Welcome, Days of Our Lives fans—prepare yourselves for a jaw-dropping, emotion-charged ride through Salem, because the April 23rd, 2025 episode did not hold back. If you thought things couldn’t get more intense, think again—today’s episode delivers betrayal, heartbreak, and revelations that could shatter everything.
The storm hits early as Susan, trembling with fury, publicly accuses Gabby of a crime that’s haunted Salem: the attempted murder of EJ. Her voice shakes with conviction—“You did it, Gabby!” she screams, unleashing a whirlwind of fury. Gabby, stunned and defensive, lashes back, desperate to shut Susan down. The confrontation isn’t just about words—it’s layered with years of resentment and suspicion.
Susan claims her gut tells her the truth, that she knows Gabby was there, that she knows she’s the one who pulled the trigger. Gabby’s mind flashes back—standing outside the mansion, watching EJ through the glass. She wanted him gone, yes—but was she really capable of pulling that trigger? The memory burns, and with EJ’s foggy recollection, the truth is buried deep… for now.
Gabby, pushed into a corner, turns to Leo and Javi for support. But something shifts. Instead of retreating, she rises. With JJ no longer backing her, Gabby reclaims her power and decides to fight fire with fire. This isn’t just about clearing her name—it’s about reclaiming control. And when Gabby plays to win, she plays hard.
Meanwhile, a hospital fundraiser brings a brief breath of joy—a rare moment of innocence as children laugh and play. Cat’s gentle connection with Thomas and Charlotte captures Chad’s attention. Could this spark something new?
Elsewhere, Stephanie and Alex wrestle with the fallout of Philip’s lies, while Xander’s confrontation with Philip threatens to boil over into something destructive.
Today’s episode was a symphony of chaos, love, and suspense. Salem is spinning… and we’re all watching to see who lands on their feet—and who falls.
