DAYS HOT PLOT! Sophia Choi Is Out of Bayview, Her Pill Scheme Is Unraveling, and Baby Trey Is Not Safe

SOPHIA CHOI IS CORNERED AND EVEN MELINDA TRASK IS WARNING CHANEL AND JOHNNY!

TL;DR: Sophia Choi is walking free, her scheme to drug Holly is about to be exposed, and with the adoption finalized and every ally turning on her, the only move she has left is the most dangerous one: going after baby Trey.

Listen to the Baby Crying

Sophia Choi is out of Bayview. She is walking around Salem like she didn’t just spend weeks faking a catatonic state, blackmailing her own lawyer, and orchestrating a pill switch that had Holly Jonas ingesting antipsychotic medication disguised as supplements. And this week on Days of Our Lives, every single wall she built around that scheme is about to come crashing down.

But here is the detail that should be making every fan’s skin crawl. When Melinda Trask came to warn Johnny DiMera and Chanel Dupree that Sophia was not going back to Bayview, baby Trey was crying in the background. Consistently. Through the entire scene. That is not random. That is Days of Our Lives putting a flashing red light over a crib and daring you to ignore it.

The Walls Are Closing In

Brady Black already knows. Rachel Black told her father the truth: Sophia was the one who gave her the pills to give to Holly. That means it is only a matter of time before Brady tells Tate and Holly everything. And spoilers confirm that by midweek, Tate and Holly feel vindicated because they have proof of exactly what Sophia did.

But it gets worse for Sophia. On Wednesday, Kristen DiMera rips into her for involving Rachel in the scheme. Kristen is a lot of things, but she is ferociously protective of her daughter, and Sophia used Rachel as a delivery system for a crime. That is not the kind of enemy you want when you are already cornered.

And then there is the science of it. Holly’s blood tests already showed antipsychotic medication in her system. If they compare the levels in Rachel’s system to what they find in Holly’s, the math is going to be damning. Rachel was supposed to be taking those pills. Holly was not. The dosage trail leads directly back to Sophia Choi.

A Cornered Sophia Is the Most Dangerous Sophia

Here is what fans need to understand about where Sophia Choi is right now. She lost the adoption hearing. EJ took over the case and laid out her entire history of unhinged behavior in front of the judge. She terminated her own parental rights. The adoption of baby Trey by Johnny and Chanel is finalized. She has no legal recourse. Melinda is terrified of her but also terrified of losing her law license. Rachel is about to flip on her completely. Amy is begging her to stay home. And every person in Salem who has been fooled by her is about to find out the truth.

That is a woman with zero options and zero impulse control. And her biological son is sleeping in a crib across town with parents who have no idea what is coming.

That Look in Her Eyes at the Pub

Sophia pranced into the Brady Pub this week, looked at Tate with a smile, said “Hi Tate” like nothing in the world was wrong, and then turned to Holly with a flat, dismissive “Holly.” That is not the behavior of a woman who has accepted her situation. That is the behavior of a woman who still believes she is winning. Tate and Holly do not yet know she was behind the pill switch. They are confused about why she is even free. And Sophia is standing in front of them radiating the kind of confidence that only comes from someone who has already decided what she is going to do next.

The baby was crying when Melinda delivered the news. Sophia’s eyes were cold when she walked into that pub. And every single person who could have stopped her is about to be too busy dealing with the fallout of the pill exposure to notice that the real threat was never the medication. It was always the mother who lost her child and refuses to let go.

What do you think Sophia is planning next? Is baby Trey safe? And will Johnny and Chanel figure out the danger before it is too late? Sound off below because we need to talk about this!

WATCH THIS: The apple truly doesn’t fall far from the tree.

@soapoperamag Rachel is learning a hard lesson I don't think it will be enough to change her ways with all that DiMera blood coursing through her veins. But, hey, at least she's finding out why scheming, lying, and playing dangerous games means winning terrible prizes. #DAYS #DOOL #DaysofOurLives ♬ original sound – Soap Opera Magazine
