The final development in episode 9/22 shook the whole Salem.

Marlena, after many tiring days, haunting dreams and strange omens from Susan, finally received bad news from the doctor.

The audience witnessed her face change color, her eyes lost when hearing the results.

“I knew… from the dream,” Marlena whispered, making everyone shiver.

What is really happening to Marlena? Is it a dangerous disease, or is the ghost of Stefano – who once haunted her – trying to return? That ambiguity not only sows fear, but also opens the door to a new, terrifying storyline.

Meanwhile, in another corner of Salem, Rafe and Sarah unexpectedly find common ground. At first, it was just a casual conversation, but the two gradually got closer, sharing their own pain. Sarah, after so many storms, found a rare peace in Rafe. Rafe, a tough man, softened by her gentleness.

This connection made the audience wonder: is this just a new friendship, or will it soon explode into a shocking love? While Marlena faces danger, Salem witnesses a new relationship that can upset many old bonds.

At the end of the episode, the picture of Salem appeared full of uncertainty: shaky love, lurking conspiracy, mysterious illness and new connections no one expected. Days of Our Lives once again affirmed: in this town, there is not a single moment of peace.
