Gabi’s Got a Gun, Rafe’s Got His Memory Back, and EJ’s Got Some Explaining to Do 

Things got wild in Salem on today’s Days of Our Lives! Gabi took the direct approach with EJ—by pointing a gun in his face. Meanwhile, Rafe finally remembered who he is, Joy found herself in a sticky situation, and Stephanie couldn’t hide her nervous energy around Alex. Let’s break it all down in this full episode recap of DOOL.

Trouble in Titan: Stephanie’s Tension Hits a New High

The drama at Titan is already brewing as Alex and Joy celebrate their new gigs, while Stephanie looks like she’d rather be anywhere else. The woman is clearly spiraling, but she insists that she’s “fine.” We all know what that means.

When Alex and Joy offer to quit for her sake, she plays it off like they’re being ridiculous, but deep down, she’s rattled. Joy, on the other hand, is visibly uneasy about how this is all playing out—especially considering she had her heart set on working for Body and Soul. But hey, a paycheck’s a paycheck, right?

Gabi Takes Drastic Measures—And a Firearm

Gabi is at her wits’ end trying to find Rafe, and she’s done playing nice. When JJ warns her to be careful, she gives him a sweet little promise that she absolutely has no intention of keeping. The second he leaves, she grabs Rafe’s gun. Subtle, Gabi. Very subtle.

Meanwhile, JJ has a run-in with Joy, who’s looking like she’s about to faint. Turns out, she thinks she might be pregnant. And in true Salem fashion, the father is very much taken. Classic.

Savannah Spills Some Days Dirt to Shawn

Shawn, always on the case, pays a visit to Savannah, the woman who got up close and personal with the fake Rafe. She’s less than helpful—because, shocker, her relationship with “Rafe” was more physical than intellectual.

Just as Shawn is leaving, Joy arrives, and Savannah fangirls all over her, raving about her storyline on Body and Soul. Joy barely manages a polite nod before bolting. Nothing to see here, folks!

EJ Realizes He’s in Way Over His Head

EJ is in his usual spot, talking to Stefano’s portrait as if it’s going to solve all his problems. Rita walks in just in time to hear him lament about how they’ve accidentally fried Rafe’s brain. Oh, and that pesky DNA test Gabi ran? It only complicates things further.

Just as he’s trying to process all this mess, Gabi storms in, gun in hand, and she is not in the mood for EJ’s usual smirking nonsense. She demands answers about Rafe, and EJ does his best to talk her down, but Gabi? She is done listening.

Rafe Gets His Memory Back—and a Kiss

Over at the station, Jada is grilling who she thinks is Arnold, only for Rafe to suddenly start rattling off details about their past. The first time they met, their first kiss, his proposal—it all comes rushing back. And Jada? She’s reeling.

When Shawn bursts in to announce that they definitely caught Arnold, Jada realizes Rafe is telling the truth. Then she gets the confirmation text she’s been waiting for: It’s really Rafe.

Rafe stands up, eyes locked on Jada. “I love you.” And just like that, they’re kissing.

Gabi Almost Shoots EJ—But JJ Saves the Day

Back at the DiMera mansion, things are reaching a boiling point. Gabi is counting down, ready to shoot, when JJ bursts in with an update: Rafe is alive and at the police station. Gabi lowers the gun, stunned. EJ, meanwhile, probably needs a stiff drink.

And with that, another wild day in Salem comes to a close. But don’t worry—there’s plenty more drama coming up next time on Days of Our Lives!
