Days of Our Lives Spoilers Next 2 Weeks: Xander Exposes EJ as Gwen’s Captor Is Finally Revealed

DAYS OF OUR LIVES SPOILERS PROVE EJ DIMERA IS TURNING INTO STEFANO

TL;DR: Days of Our Lives spoilers for July 27 through August 7 bring Xander exposing EJ’s Holly frame-up, Susan’s monster warning, Lexie’s desperate swap to save Kristen, and a rescue mission to Alamainia for Gwen.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers July 27 to 31: Xander Blows EJ’s Frame-Up Wide Open

Days of Our Lives spoilers next 2 weeks promise the ugliest stretch of EJ DiMera‘s reign yet, streaming July 27 through August 7 on Peacock. Xander Cook Kiriakis opens the week armed with the truth. He finally worked out that EJ planted those pills in Holly Jonas‘s bag, and he lays the whole rotten scheme out for Sarah Horton and Brady Black.

Sarah spent weeks doubting her own patient through Holly’s poisoning nightmare, so learning the relapse was staged should light a fire under her. Holly gets a sweeter surprise when Tate Black comes back to patch things up. Marlena Evans corners EJ with advice about following his conscience. Good luck finding it, Doc.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers Deliver Susan’s Monster Warning and Lexie’s Island Trade

Susan Banks blows back into Salem on Wednesday, July 29, and EJ’s mother did not come for tea. She warns her boy he is turning into a monster, the same breed as his late father Stefano. Considering EJ claimed the Phoenix ring in February, she is not wrong.

Then there is the island shipment. EJ has a jet fueled and the DiMera island prepped for Kristen DiMera, payback for the river horror she set in motion in May. Her escape plan is a heartbreaker, because a dying Lexie Carver intends to switch places with her before that plane leaves Salem.

Lexie spends her borrowed time beautifully first. Fresh off renewing her vows with Abe Carver on July 23, and still raw from her blistering confrontation with EJ over the resurrection, she packs lost holidays into one week with Abe and their son Theo Carver. Then the swap collapses, because EJ arrives to oversee the operation himself and pulls his sister into a brutally honest reckoning.

Could EJ actually stand down? Don’t be surprised if Marlena’s conscience talk and his mother’s warning crack something open. My gut tells me Kristen never boards that plane, but the price will sting.

The Black family grabs one bright spot midweek, celebrating Rachel Black‘s release from Bayview. Across town, Johnny DiMera works overtime lifting the spirits of Chanel DiMera while her chemo grinds on.

What Happens on Days of Our Lives the Week of July 27?

The week of July 27 delivers Xander’s frame-up reveal, Susan’s monster warning, the failed island swap and a confession that lands like a grenade. Here is the through-line nobody else is drawing: every bomb traces back to one man. DiMera Pharmaceuticals buried tainted Coriseal on Smith Island, arsenic bled into the Horton cabin well, Holly drank it, and EJ has staged cover-ups ever since, from anonymous tips to planted pills. Stack the island shipment on top and EJ is completing the transformation into his father in real time.

Cat Greene thought she buried Gwen Rizczech‘s secrets when she wiped that dead man’s switch file, yet a written confession lands in her hands this week. Circulating spoiler chatter says it spells out how Gwen once held Dimitri hostage, and when Cat brings it to Rafe Hernandez, he may decide Gwen’s captor forced every word. Leo Stark connects the dots straight to Dimitri and races for Alamainia to bring Gwen home.

Back home, Joy, the mother of Alex Kiriakis‘s baby girl, hits him with a demand so bold that Alex swears to Stephanie Johnson he will never cave. Joy then runs to Belle Black for legal muscle, with everything from a restraining order to custody hardball in the chatter. Gabi Hernandez softens as Philip Kiriakis pleads his innocence in the counterfeit purse mess, then swings her suspicion toward DiMera Enterprises.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers August 3 to 7: Alamainia Showdown and a Counterfeit Betrayal

The August 3 to 7 stretch belongs to the rescue mission. Rafe follows Leo overseas and helps him bargain with Dimitri for Gwen’s freedom. The two friends have been mending fences for months, and a man who storms a foreign country for you tends to earn permanent forgiveness.

Back in Salem, Gabi digs up fresh clues in the counterfeit case, and reading between the lines, they may point somewhere she cannot bear to look. Arianna Horton has been seething since June over the payoff that ran Liam out of town. Don’t be surprised if the bag scheme is Ari’s revenge, because if I know these writers, a mother and daughter explosion is coming.

Sound off under this article with the twist you never saw coming, because our readers call these turns better than half the writers room.

EJ DiMera Has Officially Become His Father’s Darkest Sequel

Our take is simple: Susan is right. EJ covered up the poison that nearly killed a young woman, framed her to bury the trail, and booked his own sister a one-way ticket into exile. The Phoenix ring fits better than it should.

Still, Salem adores a redemption story, and putting Marlena and Susan on conscience duty in the same week is no accident. So where do you land, Team Redemption or Team Let the Phoenix Burn? Come take a side with the rowdiest DAYS fans around on our Facebook page.
