It’s not everyone that can leave Kristen DiMera speechless. In the Days of our Lives recap for September 15, 2023, Gwen proves that she is indeed smarter than your average bear.
Days of our Lives Recap Highlights
In addition, Maggie temporarily retreats, and Theresa makes a nuisance of herself. Now, let’s dig a little deeper into what happened.
Days of our Lives Recap: Wedded Miss
His midmorning drag routine ruined, Leo (Greg Rikaart) opened his door to Gwen (Emily O’Brien) — ironically the woman he’d just been impersonating — who barreled on in and proceeded to bemoan about her and Dimitri’s (Peter Porte) overactive sex life. Oh, it’s just too much. They’re going at it all the time. Constantly shagging morning, noon, and night. Before dinner and after dinner. “It’s like someone’s just fed a very horny Popeye his spinach.” And boy, was Leo right. Dimitri does have a magic penis. Also, what an adventurer. Always willing to try every position at least once. Their recent discovery was the “Pinball Wizard,” a move that made the “Venus Butterfly” look like child’s play. Despite himself, Leo momentarily lost his cool, very nearly blowing his and Dimitri’s cover in the process, but he was luckily able to sufficiently recover.
In contrast, Dimitri, high on the first installment of his trust, not only acknowledged to Auntie Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) that the “gossiping little gecko” she was denigrating was the man he loved, but he also took great delight in denying her a portion of the cash. Kristen responded by saddling up to her claimed bestie and confessing that Dimitri and Leo were having an affair. “Oh my goodness, Kristen. “I already knew that,” Gwen murmured.
DAYS Recap: Changing Of The Guard
Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) dropped by the Kiriakis mansion to apologize to Maggie (Suzanne Rogers) for being unable to attend Victor’s memorial ceremony. Soon after, Vivian (Louise Sorel) arrived and informed Julie of the previous events, including the destroyed will, the fact that Vivian and Victor’s marriage was never dissolved, and Vivina’s request for Maggie to depart the premises.
There were also some veiled threats made at Lani’s (Sal Stowers) and her twins’ expense, but Julie decided to let those go in order to focus on Maggie and her plight. And while Vivian sauntered off, Julie worked to convince Maggie to pack a bag and move in with her and Doug (Bill Hayes) — for the time being.
DOOL Recap: Bad Behavior
Gabi (Camila Banus) and Stefan (Brandon Barash) decided to blackmail Dimitri for his involvement with Leo at the DiMera home. Their silence would cost him and Megan their voting rights. Gabi, Stefan, Dimitri, and Kristen were forced to deal with a visiting Vivian, who hoped against hope that Dimitri would take care of his mother’s side of the family rather than his father’s, what with her being a sworn enemy of the Von Leuschners and all.
Post blackmail, Dimitri made a beeline for Leo’s hotel room, but his lover was more interested in taking him to task for cheating on him with his wife! At the same time, Maggie took her leave of Victor’s home — but not before insisting to Vivian that the war between them was just getting started.
Days of our Lives Recap: Best Laid Plans
Meanwhile, Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) was amused to open his door to Theresa (Jen Lilley), who had followed him and Brady (Eric Martsolf) in the hopes of impressing Alex by being useful. The men begged Theresa to stay at the hotel while they went adventuring, which may or may not have been a smart idea given that it was Theresa who answered the door to someone carrying a critical clue to the men’s hunt.
