While DiMera is still reeling from Peter’s death, Kristen DiMera unexpectedly reappears – and as always, she doesn’t come to bring peace.

Kristen receives information about a secret in Peter’s medical records that could reverse the situation… or bury the entire family.

In a tense scene, she confronts EJ in his office, her voice trembling but her eyes defiant: “If you do this, you won’t just kill Peter – you’ll kill yourself.”

EJ snarls: “Sometimes someone has to fall for DiMera to survive.”

Kristen is torn between morality and loyalty. She knows Peter made mistakes, but deep down, he is still the man who saved her life. As everyone prepares to send Peter “to the afterlife,” Kristen secretly sneaks into the hospital, removes the real records from the safe, and replaces them with fake documents.

The final scene leaves viewers breathless: Kristen stands in the hallway, holding the file in her hand, whispering, “If they knew what I did tonight… I would be everyone’s enemy.” Did she save Peter to atone for her past mistakes, or to use him for a new scheme? That question sets the stage for the entire drama that follows.
