Days of our Lives spoilers for Friday, May 3, end the week with Leo poised to turn two couples’ lives upside down — not to mention the life of an innocent baby.
What’s It Worth To You?
Leo (Greg Rikaart) accepted Sloan’s (Jessica Serfaty) very strong suggestion that he get out of town and live happily ever after with Dimitri (Peter Porte)…somewhere else. But, first, Leo needed money for this brand-new start. After considering and rejecting options to become an influencer and an underwear model, Leo decided EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) would be the logical place to start.
Leo was about to go forth and commit more criminal deeds in the name of love when he got a letter from Dimitri confessing that he’d fallen in love with someone much better for him than Leo in jail, which makes sense. Leo is just a terrible human being. In prison, Dimitri could meet people who didn’t just talk about being bad; they did bad things. Leo looked crestfallen.
But why should being crestfallen keep one from blackmail? So Leo skips over to EJ’s to blab about Jude’s true parentage, just as Eric (Greg Vaughan) buys a clue and asks Sloan if her ex-client is blackmailing her.
Heart to Heart
Meanwhile, Nicole (Arianne Zucker) is whining to Marlena (Deidre Hall) — and likely not paying her for it — about how confuzzled she feels about raising Holly (Ashley Puzemis). But also about her feelings for EJ and Eric. It’s bad enough that Nicole is taking advantage of Marlena as a professional. But she’s also Eric’s mother! This is not appropriate!
It Just Gets Worse
And if listening to Nicole isn’t bad enough, Marlena also has to pretend to be surprised — and supportive — when Maggie (Suzanne Rogers) announces her engagement to Konstantin (John Kapelos). Bet she’s starting to miss her days being in a coma.
