Days of our Lives spoilers for Monday, August 12, find Ava and Stefan refusing to remain at Connie’s mercy as they decide what to do about their secret.
Presumed Innocent
Stefan (Brandon Barash) and Ava (Tamara Braun) don’t want anyone to know that they slept together while Gabi (Cherie Jimenez — here’s what you need to know) was in prison. They are so determined to keep their shame hush-hush that they discuss it at the office, loud enough for Connie (Julie Dove) to overhear.
Now they’re worried that Connie will spill. Also, they feel terribly guilty. So the illicit onetime lovers decide: They’re going to stop feeling guilty. There. Problem solved, right? What could go wrong now?
Two for the Price of One
Leo (Greg Rikaart) knows he’s Marlena’s (Deidre Hall) favorite patient. Who else is allowed to just drop by and whine whenever they feel like it? (Well, everyone but Leo is too self-centered to know that.) This is why, when he runs into Hattie (Deidre Hall), and she finds him amusing, too, Leo takes it as his due. Look, Dr. Evans loves him even more than ever now!
Writer Woes
Kate (Lauren Koslow) has a new project: She and Abe (James Reynolds) will bring Body & Soul back from the dead and produce it in Salem, with friends and family playing the roles of actors they happen to resemble exactly. But the process is proving to be harder than Kate expected. This frustrates her and leads her to vent to Roman (Josh Taylor). He’s her husband, so he has to listen. But do we?
Odds and Evens
Bonnie (Judi Evans) was excited by the possibility of Hattie being a soap star. Johnny (Carson Boatman) is an aspiring filmmaker. Could Kate and Abe’s new project be the big break both have been looking for? Especially if they work together to get what they both want.
