“Susan Reveals the Truth: Johnny Shot EJ” — A Shocking Twist That Changes Everything | Days of Our Lives Spoilers

Salem is no stranger to secrets, lies, and betrayals—but nothing could have prepared us for the bombshell that Susan Banks just dropped. As the wind howled across the cliffs outside town and the shadows crept longer over the DiMera mansion, Susan—psychic, eccentric, and underestimated—stepped into the spotlight with a revelation so shocking, it may tear the DiMera family apart for good.

Johnny DiMera.

Sweet, rebellious, charming Johnny. The son of EJ DiMera and the grandson of Marlena Evans. The boy who once played peacemaker in family wars now stands accused of something unthinkable.

Susan has revealed the truth: Johnny shot EJ.

Let’s rewind. The shooting of EJ DiMera was already a mystery wrapped in chaos. One moment, EJ stood tall—arrogant and commanding as ever—at the center of the family business. The next, gunfire rang out, blood spilled on DiMera property, and EJ was clinging to life. The suspects were many. Enemies circled like vultures. But no one—no one—suspected Johnny.

Until now.

A Mother’s Instincts

Susan Banks has always been painted as the town’s eccentric—seeing visions, channeling spirits, and talking to Elvis. But for those who know her best, there’s something else that defines her: her instincts. Especially when it comes to family.

After weeks of cryptic visions, unsettling dreams, and fragments of memory she couldn’t quite place, Susan finally found the clarity she needed. It wasn’t through hard evidence or a confession—it was a moment of spiritual awakening. Something clicked. A broken flashback. A single phrase whispered in the wind. A feeling too powerful to ignore.

And then, the truth came roaring forward like a storm: Johnny pulled the trigger.

Why Would Johnny Do It?

This is the question echoing through every hallway in Salem.

The Johnny we know is passionate, emotional, and fiercely loyal. But he’s also impulsive. Reckless. Prone to making decisions in the heat of the moment—and carrying the weight of the DiMera name isn’t easy. There’s darkness in his bloodline, and we’ve seen that darkness surface before.

Was it jealousy? Power? A moment of rage? Or something more sinister—someone manipulating him from behind the scenes?

Whispers are already spreading about the influence of Stefano’s legacy… or worse, the devil that once possessed him. Has something evil reawakened in Johnny’s soul? Could this be a resurgence of his past demonic possession?

Or was it something tragically human?

Did Johnny feel betrayed by EJ—perhaps over family business, or something personal? Did EJ cross a line no son could forgive?

Susan’s vision doesn’t provide motives. Only truth.

The Fallout Begins

The moment Susan revealed her shocking vision to Marlena, chaos erupted.

Marlena, always the calm center in the storm, refused to believe it at first. Her grandson? No. Impossible. But Susan’s eyes held no doubt—and for once, Marlena saw it. Felt it. The truth was undeniable.

Sami Brady, Johnny’s mother and EJ’s ex-wife, has yet to learn what’s been uncovered. But when she does, expect the kind of storm that only Sami can bring. Rage. Denial. Pain. Protective instinct and fury rolled into one.

Meanwhile, EJ—recovering but still fragile—may not even remember the face of the shooter. But when he learns it could be his own son who pulled the trigger, the DiMera empire may crack in half. And EJ is not the kind of man to suffer betrayal quietly.

Johnny himself has gone quiet. Too quiet. He’s missing from his usual haunts. Is he running from the truth? Or preparing for his own side of the story to emerge?

Because if Johnny didn’t shoot EJ… then who is trying to frame him?

What Happens Next

With Susan’s vision out in the open, Salem is on edge. The DiMeras are circling their wagons. Belle has been called in for legal advice. Rafe Hernandez has reopened the case. And Ava Vitali—always lurking near the truth—has been seen snooping around DiMera Enterprises again. Does she know more than she’s letting on?

Kayla and Marlena are trying to protect what’s left of their shattered families, while Chad, still grieving Abby, is now caught between loyalty to EJ and fear for what Johnny’s capable of.

And let’s not forget about Stefan. He’s back—and watching all of this unfold with a cold, calculating eye. Could he use this chaos to seize control of the family throne?

Or… is he the one who planted the seed of betrayal in Johnny’s heart?

The stakes are higher than ever, and the clock is ticking.

A Town on the Brink

This is not just a family feud.

This is Salem teetering on the edge of collapse.

A son may have tried to murder his father. A mother’s visions threaten to expose generations of buried secrets. And at the heart of it all—one truth is now impossible to ignore:

Nothing will ever be the same.

So buckle up, Days of Our Lives fans. Because the storm has only just begun, and no one—no one—in Salem is safe from what comes next.
