While the Horton household resounded with music, across Salem, the hospital was shrouded in silence. JJ Deveraux stood silently, gazing through the glass of the recovery room where Theo Carver lay unconscious.

Although Theo had been rescued from captivity, he was still unconscious.

For JJ, who had once considered Theo like a younger brother, it was a devastating blow.

When Lani entered, her eyes were filled with both worry and tenderness.

She said nothing, only gently placed her hand on JJ’s shoulder. That silence, however, brought JJ to tears. He confessed his helplessness, that everyone else had been reunited, while he was left with the fear of losing his closest friend. Lani didn’t preach; she simply said something that brought tears to the eyes of DOOL fans: “The important thing is that Theo is still fighting. And you, JJ, don’t forget to fight for yourself.”

This scene is considered one of the most touching moments of the week. It not only reconnects JJ and Lani’s friendship but also opens up the possibility of them growing closer in the future. This plot point has led many fans to believe that the screenwriter is trying to revive the unfinished JJ-Lani romance.

In another development, when the hospital falls silent, JJ sneaks into Theo’s room, holds his hand, and says he will wait until Theo wakes up. No promises, no pleas – just a simple “I’m here.” That image, amidst the cold lights, reminds viewers that Days of Our Lives is not just about intrigue, but also a story about life, loss, and faith in humanity.
