Daytime Soap Opera Short Recaps
Recap written by Michele and Cheryl
Brady went to confront Kristen. He told her Sarah told him she used the serum to force Xander to give her Titan. Kristen admitted that she didn’t have a choice because she had to prove herself to the DiMera board since she’s under a microscope. Brady told her everything was about greed, money, and herself to which she said wasn’t true. Kristen said she did it for him. He didn’t understand what she was talking about. She explained that when she had Titan, she would give him Basic Black. He had trouble believing that she asked Xander to hand over Titan so he could control part of it. She said she was doing it for their family and that Rachel wants them to be together. Kristen asked him to consider making their relationship work for Rachel’s sake. Brady said Victor was his family and he wouldn’t Titan under DiMera’s control. He said her dream of wanting their family together wouldn’t happen like this. Kristen asked if they could be together if she didn’t want Titan in exchange for the serum. He said he wasn’t confirming that but he refused to get back together with her if she used the serum the way she was. Kate talked to Philip on the phone and told him that Vivian was arrested. Kate said Vivian didn’t say anything about the letter so their secret was safe. When Xander walked in Kate’s office, she told Philip she would call him back. He told her Philip was keeping him from making the deal with Kristen so he wanted her to put a stop to it. Kate refused to do it and said she supported Philip trying to save his father’s company. Xander said she better change her mind or the soap opera would be history because he would buy every streaming service available and cancel the soap opera. Kate thought that would be a risky move and called his bluff. She suggested that he let Philip run Titan and he did something else. When she refused to help him, he walked out of her office. Philip went to the Kiriakis mansion to see how Maggie was doing since it was her anniversary. When Sarah was nice to him, Philip was surprised that she would be nice to him since he was the reason why she didn’t have the serum. Sarah said she understood why he did it because she didn’t want Xander to give Titan to Kristen. She said he would do anything to get the serum. Philip said that would explain why he tried to kill him.
Philip told Sarah what happened with Xander. Sarah was shocked. When Philip checked the time, he said he had to go. He said he liked her and didn’t want to make things worse for her and Xander, but Xander’s actions were irrational. After they finished talking, Philip left. Kate met up with Philip at the Salem Inn. She told him about what happened with Xander and how he was trying to undermine her. Philip said he did the same thing to him. He told her what Xander did to him and how he told Sarah about it. Xander went home to see Sarah. She told him that Philip was there and told her how he tried to kill him. Xander said Philip was exaggerating to which Sarah said she knew he held the gun and pulled the trigger. Xander said Philip asked for it. Sarah said the violence had to stop because they couldn’t live this way. She said her walking again wasn’t worth throwing his life away. Brady showed up at the mansion and said he tried to reason with Kristen. Kristen spoke to Stefano’s portrait and thought he would have been proud of Brady for giving her an ultimatum of choosing between love and money. She said she hoped she did the right thing. Xander thanked Brady for trying to reason with Kristen and thought she turned him down. Brady said she didn’t and gave Sarah the serum. At the pub, Steve and Roman talked about Vivian getting arrested. While they were talking, they talked about Clyde’s escape. Steve said Clyde called Chad and told him something. He thought Chad was hiding something and probably thought he could handle Clyde. Roman didn’t think Clyde would help Chad. Steve said he might have if something was in it for him. They thought Chad and Clyde made a deal. Chad met EJ at the police station. He asked EJ why the charges against Cat weren’t dropped. EJ said he didn’t understand why Chad would want to do that after what she did. He told EJ that Clyde said he would tell him where Abby’s remains were if the charges against Cat were dropped. EJ asked why he would help Cat. Chad said he didn’t want to help her. He wanted her to suffer. EJ asked why he wanted the charges dropped. He thought Cat should pay for what she did. Chad said he wanted here to pay, but he didn’t want her blood on his hands and didn’t want her to die. He said he was going to make Clyde think he was helping him, but was going to make sure he didn’t get Cat. EJ didn’t like the plan and thought it was dangerous. Chad agreed that it was dangerous, but he had to do it. EJ said Paulina was going to be upset with him, but the charges were dropped and Cat was released. He warned Chad to be careful.
