    Days of Our Lives : Everything to know about what happened in the week

    EJ’s hypnosis reveals a shocking clue

    EJ kept meeting Marlena to try to remember what happened when he was shot. While she was under hypnosis, EJ remembered an important fact: the shooter was a woman. This new information changed the way the investigation was going and made people suspicious of Belle and other women in Salem. Later, EJ issued a subpoena to Marlena, which made their relationship as doctor and patient more difficult. Marlena was torn between her job as a psychiatrist and what the court wanted her to do. This development on the plot made the trial seem more serious and put Marlena in an awkward spotlight. It also made EJ doubt his trust in those close to him even more.

    Belle walks in on Tate and Holly

    Belle found Tate and Holly together in the middle of the week, which was a shocking scene. Their secret relationship had stayed a secret, but Belle's shocking discovery shook up their relationship and put her in a tough moral spot. As family members tried to make sense of what Belle had seen, the effects spread further into Salem. That incident also added to EJ's suspicions, since Belle was already being watched because of EJ's testimony. She had a difficult week since she was a family member and had something to do with the trial.


    Sophia’s emotional breakdown

    Sophia finally broke down at the end of the week. She tried to stay strong, but when she heard the sad news about Tate and the adoptive parents at the pub, she broke down. When Ari and Tesoro showed up, Sophia's feelings got out of hand, making her deal with her problems in public. This event showed how much Sophia was struggling inside and how fragile she was. Her storyline gave the episodes of the week more emotional weight and depicted how family problems and secrets can have long-lasting effects.


    Days of Our Lives episodes are available to stream on Peacock.
