Days of our lives Burning events are expected for two weeks from October 13-24, 2025 Kat Green (AnnaLynn McCord) is covering up and Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) is a major threat.
Days of our Lives: Shocking revelations and deceptive schemes – Monday, October 13
Holly Jonas (Ashley Pozemis) and Maggie Horton Kiriakis (Susan Rogers) say a very sad goodbye at the Kiriakis mansion before Holly goes to catch a flight to Paris. Meanwhile, Tate Black (Leo Howard) is surprised when his father, Brady Black (Eric Martsolf), drops the biggest bombshell on him — Tate is not the father of Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) baby. This comes out of nowhere and leaves Tate in shock.
He may doubt it at first, but when they start talking about it, the pieces start to make sense. Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) has questions for young Rachel Black (Alice Halsey). Maybe ask her granddaughter what she said to Thomas Banks (Carrie Christopher). Meanwhile, Thomas asks his cousin Rachel how to make sure Kat and Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) stay apart. Rachel’s advice is very clever – and she’s about to drag him to the dark side.
Jennifer vs. Chad on DOOL
Chad confronts Jennifer Horton (Cady McClain). He is frustrated by the pressure to break up with Kat and to deal with Jennifer’s intolerance, given her husband’s shady past. Meanwhile, Kat asks EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) for a favor – perhaps a tour of the new clinic.
EJ boasts that once complete, the lab will be impenetrable, although Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) proves otherwise while rescuing Gwen Rezkisch (Emily O’Brien). The hole Leo left might just be Cat’s way in.
Days of Our Lives: Airport Drama and Corporate Betrayal – Tuesday, October 14
Holly says goodbye to Salem while crying. She’s at the airport ready to head to Paris to live with her mother Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) and stepfather Eric Brady (Greg Vaughan). But Tate rushes in — and somehow makes it to the gate — and tells Holly, “Don’t go. Sofia’s baby isn’t mine.” It’s a desperate plea that might convince her to stay in Salem.
Gabi Hernandez (Sheree Jimenez) was shocked when Tony DiMera (Thao Penglis) betrayed her, revealing that he never planned to hand her the CEO seat. With Theo by his side, Tony delivers the news – and Theo can be his replacement. Meanwhile, Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) apologizes to Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey), although he is still hiding his role in the beating of Philip Kiriakis (Jean-Paul Lavoisier).
Belle Black (Martha Madison) is worried about her mother, Marlena, who may be suffering from another dizzy spell. Abby Carver (James Reynolds) is shocked when Theo tells him he is taking a job at Dimera Enterprises – a move that Abe strongly opposes. And Susan Banks (Stacey Haiduk) urges EJ to be patient, likely over Johnny’s continued distance.
Days of Our Lives: Confessions and Problems of Adoption – Wednesday, October 15
Paulina Price (Jackie Harry) supports Theo’s career ambitions, but Abby does not, leading to family tension. Sophia confesses everything to Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) — including the surprise that Tate isn’t her baby’s father. She may also reveal that Aaron Green (Luis Tomeo) is the real father and admit to sending those nasty text messages that ruined Johnny and Chanel’s adoption bid.
Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) and Johnny are worried about their chances of adopting Little T after Sofia’s schemes. Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) tries to help, but their chances are slim. Meanwhile, Ariana Horton (Marisa Reyes) and Holly reconnect, and potentially patch things up after Ariana breaks her word and tells Tate about Holly’s departure in… Days of our lives.
Aaron’s guilt grows when Tate tells him he is not the father of Sophia’s baby. Aaron may confront Sofia first before confessing the truth to Tate. Their friendship – and Sofia’s lies – are put to the test.
Days of Our Lives: Confrontations and Fears of the Clinic – Thursday, October 16
Leo confronts EJ and questions him about the Salem blackout and his partnership with Gwen. Leo’s motives may not be purely journalistic – he may be trying to protect Gwen despite their problems. Meanwhile, Jeremy Horton (Trevor Donovan) gives Chad advice about his breakup with Kat, as he has a lot of skeletons in his own closet.
Alex meets Jeremy at the bar and warns him to stay away from Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Cline). Kat confides in Ravi her concerns about the clinic and sneaks into the area where Gwen was trapped, taking incriminating photos of him. Later, Alex and Stephanie celebrate a small victory together.
Days of Our Lives: An explosive week ahead – October 17 and beyond
Brady and Johnny exchange updates on Sofia, while Alex and Stephanie plan. Holly teams up with Tate to expose Sofia’s lies. Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) and Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) enjoy a quiet day off, and Thomas threatens to run away unless Kat leaves Salem. During the week of October 20-24, Sofia strives to keep the truth from unraveling, but it may be too late.
Melinda can go down with her. Theo gets drawn deeper into Tony’s power play, and Gabi plots revenge – and may team up with Philip and Xander to fight back. Meanwhile, Holly and Tate’s new start faces danger as Sofia seeks to sabotage them once again. Aaron’s guilt may soon be revealed, and Thomas and Rachel continue their mischief against Kat and Chad.
