Days of our Lives Early Spoilers Aug 31-Sept 4: Holly Unleashes Fury & Stephanie Blunders Big!

Days of Our Lives Aug 31-Sept 4 ramp up with Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) losing it and raging at somebody. Plus, Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) messes up really badly.

We’re talking a potentially marriage ending mistake that she is going to need to make right. Also, the week of August 31st to September 4th, we’ve got EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) under fire, Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford)’s celebration of life, a new face in town, and concerns about a security risk.

And as we always do on early edition day, we’re going to go over what’s happening the rest of this week and then we’re going to talk about what is coming the week ahead. So, let’s get right into it.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Roman Steps Up

Wednesday, August 26th on Days of Our Lives, we’ve got Roman Brady (Josh Taylor) helping his former Salem PD partner Abe Carver (James Reynolds) with Lexie’s end-of-life celebration. We may see Roman hosting the wake at The Brady Pub because Lexie’s last wish stressed that she did not want a funeral.

Instead, she left Abe instructions that she wanted a party to celebrate her life. So, this is going to be obviously very bittersweet. Stephanie turns to her friend Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) because she’s upset with her hubby Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson).

And Stephanie tells Alex this week that they can’t keep going on like this. And he asks Stephanie, “What are you saying?” Alex may be frustrated because this is terrible timing for her to be pulling stunts because he’s got to be there for Kelsey because Joy Wesley (AlexAnn Hopkins) is going through surgery that may paralyze her.

So, this is not the time for Stephanie to be needy and jealous, but she is. And of course, Theo is grieving, so they may be boozing at Lexie’s memorial or elsewhere and cross some lines. Stephanie’s all spun up because she saw Alex hug Joy, but she doesn’t understand the context and the terrible turn this medical crisis has taken.

DOOL Spoilers: Cat Questions EJ

Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) questions EJ on Wednesday. If you recall, Cat remembered something huge in her hypnosis session with Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall). Cat told EJ she was ISA. Cat also talked about Clyde Weston (James Read), which was interesting.

So, looks like Cat was under his control at that point as well. I do wonder how much Clyde knew about Cat’s ISA status, if anything. So far, EJ’s had very scant memories return of their time at the clinic, and it’s frustrating him. Remember, Marlena told him he was unconscious, so his brain wasn’t making or storing memories.

Cat’s worried, and she wants to know if EJ remembers that she confessed she’s a spy. Shawn Brady (Brandon Beemer) sets up a romantic evening with Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) at the Bistro. And Marlena is worried about Belle Black (Martha Madison)’s plans, probably for Italy and the chess set mystery.

Julie already told Chad DiMera (Connor Floyd) he should not go to Italy. So, we’ll see if Belle goes alone or with him or with Marlena since the mystery was designed for her and John Black (Drake Hogestyn). I don’t think Chad’s going to stop, though.

Days Spoilers: Stephanie Messes Up

Thursday, August 27th on Days of Our Lives, Alex drops baby girl Kelsey off with his stepmom Bonnie Lockhart (Judi Evans) so that he can take Stephanie out on a date. But is she with Theo when Alex goes looking for Stephanie? Rob Wilson said recently that Stephanie does something bad.

She makes a poor decision that really disappoints Alex. So, it doesn’t sound like sex, but maybe something else. Holly is furious and she confronts EJ on Thursday. I expect Holly will lay into EJ about the Coriseal poisoning and planting the pills in her bag. Holly may never forgive her ex-stepfather. And I mean, what can EJ even do but say, “Oh, sorry. I drugged you and then planted drugs.”

I don’t think he’s going to confirm his guilt. He may just lie and deny to Holly’s face. EJ makes a tense phone call this week, presumably to Rita Lesley (Maggie Carney), tells her to get on George O’Halloran and make sure he puts a lid on the Coronavirus situation. The question is, did EJ make that call before or after Holly chews him a new one at the mansion?

Also, Paulina Price (Jackee Harry) wants Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) to come clean to Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens). This may be about him knowing Lexie was down in the basement room at the mansion. And hopefully Chanel will understand that Johnny was respecting his aunt’s deathbed wish.

I’m so excited that Chanel and Johnny’s daughter is named Olivia Alexandra DiMera, by the way, because that’s two cute and really sweet homages. Arianna Horton (Vico Escorcia) listens in on a disturbing conversation. We’ll see if it is Kate that she’s listening to because of what happens by the end of this week.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Jack & Steve Reconnect

Friday, August 28th on Days of Our Lives. Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford)’s catching up with his brother Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols). They got lots to talk about. Jack may stick around a little longer because he wants to spend time with Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) and do some father-daughter bonding.

And Steve may talk to Jack about Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans), hoping that Gwen buys the hospital. We’ve got EJ grilling his brother Chad about their late father Stefano DiMera‘s (Joseph Mascolo) chess set. And Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) is there for her ex-husband Xander Cook (Paul Telfer).

He’s upset about losing the house, blames himself. He’s also, of course, very upset that Sarah and Victoria are moving in with Brady Black (Eric Martsolf). But so far, you got to give Xander his flowers because he did not lose his temper when Sarah told him. Xander was very polite even though he was demonstrably upset.

Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow) asks Ari for a favor. So, if Kate was the one Ari was eavesdropping on, she might want to keep whatever it was secret from Roman. Marlena gives Belle a special keepsake on Friday. And I wonder if it may somehow tie into the chess set mystery.

DOOL Spoilers: Cat’s Next Move

Then the week of August 31st through September 4th on Days of Our Lives. We’ll see if Cat does what Marlena told her to and alerts Andrew Donovan (Colton Little) to the fact that EJ may know she was ISA because of what she said in Italy.

However, Cat may not want to admit that she broke protocol. Question is, will Marlena tell Andrew? We also now know that Victoria and Xander will be at the father and daughter dance. So, I wonder if it’s going to be offscreen to save Days some money.

Stephanie may regret leaning on Theo when Alex gets upset with her and Joy heads into surgery soon. And if Stephanie’s still acting out, it’s going to be so much harder on Alex. Hopefully, Stephanie’s going to check herself before she wrecks herself and their marriage. Abe picks up the pieces after losing Lexie.

I’m sure Paulina is going to comfort him, but I doubt Abe is going to run right back to Paulina to resume their marriage. It’s messy, but long-term, I do expect they will get remarried since their marriage was nullified when Lexie was declared not dead.

Chad’s debating whether or not to go to Italy. He’s listened to Julie and Jack and, you know, Thomas and Charlotte weighed in on this. Chad says they’re okay with him leaving with Belle to make a short trip to Italy.

But I don’t think it’s a good look for Chad since he didn’t have his kids all summer and now is bailing. We’ll find out if Kate did something else that Roman won’t like and that may be why she needs a favor from Ari.

Days Spoilers: Leo Back to Business

Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) gets back on track investigating the fake designer bags for Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) and that could lead somewhere unexpected when they find the culprit. However, she is going out of town so Leo may have to work on it without her.

Plus, looks like Javi Hernandez (Jacob Martinez) is going to have to approach Leo about a reconciliation because he is giving Javi space and sympathy about his split from Gus (Michael Ocampo). It’s time for campus move-in for Ari, Erin, and Holly.

We may see Tate Black (Leo Howard) feeling a little left out like he was when they were making s’mores and talking about their sophomore year of college. Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) is going to head to Monte Carlo with Gabi as his fiancée.

Obviously, they’re not doing it on location. Look for lots of B-roll footage, and we’ll see if Philip can pull off a Hail Mary to save the family or if it’s going to be a bust and Gabi loses the money she loaned Philip to buy into the game.

Even if he wins big, it’s hard to say it will be big enough. You know, 200 million big seems insane. The following week on September 9th, that’s when we get a new face and we find out who Evelyn Stephenson is playing. I suspect she will be recast Sydney DiMera.
