It’s a week of surprise comebacks of the happy variety, when two leading ladies return to Salem, according to the Days of our Lives spoilers. Plus, there’s disorder in the court, courtesy of EJ, who pulls a major stunt, and the newly separated Sarah and Xander exchange jealous antics. Here’s your DAYS video preview for the week of August 4-8, 2025.
Who’s on Trial?
Things get personal in court when EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) decides to put Belle’s (Martha Madison) past on trial, particularly her past with him. “Your honor, Miss Black has a major conflict of interest,” he proclaims, as a flashback of him and Belle kissing is displayed on screen.
“This is absurd,” responds a stunned Belle. However, EJ won’t back down. “I call for an immediate mistrial,” he demands. Meanwhile, all Johnny (Carson Boatman) can do is shake his head over what’s transpiring between his father and his aunt.
Who’s Alive?
Anna (Leann Hunley) is back, and she delivers surprising news to Tony (Thaao Penghlis). It’s news she’s heard from Susan (Stacy Haiduk). “She claims your father is alive,” announces Anna. Color Tony stunned…
Surprise Kisses
Meanwhile, Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) walks into The Bistro with Brady (Eric Martsolf) and finds Xander (Paul Telfer) dining with Gabi (Cherie Jimenez). Things intensify when she witnesses Gabi plant a passionate kiss on her estranged husband.
“You can spend time doing whatever you want,” says Sarah, pretending not to be fazed by what she’s seen, although she clearly is. “So can I,” she declares, pulling a surprised Brady in for a kiss. Suddenly, Xander is the one bothered by his estranged wife’s behavior.
Key Testimony
Belle questions Paulina (Jackée Harry), who takes the stand for the prosecution in the case against her son-in-law. “Johnny said his father got what he deserved,” she admits somewhat reluctantly, knowing her testimony isn’t going to help his cause.
Surprise Arrival
Marlena (Deidre Hall) is home alone when she receives a surprise visit. She walks into the living room and finds her daughter waiting for her. “Sami (Alison Sweeney),” she gasps.
Sami turns around with tears in her eyes. “Hi, Mom,” she says, rushing into Marlena’s open arms. “I missed you so much.”
