DAYS OF OUR LIVES SPOILERS: EJ’S SHOCKING SELF-SHOOTING SCHEME – DID DIMERA ORCHESTRATE HIS OWN ATTEMPTED MURDER?

SALEM’S MASTER MANIPULATOR MIGHT BE PULLING HIS BIGGEST CON YET

The pieces are falling into place, and DAYS fans are starting to see a shocking possibility unfold. As EJ DiMera awakens from his coma with convenient memory gaps, a bombshell theory is gaining traction: What if EJ shot HIMSELF?

EJ’s selective amnesia is raising serious red flags. While he remembers visitors like Belle Black with her wiretap, Chanel Dupree yelling about adoption, and Kristen DiMera raging about their mother, there’s one critical person missing from his memory—Rafe Hernandez.

This isn’t just a random memory lapse. It’s the smoking gun.

THE MASTER PLAN REVEALED?

Before the shooting, EJ made a toast to Stefano DiMera’s portrait, smugly declaring that he “beat everyone.” At the time, it seemed like typical DiMera arrogance. Now? It looks more like foreshadowing.

According to the growing theory, EJ discovered the bug that Rafe planted in his living room and decided to use it to his advantage. Instead of removing it, he deliberately positioned himself near the recording device and calmly said “What are you doing?” to create the audio illusion of someone threatening him.

Let’s be real—this wouldn’t be the first time a DiMera pulled such a stunt. Remember when Andre DiMera shot himself to frame John Black? The apple doesn’t fall far from the family tree of manipulation.

DID THE PLAN GO WRONG?

If EJ did orchestrate his own shooting, something clearly went awry. The bullet may have caused more damage than anticipated, leading to seizures, a coma, and memory loss that wiped out his recollection of the scheme.

Now, Salem’s most calculating resident might not even remember his own plot! That’s some serious backfire.

DR. ROLF INSURANCE POLICY

Of course, no DiMera scheme would be complete without a backup plan. With Dr. Rolf always on standby, EJ may have felt confident taking such an extreme risk, knowing medical intervention was just a phone call away if things went south.

The big question remains—who was EJ planning to frame? With a laundry list of enemies in Salem, the possibilities are endless. But one thing’s certain: when EJ eventually “remembers” who shot him, we should all take his revelation with a massive grain of salt.

This could be the culmination of his original plot—transforming public hatred into sympathy while simultaneously punishing an enemy. It’s diabolical. It’s dangerous.

It’s pure DiMera.

What do you think? Has EJ orchestrated the ultimate scheme, or is he truly the victim here? The truth will eventually come out in Salem—it always does. But until then, we’re watching his every move with suspicious eyes.
