Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers for the week of August 24-28 tease several major developments, including the debut of two newly recast characters whose first scenes are just around the corner.
There will also be a surprising breakthrough during Cat Greene’s (AnnaLynne McCord) latest hypnosis session, while Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) receives some emotional final words from Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford) through a letter she left behind.
DOOL’s new weekly preview begins with Chanel Dupree DiMera (Raven Bowens) and Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) enjoying precious time with their newborn daughter, so the couple will continue celebrating this joyful new chapter in their lives.
Chad DiMera (Conner Floyd) will soon have his own reason to smile now that his children have finished their summer stay in Boston and are finally returning home.
Days spoilers reveal that Cole Gersmeyer will make his first appearance as the newly recast Thomas DiMera beginning August 25.
On that very same day, Pippa Blaylock will also officially step into the role of the recast Charlotte DiMera.
Thomas and Charlotte are shown warmly embracing Chad in the latest Days weekly promo, which means viewers can expect an emotional and affectionate family reunion.
Meanwhile, in the town square, Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) will unexpectedly run into Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) and Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart), leading to a somewhat uncomfortable request.
After being deeply concerned about Gwen when news surfaced that she had disappeared, Jack will now ask whether he can finally give his daughter a hug.
With Jack relieved to know that Gwen is alive and safe, Days spoilers suggest he will be eager to express how much he still cares about her.
Gwen and Jack have been attempting to repair their strained father-daughter relationship, so she will likely accept his request and allow herself to enjoy a small but meaningful moment of closeness with him.
Elsewhere, Stephanie Kiriakis (Abigail Klein) will once again find herself arguing with Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson), ultimately insisting that the two of them cannot continue living this way.
Her words will leave Alex confused and concerned about exactly what Stephanie means, prompting him to wonder whether she is suggesting they should bring their marriage to an end.
During another hypnosis appointment, Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) will guide Cat through her memories and help her uncover an important moment connected to the time she spent at the clinic with EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel).
Whatever Cat suddenly remembers is certain to leave her shaken and could change the way she views everything that happened there.
Over at the DiMera mansion, EJ will be busy issuing instructions over the phone as he tries to ensure George O’Halloran (Michael Ross) remains silent about everything involving the Coriseal situation.
Finally, Theo Carver will open a letter written by Lexie before her death, giving him the chance to read the final message his mother ever intended for him.
As Lexie’s letter delivers one last loving goodbye along with some deeply personal advice, Abe Carver (James Reynolds) will remain by Theo’s side and offer support through the painful moment.
Days of Our Lives spoilers indicate that Theo and Abe will both struggle with the grief stirred up by this emotional reminder of Lexie, but her final letter may also provide them with some comfort and help make the loss a little easier to carry.
