Your Weekly Salem Survival Guide
Buckle up, Salem fans, because this week of Days of Our Lives is serving medical drama, DiMera dysfunction, and teenage chaos in equal measure.

Monday, December 1
Sarah Horton drops a bombshell on Maggie Kiriakis that leaves her mother absolutely REELING. What could possibly shock the woman who’s survived multiple husbands and a grandchild custody battle? Meanwhile, Gwen Rizczech shows a surprising soft side when she takes pity on Xander Cook Kiriakis, because apparently enemies-to-friends is the vibe this holiday season. Over at the DiMera mansion, EJ DiMera and Theo Carver are teaming up, which is either brilliant or a disaster waiting to happen. And if you thought Thanksgiving was behind us, think again. Abe Carver, Paulina Price, Johnny DiMera, and Chanel Dupree can’t catch a break with their delayed holiday meal.

Leo Stark and Javi Hernandez have a “scratchy” encounter with Gwen Rizczech, and honestly, we’re here for any scene where Leo Stark opens his mouth. Cat Greene goes to EJ DiMera for help, which feels like walking into a lion’s den and asking to pet the kitty. The REAL news? Kayla Brady Johnson confirms Marlena Evans’ diagnosis, and Belle Black is already asking Paulina Price for support. Whatever this diagnosis is, it’s serious enough to have Belle running to the mayor. Brady Black is also struggling to get through to Rachel Black, which tracks because that child has been on a MISSION lately.

Marlena Evans confides in Leo Stark, and if THAT doesn’t tell you how desperate she is, nothing will. When the legendary Dr. Marlena Evans is telling her problems to Salem’s resident chaos agent, you know things are BAD. Kate Roberts and Maggie Kiriakis discuss Titan business, Tate Black makes a promise to Brady Black that we really hope he keeps, and Holly Jonas frets to Arianna Horton. But the real kicker? Sophia Choi shocks Rachel Black, and given Rachel’s recent behavior, she probably deserves whatever’s coming.

Cat Greene triggers EJ DiMera’s memory, and we are VERY interested to see what skeletons come tumbling out of that closet. Steve Johnson inserts himself between Alex Kiriakis and Stephanie Johnson, because Papa Steve has never met a daughter’s relationship he couldn’t meddle in. Chanel Dupree debates with Johnny DiMera, Holly Jonas cheers up Tate Black, and in a plot twist nobody saw coming, Rachel Black and Sophia Choi are BONDING. These two troublemakers becoming friends? Salem better WATCH OUT.
Friday, December 5
EJ DiMera becomes fixated on his past, which is either going to lead to a major revelation or a spectacular breakdown. Jack Deveraux advises Thomas DiMera, Gabi DiMera warns Theo Carver about something she probably knows from experience, and Cat Greene offers Jennifer Horton a deal that sounds suspicious. The week wraps with Kristen DiMera and Tony DiMera updating Chad DiMera, because the DiMeras really can’t go five minutes without a family meeting about their latest drama.
