While Rachel believes Johnny pulled the trigger, Johnny insists he’s innocent.

Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) is stepping deeper into dangerous territory as she’s called upon for a secret ISA mission, reportedly pushed forward by Shane Donovan (Charles Shaughnessy). While her dinner date with Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) begins innocently enough, the weight of her deception looms large.

Chad, still recovering from past betrayals, is unaware that the woman he’s falling for may be lying to his face once again. How long can Cat hide the truth—and will Chad forgive her when it all unravels?

 Stephanie Doubts Xander, Grills Philip for the Truth

Over in the Kiriakis orbit, Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) is deeply skeptical of Xander Kiriakis’ (Paul Telfer) innocence and starts digging. She corners Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier), demanding answers about a suspect story he’s been peddling.

Though Philip is haunted by dreams of Xander attacking him, he tries to keep the peace—but Stephanie’s intuition tells her that much more lies beneath the surface. The question is, how far will she go to uncover the truth?

 Custody Chaos: Xander & Sarah’s Battle Over Baby Victoria Escalates

However, just as one couple says “I do,” another faces turmoil. Tate Black (Leo Howard) begins to question his role in the pending adoption of Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) baby. During an emotional conversation with Shane, Tate is asked if he’s truly ready to give the child up—and he’s not so sure anymore.

 Paternity Shock: Is Aaron the Real Baby Daddy?

As the adoption storyline unfolds, whispers of a hidden truth gain traction. Could Aaron Greene (Louis Tomeo) be the real father of Sophia’s baby?

While Tate believes he may be the dad, his comments about using protection, coupled with lingering tension between Sophia and Aaron, suggest a major twist could be brewing. If Aaron is indeed the biological father, it would turn the adoption—and Tate’s future—completely upside down.
