In the promo video released at Day of DAYS for Season 60 of Days of our Lives, spoilers show that there are celebrations everywhere. Paulina arrives at Stephanie’s carrying bottles of alcohol saying, “Someone told me that there’s a party. It looks like New Year’s Eve as Jada and Belle start dancing while holding their champagne flutes. Strangely, estranged half-brothers Philip and Xander look like they high-five each other, wow!
Time To Celebrate
We see Eli and Lani with their twins, Carver and Jules, in the party spirit. Even Chad looks happy! “Long may she live,” says Abe as he clinks glasses with someone and we see snippets from the past of Tom and Alice, Brady doing a toast, an excited Marlena, clapping Paulina and Abe as the voice-over celebrates 15,000 episodes and 60 seasons.
“All you really need to know is we tell love stories,” explains Leo as we see Steve and Kayla kiss as well as Sarah and Xander, who are dancing with a Christmas tree in the background! Brady and Ava go in for a kiss too! “Now I get to figure out who I am without Shawn,” says a thoughtful Belle to her mom. “You think I’m sweet, do you?” EJ asks Belle before she throws a drink in his face. But the next thing we see is the two kissing and later falling into bed together.
“Do you want to spend the night,” Gabi asks JJ. He thinks for a second and then says, “Yes.” The next thing we see is a shirtless JJ grab Gabi into a kiss. “I’m dying to kiss you again,” Philip tells Stephanie, which he does as Alex watches helplessly. “You, Stephanie Johnson, are the only one for me,” says an earnest Alex as the two kiss.
“I love you,” Tate tells Holly. “You do,” she asks. “I haven’t felt like this in a really long time,” Leo tells Javi and they kiss. Rafe bursts through a door and says, “Guess what?” Jada answers by showing her finger and announcing, “We’re engaged!” It looks like things are much better between Johnny and Chanel as she tells him, “I still want to have a baby.” He answers, “Let’s have a baby!” She repeats it and they hug.
60 Seasons of Family
We see Marlena with Carrie, Belle and Will, then the Bradys are gathered for a holiday at The Pub, but sadly we see Jack trying to wake Doug and breaking the news to Julie. “No….he can’t be gone,” she cries as Lani takes her in her arms. Eli asks, “Grandma, what can I do?” Julie welcomes Jennifer back and they hug. We see Hope return and lay flowers on her beloved father’s grave, “Oh Daddy, you’ll always be in my heart,” she tells his headstone. “Marie Horton, as I live and breathe,” announces Maggie.
At the Horton home, a returned Ciara manages to open the puzzle box, much to the surprise of Lucas, Jennifer and Shawn. “Let’s just see what’s in this thing,” suggests Ciara.
Jennifer confronts Cat and tells her, “If you had any self-respect you would walk out that door and never come back,” before she slaps her. “Salem University Hospital is going to shut down,” Stephanie tells Alex. Kayla, who is in a hospital bed, tells her daughter, “Tom Horton would just be rolling over in his grave.”
The tone turns somber. “My father is missing,” reveals Brady. “I want to know where my husband is,” Marlena, who has Steve with her, asks Shane. Steve meets with Shane’s son, Andrew. “I’m looking for John,” he tells him. “I don’t know what I’ll do if anything happens to him,” a choked up Marlena says.
60 Seasons of Mystery
A mystery man approaches Julie. “There is someone here,” Ava warns Kristen, who asks, “Who?” At the hospital, Alex tries to stop Bonnie from falling down the elevator shaft but he’s too late. “My wife’s fall wasn’t an accident,” Justin tells JJ and Shawn. Paulina looks shocked.
60 Season of Secrets Finally Revealed
“Just don’t tell Xander,” offers Kate to Sarah, as Philip looks on. “You want me to lie to my husband,” asks Sarah as we see her hugging Xander but looking wary. “That guy’s a rapist,” an indignant Johnny says to Roman. “So is EJ DiMera,” blurts out the Brady patriarch. “You deserve to know where you came from,” says a visibly upset Sami to her son. “The only reason I exist is because my father raped my mother,” spits out an angry Johnny. Next, we see him deck his father with one punch.
Who Shot EJ?
“What are you doing,” asks a worried EJ to a mystery person. A shot rings out! Chad finds his brother on the floor, blood leaking over his shirt. “Don’t keep me in suspense,” insists Paulina. Images of Theresa, Felicity and Melinda fly across the screen. “Brace yourself,” a shirtless Xander tells Sarah while the two are in bed before he adds, “It’s about to get even better.”
Hope is back! And she’s on the couch with Julie. “I can’t believe Bo Brady’s going to walk through that door.” Julie asks, “Still get butterflies?” Hope tells her, “Every time.” See it for yourself in the video below and let us know what you think is happening next in the comments section.
