Days of our Lives 2-Week Spoilers Aug 17-28: Theo’s Fierce Outburst & Xander Feels the Pull!

Days of Our Lives new spoilers for the next two weeks starting August 17th stun with Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) completely enraged by somebody in the family who lied right to his face. Plus, Xander Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) gets a very tempting offer, but it might be from someone he despises.

Also, the two weeks of August 17th through the 28th, there’s Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowels) in labor with things going wrong as she starts to bleed out. Plus, Lexie has her last moments and Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) plays a dangerous game as her bestie returns. Let’s start on Monday, August 17th’s episode of Days.

We’re going to pick up from Friday with Abe Carver (James Reynolds) and Theo horrified to see Lexie in the room below the DiMera Mansion. And Abe and Theo are going to get Lexie moved ASAP over to Salem University Hospital. While they are there, they are going to get devastating news from Kayla Johnson (Mary Beth Evans) about Lexie’s prognosis. Her time is definitely almost up.

This week, we’ve got Abe and Theo creeping quietly into Lexie’s hospital room, and Theo saying, “Hey, mom.” And Lexie looks really bad. Meanwhile, also picking back up from Friday’s cliffhanger, Chanel goes into labor at the apartment. Lonnie, Paulina Price (Jackee Harry), and Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) hurry to get Chanel over to the hospital as well.

And they get Ari and baby Aaron to watch little Trey. Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) is urging Gwen to cooperate with Jada up at the SPD cop shop. They need Gwen to testify against EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) and may try threats, but Gwen’s more the kind of girl that responds to a carrot, not a stick.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Theo Rages

Javi Hernandez (Jacob Martinez) finds out Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) sacrificed his freedom to save Gwen from Dimitri’s clutches and he’s impressed. Then on Tuesday, August 18th, Theo is laying into his cousin Johnny DiMera who knew Lexie was down in the tunnel room but didn’t tell Theo. So they’re up at the hospital and he’s ranting at Johnny asking, “What other heinous things have you been covering up?” Well, a lot actually. Arsenic, corosil, kidnapping, attempted murder.

JJ goes looking for his sister Gwen this week. And I’m wondering if JJ is going to ask Gwen to help take down EJ. Also this week, we have JJ talking to Theo up at the hospital. And I’m guessing JJ is there to offer comfort to his former bestie. Holly and Tate are playing Cupid for Aaron and Ari. We know Aaron already kissed Ariana. And things may spark soon with a little help from Tate and Holly, especially while Aaron and Ari are on babysitting duty with baby Trey. And of course, Aaron seems to be enjoying some time with his and Sophia’s baby. Foster makes a move on his date with Julie. And Foster kisses a stunned Julie.

Wednesday, August 19th on Days of Our Lives. Still in Alamania. Leo’s pushing back hard, telling Dimitri, “If you really love me, you’ll let me go.” But he’s shaking his head at Leo. In the end, though, Dimitri is going to let him go back to Salem. Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) tries one more time to convince Gabi to bankroll him $5 million for the high stakes poker game in Monte Carlo. Seems insane to think Philip could win $200 million gambling to save Titan. Also, Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) hears about an offer on the mansion. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s EJ, but maybe it’s Gabi. She can’t afford to bail out Titan and pay off the whole loan, but I’m sure that she could afford the mansion.

Kate comforts Philip over at the Kiriakis home and I’m sure that he’s distraught about them losing Victor’s place. Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) and Sarah’s relationship takes a leap forward. Brady soon tells Sarah, “I love you.” And she says the same with a sweet kiss, but it’s not going to last. Marlena gets pulled into the chessboard mystery against her will.

Days of Our Lives: Gwen is Excited to see Leo

Then on Thursday, August 20th episode of Days of Our Lives, we’ve got Gus saying some things to Javi. I suspect Gus is going to snap over Javi’s concern for Leo. But the bottom line is they’re just not compatible. Theo cannot forgive Johnny. As far as Theo’s concerned, Johnny’s a liar, and Theo thinks that Johnny was going to let Lexie die alone in that Dement. So Theo may never want to see Johnny again. Too bad they’re family.

Gwen is thrilled to see Leo back in Salem. Question is, did Dimitri come along for the ride? Also, Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) is there for Joy when she gets scary news from Kayla, who tells Joy that worst case scenario is she’ll be paralyzed from this spinal stenosis. Alex hugs a devastated Joy and Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) is spying and sees it. And then we’re going to have her turning to Chad DiMera (Connor Floyd) for comfort and maybe some advice. But if Stephanie lashes out about Alex hugging Joy, I expect Alex will call out Stephanie for being petty when Joy is facing a horrible fate.

Days of Our Lives: Lexie’s Final Hours and Chanel’s Labor Crisis

Then on Friday, August 21st on Days of Our Lives, we’ve got Jada confronting EJ with questions. So Jada may grill EJ about why Lexie was in his basement. Plus, Jada may have questions about Kristen DiMera’s (Stacy Haiduk) disappearance, things from Gwen’s letter, lots of things. Abe and Theo are really hoping Lexie’s time hasn’t run out, but sadly that is not the case. This week, Theo and Abe are at Lexie’s bedside. Abe’s holding her hand. Lexie has tears in her eyes. Abe’s hand is shaking. Her time’s almost gone.

Also, we should see that summer promo moment in Lexie’s hospital room where EJ comes in to check on his sister, and Abe explodes, yelling at EJ, “Get the hell out of here.” But Lexie may speak up and tell Abe and Theo that EJ was respecting her wishes. Chanel’s labor takes a frightening turn. Paulina, Lani, and Johnny are there this week as Kayla’s checking on Chanel. Then Johnny says she’s bleeding. Kayla tells Lonnie and Paulina they got to clear out and Chanel is terrified and tells Johnny they go on with labor and delivery. And then Kayla tells Chanel that we’re in the home stretch. She’s screaming in horrible pain. Johnny’s there holding her hand. We hear a baby cry at the end of the promo, but Chanel may be in trouble.

Lonnie and Eli sit outside pacing and waiting for an update. Lonnie talks to Eli about the baby they lost because of her child birth complications. Of course, Lonnie had a ruptured placenta years back. I think it was like seven years ago, maybe. It was really bad. So, this is obviously traumatic for Lonnie as she’s worried about her sister Chanel. Hopefully, Johnny will get to see Chanel make a full recovery and the healthy birth of little Quattro despite these complications. We’ll see several families experience the circle of life as Lexie passes away just as Chanel’s baby is born. It’s going to be a bittersweet day in Salem.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: It’s Baby Time

Then the week of August 24th through the 28th, we got Chanel and Johnny’s baby born, but may have got to be in NICU since the kid’s a few weeks early, but just three. So, it’s not a terribly early birth, but there are complications. Abe and Theo lean on each other in their grief. Losing Lexie for a second time is more than devastating. Abe is likely to remain furious with EJ, even if Lexie tries to smooth things over before she dies. I’m interested to see if Theo quits his job at DiMera to get away from EJ and Johnny or if Theo collapsed back at them and kicks out Johnny.

Stephanie and Alex face a rougher road now that Joy’s got this tragic prognosis. If Stephanie’s not sympathetic, I think Alex will be annoyed with her, but this may have Joy rethinking her stance on Stephanie so that Alex isn’t stuck single parenting if Joy is paralyzed or doesn’t survive this. Leo and Javi reunite soon because he realizes it is Leo who’s his soulmate and that he’s still in love with him and not Gus.

Dimitri may not stop chasing Leo, though, and Gwen may need witness protection if she cooperates with the FBI and SPD because EJ will want revenge against his former co-conspirator. So, Gwen may wind up with a tropical island permanent vacation of her own very soon. And of course, Dimitri would think it’s karma. We may see Belle and Chad packing off to Italy soon and we’ll find out if Philip got the money to gamble on the high stakes poker game and how that went or if somebody else is going to bail out Xander, Philip, and Titan.
