‘Days of Our Lives’ (DOOL) spoilers indicate that David’s birthday party is going to be one to remember, Gabi DiMera (Camila Banus) says goodbye, Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) has a question, and there’s news on Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes). Also, Lani Price (Sal Stowers) gets a surprise. If you missed it, let’s get to your ‘Days of Our Lives’ recap.
‘Days of Our Lives’ spoilers: She crazy
Ari Horton (Harper and Sydnee Udell) is alone in the living room of the Hernandez home when Jordan Ridgeway (Chrishell Hartley) walks in. She’s getting some last-minute preparations for the party together, something she’d mentioned being nervous about earlier. She’d told Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) about a traumatic experience she had as a child over a baking mistake. That almost happens again. Sort of…
While finishing up stuff later, she realizes that a cupcake is missing. Specifically, Ciara’s. She panics and asks if Ari ate it. To her relief, Ari says no. However, Jordan’s panic goes into overdrive when she learns Ari gave the cupcake to David. Poor Ari is confused and clearly freaked out, but Jordan calms down some after realizing that David’s fast asleep and didn’t eat it. She tries to smooth things over with Ari, but the whole rest of the time the kid is giving her massive epic side eye. She’s clearly thinking that Jordan’s a nut case.

‘Days of Our Lives’ spoilers: The party’s on
The rest of the party is going better. Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson), Ciara Brady (Victoria Konefal), and Rafe are all there to celebrate. Ben and Ciara present the toy chest, which Jordan thinks is great. They are, so far, managing to get along pretty well considering. Ben even marks the occasion by taking a photo with his nephew and promising to always look out for him. We can’t tell if Jordan’s disturbed by that statement, or unexpectedly touched.
Soon, Ari has to leave so Sonny Kiriakis (Freddie Smith) and Will Horton (Chandler Massey) can take her to an appointment. This is where Jordan asks if anyone is ready for cupcakes. She thinks Ciara’s going to love them.
‘Days of Our Lives’ spoilers: Respect
Before leaving for Stefan DiMera’s funeral and picking up Ari, Sonny and Will are discussing the fact Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) didn’t spend the night in his room. They are obviously not thrilled by that and make some comments to Brady about this situation with Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk). Eric swears he just fell asleep watching a movie and asks that they show Kristen the respect a guest and the mother of his child deserves. They are properly chastised and agree. They even end up apologizing to Kristen, who’d heard some of what they said.
‘Days of Our Lives’ spoilers: Saying goodbye
Meanwhile, Gabi DiMera is preparing to say her final goodbyes to Stefan. She is shocked when she hears him and turns to see him standing there. She is thrilled and assumes Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (William Utay) worked some magic.
Unfortunately for her, this is not real. Stefan tells her he’s dead and just didn’t want to leave yet. Gabi is once again devastated. She more than once promises that he’s going to get the justice that he deserves, even though she won’t say what that will be. Stefan asks her, but she says that he’ll see.
‘Days of Our Lives’ spoilers: The funeral
The actual funeral itself is a small affair. It’s Gabi, Lani, Eli Grant (Lamon Archey), Sonny, Will, Ben, Ciara, and Rafe. Gabi is grateful to them all for coming, although she’s giving Lani occasional death glares. She also has a brief fantasy of tossing Lani into the ground. She’s snapped out of that by being asked what she wants them to see.
She explains she’d like them each to place a flower on Stefan’s casket, which they all comply with. Ben makes a point of letting Gabi know how much he liked Stefan, and how Stefan was good to him.
A late guest arrives after the others leave—Kristen. She’s accompanied by Brady. She’d wanted to pay her respects. She laments not getting to know Stefan better, and says that from what she’s heard, he was a true DiMera—hard on the outside, broken and vulnerable inside. She promises not to forget him.
‘Days of Our Lives’ spoilers: Good news
Back at the hospital, Julie’s procedure was a success. Gabi is glad to know Stefan’s heart will live on, and the family is glad that there were no other complications. Eli and Lani go straight there from the funeral, as does Gabi. She wanted to know how everything was going.
‘Days of Our Lives’ spoilers: Sweet revenge
It doesn’t take very long to learn what Gabi’s revenge will be. In the wake of the good news about Julie, Eli leaves her and Gabi alone while he goes to visit with Julie. Gabi tells Lani that she is looking forward to the wedding, which surprises Lani. Technically, Gabi wasn’t invited. They didn’t think she’d want to be there. Gabi begs to differ. She won’t miss it, because she can’t wait to see the look on Eli’s face when Lani leaves him at the altar. Can we say, “hard core?”
‘Days of Our Lives’ spoilers: The proposal
Also today, Jack proposes to Jennifer in his room at the Salem Inn. He’d snuck off for a while that morning to get a scone for her. Inside, he hides an engagement ring, which Jennifer happily accepts. He apologizes for it not being more of a grand thing, but he’s tired of that. He just wants to be engaged. Jennifer agrees.
