DAYS Fans Rally Behind Alex After Epic Confrontation with Sarah

The tension between Alex Kiriakis and Sarah Horton has been building for weeks, and in Thursday’s episode, it finally exploded in a confrontation that had viewers cheering their televisions! When Alex finally let loose on Sarah about her web of lies and manipulation, fans took to social media to express their delight at seeing someone finally call her out.

ALEX PUTS SARAH IN HER PLACE—AND FANS ARE HERE FOR IT

Let’s be real—Sarah’s behavior lately has been driving viewers up the wall. Once a beloved character, she’s now fallen dramatically out of favor as she continues to lie to Xander while dragging others into her deception. The hypocrisy of it all? She’s constantly criticized Xander for being dishonest, yet here she is, keeping massive secrets and expecting everyone else to lie for her too!

Not gonna lie seeing Alex yell at Sarah about her lies & putting everyone in her lies was so good to watch. I was not expecting it but Alex made some good ass points. I just wanna c how Xander handle the news about his brother n wife lies. But most of all sami is back #days

When Alex confronted Sarah about her scheming ways, drawing parallels to how Theresa once did the same thing to him, it was like he was channeling the frustration of viewers everywhere. The powerful scene showcased Robert Scott Wilson’s impressive acting skills—proving that while some fans might question the show recycling actors for different roles, nobody’s questioning his talent!

FANS TURNING AGAINST ONCE-BELOVED SARAH

Remember when we all used to root for Sarah? Those days seem long gone. Her character has taken such a nosedive that viewers who once adored her are now actively turning against her. The request for Stephanie to claim she was sleeping with Philip just to protect Sarah’s secret? That was the last straw for many.

DRAMA! Oh, my gosh The scenes with #Days #Stalex #AlexKiriakis @MrRobertScott #Xarah #Sarah #LinseyGodfrey were phenomenal. His anger is intense; They're facing each other, these scenes are so tense! I love the way he protects Xander and Steph, but it's so

What makes this storyline particularly fascinating (and frustrating) is that Linsey Godfrey herself has admitted she’s struggling with it. In a January interview, she revealed she found the plot challenging because “it’s so anti-Sarah.” She explained, “Sarah is a terrible liar, and she’s very uncomfortable with deceiving people. That’s her main issue with Xander, is that he doesn’t tell the truth all the time. So the idea that she, who has these very strong views about keeping secrets, is keeping a secret is so not her.”

THE HYPOCRISY IS REAL—AND SO IS THE DRAMA

The biggest head-scratcher in all of this? Sarah’s convinced that Xander would never forgive her if he learned about the forged letter from Philip. Um, hello? This is the same Xander who has committed actual crimes! The man has kidnapped people, for crying out loud! And she thinks THIS is the dealbreaker?

@Annkert @MrRobertScott Alex is drunk with Rage over what sarah has done. It's eating him alive n he's furious!! Sarah stans firm with her reasoning!! Such a great scene BTW them!!!

The confrontation between Alex and Sarah wasn’t just good soap—it was great television, period. The raw emotion, the accusations flying, the history being dredged up… it’s exactly what keeps us coming back to Days of Our Lives after all these years.

HAVE SARAH AND XANDER LEARNED NOTHING?

How many times do we need to go through this same scenario with Sarah and Xander? They lie, they fight, they make up, and then someone lies again. It’s an exhausting cycle that has fans begging for them to just come clean with each other already!

The irony here is that Sarah seems to have learned absolutely nothing from her past mistakes. Remember when she tried to pass off Victoria as Rex Brady’s daughter? That blew up spectacularly, yet here she is again, keeping major secrets from her husband and expecting others to compromise their own integrity to help her.

If Alex’s confrontation accomplishes anything, hopefully it will be forcing Sarah to take a good, hard look at her own behavior. And if not? Well, at least we got to see Alex deliver some harsh truths that were long overdue!

WHAT’S NEXT FOR THIS TANGLED WEB?

With Alex now firmly standing his ground against Sarah’s manipulation, the question becomes: will he be the one to finally tell Xander the truth? And if so, what will the fallout be? Despite Sarah’s fears, something tells me Xander will be more upset about being lied to than about the actual secret itself.

As for Alex, this confrontation has cemented him as a fan-favorite character, regardless of who played the role before. Robert Scott Wilson has truly made Alex his own, and viewers are responding with enthusiasm to his portrayal of a man unwilling to be complicit in someone else’s deception.

One thing’s for sure—the drama in Salem is far from over. With secrets still buried and emotions running high, we’re in for plenty more explosive confrontations in the days ahead. And frankly? We can’t wait!
