Salem is bracing itself for an utterly heartbreaking spectacle, a family tragedy that will change everything! EJ DiMera has nowhere left to run as he faces the most haunting truth: Johnny, his own flesh and blood, is the one who pulled the trigger. EJ’s last fragile bond is on the brink of complete annihilation, and there’s nothing that can stop this brutal truth from emerging!
THE TRUTH EJ CAN’T ESCAPE: AT HIS OWN SON’S HANDS?!
EJ’s worst nightmares are now his agonizing reality! He distinctly remembers Johnny holding the gun on that fateful night. Adding to the torment, Rachel Black is haunted by terrifying visions of seeing Johnny with the gun. And Johnny himself? He knows he had the gun that night! Three pieces of a devastating puzzle are clicking into place, forcing EJ to confront the horrifying question: is his own son truly capable of attempting to murder him? The sheer internal torment EJ faces will tear at his very soul as he’s forced to accept this unbearable reality!
JOHNNY’S SILENCE & KRISTEN’S SICK BARGAIN: A POISONED FAMILY!
This secret has been poisoning the DiMera family from the inside out! Johnny’s unsettling silence towards EJ only deepens the suspicion and a father’s burgeoning heartbreak. And what’s even more depraved? Kristen DiMera knew the truth all along but chose to make a “deal to keep quiet” – and in doing so, “traumatize her daughter,” Rachel! Kristen’s cold, calculating cruelty has turned this family into a venomous web of lies and betrayal, leaving Rachel trapped in her own terrifying fear!
THE WRECKAGE: WHOSE LIFE WILL BE DESTROYED NEXT?
The truth is closing in, and no one is safe! EJ has decided this confrontation will happen “sooner” rather than later, pushing everything to a breaking point. When Brady Black approaches EJ with what he’s learned about the night of the shooting, the walls are truly caving in. “An arrest is coming within the next few weeks” and a “trial in EJ’s shooting this summer” signal an unprecedented legal and emotional storm. The bond between father and son is about to shatter irreversibly, leaving behind emotional wreckage for the entire DiMera family.
