"Days Of Our Lives" soap recap

In the previous episode, the hospital hosted a magic show and Steve, Kayla, John and Marlena gamely watched. Marlena, however, felt something was off with the magician. Later, the magician asked Kayla and Marlena to be part of his next trick. He put each of them in a box and told the kids not to take their eyes off them. When the lights went out, he disappeared. As if on cue, a nurse gave Steve and John a note saying that the missing body belonged to Orpheus. Steve and John immediately ran to the boxes, only to find them empty.

At the park, Rafe and Hope showed up in full costumes, along with the other Salemites. Soon, Andre approached Hope and quoted Shakespeare to compliment how beautiful she looked. Andre said he’s glad they’re all present. Everyone was in good spirits, especially during the awarding, where JJ was given recognition after being shot in the line of duty. As he went on stage to accept the award, Hope and Rafe walked to the podium. A shocking turn of events then followed: Hope's voice was overheard on the speaker system revealing, “I killed Stefano.” To say that everyone was gutted is an understatement. Hope gasped in horror as she hears her own confession being played in public.
