On Days of Our Lives, Kristen DiMera convinces Sophia Choi to stage a fake suicide as part of a revenge scheme against EJ and Johnny DiMera. The duo aims to eliminate Johnny while allowing Sophia to escape Salem. This twist unfolds amid May sweeps, with a suicide note set to surface soon.
Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) and Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) team up for revenge on EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) and Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman). Kristen pressures Sophia to kill Johnny, handing her a gun and promising a new life outside Salem after staging her own disappearance. Sophia already maced Johnny and held him at gunpoint in his apartment, though she shows second thoughts as he tries to talk her down this week. Kristen wants Sophia gone to avoid exposure, fearing EJ could extract a confession from her about their plot. This week, Amy Choi shows Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) a suicide note supposedly from Sophia, discovered as Brady and Jada search for her amid suspicions over a supplement swap incident. Sophia blames Johnny for past troubles, including blocking his adoption of Trey with Chanel Dupree DiMera (Raven Bowens). She also targeted Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) and Tate Black (Leo Howard) by drugging them and manipulating Rachel Black (Lorelie Olivia Mote) at Bayview mental hospital. Tate comforts Holly this week, possibly over the bullying and suicide note tied to Sophia's online grudge. The plan draws on DiMera history of faked water deaths, like jumping into the Salem River or using a submarine for escape. Speculation swirls that Kristen might double-cross Sophia to eliminate a loose end, given Sophia's harm to Rachel.
