EJ DiMera – the powerful, always-cool man – finally drops his mask.

In the new episode, he reveals a “troublesome news” that causes the entire DiMera family to have an emergency meeting at night.

The opening scene has a yellow light shining on EJ’s face. He stands in front of a large dining table, everyone waiting in silence.

His voice rings out: “There’s something you need to know… and it will change everything.”

The atmosphere freezes.

EJ admits that a major family business deal is tied to a secret organization. If exposed, the entire DiMera empire could collapse, even leading to criminal charges. The first to stand up is Tony – shouting: “Are you crazy?!” Meanwhile, Belle can only hold her head, and Gabi throws her wine glass on the floor.

The audience at home also gasps. This may be the first time EJ has truly lost control of the situation. He’s been trying to hide it for weeks, but when things get to a tipping point, he has a choice – to keep quiet or to tell the truth. And he chooses… the truth, even though it could cost him everything.

What’s more haunting is the final detail: after everyone leaves, EJ sits alone, checking his phone to see a text message from an unknown number: “You just did the stupidest thing ever.” Fans are guessing this is the person with the real secret – and EJ’s revelation is just the first layer.

In true Days of Our Lives fashion, this episode turns power into a burden. EJ is at a crossroads – choose family or choose himself. And any wrong move could mean the end of the DiMera empire.
