days episode, Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) and Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) got a visit from Maggie Kiriakis (Suzanne Rogers), who wanted to deliver a check to Xander.
Maggie said it was Xander’s part of the inheritance since she’d made an effort to divide the money up more fairly among the other heirs.
Xander was touched over the gesture, but he didn’t want to be so driven by money anymore and didn’t think Victor wanted him to have it anyway.
Maggie tried to talk Xander into accepting the check, but he gave it back and insisted he wanted to be his own man.
Sarah was proud and turned on after Maggie left, so she made love to Xander and watched the fireworks show with him through the window.
At the Kiriakis mansion on Thursday’s DOOL show, Justin Kiriakis (Wally Kurth) found out about Alex Kiriakis’ (Robert Scott Wilson) engagement to Theresa and clearly wasn’t thrilled about it.
When Justin pushed for an airtight prenup that would protect Alex’s fortune, Alex flashed back to Brady’s warning about Theresa and looked pensive.
Alex insisted Theresa wasn’t with him for his money – and Theresa echoed that idea when she walked in and realized they were discussing a prenup.
Theresa talked about being drawn to Alex in Greece before she ever knew he was Victor’s wealthy heir.
Alex had more flashbacks regarding Brady’s theory that Theresa snuck a peek inside the briefcase.
That left Alex looking nervous about the possibility that Theresa slept with him knowing he was going to be filthy rich.
Theresa played up how much she loved Alex, but it seemed like she could sense his apprehension.
As a result, Theresa suggested she should indeed sign a prenup, so she basically gloated to Justin and Bonnie about it.
Alex did some gloating next since he was with Theresa when they ran into Brady and Rachel in the town square.
Once Alex mentioned that Theresa offered to sign a prenup, Theresa scolded Alex and wondered what was up with him.
Theresa assumed Brady had been badmouthing her, but Alex insisted it didn’t matter since he trusted her completely.
Back with Brady on Thursday’s Days episode, he agreed to Rachel’s request for double scoops of ice cream and asked if she’d miss Tate while he was at camp.
Rachel confirmed that she would – but not as much as Holly! That left Brady looking intrigued over Rachel’s comment.
Finally, Maggie found Justin and Bonnie Kiriakis (Judi Evans) celebrating the Fourth of July with party horns before she revealed that Xander turned down his inheritance check, which impressed Justin.
Days of Our Lives spoilers say Xander will learn he’s Victor’s biological son down the road, so we’ll bring you updates on the shockers ahead and predictions on how he’ll learn the real story.
