Spoilers and news for Monday, September 25’s episodes of Days of Our Lives hint at paternity shocks, conflict, and momma bear attacks! The mother bear attacks, shocking Maggie and Justin Kiriakis (Suzanne Rogers and Wally Kurth). Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) and Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) are having conflict.
At Julie and Doug Williams’ (Susan Seaforth Hayes, Bill Hayes) home, Maggie and Justin opened the recovered briefcase that Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) had delivered Justin at Brady’s Pub. They will still be stunned by what they find when they read the modified will. Brady and Justin are unsure as to why Shane Donovan (Charles Shaughnessy), who gave Brady the briefcase, left it with Theresa Donovan (Jen Lilley).
There will be more shocks in regards to Victor Kiriakis’ (John Aniston) will. There may even be questions as to if it’s legit!
Elsewhere, friction continues between Xander and Sarah, some over baby Victoria Margaret Horton (uncast) and some over Sarah’s impending wedding to Rex Brady (Kyle Lowder). They’ll have to find someone else to officiate since Maggie didn’t feel it was right to officiate a sham marriage to keep Xander from finding out he’s a dad.
However, it appears like they will find another partner and actually go through with the marriage. Maggie might not even show up as the mother of the bride at this point! Meanwhile, news of Kate being pressured by Vivian Alamain (Louise Sorel) to have Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) serve as her right-hand man at Titan has reached her.
Knowing Philip is still vulnerable that even he turned Vivian down, Kate goes all mommy bear and gets into her, suggesting she take his place in the mental institution! For starters, Vivian shouldn’t keep insisting that Philip is her son; after all, he must have told his mother as well.
Vivian even tempted him with a payment of Chloe Lane (Nadia Bjorlin) returned to him if he’d work for her. Who does Vivian think she is, she can’t promise that! Apparently giving up on Philip, now Vivian’s pressuring Alex – Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) quit, John Black (Drake Hogestyn) refused, and Philip told her to go to the nether regions where she belongs!
Since Maggie fired him and Vivian can’t manage to hire anyone at Titan, she probably believes he will be accepted. When he sees the changes she’s made, even Alex will probably hesitate to join a glorified drug trafficking organization! Alex might not require a job after Victor’s will has been read, though!
Chloe hears Rex and Philip conversing in Horton Town Square as she exits a bridal shop after choosing her own wedding gown. Rex told Philip that he and Sarah were getting married after he had caught him hurrying around the plaza. He waited to tell their mother Kate since he felt bad for lying and didn’t want to.
Chloe walked up just as Rex told Philip that Xander was the baby’s father. Monday, the drama from this cliffhanger continues!
