Days of our Lives Spoilers: Kristen Blindsides – Brings a Late DiMera Home?

Days of Our Lives fans know that Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) is gone right now, but she returns to Salem this fall and brings back somebody shocking with her. So, could it be a DiMera thought to be dead or some other stunning return? Knowing Kristen, it honestly could be somebody truly horrifying.

Days of our Lives: Kristen Takes Off

So, let’s dive in. As you know, Kristen DiMera left Salem late this summer to protect her daughter Rachel Black (Lorelei Olivia Mote) from EJ DiMera‘s (Dan Feuerriegel) wrath. Although, let’s be real, EJ DiMera never intended to hurt Rachel. He just wanted to put a scare into Kristen because she tried to kill his son Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman). Crazy Kristen of course blamed EJ for Rachel shooting him because the tween was upset that EJ sent her grandmother Rachel Blake (Roslyn Gentle) away.

And with Kristen bringing somebody back with her, I initially wondered if it might be Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) only because she’s been name dropped a lot lately with Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) and this new guy Mason Whitfield (Brandon Butler). But as far as Kristen knows, Sophia is dead.

Dead DiMera Resurrected   on DOOL

And after Kristen clocked her in the head with a rock, I just doubt Sophia would hang out with her. I have a feeling that we’re going to see Kristen’s big return during November sweeps, which kicks off the last week of October on the 29th. And yeah, Kristen might bring back a dead DiMera with her, or one who’s presumed dead, but she found alive. Or it could be somebody alive but just not seen yet.

So aside from Sophia, the first person that sprung to my mind is Dominic Marino. We know he’s got Stefano DiMera‘s (Joseph Mascolo) ring on his finger and Rita’s loyalty and Dominic bought the Kiriakis mansion and he had Dante Vitali (Franco LoPresti) try to make sure Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) didn’t win at the poker table and that way Philip couldn’t save the mansion. And of course Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) didn’t get the text and went ahead and signed the papers. But Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) and Philip gambled big at the roulette wheel and hopefully they’re still going to be able to save Titan.

We know Dominic’s still in Italy and Kristen might wind up there while she’s on the run. Dominic may introduce himself to Kristen, the sister he’s never met. By the end of this week, Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) gets Dominic’s birth certificate from Bo Brady (Peter Reckell) and Hope Brady (Kristian Alfonso). And it shows Dominic is Stefano’s son. And it looks like he is also going to be Marlena Evans‘s (Deidre Hall) son, which is truly terrible.

Days of our Lives: Kristen Targets EJ

So, I know Kristen would love to see EJ squirm. Dominic may know from Rita Lesley (Maggie Carney) that Kristen and EJ are at odds. While we expect Dominic in Salem soon, November Sweeps makes a lot of sense for his big debut. Given how much Kristen hates EJ right now, there’s no telling what she might do. And I could totally see Kristen making an alliance with Dominic and embracing him as Stefano’s true heir.

And that would absolutely infuriate EJ. But another person Kristen might bring back with her is her nephew Dmitri von Leuschner DiMera (Peter Porte) because he still wants to prove that EJ and Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) were the ones who kidnapped him and held him captive in Alamania. So, Dmitri may offer Kristen protection from EJ because he’s got all his ISA double agent skills, and he’s ruthless.

Kristen Helps Dimitri on Days

Dmitri may ask for Kristen’s help proving what EJ and Gwen did in exchange for keeping her safe. And since Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) and Javi Hernandez (Jacob Martinez) are finally reuniting, it would be terrible timing for Kristen to show back up with Leo’s hunky ex, Dmitri. I think Kristen would make an alliance with absolutely anybody if it would save her from EJ’s wrath. So, there’s also the chance that Kristen brings back her brother Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) with her to Salem.

That wouldn’t be shocking though. But that being said, Kristen has sought Tony out countless times when she’s making a power grab or if she needs backup against the rest of the family. Kristen and Tony could return and take sides in the Dominic versus EJ war that I feel is coming soon. Recently, Sydney DiMera (Sydney Malakeh) mentioned that she saw Tony during fashion week in Milan. The writers often drop little foreshadowing hints.

Kristen Laying Low on DOOL

So, I always pay attention to the offscreen characters that are mentioned. So, Kristen is hiding out over in Italy. She might even be staying with Tony and Anna DiMera (Leann Hunley), hiding out from EJ. On the weird flip side, Kristen may bring back somebody who was presumed dead. Now, we know her brother Peter Blake (Dan Gauthier), who’s an adopted DiMera, died after the Crypt crew kidnappings. Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) snuck into his room and injected Peter and then he flatlined and obviously it looks like Dr. Rolf staged Peter’s death and he probably stuck him in a cryo-pod. That seems like something Dr. Rolf would do on Days of our Lives.

And if you recall, Peter was furious at Kristen for turning against him during the kidnappings. And it was Kristen’s actions that led to Peter being impaled on one of Stefano’s loose bones, and that made him so sick. But before all of that, Kristen and Peter had been really close. So, if Kristen finds out Peter’s in a cryo-pod, she may have Dr. Rolf resurrect her biological brother and hand him over. And then Kristen may bring Peter back to Salem with her for help in taking down EJ. Peter’s insane, but so is Kristen. I mean, so is their mom, Rachel Blake. Hopefully, it’s not Peter.

Days of our Lives: Abigail Back from the Dead

Now, there is another dead DiMera that Kristen might find while she’s on the run. That wouldn’t be quite so scary, but it would be shocking. We’ve all been waiting to find out if Abigail Deveraux DiMera (AnnaLynne McCord) is really dead or alive. Her name was dropped again recently when Chad DiMera (Connor Floyd) and Belle Black (Martha Madison) were talking about Cat Greene‘s (AnnaLynne McCord) fakery. If you remember when Chad and Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) had Abigail’s grave exhumed, there were no remains inside.

That was done partly to help Cat carry out her subterfuge that Clyde Weston (James Read) was making her do. And if you remember, Cat’s brother Mark Greene (Jonah Robinson) faked the DNA test. But since then, Abigail’s remains have never been found. And on Days of Our Lives, that means that person is likely not dead. It is the perfect time for Abigail to come back since Chad is falling for Belle and Cat’s no longer in his life. So, it could be that Kristen finds Abigail while she’s on the run, maybe hidden somewhere by hillbilly Clyde, who as far as we know is still in a coma.

Sophia Returns to Days

And if Kristen returned to Salem with Abigail and reunited her with Chad, that means Chad would probably side with Kristen in a family battle with EJ. It feels like they’ve been hinting around about Abigail’s return for a while. So maybe that’ll manifest.

And while Kristen did seem to have murdered Sophia, the fact that her body was never found is a red flag. So yes, Sophia might return at some point. I don’t think Kristen would be the one to bring her back unless it was to torment EJ’s ex-stepdaughter, Holly. I feel like Sophia is a long shot for the person to come back with Kristen. I’m leaning towards Kristen showing up in town with Dominic because that would be the biggest slap in EJ’s face.

It would be kind of interesting if Kristen and Dominic set up an alternate DiMera family base over at the former Kiriakis mansion. You know, DiMera 2.0. And then they start pulling other DiMeras over to their side. I won’t call it the dark side because EJ is also dark. It feels like they’re going to be two DiMera dark sides and Kristen would definitely be on the darker side of those two. And I think that lands with Dominic. So maybe those two come to town together, which would be truly terrifying.
