Suspence is brewing in Salem on the Days of Our Lives' storyline, with many residents holding secrets waiting to come out. While Rachel holds a horrific memory that may jeopardize Johnny's future, Sophia is choosing a dangerous path for her baby's adoption.
Meanwhile, Paul and Andrew are ready to dispel the gloomy atmosphere post John's funeral with their long-awaited matrimony. However, as a longtime Days of Our Lives viewer, I believe no good news on the soap happens without a warning for more disasters to come. As such, the wedding will serve as a mild distraction from the upcoming problems threatening to plague Salem.
The previous weeks on Days of Our Lives saw Philip wake up after being brutally assaulted by his half-brother. However, he refused to name Xander as the perpetrator of the ruthless act. On the other hand, the deceased John was given a respectful farewell while Marlena reconnected with all his loved ones.
Meanwhile, a cured Bo paid his respects to John before leaving town again with his wife. Elsewhere, the teenagers graduated, but Sophia and Tate missed the event due to Sophia's false labor alarms. At the same time, EJ and his son reached peace as the former set Johnny free of his obligations.
Elsewhere, Rafe returned to town and stumbled upon Cat, revealing another mystery cooking up on the long-running Peacock daily soap. At the same time, Cat and Shane seemed to share a secret to be revealed in the future storyline.

Days of Our Lives: What setbacks threaten the DiMera family?
EJ DiMera agreed to let Johnny have the freedom to dissociate from him. This has brought in some peace between the father-son duo, as Johnny reconsidered losing another loved one on his own volition. Elsewhere, Marlena heard Rachel scream in her nightmare, asking somebody not to shoot.
The soap's spoilers suggest Marlena will question little Rachel about her dream and get to know about Johnny's gun-wielding secret. As she and Roman question their grandson, Johnny will assure them of being innocent. However, the spoilers hint at Jada placing Johnny under arrest as a stunned EJ looks on.
While who snitched Johnny's intel to the police is as yet unknown, EJ will get the flash drive from Rita and have another look at it. Whether he manages to prove his son's innocence remains to be seen.

As the biggest event of the week, the Black family will celebrate Paul and Andrew's wedding officiated by Eric. Steve and Kayla will also be attendees at the happy union. Whether their marriage leads to other events remains to be seen.
Elsewhere, Tate missed his graduation party for Sophia's false pains. However, he will remain in the dark as Sophia reaches out to Melinda about the baby's adoption. Since the former DA has questionable actions regarding babies in the past, this may be a dangerous route for the yet-to-be-parents to take.
