Days of our Lives TWIST: Kristen Manipulates Brady into Her Bed Through Deception?

Days of Our Lives suggests Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) was really taken aback when Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) wormed her way into moving into his new apartment with him and their daughter, Rachel Black (Alice Halsey). But is Kristen going to try one of her old schemes to get Brady into bed while she’s staying in his place?

And we know that Kristen is a clever woman because she already convinced Brady that it’s best for Rachel if they all move in together at his new apartment. I suspect this is another of Kristen’s schemes. And I think it’s about getting rid of Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey).

Kristen DiMera’s Master Plan for a United Front on Days of Our Lives

So, we all saw how badly Brady, Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall), and Belle Black (Martha Madison) reacted when they heard Kristen signed Rachel out of Bayview for good. Belle warned her that Rachel could wind up in juvie instead of getting the help she needs because of Kristen’s stunt. Belle said this could affect the criminal case.

Kristen is adamant that her daughter is better off at home, living a normal tween life, back in school, and all that. She hopes that the judge is going to see that Rachel has been reformed. Later, Kristen told Brady she thinks the best route for their family is to present a united front, live under the same roof. And that it’ll work out. Then Kristen promised joint custody in return on Days of our Lives.

After threatening to take her to court, Brady did cave, but he also insisted that Kristen can only stay at his place for a month. He said they have to sit down with Rachel and make it clear just because Kristen’s going to be living there with her and Brady, they are not reuniting romantically.

Now, we all know that Kristen cannot stand the fact that Brady is dating Sarah, the woman who kidnapped Rachel as a toddler. Kristen has zero tolerance for Brady dating anybody but her. I think that is a more accurate statement.

The Battle Over Rachel Black’s Loyalty and Sarah Horton on DOOL

Rachel used to like Sarah until she figured out Brady was interested in her. Then she found out about the kidnapping. Rachel tried to hurt Sarah with the pistachios. Dr. Gregory specifically advised Brady that he cannot allow Rachel to interfere in his romantic and dating life. But now we’re going to have Kristen doing it.

Of course, I’ll admit Rachel wasn’t getting optimal therapy at Bayview, at least not at first, because she got mixed up with Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) and all of her shenanigans. That’s one reason that Kristen and Brady both had second thoughts about Bayview and considered moving Rachel to a different facility. But there wasn’t anything as close as Bayview.

So Brady left Rachel there. But told Dr. Gregory to keep a closer eye and keep her away from Sophia. That’s one positive of Rachel living with her parents—she is away from Sophia’s influence. But Rachel may wind up back in Bayview after the judge makes a ruling in the shooting case. For the time being, Rachel is going to be with her mom and dad.

Is Kristen Following the DiMera Legacy of Fixation on Days?

Kristen feels like this is a big win because, of course, she cannot get over her fixation on Brady. But the problem is she’s only got four weeks to pull something off. As much as Kristen griped about Stefano DiMera (Joseph Mascolo) and the DiMeras and people being wicked and EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) being terrible, let’s be real: Kristen is just as fixated on Brady as Stefano was on Marlena or that EJ was on Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney).

I’m worried Kristen already has something diabolical in mind for when she moves in with Brady. If you recall the winter promo, Kristen and Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) were toasting to going after what they want. That toast may come soon because this week Gwen gets Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) in her bed and Kristen got Brady to agree to cohabitate with her. Gwen and Kristen may be clinking their glasses this week.

If you remember, Brady initially fell really hard for Kristen. But then all her evil deeds sent him packing. Their original split was back, I think 2013 or 2014, because Brady couldn’t deal with Kristen’s extreme deceptions and her crimes that were tied to a revenge plot against his dad, John Black (Drake Hogestyn), and stepmom, Marlena.

A Dark History: From Stolen Embryos to Identity Theft on Days of Our Lives

The whole family was also horrified when Kristen pretended to be Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) and drugged and sexually assaulted Eric Brady (Greg Vaughan) back when he was a priest. And don’t forget, in 2015, Kristen stole Tate Black (Leo Howard) as an embryo out of Theresa Donovan’s (Emily O’Brien) womb and carried him herself. Kristen couldn’t stand the fact that Theresa was carrying Brady’s baby. Thankfully, Tate was finally returned to Theresa.

Years later, Kristen wore a Nicole Walker lookalike mask to trick Brady into sleeping with her. That’s how Kristen got pregnant with Rachel back in 2020. Kristen had gone and gotten infertility treatments from Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) to make it happen and then used the mask. The bottom line is, Brady wouldn’t have engaged with any of that without the mask. Rachel wouldn’t even be around.

Obviously, from Kristen’s history, she’s not opposed to playing dirty, using deception. And really using any means necessary when it comes to getting Brady back. As Marlena reminded Brady, you give Kristen an inch, she will take a mile. Brady better watch his back, his front, and the lock on his bedroom door.

Will Kristen Use the Sarah Horton Mask to Trick Brady on DOOL?

Don’t forget, we know that Kristen has a Sarah Horton mask already. Kristen wore it when she broke up with Xander and then shoved Sarah into a trunk and kidnapped her off to DiMera Island where she kept her drugged. Brady needs to be on the lookout for any sort of shenanigan.

Kristen could also try drugging Brady to get him into the sack like she did with his brother Eric. The bottom line is Sarah is not safe with Kristen plotting. And Brady really isn’t safe either. He needs to watch out. I wouldn’t put it past Kristen to kidnap Sarah to keep her from Brady.

Back in December, our leaker told us that Sarah was going to be kidnapped and that Kristen was there as well. When the crypt crew kidnappings happened, we assumed that was what it meant, but it turned out not to include Sarah. We get these leaks 6 to 9 months before we see the episodes on air, so sometimes the timing is off or the events don’t happen in the exact sequence that we get them from the leaker.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: The Future for Brady and Sarah

Even though Kristen’s kidnapping happened separately, we could still see Sarah kidnapped. Brady did what Dr. Gregory advised and made it clear to Kristen they’re not getting back together. Kristen acted all offended and insisted that’s the last thing on her mind, saying she didn’t even want to be with him.

We all know she’s lying. We also know from our leaker that Brady and Sarah do start a relationship and Brady proposes to Sarah. That’s when she decides to take a step back. And from there we’re told that Xander and Sarah do get on the road to reconciliation.

In the meantime, Brady has now been essentially blackmailed into agreeing to let Kristen live with him and Rachel. Marlena already warned him, “Give her an inch, she’ll take a mile.” Kristen’s got a whole bedroom in his new apartment. She may take more than a mile.

This is a really bad move. He and Sarah are getting closer. And we all know Kristen is going to interfere. Knowing she only has four weeks to do it, obviously, one of the fastest ways for Kristen to get what she wants is to slither her way into Brady’s bed one way or another.
