Days of Our Lives Next 2-Weeks June 23-July 4: EJ’s Desperate Moves, Gwen’s Sneaky Return

Days of Our Lives 2-week spoilers for June 23 – July 4, 2025 see EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) is scrambling, and Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) slithers into town.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Tony Returns & Family Drama Unfolds

Monday, June 23rd. We’ve got Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) in town, and he decides to take care of something himself when he’s back. Anna DiMera (Leann Hunley) is also in town. We’re going to see Tony drinking with his brothers Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) and EJ at the Bistro. And this is before Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) gets in deep trouble with the Salem PD later in the week, at which point I think EJ is probably going to circle back around to his brother Tony looking for some comfort and advice.

Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) is cornered by Shane Donovan (Charles Shaughnessy) on Monday. He’s pressing her on something. Remember, she called him director. Looks like Cat might be some kind of undercover ISA or something or another. Plus, and Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) have a very intriguing conversation this week. And he leaves that conversation with info that he relays to somebody else on a secretive phone call.

Plus, Thomas DiMera (Christopher Cary) has a fun game night with Jack Junior (JJ) Deveraux and his grandparents, Jennifer Horton (Cady McClain) and Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford). I wonder if Chad will miss out on it because he has other plans I’ll tell you about in just a minute. EJ vows to protect Johnny. He wants Rita to get that video card back to him. Looks like EJ needs to sit down and watch all of it. I don’t think he ever looked at everything that Rafe’s secret camera tape.

DOOL Wedding Bells: Paul and Andrew Tie the Knot Amidst Family Secrets

Tuesday, June 24th, Paul Narita (Christopher Sean) and Andrew Donovan (Colton Little) get married with Eric Brady (Greg Vaughan) officiating. Shane and Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) are each a best man for one of the grooms. At the wedding, we’re going to see Patch (Stephen Nichols), Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans), Rachel Black (Alice Halsey) Tate Black (Leo Howard).

They didn’t show Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall), but I’m assuming that she will be there. Shane also asks Tate at the wedding about Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) rapidly approaching due date, and he wants to know how Tate feels about giving the baby up for adoption. And of course, Tate’s having some second thoughts, which has Sophia quite worried.

Belle Black (Martha Madison) gets advice from Carrie Brady (Christie Clark), and it’s about her romance with EJ. You know, she walked away from him because she thought John wouldn’t want it, but then she wound up running over there to EJ Things could take a turn back again, and I think Belle (Martha Madison) may take another step back. Will Horton (Chandler Massey) is there with Belle and Carrie for this conversation. And Rachel spills a huge secret to Marlena. This little devil, Rachel is going to tell Grandma Marlena that she knows who shot Uncle EJ. We’ll see.

Days of Our Lives Drama: Johnny Accused & Titan in Crisis

Wednesday, June 25th. Sophia is desperate for D.A. Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) to find adoptive parents for her and begs Melinda if she can please help her. And again, she’s very worried if they don’t have adoptive parents to just hand the baby off to immediately. Tate will have second thoughts and then Sophia will wind up being a teen mom, which is not her plan for her future at all.

Johnny is completely stunned on Wednesday as Roman Brady (Josh Taylor) and Marlena corner him. And I wonder if they’re going to flat out ask if he shot EJ because Roman may tell Marlena Johnny took the gun. Of course, Marlena heard from Rachel that he had the gun and shot at his dad. And yes, he did have a gun, but whether he fired it, that’s another question.

Titan DiMera is in trouble and Xander Cook (Paul Telfer)’s got a plan to write the ship. It looks like his arrest and Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) being beaten almost to death has some of the stockholders worried and it might have Li Shin (Remington Hoffman) over at DiMera worried as well. Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) questions Philip and I wonder if like Belle she’s going to accuse him of lying for Xander.

Salem Spoilers: Accusations Fly & Alliances Shift

Thursday, June 26th, Belle is grilling EJ. So, I wonder if she overheard Marlena and Rachel talking or Marlena and Roman talking to Johnny and realizes that EJ knows who shot him. Although, I will say to be fair, he’s not gotten back the memories. So, he’s working off watching a little part of the video and then just a couple of flashbacks, but not his full memories recovered.

Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow) senses some trouble as she observes Marlena and Roman on Thursday. Meanwhile, Kate vows to Roman to make Xander pay for hurting Philip. Also, Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) is bickering with Xander about Victoria. Xander says Sarah is insane if she thinks he is going to let her keep him from Victoria. Xander is basically threatening Sarah with bringing up her past mental health issues in court, which is kind of terrible since he and Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston) caused her past mental health issues by pulling that baby swap with Rachel years ago.

Johnny and Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) are swapping some ideas. Remember, they are now working at the same place, Titan. So, this may be a conversation about Gabi Chic or about marketing or those two could be chatting about who they think shot EJ because both of them have been accused of it at this point.

Days of Our Lives Cliffhangers: Betrayal, Deals, and Arrests

Friday, June 27th, Kate gets Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) to agree to something. She may be swapping book publishing duty for Stephanie’s book for him, keeping an eye on Xander and Philip at work and letting her know if there’s anything to worry about. Obviously, Kate is going to try and take Xander down and Alex as an ally would be helpful.

Chad spends an enjoyable evening with Cat Greene and I wonder if that’s why he’s not at family game night because you know sometimes a whole week’s worth of episode on days can be one day. You can always tell by looking at the outfits. Xander and Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) cut a deal on Friday and I think it’s the let’s cover each other’s butts and protect dad’s legacy deal.

Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) offers her roommate Stephanie some advice. And EJ is really worried on Friday about Johnny with good reason because Jada slaps handcuffs on Johnny and accuses him of EJ’s attempted murder on Days of our Lives. And Johnny and EJ both look completely stunned when this happens in Hortontown Square in broad daylight outside of the Salem Inn.

Days of Our Lives July Spoilers: Gwen’s Return & Family Turmoil Intensifies

The week of June 30th through July 4th, Xander and Philip are putting out fires at Titan DiMera triggered by Xander’s arrest. They have to keep the beating and Philip’s fraud from coming out or they could lose control of DiMera. Alex of course is in a tough position and Kate may be prodding him to protect her son and give her info to use to take down Xander despite Philip not wanting it to go that way.

Things get even worse between Sarah and Xander. The stage is set for a fight over Victoria. And just as that heats up and their marriage is, you know, pretty much over functionally right now, we’ve got Xander’s scheming ex Gwen Rizczech coming back into town. We may see some groundwork for it, but her actual return is Monday, July 7th. She still has those big feelings for Xander who’s estranged from his wife and full of rage. So, not a good combination, but it’s a perfect combo for to come back to.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Rachel Blake Returns?

EJ is frantic and intent on protecting Johnny. But no matter what, he is going to deny that his son shot him. The problem is he’s been lying and said he couldn’t remember. So he really doesn’t know if Johnny did this or not. He suspects, but he doesn’t have a memory of it. And he’s been telling the cops that he didn’t have his memories back. So he can’t really clear him. This is going to be complicated. And especially if Rachel is an eyewitness, that’s a problem because, as I said, EJ’s been saying he has no memory. So Rachel could be the one to testify and get Johnny nailed on this attempted murder charge.

Belle isn’t happy with EJ. They’re going to hit another rough patch because he’s going to be upset she’s prosecuting Johnny. Belle’s going to assume he’s lying to cover for his son. Rita has been sent to get that flash drive. We’ll see if it reveals the real shooter or just captured EJ’s reaction and him catching the bullet.

There’s a rumor that Rachel Blake may return, so we’ll see how that goes. And Marlena may get more signs that Jon is thinking about her from the great beyond. And after Andrew and Paul’s wedding, we’re going to see more out oftowners pack their bags and exit Salem. But we’re going to have Tony and Anna for a bit longer.
