Salem is once again in turmoil when Tony DiMera suddenly appears with an ambitious deal for the Kiriakis brothers: Xander and Philip.

Titan, already reeling from internal strife, is now in even more chaos when Tony offers the “key to survival” – in exchange for his secret control of the corporation.

For Philip, this offer is like a lifesaver.

He has set up a fake scenario, stubbornly denying that he was attacked by Xander.

If Tony stands by his side, Philip can both maintain his image and strengthen his position in Titan. But Xander is not easily manipulated. He suspects Tony’s deep plot, and is torn between honor and the opportunity to keep Titan out of the hands of others.

In tense scenes, the audience will see Tony smile meaningfully, cleverly presenting “fat bait”. Philip nodded thoughtfully, while Xander frowned, his eyes flashing with caution. The negotiation was like a game of chess, where every word was a psychological blow.

Not only Titan, but Salem was also drawn into the vortex. Sarah – who had just asked for Xander’s forgiveness – was drawn into the battle when she sensed that new secrets were threatening her fragile happiness. Will Xander choose love, or power? And will Tony really win this game, or will he be trapped in his own game?
