While Salem is reeling from a power outage and fire, Stephanie Johnson faces another shock at home.

Since the beginning of the week, viewers have seen her uneasy and evasive when Alex repeatedly asks about the “mysterious relative” she is not ready to reveal.

The climax comes when there is a knock on the door. Stephanie shakily approaches, opens the door… and then freezes.

A familiar voice rings out: “Hello, Steph.”

Viewers immediately raise the question: is Jeremy Horton officially back in Salem? Julie had previously hinted that he would return soon, and it seems that today is the day. If it is Jeremy, this return will be as shocking as any case in town.

Jeremy is not just a relative – he is also a character who has left many marks and conflicts in the past. His arrival will certainly shake up Stephanie’s life, especially in the context of her complicated relationship with Alex. A new man enters the scene, an old love resurfaces – all promising to put Stephanie at the center of a new drama.

Viewers are eagerly waiting: is Jeremy really in Salem, and if so, what secrets will he bring with him? What direction will Stephanie’s life take when the door opens to not only a guest, but also memories and unresolved conflicts?
