Multiple DiMeras have been missing for weeks. Tony (Thaao Penghlis) was the first one to disappear, then it was Kristen (Stacy Haiduk), and Chad (Billy Flynn). Then Theo (Tyler Joseph Andrews) and EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel) vanished, so the rest of Salem finally knew that it wasn’t a coincidence.

Kristen was shocked to see her brother, Peter (Dan Gauthier), but Theo is the one who seems to finally realize that Peter might be the culprit. When Peter suddenly has a syringe in his hand and Theo ends up knocked out cold, it would appear that Peter is the kidnapper. Or are looks deceiving? Could someone else be behind what happened and Peter only had a syringe in his pocket from when he was kidnapped?

A feverish Kristen doesn’t want to believe that her brother did all of this, but the evidence is now daming. Chad tries to revive Theo before it’s too late, but it looks like Kristen has her own plan while she is also burning up.

Will Rafe (Galen Gering) and Jada (Elia Cantu) find the DiMeras before things get any worse for them? After all, Rafe was looking for the keys to the crypt, but never actually made it there.

Brady and Marlena come face to face

Brady (Eric Martsolf) might finally be softening toward his own mother when he appears at her door. Belle (Martha Madison) is the one who answers and gives her brother some advice, but will he take it? Marlena (Deidre Hall) is happy to see Brady, but proceeds with caution when they sit down to talk.

Will Brady take Marlena to task again or will he finally listen to her side and why she made the decision that she did? Brady might also want to hear from Marlena why Kristen made the decision she did. Brady has been way too hard on Kristen and might want to listen to a mother’s point of view.

As for Brady’s son, Tate (Leo Howard), he gives Holly (Ashley Puzemis) some bad news when he tells her that he can’t travel to Paris to see her mother. He thinks he is needed in Salem to be with his own family.
