This week’s Salem opens with an earthquake in the Hernandez family: Javi Hernandez – who is usually quiet and affectionate – suddenly turns to suspect the person he trusts the most: Gabi Hernandez.

Not a light suspicion, but a direct, dramatic interrogation, leaving the audience frozen.

In the series of spoiler photos, Javi is seen with a stiff face, jaw clenched, asking Gabi: “What are you hiding from me?”.

That moment shows that the two are no longer on the same side.

The cause of the explosion: Javi believes that Gabi has interfered – or hidden important information – related to his relationship with Leo.

Gabi, who is a cunning character, this time does not take the initiative. Her eyes show confusion, as if facing something bigger than what Javi knows. That was also the detail that made people question: Is Gabi involved in Kristen’s kidnapping?

The atmosphere became tense: Gabi tried to reassure, Javi still did not believe. At times, Javi even turned away in anger, while Gabi paused as if considering whether to keep it a secret or tell it all.

The drama became more intense when Leo was also dragged into the vortex. Leo – who is in a complicated relationship with Javi – was constantly mentioned as an important link. Some people said Leo was innocent, but others said that Leo knew something that no one expected… and Gabi was just trying to prevent Javi from finding out.

This episode reminded viewers of the many times Gabi played tricks, but this time the vibe was very different: Gabi did not play the role of an active villain, but rather someone who was keeping a secret bigger than herself.
