"Days Of Our Lives" soap recap

Fans are wondering what happens next to Hope, who seemed to have reached her boiling point and killed Stefano with a gun at the DiMera mansion. Rafe arrived just as Hope pulled the trigger for the third time, and asked her, "Oh my God, what have you done?" Hope was shaken and could not believe what she did. She told Rafe that she remembered driving over and memorising the security code, before letting herself in to the room where Stefano was. Hope recapped her conversation with Stefano, and then she said that she saw light. She feared that Stefano’s kin will take their revenge and murder her. Rafe comforted her, and said he’ll help her overcome her predicament. Rafe said they will cover up the murder and make it appear that Stefano has disappeared. Hope, in tears, asked what has happened to her. Rafe said she is a woman who was pushed too far.

“Days Of Our Lives” airs daily at 1 pm on NBC and 8 pm on POP.
