A TRAP IS SET, A BLESSING IS GIVEN, AND A FAKE FIANCÉE STEPS INTO THE SPOTLIGHT

TL;DR: Monday’s Spoilers hit all five soaps hard. Beyond the Gates watches a husband quietly test the wife he no longer trusts, while General Hospital sends one schemer into motion and lets two young hearts stumble onto a secret. Young and the Restless has a father greenlighting a corporate war and a brother handing out a warning of his own. Days of Our Lives serves up a rejected offer and a proposal nobody saw coming, and The Bold and the Beautiful finds two rivals reaching common ground while guilt creeps in elsewhere. Grab your coffee.


Beyond the Gates Spoilers

Bill Hamilton isn’t in the mood for another home-cooked lie. Having already caught Hayley Lawson slipping something into his food and sneaking off for secret meetups, he’s decided the only way forward is to watch and wait. One wrong move from his wife, and Monday could be the day her whole scheme finally boils over.

Over at the Dupree house, Dani Dupree fills Nicole Dupree Richardson in on the unease rattling her marriage. She has no idea how close to home the real answer actually sits. Meanwhile, Ted Richardson draws on his own painful history to counsel Andre Richardson, and the advice lands harder than either man lets on.

Grayson Perez leans on Jacob Hawthorne for backup as old fears about a killer still on the loose come roaring back. Elon Hawthorne grills Joey Armstrong for answers he isn’t ready to give, and Heather Armstrong proves yet again she’s always three steps ahead of anyone chasing her.

General Hospital Spoilers

Sonny Corinthos tries to talk someone off a ledge with a little reassurance, though whether it actually sticks is another matter entirely. Britt Westbourne and Willow Tait find themselves on unexpectedly friendly footing, a pairing nobody saw coming given everything simmering under the surface between their orbits.

Dante Falconeri tries steering Harrison Chase away from a fight that’s already cost plenty of people their peace. Rocco Falconeri and Scout Cain stumble onto something they weren’t meant to find, a secret with the potential to rattle both of their families.

Drew Cain finally makes his move, putting a plan against a longtime enemy into motion with someone else doing the dirty work. It’s the kind of gamble that could either bury the competition or blow up spectacularly in his face.

Young and the Restless Spoilers

Victor Newman gives Victoria Newman his blessing to come after a rival company, a green light that could send shockwaves through more than one boardroom. It’s a rare moment of father-daughter unity, but knowing this family, the peace won’t last.

Nick Newman delivers a chilly warning to Phyllis Summers, unwilling to let her drag his family further into her search for a missing man. Phyllis isn’t the type to back down quietly, so expect fireworks.

Stephanie Simmons turns on the charm with Nate Hastings, and the sparks that have been building between them get harder to ignore. Whether Nate lets himself enjoy it is a whole other question.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers

Gwen Rizczech shuts down an offer from EJ DiMera, refusing to let him buy his way back into a fight he’s already losing. It’s a small win, but a satisfying one after everything he’s put her through.

Cat Greene sits down with Rafe Hernandez and finally comes clean about something she’s been sitting on. The timing couldn’t be worse, given how tangled she already is with EJ.

Philip Kiriakis drops a proposal on Gabi DiMera that leaves her stunned, though anyone who knows Philip’s high-stakes games should have seen some version of this coming. Elsewhere, Marlena Evans steps in to help Xander Kiriakis, and Leo Stark reaches out to Javi Hernandez after a rough breakup neither of them saw coming.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers

Taylor Hayes and Brooke Logan manage to find rare common ground, setting aside decades of rivalry for the sake of the family drama currently threatening to swallow them all. It won’t erase their history, but it’s a start.

Li Finnegan can’t shake the feeling that she’s the one who opened the door for Sheila Carter to cause all this chaos in the first place. Guilt is a heavy thing to carry, especially when Sheila’s still out there doing exactly what everyone feared she would.


Which storyline has you the most obsessed? Drop it in the comments below, we’re dying to talk about this!


Somebody’s About to Regret Underestimating This Group

Five soaps, five slow-burn fuses, and every single one of them is threatening to go off. A husband is closing in on the truth in Fairmont Crest, a corporate war is about to erupt in Genoa City, and in Salem, a fake engagement might be the least believable lie told all day. By the time the credits roll on Monday, at least one of these families is going to wish they’d left well enough alone.

Her feline overlords have yet to develop an interest in daytime drama, but she’s working on it.Let the record show: Ashley is Brandon Barash’s biggest fan.
