Recapping Days of Our Lives: Chad’s Quest for Abigail

Chad has an intense desire to know whether Abigail is truly alive, but it suffers a setback when Jack suddenly shows up at the Horton House. His sudden appearance on Abigail's death anniversary leads to an emotional conflict, as Chad and Julie had planned on opening a safety deposit box. The box is believed to have contained crucial details about Abigail in Chicago.

However, when Jack shows up, the two delay their plan, which the former has no clue about. When he hears a part of their conversation, he wonders what was happening, but Chad tries to manage the situation, even though Jack's presence has complicated things. Julie tries to keep Jack busy with Thomas and Charlotte to divert his attention, but the stress in Days of Our Lives continues.


Sarah’s Struggles with Xander’s Past in Days of Our Lives

At the Kiriakis estate in Days of Our Lives, Sarah is on her own quest and tries to contact Xander's mother using the number he gave her. However, the person on the other end is unrelated to Xander's family. This leaves her feeling curious about Xander and his history.

Xander, however, doesn't seem disturbed by this and even claims that it might be better this way. He tries to console Sarah, as she is disturbed by all the unanswered questions about his family.


Marlena’s Encounters

Marlena's day begins with a call from Leo, who is upset about a dream, but she tells him to call her only when he has serious problems, leaving Leo feeling uneasy. However, he didn't give up and managed to meet Marlena, telling her about his loneliness and broken heart due to his past relationships. Marlena advises him to focus on himself and learn to love himself.

Later in the episode, Alex goes to her office, asking her for help with his relationship with Theresa, and states that he wants to commit fully to her. He adds that he wanted Marlena's approval. While she praises Alex for his progress, she doesn't directly tell him if he should trust Theresa, but tells him that it was up to him to decide.


Theresa’s Dilemma in Days of Our Lives

Theresa is caught between her history with Brady and her potential future with Alex in Days of Our Lives. She talks to Victor's picture, confessing that being with Brady always leads to trouble and that Alex seems like the better choice. When Alex tells her that he loves her, she is surprised before confessing that she loves him too. This shows a new start to their relationship.

She meets Leo at Horton Square, making her day even more complicated as Leo asks her a lot of questions about Konstantin and his reasons. This annoys and upsets Theresa. Their conversation shows that Theresa is firm in her beliefs, even though Leo is doubtful.


Truth about Konstantin's death in Days of Our Lives

Maggie woke up and saw Sarah lying next to her, and wondered what had happened to Konstantin when Xander entered the room. He confesses that he killed Konstantin in a fit of rage and tells them how Victor threatened Victoria, leading him to shoot Konstantin.

While Maggie understands the reasoning behind Xander's actions, she is still shocked. She is happy that Konstantin is no longer alive, but she wishes that she had murdered him herself. They start discussing Victor's life and his complex relationship with Xander. It dawns on Maggie that though Victor was hard on Xander, the latter was still more faithful and closer to him than his own sons.

The episode in Days of Our Lives ends with Julie and Chad finally arriving in Chicago as they anxiously wait to gain access to the safety deposit box. What lies in the box is a mystery, with fans awaiting its contents. There is a possibility of the contents of the box significantly impacting Salem and the questions around Abigail's fate in Days of Our Lives.

Chad and Julie will open the mystery box in the upcoming episode of Days of Our Lives. Fans can subscribe to Peacock. They can also watch Days of Our Lives on Amazon Prime Video, in certain countries.
