"Days Of Our Lives" soap opera recap

Fans are wondering what happens next on “Days of Our Lives” after Hope went to the DiMera mansion on Thursday and demanded to see Stefano. Prior to this, Hope had an argument with Rafe when she refused to let the police handle the case. Rafe warned her that he won’t be able to protect her if she continues to pursue the issue. Hope didn’t show signs of letting anything and anyone stop her, not even Ciara (Vivian Jovanni).

Failing to convince Hope, Rafe walked out. Later, Rafe appeared at the DiMera residence and talked to Andre (Thaao Penghlis). Rafe asked if Andre knows Dr. Seth Malcolm (Adam Leadbeater), and Andre said that he didn’t. Rafe told him that the doctor was recently killed. Andre, knowing that Hope blames Stefano for what happened to Bo, wondered if she sent Rafe. Before leaving, Rafe said he hopes Andre is not hiding evidence about Seth Malcolm.

Meanwhile, Steve called Hope to tell her about some terrible news, but Hope cut him off, saying, "Now's not a good time, sorry." Determined, Steve went to Hope’s house and screamed that she needed to hear his story. Hope did not open the door, as she was still focused on how to prove that Stefano is involved in Bo’s kidnapping. Steve gave up and went off.

Later, a breathless Ciara appears, and told Hope that she had a nightmare about the kidnapping. Hope calmed Ciara down and gave an assurance that things will work out. After Ciara went back to sleep, Hope left the house, a gun on her hand.

Thursday’s episode of “DOOL” also showed Chad lying to his brother and father about how much Belle (Martha Madison) knows regarding the money and Sami’s (Alison Sweeney) whereabouts.

“Days Of Our Lives” airs daily at 1 pm on NBC and 8 pm on POP. Stay tuned for more “DOOL” spoilers.
