Paulina Ignores Chanel and Throws a Baby Shower!
Despite Chanel (Raven Bowens) explicitly telling Paulina (Jackee Harry) that she didn’t want a baby shower—or a big fuss made over her—a baby shower is coming anyway!
Paulina went completely against her daughter’s wishes by planning a surprise celebration, which means the guests are gathering, the gifts are coming, and the laughter is flowing. But is that all? While Chanel is caught off-guard by the surprise party, all the guests are in for a big surprise of their own!
Julie Encourages Marlena
At the same time, Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) takes a moment to encourage Marlena (Deidre Hall). Doc just received some massive news, but she isn’t quite ready for everyone in Salem to find out about it just yet. Does that keep-it-under-wraps plan include Julie? Marlena has been taking Julie into her confidence, so she might just share the bombshell about Dominic. If she does, is that why Julie steps up to give her some much-needed encouragement?
Sydney Slips Up, Johnny Confides in Rafe, and EJ Seeks Solace
Meanwhile, Days of Our Lives spoilers for October 2 tease that Sydney (Sydney Malakeh) makes an unexpected mistake! As for her brother, Johnny (Carson Boatman) has a massive weight pressing down on his mind. Getting tangled up with his dad and the Coriseal situation turned out to be a total mess, and he knows he needs someone to talk to before he implodes. Seeking out a person he can truly trust, Johnny comes clean to Rafe (Galen Gering)!
Elsewhere, EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) also has a lot going on—between his high-stakes business moves and his chaotic personal life. Looking for a safe place to vent, EJ confides in Rita (Maggie Carney). As a trusted DiMera employee, Rita is certainly no stranger to the family’s wild ups and downs, but will EJ’s latest admissions give her more than she bargained for?
